Belph'aegor Kyorl'solenurn

*Appeared in chapters*                                            42

Moonless Age Cameo Character

Sponsored by: Pelinore

Drowussu

A Holy Lance who believes the Judicators ignored Shimi'lande's choice of successor.

## Appearance and Personality

The holy lance is a platinum blonde, blue-eyed drowussu wearing standard holy lance armor, and rise a light grey dawmere. His favored weapon is a javelin, in which he uses air foci to boost its throwing range. Belph'aegor believes in justice above all else and is willing to defy the Orders to see it served.

## Biography

Belph'aegor and Thral'lin Kyorl'solenurn make a dramatic appearance during Judicator Kyuusei's announcement of Valla'drielle Val'Kyorl'solenurn being Shimi'lande's successor. He calls for the Judicators to stop their madness, for only Shimi'lande had the right to choose who to follow in her path--one that the holy lances were familiar with. Belph'aegor shouts that the true successor was a one who had trained on the surface with the Order of Serenity, and demands to know why she had not been summoned. Kyuusei responds with the truth that the clan existed in dire times where leaders could be murdered without any resistance, and therefore prompted the Judicators to take measures in order to protect the clan--they do not believe the candidate from the surface would last long in the chaotic underworld, much less lead the clan through the troubling war.

Valla'drielle chooses to step forward and assure the holy lances that she understands their hearts, and offers council to them whenever they need it.

Unbeknownst to the two, Judicators do in fact choose Ill'haresses to succeed the previous one, but the general public does not know this.

However, the holy lance could not stand by and watch the clan fall in disarray at the mad order of the Judicators to jail Dutan'vir and mix blooded members--he decides to free the captured Kyorl'solenurn: his comrade Thra'llin, Lythn, Mal and Woas'ned.

## Commander - Felde Garrison

### Trivia

* Affinity - Fire Sorcery

* Fond of dragons.
* Phobic of dawmeres.
* Drowolath supremacist.

Adira is a mana-specialist serving as the commander of Snadhya'rune's Felde garrison.

## Appearance & Personality

Adira is a buxom female drowolath with merged tainted eyes. She wears her hair in an exceptionally long ponytail, with several prominent bangs. She dresses in an ornate maroon and white outfit with thigh-high boots, evening gloves, and a short cape. Though it cannot fool those with a trained aura sense, she has taken to wearing green contacts matching her original eye colour in attempt to hide her tainted status from a cursory inspection.

She is a haughty and untrusting individual, with an especially intense dislike of being touched. Though she restrains it with a sense of focused pragmatism, she has a cruelly sadistic nature, taking great pleasure in inflicting pain and misery on those who give her both cause and opportunity to do so. On such occasions where she is granted both, her natural affinity and fondness for fire sorcery is gleefully unleashed.

## Biography- Arc III

Adira first appeared as Ariel's wolf-pack launched their assault on Snadhya'rune's tower in Felde. As a signal flare launched by allies of Kel'noz was sighted by members of the garrison, a runner alerted her as she conversed with Shodun.

### Trivia

* Has not been tested for an affinity.
* Lost the tip of his right ear in a training accident.

## Appearance & Personality

Reaper is a male drowolath with a lean build and yellow eyes. He has short red hair left rough and unstyled. His most distinguishing features are an eyepatch and clipped right ear, each the result of separate incidents. He wears the standard white combat attire of a Feldian soldier. His favoured weapon is a short sword.

He is a very laid back and extroverted individual, with an affable demeanor that is adept at making a good impression. Though he has a morbid moniker, it is by his own admission something of an ironic joke, as he is generally carefree and does not hold on to grudges. While firmly loyal to the Nidraa'chal, he is a moderate within the clan, preferring to remain relatively neutral with regards to his leader's more secretive plots and manipulations. Notably, he has opted not to undergo tainting, feeling it allows him to interact amongst the various clans with less suspicion.

Alongside Bargrez, he helps man a set of cannons that unleash a devastating salvo against the Sarghress column.

As the cannon next to him is destroyed, Reaper quickly falls back to another nearby, discharging it point-blank into the golem piloted by Koana.

## Biography - Arc I

Abyte was originally in training to be a warden of the Val'Kyorl'solenurn clan. During the Nidraa'chal War, she was a seal holder set to follow an unnamed warden into battle. She was doing well until her warden made a mistake, launching a particularly strong demon straight into Abyte's chest.

Abyte was tainted from the blow, and afterwards branded a heretic by her clan. They shaved her head, threw her in a dungeon, and prepared her for execution. Starving and close to death from infection, Abyte's brother broke the law of the clan to free Abyte and take her to the Val'Sarghress clan for asylum. She joined the Mae'yukir house as a sealer and was eventually partnered with Tir'ade when he escaped a similar fate.

## Biography - Arc III

When out tilling the fields of Shikomei for the coming spring season, Abyte handed Tir'ade a drink while her mate tried his best to console Shan'naal, who was very worried and gloomy about the prospect of having to raise a light elf child with a pregnant Chirinide in a society that does not accept them. She too wishes to start a family, but worries about the rumors that their children will be corrupted by the taint.

## Notable Quotes

### Trivia

* Nether Sealing

* Former Mae'yukir Sarghress.

## Family

* Crossbow Lady - Mate

Amal'thya is a female Dutan'vir serving as a Warden and sealer in the Kyorl'solenurn military.

## Appearance & Personality

Amal'thya is a tall female drowussu with a muscular build and tainted eyes. Her right eye is fully blind and she has a deep scar running along the left side of her face, the product of a prior injury that nearly killed her. She has long white hair, but shaves the left side of her head so as to leave her scars fully visible. She bears the standard combat armor and facial tattoo of a Kyorl'solenurn Warden. Her favoured weapon is a sealing halberd. More recently, she has taken to wearing the armor of her native clan.

She is a confident and flirtatious individual, possessing a great deal of vanity for her own appearance and having a rather lax view towards personal boundaries. Taking pride in her scars and feeling they enhance her beauty, she displays them openly rather than make any attempt to mask them from view. Fiercely dedicated to her reborn clan, she has come to scorn her former ties to the Sarghress as their anti-Val sentiment became increasingly broad and extreme, turning to the Kyorl'solenurn as a means of opposing them. She has a fondness for perfume and maintains a collection of assorted kinds.

## Biography - Arc III

### Cleansing Infestation

Amal'thya first appeared as the Kyorl'solenurn clan sent a large contingent to purge a growing infestation of demons and Queensbane near the former market district of Klar'bol. Amal'thya operated alongside Dalshen to cut down and seal demons, while others behind them wielded fire to sterilize any remaining potential source of infestation. While initial resistance was negligible, the Kyorl'solenurn force began encountering far stronger demonic entities as they pushed deeper into the infested district. As the Kyorl'solenurn regrouped in the face of this sudden surge of demonic activity, Amal'thya helped her partner to his feet, encouraging him to join her in combating an especially dangerous demon roaming the battlefield.

## Biography

### Nuqrah'shareh Civil War

Cahal is first seen, alongside Chrys'tel, during the latter's foray into the war-torn territory of Nuqrah'shareh. While accompanying a large contingent of Sharen forces escorting her mother, they are met by a Balvhakara force led by Sara that briefs the young Vel on the status of the region. In particular, the growing hunger and unrest, and Balsii's rapidly growing influence. Arriving at the Nuqrah'shareh palace, Zala'ess begins a negotiation with Nega'fanea; in exchange for Sharen support in quelling the unrest, Nega'fanea will support Zala'ess' claim to the throne. Seeing little option, Nega'fanea accepts.

Shortly thereafter, Chrys'tel rides Cahal into combat against the rebels, approaching through the lake unseen to spearhead an assault upon the rebel golems. The attack is a success, and the golems are crippled nearly without loss. Cahal serves their rider well during the bloodier urban battles that follow, and both emerge from the war relatively unscathed.

### Unravel Arc

Following the Puppeteer Incident and the formal peace between the Sharen and Sarghress, Chrys'tel is tasked with locating her sister and bringing her before Zala'ess. She rides Cahal during this hunt, while selecting both Sorn'mal and Nona'brail to accompany her. All attempts to reason with Shinae fall flat, and a battle ensues. Initially gaining an advantage through the element of surprise, Shinae inflicts minor wounds upon Cahal, Baef, and Sorn'mal. However, she makes the mistake of pausing to taunt her sister, and is quickly overwhelmed as the group recovers.

Bloodied and beaten, Shinae rejects a final offer of surrender and takes Nona hostage in attempt to buy herself time. Knowing Shinae to be to injured to get far, and not wanting to risk Nona's life, Chrys'tel and Sorn'mal opt to let her go and track the trail of blood from a distance. Eventually, Shinae releases Nona and continues on alone. Chrys'tel dismounts from Cahal and inspects the end of the blood trail, noting someone must have carried Shinae from the spot.

Dariya'ko is a Beldrobbaen/Sharen colony close to the surface in the mist sea, being used by the Sharen as a training camp for their slave army.

## Structure

Dariya'ko serves the Vel'Sharen as both a foothold in the overworld and a penal colony to send criminals and slaves. It is located immediately south of where Chel'el'Sussoloth would be, in a rocky valley area heavy with mist--the main mode of travel between the upper and lower reaches is by mana-powered lifts. Similar to Machike, Dariya'ko has an underworld half and surface half. Due to its proximity to Chel and Machike, Dariya'ko is subjected to attacks by Sarghress forces.

## Inhabitants

The majority of the penal colony's inhabitants are citizens and criminals from Chel, sent to work for the Vel'Sharen as indentured slaves. Along with the presence of Sharen troops, Earth tribe Black Sun allies of Sarv'swati's patrol the surrounding area and police the slaves. The facility environment is outright oppressive, with some of the slaves formerly being citizens who were falsely led to believe the colony was habitable.

During the district war between the Sharen and Sarghress, Dariya'ko fell under siege by Sarghress forces led by Quain'tana after a group of Highland Raiders sabotaged the penal colony's defenses and freed its slave population.

Drider

## Guardian of Waes'soloth

### Trivia

* Affinity - Shadow Sorcery

* Collects helmets as trophies.
* Pyrophobic.

Banja'pyrex is a maternalistic drider guardian of Waes'soloth.

## Appearance & Personality

Banja'pyrex is a large and imposing figure, befitting her status as a Nel'kasaider-type drider. She has blue eyes and raven hair styled into a side plait. Despite her physical form, she is quite gentle and maternal, a throwback to the older days of the Beldrobbaen. She is especially fond of the domesticated spiders of the Beldrobbaen, treating them much like children. That said, her gentle nature belies a fiercely protective streak, and she can be quite violent should the need arise.

## Biography - Arc II

### Gathering of the Clans, 1114 MA

Banja'pyrex was first seen escorting the carriage of her Ill'haress as Waes'soloth prepared to attend the Sarghress-run gathering of the clans. She inadvertently saved the the demonic remnant of Naal as the latter was pursued by a group of corrupt Sarghress soldiers mugging passerby. Unaware of the demon's nature, she placed herself in front of the Sarghress ruffians and threw her spear into the ground with sufficient force to pierce the stone below.

As Naal escaped, Banja'pyrex grimly stood down while Waes'soloth dealt with the disturbance personally, throwing the soldiers aside with her potent high sorcery. Following the incident, Banja'pyrex continued to guard her lady as the gathering progressed.

## Biography - Arc III

### Mimaneid Ambush

Three years later, Banja'pyrex was serving as an escort for an Alliance delegation traveling to Felde. The delegation came under Mimaneid attack, with the Beldrobbaen representative slain by a warrior of the Kavahini tribe before any could react. Though she attempted to avenge her fallen charge, the killer took to the air and evaded her spear. As the Mimaneid began to overwhelm the delegation, Oiloss'lin opened a nether gate, successfully forcing the attackers to fall back. The threat gone for the time being, Banja'pyrex turned to aid a fellow Beldrobbaen to her feet, the Guard having been thrown from her mount during the skirmish.

Doebrimm'linthel

Doebrimm'linthel

*Underworld location*

The "Cauldron Guide Outpost" is a naturally fortified location whose name comes from its shape; a large bowl or cauldron-like cavern. Doebrimm'linthel has only two entrances, and both are gated with steel doors and heavily guarded. Far removed from other drow settlements, this outpost serves as a waystation for weary travelers to rest in peace, and a landmark on how far one has traveled. The walls of the cavern have many shops carved into it, including inns, restaurants, supply stores and warehouses. Due to its proximity to the remains of a dwarven city, it is not uncommon to see dwarves moving freely there, trading goods to passing drow.

Self-sufficient, Doebrimm'linthel is not under the control of any one Clan and, due to its location and layout, none have tried to invade or take control; it currently serves all Clans well to leave it as a neutral territory.

Cas'nihlus takes Chirinide to see Shimi'lande's body.
