Cadeyrn Trodai

"Helping others is never easy."

## History

The "Angel child" born under a bright starry night was anything as soon as Cadeyrn took his first breath he howled in tormented rage clawing the face of the wet nurse and sinking his teeth into the shoulder of the attending surgeon, at his mother's side. The little child entered this world fighting, thrashing about and causing injury until thrust into the arms of his mother, where he peacefully rested.

When he was presented to the then Raj Tadgh, the child sunk his teeth into his Sire and clawed him, though the adult's thick skin rent one of the newborns claws. As opposed to stopping at this injury the child doubled it's efforts causing the Tadgh to recoil in concern, before noting that his offspring was "made for battle" and so named his Child Cadeyrn.

As a young boy Cadeyrn was an adept with weapons and showed potential in leadership. But it was his mother's calling as a religious figure that had much of an impact on the boy, being chosen to mentor under a war priest that was also a battlefield medic in the Mercanarium, teaching him how to wield both force of arms and the forces of their patrons on the field of battle.

Cadeyrn's service to the Mercanarium wasn't short, nor was it uneventful, being at the head of several small overland skirmishes, and border disputes in the lands of Akere.

## Appearance

Cadeyrn is tall and lean, he's only about as agile as the rest of his race, and is not an exemplar there he is strong and tough beyond many of his kin, and it's reflected in the many scars on his skin and the obvious muscle beneath. He had a head full of blonde hair and steely eyes of silver-gray.

Usually robed in thicker clothing with extra pockets, Cade doesn't dress to impress, he dresses function over form, just like with his adventuring gear.

## Personality

Having been worked his way up through the ranks of the Mercanarium in a short time to what was equivalent to a Lieutenant, it could be said that Cadeyrn is a natural born leader with some training and experience. He's been an adventurer at heart since he was a child always willing to go new places and see new things, but above all that he's bound by a more sacred duty to help others in his travels.

## Loves

Beyond some of the more basic necessities in his life, Cadeyrn enjoys a stout ale and good company, he has a taste for some of the more refined things in life and enjoys them when he can get them, like fine wine and good dining. But beyond that he is a warrior at heart, his adrenaline rush is from leading troops into the middle of battle, being in the middle of it and fighting the good fight.

## Fears

Cadeyrn fears that his life will amount to nothing that all of his duty and leadership will end up pointless. He doesn't fear death beyond the end of his journey, but he fears leading his people to their deaths unnecessarily.

## Hobbies

Adventuring is Cadeyrn's hobby, and the current passion in his life. Traveling he plays games, sings religious songs and prays to pass the time on the road, which seems to go rather quickly all things considered. Otherwise Cadeyrn is a student of warfare, going over tactics and practicing with weapons in the evenings before bed.

## Family

Cadeyrn's father is the Grand Raj Tadgh, and his mother is Maeve who is a free woman. He has a few older and younger sisters. The family is huge beyond that as many of Cadeyrn's aunts are in several Houri giving him several cousins, tying him to most of the Miqo'tei at large.

## Friends

Cadeyrn has many distant friends from his time serving in the Mercanarium, however those he took leave from the Mercanarium are:

Caitlyn, Kyoko, Arthur, Xazzeru and a few others.

## Enemies

While Cadeyrn has a few rivals in the Mercanarium. He really hasn't had enough time to earn enemies.

## Aspirations

Looking forward to building a better world by working in it, and making his mark on it. While he only has mild passing musings about trying challenging a Nunh for their position, he knows from seeing some of them on the field of battle that he is a few years off from making a meaningful challenge.
