### Important Information

Daughter of Councillor Bronte and Emily Corduroy, adopted by Fintan Pyren. She is part human-part elf.

**Kalesh Pyren** is one of the main characters in Vlinemare. She is the daughter of Councillor Bronte and Emily Corduroy. She is a defected Neverseen member, and a Telepath, Reviver, Healer, and an All-Seer.

Adopted by Fintan Pyren, she grew up in the Neverseen, learning about, and supporting their cause. When Kalesh accidentally brought Councillor Kenric back to life, she was brought to the Lost Cities, and was assigned to live in Everglen with the Vacker family. As of Annie, she is married to Fitz Vacker.

When Kalesh realized that she was adopted, she defected from the Neverseen, and began helping the Council and the Black Swan. However, before she defected, she yelled at Fintan, asking why he hadn't told her that her father was actually Councillor Bronte. Fintan replied that he hadn't known, and in his rage, he tried to kill the Councillors, specifically Councillor Bronte. he didn't succeed, instead killing Councillor Clarette, devastating her girlfriend, Councillor Zarina.

The name, 'Kalesh' means 'to cause agitation' or 'to cause unrest' by 'devilish' ways. This is often used by the youth in a casual way to signify "mischief". The last name, Pyren, is derived from the word Pyre, which means the "fire that is burned to bring the dead into the afterlife". The name comes from Fintan Pyren.

## **Appearance**

Kalesh Pyren is described as rather pretty, although she neither agrees, nor disagrees. She has 'mossy', hazel-green eyes, and short, sandy brown hair. Her eyes are an anomaly in the elven world, as she got them from her mother, Emily (Last name)'s genes. Many people are shocked when they first see her, as they assume that all elves have blue eyes, with only the exception being Sophie Foster.

## **Personality and Traits**

### **Determined**

Kalesh is very determined to do things her way, whether it is good for the world, or not, it doesn't matter. She was very determined to help the Neverseen, and to make her father proud, when she tried to burn down Everglen.

### **Secretive**

Kalesh is often depicted as secretive, especially while she was still working for the Neverseen. She would often hide what she was actually doing, and disguise it as something else. She also often hides her emotions, and can seem mysterious at times.

### **Feisty**

Kalesh has a snarky side, and is very prominently shown when she is living with the Vacker family. Whenever she gets annoyed, she often resorts to sarcastic, salty comments, making her seem to have a cocky and smart-aleck attitude to the world.

### **Protective**

Kalesh is very protective of people she cares about. This is most prominently displayed when the Council, and the Black Swan tells her that her father isn't a good person, and that she should be better than him. Kalesh refuses to acknowledge this, and instead supports him by asking them what they knew about his personal life, implying that they didn't know him at all.

## **Abilities and Skills**

Kalesh has four abilities, she's a Telepath, Reviver, Healer, and an All-Seer. She is one of the most powerful elves in the Lost Cities, and although it isn't an ability, it is mentioned that Kalesh can feel one emotion, and express an entirely different one. This is shown when she was able to fake cry in front of Councillor Oralie, to convince her that she had changed.

### **Telepath**

Kalesh is able to read minds of other people with ease, and often does it without others permission. She has spied on multiple conversations before for the Neverseen.

### **Reviver**

Kalesh uses this ability to bring Councillor Kenric and Councillor Clarette back to life. At first she believed she had to dream of the person to come back to life, but at the end of Vlinemare she realized she only had to touch someone at the part of their body that connects with them the most.

### **Healer**

Kalesh is able to heal people's wounds with this ability, and she uses this to heal Tiergan when he is shot by his sister Haze, in a fight with the Neverseen.

### **All-Seer**

Kalesh has the ability to predict the future, but it usually happens on accident or in a dream. What happens "by accident," is that her fortune cookies are always right, and she has to be careful with saying things like "This is going to get us all killed!", because it might actually happen. It doesn't happen very often, but she still has to be careful just in case.
