Kalyn Ossyrov is the middle of the three young monarchs, and second of his name. He is a bard who loves to sing and always carries a pair of drumsticks on him. He is not religious and strongly disagrees with the policies his mother, Queen Nakada Ossyrov, and The Arcaenon have set in place. He never had a desire to take the throne but as the potential of becoming ruler looms closer, he has been thinking of the many changes he would love to bring about.

## Description

### Appearance

Kalyn is a thick, muscular half-elf. He is 5'8 with warm beige skin. He has lime green hair, shaved on the sides and back. The top middle section of his hair is styled like a pompadour. He wears a thin gold crown with a cerulean blue jewel in the middle. When he's around the castle and in the gardens, he generally does not wear shoes or a shirt, though he will wear an open vest. He wears cerulean blue harem pants with gold embellishments at the bottom with an emerald green sash as a belt. He has a gold cape with a forest green lining and he has several gold bands around his arms and ankles.

Most of the time when he goes out to the Weeds, he wears a simple t-shirt and shorts with some flip-flops. When he goes on a date in the Weeds, he will wear a short sleeve button up with well-pressed shorts and boat shoes. When he's required to dress up for castle events, he wears a nice pair of slacks, a silk button up shirt with the sleeves rolled up and some wingtip shoes. Depending on the formality of the event, sometimes he has the top two buttons of his shirt undone, other times he will wear a bowtie.

### Personality

Kalyn is generally pretty carefree and easy-going. This is partly because he likes to spend time doing things that bring him joy rather than stress, but he has also felt stuck and powerless in this hierarchical, classist system he finds himself in. Rather than concern himself with things he can't control, he chooses to put everything he has into his music and adventures around Kyrthys. He also has a bit of an impulsive streak. He loves fiercely and intensely which sometimes leads him to make reckless decisions.

## Biography

### Background

Kalyn is the middle triplet born to the Ossyrov family. By the time he was three years old, he knew that he was trans and insisted his parents, siblings, and all of Kyrthys treat him like the boy he knew himself to be, though this proved to be somewhat difficult at times. Although his family has always been supportive of his transition, his mother (Queen Nakada Ossyrov), as well as his sister (Za'rah Ossyrov), occasionally slip up and use women-aligned terms which makes him feel like they will never really see him for who he truly is. This, along with their vast difference in opinion on Kyrthys is what makes their relationship so contentious. His mother has always kept a watchful eye over him as he was the one most likely to disobey the rules

### Season 1

In 101 - Change of Fate, Kalyn chooses Qui'ara Lockley as his Champion to go into the Wildes.

### Season 2

Not much is heard from Kalyn during Season 2, as the party remains in the Wildes.

### One Shots

During a two week break from Season 2 of the main campaign, we followed Kalyn alongside Julian Centurion (disguised as Mysha Ossyrov) as they continued life in Kyrthys after the departure of the Champions.

###### Kingpins of Kyrthys, pt. 1

**This section contains spoilers - proceed with caution!**
Kalyn and "Mysha" get sent on a mission by their mother to retrieve an Ossyrov family relic from a shady location in the Manufacturing District. They are given an envelope with payment to be given to the other person. Prior to meeting their contact, they run into Corvin Barrick who asks if they have heard from Gideon or anyone else they sent out to the Wildes. Their formality with Corvin makes him feel snubbed. They meet up with Harry Diggleman who seems think they are bringing him a man in exchange for what he has for them which causes Kalyn to be suspicious. We see that what Harry has to offer appears to be an Arcanic deck card. While Kalyn and "Mysha" are attempting to get the card from Harry without giving him the envelope in exchange, Clove sneaks up behind Harry holding a scythe.

###### Kingpins of Kyrthys, pt. 2

**This section contains spoilers - proceed with caution!**
Kalyn and "Mysha" fight Clove to gain possession of the Arcanic deck card and are ultimately successful. Once they get away from Clove, they decide to go see Allan to ask him about the card and to see if they can find out any other information about what might be going on in Kyrthys. Upon arriving at Allan's, they are greeted by Corvin who is waiting for Allan to return. After smoothing over the earlier situation with Corvin, they wait together for Allan. When there is no sign of Allan after an hour, Kalyn and "Mysha" retreat to the Weeds to rest and take a break. Kalyn gives "Mysha" a disguise since it is not common for Mysha to be in the Weeds. This allows them to have an intimate moment prior to continuing their mission. Upon waking up, both Kalyn and "Mysha" have several missed calls and texts. Za'rah eventually gets in touch with them telling them to meet her at the Astronomy Tower as a ship has returned from the Wildes and an announcement is being made. Feeling extremely suspicious, Kalyn dons a disguise as well so that he and "Mysha" (who is already disguised) can check it out without being noticed. Upon arrival, it is apparent that there are not nearly enough people around for an announcement to be happening soon. They climb to the top of the tower to find Za'rah alone. As they are talking, Void Ghouls from the Wildes break into the tower. Having only moments to react, Kalyn chooses to grab "Mysha's" hand and teleport to the bottom of the tower, leaving his sister to fend for herself. They make a plan to find a boat leaving for Terrapine from the docks at midnight. As they head out, they run into Corvin and ask him to join their expedition.

## Relationships

### Significant Relationships

#### Julian Centurion

Kalyn and Julian have been close friends since childhood. Kalyn once lied to protect Julian from Heirophant Yvonne after Julian had practiced a transformation spell on her and set her on the warpath. They enjoy spending time together working on the myriad tinkering projects Julian has lying around at all times. Thanks to this shared hobby, nobody suspects that they are secretly sleeping together. If found out, they would be chastised for this serious social faux paus.

Kalyn tried to forbid Julian from going on the trip to the Wildes which caused an argument between the two. They spent the night together before Julian was supposed to leave for the expedition. Kalyn was the only person to recognize that Julian had disguised himself as Mysha and swapped places with them. Although he was happy to still have Julian around, he was also upset that Julian was willing to use powerful magic which ultimately put his sibling in grave danger.

#### Qui'ara "Qui " Lockley

Kalyn picked Qui as his champion who was sent to the Wildes in search of the prophecy. Although he's not actually fond of Qui's personality, she did protect him when he ran out of energy protecting himself against transphobes. He is confident in her ability to lead her group on this expedition.
