+ | Character concept by Luke Parish, all rights reserved. | ||
+ | |||
+ | **Cleric of Xynos**\\ | ||
+ | **Soldier of Korsth** | ||
+ | |||
+ | "No." | ||
+ | |||
+ | **Date of Birth:** Vor the 15th of 1300 Avard. | ||
+ | |||
+ | **Current Status:** Summer, 1331 Avard. Taryn has been recruited by the half-dragon [[Xzaxilathalanus]] to help pursue the ancient artifact known as Al Mudim. | ||
+ | |||
+ | ====== Appearance ====== | ||
+ | |||
+ | Taryn's skin is a light, sun-touched color. He's a half-elf with slightly pointed ears and little facial hair, about 30 years of age, with long auburn hair tied back in a clasp. His eyes are powerful iron-gray in color, large, and missing little, constantly shifting, assessing, and looking. He tends to wear travel-stained leathers and moves with confidence and power. Taryn tends to wear leathers and tough travel boots, along with a light pack, a longsword, and a longbow. | ||
+ | |||
+ | The Dragon Lord Korsth forged for Taryn two items of blood-red mithril -- a mail shirt and a longsword. Both items can ignite in flames on command, either separately or together. The shirt protects Taryn from fire, as well as his clothing and possessions. | ||
+ | |||
+ | **As'shranas:** this ring was named As'shranas by Tylanion of the House of Elm, and perhaps came from the horde of Killashandrastatia. It was found in a vellum envelope with As'shranas' name on it in the ruins of Tymarell, in a secret compartment in a hidden room. The ring is made of gold, with kite shields in an alternating point-crown pattern. The ring protects the wearer with an invisible force shield that glows when struck by weapons. | ||
+ | |||
+ | **Hras'Halas:** this ring was named Hras'Halas by Tylanion of the House of Elm, and perhaps came from the horde of Killashandrastatia. It was found in a vellum envelope with Hras'Halas' name on it in the ruins of Tymarell, in a secret compartment in a hidden room. The ring is made of silver and gold intertwined into a miniature torc. The ring delivers shooting stars against a target, harming if not killing the target. | ||
+ | |||
+ | ====== Background ====== | ||
+ | |||
+ | Korstholansthurast is the leader of the warriors and defenders of the Dragon Nation. A militant lord, Korsth has drawn to his banner many different peoples for a variety of reasons: some hate the [[gaeleth:history:Inquisition]], some worship the dragons, many sympathize with those who would stand for freedom, and others were merely locals whom have found a calling. Taryn found a calling both in the Dragon Nation of [[gaeleth:places:Wuron Sfa]], and in being a cleric of the Dragon God [[gaeleth:divinities:Xynosalionisis]]. | ||
+ | |||
+ | Korsth and many of the other dragon lords were having difficulties, finding themselves rulers of non-dragons, and wondering how best to rule them, and how best to preserve their new-found nation -- and their species. The ruler of the Dragon Nation still communicates with the intelligence networks in [[gaeleth:places:Rakore]], where an ancient legend had come to life; in the ruins of Tymarell in Rakore, a dragon co-ruled with dwarves and men. Taryn was sent to Rakore to investigate the ruins of Tymarell, and gather whatever other information he could about dragons in Rakore. | ||
+ | |||
+ | While there, he met a Rakoran adventurer named [[Sammeth Knar]] that helped him explore the ruins of Tymarell just prior to the [[gaeleth:history:War of the Four Winds]]. Together, they explored deeply into the ruins, and discovered much about the dragon Killashandrastatia, and how the city-state of Tymarell was ruled. Sammeth and Taryn helped evacuate the people of Takanal into the ruins of Tymarell, and down into the ruins of Daggoneth -- upon which Tymarell was built. | ||
+ | |||
+ | ====== Character ====== | ||
+ | |||
+ | Taryn is a man of patriotism to the Dragon Nations, and devotion to Xynos -- but neither to more of an extent than his devotion to the land. Taryn is the quintessential medieval conservationist; he believes in Nature, knowledge, and nastiness to anyone with an evil bent towards either. | ||
