Ranik Fairhair


Background

Ranik Fairhair is the third and youngest son of Lord Alvar Aiglos, a diplomat descended from ancient Eldanar royalty, and Ce'Ilara Spellweaver, a half-Llyranesi wizard. While his older brothers took more after their father, Ranik followed in his mother's path, taking up wizardry and the faith of Eluna.

Ranik is an accomplished scribe and calligrapher, and an avid student of languages. Family lore has it that his father is directly descended from an angel some centuries ago, and this has contributed to Ranik's fascination with angels.

Having been raised at court with a diplomat for a father, Ranik has a generally open mind regarding other races, cultures, and faiths, but is loyal to the family, to Alexandros, and to Eluna. For example, he abhors the betrayal of the Mul'niessa as a culture, but reserves judgment on individuals until they show him an indication of their world view.


Description

Ranik Fairhair is an 18-year-old Eldanar (human) male, standing just under 6 feet tall with a slender, well-toned dancer's build. He has thick, wavy, platinum blonde hair which he keeps fairly short. His eyes are a pastel indigo, and looking at them can seem at times like gazing into the depths of a frozen lake. The angularity of his features indicates close Llyranesi ancestry. His soft hands and milky white complexion suggest an upper class scholar more than one who has had to eke out a living by hard labor. He carries himself with poise and confidence, and almost constantly seems really cheerful, with the innocence of a happy childhood lingering in his soul.

His clothing is all snowy white, with tastefully simple silver accents. He wears a fitted tunic of sheer white linen, snug to his torso, and mid-hip length, but with a V-neck and somewhat looser long sleeves ending in silver-buttoned cuffs. His white leather belt, worn low around his tunic, has an ornate silver filigree buckle, and holds a dagger in a matching white leather scabbard at his right side. His pants are expertly tailored for a perfect fit in luxuriously soft, white angora wool. His feet are shod with white canvas slip-on shoes.

Usually, an ermine sits nestled across Ranik's shoulders or climbs around his body, looking around with frequent jerky movements. Ranik also wears a white canvas bag on a strap slung across his upper body, and carries a beautiful white quarterstaff embellished with silver inlay.

Roleplay Hooks

  • He is fascinated with angels, and would love the chance to interact with them.
  • He has ranks in Craft/Calligraphy, Linguistics, Profession/Scribe, and Knowledge/various. Thus, a non-combat plot that deals with mundane scribal tasks including forgery or detection of it, creation of official documents, etc. would be a natural activity for Ranik.
