Talyn Fenbrook
High Lord Talyn Caleb Fenbrook (a.k.a. The Dragon of the West)
Talyn Fenbrook is the High Lord of the Noble House of Fenbrook and the Lord of the First Branch of the House. He is the direct descendant of the House's founder through the line of firstborn children.
Mental characteristics
Personal history
Talyn was born the first child of High Lord Kaeydon and High Lady Orianna Fenbrook, and is the nephew of Lady Claira Fenbrook-Eversharp. His younger brother, Adran, was born when he was two years old.
His mother was murdered when he was six years old during an ambush orchestrated by a criminal organisation operating through a Noble Family in Duuintriya. Talyn witnessed the entire thing and remembers every moment of it due to his Hyperthymesia.
Talyn's father died in a shipwreck under suspicious circumstances when Talyn was in his early twenties. Talyn immediately took control of the House and, shortly after, married the love of his live, Maleena Icebloom, the daughter of a notable Hedge Witch. The marriage caused a stir among Noble circles, as many had sought to marry their daughters to the young High Lord in a bid to take control of the considerable Fenbrook wealth, but Talyn remained stalwart and rebuffed any and all advances toward him.
Between 1468 and 1478, Talyn secretly spearheaded a large portion of the Fuldair Rebellion efforts by mobilising loyalist Nobles to act in the best interests of the city, as well as supporting and helping to raise Aelyx Everbright by sending him resources and people. At the end of the Rebellion, Talyn downplayed his role, stating that he was simply observing his Noble Obligation. However, Aelyx Everbright credits Talyn alongside Bevyn Kayne as the main reasons for his survival and success.
Social
Family Ties
Talyn is married to Maleena, and by her has three sons; Alesstus, Taldaelyn, and Celdiir. His younger brother, Adran, is married to Vadania, and has twin sons, making Talyn uncle to Keyon and Nisian. His aunt Claira (who was his Father's half-sister from Talyn's Grandmother) is married to a Dwarven armourer from the House Guard, named Ulfgar Eversharp. Claira and Ulfgar have two children, Dain (a son) and Finella (a daughter), who are therefore Talyn's cousins.
Social Aptitude
The High Lord is charismatic and charming, while also projecting an aloof, frightening presence that can put most individuals in their place with a single glance. He is considered to be calm, collected and to-the-point, with impeccable manners and a near-godly grasp of both political and social etiquette.
