Personal history

The first son of a powerful Waterdeep family, he became a city-wide hero by leading the charge against a 13-headed Hydra that emerged from the nearby swamps, with the help of a griffon he raised from birth. His sense of honor and goodness led him to venture far from his home and join the Feathergale Knights, to protect the area from other dangerous monsters. He is the only Knight to have a griffon as a mount.

Accomplishments & Achievements

Killed a 13 headed Hydra. Turned back several orc raids, as well as hunted and killed a number of dangerous beasts. Raised the status of the Feathergale Knights from a simple hunting club to a protective force in Dessarim Valley. Frequently assists the Brotherhood of the Sun and the Requisition Office.

Mental Trauma

Feels like Aerisi Kalinoth should not be the head of the Cult, as she is awful, flighty, and flies into childish tantrums when things don't go her way. If left to his own devices he would eventually lead the Knights against Aerisi to gain control of the Cult, but is nonetheless devoted to the Cult and its advancement.

Calm: Compassionate and Confident. Treats guests with kindness, and bows to them as if he was a courtier himself. Stressed: Becomes commanding, expects those around him to follow him without question. If revealed to be a leading figure of the Air Cult: Becomes fanatical, and scornful of resistance. Tends to pace.
