Personal history
Nadian is the bastard child of a torrid affair between Lord Ron Ortega and Lady Ron Lamperos. To save face, both families chose to overlook the affair if they gave the child up for adoption. Instead the child was given to the Shadowed Heart, who found no use for a magic-less child. Thus he was cast out as an orphan at a young age. He survived as another wretch of the Knife until he was taken in by Lieutenant Carlein Pereek. He was quickly sold to a slaver, and though he was saved by Ela, the church in which he was sent to sold him into slavery again.
He eventually escaped and lived as a vagabond for years in Alloyus. Eventually he found help in the River Lord's service, which allowed him to steal food more easily. Eventually he attempted to steal from Ryuma, who caught the boy and took him in as an apprentice. Eventually Nadian took to Ryuma's style of help, and swore an Oath of Ancients before the Dragonleaf Tree in Gateway. He was then allowed to join the Lion's Guard as Ryuma's first and only squire.
After Ryuma left to pursue Morgan, he followed after his trail but found Pereek in control of Three Point River. He stuck around, believing Pereek knew something as to why Ryuma stayed in Three Point River. After speaking with Coro'Nea, he learned of the party's plight regarding Avalissa, Jevahn and Javeyah. He aided the children in their escape and decided to stick around further to aid the party.
Since then he has taken a liking to Ela Stonetell. He learned she was the reason he was saved from Pereek as a child. He has since fallen for her.
After ousting Pereek from Three Point River, he currently works helping keep order in town. Squashing the remnants of the Sparrow Guard, as well as ensuring relations between the White Stag Clan and the Alloyan townsfolk remain smooth.
