Emelyn Tahn Echen Character in The Kingdom of Banteave | World Anvil

Emelyn Tahn Echen

Emelyn Tahn Echen

The leader of Loyal Clan Echen, Duke of Frostcairn, Baron of Echen, and a devoted follower of Carrion. Weary, Kind and Hot-Tempered. As prone to acts of mercy as they are fits of rage, Emelyn is a mercurial leader who has seen their fair share of strife, violence and suffering. A series of brutal winters took their parents, and their child Torcall has left them to follow his newfound faith in the Six Saints south, beyond their reach.

Personality Characteristics

Motivation

Seeks to restore their relationship with their son Torcall, who has not been at their court in several years.

Social

Contacts & Relations

As Loyal Clan Echen is tightly bound to the fortunes of House Antyre, Emelyn shares cordial relations with their house (though they dote on their son Torcal Echen especially.)

Family Ties

Emelyn has never taken vows of marriage, keeping a string of consorts instead to provide them with comfort and children. One of these was Toran Antyre , who spent a year in Emelyn's court. The result of their union, Torcal Echen , stands one day to inherit control of the North, but he seems more intent on serving his newfound faith in the Church.

Religious Views

An adherent of Carrion, Emelyn's religious practices would likely be described as unsettling by those south of the Highlands. Having experienced so much death in their youth, Emelyn was almost preternaturally drawn to the druids of Carrion, who helped raise them until they were ready to assume the mantle of leadership. They still keep at least one druid of Carrion in their company as an advisor.

Social Aptitude

Mercurial and arbitrary, Emelyn is hard to predict in social situations. They are capable of handling themselves in the courts of Antyre when diplomacy calls for it.

History

Emelyn and Eadvard III share a peculiar camaraderie despite their many, many differences. After the death of his son Erick Eadvard Dillestone , Eadvard III has called Emelyn to his court several times, where they spend days in quiet seclusion in the Gardens of Valor. Some say he has asked Emelyn to commune with the dead and speak to his son, a practice Emelyn fervently denies is within their power.
