Heirloom: Ardan was given an assassin dagger from his grandfather. It is made of Isurian Steel and had a jaguar head carved into the hilt.


Character Concept

Ardan can react to any situation in a vast variety of ways. He is plagued by three separate personalities that attempt to guide him in often conflicting directions. It is possible that these conflicting personalities have resulted from his several traumatic experiences.

The first is called Seraph. He shows himself in dreams as a short, dark-skinned elder. He attempts to guide Ardan to do good. The second is called Lucius, a pale-skinned, young man. He is constantly trying to convince Ardan to coo it atrocities such as murder. The third is called Iso. He silently guides Ardan in most of his decision making, and appears as a perfect copy of the man himself, but with grey eyes.

Ardan's troubled past has given him several psychological issues, from paranoia to impulsive violence. He had been known to get angered very easily, but he manages to control it, most of the time.

However, he is fiercely protective of friends and family. When given a decision between saving himself or a friend, he would choose the latter without a second thought. One specific event (see History) has left him so paranoid and defensive that he has an almost obsessive need to protect those close to him.

Bonding is a difficult thing for him. He doesn't even know if he can bond again, due to the death of his first (see History).

Although he has killed before, there are lines he will not cross. He will not torture, commit brutality, kill a pregnant woman or child, or kill a friend. He has a difficult time killing cats, as well.

His only known family is Noera - another Kelvic who he tracked down in Lhavit - his younger sister.


Character History


Ardan was born and raised in Syliras. His mother and father loved him with endless affection. His grandfather also assisted in raising him, serving as a mentor and guardian.

As he grew, he found himself looking more and more like his grandfather in both personality and appearance. They spoke in the same way, enjoyed the same things, and looked incredibly similar. It was the old man who first taught him to handle a dagger, and how to hunt as a panther.

Hidden from his parents was Ardan's second life. During the night, Ardan lived a joyous life of larceny and debauchery. He loved the night, and 'twas in the night that he found his love.

He was three years old, though appeared to be eighteen. She was a seventeen-year-old human. They met in an unusual way: he saved her life. She was being attacked by a large, brutish fellow who seemed to be used to submissive women.

Just as he was about to kill the woman, Ardan stopped him. He jammed his blade through the thug's heart, thus, ending his abusive ways. He expected the woman to run, having witnesses a murder, but she did something quite unexpected.

She thanked him. She recognized the death as defense, and saw Ardan as a hero. She introduced herself as Safire, and asked if he would accompany her home. Tantalized by her pure, blue eyes, he accepted. Over the next two seasons, they would become much more than friends.

They bonded incredibly quickly, and eventually were to be married. It was she who taught him to observe the eyes, claiming that they were windows into the very essence of a person. She was a master at observation, able to see a murderer in a room of thieves.

Sadly, their bond was cut short. They were sleeping peacefully until someone broke in. Before he could do anything, Ardan was knocked unconscious and Safire was taken. When he awoke, the panther knew that she was dead. He felt an emptiness in his soul that could not go away.

This pain drove him from Sylira. Eventually, his old personality vanished. He became watchful, paranoid, and very defensive. Upon returning to Syliras, he found his family buried. Knowing that he had nothing, he left Sylira and never returned.

From then on, he travelled. He joined various groups, including being a stowaway on a ship to Wind Reach once (where he picked up a poor understanding of Nari), but had not acquired much skill in wilderness survival. Eventually, his travels landed him in Lhavit, where he is currently located.
