Born beneath the relentless sun of the Golden Winter, Ar'ern Eyllis'urdrenn was shaped by the harsh desert, where his affinity for fire became both his weapon and his way of life. As a gifted Fire Elementalist, his power soon reached the ears of Arethane's royal court, leading to his assignment to the service of Baron Thaervince Caer'Thalarin. However, his service to the Baron was not solely due to his magical prowess. A necromancer's deadly plot against Ar'ern and his companions had left them vulnerable, and the King of Arethane saw it fit to send them to the Vale—not only to aid in Baron Thaervince's defense of the new lands but also for their own protection. With enemies lurking in the shadows, Ar'ern's presence was as much a safeguard for his group as it was a demonstration of the King's influence. Upon their arrival, the people of the Vale welcomed Ar'ern and the Baron's court as heroes. The Baron's efforts to stabilize the Vale, combined with Ar'ern's powerful magic, ensured that his new home would not only survive but thrive. As the Baron's chief mage, Ar'ern has proven invaluable, his fire magic acting as both a defensive weapon and a symbol of renewal for the Vale's future. Yet, despite the warmth of the Vale's reception, Ar'ern remains ever vigilant. The necromancer's plot still casts a long shadow over him and his friends, and in the political web of the Vale, dangers can come from any quarter. While Ar'ern has found allies in the Baron's court, he knows that trust is fragile, and the price of his protection may one day come at a cost. As both a protector and a strategic force, Ar'ern stands ready—his fire ever burning, whether for defense or for the future of the Vale. |
