Beijar Family

The Beijar Family

A minor house of Minas Ithil with its family holding located in Winwich. The family has just begun to gain status as its eldest children have head out in search of finding not only fame and wealth, but also their place in this world. The family currently has three children that are making their names known. Quincy, the eldest son; Jerix, the adopted son of Alasdair and Elliana Verdis; Aemon, younger brother of Quincy.

Quincy Beijar

Realm: Minas Ithil
Class: Hero
Positions: Knight of Shanandoah

Quincy left the family lands in Winwich to join the Minas Ithilian army as a Soldier at the age of 17. He has seen a few battles during his 3 years, slowly gaining in honor and prestige and rising up in the Ithilian ranks. As Quincy defends Minas Ithil he hopes to become a hero to the young Ithilian citizens and eventually become the Count of Winwich to help the local economy and protect those citizens of his home region.

During the long sieges of Barad Riel, Quincy has started bringing his lute along to keep the morale of his unit high. Because of his selfless acts in the last couple battles he has been in, his men, and the peasants of Minas Ithil have started to view him as an heroic icon. Quincy reluctantly accepts this to keep the peasants feeling of security intact.

Jerix Beijar

Realm: Light of Fountain
Class: Soldier
Positions: Marquis of Negev

When Jerix was 17 he had been accepted into the Ithilian army. That night Talof Beijar revealed to him that he had been adopted and Jerix was really the son of Alasdair and Elliane Verdis. Talof went on to reveal how Alasdair had been High Marshal of Carelia before a mysterious sickness had killed him and his wife. Being Jerix's godfather, Talof had brought him back to Winwich and raised him as his own. Torn between serving Minas Ithil, or continuing his real fathers legacy in Carelia, Jerix chose to follow his heart an instead chose to travel to the East Island.

Jerix spent the next 3 years fighting for Fontan and was present during the siege and destruction of Avamar. During those 3 years Jerix felt and uneasiness growing in him and felt as though the current wars and destruction of realms was a part of a greater evil. A fellow Fontanes knight, Hannibal, discovered a temple in Fontan City. After examining this temple at Hannibals invitation to all Fontanese knights, Jerix realized that the images explained what he had been feeling.

Shorty after his visit to the Temple of Light, the city of Fontan split from the Fontan realm and became the capital of a new realm, the theocracry of the Light of Fountain. Jerix immediately joined the new realm and pledged his life and sword to upholding the light and stopping the darkness from spreading across the East Continent. His desire to learn more about the Holy Books and the information within impressed the High Council and he was appointed Marquis of Negev within a couple weeks.

Aemon Beijar

Realm: Plergoth
Class: Soldier
Positions: Knight of Creasur

Aemon is a year younger than Quincy. Instead of being in his older brothers shadow Aemon chose to join the realm of Eston at age 17. He faithfully served Eston and quickly gained the most honor and prestige of any members of his family. He continued to serve Eston up until they and Minas Ithil's diplomatic relations turned to war. Knowing he could never raise his sword against his brother should he meet him on the battle field Aemon boarded a ship for Beluaterra.

Aemon arrived in Creasur, capital of Plergoth. He is currently getting to know the nobles of his new realm, and hopes to get to know them better and he continues to fight beside them while protecting their lands against foreign invaders. After having visions of a war that was not physical, Aemon joined the priesthood to save the people of Beluaterra from spiritual darkness.

Receiving a vision where darkness would overtake him unless he once again brandished a sword, Aemon meditated for 5 days, and finally came to a decision to leave the priesthood. Although the decision came at a cost, Aemon once again took up his sword to fight for Plergoth once again. He solemnly waits to see what retribution the gods may bring upon him for this choice.
