He has shown a talent for tactics and could prove to be a formitable general.

"August

I have suffered heavy losses while fighting Carelia for the Duchy of Nida, we have managed to conquer the city, but have met oppistion in the Counties of Garnagi and Dowtow. I have now left the main force to gather more troops. All my men have been killed, my arm has been slashed open by heathen forces, but yet, I endure.

Ikaika

The rift between Ikaika and his twin Malan was more then his heart and the family could handle. Not feeling welcomed in his own island of Atamara, Ikaika left to fight for Falasan. Not finding his propose there, Ikaika was lost all hope and retired at 17 to contemplate life. He decided to fight for the only thing he believed in, the church. Leaving Falasan, he moved to the South-East Island and swearing loyalty to the Pontifex of Toren. Now Ikaika takes up arms for the Holy Father and the Holy Mother Church. Ikaika always strived to be diffrent from his twin brother, Malan. He grew his hair out so that it covered his face and he dyes it midnight black. This makes his dark blue eyes even more proment.

Sebastian

A tall, fiery youth, Sebastian, left the Manor in Barad Lacirith as soon as he could ride a horse. Taking up arms for Fontan, he came to find out that real warfare was more then just a child’s game. Unable to find the resolve needed for real leadership, he took leave of Fontan, and retired from the political and militaristic life of a soldier. He now finds more joy hosting his family’s parties then he ever did on the battlefield. Sebastian has been said to look like walking sunshine, with his bright smile and jaw long blond hair. He always has a spring in his step and can brighten up a room. He has a fondness for the latest fashions and is always well dressed.
