Hendrick Madigan
"May a bright future await us here where the Lurian sun sets. May we ever serve as a paragon of moderation and reason, of peace and justice."
Early Life
The first son of Halcyon Jazuma, Hendrick was born in a smal chain of islands that he refers to as the Summer Isles, though their positioning on a map is unknown to most of the world. He was raised in a colorful and lively court of his father's creation and was privileged with countless books and excellent teachers.
A fiery and restless youth, it was Hendrick who first attempted to leave House Madigan to see the world and convinced his brother to do likewise. Bold, passionate, and clever, Hendrick is more confidant in himself than he has a right be and is eager to prove himself to those around him.
A Young Hendrick Madigan
Luria Nova
He arrived in the realm of Luria Nova where he was warmly welcomed by [[D'Arricarr�y/Torpius|Torpius D'Arricarrère]] who converted him to the fold of Aetheris Pyrism, a faith that he now pledges his life to. Possessing his father's knack for politics and law, Hendrick was appointed as the Earl of Thar Gortauth in the newly established Duchy of Shinnen and worked tirelessly for his new region and realm
Luria Vesperi
After careful planning by Duke Bipel Coldchest and permission from King Tybalt Crusader of Luria Nova, the duchy of Shinnen ceded to form the kingdom of Luria Vesperi. Hendrick was appointed to High Magistrate of the realm, following in his father's footsteps.
Aetheris Pyrism
In the faith, he is the author of collection of documents on Theosophy and has recently been appointed to the position of Blaze Guide, or the equivalent to High Priest.
Personality
Though outwardly confident, Hendrick has occasionally displayed what his father called his 'mortal flaw', a crippling fear of darkness and enclosed spaces. This fear is alternatively enhanced by the stories of the Dark Ones in his faith and lessened by the comfort of Aetheris Pyrism.
Hendrick, despite having confidence in his swordplay, has been noted to slight and, despite his height and finesse, lacks the strength of his fellows knights. In lieu of martial skill, Hendrick compensates with his political abilities. Hendrick has also been noted to be noticeably foreign, thanks to his strong accent ((OOC: Welsh)) and his habit of slipping into his mother tongue.
After the attempts on the lives of Malus Solari and Koli Bedwyr, Hendrick rapidly gained information on the situation and collected remarkable first-hand accounts, indicating that he shared his father's ability to effectively operate a network of informers and spies, thanks to his forceful personality, deft use of family wealth, and canny use of sensitive documents.
Positions Held
High Magistrate of Luria Vesperi, Consular of the Shinnen Court, Earl of Thar Gortauth, Blaze Guide of Aetheris Pyrism, Vice-Marshal of The Lurian Vanguard,
