Dyan
Dyan is Fey's fraternal twin brother. He was born a day after she. He is short, with long curly brown hair. His face is scarred deeply all down the left side and across his left eye, which has healed shut. His weapon of choice is the longbow, and he has a keen aim depite his one-eyed vision. Dyan is known to be a curious and innovative young man. He was never a fierce fighter in his youth, but as he has grown he has found purpose and become one to be reckoned with.
He left home at a young age to be apprenticed as a scribe, but soon found more interest in using the information he was copying down, and decided to become a trader. He began a career in the realm of Kalmar Islands, on the EC. He found the extensive politics beyond his interest, and left shortly for the Beluaterra in search of a simpler life of adventure.
He found a new home and the life he'd been looking for in the northern realm of Melhed. He was welcomed warmly, and found a religion that deserved his faith, that of the Old Gods.
He has become a Vanquisher for his faith, and spends nearly every waking moment hunting down the monsters to prove humans' worth to the eyes of the Old Gods. Dyan suffered a severe wound in a battle with the evil children, which is what impressively scarred his face and caused his left eye to be rendered unusable, sealed shut and perhaps destroyed. He continues his fight against the monsters. He has taken to wearing polished claws from monsters he personally vanquished as mementos to keep his will and courage strong. Dyan leads a large complement of very skilled longbow archers, the Hawkeyed II.
Of late, Dyan has been more quiet than usual, leading his unit around keeping the peace in Melhed. The recent advent of Adventurers in Melhed has reduced the number of monsters significantly, and Dyan's second-in-command, Jake, has a theory that his leader has lost his purpose in the peaceful and complicated diplomatic times they are living in.
There has been a great deal of unrest in Melhed, the treacherous former Valentians again re-formed Valentia from Melhedian lands, after one of their loyalists, Hagalaz, killed Premysl Otakar in a duel. Two regions were without Lords. The Valentics took one for their own with the secession, but left Rengo still lordless. Dyan stepped in for the position as a change in pace from patrolling thanklessly back and forth between Fronen's southern border and Agyr. He was elected by a large majority and is now the proud Count of Rengo, right next to his sister Fey's region of Bil Havil.
