Kievan ir'Talar is a silver pyromancer of the Order of the Gilded Labyrinth, and Gennara ir'Damilek's apprentice before Drego Sarhain. He studied wizardry in Sigilstar, but was introduced by his mentor to Gennara, who invited him to join the order and trained him. He was further along in his magical education than Drego was when coming under Gennara's tutelage, so he spent a comparatively much shorter time being trained.
