- Warlock - Celestial Pact - Silver Flame
- Got into a scuffle with some Pure Flame zealots while running administrative errands
- They set Lycianthes ablaze, but he did not burn
- In that moment, he made his pact with the Silver Flame to dole out justice
- A young noble from a weaker family within House Lyrandar; Rain Caller's Guild
- Just reached adulthood and has been thrown into an arranged marriage
- Fiance is Gladiolus Wyntris, who is actually in love with Lycianthes
- They grew up together and are actually pretty good friends
- From a well-respected family
- An Eldritch Knight? A Paladin? Is a military man.
- A hopeless romantic, kind of cheeky, irritatingly positive
- Sends bouquets of gladiolus and lycianthes flowers as a tease
- The marriage is very important to Lycianthes' parents
- They're kind of ashamed that Lycianthes is:
- A warlock - taking the easy way out
- Pact with the Silver Flame - they don't want to be seen as religious weirdos in House Lyrandar
- This is his one chance to fix this
- "We're Rain Callers!"
- His mother is less upset about this
- They're kind of ashamed that Lycianthes is:
- Goes adventuring to put off the wedding
- Gladiolus is okay with this
- Kind of disappointed, but saw it coming
- Parents are less okay with it, but they've all agreed that as soon as he gets back, the wedding will happen
- The current mission into space research seems respectable enough
- Gladiolus is okay with this
- On track to become a Minister in House Lyrandar
- It makes the whole Silver Flame thing even worse because it makes it sound like a joke
- Mother/Robinia - Elf (Aerenal) & Father/Asphodel - Half-Elf (House Lyrandar)
- Family name: Asteir
- Their marriage was political
- The Asteirs haven't had a Dragonmarked in a long time and they are afraid their Half-Elven lineage is becoming too weak
- They offered something to Robinia's family that they couldn't refuse (magical forest shenanigans?)
- It's a step down to them, but there is no misunderstanding that Robinia WILL outlive her husband and come back afterwards
- Well-loved Cousin - Solanum
- 5 years older (25yo)
- A jeweler magewright
- Lycianthes felt the need to defend him as they grew up, despite being younger
- Crafted Lycianthes' arcane focus (the hathphool)
- "Let me help protect YOU every once in awhile"
