Raniq

Raniq Fairhair

About My Character

Raniq Fairhair is the third and youngest son of Lord Alvar Aiglos, a diplomat descended from ancient Eldanar royalty, and Ce'Ilara Spellweaver, a half-Llyranesi wizard. While his older brothers took more after their father, Raniq followed in his mother's path, taking up wizardry and the faith of Eluna.

Raniq is an accomplished scribe and calligrapher, and an avid student of languages. Family lore has it that his father is directly descended from an angel some centuries ago, and this has contributed to Raniq's fascination with angels.

Having been raised at court with a diplomat for a father, Raniq has a generally open mind regarding other races, cultures, and faiths, but is loyal to the family, to Alexandros, and to Eluna. For example, he abhors the betrayal of the Mul'niessa as a culture, but reserves judgment on individuals until they show him an indication of their world view.

Raniq has a familiar that spend nearly all its time perched or crawling on his body. Its name is Herman the Ermine, because it is an ermine (a weasel for game mechanics; its info is in a +cnote). Like many wizards, Raniq is especially intelligent and genuinely loves scholarship. He specializes in evocation magic, and is usually glad to allow allied wizards to copy spells from his book into theirs, as long as they reciprocate.
