Background:
Alyrian's past is shrouded in mystery to all but the closest of friends. To others, he has revealed only that he was not born of Sundren, though he now declares it his home. He made a solemn promise to someone he cared deeply for, that he would protect this land against all who threaten it. To that end, he has used his warlock powers to aid Sundren against many calamities.

Recent History:
For the better part of a month, Alyrian has been suffering from the strain of containing his magic. Desperate to find a solution, he isolated himself in the glade. When he began to feel his powers growing out of control, he vanished. After a brief leave of absence, he has returned with an apparent full control of his faculties.

During the siege on the Necropolis, the source of Alyrian's recent troubles - and the reason for his apparent recovery - were revealed. Deep within the sacrificial chamber, Alyrian's body shuddered and then shattered, taking on the form of a horned devil instead. Phaedriel, Alyrian's mother, had been masquerading as her son - Alyrian was lost to her primal fury, helpless to stop Phaedriel from her call to battle. Though Phaedriel often assumes Alyrian's mannerisms when it suits her, there is no question as to who is really in control.

Alyrian's personality was completely suppressed. Only he knew what effect such an imprisonment could have on his mind and soul. However, upon discovering that the Lady Tamryn Jorandur had returned to Sundren, he broke free of his mother's domination - if only for a split second - just long enough to speak her name. When Phaedriel lured Tamryn into a trap and attempted to attack the Tormite, he again was able to stop his mother from bring the full force of her power to bear.

Already terribly weakened from these attempts, and helpless to escape from his mother's control, he languished in despair - until a small and unexpected ray of hope shined its way through. The fallen champion Tifton, one whom Alyrian had shared respect and empathy for, approached Phaedriel offering a new and less resistant vessel for her to use. She gladly accepted - and though Alyrian suspected that an innocent would need to be sacrificed, for the first time he willingly acquiesced to his mother's decision. Exhausted from the constant battle, he watched as Phaedriel's consciousness left his body, and control returned.

Powers and Abilities:
Alyrian has displayed, at one time or another, the following abilities and supernatural powers:

  • - The ability to recover from deadly injuries - he once regenerated an entire arm.
  • - Intense blasts of eldritch magic, imbued with small hexes, or venom-green acid.
  • - The ability to walk unseen, even amongst the sharpest of normal vision.
  • - Bursts of intense speed.
  • - Short-range teleportation.
  • - Conjuring hellish tentacles to strangle and beat his victims.
  • - Dispelling magic.
  • - Increased agility.

Significant Relationships:

  • Richard Darkholme - As Alyrian's first true friend among Sundren, Richard has provided invaluable insight and advice to him many times.
  • Tamara Roth - Though she has been long-past, the aching memory of the love they once shared still hangs over Alyrian. It was in her memory that he now vows to protect Sundren from those who would do it harm. Because of this, he shares a rather complicated relationship with the Lady Tamryn Jorandur.
  • Phaedriel - Alyrian's mother, who first made the dark pact that empowered them both with eldritch magic. Her soul dominated Alyrian's personality, driving him into the recesses of his own mind as she assumed his identity. Only with the aid of Hano Fetten, Tamryn, Sehron Dy'ner and Tifton was Phaedriel finally banished and destroyed.
  • Tifton - In Alyrian's eyes, Tifton is the one who liberated him from Phaedriel's fiendish control. It was his efforts, unprovoked, unrequested, but given freely and willingly, that finally spared Alyrian of his mother's terrible domination.

Factions:
He has no declared allegiances, though he has been a steady supporter of the Temple of Helm. During the Inquisition, he was captured along with many warlocks to be purged of his powers, but for some reason the Abbot Orlan Proskus spared him this fate. As a sign of reverence and gratitude to the Abbot, he continues to offer his magicks when the Church is in need. He also spends much time within the Silvanite glade, and has often helped with the Keeper's troubles as well.
