  1. Sylleth of the Gloaming Court
  2. Half-Elf Warlock(Hexblade)
  3. Backstory (mostly just his personallity and background)
  4. ===================
  5. "The flowers bloom brighter when they're frozen, do they not?"
  6. The memory of flowers of pure ice remains within their mind. A vision so deep within their being, that they have no respite but to seek it in their sleep. In the back of their head, a woman's voice soothes them, as the biting cold does it's best to destroy their resolve.
  7. "You are mine, and I do not part with my belongings so easily," the voice in their mind whispers.
  8. ===============
  9. ===============
  10. "Your name is Sylleth?" The child looks up at the woman looming over them and nods.
  11. "Why don't you come and sit with me then Sylleth. I'm sure that I can help you. I know just how awfully your family's death is weighing upon you. Why don't you just tell me everything."
  12. The woman puts on a smile as she listens to the child talk about how much they misses their family, gasping at all the right points, giving comfort when it seemed appropriate. She cared not for this child's story. It was beneath one such as herself to even so much as introduce herself to a mortal child. When the child finished their story and broke into tears, the woman stood up from her seat and embraced them.
  13. "Now, now. Don't you cry now. You found me, so why don't you accept my hospitality and live here with me." The child looked up towards the woman towering over them, and began to hug tighter.
  14. "Well then, welcome to your new home. Welcome to Arctis Tor, my palace of ice."
  15. Or, Arctis Tor, home of Queen Mab, Archfey of Gloaming Court, the Queen of Air and Darkness.
  16. ===============
  17. TL;DW
  18. -I always refer to Sylleth using the gender neutral they/them, because their time with the fey of the Gloaming Court made them end up androgynous, thus gender neutral pronoun. No I'm not going to say what their actual gender is, because it is otherwise irrelevant
  19. -Sylleth is Knight Errant of the Gloaming Court of Faerie. This just means that they're trained as a fighter and bonded to the Archfey residing over this plane, Queen Mab. The title Knight Errant specifically means that he is to be wandering the world in service to Mab, and to become a Knight worthy of her.
  20. -Sylleth's time in the plane of Arctis Tor has taught them not to be trusting of others, to be wary of gifts, and always ready to fight, should the moment arise. The downsides, however, are that they are more like to be touchy with others and is more prone to lying to get what he wants.
  21. -Mab's disposition towards Sylleth is as follows
  22. -Very sink or swim mentallity. If you can't figure it out, then you don't deserve to know it
  23. -While she considers Sylleth to be hers, and will not abide anyone breaking her property, she doesn't particularly care when it
  24. comes to them breaking under her command (though she believes that nothing she commands is too outlandish for him to be able to
  25. undertake)(only mostly true)
  26. -Whatever she decides upon, regardless of how outlandish or unreasonable it may sound, is always towards the benefit of Sylleth, no matter how how much he must struggle for it.
  27. -Sylleth is branded by Mab, his right shoulder appears tattoo'd in the shape of a flower (See: https://photos.smugmug.com/Outdoor-Art-Sculptures/i-dT68bpP/0/c006a093/S/IMG_1700-S.jpg ). Glows faintly blue when using the patron's power, which can be seen under light clothing.
  28. -Mab essentially dropped them off in the region near Greenest, but told them to wander from there. Probably finds party through finding a caravan or something, idk.
