Personal history

Seeking a child, Ennalan's parents made a bargain with Bellis Faircloak, one of the Hag's of the The Faircloak Coven to gain a child. They were granted twins, on the condition that one went to the coven and so Ennalan ended up in their traveling domain, raised as their son and agent.   They taught him magic, history and although he could not use all of the magic they did, he developed his own style based off their lairs. It was far from a conventional upbringing but it left him educated and capable of handling the dangers of the wider world.   At 16 the coven sent him out, partly to let him grow and live his own life, partly to send people back to the temple for the hags to make deals with. Looking for money and a way to make use of his skills he joined the platinum prerogative mercenary company and met River in the Snow, Xior of the Ghostmane, Aay Mosscut and was involved in the rescuing of Seteth. During that time the pair began dating until eventually the company disbanded and while the other 4 stuck together, Ennalan decided to go a seperate direction.   It was healthy enough and he set out to look for people in need. He made off pretty well with the previous mercenary work but he was tired of punching down taking contracts from nobles and begain making deals with underdogs. It didn't take him long to find allies. Liahna and Verilath joined him and their unique and wide area magic helped even the playing field for much smaller forces.   Together they travel the wilderness on foot, moving from place to place looking for rebellions uprisings and injustice to help correct, if the situation is right.

Sexuality

Straight

Education

Raised as the son of a coven of hags, Ennalan was raised learning the intricacies of magic and experimenting on magic items left behind from victims or as the payment for the hag's deals.

Employment

Contract work with rebel forces and underdogs. Does alright but things can get lean between contracts.

Accomplishments & Achievements

  • Assisting in the overthrow of corrupt regimes and noble lords
  • Generally being rad as fuck

Mental Trauma

He's had no shortage of traumatic experiences growing up with the hag mothers and after years of hard mercenary work. He brings a unique insight to the the way hags operate which has gotten him absolutely roasted by people that didn't grow up with them so he generally keeps his actual heritage to hidden.

Intellectual Characteristics

He grew up with cunning hags and this has rubbed off on him. He's sharp and always on the lookout for tricks and traps.

Morality & Philosophy

Heinous acts don't do much to trigger him but breaking contracts or bargins especially social contracts draw him to act. People from every rank of society betraying the public trust drives him up the fucking wall and making deals with their enemies is how he deals with it.   He's been known to cary out assassinations and dirtier work using his map magic.

Personality Characteristics

Motivation

Right now he's pretty aimless, he's mostly bouncing from deal to deal and wandering the world with his friends trying to put some good out into the world.

Virtues & Personality perks

Ennalan is geniuenly kind, caring, is always ready to listen and has blunt wisdom to offer if you're looking for it. Despite his up bringing he has turned out to be a pretty chill guy once he got out into the wider world. He has made a living doing work that helps people and is down to trade in things other than money for his services.

Vices & Personality flaws

He holds grudges like hags. If you're straight with him on stuff you're fine but betrayals and going back on deals without heads up sends him spiraling and hyperfixating.   He takes work that does good but not really to help people, more to spite bastards.

Social

Family Ties

Raised Collectively by the Hags of the Fetid Gaze.

History

Seteth had been enslaved and Ennalan was part of the group that liberated her encampment. She had just been rescued from severe abuse and he was still fairly young but they were attracted to each other. They started dating but his inexperience and her recent trauma resulted in a lot of misunderstandings at first. The proximity of their work meant they stuck with it and the wisdom of some older members kept things fairly healthy. This went for several years but it did eventually end. Not on bad terms but when the Platinum Prerogative dissolved and the rest of the windblown founders decided to group, the pair decided it was time to end things and go their seperate ways.

History

Aay and Ennalan hit it off early in their mercenary carrers, meeting through the prerogative. They would pair with each other regularly to scout and setup ambushes. Years later they still hang out occasionally. Aay doesn't bring it up to the rest of the founders but they have a solid friendship still.

History

They know each other from the prerogative, and while they're on good terms they never really worked in the field with each other that much. Xior was extremely frontline and Ennalan was almost always backline. There was not a lot of privacy in the makeshift camps of the prerogative and Xior was still pretty fresh off of his family's death so Ennalan would build him private spaces away from the rest of the company. Since that started the two have had a very chill relationship.

History

The pair came across each other in the forest. Verilath was scouting ahead with her mist body when ennalan spotted it leaving. He found her sleeping body and waited until she woke up to engage her. When she woke up she was obviously spooked as fuck and ripped into him for being a creep. He shrugged this off and after demonstrating his abilities asked if she wanted to partner up. They did and have been using their combined abilities to do mercenary work ever since.
