Ok... I’m not as eloquent as
some, but I’ve been told I can talk a lot. Fortunately for all of you, I
will be talking about the other people in the Barony, and my impressions
of first really meeting them. I would talk about me, but I’m not sure I
would give an appropriate picture of myself. I think that Jaunt could
tell you about me better, so I’ll stick to what I know. But before I get
into anything else, I must have my say about being "The Grand Marenthan
Exception."
It is strange being one of two
"round-ears" in the barony, and the only one of the two that does not
fight with paired weapons, or know alchemy. Rosalind says that humans
have ambition.. I would rather have the long life. Taking two or three
decades to study obscure poetry would not be my cup of tea, but I’d like
the chance. Sometimes I feel like I’m just a dynamic player in all the
elven lives around me. In two centuries, what will my impact have had on
this Barony? Though when I think that, I remember the times that I have
saved one of my friends from ressurecting. And I am reminded that I am
making sure that they can live to see that Barony two centuries down the
line.
Enough of this. Now to the
others.
Jaunt:
What can I say? The first thing he ever did for me is save my life. The
most recent thing he has done for me was the same. Without him, I would
be a red stain on the cobblestones in Goldhaven somewhere, or a foul
necromancer. All I hope for him is that he will finally become all I see
in him. The other-realm Jaunt was said to be a "Leader of men". This
Jaunt is much more than that.
My Lady
Baroness Rosalind Frederick: When I met Rosalind, I quickly saw
what drove me to swear my oaths. I thought to my self "Wow, this is what
all nobility should be..." She has passion in her beliefs, which I cannot
say for all I have met in Tyrangel. I would lay my life at her feet, and
she would allow me to ask, "Why?" As rule # 3 says: "If the Baroness is
wrong through a lack of information, that will cause you to resurrect,
you may respectfully provide said information" But really, just meet
her and you will know what I mean.
My Lady
Dame Amaris Baeyear: I coined the phrase describing her as "Tough as
nails, and twice as tall". She is that and more. Her sense of loyalty
is unsurpassed, and her compassion the same. Now if I could just get her
to tell me when she’s hurt...
There will be more, when I can
think of how to put it.
As most might be able to see, I am a
dark elf now. This change was by choice, for reasons that I'd like kept
to the thirty or so people who asked me "Why?" So I guess you can
disregard all that Marenthan Exception stuff now. Well, back to my first
impressions of members of this Barony.
Baron Arturus
Bane: The amount of stories I had heard before I had met him was
staggering... He had been a what? Since this was a new thing for
me to hear, I was unsure of how to approach My Lord Baron. Now I know he
is a honorable and just person, and the nightmare thing doesn't bother me
in one bit. Some of my best friends have been nightmares since I was in
Tyrangel. But I guess that I am a bit jaded now.
Phyrra Tenshi: About the most
frightened I have been is when I am under the disapproving gaze of my
sensei. I'll be the first to admit that I was completely intimidated by
her quiet manner that hid such a quick mind. Once I had proven myself to
have some promise, she took me as an apprentice. I have excelled in
earth magics under her tutelage, although the diplomacy and tact lesons
have not all taken. I am honored to know her, and to be taught by her.
Lord Loken
Tenshi: Loken was the first dark elf I ever had any sort of serious
conversation with, also the first that I had ever been friends with. His
manner of quick ,detached humor made me feel more comfortable with
Tyrangel as a whole. The fact that Jaunt trusts him, completely trusts
him, helps a lot also. We fought the gnolls from the Gallyamath side by side & we also took second
in the spellcasters tournament recently. If you have a need for someone
who will spit on the face of death, look to Lord Loken.
Whisper Everhate: Next to my
sensei, Whisper is the most intimidating person I have ever met. His
quiet bloodthirstiness and unrelenting fight against evil
frightened me. I thought that that is all he did. I was truly
wrong. The sense of honor in this man is the epitome of our race as a
whole. He has much to say (humorous and serious) to those who might
listen to him.
Knight-Captain
Tiger de Danaan: The man's sense of duty is astounding. Since I met
him he has been completely devoted to My Lord Baron and My Lady Baroness.
Tiger has taken a bunch of would-be warriors with a pike and a tankard,
and turned them into a tight-knit military family. His "lads and lasses"
are a pleasure to see patrolling our lands. His prowess as a warrior is
impressive, but if you spend time to know this man, it will pale in
comparison to his compassion for the innocent. Now if we could get him
to sleep more.
