Gwyndol Archaon

Gwyndol Archaon

Formerly known as Gwyndol Aethelmar, Gwyndol Archaon is a half-elf emigrant of the Kyranian Empire. A powerful warrior and remarkable leader, he now serves under his endeared beloved; Empress Evelyn Stern.

Gwyndol is the sole child of John Aethelmar, a renowned marshall and prince of the Thismonian Kingdom, and Embera, a woman shrouded in mystery whom very little is known about. Gwyndol spent the first few years of his existence by his mother’s side while his father spent his time managing affairs of state. During these early years, Gwyndol’s mother taught him how to speak, read and write a multitude of divergent languages; some which are foreign to Skazia itself. Unfortunately, it wasn’t long before she was seemingly forced to depart. The hazy memory of his mother urgently stepping through an obscure portal is his last recollection of her.

Shortly thereafter, political turmoil plunged the Thismonian Kingdom into a civil war. After the demise of King Korthro Aethelmar, Gwyndol's father, John, was ushered to claim the Thismonian throne but ultimately refused leaving the kingdom in ruin. Gwyndol and his father fled their manor in the Heartlands and journeyed to the Aethelmar controlled coastal city of Aktina. There they joined up with Bredbeddle Runeweave, an exiled member of the Order of Thismonian Knights and son of Sir Istaer Runeweave. Bredbeddle escorted the young half-elf prince to the docks while John stayed behind. Together they boarded a large vessel outfitted with purple sails. From there they voyaged to the distant shores of Kyrania.
