Kardis. Age 16, often seen carrying a large staff with a red ball at the
tip and wearing a smug grin that would make anyone want to slug him.
Not much is known about Kardis, due to his secretive demeanor. But, he's
become rather involved with many of the adventurers in Rivendell, so perhaps
more has been discovered about his nature than he might like. His most
apparent connection is with Kivrin deRocinante: a relationship which he has
occassionally claimed to be love, but that is extremely questionable. Even
recently, he seemingly abandoned her in a time of great need. Is this due
to fear of his emotions, conspiring towards some other plan, or simply
because he doesn't care?
Hard to say.
Kardis has the magical training of a Darkmage. He is stronger than he
appears, distrustful, and has an almost misguided preoccupation with
illusionary magic, often insisting on using it even during casual
conversations. His blood is that of a Setoran, a dry eastern kingdom with a
strange military history. With a regal attitude and manner, he seems very
aristocratic despite his magely dress. He sometimes claims to have come from
his country on some sort of mission, but those who know him would consider
the truth in that to be arguable. But perhaps he does have a purpose more
honorable than he lets on...
...or...perhaps not.
