Gye'ron Val Oriden
Race:
1/2 Kemite Human – 1/2 Sylrosian Elf
Age
25 ordinations (73 eras). Born on the 45th of Ioannolius.
Physical Description:
Gye'ron is 6 feet tall and weighs 180lbs. He has steel grey eyes; his curly jet-black hair hangs down to his chin level. Gye'rons skin is a deep olive colour and is weathered and small wrinkles mark the corners of his eyes and mouth making him appear near 40 patterns of age. He has a lithe, muscular body. The only signs of his elvish routes lay in his high cheekbones and ears so slightly pointed that any non-Elf would assume that he just had pointy ears. He has a horrible scar in the middle of his chest from a crossbow bolt. His nose has obviously been broken more than once. He has a rough, short, and curly, black beard. He will always be wearing a pendant embossed with the image of Saint Bossa.
History:
Gye'ron grew up in the Sherian province living on a potato farm near Taralon. His father had spent his younger years serving with the Imperial Army and because of this Gye'ron had grown up wanting to be a soldier of the Empire himself. His mother and father had both made sure that he and his siblings knew everything of their cultural, they had always been very worried that because they lived so far away from other Kemites that their children might forget their roots. Gye'ron had two brothers and a sister, all of which he was very close to and often was very protective of them as he was the eldest.
A band of Orcs from the city of Ire raided their farm when Gye'ron was 18 patterns old. His father had fallen trying to defend the farm and they forced him and his siblings to watch them rape his mother and torture her to death. Once the Orcs had killed his mother, they raped his 14 pattern old sister but left her alive so that she could remember what they did to her. Gye'ron and his brothers had been severely beaten before the Orcs finally went on their way, raiding other farms in the vicinity.
He spent the next 5 patterns going from farm to farm with his siblings as they worked for a living. Gye'ron had kept the house deed his father had given to him when he'd turned 18 and when he had finally managed to save up enough money to move to Aelyria Prime and make sure his siblings could fend for themselves he left Sherian to pursue his dream of becoming a soldier like his father. The last he knew of his siblings was that his brother who was closest to him in age was going to head back to Zinn'sunn to be with their people and his two youngest siblings had moved into Taralon, both of them living in separate apartments. His brothers are 23 and 19 while his sister is 21.
Once he arrived in Aelyria Prime he immediately joined the garrison there. After some training he entered the AFCL and in his only match there he defeated his superior and commander Sheng Kaldres in an unarmed combat match. He was transferred to Nexus Prime with his squadron along with another squadron. On the way to Nexus Prime they encountered a group of AWOL soldiers and Gye'ron rashly charged forward, only to be shot off his horse with a crossbow bolt to the middle of his chest. If it had not been for the care of a fellow soldier and the field surgery of a Lieutenant General Gye'ron would have most likely died.
Upon arriving in Nexus his squad was immediately pitched into battle, he severely wounded a member of the House of Whispers (Imperial Intelligence) and was attacked by the HoW’s comrade. While he was wrestling with the woman a Lionoid soldier of his squad tackled the two to 'help' which ended up winding Gye'ron and allowing the woman to escape. Gye'ron was angered by this which caused him to offer a few choice words to his Lionoid comrade, which caused the Lionoid to attack Gye'ron. The Lionoid was arrested and the man Gye'ron wounded was taken prisoner. A mysterious man appeared during the battle and killed both of Gye'ron’s war dogs. When the two squadrons arrived at the fort the HoW agent attempted to escape and was killed by a member of the West Wardens.
Gye'ron received more training while in Nexus Prime and competed in two matches in the Paxia chapter of the AFCL wherein he won both matches by his opponent’s submissions. The points he received from these matches combined with his former victory in Aelyria Prime made him the champion of the AFCL chapter in Arium province. Gye'ron and his sergeant attempted to start a brawl in one of the bars of Nexus Prime; however their attempt led to nothing but a few words from a smart-mouthed local with a pair of magical gloves which heated metal. Gye'ron pretended to prepare to cast a spell which scared the man into running off.
Gye'ron eventually went AWOL in the Nexus military and fled westwards towards the border of Arakmat province. While he was stopping to rest in a ravine a bounty hunter known as ‘Morgan the Chain’ - hired by the Nexus military – caught up to Gye’ron and confronted him. There was no physical conflict between the two and the issue was resolved rather diplomatically. Gye’ron in the end gave up several thousand crowns worth of equipment including his much cherished and loved warhorse, Torel, as well as giving his word to Morgan to grant any request he might make in the future when the bounty hunter would come knocking at his door and was from that point on considered legally dead, all of this in exchange for his freedom.
For several seasons Gye’ron wandered through the wilderness of Arakmat, Arium, Centripax, and Carmelyn in his attempt to find the holy city of Diana to begin his soul-purifying holy pilgrimage. The misguided journey had sapped 500 crowns out of his purse before Gye’ron finally arrived at the gates of Diana ready to redeem his honour and reform himself as a new man.
Before arriving in Diana he first visited Tearsfall, and upon hearing rumours of deaths throughout the city he attempted to discover who exactly it was that was the cause of all the mayhem. In his search he found a necromancer and was forced to defeat his minions; two zombies and two skeletons. Ultimately the necromancer escaped but Gye'ron vowed to return one day and finish what had been started.
In Diana he came upon the Inquisition and joined it's cause as something of a detective, seeking out and reporting followers of the dark Gods, here he also met the love of his life, Ryiana. He left Diana when the new Regent, Milo, called for reconciliation between the Church of the Sacred Three and the Church of the Faith, and also effectively ended Gye'ron's employment with the Church of the Sacred Three.
From there Gye'ron moved onto Tearsfall where he sought to start a ranch and establish a simple life, so that he could provide his love Ryiana with a life he felt she deserved, even though it was one he truly didn't wish to live. Thus it was quite fortunate for him that it did not pan out, and the bank refused to give him a loan. He spent a while longer in Tearsfall and attempted to investigate the Devil's Farm but ultimately failed in his task. He trained with the spear and in tracking while in the quiet township.

His hair, to, was drawn with deliberate detail, and faded out into shadows bordering the whole portrait, as if his face had took form in the midst of darkness.
