Jaysehn Ranshai is a human Aristocrat. He claims to be from a distant land called the Kingdom of Quevek, within which his family holds the seat of the Dukes of Rygil. He is a Master of the Order of Voln, and has served the Knight-Sentinels of the Order since his first vows. He is active any place the minions of Luukos hold sway.

History

Born in his family's ancestral estate, Jaysehn was the second of three siblings. Born without the blessings of mana, Jaysehn was unable to take up the traditional mantle of sorcery for which his family was famed. With that mantle taken up by Jaysehn's older brother, Jaysehn spent much of his formative years in the Academy of Jenar, the Kingdom's premier institution of learning. Circumstances that he is reluctant to speak of caused him to have a split from his family upon his graduation from the Academy.

Some months later, Jaysehn arrived on the shores of Elanthia and quickly sought out the Order of Voln to learn how to destroy the undead. It has been his mantle, duty and mission ever since.


Appearance

You see Jaysehn Ranshai the Aristocrat.
He appears to be a Human.
He is taller than average. He appears to be young. He has calculating steel grey eyes and flawless olive skin. He has long, flowing mahogany brown hair gathered into a sleek ponytail at the nape of his neck and secured with a jade-clasped charcoal silk hair-tie. He has subtly aquiline features accenting a well-defined jawline.

Signature Possessions

an ornate ebony eahnor cresset sword - 'Dusk'

Pallid silver at its core, the hilt of this eahnor weapon bears six panels of engraved ivory running from guard to pommel, three to a side. Each ivory panel bears the detailed image of a raven and a crescent moon. The raven's pose is different in each panel, but the moon remains the same. A small jade crest is set into the blade itself, just above the tang, featuring a raven perched inside a crescent moon, its head tilted as it gazes into the distance. Etched along the blade is a motto in fine script. A faint aura of holy light radiates from the sword. You also notice a small enchanter's glyph. A strange necrotic haze radiates from the sword. There appears to be something written on it.

In the Common language, it reads: Patience tempers the sword of fury.


a crisp black gold-inked pedigree

This richly appointed vellum appears to be a genealogy of the family Ranshai, tracing its ancestry back nearly seven generations. The names of the male members of the line are scribed in a particularly bold fashion, the obvious intent to draw the eye to them. It begins with what appears to be the progenitor of the line, Dejar. It then continues down through six male heirs until finally arriving at the last wedded male's progeny: Vesago, Jaysehn, and Alicia.
