Background
Heritage and Family Legacy
Kencathedrus hails from the Caladorn family, a house of noble lineage renowned for its staunch loyalty to the Sovereign Commander of Ta’Vaalor and its mastery of martial discipline.
The family’s crest—a silver gryphon clutching a crimson lance—represents their dual role as defenders of the city and heralds of their glory in war.
The Caladorns rose to prominence during the a prolonged elven military engagement, when Kencathedrus’ ancestors helped fortify Ta’Vaalor’s walls during a siege by elven renegades.
Born the eldest son of Lord Valadrin Caladorn, Kencathedrus was groomed from birth to embody the ideals of nobility: honor, duty, and mastery of the lance.
Early Life
Raised within the high halls of Guardian Keep, Kencathedrus’ childhood was filled with rigorous training in combat, strategy, and diplomacy.
His instructors included retired members of the Crimson Legion, who instilled in him the value of discipline and unwavering loyalty to Ta’Vaalor.
Despite his noble upbringing, Kencathedrus admired the guardsmen who defended the city’s gates, often sparring with them to test his skill against unconventional techniques.
This earned him both respect and scorn, as some of his peers saw his interest in mingling with the lower ranks as unbecoming of his status.
Present
The Call to Arms
At the age of 175, Kencathedrus joined the Crimson Legion Reserves, eager to prove himself in battle. His first assignment was a patrol near the Ravelin, where he and his unit intercepted a group of bandits preying on travelers.
Though victorious, the mission left him deeply shaken after witnessing the suffering of those who relied on the Legion’s protection.
Current Role
Now a still young warrior, Kencathedrus serves as a night watch protector of Ta’Vaalor’s interests, to root out threats to the elven city-state.
His experiences have taught him the importance of balancing tradition with adaptability, and he strives to lead by example, embodying the best qualities of his lineage.
In an effort to grow as a warrior and strategist, he was ordered to cross-train in in Wehnimer's Landing, both with the milita and the warrior's guild there.
Significant Items
Kencathedrus has a family heirloom, a longsword known as “Vyrathil”, forged from vaalorn and enchanted to shine like dawn’s first light. The blade is an ancestral symbol of his commitment to defending Ta’Vaalor and its people, no matter the cost.
