Though, in contrast to this serious and determined nature, he is generally calm and amiable, socializing well with people and known to charm them with his gentle manner. He does not feel the need to act in an instant, knowing that with all of his wishes and wants, comes the time it takes to accomplish his goals. Illyan dislikes being left disappointed by failure, and even though he has experienced failure often, he takes it more personally than many. Illyan is very objective about opposition to himself, whether it is to his ideals or his allies; in lieu to his training, he knows how to battle, and he is not afraid of blades.[/indent] [indent][b]Biography:[/b] Illyan was never meant to be born. Conceived to the astute head of House Travard and a mistress in Ludra, it was controversially decided that the bastard child would be kept and raised on equal status as the rest of the royal children. Despite the protest from the court nobles and label as a blemish to their reputation, his father devoted more attention to the 'mistake' compared to his legitimate offspring. House Travard was well regarded for being among the few families with a surviving magic bloodline; Illyan was the sole inheritor of an innate affinity for the destructive element, Fire, among his other three brothers. This only stimulated a greater interest from his father, who neglected his other bashful children to further explore Illyan's potential talent. Instead of the traditional training his siblings received, he was drilled into the likes of a battle mage, extending the natural boundary of mana in his veins. With this largely active and physically demanding style compared to stationary casting, Illyan proposed a new method that involved converting and storing magical power into bare gemstones, then activating the spell by projecting mana into the crystal and causing it to shatter and fragment through physical contact wherever necessary, granting portable usage after creation. Illyan's father viewed the idea as a sedition to magic, stating that it would completely upset the foundation of traditional magic and cause imbalances among the elements. Told to discard the ideal, a fifteen year old Illyan was resolute and determined to come through with his proposal, but with no support from his father, he felt the need to take his efforts elsewhere. In the dead of night, Illyan took several of the family's gems and claimed a gift from his father that was to be given three years later. With these belongings on horseback, the boy rode off into the darkness. Knowing that his father would look for him, he set his destination for Sariwon. Weeks of journey passed as Illyan would travel during the day and attempt to make his idea a reality. After arriving in the province ruled by House Tosen and announcing his origins, he was granted asylum and inducted into the House, in exchange for his servitude to the lord as a vassal.[/indent] [indent][b]Equipment:[/b] Arcfire, unknown Fire Magic tome, and numerous gemstones.[/indent] [indent][b]Other Information:[/b] Illyan loves pets of any kind.
