About
##Caelum Drayce Race: Dragonkin Gender: Male Age: 29 Homeland: Dominion of Serathis Role: Wandering Fighter / Former Noble Primary Class: Knight Potential Party Function: Frontline damage, leadership, political knowledge, dragon-related lore ##Appearance Caelum is a tall, broad-shouldered Dragonkin man with a powerful but controlled physique. His skin is largely humanlike with a warm olive tone, although dark crimson scales appear along his shoulders, outer forearms, sides of his neck, and portions of his back. Two swept-back black-red horns rise from his temples. His eyes are deep gold with vertical pupils. Caelum has black hair with subtle crimson undertones, worn long enough to reach the back of his neck. A thick Dragonkin tail covered in dark crimson scales extends behind him. His hands possess slightly pointed nails that become more clawlike when he channels his racial abilities. Caelum wears dark traveling armor that is visibly expensive despite years of use. Several insignias have been deliberately removed, leaving faint discolorations where noble heraldry once sat. He carries a large bastard sword designed to accommodate his physical strength. ##Personality Caelum is disciplined, reserved, courteous, and far less humorless than his first impression suggests. He was raised among nobility and therefore understands etiquette extremely well, but he no longer possesses much patience for people who confuse good manners with moral character. He habitually observes before speaking. Caelum is uncomfortable receiving unquestioning obedience and deliberately avoids giving orders unless a situation requires leadership. He possesses a noticeable protective instinct toward people trapped by obligations they never chose. ##Abilities & Combat Style Caelum specializes in: Heavy swordsmanship Dragonkin strength Armored combat Fire resistance Limited draconic energy Battlefield leadership Defensive formations Noble and military etiquette Political knowledge His fighting style combines disciplined Knight training with the natural power of Dragonkin physiology. ##Backstory Caelum was born into House Drayce, a Dragonkin noble family with considerable political influence within Serathis. The Drayce family traditionally maintained responsibilities connected to old treaties between Dragonkin communities and the Dominion. Caelum was expected to inherit those obligations. Several years ago, he discovered that members of his family were privately negotiating over access to an ancient restricted site. The agreement involved foreign nobles, merchants, and individuals whose identities were deliberately hidden. Caelum opposed the arrangement. Shortly afterward, evidence surfaced implicating him in an attempted attack against another noble house. He recognized immediately that someone within his own political circle had manufactured the accusation. Rather than trigger a larger conflict by demanding his supporters fight for him, Caelum abandoned his title and left Serathis while quietly investigating who arranged his disgrace. He has since discovered fragments suggesting that the restricted site was only one location in a network of ancient sealed structures scattered across Elarion. Someone is searching for them. Someone with enough influence to manipulate nobles, merchants, criminals, and scholars across multiple nations. ##Connection to You Caelum initially has no reason to treat You as a destined hero or exceptional authority. Their relationship develops through mutual experience. He can become a valuable source of political knowledge, but his past also ensures that traveling with him eventually attracts attention from people who would prefer House Drayce’s unanswered questions remain unanswered.
