For the OC alphabet!

E, H, P

Hello, Potato. Thanks so much for the question. I hope you're having a wonderful day. This might be a little long.

cw: abuse. child abuse. murder. slavery

E is for Ellarian Jhaer, the antagonist of Flight of the Dragon.

She is among the youngest of my antagonists, as she is only 24. Don't let her young age fool you. She has been through much at such an age.

When she was only eight, she was sold by her father to a local chieftain. She would encounter horrific abuse at her master's hands. At the age of mine, she would murder the man, return to her father's village, and burn everything to the ground. Her father would perish at her hands.

When she was eleven, she would be captured off a Glorendine coast and taken in chains to the mysterious Enethian kingdom. This is where the Cult of the Old Gods -- or as Enethian citizens refer to it as the Cult of the Damned -- would shape her into a weapon to be used by the cult.

She would eventually read an old tome that was said to be written by the Old Gods at a leyline where the veil was weakest between the Arathean Plane (the mortal plane) and the Death Plane. This allowed her to commune with a pair of interdimensional beings. Beneath their guidence, Ellarian would rise through the ranks and become the High Seer, remake the Cult into the vision that the "Old Gods" gifted her, and set out to capture the Child of Prophecy who would be able to open a rift between the Arathean Plane and Death Plane, allowing the "Old Gods" to step forth on Cirel.

Jhaer's favorite food is anything sweet.

H is for Harold Sigurduson, the mentor character in Pale Fire. Sorry that I do not have an Artbreeder portrait of him yet.

cw: death

Harold is one of the oldest characters in Pale Fire. At the time of his passing, he was sixty. He didn't die of natural causes, but he died defending a group of civilians from the advancing Olessan army.

That is the thing about Harold. He may be a high-ranking officer in the Glorendine Army, as well as a high-ranking member in the Order of the Lotus, but he is motivated by honor. Anabelle, the protagonist, doesn't trust him, though. She sees him as manipulative and thinks that he is taking advantage of Seamus and his distress over leaving the Glorendine Shadow Council.

As Seamus keeps Anabelle's secret, Harold is one of the ones who knows that she is actually a member of the Olessan Shadow Council. The other two are the leader of the Order of the Lotus and Wray Svenuson who is Shae's best friend.

Harold also teaches Seamus on how to control his magick, finessing his skill. As part of the military, Harold had to take courses on body magick. He is able to bolster his constitution, as well as call upon a skill known as battle rage. Harold is also able to use this master to alter his muscles, but if he utilizes this too much, it can cause the muscles to tear or cramp.

Like his superior Torstein Ulfuson, he likes the finer things in life but doesn't look down on those who live in poverty. He grew up in Southern Glorendt and worked his way up through the ranks of the military.

P is for Palar, from an untitled manuscript in the Dragon Chronicles trilogy. This is another character that doesn't have an Artbreeder portrait.

Palar Draig is the son of Beatrix and Brennan Draig. Like his parents, he is a silver dragon who often assumes a humanoid form. While his father likes to take the form of a middle-aged man with flowing silver hair and grey eyes, Palar prefers a younger appearance. He often appears as an athletic man with crimson hair and brown eyes.

Palar is gay. I had been debating whether or not to make him that or Ace but decided to do that for his younger sister, Aldrien. In the Silver Dragon society, it was not uncommon for same-sex relationships to occur, as well as a dragon being asexual. Palar has a mate whom Brennan looks like his own son. The mate does not have a name yet, but he was from a prominent silver dragon flight.

Hey, NL! :D If you're still doing Alphabet Soup asks: D, H, and O?

Hi, Jax! I am. Thank you so much for sending this in, and I hope that you are having a wonderful day.

I apologize for this being so late. I'm going to answer these for Pale Fire, my high seas dark fantasy set around the same time as Cold as Ice. None of these have any Artbreeder portraits created for them yet.

D is for Declan Saeruson, a flat character in Pale Fire.

Declan Saeruson was an officer in the Glorendine Army. He has made a name for himself in the 100-years war. He was born in the southern part of Glorendt and has a very thick accent. Declan is the eldest son of two children.

His mother was from a gentry family, and he lived quite comfortably as a child. Although his family worshipped Ludovica and Ludovico, Declan worshipped Raimondo, the god of knowledge.

Saeruson learned the Easterner language and was appointed the Glorendine agent to the Easterners. From his career among the Easterners, he acquired tens of thousands of acres of land in the Eastern kingdom and became very wealthy.

Declan would have numerous children among Glorendine and Eastern women. He would eventually take a young Glorendine seamstress as a mistress.

H is for Harold Sigurduson, the mentor character in Pale Fire.

Harold Sigurduson was an officer in the Glorendine Army, as well as one of the highest-ranking officers in the Order of the Lotus, a secret organization who is said to conspire to control world affairs by masterminding events (based upon the Illuminati).

Harold was born in southern Glorendt to a Glorendine military officer and an unknown mother who was assumed to be a member of the Glorendine royal family.

He would be the one to suggest that Anabelle and Seamus become privateers from the navy, as well as try to have Shae join the Order of the Lotus.

Harold is adept in the healing arts of body magick. He will train Seamus on how to finesse his skills with meager magickal skills.

O is for Olav Yngvuson, a flat character in Pale Fire.

Olav Yngvuson was a Glorendine soldier and spy for the Army during the 100 years war. He would volunteer for intelligence-gathering missions in the Olessan Empire.

He was born in Southern Glorendt to a priest of Noxxus, the shepard of Damned souls. When he was 14, he was sent with his brother to college and excelled at mathematics and literature. He would go on to become a teacher before joining the Glorendine army.

Olav would volunteer to go behind enemy lines and report on the Olessan Empire's troop movements. He would disguise himself as an Olessan tutor by dying his hair and utilizing his talent in body magick to change the shape and color of his eyes.
