Corwyn of Shainsa

• a.k.a. "drytown sissy"
• Age: Looks to be 23
• Marital Status: Single
• Occupation: Looking for one.
• Former Occupations:
• Residence: Used to live in Shainsa but got away, now he lives in Arilinn.
• Laran gift and laran training: Something that looks like the Ridenow gift (though he isn't a Ridenow), strong telepathy.
• Politics: Same as every drytowner, except that he's in favor of women's rights.
• Personality: Raised as a drytowner, thinks like a drytowner but his empathy and his deceased twin sister gave him consideration for women.
• Strengths: Good tempered, can control his emotions.
• Weaknesses: Bad reputation (sissy! sissy!). Not muscular. Almost mute.
• Combat training: Good (had to defend himself against the ones who called him a sissy).
• Horseback riding: Excellent
• Appearance: Corwyn looks like an emmasca, though he isn't. He's tall, very thin, with long, dark-silvery hair, he's half-chieri.
• Romantic relationships: None (women don't want to go out with such a sissy).
• Friends: No one in the drytowns, his chieri mother and her family.
• Pets: A banshee named Bauhaus, two ravens called Whiskey and Speed, a horse called Valor.
• Hobbies: Horseback riding, teasing women (though he never seduced one).
• Other Information: Corwyn is the son of a Shainsa lord and a chieri. His father wanted a laran-gifted son for succession. He had twins: Corwyn and Shaya. They were both strongly laran-gifted thanks to their chieri mother, but they had threshold sickness at the same time when they were 12. Shaya, in an act of madness, attacked her brother with laran and almost burnt his vocal cords. So the father decided to send Corwyn to his mother's family house and left Shaya unattended. She died when Corwyn recovered. Corwyn had a close relationship with his sister and was very affected by her death-- that is the reason why he respects women, unlike his fellow drytowners who like to hit him and nicknamed him "sissy".
