	Deep inside, the ghosts of an unbelievably traumatic childhood haunt him constantly, and are the lens through which he unintentionally views the world. The fleeting joys and sensual pleasures he seeks are nothing but a temporary salve for those old, scabrous wounds, a way of running away from pain he's never truly confronted. He forms attachments readily, sometimes too readily, but love and friendship are, on some fundamental level, inscrutable, even frightening to him. In his mind, every person who claims to care for him has a hidden agenda, or will cease caring once they find out who he really is. Every person he invests his feelings in will eventually hurt him. Even though he desires nothing more than to love and be loved, his damaged heart can lead him to reject or sabotage relationships before someone gets truly hurt. On some level he honestly understands this about himself, as it is a pattern which has repeated throughout his life, but he does not possess the willpower or presence of mind to stave it off. He is instead woefully and fearfully resigned to the assumption that, no matter what happens, he will somehow ruin everything. Recent events in his life have torn the scabs off those old cuts. He has begun to understand the true scope of the tragedy of his family and childhood, and he has, perhaps, not been dealing with it well.

	One day Timeas did not return from a mission. Two weeks after he was expected back, search parties were formed, but none were successful in finding him. They assumed Lord Dana lost, perished somewhere in the wilderness. However six months later he returned to Dana Manor with a stranger on his arm, an alluring avariel sorceress and druidess, belly already swollen with child. Her name was Selooya, and nobody knew who she was or where she came from. Timeas refused to discuss it, even with his closest friends - the issue caused a falling out between him and Lord Edding. It also broke the hearts of all the young noblewomen of Toostan to see their dream husband with some nobody from outside Toostan society. Timeas and Selooya were quickly married, and soon they gave birth to Danielle Dana, a beautiful child who shared her father's dark hair and azure eyes and her mother's sorcerous gift.

	Around the same time a princess named Adathi was born to the King and Queen. ~~Danielle~~ and Adathi were raised together and became close friends and co-conspirators. They often got into mischief together, stealing pastries from the kitchen or hiding from their caretakers, and always sharing the tales of their exploits with each other.

	Her mother, however, was frequently the target of scorn and ridicule. Her presence was offending to the nobility, especially the unmarried noblewomen, as not only was she an outsider, but she also stole the hand of Timeas out from under them. Even more troubling to Toostan society were her strange ways. She studied all sorts of languages and runic magic, conducted druidic rites, and even prophesied terrible events to come. None believed her, thinking she was slightly mad, no matter how insistent she was.		Her mother, however, was frequently the target of scorn and ridicule.

	After a few decades, a second child was born: a son, named Seavien on his day of birth. All Toostan celebrated the birth of Lord Dana's male heir, with banquets and a cask of wine on every street, music and aerial dances, and a stunning fireworks display. Lord Edding would later remark that it was the only time he ever saw Lord Dana cry, shedding tears of joy. Like his father and sister, Seavien had azure eyes and beautiful dark hair. Like his mother and sister, his eyes were flecked with glinting silver. But the joy of his coming was not to last. He was one of the last Avariel children born before a curse rendered the race incapable of reproducing.		After a few decades, a second child was born: a son, named Seavien on his day of birth.

	Seavien is, by almost any measure, a stunningly beautiful specimen of his race. Tall, lithe and androgynous, he moves with a practiced grace, and can seem almost effeminate at times. He has thick shoulder-length, carefully and precisely tousled hair of a rich dark brown. His skin is fair and clean, and his eyes are a piercing azure with silvery speckles and long lashes. His lightly-muscled, slender body acts as canvas to his most striking physical aspect: intricate, winding tattoos in pearlescent white cover most of his body; a curling, shimmering arabesque of stylized arcane runes and sigils.
