Dweller, Part 28

Ian Caladharas

Thorondor “Ian” Caladharas is the 18 year old heir to one of the first of the Merchant Houses. An intelligent, independent teenager; Ian has a tendency towards irreverence and and frustration. In all honesty, he doesn’t care what his grandfather says he is heir to, he just wants to have a normal life. Or at least as normal a one as possible. (As my skills improved I made some revamps to this characters appearance to reflect aging and such as well. The top picture is how he is currently modeled. )

    Two things here: cultural conflict (Targeter, Ian, and Dweller) and Triage (save those who can be saved). If Ian is going to be a truly effective leader, he needs to learn Triage. The best example I can think of off hand is Winston Churchill. Thankfully, he’s not there yet.

      The concept of triage is something I learned really early on. Ian is still young yet, though with the way he is, I suspect it may end up being a concept that he’ll always have trouble with.

    Yeah, for Ian, “nobility obliges” really means something. He can be pragmatic and make hard decisions or he would not have lived this long. But his compassion often (not always) makes him wonder if he could have done better, especially involving people he’s responsible for.

    Targeter is highly compassionate as well, but her less sheltered early life and experiences as a mercenary have tempered that aspect of her. Her sense of responsibility and loyalty is not as far-reaching as Ian’s.

    The Dweller’s compassion is remarkably intact for a near-immortal who’s seen so much. That’s probably why he’s still as sane as he is: he still feels a genuine connection to mortals despite their ephemeral nature. But triage with regards to entire societies is not a new concept for him.
