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. )
I remember that, and I remember thinking that something that’s designed to explode and send part of itself rocketing off with GBH in mind was not, perhaps, the best thing to use as your first ever test of teleportation…
She’s only been in the basement since shortly after the big hurricane. At most a hundred years, since the ruins of the house are still there. I remember Miko telling Etain and Adah how people hadn’t moved back, but the resorts had rebuilt in the Maris Islands. Nin-Banda will be current on language.
Her slang would be terrible. Unless language here is in some way standardized, she would be caught in the undertow of linguistic drift.
Someone time-warped from the 1918 US would be bale to make themselves understood and understand most of what they hear in the 2018 US, but they would have lots of “what did you say?” moments.
That dazes Nin-Banda as going into her tank in 6553. So, she is only 11 years out. 😉
That also means that she has a reasonably current ID. Yes, when you hit your 60’s, 11 years is just a passing fancy 😉
Ian did it in one of the earlier comics. He did his first teleport with a 9mm parabellum cartridge from the surface of a bar to his hand.
