Notable Characters - Duchy of Daggerford

Dragon, Magic

The largest of several dragons to find roost in and near the Misty Forest, Aaronarra, also known as the Quarreling Drake was a very old copper dragon said to roost somewhere in the shale cliffs of the High Moor's forested slope. Encounters with the dragon are either spotting him on the wing from afar or, rarely, by merchants on the road who are forced to contend with a cantankerous dragon who has chosen to splay his bulk across the Trade Way in enjoyment of a particular patch of sunlight... hence his nickname.

Elf, Magic

Lord Darfin “Longwalker” Floshin is the eldest child and heir of Elorfindar and Shalamrae. A serious, quiet, “duty first” sort, Lord Darfin was born in the Year of the Toothless Skulls (876 DR), and has never had a wife nor children. In the adventuring days of his youth, when he was known as Darfin Longwalker, he had several lovers (all gold elf females), but has lived alone for centuries on his father’s estate.

Darfin overseas the far-flung holdings of House Floshin in the lower Delimbiyr vale and keeps a close eye on the lands that surround them. He is a wary guardian, giving constant scrutiny to the cycles of living things, the health of the verdant land, and how folk of Daggerford and the farms around can best live in harmony with it (which has often brought him into minor conflict with humans over the size of their herds, burning brush to clear land, improper irrigation, and the like).

Lord Elorshin “Highthought” Floshin is the second child of Elorfindar and Shalamrae, and from his earliest days “different” (a restless wanderer, more interested in the affairs of humans than of elves). Elorshin was born in the Year of the Slaying Spells (976 DR) and spent much of his youth exploring human cities all over Faerûn, when he was known as Elorshin Highthought. He took all manner of lovers, most of them half-elves and humans, during this time, and may well have had offspring, but knows of none. In time, he became known as a tactical genius, capable of directing small bands of adventurers against much more numerous foes to great effect.

During his travels, Elorshin became acquainted with the faith of Vandria Gilmadrith, a relatively obscure elven goddess of the Seldarine most closely associated with the church of Tyr. Now dedicated wholly to Vandria Gilmadrith and “seeing justice rule all things,” has the widest knowledge of Faerûn of anyone in the Daggerford area, and so is apt to be the most tolerant, far-seeing, and “fair” in his views of all local folk.

Elorshin serves his father by overseeing the military defense of House Floshin’s holdings, commanding both the house guard and the hired bands of adventurers that serve House Floshin farther afield.

Filvendor “Lightfoot” Floshin, born in the Year of the Gilded Cormorant (1129 DR), is the fourth child of Elorfindar and Shalamrae and the most tolerant and easy-going of the four. For a time, Filvendor Lightfoot, as he called himself, seemed bent on traveling even more widely than his elder brother Elorshin, but kept falling in love and interrupting his lackadaisical adventuring ways to dally with yet another lover.

His first bride was Ylasmrae Darktreader, a half-moon elf ranger of the Misty Forest (born in 1276 DR, died in 1320 DR). Filvendor married her in 1299 DR, much against Elorfindar’s wishes, shortly before the birth of their first and only child, Kelson “Darktreader” Floshin. Ylasmrae died in childbirth, so Floshin promptly married her younger, human sister Jillian “Forestheart” Darktreader (born in 1279 DR DR, died in 1336 DR), who promised to raise Kelson as her own among the woodsmen and rangers of the Misty Forest.

After a few months of marital strife, Filvendor retreated to his father’s estate, leaving Kelson with Jillian, where he took up with a moon elf chambermaid of his father’s household, the beautiful and spirited Elsarassa Cerinlar (who had wanted to become Elorfindar’s lover, and had been hurt by his kind but firm rejections). Despite Elorfindar’s disapproval (based on Elsarassa’s status as a member of the household staff and penchant for dramatic affairs, not her heritage), their relatively brief union led to the birth of Filarion “Filvendorson” Floshin, before Elsarassa fled Elorfindar’s disapproval with the child to Evereska and Filvendor departed for Waterdeep, where he adopted his father’s habit of taking on many elven, half-elven, and human lovers between expeditions into Undermountain.

Filvendor returned briefly to the Floshin Estate in fall of the Year of the Snow Winds (1335 DR), before continuing tensions with his father once again drove him off adventuring. After battling a remorhaz on the High Moor, Filvendor found a magic sword with a will of its own in the ice worm’s horde. Strangely, he then left his old sword, Kizidathil, a cherished family blade, with tribe of High Moor barbarians before departing for the Inner Sea Lands on some unexplained quest. Divinations paid for by Elorfindar have determined that Filvendor is still alive, somewhere in the Inner Sea Lands, but his current status is otherwise cloaked in magic.

Elf

Lady Shalendra “Dare-all” Floshin is the third child of Elorfindar and Shalamrae, born in the Year of the Restless (1099 DR). She was, from her earliest days, fascinated by human nobility, chivalry, and the honor of elves and drawn to the spirit of adventure, as portrayed in the tales of bards. Upon reaching maturity, Shalendra Dare-all, as she was known, became a daring adventurer, known for taking on any test of mettle put to her.

After her tragic marriage to Maeriloumel Torandrar and century of Waterdhavian life, Shalendra returned to her familial estate, where she now serves her father, dutifully serving in her mother’s stead as lady of the house and administering the household staff. For those who meet her today, Lady Shalendra Floshin, as she is now known, is a quiet, solitary, graceful gold elf, still cloaked in a mantle of lingering sadness and not at all the daring hellion of her youth. However, for those who knew her then, faint traces of Shalendra's impetuous nature and dark humor still appear from time to time.

Deep within the heart of the Misty Forest legends speak of a being known as Duskwing, an immense seemingly intelligent moth whose wings shed silver light from between silk strewn pines.
