__________________IN-DEPTH STUFF

Physical Description
A tall and handsome man with broad shoulders, Calent tends to keep himself clean shaven and wears his hair parted in long bangs cut to his cheek.  He has rich, dark mahogany colored hair and dark green eyes.  His attire normally consists of an outfit dawning the colors of the nation, with greens and blacks. He only wears the finest clothes, but so would any other ambitious noble of his status.  He has a strong jaw, narrow cheeks and thin lips.

Personality
A quiet and snobbish man who is not quick to engage one in personal relations (especially when he is required to display his emotions openly), Calent keeps even the men close to him at a distance, especially after the day his fiance died.  Though much time had passed when he had remained quiet and unheard of for many years, upon his father's illness, Calent stepped up to the challenges of politics and it readied him for his future role as the Duke of Allar- and even later in his life, the Grand Duke of Connlaoth itself. Though normally his presence is only seen during important affairs, most of the time he's spent inside, meticulously calculating his next moves, be it through taxes, conquest, or trade in Allar, and now more recently, for all of Connlaoth.

He has kept a lean alliance among all the other duchies, but keeps his tongue short and civil, and acquaintances at a professional arms length, but well within grasp.  Not too many people know Calent personally, except, as mentioned above, he's seen as very serious and quiet... almost a mystery, almost a bore.

Calent is also very prejudice, believing all mages, criminals and 'outsiders' fall under the same category, and does't necessarily voice this outloud, but sometimes it comes out in his tone and treatment of others.  He is also very snobbish with a very patriotic sense of duty, believing the historical ties with his family and their hatred of mages foreshadows the new path his country ought to take and believes that the country's laws and strictness towards them has been dwindling and the country should resort back to how it was run during the time of Angsar's crusade.


Magic/Abilities
unbeknownst to Calent, he harbors a dark, cursed magic that runs like a poison through his veins. Though it might appear dormant, it seems to strike without warning and when it does, Calent has little to no recollection of what had occurred, except in the nightmares that have been more recently haunting his sleep.  Apparently.. a monster resides within....

Calent is also very well know for his swordsman ship, archery skills and, well known throughout all of Connlaoth for his talents on piano and violin (especially on music he had personally written).

Relationships
His mother died when he was eight, and his father grew ill, leaving Calent to rule as a regent before his untimely passing a year later after he suffered greatly from this unknown disease.

Vesrik- his snot-nosed, pompous (but well suited and well bred) visor

Late Wife: Lady Kathryn; the Grand Duchess of Connlaoth (whom passed in year 10 of the war due to illness)

Children:
Myla- daughter
Hope- (bastard son)

Calent has a mild infatuation for a piratess he met one fateful day by the name of Awiergan, whom is the only one who knows some of the truth behind his secret magics that not even he can believe.

He also has his only friend Audric Molneux at his side, though in recent times, Calent has become rather distant and his friend, ever concerned. He trusted Audric so much that, once becoming the Grand Duke; he personally voted in and appointed Audric to become the next Duke of Allar, despite his visor Vesrik's warnings.

And much later in the war, after surviving the blast at Hellvion Castle, he finds himself sharing a long night of moments with a stranger who just happens to become the mother to his only living son and potential heir.

History
Calent is a quiet noble who has hungry ambitions, one of them being his desire to become the Grand Duke of Connloath, which he plans to acquire through his current conquests and diplomatic connections.   He was always known as one of the more quieter nobles throughout the land, but as his father, the recently deceased Duke of Allar, (a small, but wealthy duchy his family line rules) had become ill, he has assumed more responsibility and has helped aid in Allar's growth financially.

Calent is also known for being more prude (even, it might be whispered, more radically so) against magics (perhaps even to the degree of hate, but that's only speculation, as the duke never admitted to such things, but there had been rumors circulation when his fiance had been murdered.)  He was betrothed to a pretty noble, and perhaps the only person who was able to get close to him, but things turned sour when a rumored love triangle had formed between her and a mage, and ever since then, when mages disappeared throughout Allar, people began to wander the cause, though rumors pointing at Calent were hushed barely a year after they had been born.  Tensions are much higher in Allar towards being a mage, despite the laws not being much stricter than the rest of the land.

Now, taking his view point on mages during his ruling as the Grand Duke; he aims to radically change Connlaoth for the better... establishing not only harsher laws against them, but places to 'encamp' them until a solution can be figured out for their kind.


Calent is an excellent horsemen and swordsmen, unsurpassed in archery and on the hunt.  He's also very detail oriented and can retain a lot of information, particularly when involving politics in Connlaoth (and his favorite past time-... taxes!!).  He is generally well liked by his people, and as of lately, has been seen more of the 'Duke' ruling this location rather than this father (who has recently passed).

Calent also loves music, and spends a great deal of time either reading or playing the violin or piano, mostly emotional pieces that he himself has written.  There are also rumors Calent has been to the Fell... but like all rumors, there is no evidence that this is true....
