Physical Description
Built tall and lean, Aiden is rather deceptively strong (even before his transformation). Like most of his kind, he's rather pale, but not quite all the way to "ghostly"; paired with pale blond hair and even paler blue eyes, at first glance he had an almost ethereal appearance.
He tends to favor practical clothing, but usually made of quality materials that he knows will hold up. A little bit of style never hurt anyone either.
Personality
Aiden is a fun-loving, bright, easy-going sort of person, which often leads people to believe he may be overly trusting, or even naive. This is not the case, and anyone who might try to take advantage of that will find their misconception quickly corrected.
Magic/Abilities
Aiden has no magical ability (aside from latent fae gifts that have yet to come to fruition), but he does have the "gifts" that come with vampirism: increased speed, agility, and senses, as well as a minor ability to hypnotize people that grows stronger the more he practices it.
Additionally, Aiden emits a sort of chill. When he was first turned, he couldn't control it, but by now he can draw the chill in until it only hovers just above his skin, or send it out in up to a ten foot radius.
Relationships
Eamon and Nicolletta Teiryn, parents, deceased
Liam, younger brother
Cara, younger sister
History
Eamon Teiryn, an Adelan soldier retired from duty due to injury, met Nicoletta Fairchild some thirty-odd years ago. They settled down in the Serenian highlands and had three children, Aiden, Liam, and Cara.
Magic ran in both their families, though Eamon's magecraft was not his fortitude and he rarely used it. Nicki, however, was half-fae, and she practiced her magic regularly, simply for the sake of it, for household chores, and as a way to make a little extra money selling charms and spells to neighbors and such.
Their two eldest children showed no magical aptitude, but even as a baby it was clear Cara possessed a knack for it. Nicki quickly took over her daughter's training, and it gradually became clearer that Cara's "knack" for magic was in fact a predisposition to immense power.
Her brothers, meanwhile, spent a majority of their childhoods with their father, learning to hunt and fish and fight, both with weapons and barehanded. It was rather stereotypical, all told. Only three years apart, the boys seemed to be a bit closer to each other than they were to her sister- at least until Aiden turned seventeen and Cara eleven.
Already obviously growing into a pretty young woman, Cara appeared older than she was in her younger years, and drew some unwanted attention. After begging her brothers to bring her to a town festival, she was accosted by a young man who seemed not to understand the word "no".
Aiden immediately came to his sister's defense, and as always Liam was barely a step behind him. Not one to be outdone, Cara jumped into the fray, and it seemed she'd actually learned quite a lot just from watching her brothers practice.
The siblings gained a bit of a reputation after that, as well as becoming closer to each other. Unfortunately, a reputation can catch the attention of those you might otherwise rather avoid.
Obviously a skilled fighter, and with fae blood to boot, Aiden was tracked and confronted by a strange man when he and his father were out on a hunting trip. The man offered him great power, immortality, in exchange for his service in what he referred to as "what was to come". Aiden refused, and the man attacked.
Aiden was turned into vampire. Desperate, their parents searched for a cure, but found only more danger and heartache. In a little over a year, the search killed them.
Liam and Cara, now nineteen and fourteen respectively, were left with Aiden to fend for themselves. Despite their elder brother's protests, Liam left to continue their parents' search. He kept in contact, but then one day his messages just stopped.
It took nearly two months before Aiden and Cara heard from him again, and that was when a hungry, hollow-eyed wolf appeared at their door, then collapsed into their brother's form. Liam had been in a small village ravaged by a pack of rabid werewolves, and bitten while trying to defend the people.
Convinced what they were would only bring danger to their little sister, the boys left. Aiden traveled north, at first, where the weather offered more clouds to hide the sun for longer periods of time. he avoided his "own kind" like the plague, despite increasing attempts from his vampire creator to contact him.
