Description
Coross Kelson has the full measure of arrogance expected from a member of so eminent a noble house, knowing that he was recognizable as a member of the House of Kelson due to his unusual height and his destinctive violet eyes. Untill recently he in fact had litte else to recommend him. He is a striking figure with his bare chest, revealing a prominent tattoo across his chest and one shoulder and is perfectly capable of giving an absolutely withering look down his aquiline nose at those he deems worthy of his distain. Alternately around his neck or in his arms curls a lizard-like creature covered in downy jet black feathers. Occasionally it raises its head, fixes you with a peircing look from its violet eyes and hisses at you with its tiny yet toothy maw. However abject Coross may have been in the past there is now a new gleam to be found in his eyes and a purpose in his step as he revels in the power which he has so recently discovered.
For generations, the inheritance of the House of Kelson has gone to the eldest child with a talent for the arcane arts. As a consequence, the house has produced many of the eminent sorcerers and archmagi in the world. Coross Kelson was born into this family as the eldest son, but with no talent or inclination for magic. He squandered his life away with few friends. As a consequence he was disowned. He left home and wandered the world aimlessly for a time, attempting unsuccessfully to seek his own fortune. One night, however, as he sheltered in an ancient ruin, a voice in his dreams told him that the power to take what was already his was already in his blood. When Coross awoke, he was a witch, practitioner of the arcane arts at the whim of the voice in the ruins. He now seeks to return to his family and claim his inheritance which he believes is now due to him, pushing aside his misgivings about the mysterious source of his power.
