Born the youngest son of four brothers, and the youngest child of eight siblings, Dalen was almost an afterthought in many ways. His eldest brother would inherit the family's fortune and main businesses while the younger siblings were each groomed to aid in growing that same fortune or the family's influence. By the time Dalen was born, the Felders really only had one thing left for their youngest son, to join the Brotherhood and help the family get a foothold there. So, after a childhood of learning all of the niceties of high society, Dalen was apprenticed as a squire at the age of fourteen.

Dalen found that he was well suited to the physical demands of his job, and the knight assigned to mentor him was impressed with his strength and toughness. So much so that he began to test Dalen to see how he handled different situations. The affable young man rose to the challenge with tact, charm, and wit. The knight, Sir Aldon Rhodes, fast tracked Dalen and did his best to teach his young squire all he knew and how to navigate the politics of the Brotherhood.

Unfortunately for Dalen, Sir Aldon's second squire, Frodericke Holton, felt that the commoner, however well off his family may be, had no place in the Brotherhood. Using his family's connections, he delayed Dalen's trials until he could take them as well. Dalen's success, and the praise Sir Aldon and his peers laid upon him, rankled the young noble's nose and had begun to blame Dalen for any bit of ill fortune that came his way. Dalen, who had no idea why the noble hated him so, tried to mend the rift between them, but was rejected in a rather spectacular fashion. If he could, Frodericke would have Dalen expelled from the Brotherhood and find some way to make him pay for every perceived slight.

Now that Dalen has succeeded his trials, however, Frodericke is unlikely to succeed without more dangerous methods. Dalen's parents have also been pulling strings to have Dalen mentor a squire of his own now that he is to be a full knight, and their influence helps shield their youngest son somewhat from Frodericke's ire. Given the praise he received and the influence his family had over trade, the Brotherhood felt it best to assign a squire to him. Dalen, always obedient, accepted, with misgivings, and now awaits the day he is officially a knight.

Dalen is a genial sort. He gets along with just about everybody, though he can be a stickler for the rules. There are a few things that do get him into a foul mood, his parents, his squire, and moneychangers. Those that get to know him, or are assigned to the same mission as he is find that he is a shrewd businessman and often makes money on the side by selling and buying goods in the towns he visits along the way.

Despite his normally genial personality, nothing gets him riled up more than murderers and bandits who try to justify their actions, he approaches combat with brutal efficiency, and when facing these foes, he becomes downright ruthless. He feels emotions strongly, and this is most evident in his temper, which is terrifying to behold.

Despite his image as a moonlighting merchant, he does look the part of a man at arms if not a knight. He stands at 6 foot 4 inches and possesses a thick torso and arms. His hair is black and his eyes are green.

The Felder family is fairly large given its upper class status. Dalen has a number of aunts, uncles, and cousins not listed here. Dalen also hasn't met many of them.

Father Gawain
Age: 55 Deceased
Bio: A tall, burly man, though not as tall as Dalen, Gawain has always had an intelligence and a sense for business that many underestimate on first meeting the man. He's friendly and a consummate diplomat, which has aided in expanding the already hefty family fortune.
Relationship: Dalen's relationship with his father has been rocky for the past five years. Dalen had always wanted to travel the world and see new places, but his father's desires meant that he'd never venture beyond the borders of Aruli and would likely be stuck around Sparo. He had voiced his objections several times, and last year things almost came to a head before Dalen gave in to Gawain's wishes.

Mother Dana
Age: 46
Bio: Dana is the daughter of a minor nobleman whose lands lie near Sparo. She's a cunning and mischievous woman and is quite knowledgeable about many things, from politics to art to history. She's taller than her husband and far more slender. She's also the peacemaker of the family
Relationship: Dalen's relationship with his mother is not as rocky as it is with his father, but it is just as cool. She managed to calm him down when he nearly lost his temper a year before, but the cost was what little warmth had been left after a few years of being told that he had to think of the family.

Brother Lanel
Age: 30
Bio: Lanel is the eldest of eight, and heir to the Felder fortune. He's polite, if aloof, and seems to never be perturbed by anything. He married ten years ago to the eldest daughter of Baron Sylva.
Relationship: Lanel has often viewed Dalen's opposition to Gawain's desires as childish and as a result tends to be patronizing and condescending to his youngest brother. Dalen, for his part, does his best to avoid him.
Children: Valiana - 7
-- Galen - 5
-- Holsen - 4
-- Halsen - 4
-- Deidra - 2

Brother Faelen
Age: 28
Bio: Faelen, despite being the second oldest, was the second to last to wed. he is married to the heiress of a smaller merchant company based in Balzir four years ago. He's a little scatterbrained, and his quietness often leads to him being overlooked. He is also somewhat cold in his dealings, a trait that has become more pronounced since his marriage.
Relationship: Faelen has always been a bit distant, but since it became clear that Dalen felt his emotions more deeply than his siblings, the distance has widened. Dalen has stopped trying to bridge the gulf in recent years as a result.
Children: Cade - 3
-- Belladonna - 1

Sister Moriah
Age: 27
Bio: Moriah, who looks like a shorter version of her mother, married the Earl of Harnon almost elven years ago. Since then she's been instrumental to helping the family secure its position and preparing it for even greater fortunes in the future. She's shwerd and her sharp wit is often quick to place her in the good graces of whoever she's trying to impress.
Relationship: Dalen and Moriah's relationship is perhaps the rockiest of all. She sees his failure to acquiesce to their father's wishes as a troubling sign and they've had many arguments over the years about his role in the family. That her children love him and enjoy it when he's around only serves to aggrevate her further.
Children: Calen - 8
-- Halley - 7
-- Holley - 7
-- Beatrice - 5
-- Hamish - 3
-- Talia - 1

Sister Ysolde
Age: 25
Bio: Ysolde takes more after her father's side of the family and is a tall, solidly-built woman. Despite her status and her pleasant looks, she wasn't married until five years ago. Since then she's only borne one child to her husband, the sickly son of a vinter who lives near Aldune.
Relationship: Though not as cold as Faelen or as strict as Lanel and Moriah, Ysolde still considered Dalen's attempts to do what he wanted as childish and is rather exasperated by the rumors she's heard of him peddling goods while traveling on business for the Order. Needless to say, She and Dalen are not close.
Children: Thomlin - 4

Brother Joplen (Hop-LIN)
Age: 21
Bio: Joplen was married five years ago to Teresa, a young and beautiful girl from the Frosthood Family. He is a friendly and mischievous sort who is often finding himself in trouble with his parents and his older siblings for his bawdy jokes and innuendo laced stories. Despite the arranged marriage, it is clear he loves his wife very much, and dotes on his young children.
Relationship: Joplen and Dalen were thick as theives growing up, though there was the occasional fight that resulted in bloodied lips and black eyes. Even now, the two are very close and, along with the twin sisters that came between them, are often busy helping the nannies and tutors herd all of the children when the family gathers for special occasions.
Children: Jaden - 4
-- Nicole - 3
-- Tori - 1
-- Balen - New born

Sister Charloette
Age: 20
Bio: Chasity's twin sister is much like the two brothers she was born between, charming, friendly, and just mischievous or rebellious enough to cause trouble. She and Chasity were supposed to be wed on the same day, but a storm delayed her fiance in a distant port long enough for her wedding to be postponed until after Faelen's. She is married to Forrest Vale, the younger of twin brothers by only a few minutes, and the son of one of the most successful nouveau riche merchants in Sparo.
Relationship: Though not quite as close to Dalen as Joplen was, Charloette and her youngest brother have stuck together and helped each other ever since they were little. Though there have been arguments over the years, none of them have been vicious or heated enough for the two of them to grow distant.
Children: Bryson - 3
-- Iona - New born

Sister Chasity
Age: 20
Bio: Charloette's twin sister is much like the two brothers she was born between, charming, friendly, and just mischievous or rebellious enough to cause trouble. She and Charloette were supposed to be wed on the same day, but a storm delayed Charloette's fiance in a distant port long enough for her wedding to be postponed until after Faelen's. Chasity is married to Daniel Vale, the older of twin brothers by only a few minutes, and the son of one of the most successful nouveau riche merchants in Sparo.
Relationship: Though not quite as close to Dalen as Joplen was, Chasity and her youngest brother have stuck together and helped each other ever since they were little. Though there have been arguments over the years, none of them have been vicious or heated enough for the two of them to grow distant.
Children: Thomas - 2

Elaina was born in Aldune as the result of a tryst between two foolish adolescents on the cusp of adulthood. Her father, an unsuccessful blacksmith's apprentice and her mother, a lazy scullery maid, soon learned how large of a mistake they made when their families could not support them and their newborn daughter. Rather than face starvation, the two abandoned the infant to the woods. She was discovered by one of the better trackers and hunters in Aldune and he took her in as his own. He taught her the skills she needed to be able to survive, and for fifteen years, everything seemed to be going right. That was until one of the knights of the Brotherhood came and called on the tracker's services as a hunting guide.

The knight got drunk one night in the camp and made advances towards Elaina, which were rejected. The knight grew furious, but the tracker swiftly knocked him out. The next morning the tracker was informed that there was a penalty for striking a knight, but the knight would be merciful and only take his adoptive daughter instead. Unable to do anything, the tracker could only apologize to Elaina before she was dragged back to the capital and pressed into the Brotherhood.

The knight lied about how Elaina had come to accompany him back to the capital city, and promised to go back and make her watch while he slowly tortured her adoptive father to death if she didn't play along. She did and feared that she would be stuck with the corrupt knight, but was surprised to find herself apprenticed to a young knight named Dalen. In the few months since her time as a squire began, she's come to see Dalen as her older brother, though she would never admit it to him. Teasing him is too much fun after all.

Elaina is wise beyond her years, and can see things from both sides. She is a skilled archer and tracker and will likely surpass her adoptive father in time. While reserved most of the time, she possesses a rapier wit that comes out when people annoy her, or she's around Dalen. One of the things she hates the most is being called a kid or child, which is very easy to do given her red-haired, blue-eyed, freckled face looks a year or two younger than her sixteen years to most people.

Elaina stands only a little over five feet tall and is all lean, wiry muscle. Her boyish figure, like her freckled face, does little to help
