Aedem
Aedem Fyrsh, an Elven Pirate. Captain of the Black Star. War Mage, has an owl familiar.
Background
Originally from Ratha. Was training to become a Cleric of Lemicus. Was kidnapped, along with his mother, by the pirate Saller. His mother died shortly thereafter. Later led a mutiny aboard ship, killing Saller with the help of Syeran. Spared the life of Allum, Saller's navigator.
Shark Clan
As captain of the Black Star, Aedem was generally a solo operator. At some point, though, he joined Shark Clan. His advancement has been somewhat frustrated, however, by the fact that he is an elf in an organization in which the upper ranks are exclusively occupied by humans.
As part of Shark Clan, Aedem has been responsible for attacks throughout Qi. In these attacks, books and other papers have often been stolen. Documents taken include: military histories from Tusfaov on M'riss/Mer'Kresh; Rathan birth records.
Uncertain parentage
There are rumors that Aedem is the son of Misdilev Allvar. This is reinforced by translations of a captain's log in which a captive held by Saller is referred to as 'Adam Allvarson'. The captain's log can be found in Ilerthan's manor on Aesry.
Appearance
He has elegant arched eyebrows, pointed ears and piercing jade eyes. His thick brown hair is streaked with gold and tied back with a bejeweled shark tooth isael. He has deeply tanned skin and a lean build. He is tall for an Elf. He appears to be in his prime for an Elf. He is clean shaven. He is in good shape.
