Known Chant

Brigur Hadriel Anduin is a Paladin-Lord of House Anduin in Excelsior, ruling from Castle Ilnuiras, an ancient landed picket keep within the borders of the gate-town to Mt. Celestia.


He is a political figure renowned for declaring the War of Strife and Salvation upon Nullus, a Doomlord. And for leading the reprising strikes on the Alliance of Change: destroying their Marilith General Xul at the Ticking Tree Woods outside Automata.


Recently he has instigated a wheel-wide rallying of the allied armies to strike at Curst, leveraging an influence over the Excelsior military.


Upbringing & History

Brigur is the grandson of venerable Paladin-Lord Boeric Riegon. Son of his daughter, Ghesele, and a Monadic Deva. The Riegon dynasty emigrated to Excelsior during the fall of the Anuirean empire, but the family retains their Regency as blood scions of the shattered god. Lord Riegon occupies a picket keep above the Gate-Town to Celestia, faithful to the God of Leadership, Haelyn. The family is united in cause with the Order of the Planes-Militant.

Boeric Riegon is a devout of the Orthodox Imperial Temple, while Brigur believes in the teachings of the Western Imperial Temple, a schism in the Faith.

On Aebrynis, the eldest grandson will heir forward the lineage of noble families. Brigur was given the surname Anduin after the tribunal of Haelyn and the deva name Hadriel. By this ceremony he was removed from the Riegon line of Anuireans to represent his impurity as something more than human -- but not something better, for Brigur's cousin will heir the lineage forward instead. So named, Brigur holds no claim to regency.

Hadriphael the monadic deva was a soldier of Haelyn’s realm on Mercuria and once a marshal of the Planes-Militant. He was known in his life to lead military response to fiendish incursions on the inner planes. Now a decade has passed since Hadriphael’s crossing into the quaiselemental plane of salt, pursuing a worm-like entropic devourer. The prayers of Haelyn’s faithful are full with hope of the deva’s return.

As each of their kin, monadic devas have their assigned role: to watch over the monad, the indivisible, the material elements of the multiverse. They are those aasimon sent to fight evil amongst the Inner Planes. Some are dispatched from the Upper Planes to act in the name of good against foes hiding amongst the elements, while others are regular servitors of those powers of Good that dwell within the elements: Ahto, Geb, Shu, and other such gods. They act as both soldiers and diplomats, seeking war and peace interchangeably as befits the situations they find themselves in. Monadic devas have dark brown skin, jet hair, and piercing green eyes.

Appearance

A gallant young man with precisely styled night-colored hair and determined eyes of emerald, flecked impure by streaks of hazel. He speaks kindly but with brevity, a dialect empyrean. The health of his flesh and the caliber of his muscles leaves no question: an upper planar bloodline courses within and bolsters him. With its vitality he reaches a height of 6'3 and hides beneath a cloak strong feathered wings, their plumage the golden-cloud pinions of Mercuria skies. The shine of the Mount rests its glow upon him, catching his hair and eyes with a gleam of the Heavens -- a deva.

On the contrast are mortal qualities to the figure: a tendency to restlessly distract with nearby objects, a voice at once seconded by greatness of the Hebdomad and then again obvious in its youthful human character. He wears scrapes and nicks on his thick forearms, the consequences of aspirations in carpentry and planar expedition.

He is a paladin, this assertion being told by the prominence of a holy symbol: the Sword and Sunburst emblazoned upon the fashions of his chest when he is clothed and strung from a cord on his neck when he is not. His wear is a mix of simple plush fabrics and engraved traditional craftsmanship of the Anuirean Empire of prime-world Cerilia.
