Name: Raegis
Race: saphyne
Talents: anything involving throwing daggers, agility and talking


Describtion:

Age: 18
Height: 1,75m (5´9´´)
Weight: 61kgs (134 lbs)
Eyes: blue, with narrow cat-like iris
Hair: red


Originally a small crying cub which was found during one cold winters night at the door yard by the tavernkeeper Temsu and his wife, nowadays a full-grown male saphyne serving at the same place as a handmaid. Cheerful, talkative and sometimes a bit crazy (eventually lazy, too).

Raegis was one of the saphynes that resembled a human quite much, except several easily spotted features - like cat ears, tail... and perhaps a bit different-looking eyes. But, for a stranger it was rather easy to mistake him for a human in the crowd on the Aiekara streets.
He usually wore a pair of old trousers and a loose waistcoat, only rarely agreed to put on shoes or wear anything tight and/or with long sleeves. He used to say that "too much of clothing kills the freedom." All the time with two daggers behind his belt, especially after several bad accidents happened to him during his late walks through the city.


Backround:
There is nothing known about his parents - except that one of them probably put him on the door yard during the late night of 22th december 700YE. It is hard to tell if it was an intention, but a few moments later, the little crying saphyne caught attention of the inkeepers. Luckily for him, they decided to raise the "kitty" in their tavern and didn´t much care about the several complaints of its visitors about the mess the small Raegis did. Later, despite the saphyne was officially counted as a property of Temsu, he still had more freedom than any of his kind in the city.

When Arvith came to Aiekara and got accomodation in the Full Tankard in 705YE, the young and chatty saphyne quickly befriended him. He and the summoner from Teimzurr spent a lot of time together from now on, either by wandering about Aiekara ("sweeping the city streets," as Temsu´s wife stated after one of their late return after a not so successful fight with a group of street saphynes), the city surroundings ("someone fell on his nose while climbing the trees again, eh?") or simply playing inside of the tavern ("let those saucers alone!!").

During 714YE, after Arvith moved to the students´ quaters of Academy, Raegis continued in visiting him any time he could, even when he knew that the saphynes are not welcome to freely enter and leave the building and the level of magical energy inside the Academy might be dangerous for them. Here he accidentally discovered the truth about his people. Man-created beings used as experimental samples and sources for creating artificial iontae, just like the ones Arvith used...

Despite of his discovery, he still kept visiting Arvith (and even attented a class with him - and soon after it ended he stated that "those lessons are good only for teaching a saphyne how to sleep"). One day, while he was waiting for Arvith´s lesson to finish, he met another saphyne, Eyne, who later became his girlfriend.

No one really knows what happened between him and Arvith during the summer of 717. Their friendship fell apart. The teimzurrian summoner started to react coldly on his presence and soon cut off any contact with him... and Raegis´ attempts to stay in touch with him repeately failed.

It was abound that time when the shadow of Teimzurr came over Aiekara. The imperial army surrounded the city.
Thanks to his reputation and contacts with the regent himself, he was given the command of a small group of troops which was supposed to defend the western gate of the city...

---Stage I.---

...and here, by an unlucky coincidence of events, he also died after suffering heavy injuries from a teimzurr siege hydra.

One of the few positive things is that his body didn´t fall into the hands of Teimzurr mages as the corpses of other slain defenders - a dark mage named Malik Wolfbane together with Eyne managed to get him out before anything what the Teimzurr wanted to do could take place.

He is buried under one of the trees near the southern route to Aiekara.

Also, Malik is currently in possesion of a notebook that appears to be some kind of his diary.


---Stage II.---

Nowadays, Raegis´ girlfriend Eyne is helping Temsu to keep the Full Tankard running, even after the siege. It is said that the regent himself gave her the freedom to abandon the Academy, as it seems that she is bearing Raegis´ children.
