Aiden

THE WAXING MOON OF EARTH, PASHAN. You have been touched by a powerful being, an agent of Pashan, called Ty-Abo the Rooted, one who speaks the language of all that grows, withers, and returns to the forest. You are in the blooming of youth, a carefree time of wildness and living in the moment, but the seed has already been sown that will come to fruit in the long term. There is a greater plan for you in the long term. And you are not the only one in the city of royal birth to have been touched by Ty-Abo.

 — Faron the Seer, Servant of Skura

Aiden is a Moru Kel native, who works at the Lakeside Occult Society for a divinier named Salaya. As a 15 year old, he wears a fancy coat that’s a couple of sizes too large for him (probably lifted from one of the patrons of the Rose Theatre). Aiden sometimes carries a stylish cane, which seemingly appears out of nowhere.

Skilled at dice, Aiden is not above conning his associates out of their last copper — indeed, he won his ticket to the Symposium from Tannish in a back-alley dice game. Aiden’s closest friend at the Lakeside Occult Society is Zuri, a goliath girl about 3 years his younger.

At the Symposium of Wonders, Aiden received a gift from the wizard Ammon: a glass globe which contains unusual weather and light. Years later when he met Ammon again, he learned that it showed the weather in a location far to the north, including radiating sunlight based on that location’s daylight hours.
