Blades of Light and Shadow Headcannons

Name: Red Dawmen 

In Love With: Tyril Starfury

Has read nearly every book in Riverbend’s library, however he hasn’t read much since he was 13. 

He and Kade were really close friends with a girl in their town when they were kids, but the friendship deteriorated when she admitted feelings for Red and he couldn’t return them. 

For all of his people skills and previous romantic trysts, flirtatious is the last word to describe him (which just makes Tyril all the more special!)

His adoptive mother worked with healers before she married, and taught Red all she knew about medicine and herbal remedies. The rest he’s learned through trial and error, to Kade’s horror. 

Though they are as different as day and night as you can get, no one questions the strong sibling bond between the two. There were many times Red thought he’d lose his brother to sickness when they grew up, and yet it was Kade who comforted him with stories he’d heard or read. 

On their travels, Red found himself in a drinking contest with Mal, Imurta, and other hopefuls in a tavern. Imurta easily drank them all under the table.

Red has piercings in both ears, but favors his right, in which he wears an industrial, rook, and conch all in silver, and a small gold hoop in his lobe.

He also wears a pendant around his neck that was left behind by his birth parents and almost rarely removes it. 

He has his mother to thank for his physique, as she made Red work in the fields with her until late in his teens. It was the only time Red resented his brother’s health. She’s also the one who first locked his hair. 

Suffers from anxiety and has for a long time, but both Kade and Nia’s abductions sent him spiraling. Otherwise, he hides it fairly well. 

Though he becomes proficient in all his weapons, his favorite is his brawler glove. 

Has a healthy appreciation for nice clothes. Though he had no reason to or the means to wear finery before, he enjoyed dressing up for Undermount’s masquerade. He especially enjoyed it if no other than reason than to have Tyril’s eyes linger on him.
