Callian "the valiant" Ulster

"'They say Callian showed mercy to a thief he caught in his palace. Oh, he killed the thief. His partner wasn't so lucky. If you pass by the sewers at night, you can still hear him.'"Callian Ulster is the most powerful noble in Tor and presiding marshal of Tor's forces. He's the last remaining son of Aidhon Ulster, a wealthy general from the Thirty Years War. Like his father, Callian is a war-hero. During his exploits in the Second War of the Isles, it's rumored he recovered the Duskstar in a duel with a powerful sorcerer.

As Tor's wealthiest noble, Callian has a reputation for opulent parties and a grand festival every year celebrating the end of the Second War. These festivals are the only time he displays the Duskstar and its powerful magic. Otherwise, Callian spends most of his days in his manor, tending his garden, practicing spells, and dealing with other powerful lords. His lack of ambition seems to be the only thing keeping him from seizing the throne.

Appearance
Callian is a tall man of middle age, still in good shape and bearing a handsome face. His red hair has started to gray, but shows no signs of thinning. He has bright green eyes and a scar on his neck that he covers. Some say he has a white tongue, but few common people have gotten close enough to check.
