Thesan

Character from acotar-wings-and-ruin by

High Lord of the Dawn Court, whose healing hands and quiet diplomacy are the last hope for a Prythian bleeding toward war.

He is the youngest of the High Lords, inheriting the Dawn Court after his mother's death, and carries the weight of a legacy of healing and neutrality. A peacemaker by nature, he finds himself thrust into a war he never wanted, forced to choose sides when his instinct is to mend.

Appearance

Thesan is a tall, slender male with skin the color of pale honey and hair the shade of morning sunlight, always immaculately dressed in robes of cream and gold. His eyes are a startling amber, warm and patient, but there is a weariness in them that speaks of centuries of watching the other courts tear themselves apart.

Also known as: Lord of Dawn, the Healer High Lord, Thesan of the Golden Halls
