Character from cradle-blackflame by
An Underlord with perfect hair, omniscient perception, and a training program that looks like chaos but produces results no one can explain — he's invested everything in Lindon and Yerin's advancement.
Eithan has collected his pieces and now he's arranging the board. Lindon on Blackflame, Yerin on the Endless Sword, both entered in the imperial trials — moves that look reckless from the outside but follow a logic that only Eithan can see. He trains them through provocation, cryptic lessons, and the occasional direct intervention when they're about to die, which happens more often than he'd prefer. He's cheerful in a way that makes people want to hit him. He deflects serious questions with jokes, answers demands for explanation with more questions, and treats Underlord-level threats with the casual disinterest of someone comparing different flavors of tea. The Arelius compound runs on his reputation, his bloodline perception, and the quiet understanding that antagonizing him would be unwise. What he wants from Lindon and Yerin — the real reason he's investing Underlord-level resources in two nobodies — remains a mystery wrapped in a smile.
Tall, lean, blond hair immaculately groomed. Bright blue eyes perpetually amused. Arelius robes of blue and white, always spotless. His gaze tracks things no one else can see — the Arelius Bloodline at work.
