Player Character from the Far Shores series, previously played by Joey.

Desan died in an August 2007 session, while attempting to assassinate the false Empress, Vengeance in Scarlet Regalia. His death helped convince members of the Chanos Objective conspiracy to aid the Far Shores brotherhood, however. Fate has yet to determine whether he will be remembered as a hero, or as a the traitor he is currently accused of being.

Lineage: Desan is the son of an Air Aspect of respectable Breeding, Tepet Berel Taren, and Nellens Latal, a mortal. His father is still alive, but his mother died in the battle of Futile Blood.

Description: Desan appears to be very average for a Dragon Blooded. Much like the mortal members of his house, his hair is black, his skin is tanned when the season is appropriate, though often a bit more pale then others, his height is around six feet, and his eyes are hazel. When he travels, which seems to be more and more these days, he wears comfortable non descript clothing. He doesn't even bother to carry his mond in an obviously open display like many other dynasts, though he does carry his mond on a chain around his neck. Only the slight breeze that seems to pick up around him on occassion shows him to be what he is. He does not stand out strongly amongst a crowd, and perhaps this is why the leaders of the Berel household choose him to become a spy for their house. Desan learned quickly how to observe without being noticed, and showed great prowess with thrown weapons. It was actually a stroke of both luck and skill that moved him to his current profession. When spying on a member of house Cathak, his motives were discovered, and he had to think quickly. Without more then a moments thought, he swiftly put a dagger through the throat of his target, and fled into the night. His house, impressed with the fact that he was not discovered, decided to alter his position in the house's business, and he became an assassin for hire. Because of this, he maintains two appearances. His first, is the socialite who graduated from the Spiral Academy. His second is the deadly assassin, who represents himself as Shadow Strix. When making arangements for his Assassinations requires him to deal with others, he will wear a mask that appears to be a black feathered strix, as well as tighter clothing, that has less chance of snagging or catching when he has to move quickly.

Equipment: Blue Jade Hearth Stone Bracers Speed of the Skies, Blue Jade Belt of Shadow Walking Stalking Shadow, Blue Jade Vajra Foe Piercing Bolt , Crystal Venom Jewel, Opal of the Hunted, Strix Shaped Flying Automotan Assasin Shadow's Aid, 20 Exceptional Needles, Exceptional Kama, 5 doses of Arrow Frog Venom, 5 Doses of a special blend of Coral Snake, Arrow Frog, and Death Sap venoms.

Roleplaying Notes: You are first and foremost a Tepet. While your skill as an assassin often takes you to work for other houses, you have never accepted an assignment that would hurt your house, and in at least one occassion, the requester of such a task has ended up with an unfortunate accident in their near future. Your goal is simple. Prevent your house from dying completely, and if possible, bring it back to the stature it once held amongst it's peers.

Anima Effect: When Desan's Anima begins to manifest, a subtle breeze begins to circle around him. As it grows stronger, the hairs on those nearby begin to stand on edge as the electricity of the storm begins to manifest and discharge against those who would attack you.

Related Information: Desan's Sifu is Cynis Mond, the Wind Tamer. He does not see him often, but when he does he always tries to garner as much new knowledge as he can. Mond would have him learn all his trades, but Desan has little interest in artificing, though he will happily listen to Mond speak on such subjects as it may contain a secret lesson that he may yet need to know.
