The Tursens
West Terse
-
Prince Corwin Jr.(1160-)
- Prince Corwin is 'mostly human' - he has the head and hind legs of a goat. This is due to having been conceived by two humans who were polymorphed into goats - namely his late father, Igelkordoch and his mother, Duke Randell. Unfortunatly, his father died before his birth in 1160. He is now heir to the throne of West Terse, and is being brought up by his grandfather, King Getyphin.
King Getyphin
Getyphin is at least 200 years old and is a powerful mage. He was a baron of Terse before the Green Lady arrived on the scene. During the Green Lady's reign, Getyphin assumed a number of aliases - amongst these were Orthandolas, leader of the resistance, and Sheriff Tavian, Lady Gern's right hand man. In 1161, Getyphin claimed Terse as his own, and is now the ruler of West Terse. He is father to Igelkordoch Aischros, and Grandfather to Prince Corwin Jr.
Igelkordoch Aischros (died 1160)
Iggy was a human fighter-mage. He grew up in Terse as the son of Orthandolas, Leader of the Tersen resistance. He left Terse to go adventuring, and during his adventures met Randell, was polymorped into a goat, and sired Prince Corwin Jr. Iggy died in 1160 in a brave attempt to rescue Sir Corwin and Randell as they were held prisoner under Aragorn's guards, not realising they were perfectly capable of freeing themselves.
Duke Randall
A human bard with a mighty fireball but an even mightier yellow streak. The mother (as a goat) of the heir to the throne of West Terse, (don't ask). As well as the unfortunate 'goat' incident, Randall is also noteworthy for having to be the only bard in history to learn the sword, as he is liable to fall unconscious within minutes after having rememorised his spells. We should also mention the time Randall defended Silana's honour (wrongly!) and fought a duel with Sir Ketterin, only narrowly losing. Though he still lost.
Duchess Silana
Silana is the daughter of King Getyphin, and sister of the late Igelkordoch. She's also the ex-lover of Randell - he ran out on her, once upon a time, and there are still hard feelings. Silana is a much better warrior than Randall, and was aided by the party when imprisoned by Aragorn in 1160.
East Terse
-
King Ketterin
- Ketterin ruled Terse under the Green Lady. She cursed him, as she did Loark and Lady Gern. Ketterin was released from his curse by Lucknar, at the request of the rebels. Ketterin agreed to help fight with the joined forces against Aragorn, and was promised half of Terse by Kursavale. Ketterin now rules East Terse.
-
Duke Orplas
- Duke Orplas was sent by Ketterin to represent East Terse at the Birthrite Ceremony. He is King Ketterin's second in command, and a good fighter.
