NAME: Aleron Robert Anguis Darton AGE: 35 NATIONALITY: Free Marcher, Kaiten RACE: Human OCCUPATION: Seeker of Truth |
HEIGHT: 6'1" BUILD: Muscular and Trim HAIR: Blond EYES: Ice Blue BEARING: Stoic |
DISTINGUISHING FEATURES: Startling ice blue eyes, same as his sister's. Minor scars, nothing too notable. Almost always in armor, well-dressed when not. Tall. Described by others as ruggedly handsome but with refined features. Holds himself proudly but also seems unflappable. |
Status
At present, Aleron is escorting his lady mother the Dowager Baroness Marlie Darton to her family's estates in Rieumont. He will be traveling to Skyhold after to seek out Seeker Pentaghast and confirm that the Divine did, in fact, order this Inquisition. Also to find the truth regarding the late Lord Seeker nullifying the Nevarran Accord.
Reputation
He's a Seeker of Truth, and a more stoic fellow you're not likely to meet anywhere. Aleron is serious, almost to a fault, and doesn't let something go until he's gotten to the bottom of it. Despite having widespread family of noble blood in both the Free Marches, and some in Orlais, the man is not known to have stepped foot on his family's doorstep in more than 25 years. Almost like he's avoiding "home". Has been seen wearing a wedding band, but never speaks of a wife.
To the casual observer, he always keeps to himself, never cracks a smile, takes his drink in moderation. If he's not in armor (and he's almost always in armor), his clothing choices are tidy and unassuming, though of cut and fabric suited to a noble or family of great affluence. Once in a great while, someone claims to have caught him staring wistfully at a miniature oil painting he keeps tucked inside his breastplate. He's never been seen losing his temper, though there is a curious rumor about Aleron having slugged a drunk Templar, putting the slob on his ass. He has been noted to be found brooding alone, almost equal to the time he puts in praying every morning and evening. Some people claim he's been found to be more animated inside a library. Whether true or not, his love of reading isn't a secret and when not training or linefacing at heresy, he's got a book in hand. He does have a curious habit of either sighing heavily or snarling at letters from home before consigning them to the fire... if he bothers reading it at all.
There is talk of his twin sister being a baroness in Kaiten. Lady Ravonild Darton is full into the thick of the society of the Free Marches with a reputation of being very wild since her late husband passed. Lovers, intrigues, scandals abound in a swirl around Aleron's twin. In contrast, his reputation among those who have met him is that he is a calm, rational, temperate man deeply devoted to his faith and to his duty. Those who know him very well realize he missed his calling as a scholar, though he never complains and stoically endures anything thrown at him.
Hooks
Ties to his expansive family: Dartons in the Free Marches, du Guilles in Orlais. (He loathes the Game but realizes he's still a pawn in their machinations.) Asking after any of his three cousins sent to the Circles: Montsimmard, Kinloch Hold, and Hossburg. Discussions of a scholastic nature will draw him out of perpetual lineface. Same for theological discussions though he's a hardliner for remaining true to doctrine. Training yard funtimes. Asking if any of the rumors are true. Anyone willing and able to draw him out of his solitude.
