![[doran_portrait.png]] # Overview Rilan Forgeflame is a 47-year-old [[Human]] man, a [[Paladin]] and a [[Knight-Errant]] of [[The Order of the Green Blades]] that trained alongside [[Dalas Greybark]] around [[1458 AoM]], before Dalas deserted the order. Rilan trained under [[Rodrick Stonegate|Sir Rodrick Stonegate]] prior to his death. Rilan eventually (in some order) turned blue, started going by "Doran Iceblood", joined [[The Society of Doors]], and went to [[Haven's Breach]], before disappearing into the [[Northern Valendare Range]]. # Description ## Appearance Rilan is a red haired human man. For some unknown reason, he has turned an icy blue color. ## Personality Rilan has a fiery personality. As a member of The Green Blades from the relatively prestigious [[The Forgeflame Family|Forgeflame Family]], he feels the weight on his shoulders. The pressure he feels to succeed fuels a deadly focus. Rodrick once commented that Rilan has "fire in his veins". ## Gallery ![[Rilan Forgeflame Base-Portrait.png|700]] *Rilan with [[The Crystal Blade, Will Through Sacrifice]] as he might appear if he wasn't blue now for some reason.* ![[Doran Iceblood Pose-Portrait.png|700]] *"Doran Iceblood" casting [[Searing Smite]].* # History ## Early Life ([[1442 AoM|1442]]-[[1458 AoM]]) Rilan Forgeflame was born in [[1442 AoM|1442]] into [[The Forgeflame Family]], who runs the prestigious [[Forgeflame Masterworks]] smithy in [[Respite|The City of Respite]]. He was named after [[Rilan Frosthand]], famous [[The Heroes of The Battle of Respite|Hero of the Battle of Respite]] and founding member of [[The Order of the Green Blades]]. Throughout his childhood, he had a rivalry with [[Dalas Greybark]], they younger son of the less prestigious [[Greybark Steel]]. He was later accepted into [[The Order of the Green Blades]] as a [[Page]] alongside Dalas and their fellow learner, [[Corva Lightleaf]]. Rilan's rivalry with Dalas continued into their knightly training, with Rilan outperforming Dalas in every way except academics. ### [[Training With Rilan]] ([[1457 AoM]]) Rilan was present for [[Rodrick Stonegate|Sir Rodrick Stonegate]]'s inspection of the cohort of pages training in [[Call Keep]]. Rodrick singled out Rilan and questioned his work ethic, his physical combat skills, and the power of his [[Oath|Oath Magic]]. Rilan impressed Rodrick by performing a powerful [[Searing Smite]], destroying a training dummy. Eventually, Rodrick chose Rilan as his [[Squire]]. ### [[Failed Green Blade Escort Mission]] ([[1458 AoM]]) Rilan lost contact with his old rival [[Dalas Greybark]] after his disappearance. Presumably, Rilan continued his training with a new [[Knight-Mentor]] following the death of [[Rodrick Stonegate|Sir Rodrick Stonegate]]. ## Knighthood and The Society of Doors ([[1458 AoM|1458]]-[[1488 AoM]]) Rilan eventually became a [[Knight]] and the wielder of [[The Crystal Blade, Will Through Sacrifice]]. He later secretly became a member of [[The Society of Doors]] and, against the orders of the Order, took [[Squire|Squires]] [[Ravenna Elwood]], [[Marty Greenfield]], [[Caled Farplain]], and [[Carter Blackcreek]] to [[Haven's Breach]] and founded [[The Order of the Green Blades - Haven's Breach Headquarters|The Green Blade Headquarters]] there. Most of his Squires seemed to not know the true nature of their mission. Apparently, he took on this work at [[Balsorym]]'s request, though it's unclear if that's true. At some point, he turned blue and began going by "Doran Iceblood". ## [[The Saucy Individuals Campaign]] ([[1488 AoM|1488]]-[[1489 AoM]]) ### [[Doran Iceblood's Disappearance]] At some point after arriving in [[Haven's Breach]] "Doran" went into the [[Northern Valendare Range]], seemingly to seek out the [[Dwarven Civilization in the Valendare Range|Dwarven Civilization]] there. He commanded his squires to remain behind, but [[Caled Farplain]] did not listen and followed "Doran". "Doran" and Caled did not return and remained missing for over 10 months. At some point during their mission, Caled died, causing a deterioration of Rilan's mental state, leading to [[Rilan Forgeflame's Armor|His Armor]] coming to life, animated with his guilt (which Rilan believed to be Caled haunting him) and attracting [[Specter|Specters]] and a [[Banshee]]. ### [[The Search for Doran Iceblood]] # Inventory - [[The Crystal Blade, Will Through Sacrifice]] - [[Rilan Forgeflame's Armor]]
