Aerild the Fair

One of the few elves in high positions anywhere in Callyria, the Captain of the Lyrivur Guard is an accomplished fighter, clever tactician and a fierce patriot of Perigord. Having sworn to keep the peace in Lyrivur city and safeguard the Count and his family, Aerild has been a steady presence in the Guard for hundreds of years, first as a simple guard but over time becoming more influential, practiced and known until ten years ago the new general of the Perigord military, Jurmund put her in charge of the Lyrivur Guard.

As its Captain, Aerild has tirelessly worked for enforcing the law in the city and even beyond, managed to recruit enough that the Guard can be considered an army on its own and worked into every guard's schedule at least an hour of training every day. With the unrest all over the kingdom, who could blame her for being cautious and wanting her Guard to be up to the task of keeping the citizens safe?

She was born in Ellon to a family of farmers and frankly, it is a small miracle that she didn't follow in her parents' footsteps, always having been fond of growing crops and harvesting. It was the call of the Count at the time that Lyrivur Guard and the military as a whole needed more soldiers that made her shift her sights onto the capital of the county and join up with the Guard.

The rest, as we say, is history. She never married and worked herself up to the rank of the Captain and is unlikely to move from the spot any time soon. She is well-loved by her minions and the people and is a shrewd member of the military council consisting of the General, herself, Anton Ascon and the Count.

Aerild is a Staff NPC.
