The History of the Ikin Family

[Kevin Ikin Amon]

A long arduous trip from their homelands had found 5 children struggling to even meet their destination. The five remaining children of the Ikin family. Baromir, the oldest, was a tall slender male of elven descent. He stood at 6'2" and was roughly 18 years old.. his hair was blond and long and his manner very kind and protective. Kevin and Caelan were the next.. they were twins, Caelan being born 5 minutes before Kevin. They were half-elves as their father was not of elven descent. They were only 15 and were forced to leave, their only protection being Baromir. Kevin stood at 5'11" and also had blond hair but kempt short and his life to this point was all about impulse. His twin sister, Caelan was the opposite she was very serious and calculated in everything she did. Of course their appearance was similar.. although she was only 5'7" and her hair was light brown. The next child was Raven, she was only 12. She was five feet tall and had black hair and very fair skin. She was the dreamer. The last child was David.. being only 9, this trip was roughtest for him. He had black hair as well.. and he was definately the clown of the group.
This trip had spanned 100's of miles and three attempts by bandits. Kevin and Baromir were worn to the bone trying to protect the others. They had no choice but become men on the journey and it had worn on them. Dirty, grimy and beat up they could finally see the limits of RhyDin across the plains. Their trip had finally ended..

Out of the Frying pan and into the Fryer..

They arrived in RhyDin and found conditions not much better then the conditions of their trip there. Soldiers would wipe out women and children for looking at them funny and crime seemed to own the land. They had no choice but to assimilate and take on the world as a family. Baromir became a ranger and brought home food and wares by protecting the innocent. Kevin chose to steal from rich soldiers along with his buddy QuickPick. Caelan took care of the younger children and the managed to make ends meet.
Three years had passed and Kevin was cornered by soldiers after a botched theft. Instead of killing him, they decided that a man with such talents might be useful and made him a solider in FOES. Seeing all the evil atrocities at the hands of evil soldiers, Baromir came to him one day and made him see his error.. Kevin knew that if he left, they would kill him so he did the only thing he could.. make his own army to fight them. With the help SyrJahnny and Aramada.. The Peregrine Order began. People fed up with the atrocity they had seen joined in droves and one of RhyDin greatest wars ensued. The Peregrine Order took on the two armies that plagued RhyDin for too long.. FOES and SOULs. QuickPick joined up with Sinderia to form the Lights of Locken which eventually pitched in. Blood stained the streets for 3 long years.

The best of times.. and the worst of times..

The wars raged but no one was the victor. The younger Ikin children grew up and joined the fray, and Baromir began to overtake the leadership of PO. The leaders got desperate seeking some sort of end to this conflict. Kevin decided to focus his energy on SOULs the smaller of the two groups and the PO quickly began to decimate them. All would have been lost for SOULs until Kevin went aftertheir leader Azriella and had finally met his match.. ironically.. he was spared death. Azriella knew what she was doing as Kevin lost faith in his ability and turned leadership over to Baromir.
Taking a backburner role from this day forward a new problem arose. One of his enemies had sent an assassin known only as Terith to dispatch the Peregrine Order one by one.. PO's membership was dropping like flies and with Baromir on the borders, Kevin knew he would have to fix the problem himself.
He knew he was the next marked man, so he set up a trap. He left the Red Dragon Inn to go to his home, knowing Terith would show up.. only Terith didn't realize that Kevin was not alone. Upon Terith's arrival five guards plus Kevin and Caelan restrained him. Terith's life was spared and he swore allegiance to Kevin and the PO. A few months later, Terith married his only true sweetheart, Caelan.
