"Ancient Archer sights an arrow Warping the weft and pulling the weaves Days of Aelfing yore sought in furlough Past years of strength he sought to retrieve Turning his people from their barrow And prevent us all from a Clan to grieve" |
 |
| Ayden is much older than he appears.....chronologically. He spent a few years among his distant Aelfing kin learning to use the innate Magic abilities he inherited from his Aelfing heritage. When he emerged with the Druid Targon from the Aelfing's enchanted homeland he found that a century had passed in the meantime. | |
| A child of the Faendradi Clan, Ayden is an excellent bowman and has several native abilities stemming from three Aeldenaren (Old Blooded) Gifts he was born with. He can change things into other things, deceive the senses, and is gifted with extrasensory perceptions. Able to see a mile and turn invisible, make arrows from twigs, and sense the unseen he is a capable member of the group. | |
| However, his frailty, a preoccupation with his own importance, and an inability to see the bigger picture due to his highly sheltered upbringing can make him a liability in the wrong circumstances. | |

| As the quest of the Nine Arrows progressed, Ayden rejoined the survivors in the climactic battle in Zerlaaga with the sept of Tzoruul worshippers led by Bakuda Rashuda, and involving a Prince of the Landrothi royal family. | |
| After rejoining the group, Ayden soon proved his value as the band's scout and guide. He also improved his mastery of his Aeldenaren Gifts and became very proficient. His contributions to the quest were many and vital, and there were many tight spots that might have proved to be the end for the Arrows if not for Ayden's quick thinking and powerful abilities. | |
| Though his fellow Arrows never developed much of a liking for the aloof Ayden, he did make one true friend on his journey, the Kaer-Naese Totem Warrior Ul-Nar. | |
| If measured in terms of status, Ayden was the most successful of the Arrows as he was the only one to rise to Lairdship. When the quest was finally completed Ayden returned to his Clanhold, and eventually challenged Laird Neirin and won by dint of his Aeldenaren Gifts though he allowed the ancient Laird to retire rather than killing him. In the ensuing vote Ayden won by a landslide and ruled his people tolerably well, opposing the Haelfinans' plans to assimilate the Faendradi and aiding the Druids in their task. | |
