CHARACTER BACKGROUND: Raveneye was born into the High mountain People. His father was called EagleHeart, and was the Lord High Protector...his mother was the Lady Claudia, a lovely woman who knew the magic of the Mountains and was known as a healer and more. Raveneye grew into a fine and courageous lad, skilled at hand to hand combat and the use of all manners of blades...but he was best with teh broadsword. As Raveneye grew into manhood, his father began to take him on his journey's from their mountains...for that is the calling of the Lord High Protector, Raveneye learned many of the ways of those not of the mountains. They returned to their mountains at the end of each journey, happy to breathe the pure mountain ari and happier still to be among their people. In the 25th year of his life, Raveneye was called to the altar of the Mountain Gods...EagleHeart already stood there smiling...Raveneye heard his name spoken by a voice like no other he had ever heard. Looking toward the voice, his eyes met with those of the High God. "I am Cernunnos, the Great Father and it time for you, Raveneye, son of EagleHeart to take your role in the world." Then a second voice like the first.."And I am Bran. We call you to the service of the High Mountain People...and to the world." "It is time for a new Lord High Protector. Step forward and take up the Shining Silver Sword."..Raveneye looked to his father, who simply smiled at him and nodded. Raveneye looked at the two Gods and reached forward to grasp the Sword and as he touched it, he found himself on fire....his whole body seemed filled with this searing force. He tried to release the blade. Suddenly he elft a power as he had never felt power and he flet something else...a presence within. The fire subsided and his mind filled with voices of both Gods. "You are Raveneye...Lord High Protector of the High Mountain People. Go forth into his world and protect the beliefs of your people and do so honorably. Defend the defenseless, honor those deserving, fight the powers of darkness and remember your calling for that is how your life and to do otherwise is death. Do so until we call for the return of the Sword. Trust in him, honor him, and he will do the same for you, for you are now brother to the Sword." The voices left him and he dropped to the ground exhausted and as his strength returned he found himself within his father's arms. "You now are one with the Shining Silver Sword my son....it possesses its won magic...it absorbs the strength of magic used against it...and allows you to use that magic to strengthen your own. You have become a great warrior and a swordsman of real skill....the Sword will bring you even greater strength and power as you learn to trust it and meld with it. Go into the far lands, Raveneye and do battle with the darkness and honor those you call friends, and always, always remember who you are and eventually you will discover even more of your destiny."
Raveneye followed his calling for many years...and during those years he became a powerful and mighty warrior. He discovered new friends, and new enemies and in so doing, found a second calling. He was pulled...reluctantly..despite all his strength and power, into the use of magic by a warrior/mage called Shadoweaver. Shadoweaver pushed him to explore his powers until one day, Raveneye's world changed forever as he was filled not only with the power of the sword, but with the magic inherited from his mother and her clan. Raveneye had an epiphany, forced by the work with Shadoweaver where he awakened to the nature of reality and how it may be shaped and changed by will and by enlightenment.
Raveneye trained with the great Shadoweaver until his skills matched her own...and he has since walked the path of both warrior and mage. His travels took him to wars between dark and light and he found himself fighting side by side with the elves led by Rogue and Rubyflame and Silver. Raveneye fought proudly at their side as an equal in both swords craft and magic and was given the title of Elf Friend, a title he wears proudly to this day.
Raveneye was married once. Her name was Ravensheart and she was killed in battle. She carried the FireBlade until her death. That blade chose LadyGreyWolf to be it's next bearer and there is a strong connection between GreyWolf and Raveneye through their blades, but there is also a very strong personal bond. That bond led to the birth of Talon, their young son who abides with his mother in the GreyTower.
