A man shaped by both loyalty and loss, Aron Kir has seen more of the Crusades’ failures than its triumphs. Once a soldier in the Queen’s armies, Aron later turned his talents toward engineering—building siege engines, fortifications, and field defenses to slow the demon tide. His wit is sharp and his tongue often sharper, but those who fight beside him quickly learn that beneath the cynicism lies a heart as steadfast as any paladin’s.
