History:
Icefalcon?s real name is Lan Al-Kiden. His father, Bronus, was a skilled and well-known warrior. At the age of 4, Bronus began teaching Lan the basics of swordplay. Lan learned quickly and accomplished much for his age. When Lan was 7, however, Bronus was called to fight in the army. He was killed in battle a few months later. Lan stayed with his mother, practicing swordplay in hopes to become like his father. But when Lan was 10, tragedy struck the Al-Kiden family again. Lan?s mother became ill and died within days. Lan was forced out on the streets because he refused foster care.
Lan made a living by stealing small trinkets and the sort from rich merchants. His thieving skills grew and were soon recognized by a small guild of thieves, the Golden Hand. The Golden Hand recruited Lan and gave him the name: Icefalcon for his cool, serene actions and agile movements. Icefalcon soon became equal to many respected thieves. At the age of 15, Icefalcon was promoted to leader of the Golden Hand. He was the youngest ever to be promoted to the highest rank. The Golden Hand prospered under Icefalcon?s leadership. His skills in thieving and swordplay became popular.
Then at age 18, Icefalcon?s world fell apart. The Golden Hand was betrayed by one of its members. Soldiers came to their hideout to arrest the thieves and hang the leader. The Golden Hand fought well but was eventually overcome by force. Icefalcon barley managed to escape with one other, Wil Domanda. Icefalcon and Wil were forced to flee for their lives.
The pair eventually stumbled across a mage?s guild called the Illuminators. The head mage used to be a friend of Bronus and let Icefalcon and Wil take refuge in the guild headquarters. Icefalcon then studied magic; he had always had an interest in magic and jumped on the opportunity to learn. The mages were amazed at how fast he learned. He soon became skilled in magic, equal to some respected mages.
Icefalcon and Wil stayed with the Illuminators for many years. Finally, Wil decided to leave and make a living as a blacksmith. He retired from thieving and learned a legal trade. Icefalcon began thinking as well. He did not want to stay studying books with the Illuminators for the rest of his life. So, when he was 24, Icefalcon set of on his own seeking glory and power?
