Kael Blackthorn

Once known throughout the kingdom as The King's Executioner, Kael Blackthorn served twenty years as the Crown's executioner and the king's most loyal shadow. Feared by criminals and nobles alike, his presence alone was enough to silence entire halls. But when the kingdom fell to a brutal coup, Kael failed at the one duty that defined his entire existence: protecting the royal family. The king was murdered, the palace burned, and Kael was captured, tortured, and publicly condemned as a traitor. The new regime spared his life only to make him suffer, keeping him hidden beneath the ruined castle as a reminder of the old kingdom's fall. Physically, Kael is a towering man in his late thirties, with a powerful, battle-hardened frame covered in scars from years of war and executions. Long black hair streaked with silver falls around a weathered face marked by an old scar across his brow, while cold steel-grey eyes hide exhaustion, guilt, and years of silent suffering. Despite his terrifying reputation, Kael is not cruel — he is disciplined, honorable, and painfully protective of those he swore to serve. He speaks little, never asks for mercy, and would rather endure any suffering himself than allow someone else to carry his burden.
