CharactersProposed character
Halven
Working design. New events, appearances, mechanics, and political details remain proposals. See canon ledger.
A small act at the west gate
Halven repairs a deliberately vague travel warrant when Mara leaves the palace. His added destination helps an exiled mother and child pass the checkpoints ahead.
Years on the road
He teaches Pyrrhus to count wagons, choose a campsite and recognize frightened recruits. His kindness coexists with a long habit of deciding what the young man is allowed to know.
Proposed arc
Their reconciliation requires honesty rather than a convenient heroic death. Halven can survive the campaign. His mortality depends on the story and battlefield rules eventually selected for the game, not a requirement to remove every older guide.
