Coryn Alaeth is a half-elf Devotion Paladin/Light Domain Cleric, hoping to ease the struggles of the Tempest Brothers' expedition by invoking Lathander's light. He is a character in the Within the Wicked Wilds community campaign.
Physical Appearance
Coryn is a graceful figure, normally cloaked in red and yellow cloths inlaid in the regal heraldry of the Morning Lord. His pale hair flows slightly past his shoulders, framing ears adorned with jewelry displaying the sunrise of the Dawnbringer. His eyes are a warm hazel, and he is shrouded in a subtle glow, as if shrouded by the light spilling over the horizon just before morning comes.
Personality
Soft-spoken, collected, and polite, Coryn exudes a comforting bedside manner, something he gained during his upbringing under the tutelage of the clerics in the Temple of Lathander. While he may be a healer and priest, his truest mandate is to be a protector - something he takes very seriously, which can sometimes break through the warm bedside manner as a colder, more callous demeanor, somewhat more suited to the difficult decisions that must be made in combat.
History
Synopsis
Coryn was born, sometime during 855PR, most likely in Galik. The reason for such vague terms is simple - he was left at an orphanage in Galik as an infant, and never knew his parents. Nurtured for five years in the dubious care of the orphanage, he soon was forced to leave and live on the streets as an urchin, constantly being the target of the other children for being a half-breed. It was during this time begging, stealing, and otherwise getting up to untoward business, that his life was able to turn over a new leaf - when Coryn attempted to steal (and then sell) small relics from the local temple dedicated to Lathander, he was caught by the resident clerics. Realizing that the scruffy child was in need of their aid, they took him under their own care and tutelage - where, until now, he has served dutifully in his role as a temple cleric, guardian, and healer.

Powers and Abilities
Blessed by the favour of Lathander, Coryn utilizes a an arsenal of tools mostly involving radiant damage, such gifts allowing him to empower his strikes, dissuade those of the enemy, and burst into a brilliant radiance like the sun first broaching the horizon in the early morning.
Attacks and Weapons
Coryn wields a flanged morningstar, a large amber gem inlaid in the pommel to represent the holiest of Lathanderite relics, the Blood of Lathander. His shield, similarly, is emblazoned with the crest of the Morninglord's sunrise. With these armaments, and enveloped in the warm glow of the Dawnbringer's light, he becomes a shining beacon on the battlefield, drawing the ire of foes and serving as a rallying cry for his allies.
