Tristram "Nexilitas" Whitestrake is an Arannese archivist, royal advisor, and statesman. One of the early First Era settlers, he founded Aranna on 1M/1D/1E (August 16th, 2023), initially leading it as a self proclaimed prince of the realm.

He played a critical role in forming the colloquial West Cinder and was involved in a number of regional incidents, including battles, skirmishes, and border disputes.

He keeps much of his personal life, relations private, instead choosing to display primarily his political positions and state work.

Tristram is an accomplished author, archivist, and historian, having one of the most extensive bibliographies on Cinder, with works relating to history, religion, and military strategy and regulation.

Life & career

First Moons

When the First Era dawned on the realm of Cinder, Tristram took part in the settlement of the land, opting to travel Northwest through birch forests he perceived as boundless. Journeying through various testifikan villages, he ended up settling on a remote cliffside on the shores of the Evonian Sea, naming the land Aranna.

In his earliest visions for his future, Aranna was meant to be an autonomous city-state of a greater state, thus he decided to develop a small portion of the overall region in anticipation of said greater state to bring its authority to the land. This development appeared through rapid netheritization of the Arannese economy and introduction of Testifikan servitude. The Testifikans brought to Aranna were originally from across the bay to the west of the settlement, in modern day it is known as Arboria. Seeing the necessity in establishment of a reputation for his city, Tristram chose to use his labour to provide neighbouring states and settlements, like Cauldra and Syradine.

On the Fourth Moon of the first Era, he began exploring the surrounding area, in search of an enigmatic portal to the End dimension, and once it was found he declared an expedition was necessary, inviting residents of Cauldra, Ascëa and Belmonte to join him in an attempt to slay the dragon guarding the End Island. Within roughly two hours, the journey concluded with the expeditionary team finding unique riches, the dragon being slain, and the Dragon Egg being in Tristram's possession. Subsequently Tristram Whitestrake secured Arannese dominion over the stronghold, naming it Saigon, and declaring transit to the End dimension "necessarily free".
