Dryden Eigr

Dryden Eigr is the young Warden of Camlan’s High Elves, caught between protecting his people and accepting the destiny others demand for him. His parents and tutors raised him to value bloodline purity and the guidance of the Champion of Light. Bellona and Sleih want him crowned and reborn, while Ouroboros sees a potential Doomknight and later calls his transformation into an ideal Champion nearly complete.

His loyalty is not free of doubt. He initially cannot believe his people welcomed Ouroboros, and hurting Sigrid more severely than he intended makes him ask whether they can still turn back. He nevertheless stays to defend his parents and people. Neith offers a different kind of guidance by urging him to judge Duty and Destiny for himself.

His growing attachment to the Shadows gives him people to defend beyond his own family. He resists leaving Neith and urges Apophis to escape after her sacrifice. He offers his blade against Astero and tries to help Eos when Ouroboros saves her.
