de la Croix

High Concept: “Walker between the worlds who lost his way”

Theme: “Can I save the city (or destroy it)?”

Name: “de la Croix”

Where did you come from: “Just the next in the Ceyhanes Line”

The Ceyhanes family. Outwardly, local landowners, upper class snobs. An of money family looked on as lofty, arrogant and generally out of touch from the public. Inwardly, the self-apointed saviors of the city from the horror that lurks just beyond the world. The family, or more aptly described ‘cult’, offer up their offspring to become the guardian of the city. They offer up their offspring to become the next to guard the boarders between the worlds. Those on the outside call it ‘the stationmaster’. Those on the inside know they are truely the ‘de la Croix’ – always to sit on the fence, always to be impartial, to maintain the balance, never to become involved.

What shaped you: “Friend of the Summer Fey”

There comes a time when you have to make a choice. For the most recent ‘de la Croix’ it came when he found the Summer Fey was waining, the tree dying. It was then he knew that sitting on the fence wasn’t going to work, so he jumped down, taking his title with him for his own and ran to their aid. The tree still stands, dying, but not yet dead, as it would have been a long time ago were it not for him. As such, a void has been left that is only partially filled. There might be a new stationmaster, but he is certainly no ‘de la Croix’.

Novel: The Waiting Room (“Keeper of the Waiting Room”)

In the midst of vanishing citizens, rouge magicians and a shadowy cult, can the wayward station master solve the mystery of the Waiting Room before it too claims him? Partnered with the wizard Linden Thorne, who can open the one door the world walker can not, can the two also rescue an unlikely ally, Blunt, trapped in the Room awaiting whatever lies beyond… [Edit as needed!]

Guest Appearance 1: Absence of Regrets (“Ties that Bind”)

Crossing paths with Bethany Smith, de la Croix finds himself with an ally in his quest to find his missing niece before she befalls the same terrible fate that students across the city are suffering all too often. [Edit as needed!]

Guest Appearance 2: Fool’s Mate (“I rush in where Angels fear to tread!”)

Making sure the balance of power is not tipped, a loose cannon by the name of de la Croix can’t help but become involved. It’s his city, and he won’t let anyone from outside tip the scales of power, one way or the other. [Edit as needed!]
