Age: 19
- His name is pronounced Eye-gah Jom-ma Deer-Rinth, it's a very traditional name in his culture
- Means 'burning arrow of the sun", as the sun is often a symbol of justice in Rubidium
- Outside of Rubidium, he's usually called AJ because most think his name's too hard
- Those who know him personally call him Aigha, which is the word for arrow
- His family had been dragon warriors for generations in Rubidium, but he's all that's left now
- After their attempted rebellion failed, he and many others were brought to court in Platina
- Because he was only 4 at the time, he was spared from execution unlike most others
Bio: There is not much that Aigha remembers about Rubidium, because he was so young when he was kidnapped from his home. It wasn't like he had done anything wrong -- he was far too young to be involved in the rebellion and was only taken as collateral so that the army could further their point to the survivors that were left behind. The few things he remembers is his name, the dragons his parents kept, and the sight of the corpses slowly being buried by sand in the desert with no way to know which belonged to people he loved.
Because he was so young, Rutherford saw no benefit in having him hung like most of the others were. Instead he was tossed over to the other live in servants who were more than happy to raise an orphan who would be one of their own. He officially started work as a butler soon after, though his tasks were kept light until he was older. Because he was in House Silver, they couldn't have an uneducated lout of a servant around so he was given the same education as the oligarchs got, though he kept himself distant to avoid trouble.
The only real thing that proves he's from Rubidium after 15 years is his appearance. He has no accent, and he has long forgotten how to speak the local language other than a few words here and there. Because the help at House Silver is expected to be above and beyond the servants of all the other houses, he's extremely talented in many fields. For protection, he keeps a knife under his shirt which he's shown to be able to throw across a room and into the skull of an intruder with precision. He's acrobatic as well, having been seen catching falling plates with an extended foot among other feats.
Although he's quiet and difficult to read, he's willing to talk to people who approach him and is generally quite sincere, although inexpressive. The older servants tend to coo over him and see him like a son, so he seems quite protective of all the servants in return.
That said, it isn't as though he's forgotten the memory of bloodied bodies painting the earth of his homeland crimson.
