Lianthorn

Lianthorn is a guard from Malino're and an acquaintance of the Champions Valoris.

Appearance
Lianthorn is a male wood elf. He has smooth hands and wears guard armor.

Personality
Lianthorn is very outgoing and has been described as boisterous. He quickly became friendly with the party, sharing what he knew about the hag situation, and seemed excited to talk to them. He teases his friend Wyrran and can be quite pushy with him, although it is clear that he cares for his friend and wants him to pursue happiness.

Background
Lianthorn grew up in Malino're. He has been friends with Wyrran for a long time, and they eventually enrolled in an academy together, becoming guards assigned to the same post.

Malino're Arc
The Champions Valoris first met Lianthorn while he was on duty at the Bloomshower Fest. Along with Wyrran, Lianthorn was aware of the hags' infiltration of the festival, but felt unable to act against them, as the head ranger's hands were tied. When Reides shook Lianthorn's hand to ensure that he wasn't a disguised hag, he returned the handshake heartily and passed inspection. When the ruse was revealed, Lianthorn admitted he wasn't keen on the deception but understood it given the circumstances. As the party left the guardpost, Lianthorn asked if Reides would be willing to take Wyrran around the festival for a few hours, as he had been cooped up in the guardpost all day. Reides agreed and waved goodbye to Wyrran, who blushed and stared at the ground.

Upon the party's return to the city after they took care of the hags, Lianthorn greeted them. He was grateful that the party was able to save anyone. Lianthorn also expressed relief that they were relatively unharmed and assured Reides that he didn't have to take Wyrran out if he wasn't up for it. However, Reides agreed to stick to their plans. That night, Lianthorn dragged Wyrran to the inn to meet Reides for his date. He teased Wyrran by telling him not to stay out too late before returning to the guard post.

The next day, Lianthorn greeted the party when they returned to the guard post so that Reides could say goodbye to Wyrran. He saw them off when they left Malino're, alongside his friend.

Goals
Lianthorn has discussed his motivations in joining the guard less than Wyrran has, although he presumably wants to protect people. He also seems to want Wyrran to be happy, encouraging him to go out and have more fun.

Abilities
Lianthorn seems to be a trained archer and, accordingly, has visually obvious upper body strength. While the Woodseekers of Malino're are known as rangers, it is unknown if Lianthorn is officially considered a Woodseeker or if he has ranger skills in addition to his archery prowess.

Lianthorn and Wyrran
Lianthorn has been friends with Wyrran for a very long time. They also attended the academy together. Lianthorn and Wyrran seem to have opposite personalities, with Lianthorn being extremely shy and anxious in contrast with Lianthorn's easy outgoingness. As a result, Lianthorn embarrasses Wyrran quite a bit, such as when he set up Wyrran on a date with Reides and dragged him to it. However, Lianthorn does these things because he cares about his friend, and Wyrran has admitted that he knows this and is lucky to have Lianthorn in his life.
