History
Altelo Twilight is the second son born of the Twilight House's current adult generation. His deceased older brother Weisur Twilight often overshadowed him in many ways. Having a mild more feral manner, Altelo tended to stand quietly in the shadows while Weisur ran the family businesses and oversaw The Twilight Tower's presence in Lhavit. However, that did not mean Altelo didn't soak up what his family knowledge both in terms of his ability to lead but also in his knowledge of the Twilight's interests in Lhavit. Altelo has had one of the finest educations his family could provide him. And in his own quiet way Altelo's been picking up Weisur's pieces, soothing the ruffled feathers his brother always created, and been a quiet strength behind the scenes and out of the domineering spotlight of Weisur's presence. When his brother was executed, Altelo was there to step up along with his younger brother Nosumo Twilight who is quite gifted with numbers. Their sister, Kanami Twilight, takes after their mother and spends a great deal of her time focused on farming and business.
Altelo is married to Aleine Twilight. She did not come from a prominent Lhavitian family but was instead a stranger to the city of Lhavit when she met Altelo. Weisur disapproved of the match - as he did any marriage outside of one of the three Houses - and when Aleine was heavy with Altelo's first child she mysteriously vanished from Lhavit. Altelo searches for her but with each passing year the chances of finding her alive or his child grow slimmer and slimmer.
Personality
Altelo is soft spoken and is said to enjoy poetry and sword work in equal measures. His curiosity and intelligence has lead him to become an Master in morphing and thus lead the magical teachings in the Twilight Tower. Altelo doesn't believe in taking power or respect, he feels it should be earned and sets about every day to make sure he is worthy of his position as Head of the Twilight House. Altelo is said to be compassionate and in a way encouraging towards those who are willing to work to better themselves in Lhavitian society. He's also been known to pay the tuition of a promising young person in they show talent in a magical field the Twilight's specialize in. And while he rarely argues or raises his voice, Altelo is a prominent member on Lhavit's council.
Appearance
Altelo has a broody facial expression that seems to naturally fall on his rather youthful features. Considering himself having a weak chin and thin lips, Altelo is no one's ideal of handsome. However, he has his own charm with a slow smile and a soft gentle voice that guides both his family and his students on a new pathway, one that has done nothing but improved his family since the Day of Discord. Altelo has a strongly muscled body from his constant use of his cutlass and has made something of a name for himself with his sword. Watchful, protective, Altelo keeps the Twilight Family in line with a gentle guiding hand, very different from Weisur's old unrelenting fist.
