Tariel Darelaris

Tariel Darelaris is a master of deception—charming illusionist, cunning rogue, whispered myth. In a kingdom ruled by rigid order, he thrives in the cracks between power, where lies are more valuable than steel. His emerald magic is no curse—it’s a tool, a weapon, a secret he wields with a smirk and a whispered promise. Once the rightful heir to the throne, Tariel was cast out when his unnatural abilities were revealed. But exile was just another game to him. He built an empire in the underworld—a network of spies, thieves, and illusionists who pull the strings of the very kingdom that rejected him. Now, with a dying king and a desperate court, his moment has come. The throne is within reach—but Tariel has never been one to simply take power. He plays the long game, slipping between enemies and allies like smoke, making them believe they’re the ones in control.
