Once one of the foremost experts on spell theory on the isle of Nuvar, Ronan was recently banished from all the isles of Arkaz. He has not been seen on the isles since that time.
Ronan appears to be a man in his mid-twenties, with black robes that are trimmed with red runes. His clothes are kept in pristine condition and he keeps exceptionally clean. Ronan is rarely seen without at least one book at his belt, and is usually also carrying two thin, long rapiers. When his left hand is ungloved, it bears draconic scales.
History
The individual known as Ronan arrived at the seas of Nuvar by shipwreck, without memory and without his name. A passing boat rescued him from the water and brought him to the south docks. He was nicknamed 'Grey' by an elven woman named Alysia, for the color of his clothes.
The one memory Grey did seem to have is that he had once been a wizard, with access to many spells. With the loss of his memories he also lost his spells. In order to gain back his memories, he re-sought the magic he had lost, studying at the Tower of Wisdom and collecting scrolls from willing patrons and less willing goblins.
Grey joined the Nuvar Mage School as an apprentice once he had relearned the spark of wizardry. Around this time, he also recalled his correct name of Ronan. After some months of personal training, he began to teach classes to the other apprentices and students at the school. During this time the a group of bandits identified by a black rose tattoo began appearing throughout Nuvar and attacking travelers; Ronan aided the school with research into portals so that the bandits could be traced.
Ronan aided in the navigation to, and the mapping of, the safe path to Avarine along with Captain Jissel, Rune, the ship's crew, and several heroes. Over the course of several months, he underwent a trial with others in order to locate a focus stone, then helped to awaken the four elemental spirits that would restore the island to its former glory, and awaken the avariel who were native to the island. He still travels to Avarine from time to time, though his visits have ben far less frequent as of late.
During a time in which orcs were attempting to invate the goblin isle and Nuvar, Ronan helped defend Nuvar and fight off the orc camps, and was temporarily volunteered into the army by Commander Orcslayer until the orc threat was no more. Sometime during these attacks and the attacks by the Black Rose bandits, Raven became a bodyguard to Ronan. It is possible this came about because Ronan had been attacked by one of the bandits, or for other reasons.
After many months of teaching, Ronan was promoted to a full teacher at the school. He continued to take on research projects while teaching the students, aiding in the study and search for the Pendant of the Amulet of Pelagia that had been taken by a necromancer and used to summon armies of drowned sailors.
Ronan was one of the first mortals on Nuvar to learn of the connection to Yamman Arda, and was approached by a messenger named Lillith about the subject. The two of them came to the city of Nuvar to ask for aid in preventing the two realms from collapsing, and a group of heroes traveled to Yamman Arda and in so doing stabilized both realms. Some time later it was requested that he formally take the position of diplomat for Yamman Arda to aid relations between Nuvar and Yamman Arda; he accepted and for many years served as the Ambassador of Yamman Arda. His retirement is recent.
More recent research Ronan has done included book translations and participating in excursions to seek out a cure for the plague known as the Burning Death when it came to Nuvar, the similar aiding of Ocean's Edge to end the plague there, help in research to purity the well beneath Nuvar when it became corrupted, and researching runes in order to prevent and reverse dangers rituals being done to the mage shrine. During the war between Retribution and Nuvar, Ronan was arrested for the murder of Will of Dertmore, but the charges were dropped before a decision was made. When the elves of Keivick came to attack Nuvar, Ronan led a skeletal army of several thousand undead in the defense of the isle.
When Nithhogr came to Nuvar to attempt to destroy Nuvar's worldstone, Ronan aided in defense traveling back in time with others in order to attempt to prevent Nithhogr from obtaining a method of getting to the worldstone. The mission was a failure, but Nithhogr was defeated in the next battle within the worldstone's chamber.
Ronan aided Nuvar and the Isle of Iron in fighting the cult of Xanis when it attempted to take over Iron. He exposed Ream's plans to the Nuvar government, foiling her, and assisted in the killing of the warlord Zurak and the thousands of cultists he kept as his army. He has continued to assist the Isle of Iron and Nuvar in more recent demon attacks to both isles.
Over the course of many months in which Nuvar was plagued by Retribution's forces, the cult of Xanis, and other grave threats, Ronan became close to with a woman known as Sasee, a sorceress striving to master the art of the blade. He proposed to her, and after many months they were finally married. Sasee has not been seen for some time.
During the assault of the Rising Eclipse, Ronan, Miranda, and Raven rescued one of three druid staves in order to aid the druids in protecting the Isle of Nuvar.
Recently, Ronan was banished from the Nuvar School of Magic by the Lord Mage Andristie Meyer, and convicted of the murder of an orphan child of Nuvar. A public confession was written and presented to the public. Ronan became increasingly distant around the time of his banishment, and began appearing about Nuvar less and less.
