Parni deSangre

Prince Parni deSangre was the son of Castomira Brangwin and Mycale deSangre. Castomira intended to use make use of his royal ancestry to gain control over the Staff of Nicator. After his mother's death, he was adopted and raised by his aunt, Catarin deSangre, who gave him the proper upbringing of a possible heir to the throne. She hid the evil intentions of his birth mother from him as best she could, and he is said to have grown up moody and rebellious but not at all cruel or hateful.

Parni later disappeared mysteriously during a hunting trip, his companions found gruesomely dismembered in the woods. It is unknown what exactly happened that night, but historians say that he made a dramatic reappearance some years later.
