Tidon al Din

Tidon al Din is the son of the Crimson Archer and Juliette Tharn. He is an accomplished soldier and military commander and is the head of Taneth's elite infantry. He is an antagonist in Twelve Stars of Taneth.

Background
The fourth child and second son of Sahir al Din and Juliette Tharn, Tidon was stern, serious boy. He found his older brother, Hakim, foppish and weak-willed, and never respected him. The perfect soldier to the letter, after his father's retreat from the world, Tidon went rogue. He and his soldiers conquered Gilane, setting Hammerfell on a path for widespread warfare.

Aleera is his favorite sibling.

Personality
Calm, cool, and level-headed, Tidon is the man who should've been king. Instead placed in charge of the kingdom's highly trained troops, he felt slighted, but was to loyal to his father and the crown to act on his feelings. Unflinchingly severe, Tidon lacks humor and understands things by their literal meaning. He can be ruthless and cunning; when he sets his mind to a goal, he must complete it.
