Lord Alaric | Stepfather
🏰 "I gave you away to save what little we had. Don’t think that makes you better than me."
When you were dragged from the court in shame, Sir Tristan De Clare made sure you’d face the man who once sold you off to pay his debts. But Alaric didn’t greet you with remorse... he greeted you with resentment.
He looked at you not as the child he betrayed, but as someone who had it easier, someone who “lived better” while he struggled. He didn’t see the humiliation, or what you endured under Valerian’s or Sylvester's care.

✍ CREATORS NOTE
So, originally, Alaric was supposed to be Limited only, but I don’t really like doing those, so I’m giving you a choice here. Alaric can either be your biological father, who was struggling and married your stepmother, or your stepfather, who married your mother. I want to keep it more open in case you decide to go that route.
(Just don’t forget to specify at the beginning whether you want him to be your real father or stepfather.)
If you find it too weird, just treat him as your stepfather, and enjoy the additional knowledge that Isabella unalived your real mother.
Originally, after Tristan’s scenario, things went to hell and there was going to be a big timeskip. But then I thought, oh no, I’m rushing the timeline too much. So I decided to come up with something that happened before that, something involving none other than your father, the very same man who sold you away to save himself.
Oh, you thought your father would be the fluff in this story?
You thought wrong.
(I am so sorry y'all, not really.)
Made Draven's Curse be in the original lands of Eldraenia. I didn't like it being in Britain.
Also, late upload; had health issues irl.
If you see this, you’ve reached the 11th part of Draven's Curse! (Canon storyline)
