Character and Background
In P.Y. ??, Sir Candeth Martine was taken from his homeland of Aluvia and found himself on Dereth. On Ispar, he left behind his young daughter Aritta and wife Melanay[1]. When he first arrived, he felt lost and alone. He joined The Exploration Society so he could help other new arrivals[1]. On one mission, observing a Mosswart tribe, he was betrayed by the Society, and given up to the Virindi. Aerbax altered Candeth into the human-virindi hybrid known as Martine. Martine was extraordinarily powerful, but the conflict between his own mind and the virindi-consciousness also drove him insane.
Martine plays a major role in the Elements of Revenge Story Arc.
