Biography
Verin is an acclaimed soldier and a talented leader. He is the Taskhand in charge of the Aurora Watch in Bazzoxan.

Essek Thelyss
Essek is Verin’s older brother. Verin was the only bond Essek had before the Shadowhand met the Mighty Nein, since he alone understood and got along with Essek in a family that Essek was otherwise at odds with. Essek named Verin as one of the potential allies he would trust to assist with fighting Lucien.
