riordan (rear-den) + odrhan (o-rawn)
Ri and Odrhan were connected in more ways than one. They met in the dream and awoke with the same Wyld Hunt: to kill Mordremoth. The pair had chemistry immediately, quickly moving from friends to lovers. It was a common joke among their friends that you’d never see one without the other by their side. But when the time came to fight against Mordremoth, Ri turned to the Nightmare Court, full of fear that they would not be strong enough to withstand the dragon’s call. Odrhan begged them not to, but he could not convince them to stay true to the Dream.
Odrhan left with a heavy heart and joined Iona in the jungle to fight alongside his friends in the Vigil. When Mordremoth called, Odrhan fought back by remembering Ri. He stayed strong for them, always.
After Mordremoth’s defeat, he returned to Caldeon and sought out Ri, eager to tell them their Wyld Hunt was complete and they didn’t need to be afraid. But who he found was not the same person he left. Ri had turned cold, they wouldn’t let Odrhan touch them. They threatened him, shouted at him to leave and never look for them again.
But Odrhan saw his old friend and lover in those eyes, he saw the way their hands twitched with excitement when they saw him- just like they always did before. He knew he couldn’t give up that easily. Their Wyld Hunts may have ended with Mordremoth’s death, but he knew his fight didn’t end there.

Ri’s IGN is Steady As She Rose (after the song steady as she goes bc u know... rose.. sylvari.. also raising minions from the dead sjkhjsg) and they’re going to be a reaper once leveled. Odrhan’s is Turning Back Thyme (which like... fitting for their stories :))))) ) and he will be a chrono ofc.
