Tyril Starfury

Tyril, a character from the Blades of Light and Shadow series, is an elf noble and one of your love interests. He is first seen Chapter 3, but his name is not revealed until Chapter 4.

Appearance
Tyril has long black hair, blue eyes and light blue skin. He wears a silver armor with weapons in his back.

Personality
Tyril admits he is not the best at showing his emotions, and finds it difficult to trust people. He is self-deprecating, as he compares himself to other elves and does not believe he is as witty. He thinks of himself as a broken wanderer.

Background
As the heir to the House of Starfury, Tyril drilled with fencing instructors, military strategists, and had tutors for everything from etiquette and poetry to mathematics. He had no real friends, as any sign of politeness or acknowledgement to another elf might incur political ramifications. Like others of his stature, he attended balls and council meetings.

Your Character
He bumps into your character at the market. Nia says he's radiating powerful magical energy. At the end of the chapter, he saves you by blasting the mayor's men with magical energy and decapitating the mayor. He tells you to run. In the following chapter, he joins your group after learning that you share a common goal, that is stopping the Shadow Court. In a Chapter 9 diamond scene, Tyril says that he think he is not a good enough companion to your character. He then says that being around your character inspires him to be better. After that, you have the chance to kiss him.

Kaya
In Chapter 9, he opens up about his background and tells your party about Kaya. Although she came from the much poorer House Duskraven, they became friends when her family traveled in the noble circles. Tyril describes her as humble, funny, and compassionate. According to him, she kept his ego in check and made him a better person. She was also a historian and fascinated with the Shadow Court, visiting all the major archives to gather more knowledge. When she returned a year prior to the current events, her whole behavior and personality had changed. She challenged him to a duel and defeated him despite him being "the most skillful duelist in all of Undermount". He states that this was the most humiliating moment of his life which made him flee the city. Her shift in behavior causes him to believe that she may have succumbed to the Shadow Court's influence much like the Mayor of Parnassus.
