Description

Osoron is the main character for Djinnborn. He’s a younger prince, never intended to become caliph, but a twist of fate shoves him in the throne. As a result, he becomes forced to contend with matters he was never really trained or prepared for. He’s used to being a traveler, leader of expeditions, explorer, and cartographer, not ruler of an entire country. The politics, minutiae, environment, and troubles of being caliph don’t sit well with him.

While he’s got the rank of a prince, Osoron is really more of a skyship captain than a true prince. When it became evident he was a sorcerer, his father’s council tried to distance him from the throne. Therefore, they gave him the title of Royal Cartographer, handed him a skypship, and sent him away from Aremshah. So Osoron has worldly, practical experience and has met people of every Djinnborn nation. On the other hand, he has very little experience leading anything other than his crew and expeditions. It’s a big step from navigating dangerous skies on a skyship to navigating the dangerous winds of the Aremshah Court.

In a sense, Osoron is the kind of Caliph that might make a better general than king. It’s not an exact analogy but it gets the point across.

Osy’s side of the story will focus on his life as Caliph, his time traversing the web of court politics, as well as his time traveling. His story won’t be entirely about his life in court. I plan to find excuses for him to get out on his skyship. Besides, his crew needs attention. They’ll really enjoy suddenly being the crew of the Caliph’s flagship, even if Osy’s flagship isn’t that big…
