Name: Cain ‘Moonstone’ Brine

Celebrity Claim: Craig Horner
Looks: Cain is 6’0” with a toned muscular build. He has short dark brown hair, brown eyes, and a thin light brown beard that he keeps trimmed close it’s almost like a 5’oclock shadow. He normally wears a leather jerkin and blue tunic. Cain was striped of his Paladin armor after his capture and therefore does not wear it. He does, however still carry his Paladin staff with him. It is 5’7” tall and it does become kind of cumbersome to carry around. Cain does his fighting not only with magic but with his sword as well. It’s always strapped to his belt and ready for combat.
Personality: Cain has always been a guy to fight for what is right. Even though he had to go through means which meant killing those who did not deserve it, he had his mind set on a final goal that would help all of Tabluna. His heart is in the right place even if his actions were not. Cain is a kind person with no malicious intent; he isn’t like other Paladin who view all Magus as evil. He has never seen them as evil but knew his place and kept his mouth shut. He is kind of foolhardy sometimes, he likes the idea of adventure and is willing to give his life when it comes to Evelyn.
Cain is truly in love with Evelyn, he knows it but has yet to tell her about it. He is willing to do anything to get her back and because of this it makes Cain a danger to himself and others around him. Cain can have a temper at times and likes to do things his own way. He does not like to follow orders and has his sights set on finding Evelyn. She means everything to him and can’t stand the idea of anything bad happening to her. He knows that Evelyn is capable of taking care of herself, but he still feels the need to protect her.
Cain feels he can’t show people how he truly feels so he tries not to show his emotions to others. But he has such a kind heart it is hard for him to keep up a front like that. He is very determined and once Cain sets his mind to something there is no stopping him. Cain has a good head on his shoulders but at times he can act reckless and charge into things without thinking. He has a snarky kind of attitude and there is always something sarcastic and witty he has to say. Cain can be full of himself and there are many times where he is arrogant. But he can be very loyal and trustworthy unless there is something that Cain wants, then he put all of his effort into that one task not allowing for anything or anyone to get in his way.
Family:
Juno, Mother—alive
Kellion, Father –alive
Evelyn, childhood friend --missing
History: Cain was born to Juno and Kellion Brine in the small Island city of Drinui. He lived with his mother alone when he was a baby never knowing his father. His father was a Paladin and by the time Cain was born he was called to serve beside the High Paladin. In the city of Drinui Cain met a young girl named Evelyn, the two came upon each other in the forest when they were both seven. Evelyn was able to best him in almost anything and Cain hated it in the beginning and for a while the two were more like rivals then friends. When the two finally realized they liked each other as friends they started to actually hang out and get along. Although they still competed in many tasks.
When Cain was thirteen he learned that Evelyn was the daughter of a Magus and a Witch. Her parents were hunted down and killed by a group of Paladin’s that came to Drinui. Cain’s father Kellion was among them. He helped Evelyn escape terrified that she would be killed too; Cain knew that Evelyn was capable of magic but he never questioned what kind of magic she used. She hid in the forest that lay on the boarder of Drinui.
Cain would visit Evelyn in her hide out deep in the forest, the night before Cain was taken away from Drinui, Evelyn gave Cain a name she said his true magic and heart resided. Moonstone. He thought it was cheesy name and stated that he thought so, but inside he didn’t think so he was merely trying to keep up a front. Cain left that night promising to come back the next morning to visit again but he wouldn’t make it to her.
Cain’s father Kellion came the next morning to take him to the Tower of the Paladin where he would begin his training as a Paladin. It was only the second time Cain had ever met his father and he despised him for killing Evelyn’s parents. But Cain had no say in the matter and was forced to travel to the main island of Tabluna to the Tower of the Paladin. It nearly killed him that he was unable to go and say good-bye to Evelyn.
From there on out Cain was trained as a Paladin and taught to use the Spirit Magic. He learned quickly after some resistance of course. Cain hated the idea of being part of the faction that took the lives of Evelyn’s parents. He realized it was useless to resist, besides Cain thought that by becoming a Paladin he could go back to Drinui and help Evelyn. After realizing he could use the power to help Evelyn he wanted to learn everything he could.
By the time Cain turned 18 he had become very skilled and was next in line to serve with High Paladin. He traveled with a group of Paladin’s to the Isle of Una where groups of Magus’ were caught practicing and teaching the Earth Magics. Cain didn’t want to go and killed them, but it was his first missing now that he was no longer a student. With no choice he went and during the small battle that ensued there, Cain noticed a girl who looked vaguely familiar. When he got closer, and after she tried to take off his head, Cain recognized her to be Evelyn. Evelyn was the leader of the faction of Magus and decided to call a retreat. Later that night Evelyn came to Cain at the camp of the Paladin. They went off to the forest to speak.
Cain caught up with Evelyn very much relieved to see that she was alive. Evelyn, however, was not exactly happy to see Cain. She was disappointed that Cain had become a Paladin. After a small argument and convincing on Cain’s behalf that he did not want to be here doing this, the two spoke on more peaceful grounds. Evelyn tried to convince Cain to join them, or run away with her but he turned her down. He was bound to the High Paladin and could not leave unless he was willing to forfeit his life. Cain wanted to try to become the next High Paladin in order to restore Tabluna to the way it should have been. Magus and Paladin living side by side. They parted ways.
Over the next couple years Cain worked faithfully side by side with the other Paladin riding Tabluna of the Magus threat whenever he was ordered to. He had to try to accomplish his goal of one day becoming High Paladin. About a few months ago it was reported that a women who was practiced in the arts of Earth Magic and other magic was rebelling against a small village that housed Paladins just outside of Vi. Cain knew it was Evelyn, and he knew that when they met again he would have to kill her. But as Cain marched on the battlefield he saw no sign of Evelyn, until he saw her at the mercy of two highly power Paladin. Unable to come to terms with Evelyn’s possible death, Cain charged the two Paladin and soon killed them. His dreams of making Tabluna a better place were ruined.
Both Cain and Evelyn were taken back as prisoners to the High Paladin at Castle Ryin. They were both locked away, and while Cain’s fate was being decided Evelyn’s was already written and waiting to be carried out. She was to be put to death and hung from the Castle Ryin as an example to all of those who dared to practice the Earth Magic. Evelyn, using her magic broke from her prison and even freed Cain. She was more powerful then Cain thought, having enough to break the magic of the High Paladin that surrounded the dungeon cells.
The two escaped in the dead of night into the forest not sure where they were heading. It wasn’t too long until their escape was noticed and they were pursued. While being chased Evelyn and Cain were separated, Cain heard Evelyn cry out, a splash of water and then no sound at all from direction she was running. All Cain heard was the shouts of the Paladin who still chased him. Cain continued on before he was caught he fell into a pond he could not see in the black of night. When he resurfaced Cain found himself not wet but completely dry and in surroundings he did not recognize.
Now Cain is in Narnia and finds himself in search of Evelyn. He does not know for a fact if she is in fact here, but he can hope and holds to that hope. When Cain and Evelyn escaped that night he was able to grab his sword and even staff, which was lucky and owed all to Evelyn and her powerful magical skills. But it seems that his magic does not work at full force here in this land. Cain suspects that it is because the Powers Above do not reside here.
