Sylas Greymere
the Thornbriar Warlock
Sylas, of the forest, and Greymere, the pale boundary—named for the root-knot where wood meets water.
Power
Root-binding — you set thorns into living earth and speak them awake, so they weave a cage or a crown as you will.
- Familiar
- a grey-muzzled badger named Burr
- Coven
- Thornmere
The village says you crawled from a thornbush split by lightning, still tangled in bramble. You never corrected them. But you remember a grey mere under a moonless sky, and the cold weight of a stone crown placed on your brow by hands of root and peat.
Where the name comes from
Sylas — “of the forest”.
Greymere — Grey + mere (lake).
