Viranus Donton

Viranus Donton is the only remaining son of Vilena Donton, current headmaster of the Fighter's Guild. He lives with his mother in Chorrol, and is watched over mostly by Modyrn Oryen, usually (by his own account in a journal picked up at one point in the game) polishing weapons or training with the guilds newest members in any effort to keep himself skilled. It is suggested that he is a capable warrior, and uses a sword. He will accompany the PC on the guild quest "The Master's Son".

Story
Viranus' brother, Vitellus was killed after a botched mission led by Oryen. Since that time, his mother took a defensive stance in Viranus' upbringing in the guild, afraid of losing her remaining son, and thus he was not assigned contracts. After several weeks of this, Viranus began wondering if it his mother's fear of losing him were stemmed from any sign of incompetence. Sensing this, Oryen took every opportunity he could to assign Viranus' obscure contracts, to boost the warrior's self-confidence. At one point, he sends Viranus along with the Hero of Kvatch.

Viranus' days were not meant to last, sadly. Oryen sent the boy on yet another contract with a group of others, to clear the Forsaken Mine just south of Leyawiin. After not hearing word of the group since, the player character is sent to investigate, where it is learned that all the members of the group, including Viranus, were killed- though at first glance it seemed that Trolls killed them, a bloodstained journal revealed the presence of Blackwood Company mercenaries during the fight, not to mention bodies of the said company. The news of the loss of Vilena Donton's remaining son invokes her to expel Oryen from the Fighter's Guild, as well as demoting the PC 2 ranks.

Trivia

 * A character named Eduard is mentioned several times in the bloodstained journal on Viranus body. It is Eduard, apparently, who has kept Viranus company while he is in virtual isolation, and it is suggested that the two shared a romantic relationship. Eduard's body can be found in the Forsaken Mine some ways away from Viranus- he had died before Viranus.


 * "The Master's Son" quest is briefly referenced, and the PC mentioned as a "new boot" whom Viranus believes he was supposed to watch over, rather than the opposite.
