As the youngest of the Selikis, growing up he was something of a Mama's Boy, always running to his mother and grandmother whenever he was afraid. But held rapt by his mother's stories of adventure and bravery, and wanting to please his father, he struggled to face his fears, and by the time he was twelve years old, had taken his first cliff dive, a frequently enjoyed sport of the region. The act in itself was a release; he realized to confront a fear was to conquer it, and so he took to learning the martial disciplines with gusto, and started to find the anticipation of danger to be somewhat thrilling. When his mother died, he was devastated, and it pushed him further into the notion of challenging his fear, of which his true remaining one is ultimately death. Now, he serves competently as one of his father's knights, but still takes the time to challenge himself with new experiences and enjoying that thrill that certain types of danger can bring.

A tall young man with an easy-going air, he clearly enjoys outdoor living with skin darkened and brown hair lightened by the sun. Standing tall, he has a swimmer's athletic body, all whipcord and sleek but strong lines. His youthful handsomeness is offset by his high cheekbones and bright, blue-green eyes. Smiles come easily to him, but there's also an undercurrent of energy that suggests he is loathe to keep still very long.

Kaldur is Orrin's second child, and doesn't envy his sister her position as heir. Like so many from the region he is extremely easy-going until a situation calls for focus, but if he has a preference, he would rather be outdoors rather than in some stuffy court. An extrovert who is good with people, Kaldur's primary flaw is that he is utterly, unrepentantly addicted to adrenaline. Cliff-jumping? Swimming into deep water? Climbing rocks to dizzying heights, riding horses at breakneck speed? Check, check, check. Peri may be interested in exploring the world, but Kaldur is interested in exploring his physical limits. It doesn't mean he's selfish, but it does mean he'll take risks that might not be wise if he actually was his father's heir. Oh, and don't mess with his grandma. He realy won't like it.
