Consul of Ohma, Grandmaster of its Army, and the Master of his House.  Aravind is an expert tactician, avid hunter, and determined commander.  He rules his people with an iron grip, enforcing the residential and denizen laws sternly, but fairly.  The life-long fighter takes great pride in the fact that he has never asked a member of his house to do anything that he himself would not, and so he leads his people from the front lines of their many conflicts.  As a younger man, he used his one kill to defend his family's honor in a duel.  Nyari has been his loyal wife for many years, and Hristo is his son and heir.
