![[AdramFiresong.png]] # Adram Firesong _Tiefling Scholar | [[Candlekeep]]_ ## Summary The youngest [[Firesong]] child. Has spent twenty years studying under [[Sylvira Savikas]] at [[Candlekeep]], searching for a way to free his mother [[Cecily Firesong]]'s soul from the [[Nine Hells]]—payment for his father [[Owynn Firesong|Owynn]]'s pact with [[Asmodeus]]. %% ## At a Glance Sharp-featured tiefling with dark hair and piercing eyes. Two decades of study have given him a scholarly bearing, though he still appears younger than his years. Speaks with measured authority until temporal paradoxes come up—then the passion takes over. Inherited [[Owynn Firesong|Owynn]]'s temporal sight, but it works in reverse: he sees backward through time instead of forward. Watches his father's corruption unfold in reverse chronology—[[Belaam]] first, then the idealistic young scholar. A unique form of torment. [[Sylvira Savikas|Sylvira]] recognizes the dangerous parallel to his father's story. [[Owynn Firesong|Owynn]] became obsessed with controlling the future; Adram risks obsession with changing the past. Twenty years of researching infernal contracts and temporal magic—the same dangerous knowledge that once corrupted his father. ## Personality Brilliant, temperamental, unusual. Frustrated by linear thinking. Prone to mood swings from constantly experiencing his father's choices in reverse. The quest to save his mother began with love—but the path looks increasingly like his father's. ## Quote _"My father saw futures and chose the darkest path. I see the past and watch every terrible choice unfold backwards. The irony is exquisite—and torturous."_ ## Background **The Quest:** Arrived at [[Candlekeep]] ten years after [[Kali Firesong|Kali]] helped save the multiverse. While the world celebrated his sister's heroism, Adram was haunted by the cost of their father's choices—their mother's soul still trapped in the [[Nine Hells]]. **The Gift:** His temporal sight makes him exceptional at tracing the origins of historical events and infernal contracts. He's become one of [[Candlekeep]]'s foremost experts on temporal magic and infernal law, though he remains technically a "student"—whether by choice, caution, or because [[Sylvira Savikas|Sylvira]] fears what greater independence might bring. **The Danger:** Unlike [[Owynn Firesong|Owynn]], who pursued forbidden knowledge out of obsession, Adram's quest began with duty. But two decades have shown him how similar his path has become. ## Stats **Sage** (enhanced) with temporal sight and expertise in infernal contracts. %%
