	\|Rhys would not stand out in a crowd, were it not for his missing right arm and the bright blazing blue of his eyes, a trait the Silverhalls are known for. He stands to an average height, but is solidly built, a trained fighter from his youth who'd pursued a military officer's career. He dresses his station, despite his abnegation from his part in his family's line, but he does not dress with any sense of snobbery, just a sense of duty. His hair was jet-black as a youth, but has started to gray at the temples and through his close-shaven beard. He generally wears a cloak over his right shoulder, hiding the missing limb, and particularly what he's done to try and replace it.		\|Rhys would not stand out in a crowd, were it not for his missing right arm and the bright blazing blue of his eyes, a trait the Silverhalls are known for.

	\|~~    ~~Rhys was born the second son of Lukas and Rhoslyn Silverhall, shortly following his twin brother Rholand out of the womb. Growing up with a real sense of being the "backup" gave Rhys a sense of insecurity, of being held back, and he bristled under that, wanting more than anything to be allowed to be who he was meant to be, not just his brother's alternate. There was constant bickering between the two, but Rhys never envied his brother's position as heir apparent; the role came with far more strings than even those laid upon Rhys himself. Rhys was constantly getting into trouble, and this was not something that improved as he aged. He threw himself into combat training from a young age, learning the sword but never taking it particularly seriously. He read voraciously, seeking escapes from what he viewed as his prison, both through fiction and through scholarly works.		\|Rhys was born the second son of Lukas and Rhoslyn Silverhall, shortly following his twin brother Rholand out of the womb.

	:     Shortly after reaching adulthood, Rhys fell into a torrid affair with Elliandra Baramont, the eldest daughter of the Silverhall's main rivals, families with generations of bad blood on both sides. Shortly after the marriage, Elliandra betrayed Rhys to her family, stealing information from the Silverhalls for their use, and this led to an incredibly public and venomous divorce and has only made things much worse between the families. All that said, there's never been anyone else, for Rhys. He hates Elliandra for what she did, but he can't move on.
	:    Rhys threw himself into a military career to escape the shame of his failures in love, and proceeded to lose his first command after a few tentative wins, pushing forward too boldly and getting cut off, and losing his own right arm during the melee aftermath as he tried to provide cover for his soldiers' retreat.

	:    In the aftermath of his failed military career, Rhys isolated himself, furiously searching through tomes for something he could use to restore his arm.

	:     Shortly after reaching adulthood, Rhys fell into a torrid affair with Elliandra Baramont, the eldest daughter of the Silverhall's main rivals, families with generations of bad blood on both sides. Shortly after the marriage, Elliandra betrayed Rhys to her family, stealing information from the Silverhalls for their use, and this led to an incredibly public and venemous divorce and has only made things much worse between the families. All that said, there's never been anyone else, for Rhys. He hates Elliandra for what she did, but he can't move on.		:     Shortly after reaching adulthood, Rhys fell into a torrid affair with Elliandra Baramont, the eldest daughter of the Silverhall's main rivals, families with generations of bad blood on both sides.

	:    Rhys threw himself into a military career to escape the shame of his failures in love, and proceeded to lose his first command after a few tentative wins, pushing forward too boldly and getting cut off, and losing his own right arm during the melee aftermath as he tried to provide cover for his soldiers' retreat. This ended his military career, though his performance as an officer would likely have done so on its own.		:    Rhys threw himself into a military career to escape the shame of his failures in love, and proceeded to lose his first command after a few tentative wins, pushing forward too boldly and getting cut off, and losing his own right arm during the melee aftermath as he tried to provide cover for his soldiers' retreat. This ended his military career, though his performance as an officer would likely have done so on its own.
			:    In the aftermath of his failed military career, Rhys isolated himself, furiously searching through tomes for something he could use to restore his arm. He was no use to his family in fathering heirs, due to his abnegation, and he had no finances with which to pursue business, though his family ensured his lifestyle needs were met. In that searching, Rhys found several highly-experimental books on magic, and took their hypotheses in a new direction, finding a way to actually build a housing for what was essentially the ghost or incarnated memory of his old arm. This is a secret he's kept to himself, but it has led him to some unique understandings regarding arcane theory that he has continued to develop, finding a challenge that excites him for the first time in his life.

	:    Rhys has two younger sisters, both married well and happy in their lives. His father passed away from suicide shortly after Rhys and Rholand reached their majority, and Rholand has led the family well ever since. The two brothers still don't get along particularly well, but there's grudging respect between the two of them, even if they won't choose to socialize without good reason. Their mother vanished just a few years ago, taken from the family home in what they assume was some kind of kidnapping scheme, but no trace has ever been found and no ransom ever demanded. Just the latest tragedy in a family that seems plagued by them.		:    Rhys has two younger sisters, both married well and happy in their lives.

|Rhys has dug himself into a hole of scandal and shame. His romantic liasons brought shame on himself and his house, and his military career resulted in serious injury and the loss of his command. As a result, he's abnegated his role in the family line, and is seeking his fortune.
|Rhys would not stand out in a crowd, were it not for his missing right arm and the bright blazing blue of his eyes, a trait the Silverhalls are known for. However, he always seems to attract attention, just be being present, a magnetic sense pulling others along with his intensity alone. He stands to an average height, but is solidly built, a trained fighter from his youth who'd pursued a military officer's career. He dresses his station, despite abnegating his part in his family's line, but not with any sense of snobbery, just a sense of duty. His hair was jet-black as a youth, but has started to gray at the temples and through his close-shaven beard. He generally wears a cloak over his right shoulder, hiding the missing limb, and particularly what he's done to try and replace it.
