Ebraucus

Ebraucus is a Mastigos of the Silver Ladder. Previously called Segway, he is the youngest member of Alis Aquilae, and was for a time preparing to follow Iseult into the Legacy of the Pure Sovereigns.

History
Ebraucus' early life was overshadowed by the knowledge of the congenital heart problem that has troubled all the males in his family line going back several generations. He attended his grandfather's funeral at the age of twelve; his grandfather had been fifty.

This was the impulse and impetus which lead him to the point of enrolling in Lancaster University to study Politics, intending to enter the Civil Service and push healthcare reforms and research funding to extend, if not his own life, those of any children he might have.

On Awakening during the last summer before University and getting to grips with the concepts of magely life, he realised that there were other options; when, in Lancaster, Iseult told him what the Legacy of the Pure Sovereigns could do for a lifespan, he jumped at the chance, enlisting in the Ladder in order to follow her.

During the unfortunate sequence of events around the Argent Agenda, Ebraucus came to realise just how dangerous this could be and how little regard for others Iseult had. Rowntree appealed to him to abandon her, offering the Uncrowned Kings as an alternative, but on hearing of Ebraucus' concern over his lifespan, realised he couldn't directly help.

What he did, eventually, was to put him in touch with Birch, who, informed and advised by Sargasso, was contemplating the creation of a new Legacy that might help. The two of them have teamed up, with Birch pioneering Brigid's Well and Ebraucus gathering information and advising.

Ebraucus was elected to serve as the second Herald of the Consilium of the Stone Circle.
