Carn

From Inheriwiki, the ever-growing Inheritance database

Carn was a human spellcaster who was placed in Roran's company of Varden soldiers. He was very adept at weaving and sneaking his way around enemy spellcaster's barriers that protected their minds. Over the course of the several assignments they engaged in together, Carn and Roran became good friends and developed a mutual respect. As of the end of Brisingr, Carn was still assigned to this company, now under Roran's command.

[edit] Appearance, personality and traits

Carn was a human male of early middle age, tall, lean of body and face, not particularly athletic, giving him the appearance of decrepit or malnutrition.

He tended to being quiet and introvert. This may have been an acquired trait, though, stemming from his being a magician and thus different, and having had taken part in extended hostilities. While he may have acted and appeared shabby and worn, Carn was in fact quite friendly and honest, willing to stand up to superiors and physically stronger individuals in defense of a friend, as evidenced by his having done so for Roran on several occasions. Throughout his missions with the Varden, he became good friends with Roran, on one occasion even leaving his company to be with Roran's during a battle in Surda. He also fought (using magic) with admirable tenacity even against a superior force.

Carn wasn't a particularly powerful spellcaster - he ranked among the Du Vrangr Gata average and likely inferior in brute power to Imperial army magicians. However, he was not in the habit of giving up in a contest and was quite skilled at penetrating mental defenses, even of stronger foes (he defeated a standard imperial magician in a magicians' duel during one of his company's missions). As far as actual abilities are concerned, he was capable of deflecting large amounts of arrows from a mid-sized area for an extended period of time, though with substantial strain. His knowledge of the Ancient Language also seemed to conform to the Du Vrangr Gata average (that said, nothing fancy). He tended to be nervous casting spells, especially the relatively more complicated ones.
