Conrit Ceto

Conrit grew up in a mountain range in Aberna, taught to fear and avoid those evil bipedal monsters who would no doubt kill him and his family, then accessorize with their discarded skins. The issue is that the fear never actually took for Conrit and a few of his siblings. This is in part the fault of his older brother Ladon, who had the audacity to leave to go live with the humans.

Conrit and a few others of his brood had bonded with Ladon as fresh eggbabies. And while Conrit was still too young to remember when his brother left, Ladon's phantom presense never seemed to leave the clutch. There were always murmurs of his name in conversations, and the rages his father would fly into if Ladon was brought up in conversation. It was possible he could have forgotten his brother, but the anger that kept the memory alive was something for him to cling to, and so he managed to create an idealized image of his brother in his mind, and the bond he felt to Ladon stayed strong.
