Lord Byron Wylde, Redeemed Knight

Here’s the vanilla P1 version of a character from my novel that I already stated as a Sentinel for the Spheres of Power system on this blog- a dark knight redeemed by the power of love. He also was quoted as “Sir Bryant” in Misfit Studios’ Book of Passion. The magic item Ring of Heartbeat comes from there as well, while some mythic qualities are taken from the Mythic Hero’s Handbook.
