Kilorn Warren

"'Just because I can't read doesn't mean I'm stupid.'"

Background
Kilorn's father was killed in the Lakeland war, and his mother ran off leaving him alone to die. Kilorn usually picked fights with Mare Barrow, and she would usually beat him up, but she would always take care of him and feed him. Kilorn's master died, dooming Kilorn to conscription which is what drove Mare to score a deal with Diana Farley to get them out.

After Mare got her newblood ability, Kilorn joined up with the Scarlet Guard despite Mare's protests. He helped out with the Sun Hall shooting, but after was captured and held captive with Farley, Tristan, and Walsh. When Ptolemus Samos almost kills Kilorn, Mare knocks him out.

Throughout the series Mare tries to protect Kilorn, even though he keeps throwing himself into danger.

Personality and Looks
Kilorn is loyal to the Barrow family since his own died, and is loyal to the Scarlet Guard as well. Everyone thinks he is stupid since he can't read, but he is actually smart and quick-thinking. Him and Tiberias Calore (Cal) VII usually fight a lot, but near the end of the series they come together and can trust each other with their lives. Kilorn has bright green eyes and a lithe body from being a fisher. He is fast and can swim well.

Mare
Mare and Kilorn usually bicker constantly, but you can tell that Mare cares for him since she risked her life for him trying to get him out of conscription. She is very protective of Kilorn, and didn't want him to join the Scarlet Guard even though he did. Kilorn confessed his love for Mare in Glass Sword, but understood that Mare didn't feel the same way about him. When Maven Calore captured and imprisoned Mare, he mostly stayed with her family the whole time.
