Tonic Mahale (IGN: Tonic88) is a Daelyrian noble and statesman, and chancellor of the High Kingdom of Daelyria. He is the patriarch of House Mahale, married to Wynafryd Mahale and father of three children. He is responsible for the massive development of Daelyria, he developed the successful city called Vhagaria in the Duskyon region in the eastern mainland of Daelyria. In more recent times he was elected Archon of Illeryon and Lord of Illerya by the Crown, being the first non-Petraryn to hold the latter position in the history of the city.

Appearance and Personality
Tonic is of taller than average height within Daelyria. He has district black features such as his long hair, his beard and his eyes. Being a 36 year old Daelyrian, he has a huge scar on his eye as a result of fighting in numerous Helmian conflicts. He wears a fur cloak, black boots, dark grey trousers.

He is of great kindness and mercy while juxtaposed with his ruthlessness and strength. He is of great intelligence however if the situation calls for it, he is not afraid to resort to violence and win at any cost. A distinct feature of Tonic Mahale is his honour, a trait many lack in the modern days of rathnir.

Background
Recent studies of daelyrian noble genealogy showed that the Mahales are part of the greater Ashborn lineage, like almost all daelyrian noble families. Baelor Mahale was already a noble of Daelyria and would be married to a important founding house of the 1st Kingdom of Daelyria; House Nymeros. Baelor married Mary Nymeros, the sister of High Prince Beastfrog Nymeros.

They would live together in a mansion in the original Daelyrian capital; Daelyria which was simply called after the nation itself. Baelor would engage in military operations and trading convoys to build up House Mahale. Eventually the high noble couple would bring into the world Tonic Mahale.

Childhood
Tonic's childhood was of great joy, he spent his years living a happy life while being educated by his parents. His father taught him about combat, economics, honour and his mother taught him about politics, courting and persuasion. When Tonic turned 17, his parents passed away as a result of a plague throughout the kingdom. Thankfully the grand maester had given his parents a remedy to pass away peacefully without pain. Tonic knew his parents were proud of him and had taught him to the best of their ability.

Early adulthood
Tonic would take head of House Mahale after his parents passed away. Turning 18, he left the original Daelyrian capital to take on new opportunities in the first colony known as Illerya. He bought a big house in the centre of the new town and went to work chopping trees down, expanding walls, constructing new buildings, forming new paths and so forth. He set up his own business within Illerya initially selling building materials as a result of the high demand as new people were coming in and needed such products to build their own structures. However not all was well in the progression of the kingdom as shipping routes were being attacked by pirates thus making transport of supplies from the capital to Illerya impossible and so Tonic set out with his father's small house guard and Daelyrian loyalist troops to hunt down the pirate group causing the havoc. The ships of the dragon and the sea snake collided and fighting ensued. Tonic landed on the pirate's capital ship and went straight for the wheel of the ship as thats where the pirate leader was and like his father said "Cut the head of the snake and the snake shall wither away..." He engaged in a duel with the pirate leader and parried every jab the big man made with his sword until he made a poor swing and Tonic quickly ducked and countered with a huge slash at the man's face cutting his face forever in half. This thus led to Tonic being knighted by King Unburnt Blackfyre; hence Ser Tonic Mahale. As a result of Tonic's hard work and contributions he was given a new task with high rewards; he was to go out and venture east to the sea and build a castle out of ruins. He went to work and successfully made the town of Vhagaria. Although the town isn't as spectacular as other towns it still held its own.

Early career
Becoming a lord through the successful creation of his own town/castle, Tonic made his first political rise in power. He was involved with development of Daelyria into the lands of Helmia, through making well sophisticated analysis of expansions ideas/plans as well as providing resources and builders for such construction. Eventually Tonic was given the position of master of lands due to his great contributions in such an area of expertise, thus making him into a high council member of the first Kingdom of Daelyria. Tonic is believed to be the true "4th founder" of Daelyria as a result of joining when Daelyria was in its first days and being an extremely helpful person in the development of the new found nation. (There were 4 founders of Daelyria, however only 3 stayed and made impactful contributions; this being Unburnt, Dusk and Beastfrog. The 4th founder was Striders? They stayed for barely a handful of days and didn't make any contributions apart from "founding" the nation therefore Tonic is considered to be the true 4th founder of Daelyria.)

Alongside his new promotions of positions within Daelyria, Tonic had found a wife. He married a noble girl Wynafryd, whose family name was of no significance especially since her family had died out, being the last family member she had been working hard to keep herself alive and find meaning to her life. Both of them would encounter each other in the fields of Illerya chopping down more trees to make room for expansion. The 2 immediately fell in love and would be married very soon....
