Personality: Although a good person at heart, he can be reckless and exhuberant. He has an unerring ability to get himself into trouble without even trying. His temper, on the rare occasions that it shows, is the cold rage that he has inherited from his mother.

Skills and Abilities: Possesses D'riel conduit but is still learning to use the magical abilities he inherited from both parents. Can shape-shift into raven form.

The son and eldest child of Y'Roden D'Riel and Arianne (Silverthorn) Badb Catha, Fechine at the time of 'Scorched Earth' is twenty-two years old. As his father's heir he was brought up in Corin and S'Hea and it is on Whispin that he has spent most of his life, although he has travelled to other realms such as Aerdon with some frequency.

At the age of seventeen, the youth was kidnapped by a demoness, Samara, along with his younger brother, Rhagi, and some of his cousins. Taken to her home in Tenobrous, the tortures he endured there have left their mark. His exuberant nature was tamed somewhat, the boy becoming quieter and more reserved. Shadows still lurk in his emerald eyes and nightmares still plague his sleep.

This quietness became more marked following his father's death and subsequent resurrection. Words spoken in anger by Y'Roden affected him deeply and left him with the belief that his family would be better off without him around because of his deeply flawed character. It was for this reason that he chose to participate in the Audyo Vahnai, a horse race across the Obsidian Basin that had the well-earned name of the Trial by Fire. He hoped that the sands would claim him, and they almost did. During the race Fechine was stung by a krilliante, a type of scorpion, and was only saved by his father's intervention. However, somewhat to his surprise, he managed not only to finish the race, but to win. The prize of an Obsidian Mare was later gifted to Meghan Ilessandra.

Concerned about him, his parents agreed that, provided he was willing, it would perhaps be best for him to begin his training with Arminiea Morelen, the Whispin Goddess of Light, at her home in the Crystal Keep and he has lived there since with only his best friend and fellow student, Meghan, for company.

Little Known Facts:

• After his parents' divorce and his father's re-marriage the emeralds embedded in the skin around the crest on his shoulderblade became merely the tattooed representation borne by all male D'Riels as he was no longer regarded as his father's legal heir, that status belonging to the son of his current marriage.
  
• For most of his life his pet and companion has been Keira, a talking tiger who was gifted to Y'Roden and Silverthorn on their engagement by Kara Little and Argon (the sire of Keira). Keira, however, remained in the nursery at Nenlante when Fechine went to the Crystal Keep.
  
• Fechine rides a Black Obsidian stallion named Barra.
