Ciar

Ciar Lupus is the True Demondrir of the City. He wields a staear, a staff with two star-like points at the tips. He is described as being cloaked in darkness, looking wicked and shadowed. Blaike remarks that if he continued to train to gain power, he might have ended up becoming a lot like Ciar. Ciar, as a result from becoming more demonic, becomes sensitive to light. Ciar, after failing to protect his son from Gallow's massacre of the latest member of demondrir clans, loses himself to the shadows, trying to gain power to revenge his son. He seems hell-bound on destroying the demons, and even the Aeokash. When Blaike tries to stop him, Ciar immediately believes Blaike is his enemy and even tries to kill him. Besides Gallow, Ciar can be seem as one of the antagonists of the Shadowed series. He is killed by Blaike when Ciar tried to kill him.

Background
Ciar, during the decennial meeting of the demondrirs, was leading the discussion. After promising to help the villages by sending City demondrirs, Gallow, disguised as a demondrir, attacks and slaughters demondrirs in the meeting. Thanks to Kevnen, some manage to escape. After running from the meeting, he runs home to rescue his son and escape with him. However, Gallow manages to corner them and shoots a beam at Ciar's son, as Ciar tries to defend him. However, his son is killed and Ciar tries to comfort his dead body. After, Kevnen, Ciar, Nereus, and Aiken go after Gallow. Aiken is killed after defending Nereus, Ciar is beaten up, and Kevnen manages to Fade Gallow's scythe. Gallow shortly disappears, but Ciar will never be the same person again. His hair turned darker that day, revealing he is descending into his demons.

Ciar, believing he needs to repay Kevnen for saving his life, helps Blaike when he is faced by the Elders. He believes that Blaike is the God-send needed to stop the war. However, he then realizes that he cannot trust Blaike.

Death
When Blaike tried to rescue the Aeokash, Ciar was there, sharpening his blade and getting ready to gut them, as compensation for killing his son. He found out, by beating Senka to find out what the Aeokash were and where they were hiding when he was suspicious of Blaike's response about where they were. Blaike sneaks behind him and speaks up when Ciar is about to kill an Aeokash. Blaike and Ciar have a conversation, and Blaike understands that Ciar is insane. Ciar then throws his staear at Blaike. He dodges it and throws a broken Aeokash antler he had grabbed earlier into Ciar's heart. Then Blaike grabs Ciar's staear with Cinis's help and slices his throat.
