Dagron is the father of Ren and Baynon. A toy-maker and woodcarver, he struggles to provide for his family. He is played by Nick Cornwall.

Early life and family[]

Dagron was probably a native of the village of Lyngarth. More than twenty years ago he met Erin and the pair married. They had two children first the eldest, a girl named Ren, and ten years later a boy named Baynon.

Erin died under unknown circumstances while Baynon was just a baby, leaving Dagron to raise the children alone. However, something about Erin's activities had drawn the attentions of the Kah'Nath, and Dagron was forced to leave the children in the care of their family friends Torberry and Sophene while he surrendered to the Kah'Nath, hoping to explain that his family were innocent. It is not known for how long Dagron was interogated by the Kah'Nath, but he certainly seems to have encountered the Kah'Nath Commander and perhaps also the Master during this period, and it may have been during this period he acquired the leg injury which causes him to walk with a pronounced limp even into the present day.

Friends[]

Dagron seems to have a good friendship with Torberry, who cared for Ren and Baynon when they were young. He seems to have few other friends.

He's actively distrustful of Karn, who it is implied was a former friend of Erin's. He warns Ren not to spend time with him because he's brought nothing but trouble. But in the end of Series One he says to Ren "you must trust Karn, he's a good man." so his view of him is apparently ambiguous.

Personality[]

Still finding it difficult to come to terms with the loss of his wife, Dagron is struggling to make ends meet. Dagron clearly has a temper and clashes often with the headstrong Ren and Baynon's playful antics. He is frustrated at his inability to offer his children a better life.

Dagron is seen to make some extreme decisions under the desire to keep his family safe, particularly from what he fears are underly magics.

Skills[]

Dagron has a small market stall at which he sells small woodcarved toys.

Fate (spoilers)[]

Dagron is stabbed by the Kah'Nath Master at the end of Season One protecting Ren, and dies a short time later.
