And although not entirely true since Anomen is from Athkatla, and Ajantis from Waterdeep,

Isn't that BG1NPC stuff, not BG1 cannon?

Well... I'm currently away for two weeks, so I don't have my own computer, and thus I can't start up a new BG1Tutu game to go check it out, but I guess we'd have our answer in Ajantis' biography, which, if I am correct is this:

When asked about his past, AJANTIS announces that he is a squire-paladin of the Order of the Most Radiant Heart, and that he enforces the power and discipline of Helm. He belongs to the noble family of Ilvastarr in Waterdeep, and has studied swordplay under such luminaries as Myrmith Splendon. His skill and devotion apparently brought him to the attention of the paladin Keldorn, one of the most respected of the order, who decided to take Ajantis under his wing as a squire. Recently Ajantis has asked for the honor of becoming a full-fledged member of the order. To accomplish this he has traveled to the Sword Coast, in order to help curtail the increased humanoid activity in the region. If he succeeds in his quest the order will vote on his eligibility for membership. He seems utterly devoted to his mission.

which I found here.
But I guess I'll have to take a look when I get home next week. (and that'll be an excuse to romance lil Ajantis again... )

Ajantis being from Waterdeep but being the squire of Keldorn is BG1 "cannon", so to say, as it is mentioned in his original bio.

Oh wow, I love this challenge
Galsic's Anomen really did it for me, though, the expression of contempt on Ano's face is just so right (and so wrong for him as a child ) and of course Sammi is my hero as always *goes off to collect every last one into my harddisk XD* little Tiax is particularly cute. Love the idea behind Doxia's pic too.

A quick work with photoshop, Valygar and his mother. I've always imagined that Valygar grew up watching his mother slowly descending into madness. But perhaps, at some points she'd have these bursts of lucidity where she can say that she loved him, and those are the memories that he might try to forget the most but also one that he'd secretly cerish. Just felt that way ^^;

Oh, Azri, that's beautiful!

Absolutely beautiful. And thank you for the story.

Sweet color and expression there Azri, real sweet! Love it! ^^

[Sammi Somara]

Aw that's amazing Azri!

[Isilven]

Azriiiiii, that's so lovely! Makes me want to hug him.

[Crazee]

Oh my God - that's absolutely beautiful, Azri. Fantastic work - it says more than any amount of words ever could.

[Cykuta]

Amazing work, every single one of them. It's always great to be able to admire talented people. I especially like young Valygar - he's got everything he needs. The tragic looks, the almost palpable love between them, the diagrams in the background that add a magical feeling, and the flowing scrolls, saying "memories", clear as day... Ahem. Yes. I'm just not sure about that white sleeve he's got, it makes sort of a hole in the picture, especially since it's quite in the middle of it. But no matter. Amazing work as always, Azri. (on a side note - are you an architect?)

[Amaurea]

Oh, Azri I am a huge fan of your work, but this one has blown me completely away. Just gorgeous!

[Ilmatar]

What wonderful entries once again! Azri's painting was touching, and Sammi overdid herself yet again. This challenge has now ended, but more entries and comments are still welcome!

Move on to being jealous!
