Caramon Majere (326 AC - 38 SC) is a fictional character from the Dragonlance series of books.

Biography

Son of Gilon Majere and Rosamun Aelan Uth Matar, twin brother to Raistlin Majere and half-brother to Kitiara Uth Matar.

The son of a woodcutter, Caramon's birth was a complicated one. Caramon (the first born), was strapping and healthy. Raistlin, however, had to be nursed to health continuously by their half-sister, Kitiara. His father, Gilon, died in an accident when Caramon was only sixteen years old. Soon after, his mother, Rosamun, went into one of her delusional trances and never came out.

Caramon met Sturm Brightblade in his early teens; they did not get off to a good start. The two got into a fight because Sturm insulted Raistlin. Tasslehoff Burrfoot discovered the young boys and decided to "adopt" them. This is how Caramon met Flint Fireforge and Tanis Half-Elven. The six companions (seven with Kitiara) went on many treks as an entourage to Flint's business. Soon, though, the companions decided to separate to find some truth to the rumors of war. Raistlin had other plans.

Raistlin was to take the Test of High Sorcery and Caramon accompanied him on this trip. During the Test, Raistlin killed an illusion of his twin, which Caramon witnessed. Their relationship has been strained since. The five years following this, the two brothers became mercenaries to learn how to combine magic and steel effectively and became a very lethal team in battle.

Caramon was the strongest of the Heroes of the Lance, and a fearsome warrior. He was trained in a battlecraft by his half-sister, who later became a Dragon Highlord in Takhisis' dragonarmies. Although they were complete opposites, Caramon was never far from his twin Raistlin. Much of Caramon's experience in combat came from dealing with the charlatans and fakes whom Raistlin delighted in exposing and humiliating.

Caramon was one of the heroes who brought the War of the Lance to an end and was instrumental in the defeat of Takhisis and her dragonarmies.

After the War of the Lance Caramon married Tika Waylan, and had five children: Tanin Majere, Sturm Majere, Palin Majere, Laura Majere and Dezra Majere.

Caramon also later became a grandfather to Ulin Majere and Linsha Majere, son and daughter of his son Palin.

He died in the year 38 BC after falling down the stairs at the Inn of the Last Home.
