Aldric:
Name: Gryn
Homeland: He wishes that he knew...
Clothing: Scraggely. He wears clothes that have been worn down to the very last thread.
Appearance: He is very thin, and not quite healthy. He has to live off his wit because he is own family. Life is very hard for him and he always moving to a new place. Always searching for his lost family. The only thing he has to track is family down is necklace (it is also the only thing of value he has). It has a gold chain and attached to it is a rectangular piece of silver. On the front is a beatiful landscape, but on the back their is name: Nebuln. Everywhere he goes, he asks anyone, and everyone, if they recgonize the name.
Age: 23(???)
Special Powers/Skills: He currently has none, but he has been told by an eldery mage that he has the possibility for such things, such great things....

Amber:
Name: Anastasia
Nationality: Human
Appearance: Anastasia is small in stature, barely topping 5". She is that middle weight... not too thin, not too heavy. Many have commented on the brillant shimmering blue of her eyes, as well as the waterfall of brown hair, the highlights of red and gold catching the sun like water droplets, ending almost at her knees. She wears it in a braid wrapped around her head when traveling, but prefers to wear it down, with nothing but a brown wrap to keep it out of her face.
Special Powers/Skills: Anastasia is a minor mage, skilled more in the defensive magics than the offensive magics. She never had a chance to complete her training as her mentor died under mysterious circumstances. Since then she has been wandering, looking for a place to belong, and, hopefully, learn the missing pieces of her magical education.

Ámp:
Name: Jonas Avaré
Occupation: Former Church Knight of Laoghaire, wanderer
Age: 34
Appearance: Almost totally nonoutstanding, short brown hair, regular features, except for NEON GREEN eyes, heritage of Changeling blood several generations back.
Clothing: Half armor, traveler's clothing, and an overcoat-ish thing, all in shades of drab brown, gray, and black.
Weapons: A nine-foot long samurai-style curved sword, once called Masamune and carried by a certain legendary swordsman, several throwing daggers. The sword was the one worn by Sephiroth. After his defeat, a "Cult of Sephiroth" found it and tried to call Sephy's spirit back and trap it in the sword, but instead came up with a demon. Whoever used the sword could use that demon's power, but it eventually twisted the wielder around so much that they ran crazy, killing anything and everything. Eventually, the Church of Laoghaire got a hold of it, and covered the thing in holy relics to try and see if they could use it without going mad. It didn't quite work, so eventually they locked it up....
Special Powers/Skills: Magic rank, high Journeyman class, but you'd never notice, because of the aforesaid weapon... He's got a touch of Mindspeech, too.
Background: Jonas' parents disappeared when he was around 4 years old, he was raised by the Church. When he turned 13, he entered training to become a Church Knight. He was a fairly good hand with a sword, but excelled at magic (on account of his Changeling blood, he actually had the Gift), whereas most of the others didn't, and wound up only learning a few basic curative/defensive cantrips.... He was very successful leading a command, but soon became restless because he had learned all the "white" magic that the priests could teach him, and the Knights were strictly forbidden to use combative magicks... eventually, he stole the sword and ran, looking for someone to teach him, but eventually wound up teaching himself...the sword, with a powerful demon and equally powerful relics in it didn't make him go mad, but the sheer amount of power kind of... messed up his head a little... Now he's just wandering around, Perfectly sane, but... not all there.... He has no real belief in "doing good", only insofar as looking out for himself.

Name: Tiamat
Age: In actual years, close to 90...Angels age extremely slowly, he was in his late 30's when he became one, nearly 50 years ago.
Appearance: About 5'11, short brown hair going slightly to gray, pale blue eyes, dark blue wings.
Clothing: He still favors the loose half-robes and pants of a mage, usually in shades of blue or gray.
Background: Tiamat is one of the rare Angels who were not chosen from the Divine Knights- he was a promising Priest-Mage who was due to become a Bishop eventually when he was chosen. He chose the name Tiamat because of his Adept manifestation, which was a many-headed dragon (the Fiend of Wind-FFI). He still maintains much of his skills, with the addition of the ability to use a special type of Holy Magic which comes directly from Laoghaire. As he was a mage, his skill with most weapons is abysmal.

Caiata:
Name: Delane
Race: Pyerkind (not entirely human, nor elven, nor fairie)
Appearance: Delane looks to be about 16 to 17 years old in human years, but ageless to the other races. She has strikingly long, luminescent silver hair that reaches to her waist and is often left down, the more unruly strands being tied back in thin braids. Her eyes are of the darkest mercury, swirling pools of silver that are famed to hypnotize. Her cheekbones and forehead are swept up in an exotic bone formation that frames her eyes in shadows, and the ridges are studded with silvery tattoos that form strange and captivating patterns. She stands a curvaceous 5'0", every inch of her body nearly vibrating with the desires of every male.
Clothing: She dresses in all silver and grey, wearing grey suede boots that rise to just above the knee over a pair of grey-silver velvet pants that lace up the sides of the legs from ankle to waist. Her silver silken shirt drapes seductively off of her left shoulder always, showing off what seems to be a tattoo of a black, embellished infinity symbol.
Age: 470 years
Background: Born in the Forest of Pyer, a unknown land of great magickal potential far away on an island across a wide ocean, Delane was considered a blessing by all in her hometown, for she alone of the entire town was born with the legendary stigma, the birthmark on her left shoulder. Originally, it was green, in correspondence with the Pyerkind religion's goddess Humissa, a symbol that Delane was meant to be an earth and life sorceress, a vessel of goodness and light. But when her parents were brutally murdered by a violent gang of mercenaries, drunken and half-mad with the magickal water from the Lake of Pyer, her thoughts and intentions turned darker. Slowly over the years, the crisp green of her stigma faded to black, and Delane became more and more the darkness which haunted her. When she reached 16 years of age, she had become an Adept-equivalent at her indigent class of spells - the spells of Corruption and Death, the spells that her patron Goddess Humissa had worked so hard to keep from the world, the very spells that the evil Sardiek, Humissa's archenemy and Dark Counterpart, had purposely crafted. The final Corruption spell that Delane was taught (by Sardiek's grandchild Salio) was the spell she would rely on for the rest of her existance, one that allowed her to embrace and drink human or elven souls, and therefore extend her lifetime by half her victim's lifetime. Occasionally, even powers could be gained from this drink, although that was few and far between. Her first victim was a wise and learned mage of the Water and Magic class of spells, and from him she gained a vague knowledge of the workings of those spells. Her second victim was the man who had killed her mother, himself a Wind and Psyche mage, and she learned well from his soul before she absorbed it. As her soul-lust and hunger for power grew, she became addicted to the drinking, and the habit that she once performed occasionally (and only for necessity, to survive) became more and more occasional in its occurence. Slowly she learned the spells of the Wind and Psyche class, for learning a second Tradition takes much determination from a Pyerkind and is usually not capable in a normal mortal lifetime. Learning by day and seducing, scheming, and devising for the purpose of gaining wonderfully innocent souls to drink by night, she one fated day met a daemon in disguise. Through several fatal mistakes on the daemon's part, and one leap of intuition on Delane's, she was allowed to drink his soul. Absorbing this great evil and knowledge into her body and collective conscious (she will often refer to herself as "we" if not being careful), she experienced the greatest power rush of her life, and has spent the rest of her existence carelessly drinking from any vessel she can find, looking for a similar "fix", wandering from land to land, having been deprived of a home due to her evil nature.
Special Powers/Skills: Delane is a Pyerkind mage, an Adept at "Green/Black" or Corruption and Death spells, nearly a Master of "Purple/Black" or Wind and Psyche spells, and a Journeyman at "Blue/Black" or Water and Magick spells. Through her mastery of the C/D spells, she has gained a limited immortality - for as long as she continues to "drink" souls, she will never age, although it is quite possible to kill her. As a result of her "drinking" from the daemon, she has gained what is known to the Pyerkind as the Ancient and Fabled Curse -- having forsaken normal mortal needs, she now feeds off of the corruption and darkness in others' souls, and will only exist as long as evil is believed to exist. Delane may drink anything from water to alcohol with no repercussions, but partaking of food can be demoralising at best and fatal at worst. Another tenet of the curse is that drinking the souls of the innocent, the ones she found so tasty and addicting early on in her life, can cause her great damage, also possibly resulting in death. Because of this curse, she has spent the remainder of her life on the planet fueling the corruption and evil in others, so that she has something to feed from. Delane has absolutely no fighting skills, save the spells she has learned that have very limited combat applications (the Pyerkind, even the Dark Ones, are historically a peaceful, non-combatant people, hence their relative obscurity), and therefore fled from the Forest of Pyer when her true nature was revealed to the inhabitants, fearing her own death.

Darvoso:
Name: Sofaltis
Race: Half-Elf
Appearance: A wiry boy of about 16 years, 5'7" tall, cleanly shaven, and with piercing violet eyes. The clean lines of his face, almost crystalline in memorial to his elven heritage, accent his long, thick black/blue hair, braided so that it hangs just beneath his shoulders. Wearing his rangers garb, mottled forest greens combined cleverly with choice pieces of leather armor he looks to be a child of the forest. He speaks softly, the deep voice reassuring, and when he moves, his true grace shows itself. Sinewy muscles ripple beneath flesh, quite visible through his rangers garb. He watches the world with the eyes of one whose been betrayed far too many times....
Age: 30 years
Background: Born in the wild to the illicit pairing of a male elven scout and to a human female, his life was never easy. His mother birthed him, and died in the process, and her sister took care of Sofaltis, never questioning the elven name, just raising the child as it should be raised. But even she couldn't put up with the taunts, the jeers. So she gave him up to the elven woods figuring that if they wanted him, then the elves would find him. An elf did find him, but took pity on his obviously half-elven nature, as he knew such things would probably fare no better in the homeland. He went into his mind, and gave the young boy rudimentary controls over his weaning magic so that it would never be a problem, and then found a suitable father and mother, two half-elven Wilderness Runner scouts who would take him in. They did, and they raised him. They taught him how to do all the things that a scout must do, an elven scout even more so, until he so far surpassed their own skills, that they could teach him no more. So he wondered out into the world, dispossessed at the age of 20, and for 10 long, hard years, he fought and survived. He became learnt in the ways of man, and of elves, and was never sure if he would be a part of either. So much hurt, so much loss, so many friends lost to disease, hunger, or war. One war in particular affected him...the war on this Dark Adept. Scouting the Kaladh, he found the fortress, in fact, he was able to sneak by all but it's magical guardians, and he shied away from those, but he knows that even with the desire for revenge will not sustain his wish to utterly destroy this foul creature and his spawn. So he came to rest at the Inn of the Midnight Sun, and he waited.
Special Powers/Skills: He has his inborn talents at being a Wilderness Runner that he can ignore temperatures unless they exceed 100, or drop beneath freezing [fahrenheit! :)] He has the stamina and prowess of a scout and fighter, but beyond that, very little. He has, at most, journeyman level magic, and basic mindspeech. His one excellent talent is that of earth magic, and shielding. When he chooses to hide, he hides, and well...but all his control is instinctive, learned early by mysterious ways...
