[Pard]

Forum Name: Pard (Ian)
Character Name: Grac'cus Zebadah
Race: Dwarf
Class: Warrior-Cleric
Alignment: Lawful Neutral

Personality: Grac grew up listening to the various bards who would come through town. He would sit on the edge of his chair with rapt attention as they would spin mystical tales about age old warriors who would single handedly take on the most evil of creatures and come out the victor. When he decided to become a warrior this was the image he held in his mind of his own self. Still he sees himself as one day becoming the strongest warrior in all the land. Grac is naive and ignorant to the world outside his mountain home. For a dwarf he acts like a human: very up front and very inquisitive.

Grac is loud and boisterous. He is a klutz outside of battle and is always worth a laugh or two. He cannot simply sit still, and this can be a problem. Like any good dwarf he thoroughly enjoys a good drink and loves to drink other races under the table. He tends to lie and stretch the truth.

(pro/con summary: + = friendly, funny|| - = clumsy, loud, gullible, ignorant

Description: Grac looks like the most stately of dwarfs. He wears his red hair in long plaits down his back. His beard is intertwined with strings of gold and silver (20gp worth to be exact) along with carved wooden beads of dwarfs and their mythos.

On his belt he wears a hollow tube which holds any scroll or scrap of paper he needs. He also wears a tankard on his belt and a assortment of leather pouches, which carry coins, among other things. He keeps a smoking pipe and a leather bag of tobacco in his beard.

Background: Grac grew up among his kin folk in the mountains. His father was a stonecutter and his mother was from the warrior clan. Grac had a choice between crafting and fighting. He took cutting, but soon found out he detested such tedious work. One day, while wandering the tunnels, he came upon a dwarven brewer. Grac made friends with the man and soon found a new love in brewing. He secretly skipped out on his stonecutting classes and learned how to brew many fine alcohols with his new mentor.

His parents soon found out, though, and they disapproved of his hobby. They decided to set Grac up with one of the clerics. He was very receptive to the job of a cleric and became a very devote follower of Gundin. Soon he decided that he must go and smite the enemies of Gundin to protect his honor. Grac began to wander off into the long forgotten tunnels to explore and defend Gundin's honor from the evil monsters that infested the tunnels, such as rats and small goblins. Soon he decided such small time jobs did not do him, or Gundin, justice and he planned to leave the mountains and become a wandering warrior.

He was given blessings to leave by his clan leader and set with a fine dwarven waraxe and a suit of mail. Although he found work as a warrior cleric he discovered he could make more money brewing, and he soon fell back into his old ways of brewing alcohols. Of course he was still a devote cleric and he helped Gundin whenever the opportunity arose, however these opportunities were few and far between.

[Antebellum]

Forum Name: Antebellum
Character Name: Ingolf Whisperwind
Race: Human
Class: Duskblade
Alignment: Neutral Good

 

Personality Ingolf's isolated life away from non-humans and non-Redragon believers has caused him to hold the human and Redragon beliefs in high regard. He is pleasant, but generally self-sufficient and self-indulgent, traits that make him appear haughty, uncaring, and unhelpful to others. This is not true, but he knows not the ways of the rest of the world outside The Temple and so does not know the error of his ways. Personal privacy and hygiene are very important to him, and anyone who disrespects those may find themselves at odds with him. He is very much not greedy and only takes what he needs, feeling that he will be stronger if the community is stronger. He holds in high esteem the ability to take care of oneself and someones skill with magic, arms, and art. He makes acquaintances easily, but true friendship and trust take time to build.

 

Description Ingolf Whisperwind is an average sized human. Standing at five feet seven inches and weighing 170 pounds, he is muscular yet not overly bulky. He is 25 years old, somewhat young for someone with his talent. His skin is fair and he has large green eyes that sparkle with a deep red-colored flecks. His shaggy hair is also a deep reddish color. In each ear are three bronze rings that rise up his ear. Ingolf wears an expensive silk tunic, with the end of its right sleeve dyed red. His right sleeve is embroidered with yellow thread in a fiery sunburst pattern, while on his left side, an armored sleeve and gauntlet offers him some protection. His silk trousers are of a simple pattern and dyed dark grey. On his feet are a pair of form-fitting black, supple boots that reach mid calf. His back holds a long, flowing cloak that almost reaches the ground. The cloak has an embroidered ancient Whisperwind crest on it. It is clasped around his neck by a thin bronze chain. Below these cloths, the edges of studded leather armor can be seen. The black armor is polished to a non-glossy sheen and studded with bronze rivets. He carries his greatsword, the blade wavy like a dragon's tongue, with reverences and skill upon his back along with a composite bow and quiver.

 

Background: Ingolf Whisperwind was born and raised in the Shadowhand Temple. The Whisperwind family is not considered nobility or any part of the hierarchy within the temple, but they hold a high standing. The family is known for their mastery of the ancient martial and magical techniques of the duskblade. A secret is held within the family though; one that not even Brynjar fully understands. The Whisperwinds are known for their knowledge of the ancient techniques and their willingness to take on exceptional students. Their oldest son, Ingolf, was one of these students. The family consisted of Renkiavel's Father, Brynjar, and Mother, Katharina Whisperwind, and his two younger sisters, Anna and Elisabet. One of his younger sisters took up wizardry and the other swordplay.

As is the way of life within the Redragon Temple, Ingolf was introduced to many different arts, crafts, trades, and professions in his growing up. Cooking was one of the trades that he took to exceptionally well and was quite good at, and so would often trade meals for clothing that his sister made. As he grew up, Ingolf learned the use of the greatsword, the favored weapon of the templars and priests of The Temple. He also was taught basic wizardry from the sages and learned the special techniques that allowed him to continue to cast spells while wielding weapons and wearing armor. When he was old enough, his father and mother taught him how to use the ancient techniques of the Duskblade to seamlessly blend the two disciplines together. Ingolf excelled in this form of swordplay and was soon one of his parents top students.

As the years wore on, Renkiavel felt the tug of the wanderlust that some at The Shadowhand Temple feel. He had seen many parts of of the surrounding countryside in his youth, but yearned to experience more places, more people. As he was approaching the halfway point of his second decade, he made a decision to set out to from The Temple and travel the countryside. He told his parents of this decision, and though they did not want to see him leave, were happy for him and threw him a going away party. He received many gifts and trinkets to remind him of home, and many wishes of good tidings. As he set out, he couldn't help but feel sorrow at leaving the world he had known for all of his life, but the anticipation and excitement were building in him so quickly.

[Tsukos]

Forum Name:Tsukos
Character Name:Mai http://www.rpgcrossing.com/profiler/view.php?id=19217
Race:Half-Elf
Class:Wizard
Alignment:True Neutral
Personality:Cynical, sarcastic, and bitter at most people, she continually feels she is being looked down on for no good reason.
Description:Mai, being a half-elf, is beautiful physically, with a shapely human figure and that aura of mystique that her elven blood grants.
Background:Mai grew up an orphan, the result of a elven man's foolish mistake. When all was said and done, neither parent nor their families wanted the child, and she was abandoned to the dubious care of an old wizard and beggar who performed simple tricks for coppers.

In addition to being an orphan and a street urchin, Mai was cut off from the normal friendships such scoundrels make as children, as no one wanted to be friends with the 'bastard elf'.

Mai quickly became wise to the ways of her small world, And sought to extract herself from it at an early age. By 10 she was extracting the simplest secrets of spellcraft from her guardian. By 15 she was working hard, at a number of legal and less-than-legal activities, to raise money. By 18 she was able to pay for an education for herself, intent on teaching herself magic.

The school she had to go to was none too friendly to nonhumans, such that most avoided it on reputation. But Mai had no other choices in the matter; she paid the money and endured the slings and arrows of her peers, studying hard for many years to learn more and more magic.

Upon her graduation and subsequent qualification as a wizard, Mai found that all her efforts, almost 19 years of hard work, were continually dismissed simply because of her race and background. Her goal now is to amass so much money and power that no one could say she was insignificant just because she was a half-elf who grew up in a slum.

Rashly beginning an adventure is perhaps not the best of ideas, especially for a wizard... but even great heroes of legend had to start somewhere!

[Kavrae]

Forum Name: Kavrae
Character Name: Ryn
Race: Changeling
Class: Rogue
Alignment: Lawful Neutral

 

As with most members of his species, Ryn prefers a subtle approach to life. He keeps his thoughts and emotions well guarded, speaking only when absolutely necessary. To many who are unfamiliar with changelings, this makes him appear slow and dimwitted; exactly what Ryn wants them to think.

Ryn has dedicated the remained of his life, however short or long, to restoring as much order to the world as possible. He learned early in his life that chaos only breeds pain and suffering. However, the very things he tries to prevent are often the tools to bring order to this world. Because of this, Ryn often becomes distant and unemotional when working. Unfortunately, all of these bottled up emotions must go somewhere; with alcohol as the catalyst for their release.

 

A physical description for Ryn, like all members of his species, depends entirely on what day it is. In his base form, however, he appears to be a shadow of a man. A 5' 1" tall man with a ghostly complexion and silver, wispy hair. Many of Ryn's facial features appear muted or even missing. This can lead to many of the more superstitious observers to think he is some form of ghost.

Ryn will typically wear muted colors in greys and browns, keeping his wardrobe as simply as possible. When he gets drunk, however, the brighter and stranger the better.

 

Military espionage and scouting.

Character Sheet

[Maiaya]

Character Name: Maiaya
Race: Elven
Class: Ranger
Alignment: Chaotic Good

Personality: Maiaya carries herself with dignity and a sense of obligation to pay back those who do for her.

Description: 127 years old, athletic build and about 5’4” tall.

Background: Maiaya was born to an Elven couple, who loved her very much. During the Merchant House conflict when she was young, her parents smuggled her out of the Kingdom to protect her from death, as the entire family was scheduled to be executed by the Elven Protection Force for their beliefs.

They came upon a woodsman and his wife and begged them to care for her. As far as Maiaya knows, her parents died in the conflict and the human couple had kept her safe the entire time. They raised her as their own, and taught her their beliefs and practices. She grew to love them as deeply as she loved her true parents, and stayed with them even as they grew older. They have long since passed on, but she finds herself deeply indebted to them for their protection in her time of need.

Maiaya searched for years, looking for the village she was told she was from, looking for the Merchant House that was her lineage. However, there has been no sign of the small village, and there is no record of the Merchant House. She fears she has lost everything.
