History: He was born several months after his mother was called into army service. He sought a place where he would be rewarded solely on the merits of his skills.

Personality: She has a massive crush on the younger sibling of the Farmer who has hired her part-time. She is susceptible to being scared and is in actuality easily frightened. She likes to tell stories.

History: Her history is one of pain. She was disowned by both parents and raised among the slaves her parents kept. In her 12th year, while out on a day-trip, she returned to find her hometown burning and destroyed. She found her father impaled in their home, and her mother beheaded. She saw the woman who walked out, and charged her in a blind rage. The woman easily evaded and defeated her, leaving her to live broken and terrified.
