Description: She is an attractive woman, lean and moderately muscular. She wears dark leathers with embroidery. She has wavy black hair. Her hazel eyes have a joyful gleam in them most of the time.

Personality: She has a very dry and sarcastic sense of humor. She is not one for noise or eating so much, which is in direct contrast with her big mouthed big gutted partner. Her partner is her best friend in the world. The two are very close despite being more or less each other's opposites. Any perceived weakness will be pressed and exploited. She is seen as merciless and passionate.

History: Sold as a small child to a necromancer, Lorilla was an assistant, and all too frequently test subject. She eventually earned her freedom when her former master disappeared. Her mother was very strict, and drilled into her lessons on being the perfect lady. She became a plane-shifter, and is stopping over on this plane for a brief visit.

Motivation: She is being blackmailed/forced/etc and this influences her actions; and she doesn't get along with people that don't share her tastes

Description: This man stands a little under 3'7" and is a bit bulky. He is very muscular particularly in the legs. He wears suspenders and tan workpants. His shirt is brown, and he wears a heavy tan leather apron most of the time. His hair is greying and his face has many wrinkles. Judging by the bloodshot nature of his eyes and the massive bags underneath them one would imagine he has not slept for days.

Personality: He is fixated on the number 54. He counts his steps and bites of food to keep in track with it. He seems to be used to being ignored and not questioned about it. He is a bit of a xeno-phobe, disliking non-Gnomes.

History: A powerful necromancer made him what he is. At a young age both his parents were killed in an accident. His uncle (a powerful person with enemies on both sides of the law) took him in and had him trained in basic self defense. He is untrained/undisciplined, which makes him dangerous.

Motivation: He will attempt to ambush and attack anyone he thinks he can take on alone and try to knock them out with non-lethal damage. If successful, he will try to sell them to his slave-trader contact; and he feels that his past leaves him morally obligated to help

Personality: He is very quiet and rarely speaks above a whisper. He lacks restraint and is impulsive. He jumps in and acts without thinking all too often.

History: He comes from a rich western family. Because his father participated in the massacre of their homeland, dire rats burned their ranch to the ground and forced them out. He was preparing to flee to the west, but the outbreak of war prevented him and his mother from journeying west to reunite his family. He has taken up leadership of the village's small militia in response to dire rats demanding more tribute than usual.

Personality: He is happy with his job as a Courier. He turns his eye from what people do, preferring to live and let live. He has the money to obtain near anything and knows that if you pay a man enough he will sell his own mother. Money is his most trusted friend.

History: He was born several months after his father was called into army service. He was an adventurer many years ago and he formed a blood bond with his Half-Elven companion (his 'brother').
