Description: An imposing man with a heavy stainless steel prosthetic right hand, he is armored in gleaming platemail with gilded edges. A flowing pastel cape and mantle trimmed with soft red waves gently in the breeze. His fur is lavender, silky, and of moderate length. His face is covered beneath a completely black helmet.

Personality: He takes his job very seriously, in part because he fears he cannot get a new one. He is vehemently anti-magic. All of it is evil and corrupting in his opinion.

History: He got into the Marshal business at a young age. He helped his father out around the business and became quite the natural. He knows his nephew is from a royal line that had remained secret for centuries, but promised not to tell anyone. So far, no-one knows but him.

Motivation: Wants to open a new tavern; and sabotage a competitor

Ideals: Opinionated. Bonds: Rich, Attractive, Job. Occupation: Marshal

Voice: Pirate accent

Possessions: 290 gp. Zircon (60 gp). Silver pearl (60 gp). 1 Masterwork studded leather.

Description: An older man who wears a weathered and beat up set of banded mail beneath an oversized brown coat, he is not a threatening figure. His white hair is greasy and uncared for. Judging by the bloodshot nature of his eyes and the massive bags underneath them one would imagine he has not slept for days.

Personality: Friendly and accommodating he would invite many more into his home than his spouse would be comfortable with if they did not express concern about it. His respect, as difficult as one would find it to earn, is unwavering; those who more than prove themselves to him, a bar set well above any reasonable standard, he tolerates in varying degrees. Though less modest and more hasty in his reactions to snap at those who irritate him, Balimaar is combative with any and all who dare try his patience in the slightest.

History: He was born a particularly ugly child, much to the horror of his parents. A gypsy cursed him at a young age, leading to his ugly appearance. He now spends his time doing works of charity.

Motivation: To get a good night's sleep.

Ideals: Philantrophist, Justice. Flaws: Ugly, Insomniac. Occupation: Armorer

Voice: Russian accent

Possessions: Sardonyx (70 gp).

Description: He is an average looking northern male in his early mid-life. He is dressed in an above average manner. He wears his chestnut hair up. His skin is flawless and his brown eyes scan people very quickly.

Personality: He likes to fabricate stories about his past exploits and how crazy he is, but in actuality he is rather bland. He does not regard money as being a problem because it has never been a problem for him. He lives in a bit of an ivory tower believing all problems are one quick intervention away from being solved.

History: Raised by wardens he was only a novice when gnolls swooped upon their monastery and killed most of the order. He struck it rich when he found rare goods in large quantities. He has taken up leadership of the village's small militia in response to gnolls demanding more tribute than usual.

Motivation: His name or reputation has been wronged in the past by gnolls, and he desires to right it; and several ex partners dislike his way of doing things and want revenge

Voice: Thin and wheezing

Possessions: 130 gp. 1 Masterwork Uncommon Weapon.

Description: She wears loose pants and a collared shirt complete with sweater beneath her coat. Her skin is fair and her fingers are delicate and long. Her tied-back hair is auburn. Her face is full, her cheeks are rosy, and she always seems to sport a perfect smile and a twinkle in her gray eyes.

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. She is cautious and jumpy. She reacts to every sound and lacks any concept of subtlety.

History: She was born at the edge of vast forest. She found a children's book about a Gnome Sorcerer who fought for good and justice and never realised it was just a child's story. She modeled her life after the story, seeing herself destined a hero. She now travels the world, in search of power and loot.

Motivation: She wants to meet her childhood hero; and she's looking for her big break

Description: An older man who does not wear sleeves and tends to eschew shirts when he can avoid it, he is not a threatening figure. He keeps his long white hair kept up in a rat tail. His face possesses mild wrinkles. His smile is extraordinarily sincere though he does not smile often.

Personality: His voice, at times compared to that of a Nymph, lambasts those who consider themselves "civilized" with snide, belittling remarks; the subtle growl he speaks with growing louder in doing so, one can find it most pronounced, despite the otherwise natural purity of his tone. As long as the job gets done he does not care how it got done.

History: He is the product a well kept family trust fund and as such has never really known need. Ostracized due to the arcane powers of his oldest brother, he and his siblings struck out on their own. In the process these unassuming Half-Elves became a terror of the countryside. He now mingles about in high society.

Motivation: Money/treasure; and he wants to meet his childhood hero

Ideals: Professionalism, Gifted. Flaws: Cynical. Bonds: Rich, Adventurer. Occupation: Crown-heir
