Description: He is of a modest build and height, but he carries himself more imposing than he is. He is bundled in multiple layers and is prepared for a desert trek wearing a turban that covers his face most of the time. His scarlet crest is slicked back into a classic pompadour. His voice is smooth and creepy, always level, but somehow just slightly unnerving.

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. He also hits on women, regardless of circumstances.

History: He was born into a rich family. Like his mother and his sister before him, after school he went straight into learning to become a Mercenary. He has recently attracted an admirer that believes he's playing hard to get.

Motivation: To settle down with his crush.

Flaws: Insane, Cynical. Bonds: Has a crush, Rich, Job. Occupation: Mercenary

Voice: Sighs a lot, exhausted

Description: She is a mite stocky and wears a grey armored body suit, with a simple tan line shooting up and back down. She wears her golden hair up. Her eyes are green.

Personality: She believes there is no problem she cannot solve with sufficient elbow grease and persistence, if it is the best or most economic solution matters not. She tends to be very friendly, and is drawn to music, the smells of food and wine, and out-door festivals.

History: She was born blind and as such lacked many opportunities for work. In her 12th year, her parents were killed by a illithids raid, leaving Nurkara alone in the world. After a stint in an orphanage, she was adopted. One night she noticed a nearby shooting star which she hiked out to see where it landed. It turned out to be an ancient artifact of some kind. She has done her darndest to repair it but it is currently non-functional.

Description: He has a missing left arm. He wears a white armored body suit, with a simple violet line shooting up and back down. His white hair is cut jaggedly and amateurishly. His fierce green eyes like to dwell on things.

Personality: He has a very dry and sarcastic sense of humor. He is not one for noise or eating so much, which is in direct contrast with his big mouthed big gutted partner. His partner is his best friend in the world. The two are very close despite being more or less each other's opposites. He misses his home and complains about the freezing weather, even in summer.

History: He was born the only child of a wealthy merchant. He was part of a huge silver rush, which was taken over by a mining company. The company confiscated a lot of silver, but the shipment was lost. He became a plane-shifter, and is stopping over on this plane for a brief visit.

Description: This western woman wears a simple burlap shirt and baggy pants. She conceals her crossbow with her veritable burlap sack of a shirt. Her clothes are grease stained in places. Her hair is red and curly. Her otherwise smooth face is marked with small tiny scars.

Personality: She is almost excessively polite to everyone, even when angry. She is stubborn though. She always likes to keep a trick up her sleeve. She likes to fight dirty and will kick and punch below the belt if she feels she even has a chance of losing.

History: Born the oldest of a large religious western family, she was no stranger to responsibility. Her parents died when she was young, and she was unceremoniously dumped in the city orphanage. Joan grew up in the orphanage, tormented by the older kids and famished from lack of food. To avoid death by starvation, most orphans take to a life of crime or prostitution (often both), and so did Joan. She would ruin relationships and cause injury. She was reprimanded several times before being given her current form and forced to learn humility.

Motivation: She will attempt to ambush and attack anyone she thinks she can take on alone and try to knock them out with non-lethal damage. If successful, she will try to sell them to her slave-trader contact.
