Description: A 3'3" western man, he is well dressed, but even with his fine clothing he looks run-down. He wears a Stetson hat to hide his balding. 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 will rave to anyone who will listen. He also is a firm believer in the manly ideal.

History: He was born the only child of a wealthy merchant. While he appears to be a normal Gnome, he's... not quite right. Perhaps he's slightly insane, or otherwise so mentally alien to the rest of the world that he plain doesn't fit in. He's also a talented Baker, but doesn't like to broadcast it.

He carries with him a set of rapiers on his belt, each one with a amber on the hilt. His white hair is cut short. He has gleaming, smiling brown eyes.

Personality: A skeptical and narcissistic man, Nelkin's first love is himself. His second love is also himself. The war was a terrible time for him, and Nelkin does not often speak of it. When he does, he does so with a strained expression and tears in his eyes.

History: He was born blind and as such lacked many opportunities for work. He graduated from the Naval Academy and went to see the world at the rank of Ensign. He advanced relatively quickly due to his good work ethic, understanding of the chain of command, and natural leadership ability.

Personality: Sumnes wants to be seen as a stoic, levelheaded, noble Monk, so she tries to act the part. She does a good job, for the most part... She keeps company with all sorts of races to see how they think and challenge minds foreign to her own.

History: Her father raised her in a mountain cabin. After coming to the age of reason, Sumnes took it upon herself to study the druidic arts in their entirety; because of this, she was labeled a dark omen and banished from her homeland.
