Description: A man with thick toned arms and a paunchy gut. He is well dressed, but even with his fine clothing he looks run-down. He has moderate length black hair. His eyes, though not visible through his cowl, are violet.

Personality: He likes to fabricate stories about his past exploits and how crazy he is, but in actuality he is rather bland. He receives visions of the future at random moments

History: Born in a small village he learned the ways of the warrior from his mother. While he appears to be a normal Elf, 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. Unlike his family, who was content to work in a sleepy main town, he wanted to work in the city. He has been working here for the past few years.

Motivation: To end his boredom; and he seems to be bored by most things

Ideals: Athletic, Gifted, Fighting. Flaws: Mundane, Insane. Occupation: Scribe

Description: This man stands a little under 5'5" and is a bit bulky. He is very muscular particularly in the legs. He wears a tan shirt with thin brown vertical stripes and grey pants. He keeps his auburn hair in a flapper bob. His otherwise smooth face is marked with small tiny scars.

Personality: In the realm of puns, he cannot help himself. He feels obliged to make them. He does suffer from mild PTSD, and the sight of brigands may trigger it at times.

History: When he was but 6 years old his parents immigrated from the east. He found a children's book about a Elf Wizard who fought for good and justice and never realised it was just a child's story. He modeled his life after the story, seeing himself destined a hero. When he grew older, he became a bit more civilized, usually hanging around bars and taverns. He began work as a mercenary for hire. He would embark on any mission as long as the price was right.

History: Sold as a small child to a necromancer, Dain was an assistant, and all too frequently test subject. He eventually earned his freedom when his former master disappeared.
