Description: This man is bedraggled and starved. He very much looks the part of a Shepherd. His white fur is lengthy and is close to two feet long. His eyes are likewise hazel. His teeth are yellowed and unaligned.

Personality: He is business-like. He takes instructions and follows them to the letter. He has no love for corruption and racketeering and views those as crimes of the highest magnitude.

History: He was born to loving parents in a slum to the north. When he came of age, he joined a caravan that would eventually take him to the capital. He would practice along the way and, when he arrived, be apprenticed to a Shepherd. He then took over the family business and is one of the better Shepherd for hire.

Description: He is wearing dark clothing and a heavy breastplate, keeping many of his physical features obscured. His attire stands in sharp contrast to his greatsword, which is beautifully polished and possesses an ornate carving of a dagger on it. His hair is golden and curly. His violet eyes are desperate and heavily dilated. He has the appearance of someone under the heavy influence of drugs.

Personality: He is soft-spoken, optimistic and speaks nonstop, as he rather likes the sound of his voice. His demeanor is somewhat feminine. 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, Nazdûg is combative with any and all who dare try his patience in the slightest.

History: His history is one of pain. He was disowned by both parents and raised among the slaves his parents kept. In his 18th year, his parents were killed by a illithids raid, leaving Nazdûg alone in the world. After a stint in an orphanage, he was adopted. Days after completing his studies, news broke out that his hometown was attacked by illithids. Nazdûg was horrified and prayed that his mother was alright. However, he heard that his mother had died fighting off the illithids.

Motivation: Several ex partners dislike his way of doing things and want revenge.

His fierce blue eyes like to dwell on things.

Personality: He cares much about the opinion of others, both in good and in bad: when keeping in line with his opinion, he thinks highly of the other person, but when opinions clash, he can get violently argumentative. Only to laugh say gotcha and shoot double pistol fingers at the fooled target.

History: Heir to a fortune, his parents put a great deal of effort into curing his disease. Cursed with unlife at a very young age, Senteq has worked very hard to control his curse. He has been a successful dealer in antiques buying low and selling high.
