Description: A hulking woman with gigantic muscles, she wears a blue vest and prefers grey and yellow shirts. Her boots appear to have been at one point steel toed but are quite worn down. Her golden hair is braided into rings. Her eyes are violet and beady.

Personality: She is happy with her job as a Assassin. She turns her eye from what people do, preferring to live and let live. She will often invite strangers home for dinner and talk their ears off. She cares deeply for her spouse and does her best to make sure her guests look presentable.

History: Gifted from a young age, Lia studied abroad. She always admired martial-users and wanted to develop the talent, but never had the affinity for it. She ran away from her former home and has been making her living as a Assassin for the past few years.

Description: This woman is moderately tanned and has just the faintest trace of an accent. She wears a violet shirt with thin brown vertical stripes and black pants.

Personality: She is almost excessively polite to everyone, even when angry. She has the money to obtain near anything and knows that if you pay a woman enough she will sell her own mother. Money is her most trusted friend.

History: She was born a particularly ugly child, much to the horror of her parents. While she appears to be a normal Half-Elf, she's... not quite right.

Personality: He is extraordinarily eccentric. He is susceptible to being scared and is in actuality easily frightened. He likes to tell stories.

History: He was born with several neurological imbalances, which makes sleep difficult for him. It may also be what makes him so good at details. Cursed with vampirism at a very young age, Marbas has worked very hard to control his curse. He is untrained/undisciplined, which makes him dangerous.

Description: This tall, slender man wears a black vest and prefers brown and black shirts. His boots appear to have been at one point steel toed but are quite worn down. He has done his best to style his chestnut hair to look like a famous performer. His eyes are blue and beady.

Personality: He takes his job very seriously, in part because he fears he cannot get a new one. On top of that he is swayed by a pretty face, and while loyalty to his employer will always come first he doesn't like to hit men.

History: A studious child he never was much for a social life, not because he was unlikable, but because he did not seek it out. 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 Seamstress. He has set out to sabotage the competition.

Motivation: To be a Scribe again.

Description: A hulking woman with gigantic muscles, she wears a green coat over a black low-cut shirt, and a deerstalker hat upon her head. Her crest is rusty and very short. Judging by the bloodshot nature of her eyes and the massive bags underneath them one would imagine she has not slept for days.

Personality: Friendly and accommodating she would invite many more into her home than her spouse would be comfortable with if they did not express concern about it. She is afraid of women and trembles around them

History: She was born to a pair of big game hunters, but was frequently ill as a child. She was an adventurer many years ago and she formed a blood bond with her Elven companion (her 'brother'). Lacking all sense, she decided to go on an adventure. She picked a direction and started trekking.

Description: With yellow face paint in a stripe pattern across her face, she prefers to wear white clothing when she does not wear armor. She has moderate length chestnut hair. Her gray eyes peer out from beneath her top white hat.

Personality: Prone to second guessing herself, she comes off as nervous. She is underhanded and not above using her wealth and body to get others to do her bidding.

History: A studious child she never was much for a social life, not because she was unlikable, but because she did not seek it out. Ostracized due to the psionic powers of her oldest sister, she and her siblings struck out on their own. In the process these unassuming Halflings became a terror of the countryside. She has never given up on her poetry dream.

Motivation: She feels threatened by others; and she is terrified, and will act out of fear

Description: He wears a green feathered hat and green clothes, but does not cut a very imposing figure. He walks with a slouch but will stand straight to his full 5'6" when asserting himself. He keeps his purple hair in a flapper bob. This gold eyed northerner is not easily forgotten.

Personality: He has two modes he varies between. On the job he is cold, steely and emotionless. Off the job he is a party animal. He has the money to obtain near anything and knows that if you pay a man enough he will sell his own mother. Money is his most trusted friend.

History: He was born to a wealthy landowner in a frontier town, living a normal and happy childhood. His childhood dream was to be a Miner, but he was a colossal failure. He now has a substantial network of resources ranging from contacts to ships to peers.
