Description: He is a paragon of his species. He is larger and stronger than most Humans. His skin is dark but he possesses many violet ritualistic tattoos. He does not wear sleeves and tends to eschew shirts when he can avoid it. His auburn hair is knotted and matted. He has a dull look in his amber eyes.

Personality: He seems absolutely devoid of it. He stares off into space and will respond with overly literal and minimalist answers to questions. 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, William is combative with any and all who dare try his patience in the slightest.

History: He was raised in a white middle class family as the only child. William was born on a far western plains where he grew up under the tutelage of his mother, an expert Carpenter. He knows his nephew is from a royal line that had remained secret for centuries, but promised not to tell anyone. So far, no-one knows but him.

History: Born to a pair of adventurers, Herleva grew up listening to her father's many stories. While she appears to be a normal Human, she's... not quite right.
