Description: With white face paint in a stripe pattern across her face, she usually wears her black robe and has her bastard sword always slung over her shoulder. Her auburn hair, when down, is lengthy. Her half smiles and amber eyes are beguiling and draw you in.

Personality: She cares much about the opinion of others, both in good and in bad: when keeping in line with her opinion, she thinks highly of the other person, but when opinions clash, she can get violently argumentative. She is always in debt, since she spends her money on lavish parties and gifts for friends

History: She was a bastard born out of an affair, and her mother always resented and mistreated her for it out of spite. Her parents died when she was young, and she was unceremoniously dumped in the city orphanage. Alice grew up in the orphanage, tormented by the older kids and famished from lack of food. To avoid death by starvation, most orphans take to a life of crime or prostitution (often both), and so did Alice. After a long history of fighting, Alice and her spouse have recently divorced.

Motivation: She will attempt to ambush and attack anyone she thinks she can take on alone and try to knock them out with non-lethal damage. If successful, she will try to sell them to her slave-trader contact; and seeks redemption

Description: Standing 5'11", this woman wears a yellow collared shirt and brown skirt. She accessorizes with a black scarf around the waist and a strap diagonally across her shirt. Her auburn hair is singed and shortened. Her gray eyes show the wear and tear of someone lonely with a great burden to carry.

Personality: She has two modes she varies between. On the job she is cold, steely and emotionless. Off the job she is a party animal. She is skeptical of what others tell her and is slow to trust.

History: From birth she was tutored by a cruel and relentless mentor. She was an adventurer many years ago and she formed a blood bond with her Human companion (her 'brother'). When she grew older, she became a bit more civilized, usually hanging around bars and taverns. She began work as a mercenary for hire. She would embark on any mission as long as the price was right.

Description: Relatively heavier built than your average man, he is not imposing. He tends to wear a large blue jacket. His chestnut hair is lengthy. He has several tiny amethyst earrings on each ear.

Personality: While he acts the brute, he is far gentler than he would appear. He invented a lineage for himself and claims to be descended from several legendary heroes.

History: His history is one of pain. He was disowned by both parents and raised among the slaves his parents kept. A few years later when the south was not economically sound they moved to his current location. 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.
