Description: This eastern man's face is deformed and paralyzed on one side. As such, he slurs his words together. He wears rags and sports a simple walking cane. His brown hair is cut jaggedly and amateurishly. His eyes are likewise green.

Personality: He can speak with the dead, and doesn't see much difference between the living and dead. His philosophy is that everyone needs a friend and as such shows hospitality towards all.

History: Sold as a small child to a wizard, Theriatis was an assistant, and all too frequently test subject. He eventually earned his freedom when his former master disappeared. His parents enrolled him in a Wizard school at a young age so that he could practice his psionic talents. He was recently attacked on the road and savagely beaten by bandits.

Description: He wears a shirt and pants that are bristling with pockets overflowing with maps, compasses, and other navigational equipment. With a patchy chestnut beard and wild chestnut hair. He wears round tiny glasses practically rammed into his face.

Personality: He speaks before he thinks and is too direct. He has all his life been fascinated with singing.

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. Varis was born on a far eastern island where he grew up under the tutelage of his mother, an expert Animal Trainer. He has never given up on his singing dream.

Description: He is armored in gleaming platemail with gilded edges. A flowing blue cape and mantle trimmed with soft green waves gently in the breeze. His attire stands in sharp contrast to his glaive, which is beautifully polished and possesses an ornate carving of a card on it. His hair, while still mostly silver, has prominent grey streaks. His face possesses mild wrinkles. His smile is extraordinarily sincere though he does not smile often.

Personality: He has a very dry and sarcastic sense of humor. He is not one for noise or eating so much, which is in direct contrast with his big mouthed big gutted partner. His partner is his best friend in the world. The two are very close despite being more or less each other's opposites. A friendly and beautiful Elf, he is rarely seen without a few beauties around his arms. Though a playboy in all rights, he is no lame duck.

History: From birth he was tutored by a cruel and relentless mentor. Being born in the west, he completed his medical training abroad so as to avoid the war. He returned after the war having achieved medical proficiency. He was a general practitioner in the west for years, until he, through no fault of his own, lost a patient who had a very powerful family. Rather than risk reprisal he made his way south. 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.
