Description: This eastern man is abnormally tall. He is generally well dressed albeit a few years behind the times. His whole body is exceptionally muscular. He has shaved his head bald. He has gleaming, smiling blue eyes.

Personality: He swings through moods quickly. One moment he is cool and collected, the next he is carried away by passions. He constantly seizes attention wherever he goes and has come to expect this respect from everyone. He likes to think of himself as merciful, but nonetheless is very strict.

History: Thamior hails from a village terrorized by orcs. Because his father participated in the massacre of their homeland, orcs burned their ranch to the ground and forced them out. He was preparing to flee to the east, but the outbreak of war prevented him and his mother from journeying east to reunite his family. He has taken up leadership of the village's small militia in response to orcs demanding more tribute than usual.

Personality: Aggressive, abrasive, and angry, Lamlis embodies much of what other species detest in the Elves. He disdains his fellow easterners, claiming they make him look unintelligent just for using an accent.

History: Lamlis was born into a poor family. Growing up, he dreamt of becoming a Wizard, to bring honor to his family’s name. When he came of age, he applied for a position with his town's local guard, looking to work his way up via merit and eventually become a Wizard in service of a powerful lord somewhere. He took every job he could get his hands on, but the opportunities for Elves in the east were limited. He has drifted apart from his friends and has been working freelance.
