Kauplaire Deliarr is an assassin and trained actress from Junriar, a tourist town home to many other members of the Ulekiis species that is carved into the walls of a canyon. They are a talented marksman, always equipped with two small crossbows and a longbow when working. They used to perform at the theatre in Junriar, but haven’t performed there for over a year, instead performing their more recent job as an assassin to make ends meet. Kauplaire is a flamboyant, extravagant and eloquent person with a passion for the arts. Other than acting and theatre, Kauplaire enjoys writing, and has a diary of their own which they update with recent events.
Ifforrem is a Merrep outlander from the wilds of the Amojaran Plateau. She wields a colossal hammer and wears grime-coated but undented plate armour, neither of which she is seen without. From her time spent in the wilderness, she is experienced with survival techniques, practices and tracking. Ifforrem has a liking for mischief and trouble - which usually seems to follow her around - and often plays tricks on people, disregards rules and speaks her mind loudly, which usually causes lots of problems for her.
Dr Calian Zariastas is an accomplished researcher that has been transformed through soulbinding to be an Alinno. He hails from a small, and relatively isolated, volcanic island, where he used to conduct his research. He has an aptitude for tinkering and technology, producing his own devices and contraptions for a variety of purpose, including some for self-defence when performing field-work. He is incredibly intelligent but always seems to be sleepless and grumbly. Other than his inventions, his pride and joy is his database that he has created to hold his research notes, which he is often updating and appending before being asked to help someone, which he complains about the most frequently.
Ddwgyl Kaeffep is a Llotelyon priestess from the valleys of the Llaryan Mountain Range. She carries a trident that she crafted herself and wears a long, violet larota and an azure cloak, both from her druidic order. She has an innate curiosity for the outdoors, particularly geology, and spends most of her time outside; she is also free-spirited and fairly airheaded. She often crosses the valleys cataloging the rocks across the valleys and creating maps of the area. Ddwgyl evokes the power over water, and can manipulate and transform it to her will, an art that stems from her druidic order, which she often uses when traversing the rugged terrain of the mountain range and as a means of defence as well.
Vayens the Righteous is a Raunaegis commander from the the city of Pelasben. She owns twin swords with golden, curved blades, known as the “Blades of Shalingaire” and wears a suit of half-plate armour forged from rostele, an alloy commonly used from her home nation. Vayens is an imposing, strict and driven figure, unyielding and unrelenting with her goals, which are usually aimed at the betterment of the world around her. She commands an air of respect and intimidation wherever she travels and is skilled at giving orders and tactics, from her role as a commander.
Duchess Silaera of Ilrik is a Tonlen witch from the geothermal caverns of Ilrik. She sports an orchid-coloured dress, with lavender and white trimmings and wears a matching, conical, brimmed hat with a pink flower nestled in its ribbon. As a Tonlen, she can use innate psychic powers to interact with the world around her, and commicate telepathically. However, Silaera’s mastery of these powers is far beyond any of her peers, being able to project visions into others’ heads from great distances in addition to the repertoire of powerful spells she can cast unrelated to these abilities. She is a playful, yet caring soul, and is ever willing to help those that she finds in need.
Tauré Illenia is a human medic from the small village of Kemglais. He usually practices medicine and acts as the village’s resident doctor, but due to a recent surge in mysterious sightings around Clestuard, has been called up to be a guard in the Kemglaisian Militia. As a part of this, he wears the uniform of the Ammboine guard: a gold beret and striped uniform; and holds a standard-issue halberd, which he slouches against whilst guarding the entrances and exits of the village. In spite of this, he is a quiet, gentle and timid person and is personally baffled with the logic that lead to him being a standby for the militia.
Mr Charles Swanopoly is an ostentatious and pompous swan that somehow has the ability to talk. However, the only things he wishes to talk about are profits, losses, dividends and money. He is a conceited, greedy and fickle individual, switching sides freely.
Peter is an omniscient kitten, currently visiting Clestuard's dreams. He is only ever seen in a mathematical-limbo space when lost deep within one's thoughts.
