NPCs in Charon Charon is a vibrant world with characters from all kinds of cultures and walks of life living within it. Some of these inhabitants have more impact on the world than others. This list details important non-player characters (NPCs) that can be found across the continent. These NPCs can be referred to and even encountered in threads.
The important thing to keep in mind is that these NPCs are important characters to both the world at large and the overarching story of Charon. If you use or reference one of these NPCs, use discretion in what kinds of things you do with them or have them do. None of these NPCs are allowed to be permanently injured or killed. They also cannot be influenced by your character in any way that gives you an advantage over another player character. For example, you can't kill or marry these NPCs, or have any of these NPCs as a player character of your own.
This list is separated into different regions and is a living archive. More NPCs will be added over time.

Capitol Landing Eldenwar Solarian, High King of Charon
Capitol Landing, Sun Elf, Male Appearance |
|
Description | Personality | Eldenwar is the current High King of Charon, Emanious's youngest son, and considered to be a fairly kind ruler. He inherited the throne after his oldest brother went into exile. He Is married to Alessia Solarian and has two children, Alemeno and Alyssa, with Alemeno set to inherit the throne. | Eldenwar is a kind, brave man that truly loves his kingdom and its people. He strives to create a better Charon. Despite this, peace has made him complacent, he has never experienced war or conflict, with the majority of his council making the hard choices. |
Sol City Royal Family Queen Consort Alessia Solarian
Capitol Landing, Sun Elf, Female
Appearance |
|
Description | Personality | Alessia Solarian, (nee. Omarie), is the wife of High King Eldenwar, Queen Consort of Charon. It was to her immense surprise after being betrothed to Eldenwar that instead of becoming Duchess of King's Valley, that she was instead thrust into the spotlight of the regency and all that entailed, only a few short years after her matrimonial journey to Sol City. While not educated in statecraft or in the leadership role she now holds, Alessia is skilled in matters of mediation and persuasion, making her an effective advisor to Eldenwar.
| Alessia is dignified and elegant, the very pinnacle of stability in these most uncertain times. At her husband's side, she fulfills her role as confidant and careful advisor, though she has little mind for strategy beyond the standard social engineering of day-to-day court life. While supportive of her husband, she often finds herself frustrated with his perpetual cheerfulness, especially given the rising tensions across Charon. She has made requests for added security in Sol City, especially at the palace, should the people of Charon turn on their divine leaders.
|
Capitol Landing, Sun Elf, Female
Appearance |
|
Description | Personality | Born identical twins to the King and Queen of Charon, Princess Alyssa Solarian is well-known for being shrewd, and oft times cruel. It is said the only person she truly cares for in all of Capitol Landing is her elder brother, Almenos... though it does rankle her, a little, that she was not named heir to the throne. She believes her brother to be ill-suited to the task, though she is determined to help him regardless. She has suspicions about the truth regarding the circumstances of her and her brother's birth, but knows better than to ask.
| Ambitious, forthright, and sharp. Alyssa is a polyglot, an accomplished player of no less than six-instruments, a master of chess, and has taken an interest in archery and the borders of the Capitol itself. It is thought that she is a fervent supporter of the Golden Company, an anti-witch militia group that has roots in Sol City and has been spreading throughout Moonglade to weed out heretics of Solaria and seditionists of the Crown.
|
Crown Prince Almenos Solarian
Capitol Landing, Sun Elf, Male
Appearance |
|
Description | Personality | The Crown Prince of Charon, Almenos Solarian takes closely after his father. Known for being personable, jovial, and the life of the party (and there are many, many parties), Almenos has won many allies and a not inconsequential number of enemies. In many ways the opposite of his twin sister, Alyssa, Almenos speaks boldly of his accomplishments, with such bravado that one would have a hard time not accusing him of being a braggard. Even so, he is generally well liked among royal circles even of other families... even if partying and scandalous dalliances seem to be what he's best liked for.
| Being the Crown Prince is a heavy burden to bear for one who does not wish to wear the crown. Almenos would much rather have become a Knight Errant, travelling Charon in service to the Crown, like in his stories. While he is an idealist, charming, and terribly convincing, His playboy reputation is, unfortunately, no facade; it is the only life he has known, spoiled on excess and entitlement granted someone of his station. The only person who seems to have any sway over him at all is his younger sister, Alyssa, who has done wonders to reign in some of his worse impulses.
|
Capitol City, Half-Elf, Male
Appearance |
|
Description | Personality | Ward of the Solarian family and nephew of King Solarian, Gideon is technically first in line to the throne... or he would be if his father, Eldacar Solarian, former Crown Prince to Charon had not been exiled in disgrace. While he will never be allowed to rule (it is even uncertain if the Solarian's will allow him to marry), he has a reputation among the staff at the palace as a studious and thoughtful man. He is currently serving as a Page under the tutelage of Reichsritter Volariil Aedael, the head of the King's Guard. Despite the "general unpleasantness" that is his parentage, Gideon is well treated, if distantly by his cousins, the Solarians, though Eldenwar seems to have taken to him the most readily. Now if they could just do something about those pesky scales. And that tail.
| A meek young man who houses a profound and thoughtful mind, Gideon knows he does not quite belong here, among these people who banished his father and ripped him from the arms of the one who bore him, among other elves who would turn their nose up at the half-blooded 'reason' for his father's disgrace. Though he does his best to hide it, Gideon does have a temper... one that can make it's presence known through gouts of fire. Volarill Aedael took him under his wing to help Gideon avoid any further trouble, and to help him better understand his origins. Even with the occasional outburst, Gideon on the whole is a kind soul who wants more out of life than just these palace walls in which he is trapped. In reality, Gideon has no idea just how precarious and complicated his situation truly is.
|
Exile, Sun Elf, Male
Appearance |
|
Description | Personality | Eldacar Solarian, elder brother of Eldenwar, was once first in line for the throne. Exiled for crimes against the Crown, The Solarian Royal Family, and the Gods themselves, many believe him to be an interesting, if long irrelevant, point of history. It happened long enough ago that there are many people alive today who had never heard the name Eldacar, or known that there could have been a High King other than Eldenwar, a fact that rankles Eldacar thoroughly. His tenure in exile has been a careful one; alternating between the Marsh Flats and The Dragon's Cradle, Eldacar has found a following in the more extreme members of society-- but they are simply a means to an end. His plan is to return to the Old Days of the Solarian line and declare himself Imperator, removing the title of all the other noble elven families from their home cities... unless they bend the knee. Despite his status as an Exile, Eldacar remains powerful; many who know the history or simply remember who he once was, consider him the rightful heir, This alone has championed many to his cause against the Crown, a cause made that much easier by the excess, negligence, and general distrust of the citizens of Charon, particularly the more ignored locales. The Crown has, very wisely, guaranteed that despite Eldacar's growing following, the Exiled Crown Prince would not attack Capitol Landing; his son, his only known child and only potential heir to the Imperator title, Gideon is being used as a shield of convenience to prevent Eldacar from taking advantage of Charon's disarray, and take back what he believes to be rightfully his. But, Eldacar is a patient man. A former Master of the Hunt, he knows how to bide his time.
| Being forced into obscurity, demeaned, slandered by his own family, and having his birthright stripped from him has caused Eldenwar over the many years of his exile to change. He has only grown more certain of his ideal role as Imperator of all Charon, that it is beyond birthright and has become more akin to destiny, one with which he intends to reshape all of Charon in. A better world, under his iron fist. Eldacar holds himself with the grace and poise of the High King he ought to have been, but make no mistake; Eldacar is still every ounce of his Royal lineage, perhaps even more so than Eldenwar. Where his younger brother is jovial and prone to spending money, Eldacar lives an ascetic lifestyle... and thinks everyone else should too. He is strict and terse and will offer no mercy when he tries to retake the throne.
|
Unknown, Unknown, Nonbinary
Appearance |
|
Description | Personality | One of the reasons Eldacar was exiled was his forbidden relationship with an individual known only as Ellaeddyf. Not much is known to the public about this person, but in Dragon's Cradle, they were quite well known. The pair met while Eldacar was on campaign in the mountains, and hit it off quite well. Too well, according to some sources. Whispered rumors range wildly: Ellaeddyf bewitched Eldacar with dark magic to convince him to betray the Crown; that they made Eldacar see the error of his ways and turn on his family; that he did everything he did out of love for Ellaeddyf. What is known is that they are a powerful sorcerer, that their whereabouts are currently unknown, and that their son, Gideon, resides in the gilded cage of the Solarian palace. Very likely, as they are assumed to be a Fellblood, general consensus is that Ellaeddyf died long ago.
| Playful, sweet and capricious. Not much is truly known about them outside of the scant memoirs of soldiers on campaign in the mountains of Dragon's Cradle, but it appears that most of what is known of Ellaeddyf has either been edited within most historical text to be decidedly unflattering, including the aforementioned memoirs themselves, or has had any and all references to them simply destroyed. Although these things are true and Ellaeddyf is thought to be dead, every year on the anniversary of Gideon's birth, a little gift arrives at the palace for him. The note attached is always unsigned, but even so, the Palace has gone to great lengths to ensure that Gideon will never see the contents of these gifts under any circumstances.

Captain Volariil Aedael, Baron of Dragon's Cradle
Capitol Landing, Sun Elf, Male
Appearance |
|
Description | Personality | Volariil Aedael is a man who is best described as larger than life. He has always been and will always be gregarious and impossibly skilled at whatever he puts his mind too, making him both a subject of envy and awe within Sol City and the realm of Charon at large. He is tall and broad shouldered, well built from a life of martial training yet not in a way that is frightening or off putting in anyway. Having grown up alongside Eldacar, the exiled Solarian, Volariil has spent his whole life among the Solarian's and takes his role as the Captain of the King's Guard seriously. He rose through the ranks believing he would be at Eldacar's side, and was quite dismayed when he was forced into exile. Knowing he served the Crown first and foremost, he chose to remain in Capitol Landing to serve the High King and the new Crown Prince. The whispers that have come about from his unique relationship with the Queen and the legitimacy of the prince's and princess's heritages are of little concern to the man, and he does not nor has ever fanned the flame of them in anyway. His closeness to certain members of the Royal Family, past and present, brings many a curious eye to his actions and the nature of what he and they mean to one another. The rumors he vies for the throne have grown as of late, especially as his personal demesne has grown rapidly in recent years. This influx in wealth and power, and not to mention men-at-arms is concerning to more then a few of the nobility, and the reasons for such are known only to himself. His personal retinue becoming much like that of a small order of knights as each of them have been knighted by Volariil and go through the most rigorous training available. | Volariil is cunning, kind, charming, and powerful in every sense of the word. His demeanor and the air about him can feel both stifling and empowering all at once, making him seem like a maelstrom of personality constantly pushing and pulling on you once you are caught within his sweeping persona. He himself knows all that he is, and his confidence is legendary amongst the nobles of the realm. Most if not all would say that he could stare down a dragon and come out with an ally.

Duchess Caraelle Fernando
Capitol Landing, Sun Elf, Female
Appearance |
|
Description | Personality | Duchess Caraelle Fernando (nee. Omarie) sister of the Queen Consort, has recently become a widow after the tragic assassination of her husband, Duke Francois Fernando, in Sol City. While her husband died in the streets, her estate mysteriously caught fire, and she and her family were left with the scars of the incident. While she had no especial love for him, Caraelle is fiercely protective of that which she perceives as 'hers' and will not tolerate such flagrant disrespect of the Crown, her family, or her person. Thus, is on the hunt for those responsible, and as a diplomat who travels to the different areas Charon often to see to it that the Crown is being held in high regard, she certainly has the connections to find out who it was indeed. While often at odds with her elder sister, Caraelle is often at Alessia's side, detailing her own thoughts on how to better manage Charon at large, words that she hopes Alessia passes on to the High King-- a man as simple as he is incompetent, in her view. As such, she is extremely close with her niece and nephew; young minds are so much more easily shaped.
| Caraelle has always been a proud and opinionated woman, and her time in service to the Crown as a diplomat has not softened her at all. If anything, it has made her bias against other elves especially that much stronger. Unlike other nobility, however, Caraelle does not hide her vitriol beneath a pleasant mask; it is plain for all to see, and she does not particularly care who sees it. She has a talent for being civil and amicable while thoroughly insulting others, and is not afraid to use the power that her status gives her to get what she wants. There are many in Charon who owe her favors, and in light of recent events, she plans to start making good on those collections soon.

Capitol Landing, Half Sun Elf, Half Moon Elf, Agender
Appearance |
|
Description | Personality | Third Cousin of King Eldenwar, Poldo is a Ward learning statecraft to better advise Moonglade, part of an interfamily exchange program. They seem to relish being immersed in the culture of the Sun Elves, and does not seem to pay any mind to those who would think lesser of them as a result of their mixed heritage. Their progress speaks for itself; Poldo is on the way to becoming a fine diplomat, learning how the Crown expects things to be run and handled so that they may better advise Princess Nimia in Moonglade when they return. This is, of course, a fair cover for the truth. Poldo is a junior spymaster of Moonglade, and their presence in Sol City is by no means an accident, and nor is it simply for the purposes of learning to be a diplomat. They are gathering information at a rapid rate; the Solarian's have either lost their touch, it seems, or they are better at misdirection than anyone could have thought. In either case, Poldo is gaining valuable intel for their people. Now they just have to survive long enough to return home.
| Cheerful, bright and full of mirth, Poldo is a delight to be around. There is no denying their intelligence, as Poldo enjoys many avenues of study that they are quickly becoming a master at. In spite of the trappings of noble life being quite tempting to give in to, Poldo strangely seems to refrain from the general debauchery of the nobility in the Capitol at large. They partake in parties and events, but only to the barest minimum, offering quips and jokes to keep things lively. Otherwise, they are very quick to offer advise to those closest to the High King, especially in matters concerning Moonglade, so hopefully even out some moderation against the more militant voices in the Solarian Royal Cabinet. While Poldo is very social and gregarious, little is known about their personal life save for the small details that they deign to reveal about theirself.

Athena Morok, Martial Dean Capitol Landing, Fellblood, Female Appearance |
|
Description | Personality | Athena grew up in combat, training under previous martial masters and honing her skills in the field. At a young age she moved up through the ranks of the Fighter's Guild, eventually becoming its leader. After several years of growing and improving the guild, she also took over as the Dean of the Martial Academy, teaching and training the next generation of warriors. She has gone missing over the last few months. | Athena is practical and level headed, stoic and determined. The definition of a self-made woman, Athena is the middle child in a family of farmers, with nothing lined up for her in life except, maybe, a marriage. Athena took her fate into her own hands and started to work really soon in the city - not her family's farm - which eventually led her to be discovered by a master swordsman.
|
Sor'Adien, Arcane Dean
Capitol Landing, Dragonkin, Male Appearance |
|
Description | Personality | Sor'Aidien is a genius mage who has spent his entire life training and studying under some of the worlds best mages. He hails from a noble family of spice merchants that are well known throughout Charon, but chose to study the arcane arts instead of continuing the family business. He spent most of his life in the Mage's Guild, becoming an important member of the King's Council and holds a place in the Crown's Court. More recently he took over as the Dean of the Arcane Academy, and has already started making big moves. | Despite his nerdy and focused nature, Sor'Adien can be very brash, impulsive, and more importantly, he loves challenges. Some people speculate that his climb through the ranks of the Arcane Academy hinge merely on a drunk dare from one of his uncles who was trying to have him give up on his studies to focus on the family business. It is widely known that Sor'Adien loves a good dare. |
Sigmund Corvinus
Dragon's Cradle, Osendel (Human), Male Appearance |
|
Description | Personality | Leader of the Winged Expeditionary Force, Sigmund Corvinus represents the guild that has the closest ties to the crown as it was initially a military task force commissioned by the king. Though the leader of the guild, Sigmund is often absent from Capitol Landing leaving his secondaries to deal with any political fallout that his actions could have caused. | Sigmund is a gregarious individual with a severe case of gallows humor. With as many life or death situations he has survived there’s not much else that he finds more hilarious than clinging to the edge of a cliff or facing down a giant avianbear. These situations are used to tell tales at whichever tavern in Charon that Sigmund finds himself at and within you can easily find the giant of a man surrounded by people listening to him tell those tales wondering if they were true or not. |
Madam Evalyn
Ash Lands, Fellblood, Female Appearance |
|
Description | Personality | Evalyn is a sorceress from the Ash Lands who now spends her time working in Sol city. She has left her life of witch craft and now studies weird and interesting things rarely found around Charon. She has taken a scientific approach to understanding the darker, more mysterious aspects of magic and the world itself. She is most commonly known for her shop in the city that sells odd, sometimes frowned upon services. | Evalyn is a coy and flirtatious woman who has spent most of her younger years as a witch in the north. Having turned a new leaf, her old habits and personalities sometimes peek through. She can be devious, vindictive and loves to tease others, for good or bad. Despite her past, she has now become an important part of the city and the greater Charon. |
Corvak Tumbletoe Moonglade, Gnome, Male Appearance |
|
Description | Personality | Corvak is an enchanter from Moonglade who has spent his life studying magic and its affects on other items. He now works for the Crown and specializes in crafting rare and unique magical items to be used. He is the go to expert when it comes to the advancement of magical technology and is always looking to create new items. When he is not working on the Mystical Archive he can be found in his shop selling some of his items. | Corvak is simple, kind man who enjoys reading, tinkering and sharing a conversation. He is a tinker at heart and would rather spend his time crafting then entertaining others. When he does have company, he greets them kindly and makes tea, ready to tell a story of the old days. |
Herbert Alvini
Dragon's Cradle, Half-Orc, Male Appearance |
|
Description | Personality | Herbert is a warrior from The Dragon's Cradle who has been in countless battles and has even lead troops across the battlefield. Now a retired veteran, the Half-Orc works in Sol City, training and teaching others how to fight. He believes that everyone should be capable of defending themselves. His shop is one of the best places in all of Charon to learn new techniques and train themselves further. | A proud but kind man who values life and has seen a large amount of violence and bloodshed in his life. He know believes that his purpose is to train others, preparing them for the world. He loves to laugh, spend time with his family and wishes to bring peace tp his land. He is an active member of the community and also advocates against war. |
Gottfried von Hedelsen, Legionnaire Marshal
Capitol Landing, Half-Dwarf, Male
Appearance
|
|
Description | Personality | As commander of the Legions of the Black Sun, Gottfried finds himself as the force to maintain peace across Charon as the main threat to that same peace. As such you will often find him as quite a recluse so as to avoid being seen as favoriting any particular political position.
| Despite is self inflicted reclusiveness, Gottfried is quite the gregarious individual and before his assignment as Legionnaire Marshal was known to host quite the social gatherings around Capitol Landing. On the battlefield that gregariousness morphs into a more barbaric frenzy as one can hear a deep laughter echo in time with the cleaving of his two handed sword. |
Father Lucien, Head Priest and Liason to the Gods
Capitol Landing, Sun Elf, Male
Appearance
|
|
Description | Personality | Considered elderly even by Elven standards, Father Luicen has been the head priest of the Golden Temple for a very long time. Longer than there are records of his employment, or so it is said. He is a member of the High King's Royal Council and the final voice in matters of the law, if they cannot be agreed upon in court proceedings. His judgement is final, in the eyes of the gods. Recent revelations he has denounced as heresy against the Golden Family, and vowed that they will be dealt with accordingly.
| To be in his presence is to feel wholly unwelcome, not only in his vicinity, but on this plane of existence. While he speaks with honeyed tones and a silver tongue, Father Lucien is a wolf in sheep's clothing. In the name of the Gods, he has exacted cruel and unusual punishment against suspects and offenders alike, and is not above claiming rank above that of certain members of the Royal Families, should they happen to step out of line.
|
Alius Skyborne, General Postmaster of the Royal Mail Service
Capitol Landing, Dwarf, Male Appearance |
|
Description | Personality | The third General Postmaster of Charon to have been appointed to the position since its establishment in 14180. In his youth, Alius was a messenger for the Royal Mail Service. He introduced the first Postal Drake to his home of Sky Peak in 14820; and then continent-wide in 14970 after his appointment to General Postmaster. He has done much for the Royal Mail Service since then, but rumours state that Alius may be at the end of his lifespan, and a fourth Postmaster may soon be appointed.
| An old man deeply passionate for his work. Alius has a reputation for becoming hyper-focused to the point of self-neglect, and often must be reminded to take care of mundane tasks. He always seems rushed; and is always going somewhere, or always busy with something; making him a hard man to find. He is soft-spoken, hard-working, and has been a massive boon to optimizing the processes in his field.
|
Yakov Vasilievich Sol City, Human, Male
Appearance |
|
Description | Personality | Yakov is the eldest Vasilievich brother, and the head of operations of the Observatory in Starfield in Mooglade, the first human to hold such a prestigious position. A gifted Elementalist, Yakov took to astronomy at a young age when he was introduced to the auroras of Frost Gale. Now a tenured professor with the Arcane Academy, he runs a program for budding students of the arcane with an interest in astronomy.
| Where his younger brother, Viktor, is well-liked, Yakov is simply tolerated. He is considered a polymath, with the ego to match, boasting several areas of expertise from botany to medicine to chemistry. Working for him is almost akin to masochism... but it does look very good on one's resume.
|
Synnøve Alströmer Sol City, Faeborne, Female
Appearance |
|
Description | Personality | Much to the chagrin of her two mentors, professor Vasilievich, Synnøve is a student astronomer and an average one at that... despite this, she has made considerable waves in the astronomical world. Synnøve's most recent proposal that the world is not flat was met with incredulity and wide criticism. Not at all deterred by her detractors or a lack of funding to prove her theory, she engaged in thorough research, which involved putting together several kites and using them to glide off the peaks of Dragon's Cradle, propelled upwards by thermal updrafts. Using this method, she was able to visually see the curvature of the horizon, proving her theory... before she promptly fell out of the sky. She is still recovering in the infirmary of the Mages Guild.
| Considered to be an average student with the attention span of a goldfish, Synnøve is nonetheless considered an expert in her field, that being "Theoretical Arcanum", by which the Formulae Arcanum-- magic-- is used to explain the world as we know it, create new spells, understand how magic works, and how that relates to the worlds beyond our own, such as the heavens of which she is so fond. Other than this, Synnøve is best known for being outgoing, incredibly friendly, deeply reckless, and intelligent to a fault.

Moonglade
Maylin Nimia, Princess of Eclipse City Moonglade, Moon Elf, Female Appearance |
|
Description | Personality | Princess of Eclipse City, Maylin rules over Moonglade, teaching and guiding her people and all that call the region home. After her father's passing, she took the seat of power, choosing to continue her fathers agreement and ruling under the crown. She has been very vocal about change and progress, and her allegiance has been brought into question. | Maylin is a very strong, brave and independent woman. She loves her people, her land and is tired of watching them suffer. She is very vocal about her stance on the current crown. While being a great politician, she is also a master swordswoman, adept in combat. |
Eclipse City Royal Family
Constanza Nimia, Duchess of Moonglade
Eclipse City, Moon Elf, Female
Appearance |
|
Description | Personality | Younger half-sister of Princess Maylin, Duchess Constanza is a force to be reckoned with. She far preferred the studies of blade and combat to that of statecraft and etiquette, and despite the best efforts of her parents and advisors, has been something of a hellion. While considerably younger than her elder sibling, something she is often chastised for when found swinging from the chandelier, Constanza is nonetheless a beloved member of Moonglade royalty. While she is not being officially courted, it is rumored that she her pick of suitors from across Charon, though she seems to be in no hurry to settle down.
| Outspoken and brash, Constanza is not one to let anyone push her around. Since the passing of their father some years ago, Constanza has been what her governess has fondly called 'unwieldy'. She frequently challenges individuals to duels of honor (and has been on a winning streak for the past twenty-odd years); she has been known to race horses with the common folk, and; she has been known to insult dignitaries unprompted, something that has led to sanctions against Moonglade in the past. Duchess Constanza has no current plans to apologize.
|
Eclipse City, Moon Elf, Male
Appearance |
|
Description | Personality | The son of Maylin's Uncle, Bastian has multiple sets of arms and is known to be an effective spell-caster, utilizing his extra limbs to weave complex spells simultaneously. Princess Maylin created the Magus title for her beloved cousin, who has had little else to do but care for his ailing father, and found himself languishing. It is not known how he came by his extra arms, a fact that he and the royal family are especially tight-lipped about, but it is known that before he went to Sol City in his youth, he only had two arms. He has been known to explore fringe religions, and has a high regard of Mother Moon.
| A man of many anxieties, Bastien would prefer peace over war. Unfortunately, his specific talent for dark and destructive magic takes him away from his books and his studies... and his social life. There are rumors that the young Magus has a paramour in Sol City, but any investigation into this by outside sources has thus far been thoroughly quashed.
|
Dante Thiago, Baron of Stargazer Village
Stargazer Village, Moon Elf, Male
Appearance |
|
Description | Personality | Husband of Dulce Solarian, Baron Dante is a man who comes from a noble peerage that has roots within the Marrowvine lineage, a closer relation than the Nimia cousins he has been more closely affiliated with. There is some question as to why he remains within Moonglade as opposed to his closer relatives in the Pale City, but it is clear the man has no especial love for any place besides Moonglade. He was introduced to his spouse not long after her former betrothed was exiled. Also considered an 'inconvenience' by his family, though they were promised to one another, Dante and Dulce's marriage has been amicable, if not a happy one.
| Built with a quiet intensity, Dante is a watchful and careful man who embodies the adage of 'speak softly and carry a big stick'. Despite his slender elven frame, he is known to wield two-handed great axe with remarkable ease. His constituents consider him with ambivalence; could be better, but could be much, much worse. It helps that whatever promise Dante has given to his people or any one who requires his solemn word, that he always follows through.
|
Pale City, Moon Elf - Sun Elf, Genderfluid
Appearance |
|
Description | Personality | The unfortunate truth of Ser Vincere is that they are the product of a torrid affair between a Nimia Baron and a Solarian Marquesse. Being wholly un-liked by the Solarian's and causing a significant problem with the Marquesse's husband, a private exchange was conducted and young Vincere was remanded to their father's care, where they are raised by the Baron and his husband. Determined to make something of themself that was more than their bloodline, Vincere is now Knight of Galavance, doing their fathers proud and trying to make Moonglade a better place.
| Their name is synonymous with scandal, something that Vincere fiercely ignores. Having risen to the ranks of knighthood on their own merit, Ser Vincere is a steadfast individual who takes their vows as a Knight of Galavance very seriously. They do not hold others to their incredibly high standard, often giving those who would question the wisdom of this the answer "With people as with the weather, expect the worst and hope for the best. My fathers raised me well."
|
Dulce Solarian-Nimia, Scion of Stargazer Village
Stargazer Village, Sun Elf, Non-binary
Appearance |
|
Description | Personality | Formerly engaged to Eldacar, the exiled Solarian prince, Dulce was sent to Moonglade to reign over a small, unoccupied barony and be married off to a cousin of the Nimia and Marrowvine lines. Initially, their arranged marriage to Eldacar was meant to be a unifying factor for the two royal families; while a Solarian cousin through title granted to their mother by marriage, Dulce is actually the eldest of the Nimia family heirs, the eldest child of Princess Maylin's eldest Uncle. The marriage was engineered for peace. After having their world turned upside down by the exile of their betrothed, a time during which Dulce lost their left arm, the Solarian's found themselves scrambling for a better deal. They found that in Vicente, and Dulce considers herself deeply lucky, all things considered. Unofficially, the numerous ties the various royal families in Charon have led to rumors of Scion Dulce being a spymaster. Of course, these rumors have neither been confirmed nor denied... though there is much speculation as to how they lost their arm.
| Gregarious and light-hearted, Dulce is a well mannered and graceful individual. They frequently host dinner parties for dignitaries and visiting nobles from all over Charon; if you cannot get audience with Princess Maylin herself, then Scion Dulce's house is by far the next best thing. Their house boasts a beautiful library that is open to the public in Stargazer's so that people may come and read of the vast amount of knowledge that Dulce has collected over the years.

Meloku Leylani, Princess of Starlight City Crescent Isles, Human, Female Appearance |
|
Description | Personality | While the Crescent Isles currently reside under Moonglade, the island chain itself is ruled by the Leylani family. Motorio Leylani has passed leadership of the island over to his daughter, as he has no longer been able to lead, but he has not passed his inherited and ceremonial title of Daimyo. Princess Meloku settled into the role just fine, leading her people and looking out for their best interest. Recently rumors have come out that the head family desires to split from Moonglade and become their own region, however this has not been confirmed by the royal family. | Princess Meloku is beloved by her people and considered to be a step in the right direction for the islands future. She is kind, loving and gentle. However, some view her as naive and unable to do what needs to be done, leaning on her family name instead of her own merits. |
Saveriel Yalathanil-Wang
Moonglade, Sun Elf, Female Appearance |
|
Description | Personality | Born and raised in the Crescent Isles, Savariel has a deep love and fondness for Moonglade and her people. She serves as the Chief of Customs of Moonglade, a title inherited from her late wife over a century ago. Her main offices reside in Eclipse City, though she has been known to make surprise inspections from time to time in other locales throughout Moonglade to ensure her strict procedures are being followed. Her skin, lined with her considerable age, is the pale-gold of her Sun Elf heritage, and prefers to wear her silver hair in an officious bun. Her style of clothing most resembles where she grew up, wearing modestly crafted hanbok while she takes on the world in her custom-made wheelchair.
| Savariel is a charming, opinionated elderly woman who thoroughly enjoys the arts. Despite her advanced years, she remains fastidious, bright and full of vivacious spirit, always quick with a joke and surprisingly bawdy if within the right company. She is unfalteringly polite and sweet as anyone's beloved grandmother, frequently offering little bonbons to anyone her junior (which is to say, nearly everyone). Known as a moderate who leans a little towards Mooglade's independence more so than the Crown would like, Savariel is deeply proud of her land and her job, and does not suffer people who would interfere with it.

Yokai Monokailiki
Crescent Isles, Oni, Agender
Appearance |
|
Description | Personality | Leader of the Teishin Shudan, Monokailiki (a name that is more of a title than identifier, meaning 'One Who Nourishes the Eyes of Gods [in reference to stars]') is an old inhabitant of the land. He has been leader of the Teishin Shudan, the primary defense force in the Crescent Isles themselves, for hundreds of years, recruited by the last ruler of Starlight City. He stands over 9 feet tall and has been known, on occasion, to devour enemies, though he has been asked to cut back on this for the sake of optics.
| Monokailiki speaks with an old cadence, refering to himself as 'This One' as opposed to "I" or "Me" and uses words that many senior elves would consider archaic, even by their standards. While intimidating, Monokailiki is also known for his gentle side and is a well known calligrapher. He is known as a ruthless warrior, an unbowed leader... and a very good listener, especially to those under the banner of his leadership. His wise council has been admired for centuries.

Merek Delgado, Proprietor of The Purple Lantern
Moonglade, Moon Elf, Non-Binary
Appearance
|
|
Description | Personality | The owner and proprietor of The Purple Lantern Tavern and Inn, Marek is a mysterious, strange individual who looks as though they would be more at home in the midst of conducting a ritual sacrifice than as an innkeeper. Surprising perhaps no one, they run the inn and tavern almost entirely themself, and can be found behind the counter round the clock. It is unknown as to whether or not they sleep.
| Despite their peculiar style of dress and their intimidating way of speaking wherein everything sounds like a threat, Merek is known to provide exemplary service, impeccable high-end meals, and sage advise to those deep in their cups who are in need of it. Known by locals for their compassion to those in need, The Purple Lantern is a staple for any who need a place to rest during their visit to the area.
|
Shou Huoziang Crescent Isles, Half-Goliath, Male Appearance |
|
Description | Personality | Huoziang, family name Shou, is the founder of the three main styles of martial arts of the Crescent Isles: Aita-Shou, Tojita-Shou, Yuruita-Shou. The Shou family were original inhabitants of the Crescent Isles, and Huoziang the second eldest son. Though the reason is lost to time, he left home to wander the Crescent Isles in a journey of self-discovery, that made the Shou arts what they are today.
| Much of who Huoziang was has become the stuff of legend. Stories say that he was an affable man who was creative and easily bored. He travelled each island in the Crescent Isles, and knew how to navigate each, without a map. He was known to be frank and a little mischevious, traits that he tended to look for in potential students.
|
Niú Mówáng Crescent Isles, Minotaur, Male Appearance |
|
Description | Personality | Current grandmaster of Yuruita-Shou. His dojo is located in Starlight City, but he himself is rarely there. He was adopted by the Shou family as a youth after getting into an impromptu street fight with a family member of roughly the same age. He has been spotted within the Bamboo Forest, and making frequent journeys between the Isles and the mainland, travelling as far up the coast as the Marsh Flats, ostensibly to find potential students for his school and to continue the never ending journey of self discovery.
| Niú has a personality that is not unlike the flow of water; constant, refreshing, and can shift without warning from gentle brook to unrelenting rapids. He is a firm but forgiving instructor, allowing for mistakes to become important lessons, though he is not especially known for holding back. Niú is a laidback man who is full of mirth, though his dry, softspoken delivery tends to confuse people who are not used to his candor.

An herbalist and apprentice physician herself, she used what she had learned during her study and from her mentor's books to create a medicine that helped to cure the sick. It is from her quick thinking that saved many lives, and for this, she was nominated to the Council.
| Kōnane is determined and driven, a proud young woman with a desire to help that runs as deep as the ocean itself. She is fiercely loyal to the island of Keone’ō’io, and does not suffer any talk from those in more developed areas that would disparage her rural community.

Rizalino Abalahin, Minister of Justice
Crescent Isles, Half-Orc, Male

|
Description | Personality | Rizalino was born on the Crescent Isles on the island of Matalahambre. The son of immigrants, his parents had fled the Marsh Flats, accused of a brutal crime they did not commit with no way to fight the punishment. Growing up as the child of fugitives had a profound effect on how he viewed the world and developed a deep interest in law. When the Golden Army found his parents at last, he acted as their legal representative and successfully defended them to the High Court.

Ka’aukai, Minister of Coasts
Crescent Isles, Taniwa, Agender
Appearance |
|
Description | Personality | Known as a 'taniwa', or water spirit, Ka’aukai was nominated unanimously from unrepresented peoples all over the coast, especially in the more remote areas. They have been on the council for nearly a century. Reasons for their nomination include the ridding of pirates and poachers, cleaning up polluted areas, the preservation of animal life, and attending those who have been lost to shipwreck. Ka’aukai is considered a guardian, and holds much respect across the Crescent Isles.
| Ka’aukai does not speak and does not enjoy interacting with others, but they do attend their duties as an elected representative with diligence and thoughtfulness. Unfortunately, they are not without their enemies; those who do not care for the environment and see Ka’aukai as a roadblock to progress have made numerous attempts on their life over the years. None have come close to succeeding.
|

Appearance |
|
Description | Personality | Guoqiang is a master painter from Hongli, considered to be one of the greats of our time. He has painted murals for the High King in Sol City, the Sultan in Zeinav, and overseen the building of many temples and palaces. However, it is his candor that secured his nomination to the council. Known for being blunt to a fault, his constituents enjoy that Guoqiang is entirely unafraid of informing someone the are out of line. A reason he will not be invited back to Sol City any time soon.

Matsushita Kazane, Minister of the Tempest
Crescent Isles, Astralblood, Female
Appearance |
|
Description | Personality | Kazane calls one island home, but considers herself a nomad. Given to a Temple of Avasha in the high mountains of Maiagarutake as a foundling, they became a studious monk, dedicated to serving the goddess of the air. With the more recent news that the gods are long deceased, she suffered a crisis of faith. Thinking her whole life's work a failure, she left the temple and sought out new purpose. It was during the tsunami's that plagued the Isles the past few months that Kazane's magic and selfless-bravery saved countless lives. And so, she found her faith again; within herself.
| A powerful sorcerer, Kazane is a force to be reckoned with. Considered a sorcerer of the storms, she was bestowed the title of Tempest, a term to refer to emergency response situations should the tsunami's and quakes cause havoc again. She is light hearted, compassionate, and deeply generous. Her hard work and belief in her abilities has led to her taking on disciples of her own, to continue the work of rescue and the consultation of storms.

Marsh Flats The Big Leader, Mayor of Lilicors Marsh Flats, Goblin-Ogre, Male Appearance |
|
Description | Personality | The Big Leader is a unique leader, consisting of a goblin-ogre team. The goblin, known as The Leader, was one of the original people to unite Lilicors and established a settlement out in the swamp. He is a fast talker and a genius, advocating for the tribes of the swamps to unite. He is accompanied by Big, a massive ogre that acts as The Leaders bodyguard and muscle. The people love this duo, prideful of their growing village. | The Leader is a quick witted man with a big grin and a lovable personality. He loves the swamps and bogs and wants something better for those who call them home. He is a generous man, caring for the everyday civilians. Big is a less educated man and really does nothing, just standing there to protect their brother. |
Marv, Owner of the Fighting Pits
Marsh Flats, Beastkin, Male
Appearance
|
|
Description | Personality | Having lived in the Marsh Flats his whole life, Marv was born into the family business, inheriting it from his late father, Marvanthony. The Fighting Pits have been passed down throughout countless generations of Marv's, becoming a name the community can rely on to place illicit bets or to get the snot beat out of them for a cut. He has two lovely daughters, Marvadene and Marvelle, who are the apples of his eye. They are just as ambitious as their father and cannot wait to carry on the family legacy.
| Marv is a jovial man, with a mind capable of doing quick math and a body that has seen it's share of scraps. He isn't one to hesitate when crossed, but if you remain on his good side and don't bring around any annoying authorities, you will be treated far better than in most of the other fighting pits in Charon. Fighting Pits are a cultural touchstone of the Marsh Flats, after all, as are these two rules: If you are good to Marv, he is good to you; and, never bet against the house.

King's Valley Braun Bright Hoof King's Valley, Centaur, Male Appearance |
|
Description | Personality | Braun has recently been chosen by many of the horse lords to become their leader. Over the last few years the political landscape has started to push towards them, forcing the tribes to unite. While they are still figuring things out, Braun has done his best to unite them and is making great progress. While not a scholar or great speaker, he is passionate and skilled on the field of combat. | Braun is a mighty warrior who lived and battled all through out King's Valley. He has earned his reputation and is beloved by his people. He deeply cares about the region and would give up his life to protect it. |
Hashké Apsaroke
King's Valley, Human-Werecrow, Male Appearance |
|
Description | Personality | Though his bloodline is human, Hashké's appearance is more bestial in nature. This is due to his position as the leader of the People of the Crow - accepting the curse of the werebeast has shifted his appearance until it is more avian in nature, a reflection of his capricious and often violent nature. His tribe's decline in strength is a source of frustration for him, though he is far too stubborn to seek help, believing himself to be enough to fix what is broken. He often gives into his bestial nature, allowing his anger and hunger to seep through the cracks when speaking with others. Despite his often mind-numbing rage, Hashké is determined to bring strength to his people once more, no matter what the cost. | Before his ascension to leader of the Crows, Hashké was a scavenger. His keen eye for valuables and food made him an ideal leader in the eyes of his people - as such, when their previous leader passed away, he was one of those selected to undergo the trials of his people. Of the group of elite candidates he was part of, he was the only one strong enough to survive. A quiet, tenacious demeanor was twisted and morphed into a quiet anger and indignity, and a desire to bring back the greatness of his people. Hashké holds himself like a man put together, believing himself blessed with the wisdom of the crows, and understanding that his decisions are justified. But underneath that surface simmers boiling anger and sharp talons, just waiting for the opportunity to be unleashed. |
Kaya Stormsong King's Valley, Half-Elf, Female Appearance |
|
Description | Personality | The leader of the People of the Crab is a practical woman, a consequence of her upbringing. Her elven heritage often marks her as an outsider of the waterfront-dwelling people of the Valley, but make no mistake. Her down-to-earth roots and her work ethic have helped the People of the Crab prosper within their own rights. Her selection as the next leader of the Clan was once a point of great contention, being that she was born out of wedlock between the previous matriarch and a traveling elven storm mage. But she has long since proven herself, and earned the respect of her people. Though she does not particularly have the ambition to expand her territory, she will take good care of what is hers. | Kaya's levelheaded personality makes her an easy person to interact with. She works almost with desperation to prove herself and provide for her people. She sees no need for extraneous things, living a rather modest lifestyle, preferring to have only what is necessary while ensuring that no one in her tribe goes hungry or without shelter. Kaya will not allow herself to be disrespected by others, possessing an odd mix of pridefulness and humbleness. She has an unusually high aptitude for sensing the coming storms, whether that be the salt in the air or the unease in the wind - and when trouble arises, Kaya is exactly the kind of person you want to have at your side. |
Vaddar Kattituyok King's Valley, Minotaur, Male Appearance | |
Description | Personality | Storytelling is a highly important ritual to the Peoples of the Valley. Storytellers are valued members of the community, identified by their lack of weapon - and there is none with a deeper voice and a more sonorous melody than Vaddar Kattituyok. He is not affiliated with any tribes, nor does he claim any political stance. Vaddar is frequently found in any tavern or inn along the populated areas of King's Valley, or camping in the woods. He will gladly share a story with any guest around his campfire, for the price of a story in turn, added to his collection. Because of the nature of his profession, Vaddar is generally respected by most tribes of the Valley, who welcome him within their grounds if it means getting to share a pipe and tales of the past. | Vaddar fashions himself a pacifist, though a long road of blood and battle paved the way for this to happen. Once a vicious warrior and raider, Vaddar plundered villages and settlements alike to steal their valuables - and he was good at what he did. Whatever made him give up such a life is unclear; though Vaddar carries himself with the mournful sorrow of someone who regrets what he did. It is for this reason that he refuses to carry a weapon. An eidetic memory may mean he'll never be able to erase the horrors of his past. But he'll be certain to fill his mind with beautiful things, too. |
Sanuye King's Valley, Human, Female Appearance | |
Description | Personality | Sanuye has honed her body and her mind for years in preparation for taking over as the leader of the Yupa People. She is a relatively new leader, having earned her position via the Shaman's appointment, as per her tribe's customs; though this was no surprise to her, as she is a born leader, and has trained her entire life with the belief that she would one day take up the mantle for her tribe. Though she is amicable with the other Horse Lord tribes, they do not embody Ginma's principles in the way that the Yupa tribe believes they ought to, and Sanuye will enforce his divine will. No matter what bridge she has to burn. | People often mistake the curve of Sanuye's mask for a smile; it is perhaps an indicator of her nature. Sanuye walks amongst the world with a pleasant, almost detached attitude. She understands the wholeness of the earth and her part in it, and that everything is within the boundaries of her god's will. It often makes her appear as if she does not care for human life when it is quite the opposite. All life is sacred to her, and sometimes sacrifices have to be made to return that power to the earth. And she will gladly do so, with a permanent smile etched on her face.
|
Wisewoman Poloma King's Valley, Human, Female Appearance |
|
Description | Personality | The Shaman of the Yupa Tribe is a miser who has cast away her previous life to assume the role of mask holder. Besides the clan leader, the Shaman is the most important member of the Yupa Tribe. As such, Wisewoman Poloma is as revered as she is to be avoided. People see the clinking of her mask as she makes her way through the clan's encampment as a sad omen, knowing the burdens she has to carry, and that they will inevitably one day end up amongst her collection. Despite the unfortunate and holy nature of her position, she is always open to conversing and sharing her wisdom with those who take the time to seek it. | It takes a person with a strong constitution to do what Wisewoman Poloma may be considered of moderate temper and a peacemaker, but she is far from soft. Stern when need be and possessing wisdom from all that she remembers. She alone bears the pain of all their clan has lost in the recent decades so that others do not have to grieve and mourn. Even the tribe leader recognizes the important role that Wisewoman Poloma plays in their way of life. Indeed, the shaman has been around for as long as most folks can remember... and she has seen much. And yet, she continues on with her duty day in and day out, as is the way of life. Few speak with her except in times of misery, but she is always open to conversation. |
Shtiya of the Roving Bulls King's Valley, Astralblood, Male Appearance |
|
Description | Personality | One of the leaders in the Tiwok Tribe. His origins, like many in his tribe, his origins are rather unfortunate. A member of the Roving Bulls, an old family who once roamed the hills of the Valley in tandem with the animals they were named for. A family said to possess Ginma's blessing... up until the point they were slaughtered by raiders in an unfortunate battle, and Shtiya was left alone. Now, with a disdain for the gods and divine providence, Shtiya leads his new family - the Tiwok - with a blazing fury and a desire to prevent tragedy from ever befalling his home again. He desires peace, no matter what he has to do to obtain it. | Stubborn to a fault. Once he sets his mind to something, there is little that can change Shtiya's mind. Others, in the past, have called him pigheaded. Once upon a time, he perhaps was - with an ambition and strength of will that was unparalleled to his peers. Now he is older, embittered after the end of his old family. He seeks to preserve his clan's peace, no matter what war might be waged to attain it. In particular, he hates the gods and will spit curses at them given the opportunity. Perhaps one day his anger will be quelled, but it will not be anytime soon. |
Xangai Moali King's Valley, Human, Male Appearance |
|
Description | Personality | The leader of the Lauk Peoples. He is the youngest child of six, and was not ever expected to head the tribe. But his siblings all set out throughout the world to explore all that it had to offer, and when their mother passed away, Xangai took up the mantle. He takes good care of his people, and has a special talent for keeping the peace. His people are rarely warriors, and neither is he; other horse tribes often argue this makes him a weak leader, but there is unseen strength in being a mediator. | A jovial and friendly man, possessing the near-limitless energy and wanderlust characteristic of his tribe. He possesses a curiosity for the world beyond, and understands that his part in it is small. But he is always looking to expand his knowledge and life experiences. He leads his people across the lands, always looking while not quite knowing what they seek. Though he is not a fighter, he is a skilled musician and has a way with animals. |
Munokhoi
King's Valley, Human, Nonbinary Appearance |
|
Description | Personality | As the leader of the Jidatsa Tribe, Munokhoi has a strong sense of survival and perseverance. They are adept at martial arts, and especially skilled in the ways of fishing - though, to their chagrin, they never have quite seemed to get the hang of braiding. They were the tribal leader who decided to take up smuggling as a way of life, and although their people are quite skilled at it, there are many among the ranks of the Jitadsa who resent them for their decisions. This has led to turmoil in their clan as they forge a new path in a changing world. | On the surface, a mild and respectful person. But Munokhoi is an expert at fishing, trapping, and stealth, and always seeks to perfect their craft, pushing their people to new heights. They are rather inventive, too; some might consider them too forward-thinking at times, but Munokhoi pays no mind to those who are too stubborn to yield to change. They have cast out dissenters with an uncaring efficiency and pushed their people to newer heights. They invented novel ways of smuggling by sewing items into the hem of their robes, they bartered and haggled and created a system for the good of their people. And they refuse to allow themselves to be disrespected. |
Oyuun
King's Valley, Human, Nonbinary Appearance |
|
Description | Personality | An herb monger of the Jidatsa tribe; Oyuun would likely be considered a druid by modern Charonian standards. They have a deep understanding of the earth and the plants that are grown within it. They are currently under the apprenticeship of the head herb monger, their mother. Oyuun holds a deep loyalty for Monokhoi and, on occasion... may be persuaded to break their vows to only heal through medicine, and dissenters may find themselves passing in the middle of the night from an unknown sickness. | Bright, inquisitive, and naive. Oyuun can read the wind and the currents and point out which plants are poisonous and which are safe to eat in the blink of an eye, but they have no idea how to read people. Munokhoi was their childhood friend, and as such, they hold a deep loyalty and respect for their leader. They are still an ardent worshipper of Lunala. |
Jungsai
King's Valley, Human, Male Appearance |
|
Description | Personality | Jungsai is an exile of the Jidatsa clan - cast away not long after Munokhoi was selected as leader. He was rather outspoken about his distaste for their status as smugglers, believing that they did not need to stoop to crime and find a way to survive. Though he was rather outspoken and earnest in his beliefs, he one night was stricken with a mysterious 'illness' - one that Oyuun could not diagnose, and one that he was not expected to survive. When he awoke, he was blinded in one eye from the severity of the poison, and Munokhoi had asserted that Ginma had struck him down for his dissent. He was promptly exiled, his hair cut off, and left to wander the valley. | One might think that his banishment made Jungsai embittered, but it has only strengthened his ideals for unity and peace. Jungsai trains, seeking new methods of combat and training in horse riding and war, so that he may one day return to his people and challenge Munokhoi for their title. He is disciplined, and a firm believer in the Jidatsa's roots. He is almost unnaturally serious to a degree, pursuing his goal with a single-minded intensity. |
Yanisin of the Braddock King's Valley, Human, Male Appearance |
|
Description | Personality | The current leader of tribe Braddock, having inherited the title from his own father. He is a skilled horse rider and marksman, and not much of a thinker as he is a warrior. He knows the importance of a leader having smarts and wisdom, but these traits are lost on him. What Yanisin lacks in smarts he makes up for in pride. Pride in his people, his bloodline, and himself. As leader, he holds onto a rather lofty goal; uniting the horse tribes and creating a unified King’s Valley once more so that their power may be respected. Once this is complete, he seeks to reclaim and rebuild Braddock Castle for his people. In addition to being the tribal leader, he is also the one in charge of training young warriors in his clan.
| A rather forceful man for all his talk of peace and unity. He has big aspirations and is one of the few people who still cling to the antiquated beliefs that blood begets one’s own merits. He has a vehement disdain for the Knights of Duros, whom he sees as guard dogs sent by the king to keep the wilds under the thumb of the new royals. Yanisin also dislikes the Red Riders, believing them to be obstacles to his goals, and that hatred often puts him at odds with his desire for peace, though is sense of politics is not much more nuanced than “peace can be achieved even through force so long as the one yielding the power is strong enough to bear it” - and he believes that he is more than strong enough for the task.
|
At'Eed of the Braddock King's Valley, Human, Female Appearance |
|
Description | Personality | Yanisin’s wife is a skilled marksman and a feared hunter. She was not born to the Braddock Tribe - rather, she spent her life as a wanderer with no clan to call her own. Yanisin met her at an archery competition and fell in love with her, asking her to be his bride. She agreed on the condition that he bring her the head of the most ferocious beast in the Kingswood, claiming that she would only agree to a union with the strongest warrior in all of the Valley. He did just that - and they were married a year later. Many of the Braddock people were slow to warm up to an outsider, but she brought a different kind of prowess and wisdom that they quickly came to respect.
| Nowadays, many regard At’Eed as the unofficial leader of the Braddock. She has no interest in matronly duties or crafts, and has little mind for socializing - but her firm will and stubborn personality make her a fine leader. When she wants something done, it will get done, whether by her hand or someone else’s. Due to her independent nature, she is incredibly self-reliant, and settling down has not changed that. You’ll never find her without her crossbow, as if she expects to be ambushed any moment, and gods help anyone who accidentally sneaks up on her. She commands loyalty through fear, and that works just fine for her.

Zeinav Desert Sultan Adatian Jadda Ziev Zeinav Desert, Human, Male Appearance |
|
Description | Personality | Adatian has ruled the desert city for most of his life, obtaining the seat of power at a young age. Despite now being an older man, he is highly respected by those who call him their leader. He is an experienced warrior and elegant speaker, making him deadly both on the battlefield and in the courts. While he himself has been the perfect leader, he currently has no children or heirs, and questions of who leads after him have started to run amok through the lower nobles. | Stern, stoic and resilient, Adatian has lead the region for several years and has learned a few things. He knows when to speak, and when to keep quiet, although he has earned such a reputation that most people actually care about what he has to say now. In addition to being brace and honorable, he is also kind and respectful, understanding the need for calmer heads. |
Samair Ziev, Head of the Zeinav Corps
Zeinav Desert, Human, Male Appearance |
|
Description | Personality | Samair's position as head of the Zeinav Corps has designated him among the nobles as the current heir to the throne till his brother has children and even in very particular circles is considered the heir even if the current king declares someone else. This has left him in a precarious position in regards to personal ambition and his devotion and loyalty to his brother. | Samair Ziev exemplifies the concepts of long term thinking and loyalty to a cause. He has modernized both the equipment and the tactics of the Zeinav Corp while establishing a flexible and adaptable military structure that is capable of improvisation and adjusting to a wide variety of situations with rapid and well thought out responses. He is a man who acknowledges his approaching mortality and seeks to instill a culture and way of thinking that is beyond any individual or societal institution to corrupt. |
Madam Mohurk, the Hospitality Mogul
Zeinav Desert, Human, Female
Appearance |
|
Description | Personality | Madame Mohurk, a human woman in her early forties, has gone the long road of rags to riches in Zeinav City over the course of her storied life; if you can take it at it's face value, of course. She is the owner of most, if not all the currently operating taverns, gambling halls, inns and gin joints in Zeinav City.
