**Character App** Name: Henna Race: Trollkin Gender: Female Age: 25 Description: Henna is a young Trollkin witch, standing at 175cm in height. Her body is thin with sinewy limbs and olive skin. She has black, unkempt shoulder length hair and the typical yellow eyes of her people. She is usually dressed in a ragged sack-cloth tunic with a simple leather belt tied at the waist. Henna was born in a faraway land and was introduced to witchcraft at an early age by her late shaman father. Her village was raided and ruined during her thirteenth year in life, leaving the young girl without a home and family. She wandered aimlessly through the world for many years as a vagabond, trying to earn a living however she could. Being born a Trollkin, she was discriminated by many of the people she came across and often had to sleep outdoors in the cold night, her hunger burning in her belly. Then, one day, she came upon a tower. A wizard lived there, who agreed to let her stay as his servant. She spent two years in the service of the wizard, earning her keep with hard work. The wizard had a magnificent object in his possession; a scrying glass of old. With it, he could watch distant people and places from the safety of his tower. To use it, all one had to know was the secret magic words. Henna became obsessed with the glass, and her father had taught her the words required to glimpse into the mystic shrouds of the artifact. One day, she asked the wizard if she could borrow it, only for a minute. The man became furious with her, scolding her for her curiosity and forbade her from ever setting foot in the scrying chamber again. That same night, in desperation, Henna murdered the wizard with a kitchen knife and stole the glass. She fled the tower, and came at last to the great city of Areapolis. There she has remained since, housed in a cheap brothel in one of the slums. **Race App** Name: Trollkin Description: The Trollkin are natives of the deep forests of the east. Rumor is that they came to be in ancient times when an evil sorceress from a long-dead tribe cursed a rival tribe with trollish features. They resemble humans, but have long pointed ears, yellow eyes, sharp teeth and nails and a tail. They are hairier than humans and have olive skin, as well as the yellow eyes of the trolls. Trollkin are often mistaken for half-breeds or even full-blooded trolls, resulting in a wide discrimination from many races. They are rumored to be filthy, disease-ridden and aggressive, which of course is true in some cases but not in most. **Organization App** ![enter image description here](http://i.imgur.com/Oae5376.png "enter image title here") Name: The Grey Guild Description: The Grey Guild is the caretaker of everything that others find demeaning or disgusting in Areapolis. It sees to the maintenance of graveyards, cleans the gutters, keeps the sewers free from alligators and assists in all sorts of work where simple labor is required. The guild consists of the Grey Council, which leads the organization and handles administration and public relations; the overseers, which govern the workforce; the agents, which do all the advanced labor; and the undead laborers which provide the lion’s share of the workforce. It is essentially an undead taskforce that helps keep the city clear of filth, for a very cheap price. The guild uses the funds it collects from its services to buy bodies. People can, if short on money, come to the Grey Guild to sell their body. They get a big purse of coin right away, and as soon as they die the guild comes to collect what’s theirs. The body is then prepared, preserved, animated and sent to the next scheduled job. The undead are obviously clothed, often in ragged robes and mummifying bandages, when performing their jobs throughout the city, as not to upset or disgust people.

### Character App **Name:** Zeetah **Race:** Ampharian **Gender:** Androgynous **Age:** 15 **Description:** Zeetah is a young Ampharian acrobat originating from the Froggila tribe who lives in a forgotten covered alleyway near a cracked canal wall that constantly leaks, providing a nice, comfortable, moist (if moldy) environment. He dresses as a human male, has light green skin with blue-and-black tree frog-like stripes on his back, long legs with large webbed feet, and big, bulging, red-orange eyes. Zeetah has lived in Areapolis his entire life, but was kidnapped when he was very young, before he had learned the culture of the Froggila tribe. His kidnappers, a foreign circus who had never seen Ampharians before and did not know how common they were in the city, dressed him as a human boy and trained him as an acrobat in another part of the expansive city. Every day, Zeetah longed to return to his parents, and one day, during a particularly busy day at the circus, he sneaked away, hidden in a small crowd of other Froggila. He searched for his parents by asking the Froggila until he learned that they had gone far away to search for him, assuming his kidnappers had taken him to some faraway country. When Zeetah realized that he could never fit in with the Froggila community, he left to live on his own, using his acrobatics to earn a living performing and stealing when there was no audience. ### Race App **Name:** Ampharian **Description:** A race of amphibian-like people with appearances ranging from that of frogs to salamanders. Because of their slimy skin and their need to remain moist, they dwell in the sewers, canals, and rivers of Areapolis and are generally rejected by the other residents of the city. The majority of Ampharians have long, webbed fingers and toes, broad mouths, and various shades of green skin, though some (the salamander-like) have primarily black skin with bright accents of various colors. Biologically, Ampharians are androgynous, each one producing both eggs and fertilization, though they can only fertilize eggs of a different DNA makeup. Due to this androgynous nature, Ampharians are encouraged to consistently dress and act in a way that fits in with neighboring races, whether it is stereotypical male/female attire or something inbetween does not matter, as long as these races can comfortably identify what gender they intend to portray. The Ampharians need to study their neighboring communities to learn what their personal favorite style of dress would be and what gender that style fits into for that community. This has led to problems and confusion in the past, especially since within each tribe there is no gender-based dress, most members choosing only to dress for the weather and many members choosing instead to remain unclothed while in their homes. The Ampharian race is split among several tribes based upon appearance, separated based on what amphibian they most resemble (eg. frog, toad, salamander, etc.). In general, the Ampharians are a highly curious and carefree race, but they tend to be uneasy when interacting with other tribes because it seems the problem of prejudice based on appearance is not only a human problem. In spite of this artificial separation, the Ampharian are all one race and are biologically all the same. ### Organization App **Name:** The Froggila Tribe **Description:** The tribe of Ampharians with the appearance of frogs. The most outgoing of the Ampharian tribes, the Froggila tribe spends most of their time in marketplaces, returning to the canals and rivers infrequently to restore their moistness. In spite of their outgoingness toward other races, they are deeply prejudiced of Ampharians from other tribes and will rarely interact with or even trust them, and they are frequently seen going far out of their way to avoid non-Friggila Ampharians. The Froggila prefer the pronoun "xe/xer" but are mostly tolerant of "he/him", as they are frequently called by other races.

Character App **Name:** Talaran Greywulf **Race:** Human/Dunenmer **Gender:** Female **Age:** 29 **Description:** Hailing from the northern, ice covered lands of Dunenmer, Talaran is a hearty warrior, standing at a towering 5'9'' and is of a fairly muscular build, the body of a true warrior woman honed upon the fields of battle. She has hair as white as the snow of the Dunenmer Mountains, long and flowing down her back with a few strands kept in a tight braid and her eyes are as blue and as cold as the ice that covers the old Lake Hilonota and fierce as a Gray Wolf, hence the family name. Clad from head to toe in heavy iron armor and a pelt made from the fur of an elk, she is always seen with her greatsword slung bravely over her shoulders as she tarries through the town, either in search of work or a good drink and bit of song at the tavern, not to mention enjoying the company of a few fair lasses such as the lovely tavern wench.

Character App
Name: Tex Errant. Race: Enchanted cat-form familiar/Magic Miscellanea. Gender: Male. Age: 21 Description: Tex was for most of his life the familiar of the great wizard Tessegnach. Tessegnach, despite his fame and prowess, much preferred a life of seclusion and never ventured far from his tower, where Tex was his sole companion. As he grew so old that even his mighty sorcery was unable to sustain his presence in the land of the living for much longer, he desperately sought an apprentice upon which he could impart his secrets and legacy. However, in his many decades of isolation, Tessegnach had grown quite paranoid of outsiders. Instead, an unusual solution came to mind. Tessegnach was a master of alterative magic. The surreal environs, flora and fauna found around his tower remain today a testament to the potency of his craft. He ultimately decided that Tex, his faithful servant, would inherit all that was his. However, while Tex was undoubtedly magically gifted, in the form of a four legged cat, he would not be able to serve as Tessegnach's successor so well. So the somewhat mad Tessegnach saw to it that Tex would be imbued with a more suitable form. The experiment was a success. From then on Tex has resembled a humanoid with feline features. He is cloaked from head to toe with black fur with a white underbelly. Tex has maintained his tail and a head much resembling that of a cat's. He is of a lithe frame and stands at about 5'5". His eyes are a faintly glowing lemon quartz hue. Tex proved to be an apt, eager pupil. While in his former life he was more than capable of conjuring a spell or two, his new form facilitated the gestures and other rituals used to invoke more advanced magic. While certainly not as skilled as his master, Tex himself grew to be quite adept at the craft. Soon enough, the inevitable occurred, and Tessegnach at last passed away. The tower and all of its contents now belonged to Tex, and still does today. However, his feline nature prohibits him from living the isolated life of his predecessor. With curiosity and wanderlust gnawing at him always, he periodically embarks on trips from his tower to where ever his fascination pulls him. In his studying he came across many mentions of the vast city of "Areapolis." Drawn by tales of its grandeur, it is here that he today seeks whatever opportunities and adventures await. While he still holds the utmost respect for his master, he tends to downplay his connection to the legendary man, eager for an opportunity to prove himself on his own individual merits. However, one thing Tessegnach never got around to teaching Tex in his youth was restraint. His susceptibility to whim also applies to his (mis)usage of his magic. While he knows better than to do anything particularly extreme, he is particularly fond of pranks and other mischief. He also has a great deal of difficulty making heads or tails of rules, laws and other obligations, and often gets in hot water for not paying them much mind. Apparel: He wears a mostly dark blue outfit consisting of a signature broad-rimmed, pointed wizard hat, a coat with a high collar, an undershirt, knickerbockers and pointed boots with tips that curl ever so slightly upwards. He carries with him at all times his master's staff, which often has a small bag tied to its head.
Race App
Name: Magic Miscellanea. Description: Tex does not belong to a race as such, but more a particular category of entity. Magic Miscellanea are creatures born of experimentation and tampering utilizing arcane energies. There is thus no particular continuity between them, save for their common origin. In a world full of wizards and other magic users, there are bound to be many aberrations running about, some more readily integrated into society than others. They are often scorned or distrusted in less accepting parts of the world. It's a not unearned reputation, given the destructive habits of the majority of Magic Miscellanea. The more peaceable examples tend to be cosmopolitans, generally never allowing themselves to get anchored to any one place or identity.

*Organisation App* Name: The Blessed of Trazyn Almost 130 years ago, a great meteorite struck the Earth in the southern lands of Alm'Zar. Across the world, prophets and mystics sensed a disturbance, and the followers of Trazyn claim that the lesser deities shook on their Earthly thrones. For within the falling star was a being, alien to this world, known only as Trazyn. Possessed of great magical power, it reached out into the minds of those nearby, the loyal guard of the Al'Nuk Empire, and asked for their aid. The guards that entered to investigate came out changed people, claiming to have found the only being worthy of their loyalty and unquestioning devotion. They were the First of Trazyn. The might of the Extraterrestrial God expanded rapidly, as it promised gifts of arcane power and equality to those that would reject their political leaders, and swore fealty to Him alone. And he delivered, mysterious crystals implanted into the body granting magical power to those born without arcane potential. Great armies marched in His name, conquering those who did not come under His rule by their own will through brute force. These were known as the Infinity Crusades, and it was said that the legions of zealots were an unending sea, swarming across the country, twisted by the magic implanted into their souls. However, the World is a big place. The Elves of Lysandor stood firm, proclaiming that Trazyn and the injection of His mysterious arcane power was an abomination. Great battles ensued, but to dislodge the Elves from their ancient forests was impossible. They allied with the remains of the Al'Nuk, as they pushed back, driving against the maddened armies, battling Eldritch powers, aiming to destroy Trazyn himself once and for all. What happened in these wars is the work of many legends. The Al'Nuk were completely wiped out, their cities and holds part of the reformed Infinite Empire. Trazyn halted his great Crusades, having formed a peace treaty with the Elves of Lysandor. The tribes that had once dwelled the plains of Alm'Zar were incorporated into the belief, living in the cities or traveling to far off countries as missionaries, aiming to convert more cities to the world's most feared religion. Today, the Blessed of Trazyn, centered in the Infinite Empire, have spread across the globe, their religion seen in many places as being abominable and terrifying. However, they preach the equality of all under Trazyn, from commoner to noble to king, and have demonstrated this in their own empire. In many cases, the lower classes have rebelled in the name of Trazyn, forming their own city-states far from the Infinite Empire, loyal to Trazyn. Beliefs of the Blessed of Trazyn: - Trazyn is the architect of the universe, the very first magical being. It was He who created the very existence of magic, and it is from this magic that all other beings are born. - All people are equal, for all intelligent beings are the same. To stand one above the other is blasphemy, and only Trazyn and his Prophets have any rights beyond those of normal men and women. This includes the equal division of magic beyond genetic heritage, granting arcane powers to all who wish to have them. - All of nature is owned by the sentient races, and it is theirs to do with as they will, provided they heed the words of Trazyn. - All belongings are equal, and all is to be shared among the entire population. There will be no rich, and there will be no poor, for all are equal in the eyes of Trazyn. *Character App* Name: Alice Nettlebrush, The Immortal Innocence. Race: Elf Gender: Female Age: 12 Personality: While in many ways Alice acts as a typical 12-year-old, she has certainly been changed by Trazyn. She often knows things she should not have known, and possesses a strange, sly wisdom. She often displays dual personalities, and memories that don't belong to her lifetime. She is generally kind and caring, although she is devoted to Trazyn, seeing her God as part of herself. Due to the crystal implanted into her skull, this might be accurate. History: Coming from the Nettlebrush family, a small family of elves who became a part of the Infinite Empire, Alice's parents opted to send their youngest daughter to become a Priest of Trazyn. She would learn the ways of Trazyn, and preach his name. They did this because they knew the Priests of Trazyn were well treated, and that it wasn't good for elves in the Infinite Empire to be opposed to the Will of Trazyn in any way. Little did they know what would follow. Upon being implanted with her 'Gift', a synthetic crystal that implants some of Trzyn's magic into those born without when implanted into the body, Alice had a vision. It is said that she spoke many secrets, already knowing the 42 Names of Trazyn, and the greatest secrets of where and how Trazyn was kept. Alice was offered a choice by Trazyn Himself, and she chose to become His Prophet, to spread His will and to become a vessel for His power. As such, she became one of the 4 current Prophets of Trazyn. Position: Alice lives in Areopolis, representing Trazyn in this great and powerful city. Here, she leads the Temple of the Infinite, which is both a religious institution, and the embassy for the Infinite Empire. She expresses her Empire and God's wills and stakes in the councils and meetings of the city, and oversees the trade relationships between the Empire and other people. This is an important task, because many are reluctant to deal with the Blessed of Trazyn. *Character App* Name: Ja'Lir Arian. Gender: Male Age: 47 Race: Human (mostly) Personality: Stern and determined, Ja'Lir is only truly happy when he's doing the work of his Lord. He's an introvert, with a stern face that reveals nothing about him. He revels in doing what he considers the right thing, and places the importance of the 'greater good' far above his own life, happily sacrificing himself to save others. History: Born in the Infinite Empire, Ja'Lir chose the life of the military when it became time for him to choose his occupation. He was trained as a warrior, to fight and die for the glory of Tazir. He became a master at what he did, both in his physical skills and his manipulation of the Gift. As such, he rose through the ranks, earning many medals in the field, fighting off those who would attempt to destroy Tazir. Eventually, through his valor and skill, he was chosen to be the personal guard for Alice, and to represent the Arm of Tazir in Areopolis. He accepted this post gladly. Position: As Alice's Paladin, it is Ja'Lir's duty to ensure her safety, and to kill any who would take her life. He is also responsible for playing his part in the diplomatic relationships between the Infinite Empire and Areopolis, a physical representation of Trazin's armies, a threat through his very existence.
