Cato Mancha

"Good is not a thing you are, it's a thing you do."



Cato has quite noticeable features like his short messy pink hair and reddish-pink eyes, as well as his fancy combat armor he always wear on and off the battlefield. The Armor in question isn't like traditional Lord Armor, for it consist leather shirt beneath a thin sleeveless silver chainmail tunic with a loose fitting silver and gold breastplate on top of the tunic a leather belt is tied around his waist to keep the tunic from goingg down to his knees, he wears leather pants beneath graves that have the same colors as the breastplate and lastly he has simple leather boots. While the armor looks heavy but in reality it's lighter then it looks but some pieces of the armor is a bit big on his small frame of 5'5" and 130 Ibs.

optimistic, light hearted and bright, are words people would describe Cato with. He is seen as a ray of light in the dark back in his home kingdom, many people finding comfort in his constant if at times aggressive optimism. Cato has a love for legends and stories of ancient heroes, so much he day dreams of fighting along side famous warriors and writing stories about them in secret, but he hates actual violence and hates the idea of hurting and killing people so he trained in the ways of staves to heal which he feels is the only way he can help others. But beneath his bright and cheerful outside he hides away his insecurities, particularity his fears of his kingdom's future.

Biography / History
Cato is the Prince and Heir Apparent of the Kingdom of Mira even though he's the youngest child of five. So for as long as he could remember he had always had the duties of training to become King of Mira, but luck before all that many thought lady luck wasn't on his side because Cato was a sickly child and many feared he would passed away before he even reach infancy, but with the help of many nannies and healers Cato became healthier but not healthy enough to train in the ways of weapons. But what he lacked in martial skills he made up for in personality and kindness. He was well liked by the servants and commoners he encountered, but his family feels like he is far to soft to rule over a kingdom with a steady and tough hand expected of Mirian king. A fact his sisters often reminded him of, but he was adamant about staying who he is as a person believing a king should be as kind and optimistic like in the legends his mother told him of.

While Cato lived a life of comfort, the kingdom of Mira was going though a terrible rebellion as the commoners were tired of being treated poorly by the rich and powerful. And while the King and his family wasn't the main targets of the rebellion they were still upset over the king's inaction, while in reality it was the nobility who held true power in Mira, as the nobles were ruthless and aggressive in trying to gain the king's favor, doing everything from murdering a rival noble's child or burning their estate, these fights for power often killed commoners and servants who were not involved in these power grabs and were collateral damage. The king tried everything in his power to stop the nobles, but it never lasted for more then a few days and he is forced to give favor before the rabid nobles faced their ill intent on him or his family.

When the Mirian rebellions started to become worse in his late teenhood, Cato's father commissioned a suit of armor for him to always keep on him to protect him if he ever left the castle or soon enough from assassination attempts on his life. After the first assassination attempt on his father's life Cato learned how to use a staff so he could be able to heal his family who started to be targeted by the Noble families spies.

The rebellions are still happening well into Cato's early adulthood and with the failing health of his father, it looks like Cato will soon be king of Mira, if he wants to or not.

Socially cold and stoic, many perceive Varrus to be a heartless overseer- or severely lacking in empathy. But behind the scenes, he's very considerate of his troops: often taking into consideration the projected losses and detriments to morale before making a decision that could effect them. Same goes for friends and family, though he feigns apathy to hide his empathy.

Alignment
Lawful Neutral

Biography / History

Varrus is the 7th heir in the noble Volkanon bloodline. He quickly embraced the fact he may never succeed to the head of the family, and set his mind to other pursuits. First, it was his studies, finding himself with a nose in a book. However, this quickly proved to be boring as the boy found it all to be too easy. There was no challenge, no competition, no true victory or spoils to be had. Once his studies had concluded, he quickly withdrew himself from his schooling and set out for a new objective. Almost instantly, he grew fond of mission briefings that he'd overhear and war stories that veterans recited on the streets. It was then, his focus on war became paramount. If he would not be the Head of House, he would become it's Grand General.

His fascination with war did not come without it's stigma. Many of the others his age viewed him as demented and masochistic, reading casualty reports and field manuals while simulating military movements upon a grand map. In truth, he was learning the faults of those before him to better his performance as a Leader. Every outflank, every massacre, every ambush, and every raid. These all had an answer and a reprisal in tactics, but the heat of the moment could easily sway the tide of battle. He had to be prepared for his soldiers to die, but hoping he could keep those losses to a minimum.

Ulrich Halechstin

"They say that there is a special type of magic out there, and I strive to found out what that is."



Most would consider him small for his age, standing at a height of 5'4". He is distinct among others because of his gray hair and eyes, which is quite odd for a young boy to have. He also has childish features for someone who is nearing the age of 20. He rarely wears anything other than his signature greyish green cloak and its hood is usually seen covering his head. One other noticeable feature about him is the odd shaped tattoo under his right eye, even he is unsure of what it is. He carries around a knapsack which contains books, magical or not and other needs.

- True Neutral
He believes himself to be a free spirit, never wanting to fully bow down to anyone besides himself. Yes, he can work for others and follow someone's orders but he believes that is because of his own decisions and he can choose to obey or disobey it as he pleases. However, if he sells his allegiance to you, he will see the contract to the bitter end. He has a great love for books, fictional or not, and tends to carry some with him wherever he goes. He takes comfort in these when in dire situations. He is nice to others and can strike up a conversation when he can. He is open-minded, not minding if someone is talking about their nefarious schemes or valiant deeds. So long as they don't attack him, he's good. He will learn anything he can as well, especially when it involves magic. His true goal is to learn everything to know about the field and expand it.

Biography / History
Ulrich wasn't quite your average citizen. In fact, he wasn't a citizen of any kingdom at all. He lived in a small village between two kingdoms inside a forest known for its notorious wolves. His village isn't normal at all. From a young age, kids were taught how to protect themselves, through sword or magic, it didn't matter. Once they've learned the basics, a mage and a physical warrior will be put in pairs and then thrown into the wilderness. Their goal is to make back to the village alive. Ulrich was paired up with a well-trained female mercenary. Her name was Valerie, or Val for short, and she was quite a skilled mercenary. Both of them had pristine teamwork despite just meeting and they were the first pair to return to the village thanks to Ulrich's memory and natural tracking ability.

They were prophesied to be a great pair of paid warriors. But Ulrich wasn't too keen on killing but he had no choice. By the age of 14, both he and Val started to travel to earn for their own. Partners were for life, even if you have a family, you will travel with them. That is the saying of their village. That is why partners are of opposite sex, because most can't live a normal life with this rule embedded in their minds. But Ulrich and Val were different, they knew that they were going to leave each other once one falls in love with another and they fully accepted it. They were out of the village so why follow right?

By the age of 18, they had travelled far from their village. At that moment, they were caught up in a war between two kingdoms. Seeing the opportunity, the sellswords sold their allegiance to both kingdoms and see who can win their bid. One had a higher price than the other so they immediately went for the 'blue kingdom' as they called it. They fought and gave it their best shot. Needless to say, they were quite a help despite being young. But the kingdom knew that if the 'red kingdom' would send a messenger to them having greater money, they will deviate and tell the other kingdom of all their plans. The King was wrong as the two were loyal but his decision was already made. That night, Ulrich went outside to read and study the stars. When he came back to the room, he saw Val, bloody, stabbed multiple times in her abdomen. Needless to say, he was enraged but he fully knew that his capabilities would not be enough to defeat all of them. With a heavy heart, he fled the kingdom.

But not before some minor revenge. He sold the information to the 'red kingdom' and needless to say, the kingdom won. Ulrich put up a proper burial for his partner and continued his quest alone. Without a trusty sword beside him, he felt vulnerable to say at least but he knew that Val would get angry if he gave up. And so he continued to hone his skills and find out more about his beloved magic.

Juniper Drev

"I am beauty, I am grace, I will punch you in the face"
i couldn't resist

Appearance
A tall, heavily-built woman, Juniper's strength rivals those of most men. She reaches nearly 190 cm in height and weighs slightly more than 85 kg. Her raven-black hair is cut short, barely reaching below her chin, and she's cut her bangs short so they don't get into her eyes. Two strands of hair frame her face, reaching down to her high cheekbones and square chin. Juniper's tanned, despite being raised in a northern country, and has brownstone eyes with a slight shade of olive. Her lips are slightly plump and she's got a slightly curved nose.
Juniper almost always wears battle gear - hers consists of a light iron chainmail, shoulder, elbow and knee guards made of steel and black leather knee-high boots.

Age
26

Sex
Cis-female, asexual

Weapon

Asset

Personality
Alignment
Chaotic Neutral. Juniper's ethics and morals are questionable, as she is quite ruthless and prone to putting her interests first, especially if the conflict is with strangers or people whom she does not care for. She is, however, caring for her close relatives and friends and is willing to help in battle. She doesn't really care for the law and wants to find easy or effective measures to achieve her goal, however, if punishment will be dealt or benefits gained, Juniper will reluctantly follow.

She's very charismatic and self-confident, and will try to crack a joke in most situations where it's appropriate. Juniper's not the one for complex diplomacy, she prefers to solve problems through battle. It can be quite hard to stop her when she's angry or bloodthirsty. She has an affinity for good food and will probably spend most of her money on it, since she uses her gear and weapons until they wear out. Juniper believes that practice is superior to theory and will gladly spar with different people, be it mages or swordfighters.

Biography / History
The only daughter of the royal family in Yoha, a matriarchal kingdom bordering the northern sea, she was born on one of the few sunny days. Unlike her mother, an incredibly peaceful lady and a great diplomat, Juniper showed that the battlefield was more comfortable for her than conference halls during her early days. She was a fast learner, and became an army recruit at the age of 17. Her outstanding skill with an axe and speed helped her survive and escape death even during massacres, yet it lead to more mourning than one could imagine.

Her mother fell ill when Juniper reached late puberty. Despite the effort of Yoha's best doctors, she died shortly after her daughter reached 18, leaving the throne to the youngest Drev. With Juniper reigning, Yoha's politics took quite a turn to violence - their army soon almost effortlessly conquered the nearby lands, granting the kingdom more fertile soil and resources. They stopped the conquest after doubling the country's size and turning it into federation - it remained peaceful and open to foreigners ever since.

At the age of 26, Juniper still has no husband, wife or any romantic interest. There has been a significant amount of suitors coming to her reign, most of whom, if not all, were rejected and sent back, even princes of some of the biggest countries of the continent.

Sigrdrífa

Sheer muscle is nothing compared to the strength that comes from within.



Sigrdrífa is a fairly tall and strong women, as anyone who is a solider, particularly a knight, is. Without her amour she weighs in at 90 Kilos(200 pounds) and is 208 centimeters tall(6 feet 7 inches). Her hands are heavily scarred, though they are usually covered by her gloves. Her eyes are a startlingly vivid blue color. She's rarely out of her amour, which is rather bulky, to the point where anything beyond simple movements is a bit of stretch, unless she's sleeping.

Reclass
Cleric and Mercenary

Personality
Alignment: Chaotic Good
Sigrdrífa is naturally warm-hearted and friendly, which would seem odd given her line of work. However these traits are what make her so determined so be a knight and protect others. She's interested in doing what's best for people, even if that doesn't quite fit in with what other people think. Generally Sigrdrífa doesn't have strong opinions of her own and will let others have their say, but she's keen to correct any woefully wrong and unjust things she sees.

Biography / History
Sigrdrífa was born into a family that had a long tradition of distinguished military service. Jorhan's armies relied on the Rylo family for its various excellent generals, powerful mages, and expert soldiers. The Rylo's weren't expected to serve in the military. They did serve in the military. Sigrdrífa quickly found that she had some sort of sense for tactics and naturally favored the spear. At the age of eight of course. Sigrdrífa's service had yet to promote her to more than a platoon captain but that was enough for her. She was a good leader, firm yet fair. Sigrdrífa learned what it was like to lose a friend and how to keep moving on. She never got used to that terrible feeling, but always managed to deal with it. After all, if Sigrdrífa wasn't here to protect her friends, who would be?

Keaghan

Just point at it and I'll make sure it stops bothering you... for the right coin, of course.



Brown hair, brown eyes, 5'8'', 170 lbs

Age
18

Sex
Male

Main Class
Mercenary

Reclass
Myrmidon, Barbarian

Personality
Chaotic Good
Confident but not brash, Keaghan exudes an aura of security and stability. Even since a young age he always approaches situations of stress with a level head and straight-forward methodology. Having said that, he is very opinionated when it comes to matters of politics and social order, and is not afraid to tell it the way he sees it; more often than not, he comes off as harsh and tactless. As a mercenary he will take jobs for the right price, but many times a noble or morally "correct" motive is enough to spur Keaghan into action. Normally stern in speech and presence, he is not however without the occasional jape or sarcastic comment to amuse others with.

Biography / History
Before arriving in this mysterious place, Keaghan was a young traveling mercenary, living off of the gold earned from odd jobs. Once in a while he'd find companionship in fellow comrades, but these bonds never lasted too long. The reasons for this line of work are simple: he was a gifted fighter from the moment he picked up a sword, and he didn't like his family very much. So, he left home at age 15 and did what he did best to get by. Recently, Keaghan has come under fire with the law of the lands, and is labeled as a wanted man. He is also being pursued by the law enforcement of his home land Alexandria. Because of this he's been turned down plenty of jobs for fear of liability issues or simply his new-found reputation. Now, Keaghan only wishes he could have a moment of peace and quiet, a rare occurrence in his now hectic life.

Augustus Alsroht

"I worry about dying. Not because I fear death, but because I fear my brother managing anything more than a houseplant. I stay alive to save my people, not myself."



Standing at 5'5", he's rather short for the standard dashing image of nobility, he would argue that this is because most of his growth went to his brains instead. While simple in design, his red robes are trimmed with gold, emblazoned with a sun, surrounded by two wyverns eating each others' tails. The symbol of house Alsroht.

Age

Personality
His younger brother Keisser had always been described as wearing the cape of the royal asshole. If his brother wore the cape, Augustus wore the whole rest of the outfit. A deadpan snarker by nature, he didn't doubt that parts of his brother's personality were definitely the result of Augustus's influence over the years. The most frequent target of that snark, of course, being Keisser.

As the heir-apparent to the kingdom, the people had no idea about this of course. He was trained from a young age how to address the public, and he tried to maintain as regal an image as possible when not among people who were close to him. Being in proximity to his brother, however, tended to break the facade. Or anyone else who sufficiently annoyed him, for that matter.

He was a man who loved his country, and was filled with as much pride as was expected of a prince. It could even be said he loved his brother, although he would likely never admit that to anyone, let alone the man himself. It could be said that while his brother had the love of the army and the people, Augustus had their respect. The two, in the end, made a good team. A shame only one of them was in present company.

Alignment
Lawful Neutral: While he cares a great deal about his people, it is his belief that a king must be above the concepts of good and evil, and instead must strive to do what is best for his subjects. Law, however, superseded both concepts. It brings peace, and nothing benefits a nation more than that.

Biography / History
Being the firstborn son of the royal family, Augustus was raised from birth with the expectation that he would be the heir to the kingdom. He had always been a smart child, and gotten the attention of the kingdom's mage advisers from a young age. His brother, born just a couple years after him, showed a much larger knack for the physical duties in life, and thus caught the attention of the kingdom's wyvern knights. The two developed a (not so) friendly rivalry, reflecting the long-present divide in their nation.

Erkonne was a nation of wyvern riders, somewhat withdrawn from the rest of the world. They maintained steady trade relations with their neighbors, but mostly kept an isolationist policy, using their strong military to ward off anyone looking to take advantage of their small size and rich mines. At the upper eschelons of society there were two main forces in conflict: The military, and the mage-advisers of the king. The two battled constantly for influence over time, and indeed small civil wars had erupted under kings who were too weak to keep the factions in check. When house Alsroht came to power it put an end to the fighting: placing the military above the mages and ensuring any king who sat on the throne was also a wyvern rider. Still, to appease to mages, they added the Sun to their house sigil, representing the anima magic the kingdom's mages practiced.

Augustus was poised to tip this balance once more upon his ascension to the throne. His father was in failing health, and already the advisers were putting pressure on him to declare the military subservient to them. However, before any of this could come to a boiling point he... vanished, and found himself at The Tower. Ripped away from his family and his kingdom.
