Name: Garrett Alias: Nil Gender: Male Age: 24 Appearance:Normal attire, thieving attire. Garrett is a rather small man, only 5'6 and weighing in at a measly 114 pounds; he is extremely lanky, with no fat to speak of and barely any muscle. His face is almost always clean-shaven and his dark brown hair is cut short. He has a scar running from his right cheek up to his eyebrow. Personality: Garrett is a rather snarky and rude young man. He is open to conversations with others, but they should expect more than a few sarcastic jabs if they do talk with him, and they'd better have thick skin because he almost always flat-out insults someone in conversations. What can he say? Being raised by street rats doesn't give you the best social skills. Despite his rather rude nature, he actually has a pretty big hero complex (despite what he might tell you), and always tries to help people in need. In addition to this, he abhors killing, his excuse being that it's unprofessional; really, it's just because he doesn't think he could live with himself if he did kill someone. Biography: TL;DR: an orphan raised by a gang of street kids who stole to survive. Ended up leading another gang of kids after the old one had disbanded. Eventually went on to become a solo thief, then recently joined the Thieves Guild.
Garrett was born in a brothel to a whore, his father being a long forgotten client. His mother died in childbirth, and the other prostitutes dumped him out on the street to die, seeing no point in raising a bastard child. Nine times out of ten, this is where a whoreson's life would end, but, as fate would have it, he was taken in by a gang of homeless orphans who stole to survive. Again, nine times out of ten this is where a whoreson's life would end, but he was able to survive his first few years of life on the street.
Garrett was always lucky like that.
Due to the fact that the street rats had just found the baby and had no indication of his name, they picked one for him, leaving him without a last name because none of them even knew what a last name was, what with them being orphans. They raised him as one of their own, teaching him how to con and steal, which would prove useful later in his life.
When Garrett was six, he conned a shopkeeper out of some bread. When he was seven, he picked his first pocket. When he was eight, he picked his first lock. And when he was nine, he first ran and hid from guards. By the time Garrett was 14, most of the original members of the gang that raised him were gone (either dead, arrested, or having gone off on their own), and he found himself leading a new gang of younger kids. However, this time he began to teach them how to break into homes and stores rather than conning and pickpocketing unwitting people.
Five years later, Garrett decided to leave the gang, passing on the title of leader to the oldest of them. He began a solo career as a thief, sneaking into stores and houses and stealing everything that wasn't nailed down (and sometimes, even things that were) as well as the classic pickpocketing when not on a job. Recently, he received word of the Thieves Guild that had formed, and decided to join them in order to make more cash.
Skills: Stealth Lockpicking Pickpocketing Basic Archery Equipment: A bow and quiver of arrows. A three inch dagger (just for emergencies; Garrett's never had to put it to use). A lockpicking kit. A rope.
Personality: Kai is a rather expressive individual. He usually makes his feelings, as well his as thoughts and opinions quite clear to those around him, even when they hardly make him sound smart. He is bold, impulsive, and headstrong, and will do what it takes to survive when the situation demands it. Kai misses his old crew and his life out at sea, and often thinks of those times. This is apparent as he frequently goes back to the waterfront at night to sit by the harbor while gazing out into the waters.
Biography: Kai was raised and trained out at sea by his pirate father and his crew. During his childhood, he witnessed countless successful plunders by the pirates. Seeing the men whom he practically considered family live their lives by taking what they wanted by force, the then young and impressionable Kai readily took after their ways, and he was contented with his life as far as he knew. However, everything changed one day when they chose the wrong target to rob - an enemy vessel with a crew they could not overpower. This failure resulted in the death of Kai's father and his men, leaving the terrified teenager hiding as a stowaway on the enemy ship. He eventually made his escape when the ship arrived at the waterfront of Luthias City. Since then, Kai had been surviving by the only way he knew how to - by taking what he needed, whenever he needed it, and by any means necessary.
Skills: Swordsmanship and firearm handling. (I'll include ship steering and sea navigation, though those are probably not going to matter in this RP.)
Appearance: Shi is one of the unlucky few struck with dwarfism, and in his adulthood has been at most 4'8". However, almost as a sort of compensation, he is pudgy and very wide, often giving him the appearance of a ball. He is often found dressed either in the yellow robes of an imperial governor when dealing with other thieves, or the brown clothing of the peasantry when not working. Age: 35 Name: Liu Shi Nickname/Alias: N/A Gender: Male
Personality: Shi is polite, first and foremost. He sees the use of imperfect titling as a personal sin. He is a man of lies upon lies, often even fibbing about non-important information just to practice for when it really counts. He expects the same out of all the thieves he meets, and insists on proof whenever possible, even for seemingly trivial matters. Biography: There was a time, in a far off land, when Shi was a real stand-up guy. He stayed long hours in school and the library, poring over books of politics, dreaming of a glamorous career in the imperial court. His wish was granted when his hard work paid off, him just nudging out the bottom scorers in the merit test. However, he, coming from a less-than-wealthy family, didn't have many resources to study and didn't do so well that he could land the capital duties of his dreams. Instead, he was sent to the far corners, often having to govern barbarians or raiders. This is what led to him taking the bribe that fell him. He thought one might not hurt, but the emperor has spies everywhere, and Shi was immediately booted out of his place and exiled. Now, he hopes Luthias is far enough away from the emperor's steely gaze and the disappointment he would face from his family should he ever return.
Skills: Administration, philosophical debating, speeches, appraisal Equipment: Money. Loads of it.
Personality: Caring to those she sees as hard done by but can hold her ground against some of the meanest looking thugs when she needs to. Biography: TLDR; She was married off to a rich lord who then killed her family, she took her opportunity when their carriage was attacked by bandits and made off with the finery and one of the bandits - selling the goods and buying a tavern in Luthias. For the past twenty years she has been carting ale for sale around the city, listening to gossip and picking pockets as she went.
Annie grew up out in the country, her family farm was often the subject of raids. After one particularly bad winter raid they were left with so little food Annie's father made a deal with a local lord that, in exchange for food and guards he would give a portion of all future profits to the lord and his daughter's hand in marriage.
A year into an unhappy marriage (understandably for a teenager married to a fifty year old with four other wives) Annie discovered the worst. Two years ago, in a feud between himself and a neighbouring lord, her husband had taken on a mercenary group and promised them land he couldn't give...until Annie's father asked for protection. The mercenary group had gone in under the guise of guards and killed the family as they slept, taking the land for themselves.
Between the boiling anger and paralyzing sadness Annie hadn't known how to act. Six months later, however, their carriage had been waylayed by bandits - a battle between the guards and bandits left Annie, the lord and one wounded bandit. A well placed dagger later and only Annie and the bandit remained. The two made their way to Luthias, a city they could get lost in and, with the money from the lord's finery, carriage and horses, bought a tavern.
Annie and Bolen married but his injured leg kept him from a life of crime. Annie, however, was only just getting a taste. She often takes to the streets, ale for sale in her cart, and under the guise as a seller and advertiser of their wares slipped into all areas of the city (few guards say no to a sip of ale during a long shift) and keeps her ears and pockets open. Twenty years since and she has quite a bit of experience under her (now sizeable) belt.
Skills: Reading people, sifting gossip for important information, pickpocketing and her stout frame won't make her the deadliest fighter by a long shot but she isn't to be discounted. Equipment: The dagger she used for her first kill has never left her side since.
Appearance: 5'0, dark hair that is cut unevenly around her ears and has longer layers on top that stick out. Deep brown eyes and a pale complexion, with a small almost pointed nose. Skinny but has tight little muscles on her legs and arms. Sometimes wears charcoal around her eyes to look menacing. Normally wears dark clothes and a thin black cloak. Age:24 Name: Krista Mueller Nickname/Alias: Ratte Gender: Female
Personality: Ratte is carefree in the deadly sense. She holds her true feelings back well behind a mask of sarcasm, flirting and general boisterous and rowdy behaviour. She is a pessimist, but can be very caring on the inside and looks after those she considers worthy of her care with a fierce loyalty, though those people are few and far between. She is determined and stubborn - if she wants something, she's going to try to get it, even if that means betraying someone. Biography: Ratte grew up with her sister in a quiet little family that couldn't afford much. Ratte was never the favourite child - she was brutish and stubborn and often came home with bruises or something stolen, often egged on by her sister though nobody ever saw that part. Her parents were at the end of their patience with her, when her little sister became sick. Ratte took on the role of providing the medicine for her under the guise of having found a job. In reality, she was stealing and when her parents and sister found out, they banned her from the house. Ratte lived on the streets for a long time after that, still sneaking medicine into the house when she could, but learning skills to live on her own and survive in this bitter world of ungrateful beings. She eventually hitched a ride out of town to escape from a group that she had pissed off with her nature and stealing from them and never came back. She was never able to settle, moving from town to town, eventually landing in Luthias - somewhere she was hoping to make a name for herself before she moved on. A name everyone either hates or fears, of course.

Personality: Despite Reeve being a former noble, he has just as many street smarts as a criminal who's grown up in the slums. He is typically cold, calculating, and has a complete disregard for the lives of anyone he doesn't care about, which means he hasn't met a single person whose death he's been sad about. After his fortune was torn away from him, Reeve wanted revenge against those who ruined him more than anything else.

Despite his parent's protests, they were kicked to the streets. They didn't have any life skills, because they thought they didn't need any. That winter, his entire family was killed by hypothermia.

Biography: Nadya grew up with her mother in a nomadic traveling group - that she banded with for years. This is how she became affiliated with the Gypsy lifestyle. Constantly having to beg for food, money, and struggling to make trades with people in towns - but as she got older she found better ways to get these needs. Entertaining the masses for money with her lute/tarot cards/fortune telling/dancing became a quick way for money. Or, there was stealing.... Her mother didn't teach her the stealing aspect, it just came naturally as she was beginning to starve more and more - hunger and materialistic wise. Even though the nomadic tribe traveled with goats, and constantly revisited the same spots for rest, and foraging. It all wasn't enough for her. She wanted more money, food, to relax instead of constantly travel to these empty promise filled homes.

He was berated for not being a "hard worker". However, the meager pay of a deckhand wasn't enough for Arin. He started taking little... "side jobs." Turns out, some workers wanted other workers or bosses gone, and Arin was willing to oblige for a bit of coin.
He'd do it all. Drag a worker down the alley, dunk a boss under the water for just long enough. He quickly garnered a hushed reputation throughout the waterfront's workers. When other establishments started hearing about him, they'd then approach him for some more serious assassination contracts. He took what he could if he thought he could do it. His change of work made him get more leaner and athletic for the jobs. However, among the contracts, he found he had a second knack for pinching things of worth too. He enjoyed the work. He got to stick it to the rich who held the town down, and pick up things in return as well as a sum.
