[h2][color=gray]The Braves of Marceilles[/color][/h2][hr] [hider=Sylrael] [center] [img]https://i.ibb.co/WG3Rpz4/Sylrael.png[/img] [h1]Sylrael[/h1] [b]58[/b] | [b]Male[/b] | [b]Elf[/b] [/center] [b]Description:[/b] Sylrael has long blonde hair and emerald eyes, and an athleticism that betrays his seemingly lithe frame which he often silhouettes with flowing fabrics. He is the finest shot with a longbow at distance, and a capable combatant in melee. Often, Anton plays as shield for Sylrael while he lets loose arrow after arrow. He is Anton's second-in-command of the Braves of Marceilles, and often relays his orders to the other Braves. In the past, Sylrael briefly aided Anton during Lamont's Rebellion where they liberated the city of Artois; Sylrael's connections and grounded knowledge of forest and swampy terrain helped destroy the slave trade that Durant had been permitting in the region. Sylrael departed Ravenfell for a time on his own personal quests, but fate reunited Anton and Sylrael when he first started serving as envoy for the Ghost King. Anton had told him the truth of the matter, and Sylrael sympathised with him. Seeking to comfort his friend and comrade who was suffering from profound loneliness, Sylrael suggested forming a band of sellswords together: the Braves of Marceilles. Sylrael believes he is Anton's closest confidant, but there is always more that Anton holds back about whatever he confides in him about. [b]Magic/Seed:[/b] Unknown [/hider] [hider=Melodia Serenis] [center] [img]https://i.pinimg.com/474x/bb/28/1b/bb281b32e810f4902e7808e85edc5320.jpg[/img] [h1]Melodia Serenis[/h1] [b]25[/b] | [b]Female[/b] | [b]Human[/b] [/center] [b]Description:[/b] Melodia has long brown hair and brown eyes, with a figure that would make some courtiers jealous. She wears leather-padded scoop-neck blue blouse, accented with a half skirt over cream tight pants with knee-high brown leather boots. She sometimes wears jewellery to accent her adventurer's look. She keeps a dagger handy in her boot, and a sword at her belt. She was once a Sister of the Flame, part of a monotheistic cult from a neighboring kingdom of Ravenfell. After an unmentioned disgrace, she left the Priory and struck out on her own as a mercenary mage for hire. Her talent with a selection of pyromancy spells lead her to all sorts of different jobs, not all of them pleasant. Eventually, she crossed paths with Anton when he required aid in destroying a baggage train in a select amount of time. For a modest fee, Melodia set fire to the entire baggage train within minutes while Anton had kept its guards very busy. Afterward, Anton offered a permanent place with the Braves and, seeing a chance to depart from the solitary life, Melodia took him up on the offer. [b]Magic:[/b] x Shield - A defensive spell, Melodia conjures a barrier that protects her and two others beside her. x Flames - A simple destruction spell, Melodia evokes a small plume of fire from her fingertips. x Firebolt - A classic destruction spell, Melodia launches a bolt of fire at a target at range. x Protection from Fire - Given her proclivity for fire, Melodia often bestows this spell upon herself and her companions. For half an hour, those bearing this benediction (as well as whatever they have equipped) are protected from the heat of ordinary and magical flames. x Wall of Fire - An oft defensive spell, Melodia etches magic into the ground that bursts with a wall of flames to halt an advance. She usually either blocks off chokepoints or creates a defensive circle. The flames last for half a minute or until Melodia wills it, whichever comes first. x Song of Fire - Melodia augments her pyromancy with her voice, uttering a haunting dirge as fire. Uncontrollable geysers of flame violently erupt and explode from the ground in a large area around her, increasing in frequency and intensity as Melodia's voice maintains and reaches a crescendo.
