Opinions on the members of Samara Cell according to Gregor Sibassius, 4E208
Brynja: She's a soldier. Dutiful, protective, capable, but I've seldom met a more blunt and unsociable woman. You know, now that I think about it, we've never exchanged more than a few words, if that. But that's not a requirement for a dependable ally and considering her... well, size, and skill with Restoration magic and the blade, I'll be glad to have her by my side in combat. You'll have to ask someone else if you want to know what she's like as a friend, I can't help you there. Sorry.
Megana: Ah, yes, Megana. Sometimes I think the poor girl is way out of her depth with us. I believe she was the one who accidentally freed the prisoners during the infiltration, right? Yes, well, that was unfortunate. But her heart is in the right place and she has a strong sense of justice, naive as it may be. She tried to have words with me over Nblec's death, if you catch my drift, and I think by the end of our conversation she was even less sure of herself than before. I took no pleasure in doing that but it was necessary to set the record straight. Aside from that, I have no qualms with her whatsoever. She's perfectly lovely. I like that she's trying to be there as a friend for Jaraleet. He could use friends. Gods know he's had a difficult life. The support of someone still relatively innocent and noble shall do him good. As for myself, Megana is too young and too inexperienced to really be friends with. When I was a young man, then perhaps, but now I've seen and done so much that separates us that we just have... very little in common. But, like I said, perfectly lovely.
Calen: I said this to Raelynn before but I really think Calen is the best of us. I realize that, having said this, my next few words will make me sound like I'm full of myself, but Calen reminds me of when I was a young man. Beauty, friendship, love, wonder... these were the things that I cherished most. Calen keeps these qualities alive through song and charm and action and I admire him for it. He composed a song for me, did you know that? It was very touching. It saddens me that I cannot be more like the man he thinks I am, and it nags at my conscience that he almost died for nothing. A man like him should not have to be caught up in a war like this. It’s tragic, really.
Raelynn: I think you already know what my feelings for Raelynn are. Words cannot describe how grateful I am that she is a part of my life now. She… understands me in ways that I cannot expect from anybody else. No, I won’t tell you how exactly, those are my secrets to keep. Just know that I love her, all of her, and that I will do everything in my power to keep her safe and happy. Anyone who interferes with that will surely perish. That’s the oath I’ve sworn to her and it’s one I intend to keep.
Latro: An interesting man. There is much more to him than meets the eye. I think he has had a rough life but his capacity for empathy and tenderness is… admirable. He’s got a sound mind and while he looks like more of a soft-hearted man than Calen, he can be hard and ruthless when the situation calls for it. I like him, I think. Perhaps I shall learn more about him, one day. I won’t pretend to understand what he sees in the Khajiit but I wish them all the happiness in the world.
Rhona: I have not spoken to her, nor do I know what she’s capable of. Truthfully, I have no opinion about this woman.
Nanine: Very perceptive. Too perceptive, I think, for her own good. She’s a soldier as well, like Brynja, but fortunately not quite as brusque. From what I’ve heard about her combat prowess as a battlemage, I shall be glad to have her on our side when things inevitably go to shit. She keeps to herself mostly and that is fine by me.
Alim: Hmph. Yes. Alim. What’s the nice way to say this? He’s a free spirit, if you will. Look, I don’t think he’s a bad man or anything, but he gets on my nerves. I don’t care for his flippant attitude or his flirtatious behavior towards women who are quite clearly spoken for. I wonder if there’s anything of substance behind all that glib charm. So far, I have not been convinced that there is.
Shakti: I don’t know anything about her and I’ve only ever seen her at the party the other day. She looks young, and after she’d been drinking with Daro’Vasora and Mazrah she looked quite drunk. I don’t know what else to say.
Solandil: Who?
Anifaire: Another elf I am not acquainted with, but I have seen the way she looks and walks. Very timid. I’m not sure what she’s doing here with us, truth be told. I think she might be good friends with Alim, or something more, but I don’t know and I don’t care to know.
Mazrah: Gregor laughs. Right, Mazrah. I’ll never forget the way she and Raelynn were giggling on the floor during the party after they ingested too much moonsugar. I think she was quite nice. Said I was a lucky man for being with Raelynn, which is an astute observation. The whole… you know, tribal Orc look, half-naked and tattooed from tip to toe is a little much for civilized society, perhaps, but who am I to judge. I’ve heard that she’s a terrific warrior and I’m inclined to believe it, with a body like that.
Judena: I’m sure she’s very nice, but… I don’t want to talk about it.
Jaraleet: Quite possibly the single most useful member of our group of misfits. I didn’t like throwing him under the wagon for what happened to Nblec. I’m quite fond of Jaraleet, actually. We have a professional, mutual understanding, and I respect his ability to approach things with an objective and pragmatic point of view. I think it would be good for his personal growth to leave Argonia behind and become an independent mercenary or something of that ilk, but that seems unlikely. He has been entirely forged and moulded by his country and his service… until recently, anyway. Either way, long story short, he’s dependable, capable and reasonable. I like him.
Daro’Vasora: We don’t agree on everything, I suppose, and she’s struggling with the burden of responsibility that she shouldered after Rhea Valerius died, but I have no qualms with her. She’s doing what she thinks is best for herself and for us and I can respect that. Her relationship with Latro strikes me as… unusual. I guess it’s true what they say; war brings the strangest people together. I’m not inclined to become close friends with her, however. I think she would react quite poorly to some of my, ah, habits. Just a tad judgemental, you see.
Brynja: She's a soldier. Dutiful, protective, capable, but I've seldom met a more blunt and unsociable woman.
