[rocketrobie2]

Name: Hargh
Age: 14 but in his specie's years he's about 21 or 22
Race: Harghsisis
Gender: Male
Appearance: He ussually only wears his loin clothe.
Backstory: 12 years ago a small creature showed up in the village of Fireside. No one knew who the little thing belonged to but he became a long running resident in the village getting by by banging sticks he found against a metal pot he managed to get his hands on. Most of the money he got was out of pity but a small margin of it was just for his upbeat attitude.
Aspirations or Desires: To get the map that was bought from the merchant.
Skills prior to adventuring: hitting stationary things with a small stick and smacking things with his hands... All three of them.
Personality: Hargh isn't very bright, he isn't very smart but what he lacks in smarts he makes up for in kindness and the shear volume of his voice. He isn't much of a fighter but he hasn't had to fight anyone before.

[The Fox Without]

Name:Amon Shukal

Age: 23

Race: Naga

Gender: Male

Appearance:

Backstory: Amon comes from a noble family of merchants in Fireside, his father being the head of the merchant's guild there and controlling much of the flow of goods. Amon, sixteenth sibling of sixteen siblings, had been born weak and sick in body, and though he had quickly become stronger and healthy as he aged, his family had always treated him as some fragile youngling, his father looking at him with disdain for his perceived weakness and his mother coddling him, not even allowing him to leave the city. But with his father nearing old age, the time quickly approaches to name a successor, and Amon is keeping his eyes peeled for anything that may gain him favor.

Aspirations or Desires: Dreams of finding a treasure or relic that he can use to surpass his brothers and sisters in status, proving himself to be worthy of taking over the families merchant guild.

Skills prior to adventure: Is an excellent shopper, always able to spot a deal and willing to haggle till the sun goes down. This may lead him to buy things he doesn't need on the basis of pride. This also makes him a great salesman, able to talk up a product, although this has gotten him in trouble when the customers have realized they've been had.

Personality: A rather calm and patient fellow, gained from years of placating his easily excitable mother. Has a silver tongue that gets him into trouble about as often as it gets him out of it. Is touchy about anyone outside his family insinuating he is to weak to do something.

[The Irish Tree]

Rook, The Tuljin Farmer

Name: Rook

Age: 19

Race: Tuljin

Gender: Male

Appearance:

Stands at about 3ft. 4 inches, and his skin is a pale slate.

Backstory: Nobody really knows where the little Tuljin came from, and not too many really cared. Adopted by a farmer and his wife, he's carried on taking care of the farm and fields after the kindly foster parents passed away, though it HAS been difficult. The soil around Fireside Canyon is poor, and the townsfolk tend to be well off enough that they can buy produce from out of town.

Aspirations or Desires: To go out and see the world for what it truly is, and maybe find out where he really comes from. That and he's likely to be out of a job in a year or two.

Skills prior to adventuring: Plowing fields, running, growing, and he's been told that he's a delightful masseuse.

Personality: Honest, but somewhat cowardly, Tuljin is loyal to a fault, that fault being that he's a damn chicken. His racial inclination to mischief seems to be all but lost on him, as he actively tries to make himself useful, often bumbling it up and causing a bigger problem. He always means well, but doesn't always do well. Also, he has a knack for seeing if someone is telling the truth.

Llhora Revinas

Name: Llhora Revinas
Age: 19
Race: Half elven/human
Gender: Female

Appearance:


Backstory:
Llhora was an orphaned child who was abandoned by her biologicalparents (details unknown) until she was rescued by humans who took her in as caretakers who were local shop owners that often did business with local merchants. In most of her known life, Llhora has lived in the safety and comfort of her home, Freeside, but has always dreamed of escaping the small world that was her home. The true world, far away from Freeside, the world she had heard from merchants who came in from other cities and read about in her many books she kept to herself. As a child, Llhora spent most of her time alone and away from home exploring the nearby swamps and would often come home dirty, her hands filled with worms or things she found in her short expeditions alone. Even as a child, Llhora displayed very deviant behavior which lead to her getting into many fights with boys, most of which she won. Out of many of her 5 step brothers, Llhora was probably the most adventurous and daring out of all of them along with having a superior ability to shoot with her bow which amazed her step father who she often went hunting with and sparked petty envy in her step brothers.

In her teenage years, Llhora would again consume time with: reading, hunting, or traveling around the area, in search of things of interest but sadly, nothing truly sparked an interest in her eyes. There were several opportune moments for her to one day escape the unfathomably boring life that was Fireside, but it was her family that she would ever stay. She is strong and fiercely independent so much that even older boys, who thought she was pretty, were easily intimidated by her when she was frustrated by them, all except her few close and loyal friends she has. Now that Llhora is an older woman, she now feels ready to travel the world in order to see and do the amazing things she had always would dream of doing. Although her life in Fireside is not as interesting as many would think, Llhora plans to change that one day by traveling the world.

Aspirations or Desires: To see the world

Skills prior to adventuring:
-Decent with a bow and has been training with it since she was a child but has only hunted small animals such as rabbits or squirrels.

Personality: Very tomboyish, adventurous, apathetic, loyal, moral.

[reddy]

Name: Arusi Ekene Ayo

Age: 25

Race: Prith

Gender: Female

Appearance:

Other than her large, black, beetle head, like most prith have, Arusi is rather plain. Neither too fat, skinny, tall, or short. She's exceedingly average, taking after her father, especially when compared to the ethereal beauties that are her mother and sisters.

Arusi wears a simple white linen dress that falls to her mid-calf and a dark red cowl. For shoes a simple pair of work sandals have always sufficed. The only extravagant parts of her ensemble are the jeweled bracelets and necklaces she wears. Glittering in the sun with all manner of metals and stones, Arusi has a weak spot for jewelry in any form.

Backstory: Arusi's family hails from a village close to the cursed sands of Kahltofal. There they would have remained if not for her father and how he "borrowed" the Caliph's favorite horse. Their flight took them to Fireside, where they settled in. That was two years ago.

Now Arusi works as a potter, much like she did before. Unfortunately all her funds are being siphoned away by the expensive habits of her mother and sisters or to bail her father out of jail once again. Maybe her father will clean up his act and maybe her sisters can finally find someone else to provide for them, but frankly Arusi isn't going to hold her breath. No, she's just about ready to give up on all of them.

Aspirations or Desires: To do something worthwhile with her family name.

Skills prior to adventuring: Arusi is a potter and has been for as long as she can remember.

Personality: Arusi is a real Type A personality and planner. Everything has an end-goal and contributes to the whole. Frustrations don't cause her to despair, they cause her to rage. She's also fairly loyal and bull-headed (that was a terrible joke and I apologize), causing her to put up with the ridiculousness of those she cares about for far longer than is probably healthy. Last, but not least, she tends to slip into the Kahl language when he gets excited or flustered.
