Eye color: Deep, dark blue
Hair color: Golden Blonde
Skin tone: Pale
Physique: Mildly well muscled
General Hygiene: Generally dirty, but makes efforts to keep clean enough to stay healthy.
Notable marks/scars and how they were obtained: A long scar along his chest, see History.
-- Demeanor: Heirn is a shy and cautious boy, but once he gets to know a person he becomes open and funny. Heirn enjoys exploring the wilderness, despite his fears. He makes efforts to learn everything he can, because he feels he didn't learn enough about anything other than blacksmithing at home.
.:. History .:.
Heirn was born and raised in a rather small village in the kingdom of Daneskold. His early years are largely forgotten, and his life was mostly playing with small children until the age of 8. At this point, his father began to teach him the ways of blacksmithing, though this was by no means full time. Heirn took to it quickly, and enjoyed it immensely. By the time he was 12, Heirn was a good apprentice to his father. He spent what free-time he had exploring the forests around his small village, occasionally venturing out with his younger brother or the only other boy his age in town, Brom. In a fall during an adventure on a frozen lake, Brom was drowned, and Heirn given a long scar across his chest from a long, thick branch sticking out of the lake. Heirn blames himself for Brom's death, and from that point forward promised to adventure with vastly more care. He worked towards defending himself, and learning about the envirionment and how to handle it. His father helped him create his sword when he was 14, and he was gifted his mail shirt a year later. Heirn was doing well at blacksmithing, and his life, when the riders came for him. He was stunned to learn he had been chosen, but after getting over his initial surprise, was quite pleased that he would be going. His mother opposed his leaving, for obvious reasons, but his father told them both that if Heirn wanted it, then nothing would make Hanslo prouder than seeing his son become a Dragon Rider. Erika relented, and so Heirn, with a heartfelt goodbye to his family, left to pursue his new life.
.:. Contacts .:.
-Hanslo Vaulenfold, Father. Hanslo is a blacksmith in Heirn's home village. The man served in the war, but generally avoids speaking about it. He is quiet and composed, and rarely shouts. He is widely regarded by the other townsfolk as a voice of reason.
-Erika Vaulenfold, Mother. Erika is the loyal wife to Hanslo, and serves her job well as his assistant and mother of the family. She is the more outspoken of the couple, and townsfolk often visit her for gossip
-Joseb Vaulenfold, Brother. Heirn's only sibling, which his parents have recieved some mild ridicule over (that fact that there are only two children), Joseb is the constant thorn in his older brother's side. He's happy, carefree, and clever as a fox. He often finds himself in entirely too much trouble for his own good, and Heirn has to get him out of it.

.:. Battle Information .:.
>> Steel Sword Forged himself, Heirn treasures his sword more than any of his other items.
Armor:
>> Mail Shirt Heirn's only real piece of armor, a gift from his father on his 15th birthday. Just a generic iron mail shirt.
>>Leather Tunic/Clothes Generic clothing, offers mild protection
-- Weapon of Choice: Sword

.:. Equipment .:.
Please make note of what your character is wearing and any items they may be carrying, also note if they can help or hinder them at all.

.:. Talents .:.
Blacksmithing, Humor

.:. Flaws .:.
Shy: Heirn blames himself for the death of his friend, and is, as such, extremely cautious with befriending new people, or allowing them to stay close to him.
Overly Cautious: As seen above, Heirn has developed a desire bordering on obsession to be ready when he goes out, in order to prevent another horrible accident.

Eliysia Reyan Kristansa

.:. Personal Information .:.

-- Name: Eliysia Reyan Kristansa “Rey”
-- Age: 15
-- Race: Human
-- Sex: Female
-- Height: 5 feet and 5 inches
-- Weight: 140lb
-- Nationality: Belisama
—Occupation: Dragon Rider Trainee
-- Status: Alive
-- Appearance:

Hider

Rey is a slender girl with long blonde hair, lighter in some strands then others, with gleaming blue eyes reflecting the deep green pools of the Cyqat’s own water. She has her father’s stubborn chin and her mother’s smile, though she shares neither of their sun bleached skin, hers a darker shade of tan like the sandy shores of the lake. She wears no physical blemishes and is all around an attractive young woman though she doesn’t see it as so herself. Living on the water gives the girl ample opportunity to bathe and wash, more so when the caravan’s come.

-- Demeanor:
Rey has a very happy demeanor, almost like that of a small child, she's an easy read and is horrible at keeping a poker face. She says what she thinks and is very outspoken when she doesn't agree with something but she's try to stay on everyone's good side and not tarnish the name she was given by her parents. Her views on death mimic those of her clan, when people die their souls go back to the rivers and lakes until a worthy parent drinks of it and they are taken into that family.

.:. History .:.

Cyqats Expanse

The Cyqats Expanse is a large lake with many tributary rivers that feed in and out of it; it’s waters breathe live to many of the wandering travelers and the Belisama clan. Spanning a width of 57.17 km, nearly 250 km in length, and the average depth of 22m, with a maximum depth of 70m, it’s the largest lake within the Eastern Forest. Home to several different species of fish and fauna, it offers a save reprieve from the treacherous journey through the forgotten trees surrounding the serene expanse. It has been known to be the target of foreign raiders and many a lord trying to expand their land, as it offers a unique place to store ships and cargo as well as have a virtually unlimited access to cold water making the constant forging of weapons a likely possibility.

Belisama

The Belisama Clan has lived on the expanse since before the kingdom’s creation and will continue living there long after its fall. Though they have yet to truly swear fidelity to the current throne they offer no resistance or animosity, often trading and selling weapons and trade with the Queens merchants. A proud group of people, they seldom travel outside the forest, having little need to seek else where for things they might need. If there is war they send weapons, if there is need for soldiers they send out their firstborn sons to gain glory and spread their clan and family names across the realm. Their daughters are to be married off to secure ties and future business deals. Such is the tradition of the clan. Besides fish and leather work their main export are weapons and armor forged with ancient metalwork long forgotten to the changing world around them. Little has changed in the clan's history or tradition since it was first formed.

Ever since she was young Rey has riled under the traditions of her clan, she's always had a desire to explore and see what the world outside the water's reach is truly like. Whenever the traders would come to visit and sell their wares, she was right there at their heels begging for stories and tales of the lands they traveled from, why they smelled like spices and wine, what it was like to ride a horse instead of a boat. The only thing that saved the small energetic girl from going to explore the land herself was the water. It called to her. She knew the stories of the clan leaders and shamans having the ability to hear and decipher what the water wanted, but she was to be wed off away from the water to a pompous fool she had only meet once but the taste of dislike for him still tainted her mouth. She would often sneak out with the hunting party and beg them to teach her how to hunt, how to be of use to the clan. During the times she was turned away she would turn to the scouting clans, or her mother’s apprentice who was often set out to gather herbs and poisons. Rey doesn't hate her home, she loves the expanse but she fears that if the clan does not change and adapt to the times that it too will be left behind in history's wake.

.:. Contacts .:.

Erith Kristansa: Mother. Alive. Her mother is the current healer and shaman of their small clan, she also serves as an advisor and teacher to the smaller children of the Belisama.

Waylith Kristansa: Farther. Alive. Chieftain of the clan, he rules his family and people with an iron will and a tender guidance. Rey is his favorite of the two children, and thinks marrying off a Dragon Rider would bring great honor to their clan.

Rayath Kristansa: Brother. Alive. The future ruler of the Belisama. He’s as cocky and arrogant as older brothers go, but is a quick study and can easily best some of the older clan members at foot racing and river running.

Q’arith Ly’re: The Caravan Leader. Alive. Q’arith is around the same age as Rey’s father, and has treated her like daughter ever since she was born, a gentle man with a kind smile he often tells her stories and brings her trinkets of the world outside her forest.

Ranoldo Meritan:Betrothed. Unfortunately Alive. The heir to a small township and landholder, he is an older man full of pomus and arrogance setting his greedy eyes on learning the secrets of the Belisama’s trade. He’s rather full of himself and Rey despises him greatly but will not willingly go against her father’s wishes.

.:. Battle Information .:.

Rey is used to hunting so knows little of proper combat or how to maneuver gracefully on the fields of war, so she keeps towards the outskirts away from the main frays. She’s adapted towards Hit-and-Runmstyle that allows her free movement and keeps her from easily becoming targeted herself.

-- Weapon of Choice:
Siren’s Cry

A bow gifted to her from her mother on her 15th birthday, passed down through the generations.

.:. Equipment .:.

-- Head: A intricate headdress made from steel and gold adorned with a large green gem, she had fished from the bottom of the Expanse. It does little for armor or protection.

-- Torso: She's clothed with a seemingly simple white clothed dressed forged using the delicate art of blending silk and steel giving it a strength just as hard and durable as any standard armor.

---- Underclothes: Having not developed enough to truly need a holster for her chest, she settles on binding with basic leather wraps that slightly deter her breathing but ultimately give her a flatter chest making her aiming abilities a lot straighter.

-- Legs: She wears simply leg warmers, not being used to colder climates they're more suited to dismiss bugs and loose briers than protect against the wind or other stronger forces.

---- Underclothes: Rey's lower parts are adorned with the basic loincloth that is customary with her clan. It does little but protect her nether regions from the elements.

-- Right Arm: Nothing adorns her right arm but a simple archers bracing on her wrist allowing her better movement and control of the bow.

-- Left Arm: On her left arm rest a silver band that winds it's way up the entirety of her arm. It's durable enough to not falter or break under a direct assault but it's mostly for decoration and adornment.

-- Primary Weapon: A recurve bow, hardened oak wood mixed and inlaid with steel and silver. It's a sturdy weapon that seen much uses and offers little resistance on the draw back, along with a simple leather quiver that holds arrows fletched with hawk feathers and tipped with steel arrow heads broken into three small spikes at the tip.

-- Secondary Weapon: A small pouch rest on her hip holding flat stones found in the lake, tied around the outside is a small leather throng. A simple child's sling, plain but effective in the right circumstances.

-- Primary Support Item: Another small pouch filled with mixture of ground up plants when thrown causes momentary blindness and irritation to the eyes and face.

.:. Talents .:.

Trained by the hunters of her clan, Rey has a good sense for tracking people or animals, she also been taught how to determine if a plant is poisonous or edible and if it can be made into crude medicine and poultices.

.:. Flaws .:.

Mischievous: Rey against all upbringing and the lessons pounded into her is always looking for new ways to get out of doing her chores and menial tasks. She would much rather slip away and explore or attempt to pull tricks on someone then be forced to live up to her status.

Short-Tempered: She tends to get frustrated easily when things don’t always work out her ways; she has been known to argue with a tree for not giving her the fruit instead of her having to climb up there and get its herself.

.:. Dragon .:.

Dragon Rider: All Riders share an intimate link with their dragon which allows telepathic communication. They also possess the listed effects and abilities.

>> Ageless: Nlonger physically ages, unless they chooses to.
>> Magic: All Riders are capable of utilizing ‘The Song’, but because of this link to their dragons Riders can tap upon their dragons well of magic, allowing them to access spells that are impossible for non-Riders.

Kifo Haraka

.:. Personal Information .:.

-- Name: Kifo Haraka
-- Age: 27
-- Race: Human
-- Sex: Male
-- Height: 6 feet 3 inches
-- Weight: 227 lbs
-- Nationality: Kalqwua
—Occupation: Blacksmith, traveling merchant, assassin.
-- Status: Alive.
-- Appearance:

Eye color: Brown

Hair color: Black

Skin tone: Brown

Physique: Muscular frame formed from many years at the forge. His raw strength proves as much and his tall stature finishes off a spectacularly intimidating build.

General Hygiene: Kifo purposefully keeps up an appearance of a poverty ridden man. Soot, ash, and dirty finger nails help provide a picture of a man who works hard and long to survive. On the other hand, when the occasion calls, he cleans up nicely. In very little time he can cast the illusion of being noble born or someone of equal importance.

Notable marks/scars and how they were obtained: A two inch scar across his right cheek formed by a dagger many years prior. Improper care has left the mark distinguished. Various burns and scars amongst his hands earned from forging. Twin dagger design branded onto the back of his right shoulder with a border written in some long forgotten language.

-- Demeanor:

Kifo is composed and calculating. He swiftly assesses those he meets, listening to their choice of words, their body movements and tone of voice. While not outright unfriendly, he isn’t the type of man to completely open up and converse with people he does not deem “friends”. Most people he meets, however, take an extreme liking to him.
Kifo considers life to be a fleeting and unavoidably uncomfortable. The people he most closely associates with have taught him to think of life as a plague and death is the only cure.

.:. History .:.

Kifo’s early life wasn’t anything spectacular or out of the ordinary. He is the second born out of four children total and he parents were simple innkeepers who probably hadn’t had an adventurous day in their life, at least as far as Kifo was concerned. He and his older sister, Rayne, who was his parents’ favorite though they would never admit it, developed a strong bond as the two oldest siblings. He helped her develop fun ways to complete her chores around the inn and she in turn brought him out into the open world while she searched for precious stones or met with friends. It was her who first place a bow in his hands and he hasn’t placed it down since.

After returning to town from one such expedition the two discovered their parents’ inn ablaze. Despite the obvious danger and against the wishes of the small crowd forming, the two rushed inside to discover their youngest sibling slain and the other missing. Hearing screams they rushed towards the sound just in time to see a figure cloaked in shadow slice their mother’s neck and another plunged a small sword into their father’s heart before vanishing through an open window. The two fled and never looked back.

It was during this time that Rayne explained that their parents’ inn was actually a way station for a secret order of assassins to whom they belonged. After seeking shelter amongst them, Rayne and Kifo were accepted as full-fledged members and trained in the art of assassination. Kifo picked up blacksmithing as his chosen cover and has been traveling, completing assignments, and forging for locals until the dragon arrived.

.:. Contacts .:.

Rayne Haraka – beloved sister who taught him the basics of archery and watched over him after their parents’ murders. He hasn’t seen her in two years’ time since she moved higher into the ranks and has been utilized in faraway lands.

Kylion Haraka – brother and third born who has been missing since the attack on the inn. Presumed dead.

Riko Haraka – sister and youngest child who was found slain after the attack. Her youthful innocence kept a smile on Kifo’s face and he often returns to that place when he feels upset.

Helena Haraka – mother and innkeeper/assassin. She taught her children to love and protect each other with a full heart and how to read people’s intentions based off of their demeanor. Died at the hands of rival assassins.

Yolarn Haraka – father and innkeeper/assassin. A man of few words, Yolarn spent his parenthood instructing his children on the meaning and value of hard work. To never expect thing easily and if obtained easily to never expect them to last. Died at the hands of rival assassins.

Glen Marbick – Kifo’s handler during his training in the assassin order. Glen helped fill the shoes left vacant by Kifo’s father’s untimely death. A good friend and accomplice to Kifo’s parents, Glen has kept a watchful eye on Rayne and Kifo over the years. Currently resides in Tempur City.

Archer – adept at hitting targets from a distance.

Sense Motivation – has mastered reading people’s emotional state and true intentions.

Master of Disguise - with the right amount of time and materials Kifo can transform his outward appearance to match any setting.

.:. Flaws .:.

Kifo is stubborn and may lose focus on an important task if he does not get to do things his way. He has a mean streak which he tries desperately to control so that he doesn’t lash out at those who have done him no harm. Distrusting people, even those he has warmed up to, has kept him from gaining much.
