Well, you've caught my interest. Not terribly familiar with Forgotten Realms, but decent with D&D.
@DisguisedDemonSo, for the rankings... Should we keep those limited to heterosexual pairings or could our arranged marriages be with anyone? The ICheck seemed to imply the former, but it would definitely affect my choices.
Yeah, thanks. There was something very off about the contrast between the blue and this background.
@Cold HandsWould it be possible for you to change your CS font color? I can't read the bulk of it without getting a headache.
Name: Aeola Ithilwen


Race: Elf (Possible elemental ancestry)
Gender: Female
Appearance: Exceedingly slim, with pale skin, white hair and grey-blue eyes. Looks like she might literally blow away in a stiff breeze.
"It's just how I am. I forget to eat sometimes."

Class: Sorceress
Job: Wandering enchanter
Weapon of choice: Lightning magic, or an oak staff inlaid with Elven text in copper
"It's an old prayer, to call the rain. The copper is to catch the lightning it brings."

Personality: Aeola seems to be halfway in a dream most of the time. Unless something demands her focus, she drifts off into thought. When something does catch her interest, however, she proves to be very lively and quick-witted.
"Hm? I was watching the clouds. There's something about the way the moon lights them up."

Background: "There's nothing there I care to tell. I've wandered the roads and forest paths for centuries now, and I see no reason to stop."

Other information: Aeola keeps a screech owl named Palantiriel ("Pala" for short) as a pet/ traveling companion.

Katya Chekhova/"Kat Crisis"




Gender: Female
Age: 22

Personality: Her cynical, snarky exterior hides a girl who really does want to leave a mark on the world through some combination of music and activism. She tries to keep a cool head, but is actually incredibly quick to anger and slow to cool down, particularly if someone hurts her emotionally. She's gotten herself in deep trouble more times than she cares to remember, but also developed some skills to get herself out of it.

Appearance: Slim and darkly pretty, dyed black hair and piercing blue eyes. Literally all her clothes are black, and she has piercings in pretty much every area imaginable.

Occupation: Singer/guitarist for "Social Transgression," a permanently touring punk-metal band.

Biography: Katya fell in with "the wrong crowd" at birth. Raised by Russian immigrants in the poorest neighborhood in her city, Katya learned at an early age that the world is a harsh place. Years of bullying and, later, trouble with the law only reinforced that image. Rather than spend her life working hard for no reward, she dropped out of high school, found some people who felt the same way about the state of the world, and formed a band so they could tell people about the way of the world at approximately 200 decibels.

Skills:
- Guitar: Mainly speed metal, but she can play some surprisingly emotional pieces inspired by her own feelings..
- Vocals: Most of her songs involve more shouting than singing, but she can sing.
- Electronics: Her band doesn't have the money for sound guys, lighting, or roadies, so Katya handles the brunt of the tech work herself.
- Brawling: Yes, she weighs less than 120 pounds. Yes, she can still plant a steel-toed boot where it hurts.
- Breath Control: When your best song involves an expletive being screamed for 20 seconds straight, breathing exercises are not optional.
- Verbal Manipulation: Katya has a way of making other people just as emotional as she is, whether riling someone up or swaying their opinion.
- Lip Reading: It's about the only way she can communicate after a show.
@DawnI went ahead and pulled the real-world locations.
@DisguisedDemonI'm on EST, but I tend to stay up pretty late.
Alright, here's the basic character sheet. I ended up writing it the way my character would have, with explanations for the skills.

Personality
Lili is a girl with two distinct personas: One that she shows to the kingdom at large and one she keeps between herself and her most trusted friends.

In public, Lili is a flawlessly trained diplomat and social butterfly, mixing easily with people from all nations and walks of life. She uses her voice both to charm new acquaintances and to command the attention of entire rooms through the power of song. The only inconsistency in her "perfect" demeanor lies in her love of luring others into making conversational faux pas, or revealing their secrets.

In private, however, Lili could easily be mistaken for a military recruit. She spends much of her free time studying military history and strategy, or practicing with longsword and bow. She resents being unable to hone her martial prowess more openly, but channels her frustration into training rather than challenging the status quo.

History:
Lili was born into a minor noble family, flush with gold but poor in influence. Both her father, Duke Giraud Adelin, and her mother, Duchess Jacqueline Adelin, were relentless in their pursuit of a better position within Freyea's nobility. To this end, they groomed Lili for court life from the moment of her birth, the day of which saw truly legendary festivities funded by the proud parents.

While she was provided with the best upbringing money could buy, Lili was more interested in tales of knights and heroism than those of courtly romance. She made a habit of slipping away from her governess to play at combat with the servant children on an almost daily basis. Her parents discouraged such behavior with punishments of ever-increasing severity, but it did little to dissuade the strong-willed young lady.

As soon as she turned 12, Lili's parents sent her to live in the royal palace as a handmaiden, where she mastered the arts of socialization. She never gave up her more martially inclined pursuits, however, often disguising herself as a boy to attend swordplay lessons and watching the castle's many knights at every opportunity.

About a week after her 15th birthday, Lili's parents were both taken by fever, passing dukedom to her uncle Alphonse until Lili found a suitable husband.
