Okay. Guess Spencer will be trying to get a boyfriend.
Well, it's either way for me.
Name: The First of the House of Sunfire (to address him, call Esquire Sunfire. His former name is Lucian.)

Race: Normal Human (Unaffected by Aceteria)

Age: 15

Status/Role: Strategist / Tactician

Gender: Male

Appearance:
Esquire Sunfire is about 1.62 metres tall.


History: The House of Sunfire is a famous dynasty that has served as guardians for Gainsborough for even longer than the appearance of Aceteria. However, the appearance of Aceteria has driven the House of Sunfire into pieces.

Lucian had never expected to take on the title as The First of the House of Sunfire, designating him as heir to their name. In fact, he was 6th in line to the title, and therefore spent most of his time in books rather than training for war. However, the 5 brothers and sisters before his name would fall victim to Aceteria's corruption, whether they died at the hands of monsters or became them. (He does not remember when or how they turned/died) Only his older sister by 3 years, Aqua, survived the corruption of Aceteria with enough of her mind intact.

When he took on the title of The First, Esquire Sunfire would overrule his father's decision to kill Aqua. He believed that Aqua could control herself, and the strange new thoughts that came with a monstrous new body. He asked for 10 years to prove it, and his father accepted the decision. Esquire Sunfire would bring Aqua around the world, relying on her strength to protect the world from monsters and trying his best to make sure she had complete control of herself.

Personality: Esquire Sunfire has the strange quality of both being a military strategist and being naive and trusting. Sunfire loves the world for what it sees are its positive qualities, and believes that everyone has a chance to do good, even if they have to be persuaded/convinced/bribed to do so. He would protect the weak, clothe the sick and heal the poor if he could. He is the McCoy of the group. He will stand fast where everyone else has given up.

Weaknesses: Sunfire will never give up on lost causes unless physically removed from the scene. He has the sense of honour that would get him killed if not for his sister's presence. He's also very unfit for physical combat, as compared to supers or even normals. If injured, he has a tendency to cry. He can also be described as being 'too clever by half', believing his natural intelligence makes him a better person morally, though all he would do to judge the morals of others is to chastise them for giving up too quickly. (He doesn't lecture them.)

Weapons: None.

Abilities: Sharp as a tack, Sunfire is quick to notice and analyse things. If given command of anything, Sunfire will perform competently, though his command may be a little too timid so as to preserve his forces.
Name: Aqua Sunfire

Race: Super Organism (Severely affected by Aceteria)

Age: 18

Status/Role: Brute / Front-Liner

Gender: Female

Appearance: Aqua is about 2 metres tall. Due to her hard scales, she wears only a white T-shirt and black pants, relying on her natural armour to protect herself.


History: Aqua was a typical nobleman's daughter before her mutation. The 5th child of Lord Sunfire and his only daughter, she was to be wed with a handsome man from the House of Sandhurst. However, during a picnic with all her 5 brothers, she and 2 of her other brothers began to turn. Though 4 of her brothers would either be torn apart or lose their minds, she would maintain enough coherence of thought to protect Lucian and kill all her mutated brothers.

Lucian, while barely remembering the incident, probably had it in the depths of his repressed memories when he spoke out so forcefully, so in favour of keeping his sister alive and around.

Personality: Aqua's personality is hard to discern to outsiders besides being surly and quiet. She finds it easier to growl than to talk in her new form, so she typically growls to make a point and only speaks when she really needs to. (Esquire Sunfire can figure out what she means when she growls most of the time.) She cares for her brother alot, and would defend him or advise him when she thinks he's making a mistake. Aqua, unlike her brother, is highly cynical and believes that the only way to guarantee good behaviour from others is showing dominance. She gets angry rather easily, though not at things like being called a monster. (She gets upset when someone insults her brother, though she gets quite annoyed as well when her brother does something she considers stupid.)

Weaknesses: Aqua can only speak one syllable at a time, in noises that both sound like growls and words that befits a beast rather than a human girl. She eats a lot, and is wholly carnivorous. She also gets distracted whenever Esquire Sunfire's safety is threatened. Though she has 4 eyes, she sees only in black and white.

Abilities: Hard scales, natural weapons, bulk and muscular speed. She's highly skilled in her own natural weaponry, having cut down monsters twice her size. She also has 4 eyes.

Misc: She calls her brother "Lu".

Blank.
Name: Lilias 'Gale' Parker Barrow

Age: 24

Appearance: Gale is about 1.76 metres tall. She is about 68 kg.


History: The Republic of Port Tuscan, an overseas republic with grand designs and dreams greater than itself, had always looked upon the Empire of Francia with envy during the Empire's prosperous times, and thought it could seize territory for virtually no cost during its time of struggle and chaos. Gale, attached to the first expeditionary force as a supporting gunner and machinist, saw her comrades annihilated by a technologically inferior (but still pretty damn tough) detachment of heavy cavalry. That was 4 years ago.

Herself the daughter of a local sheriff in town of Gald, Gale ran away from home to join the army (disguised as a man) so that she could avoid the boring homemaker life. (She took on the name Gale after a local bank robber.) . It was a decent life, until she was sent overseas to invade Francia. When her comrades failed, she deserted.

Deciding to make for herself a new life in Francia, she took on work as a mercenary.

Skills:
Her position in the army of Port Tuscan essentially meant that she was in charge of the management and procurement of ammunition. While ammo technically is produced by craftsmen back home with machinery, Gale has magical powers of her own. Magic itself is limited to those who were born with the talent, though the Republic of Port Tuscan does not control magic users simply because its just so rare no one really thought about it in Port Tuscan.

Gale uses her skills to make ammunition when no available sources are evident in Francia. She requires metal and her own energy to do so, but lead usually works better.

Gale is a very competent gunman, though she admits that longbowmen are scarier and perhaps more effective since they can fire in volleys and arcs. In melee combat, her skills are average. Very average. It's better that she shoots.

Misc:

Her revolver has 5 shots. She cannot speed-load.

She uses a cavalry sword (that she stole off a knight) in melee combat.
Era of 5 Emperors

Emperor Phillip III (578 - 609 Oct): The last emperor to rule more than 1 year. Phillip III was unable to prevent the many petty kingdoms around him from declaring their independence. When the kingdom of Valois and the kingdom of Orleans declared their independence in the year 603, Phillip personally led the armies against them, but to no avail. As more kingdoms declared their independence as well, the Emperor was unable to resolve their rebelliousness, even after 6 years, he was overthrown in a coup by General Francis. Francis then installed himself as Emperor.

Emperor Francis (609 Oct - 610 Jan): Francis tried to change the policies of the empire, allowing mages their own independence in the empire's army rather than subjugating them to a non-magical handler. However, another general by the name of Johann would be outraged by this. He would launch his own coup, and install himself.

Emperor Johann (610 Jan - 610 Jul): Johann reversed the reforms Francis instated. As a compromise with the army commanders that sought more independence, Johann allowed them to decide their own courses of action so long as they vowed to protect the empire. This worked as well as you thought it would. Johann was killed in a palace coup by General Jonathan, one of those army commanders that really lusted for power.

Emperor Jonathan (610 Jul - 611 Jun): Ironically one of the longer lasting emperors, Jonathan was a tyrant to the core. The only thing really keeping Jonathan in power was that despite his own greed, his military skill was without compare. He crushed 3 of the kingdoms and put its people to the sword. He would be assassinated by a palace eunuch by the name of Karl. Karl installed General Guy as emperor. Guy showed his appreciation to Karl by having him executed for treason.

Emperor Guy (611 Jun - 612 Mar): More of an administrator than a commander, Guy managed to politick his way into reuniting some parts of the old empire back. However, his 'peace before war' views did not sit well with some of the generals. General Godwin would act upon these thoughts, killing Emperor Guy and placing himself as Emperor.

Emperor Godwin: (612 Apr -): Taking the throne just a month ago, Godwin has sought the annihilation of all the petty kingdoms. He has reinstituted mages into the Imperial Army, but unlike Emperor Francis, he has subjugated them to tighter leashes.

His utter dedication to war has made the kingdoms fight in a true struggle for their survival, but everything else in Francia has gone to shit. Bandits rule the roads when no armies are marching past. Goblins have become bolder and have begun attacking towns. And there are worse things to fear than Emperor Godwin's wrath.

I'm glad the character worked out.
Life for mercenaries is brutal and short.
Orpheus is a fop that lives in the moment. But I usually lie about some things on the CS. WitchChild already knows what I'm lying about.
Well, Nagi doesn't understand English specifically. But she knows what it is supposed to sound like.
