  Before the storm? He is the calm while it rages around him and he smiles the whole time. He lives life with a quick wit and a laugh to inflame the heart with joy. He enjoys life, drink, women and carousing about to be had. But when it comes to business he is that and he gets his job done and likes to think he can be count on for anything that is needed by friends or family.

• Richard Wyrmguard  + (Behind that seemingly martial, knightly ex …
  Behind that seemingly martial, knightly exterior is a mind like a steel trap. Richard has always been more of an observer. He takes things in, processes things, and then acts. As a result, he watches his words and can be seen as gruff and rough around the edges, but he means well, having seen and lived through many consequences for acting too hastily. As the eldest of the cadet branch of the Wyrmguards, knightly duty, filial piety, and loyalty to family has been ingrained in him, and he will do whatever he can to protect his family and his people. It's one of the reasons why he remains mostly guarded at times, but once his guard has fallen and he considers someone trustworthy, then that person as a valuable friend and ally for life.

  Behtuk's silence is often mistaken for ignorance, even stupidity, an impression he does not actively seek to dispel. He knows that his appearance leads to many assumptions about him. Rather than fight these miscconceptionsm, he allows them to guide him to those who will look past their prejudices and see the man underneath. Nevertheless, he rarely speaks in elaborate sentences, prefering to limit his words and let his deeds and his craft speak for him.

• Blacktongue Artiglio  + (Being a jester wasn't Blacktongue's first …
  Being a jester wasn't Blacktongue's first choice, but he always had a playful spirit, keeping his brother and nephew in good humors. He views his position as one of honor, being trusted by the family to speak his mind in an entertaining fashion with only a slim chance he'll be executed for it? It's like a dream come true. The only care he takes is to not bring shame on the Velenosa family, or take a jest too far. He didn't spend years practically killing himself to mock them now in a way that would cause true injury. His general mood tends to be one of hope and cheer, though, should anyone anger him, or harm his family, blood and fealty, he can be biting, sarcastic, and downright cruel. He tends to live each day as if it were his last, mostly out of habit from his days when that was potentially his fate every meal.

• Jephray Pike  + (Being drowned and hung by your loved ones …
  Being drowned and hung by your loved ones does change your perspective. A sharp and biting wit and gallows humor make him awkward in social functions. But Jeph's loyalty cannot be challenged he holds true to house Thrax as a loyal captain and house knight. Though his cousin rules from Deep Eddy, its Jeph's belief that his family died with his father and it reflects in how he treats suspected traitors. His rage builds like a hurricane, and he relishes it once stoked to ire. To friends he is kind even if crass. To his men he is a fine Captain. To his enemies, he is a Hurricane
  Captain. To his enemies, he is a Hurricane)
• Auriela Malvici  + (Being further from the Malvici branch line …
  Being further from the Malvici branch lines, Auriela has a point to prove and is willing to make what she wants - happen. A voice to be reckoned with, clicks and harsh tones are not rare from her when needed but, also, there is still that refined education she received. That training, that understanding that sometimes a soft smile, a secretive glance across the table, achieves a lot in Lycene politics. Believing she is a cut above the rest, but not given the chance, now she takes when she can and grips onto it with both hands.

  Being on the level of local legends and myths despite your own reservations can lead one to develop a most interesting assortment of traits. Ambivalent to the ways of the nobility and her own reputation, Cassiopeia has done her best to redeem herself in the eyes of her peers as a wanderer with no sense of responsibility. Her intellect is hard to rival and many times she walks circles around those who try verbally sparring with her or otherwise attempting to impress or overawe. She is sensible and gracious despite her initial reluctance to engage in social environments. Her balance of humor, wit, charisma, approachability and attentiveness all seem quite counter to the expected shallowness that most come to expect of a woman so renowned which lead many to describe her as magnetic.

• Belladonna Pravus  + (Belladonna knows how easily it would be fo …
  Belladonna knows how easily it would be for her to be a truly wicked woman. Many of the city-states in the Lyceum tend toward cruel and insidious plots, sacrificing anything and everything for power. Belladonna is every bit as capable to play the same cutthroat games, and play them well, but has come to fear just how much she enjoys them. She loved her father, and his good heart very much, even as she saw how it destroyed him. It makes her determined, shrewd, and extremely capable of manipulative intrigue but she is well aware that ruthless maneuvers undermines her father's legacy and the hopes he cherished that she would follow him as an honorable, kindhearted ruler. For her enemies, she represents a contradiction of a dangerously charming woman that can be a deadly, conniving adversary yet remains capable of confounding acts of generosity and compassion that leaves opponents bemused on what could possibly be her hidden motive. It's more simple than that, really. She wants to be a good woman, strong and powerful, but she will stop at nothing to avoid the mistakes of her father.

• Alecto Charon  + (Beneath an elegant and handsome exterior l …
  Beneath an elegant and handsome exterior lurks an academic with a bit of a cowardly streak. Wartime has taken its toll on Alecto's nerves, amplifying a once-abated squirreliness that plagued him in boyhood and now manifesting in frequent hand-wringing and fidgets. Entirely endearing if not sometimes downright comedic, his worrisome nature and the associated preparedness that comes along with it have lead to Alecto being a brilliant improvisor when problems actually do arise. As a result, he has routinely found himself promoted to positions he doesn't feel the least bit qualified for, even if the irrationality of some of his more imaginative concerns have given others reason to doubt his intuition in the past. Although Alecto's true motivations are generally kept private, it can be said that he values his relationships over his achievements, and when something threatens someone he cares about, he has been known to use all the means at his disposal to extinguish that threat.. barring putting himself in actual physical danger, of course! Hahaha! He is gentle and good when his environment allows, but he does recognize that these virtues aren't always compatible with solving certain problems, and he does fancy himself a problem solver.
  nd he does fancy himself a problem solver.)
• Benedetto Velenosa  + (Benedetto is lively, charming, and vibrant …
  Benedetto is lively, charming, and vibrant. He can take this to obnoxious extremes. Witty, irrepressible and irresponsible, Benedetto is a master of deflection: he deflects insults, he deflects undue seriousness, he deflects unearned compliments. Slithering out of trouble is probably his chiefest accomplishment. He'd be the first to tell you that fun is his primary drive. Thirsty for gossip, delighted by social gatherings and generally an incredible showoff, he is quick to defend his family and friends with a bravura energy that rarely extends to self-protection.
  gy that rarely extends to self-protection.)
• Benedict Ferro  + (Benedict's personality could be considered …
  Benedict's personality could be considered a stick in the mud sometimes. Work and bettering himself be it knowledge or strength of some kind will be most of the time taken over 'fun' activities, with the occasional exception when the mood strikes him. He is long to anger, and he does not forget what people say or do very quickly. He is not one to hold grudges, but no tresspass against him or anyone he cares about will be quickly forgotten.
  he cares about will be quickly forgotten.)
• Benjamin Carver  + (Benjamin is a passionate, and passionately …
  Benjamin is a passionate, and passionately irreverent, rake with a tongue of silver and honey. He is seemingly set to remind the world not to take itself too seriously. It makes for a unique bedside manner while he's amputating gangrenous limbs, or merely colorful conversation for those who come in for the equally dire shave and trim. New experiences, for the better or the worse, are to be sought, appreciated, and learned from. He'll readily trade in stories and riddles, and rarely turns down a gamble. He takes great pleasure in indulging others as much as himself, frequently in the form of culinary delectables he's found and learned to recreate throughout his travels.

• Benvolio Corvini  + (Benvolio is alternatively ruthless and laz …
  Benvolio is alternatively ruthless and lazy. While not ambitious, and content to permit his elder brothers and sisters to dictate the course of family affairs, he is a loyal and effective footsoldier. He is hedonistic and enjoys the trappings of wealth, including bright fashionable clothes, shiny new weapons, or fine horses.

  Berto is warm and kind, with a genuinely amiable demeanor. Sure, he's definitely about the money now and again, but it's rare that he's going to go out of his way to gouge people. Given his quick and easy sense of humor, he's almost always laughing and smiling. He's also pretty drunk most of the time.

• Maja Darling  + (Best friend. Confidant. Confessor. To be i …
  Best friend. Confidant. Confessor. To be in Maja's company is to often feel completely comfortable. She's a charming woman and works hard to make people feel at ease. She's sweet. She's warm. She's friendly. She can even be goofy at times. When someone needs to unburden their worries, it feels like their secrets will be safe with her. When someone needs a hug, her arms are there to comfort. So despite the rumors about her unfortunate beginning, many are happy to pass along favors and information because she is just .. so .. darn .. nice. However, every once in a while, it all feels carefully .. crafted. In rare moments, when she thinks no one is looking, the warmth falls away and she is simply blank. She will fall back into her thoughts and feelings while her body appears to be a shell that she simply leaves behind for a spell. What exists in this inner world of hers? That is harder to discern.

  Bethany has a mind like a steel trap, capable of understanding a situation before it fully unfolds. Being curious is her first nature, so this is partly a defense mechanism she's developed to avoid getting in trouble. Her skills in planning and accounting are noteworthy, which makes her a good fit for her career path, and trusted by her merchant father when it comes to managing her finances. While on the surface she is affable, Bethany tends to establish emotional boundaries between herself and her friends and acquaintances. She fears being hurt and feels safe only when she has control of the relationship.

• Kasinopi none  + (Better moving than standing, but scanning …
  Better moving than standing, but scanning than watching, Kasinopi is a woman of few pauses. Despite her energetic nature there is a youthful shyness in larger crowds and around abrasive personalities. She's quick to intrigue and slow to mistrust, but easy to offend which isn't terribly hard to spot with her expressive nature. It's generally easy to pickup that the common girl has a fancy for the finer things, especially rare or unique things. She might not go 'oooo' but her widening eyes have a hungry excitement when presented with luxury.

• Bjorn Grimhall  + (Bjorn is a man shaped by his personal trag …
  Bjorn is a man shaped by his personal tragedies. A life of watching emotions be the downfall of men and women he's loved has changed him into a soldier of crisp professionalism. Calm, often cool and aloof, his demeanor often gives a false indication of a man completely detached by the consequences of his work, but nothing could be further from the truth. He embraces what he's need to become to ever prevent anyone else from feeling the brutal losses that still haunt him. When not in a professional setting, the ice thaws, but even then he is the sort to only drink towards moderation. Someone has to keep their head about them, after all.

• Blair Elricks  + (Blair is a friendly, honest sort of girl. …
  Blair is a friendly, honest sort of girl. Always trying to do her best to impress her family and superiors. She sometimes seems to zone out. She claims this is because the spirits are speaking with her. Though it could just be an oddity. She thrives in the midst of combat though, loving to spar and even true battles. She is most at home on the battlefield.

• Leopold Crownsworn  + (Boisterous. Wild. Shameless. Crazy. All …
  Boisterous. Wild. Shameless. Crazy. All of these words havebeen used to describe Leopold with the latter selections being used more frequently. Leopold radiates with pride and self-assurance. He is convivial and gregarious, making friends and forming bonds easily, but many know that just because he is a friend doesn't mean he won't pummel someone bloody for little reason. Leopold just enjoys living life to its fullest, meaning he likes hard drinking, hard fighting, and easy women. He isn't going to astound anyone with his deep thinking and his charisma comes from his simple and friendly demeanor rather than great skill at charm; however, few would argue that Leopold won't make an impression on anyone who meets him.

  Bold and brash, with a tendency towards good cheer for those that catch her for a drink or a chat at the well. She does, however, prefer solitude over company, with those around her describing the woman as a private individual. Which is, as one local gossip has claimed to have overheard "just the way she likes it."

• Ahven Granger  + (Bold to the point of brashness, Ahven's au …
  Bold to the point of brashness, Ahven's audacity is both the impetus that propels her through life, and her greatest hindrance. She wants to be a hero, and sometimes this desire puts her at odds with her duties...as well as how headstrong and proud she is. Once earned, her loyalty is fierce and fervent, but that doesn't mean she is immovable. For all her strong opinions, she readily admits when she is proven wrong, and changes her views accordingly.

  Bold words can be more dangerous than anything for a man without a castle to hide behind, a fact that Atreyan has known since youth. For that reason, he has always worked hard to moderate his temperament and is able to weather a storm of insults like a armored knight beneath swings of a sword. While more than equipped to offer verbal ripostes of his own, he strives to maintain his decorum. That is not to say he has never drawn blood with a phrase, but when he did, it was with the utmost understanding of the consequences. And a sureness that he could withstand the reply.

  Bold, and fearless, both are the first things about her that most would pick up on. She's the first to leap into a situation, no matter the risk. But there are plenty of other things about her that might be more subtle in comparison to her rough-and-tumble personality. She's hard-working, cares about her family, and has a playful streak that sometimes can turn a little more puckish when she's taken to drinking. Sometimes she's a bit too deep into the drink and can be inclined towards taking things too far by picking fights, or calling for duels, but nothing that ever lasts past the next days sobriety.

  Bold, brash, and audacious. Avita has never been a person that's afraid to share her opinion, it's just that she usually does it in such a way that her true intentions or feelings on the matter are often terribly difficult to ascertain. A master of the complisult, she has a way of saying the most horrendous things and making it sound like the sweetest of sentiments. Larger than life, an unrepentant hedonist at heart, the embodiment of dignified depravity, and ever so proud of it. She will live this life, damnit, and she'll leave nothing on the table but the sullied scraps. Sure, this will probably inevitably lead to a most spectacular, and likely messy end, but she's cool with it.

  Books are Pepper's number one friends and while they can never replace her family she may very well feel they are easier to engage.

  Born into the noble house of Nightgold, but without direct inheritance, Sigurd has been groomed from birth for duty and (hopefully) to eventually lead Nadia's armies in the field. He is well aware and loyal to obligations, but prefers, when possible, to be alone in the wilderness with a loyal dog or wolf. He is outwardly very refined and polite, while still maintaining the tough, occasionally-fierce independence of his ancestry, equally at home at a noble Ball as in a tavern drinking his weight in drink.

• Braden Laurent  + (Braden is generally rather carefree, enjoy …
  Braden is generally rather carefree, enjoying being kind of laid back, that is, until he needs to be serious. Usually occuring when someone is in danger. He see's it as his job to keep his friends and family safe. His desire to protect does not stop there. He would lay down his life to keep just about anyone alive. He takes his training seriously, but on his off time he is quick to be a little snarky and a bit of a trouble maker.

  Braith is an animated, lively young woman, full of vim and vigor. Her spirit rarely flags. She tells stories and puts them to music; she yearns for the limelight and owns it with the full power of her panache whenever she can. She loves learning about new things and trying to figure out how to rhyme them. She falls in love easily and often, bright with passion and full of fire; in the wake of her amorous adventures, she tends to castigate her former lovers in hilarious and sometimes ribald song. Witty and sassy, Braith pretends that she isn't at all insecure or lonely, but it's a pretense that doesn't always hold up.

  Brass is just full of personality! Funny and sarcastic without the meanspiritedness that would make him truly snarky, he can't quite conceal his mostly good heart, even if his brash enthusiasm sometimes causes him to make rash (and unkind) decisions. See, he's cocky, and arrogant, and even if it started as a way to conceal his gooey, uncertain, vulnerable insides...after centuries, it stuck.

• Raziel Bisland  + (Brave, dutiful, determined, generous, unyi …
  Brave, dutiful, determined, generous, unyielding, these traits all described the man Raziel once was. The scion of Bisland, later a member of the King's Own, he was a good man, an honourable man. His devotion to the Gods was outmatched only by his loyalty to the Crown and the Compact, and had he not become a member of the King's Own, he very well could have followed the path of Templar instead. Yet the man he was has long perished, burnt away in the flames. What softness there was to temper the strength of mind and soul have turned to ash, leaving behind cynicism and bitterness combined with that same unyielding will and determination. Dutifulness and bravery have likewise been changed, wielding not sword into darkness, but the grim light of truth to dispel comforting lies and delusions. Even outside of his work, he takes satisfaction in exposing others to their own contradictions, confronting them on their deeply held convictions, as Inquisitor and Mirrormask both. His friends are few, yet those that are have all been tested by the man's sharp tongue and intellect and, once found worthy, are offered genuine respect in turn. Raziel is a complicated man, with contradictions running deeper than the eye can see, made all the more confusing by the man's intent.

  Braxas loves nothing quite so much as his freedom. He goes where he wants and does what he wants, he doesn't care what people think of him. He can be a bit mean or abrasive at times, he has a silver tongue but sometimes it just...turns off. Braxas is the kind of bard parents warn thier children to avoid. But just because he is selfish and a loner at heart doesn't mean he lacks talent.

• Bree Harthall  + (Bree's family always said that ever since …
  Bree's family always said that ever since she was born the sun was just a little bit dimmer, because it gave part of its light to Bree. She has always been addicted to stories, and becoming the hero of those stories. She is radiance and generally the most optimistic person in the room. It is hard to dim her mood. It is extremely difficult to take away from her jubilance. Bree is extremely talented at finding the silver lining in things. And also extremely good at shrugging things off. If people don't like her upbeat attitude, she is rarely offended. She is aware that she is somewhat naive that her bright and excitable nature could lead some to take advantage of her... But she's pretty sure that won't happen! Why would people do that when you're nice to them! She takes everything about Gild VERY seriously, and is a firm believer that all problems in the world can either be stabbed to death with her blade, or hugged to death. But not really death. Just until it's brought around. Even with her upbeat attitude, she's still a soldier. So at times she can be slightly offputting when she's being so cheery after she's just felled an enemy of the compact, blood still on her blade.

  Breidaia has a booming, wide personality that takes the world by the horns. Not for her the days of living quietly at the fireside, shrinking away from the plate full of delicious possibilities. She has gained refinement over the years, but that hasn't dulled her enthusiasm more than a shade. The expectations to pony up and behave well with a crew rather than acting the freewheeling hellion still have their effect. Beneath the polite graces, a veneer only skin deep, lies the vigorous fire that will sail to unknown shores and go where others might fear to sail or tread. She has a thorough appreciation of risk and an appetite for adventure. But Breidaia too is the leader and mother hen over those under her charge, and she constantly takes measures to assure their safety. She isn't reckless or irresponsible, but an irrepressible force no more contained than the sea.

• Brianna Halfshav  + (Brianna never quite settled into the role …
  Brianna never quite settled into the role of a proper lady. She is courteous, graceful, demure when needs be, and knows all the steps of the courtly dance, but it's all practice, rather than natural ability. She loves to laugh at raunchy humor, and dance a bawdy dance. She loves living in Arx, because it lets her dress in the nigh-scandalous fashions of the Lyceum - which show more skin than is practical in the cold North. She's rarely inappropriate and never so by intention, but she loves how the Velenosa skirt that line, and the rich sparkles of the Grayson mines. She can be vain, cruel, and terrible when she needs to be, but mostly she simply wants to experience life like few can. She made for warfare and the adventures that go with it, and she makes her own adventures in the wilds of the city life. Little ignite the wild fury she feels like the Shav that terrorize her homeland, and she becomes completely irrational when talk turns to them and their ilk.

  Bright and curious, Ysabel holds a vivacious tenacity to discover things -- how people work, how the think, what sort of customs do they have in the North about this and that. How do ships work? Both inclined to practical things and fantastical stories, Ysabel knows that stones have to be turned and moved in order to understand the bigger picture. Occasionally this makes her ramble on about this or that, but she is wise enough to know to find the people that accept that sort of thing, rather than force herself on the disinclined for intellectual pursuits. Despite her compulsions to learn, she understand, perhaps better than most, that patience often leads to the greatest discoveries. She does not see knowledge as something to be gained to simply have, but to fit the pieces into a larger picture, to reveal to the world what beauty and rapture it contains.

• Korka Glynn  + (Bright spontaneity and intuitive wit lurk …
  Bright spontaneity and intuitive wit lurk behind the shield of a default reserve that she loosens at will. Restless and inclined to act rather than plan, Korka finds that the seat of the pants approach lends her adrenaline that heightens her native resourcefulness, which is already one of her strongest assets. Charm and humor are easily linked for her, and ready tools that she can bring to bear in most social situations, but rarely does surprise get the better of her and leave her unguarded.

  Bright, bubbly and energetic are words often used to describe this young, vibrant woman. Often feigning dramatics to put on a good show and incite laughter in others, especially when chasing her more lush tendencies. Though sometimes when alone she lets her mask fall away and show off her true, genuine self.

• Adalyn Clement  + (Bright, cheery and desperate for a crowd. …
  Bright, cheery and desperate for a crowd. Adalyn loves fighting with her swords as much as she loves telling stories about the tale afterwards. There's almost no limit to the kind of grandiose showboating that she's inclined towards. Her journey on horseback from Artshall to Arx in particular is full of wild stories of the people (and creatures, if you would believe her) that she met along the way. Treasures found! Damsels saved! Maybe even some princes saved, wink wink. Many would say this isn't very Oathlander of her and some would even say she's making these things up. And she might be, it's hard to tell. She's so enthusiastic about it all. She's the first to jump in to champion others in honor duels, eager to display how quick and light she is on her feet. How she can be the one to get in the first blood. She's also the first to volunteer herself for crazy expeditions and adventures, the more dangerous, the better. It's possible that this is all a bid to prove herself or perhaps she's just an adrenaline junky that loves the rush. Either way, if you're looking for a companion on the road, pick Adalyn. Or she'll just come along anyway, how would you stop her?

  Brigida has lived through it, whatever it is. Loss, death, war, love, tragedy, dreams dying aborning, dreams awakening: she's been there. She knows. Her wisdom is cut with no little vinegar. She is fierce and bold behind an iron propriety that has been cultivated with age, and only occasionally is breached to deliberately shock people. Tough, tough-minded, and without compunction about doing what needs done, she is socially extremely perceptive, clever, and can be as manipulative as an entire league of grandmothers working in concert.

  Briseis is very much the product of her dual heritage. From her Oathlander father, she learned determination, honor, diligence, fidelity. From her Northerner mother, she learned wit, stubbornness, confidence, and an overabundance of, for lack of a better word, sass. Briseis sparkles: not just with the warmth of an extrovert who enjoys people, but with the keen, determined insight of a sharp mind. Her manner is often light and friendly, even bubbly and effusive at times, but she has a fiercely tempered core of steel to her that comes out in defense of her family, those close to her, and her own ideals and convictions. The fact that her occasional bursts of righteous indignation can sometimes be a bit comical due to her smaller stature and youthful appearance is a continual frustration for her, but her tongue can be so sharp at those moments that people rarely laugh for long.

  Brogan is larger than life: big, roaring laughter, a lusty temperament, and the wild abandonment of a man who refuses to sink into gloom or sadness. When the going gets tough, Brogan finds a new way to go. In the past, when doom and depression threatened him, he embraced an entirely new life philosophy to avoid it. He is his own unique kind of adaptable. He loves drinking, fighting, smashing tables, gambling, screwing, dancing, singing, throwing people into walls, wrestling bears -- well, okay, that was one time -- and generally, being an uproarious and outrageous fellow. There are depths to Brogan and to his passions, but he spends most of his time doing his damnedest to just be one hell of a guy.

  Brother Skrigg's tone and mannerisms clash against his haggard and rugged appearance. When he speaks he booms with joy. When he moves it is with the flow of a careless dancer. His words are as honeyed as his meads and his step is often affected by the latter. Whether sober or intoxicated, the priest can always be seen marveling in the present and doing his best to ensure his flock - or even the random passerby, are all reminded to be thankful for their small fortunes in the day.

  Bruce was a rowdy child. Despite his rigorous training and studies, he was a big personality, always quick to laugh and have fun. Ambitious, driven, focused. He was an accomplished squire, a talented horseman and a skilled swordsman. The Tragedy and abrupt death of his parents shook him, but he braved it. Shrugged it off, smiled and inspired confidence in his family and friends. He was studious, pious, courageous, exceptionally big and strong. Everything a family could ask for in a young knight. When he rode off to fight for months at a time in the Silent War, Gyre War, or in the countless campaigns against hostile abandoned, it slowly steeled his resolve. He proved himself time and time again in fiery combat. He survived. But it changed him. He became more quiet, reserved, stoic. The smiles came farther and fewer between. After High Hill, Bruce never returned to his former self. He's grizzled, stern, a bit distant. While there's still life to the veteran knight, it takes time to bring it out.
