• Duarte Amedeo  + (Charming, affable, with a disarming manner …
  Charming, affable, with a disarming manner, infectious humor, and quick wit, very few individuals realize how much danger they are in while speaking with Duarte Amedeo. As chief minister of Information and Safety for House Pravus in Setarco, few nobles let alone commoners could rival the man's importance in the Silken City, a fact seldom realized by many of his companions. It's not that Duarte is humble by any stretch- the dangerous and cool confidence in his eyes gives lie to that. He merely knows how much easier it is to get precisely what you want with a kind or clever word... even if it allows one to destroy the person that revealed it. He is in many ways a reflection of Pravus itself- smart, charming, and utterly ruthless.

• Aedin Blackwood  + (Charming, approachable, amiable. Enter Aed …
  Charming, approachable, amiable. Enter Aedin's presence is akin to stepping into the summer sunshine. She has a knack for welcoming people without so much as a word. Her considerable skill for sounding out the tone of a room or a gathering has led some in the Blackwood family to claim she's blessed by intuition. Her sensitivity is considerable -- for not reading a situation right can be a disaster. Smoothing over difficulties demands a certain special knowledge of personalities, and she has the patience to tease out exactly what she needs. Northlanders may have a reputation for short tempers and not tolerating fools, but she doesn't live up to that standard. Her silken words and exquisite manners can usually disarm southerners or Abandoned alike, and once they are willing to deal, then the real work begins. But she suffers no fools behind her smile. Withholding contempt for liars and dishonourable behaviour, she'll do what she must to get the work done, leaving an opening for others to exploit. But much, much better to have others in her debt. And Aedin never forgets one.

• Armand Farshaw  + (Charming, impulsive, passionate, Armand's …
  Charming, impulsive, passionate, Armand's character is a wildly unpredictable one, at odds with the moral principals of the Faith's Orthodox branch that he yet follows with remarkable devotion. Indeed, the man is one of contrasts and extremes, with a dangerous temper as violent and sudden as a storm at sea, while also displaying a true and unshakeable faith in the precepts of the Gods and the Compact, willing and ready to die for their ideals. Suspicious of the worship of Tehom, and yet prone to womanizing and drinking, though rarely to excess. An odd one, certainly, and yet, through it all, possessed with the overriding desire to do good, and fight evil, so that others won't have to.

• Jonathan Fieldstone  + (Cheerful almost to the point of being obno …
  Cheerful almost to the point of being obnoxious, Jonathan is always prone to seeing the brighter side of life on most things, and the last to raise a fist in anger, despite his strength. He is a man of many words, but also thought, listening carefully to what is said before he offers his down-to-earth advice. He has a deep appreciation of hard work, and of his roots in the earth, feeding those around him. Service comes naturally to him, as does a quick joke or an old saying.

• Donaldo Velenosa  + (Cheerful and attentive, if quiet, one minu …
  Cheerful and attentive, if quiet, one minute his mood can also be somehow disinterested, even here in the greatest and most exciting city in all the land. Also quick to smile and laugh, nearly as quick to ask a question or explore a cabinet that isn't his, this is a man with some issues focusing on any one thing if there's something else to fancy within earshot.

• Braelynn Deepwood  + (Cheerful and blithe, Braelynn is most ofte …
  Cheerful and blithe, Braelynn is most often found smiling about something. The world seems full of endless amusement to her, and she is genial of spirit and light of heart. She's an outdoors type, who gets restless if she's cooped up too long, but the peace she finds in the woods keeps her happy. Sometimes her attention drifts, and she'll smile at nothing at all - but mostly she is warm and friendly, a pleasure to be around and quite easygoing.

• Amber Mondegreen  + (Cheerful and softspoken, Amber is a quiet, …
  Cheerful and softspoken, Amber is a quiet, petite woman with an unflinchingly brave and direct view on life and events. She lost her husband, and it hardened her - but not completely. Determined to continue the dream they started together, she is ferocious in the pursuit of the best deal, and is ruthless about her trade agreements. But beneath it all, she really does have that heart of gold. She also remembers gold may be the softest of metals, but it's still a metal, and a heart of gold doesn't mean you have to let people take advantage of you.

• Mahan  + (Cheerful, annoyingly so, genuinely inquisi …
  Cheerful, annoyingly so, genuinely inquisitive and often interested in the lives and tales of others. His outlook on life is terribly pragmatic but he's neither apathetic nor dismissive; he is happy to help but only if it makes sense and his chance of success is relatively high, and even then, if the money is good he might even make an exception. Need a bottle of wine? Sure, he can do that. A rare book? Possibly. Armor? Well, that depends on what kind. Your furniture moved? Probably not. Not often found morose or unhappy in general, his attitude is playful and often to a fault. It's not that he -can't- be serious, he just doesn't think he -needs- to be even in the most dire of circumstance. Not that he's above screaming in terror in running away, laughing is just that much more fun.
  away, laughing is just that much more fun.)
• Cherilo Menada  + (Cherilo is a soft-spoken but enthusiastic …
  Cherilo is a soft-spoken but enthusiastic lover of nature. He's embraced a clear passion: exploring the natural world, and capturing its beauty so as to encourage public appreciation and conservation. Aside from a few short affairs and a some occasional city friends, he mostly keeps to himself - not from introversion but from the curiosity that keeps him moving, exploring, interacting with the wild.

  Christine has one true love: books. That doesn't avoid her being interested in other things. Like people.

  Cigano is the living embodiment of suave. He speaks with a smooth and deep voice that brings comfort to those who have experienced lost. He has a soft spot for children always ensuring that they are taken care of, though he sees some people as less than people based on some incredibly complicated moral code. He has a keen awareness and an air of mysticism to him.

  Cillian grew up learning the ways of the wild. He grew up with a tribe named Weathewood, knowing very little of the compact as he stayed out in the woods with his adopted family and tribe protecting the woods and fighting off monsters to keep his village safe, coming to Arx for the first time he seems very guarded.

• Cirroch Sanna  + (Cirroch has a bullish nature, grounded but …
  Cirroch has a bullish nature, grounded but vital. He has a talent for filling a room merely by entering it, with deep, resonant volume and ready eloquence to the command of his tongue. He can be stubborn, he can be proud, and he can have a temper on him. Nothing infuriates him more than being deceived, unless it is being denied action where he thinks action ought to be took. He has a pragmatist's steadiness behind his grand gestures, though, that helps keep his life running smoothly. There are ways that simplicity defines Cirroch's greatest desires. He loves women who can fight him, whiskey that burns on the way down, fast horses and smart dogs.

  Clara is a curious young woman with a wild side. She loves to be adrenalized, she loves a good fight, a good swim, or a nice climb... whatever gives her the rush that comes with moving her body or taking risks. She also enjoys helping people because while she is curious about death she doesn't feel the need to kill things herself or watch people suffer. She just seeks to understand that grand happening in life that all eventually must meet. What does death mean for those still alive and where do people really go when they die?

  Clarisse has been brought up to help others and the best way she is able to do this as a healer, comforter, and confidant that others can trust. She has worked side by side learning the ways of healing for as long as she can remember, and will work tirelessly to save even those who others believe to be a lost cause.

• Olivando Igniseri  + (Clever and incisive, Olivando is a wit, bu …
  Clever and incisive, Olivando is a wit, but a quiet one. His flair for the dramatic is buried a level beneath a mild reserve. He doesn't need to show off; the pursuit of knowledge is, in itself, something very satisfying for him. Inventive and resourceful with a certain knack for organization, there are few things that lure Olivando's interest like an unsolved mystery. He has an unsurpassable depth of loyalty that, once tapped, might never stop flowing, but the compassion of his heart is carefully guarded behind walls of self-protection, earned by the wisdom of experience.

• Cabrera Godsworn  + (Clever and quick, energetic and vivacious, …
  Clever and quick, energetic and vivacious, Cabrera's is the kind of charm that can be hard to keep up with. His sass could get him in trouble more often if his smile were less winsome, but his engaging humor and bright eyes are welcoming, inviting, encouraging people to join him in the laugh, whatever it happens to be. More a wordsmith than a prankster, he prefers not to punch 'down', and tries to keep a bright, upbeat approach to life and service, encouraging people to embrace life with both arms. Passion is his watchword, service his focus, and life his reward. While he is a serving priest and serving soldier, he's also a devil-may-care punster, ribald roisterer, and stylish man about town. Turn down no opportunity, leave no stone unturned for what curiosity might reveal beneath, and definitely never leave a party without dancing.

  Clover is a young woman of broad smiles and hapless positivity. She's entirely too clumsy but at ease with it. She's full of laughter and bright smiles. Rarely does anything bring her down. Even if she's just ruined another dress, or lost her shoe to a mud puddle-- nothing gets her down.

• Tempest Fuller  + (Cold and aloof, the kind of man who is jus …
  Cold and aloof, the kind of man who is just as easy to condemn as forgive, he is a man who believes that the end justifies the means. Justice is cold, swift, and merciless. This is not to say he doesn't believe in mercy, but the benefit must outweigh the cost, utter practicality in all things. Though passion exists beneath his icy exterior, Tempest rarely shows it to those he does not know well except in the heat of battle, a grinning avenger, his armor and contorted face streaked with blood. Deeply spiritual and superstisious, he might have been a Shaman if it had been his calling, but instead he walked the path of the blade and blood in the name of his own kind of justice. One would do best not to expect lip service from him, almost brutally to the point though he does manage a certain amount of diplomacy if words can be coaxed out of him at all by one he does not know well.

• Cade none  + (Cold and uncaring. These two words couldn' …
  Cold and uncaring. These two words couldn't be any more accurate in describing Cade. Having no experience in truly expressing one's self, Cade comes off as someone who is boring and abrupt, due to this, those who have encountered him once usually steer clear. Not that it matters to him for he does not stay in one place for too long. Despite this, Cade's work ethic is commendable, doing odd jobs in the most efficient ways, earning the respect of his short-term employers.

• Rasteon Masque  + (Cold as the north wind, quiet as the grave …
  Cold as the north wind, quiet as the grave, there is little evidence that Rasteon even possesses the capacity for kindness, forgiveness, or basic human compassion. Possessed of an icy intensity off-putting to all but the most stalwart of souls, some among his village have even gone so far as to doubt he is human at all. In fact, those warriors that have fought beside him swear that he is not. In combat his icy facade falls away and his depthless rage is released upon the world, the hatred for his fellow man coming across so starkly clear that those who have fought at his side often have difficulty meeting his eyes once the battle has concluded. But despite all that, and independent of any reservations those who have met him might have, one shining beacon of virtue does stand out among all of Rasteon's many flaws. He is honestly and truly a man of his word, who's oaths bind him more tightly than any chains. Those who are wise would make note of any promise he makes, for surely he intends to keep it.
  e makes, for surely he intends to keep it.)
• Paloma Thornburn  + (Cold, ravenously driven, and ruthless, Pal …
  Cold, ravenously driven, and ruthless, Paloma's dreams have always lent themselves to violence and sacrifice. But violence and sacrifice toward a greater end. A noble end. The nobler, the better. She's a woman of abstracts who sees most people, including herself, as means, currency to be spent. Small things that can accumulate toward great things, but you can't be too precious about any given silver. She still wants to be the most valuable piece of silver she can be, and that's the King's Own. The only thing that lightens her is that she can apply this chilly resolve to even little things, baking bread, light patrol, a given conversation, and she's clearly doing it to amuse herself and those around her. Playing the part even when it's unnecessary, infusing it with a little wit.
  nnecessary, infusing it with a little wit.)

• Teague Charon  + (Cold. Quiet. Watching the world behind his …
  Cold. Quiet. Watching the world behind his stormy blue eyes. His lips barely moving, a face of cold stone. Down deep, he is a man in conflict with himself as he wishes to connect to the world but not truly understand how one can do so. As he watches others enjoy the world, he finds them weak. At least that is the lie he tells himself. The truth is his jealously at their nature pains him deeply.

• Fidel Charon  + (Colorful and charismatic, Fidel possesses …
  Colorful and charismatic, Fidel possesses a flitty friendliness capable of winning him many supporters. Unfortunately, these positive attributes are not matched by any measure of wisdom or competence. In fact, they most frequently reveal themselves right when he's about to do something incredibly foolish! Error-prone with only a fine-tuned facade in place of true self-confidence, Fidel struggles to reconcile with a delicate personal nature which, upon coming up against a challenge that scares him or that can't be easily overcome, reduces him to bitter (fantastic, nonsensical) diatribes and childlike fits of frustration.

  Coming from the feuding, vicious city-states of Velenosa, Lekan has long been the handy sword-arm hired to deal with 'issues' that arise. He works for coin, for principle, or for his own inscrutable reasons. His gaze is hard, but there is a twisted humor underneath it. He takes delights, but perhaps not in things that people would consider humorous or safe or sane.

• Cufre Harrow  + (Compared to her older sisters, Cufre is mo …
  Compared to her older sisters, Cufre is more reserved. Softer spoken, gentler emotion. A core of molten iron wrapped in a velvet glove, inclined to watch and observe and prepare rather than charge headlong into a situation, she none-the-less has the determination that seems a hallmark of the Harrow line.

• Arta Fatchforth  + (Competitive person who loves racing and he …
  Competitive person who loves racing and her animals. Busy and proud stablemaster of some renown and skill. Fairly optimistic and trusting person who wants to think the best of people and tries to live up to that belief. Fastidious if she is given the opportunity and particularly if it serves her interests and goals.

• Bianca Wyrmguard  + (Composed of ineffable poise and grace, her …
  Composed of ineffable poise and grace, her words laced with uncanny wisdom, and possessed of a calm disposition that seems capable of weathering even the worst of storms, Bianca Wyrmguard is always ready with a kind word or advice to those in need of it, putting a sharp and empathetic mind to work in helping the people around her. But while she is undoubtedly warm, it is a distant warmth. Bianca often exists at a remove from others, playing most of her private thoughts and feelings close to the vest, and rarely speaks about herself, preferring instead to focus on the needs of others. Behind all those layers lies a naturally pragmatic woman who nonetheless finds deep fascination in the human condition and is endlessly in passionate pursuit of new knowledge and new experiences. Recent years, however, have seen a slow shift in Bianca's outlook and behavior, and her deep well of calm has been steadily coupled with a biting and incisive wit that has little tolerance for foolishness. Increasingly willing to embrace her own, personal ambitions, Bianca is implacable once she puts her mind to something -- to the point of an unfortunate tendency towards overworking herself; a fact that she will persistently disavow right up to the point she passes out in the middle of her adamant denial.
  s out in the middle of her adamant denial.)
• Corrigan Grayhope  + (Confessor Corrigan is a guy with a lot of …
  Confessor Corrigan is a guy with a lot of shade in his past and a lot of snark in his future, halfway to hardboiled. Quick witted and sharp, little gets past him, and few opportunities for a glib remark pass him by. He has little patience for self-pity and does not suffer fools gladly; he has a tendency to privilege his own pain over what others have or could experience. That said, he also has little tolerance in self-pity in himself, either, and applies his sarcastic humor to himself with the lash of self-deprecation as often as he flips casual insult towards others. There are few situations in which he can't find some kind of lighter side, even if his sense of humor can be appreciably black. I mean, you've got to laugh, right?
  black. I mean, you've got to laugh, right?)
• Amir Melaeris  + (Confident but not arrogant, Amir carries h …
  Confident but not arrogant, Amir carries himself like the nobility he is. There is a calm self-assuredness to his words, as if he's certain of every sentence he speaks and the ideals that he strives for. Pride is a word for it. Stubborness is another. The lord refuses to bend or cave when it comes to defending what he considers to be just or honorable. That's not to say he doesn't know how to be convincing or charming in his arguments, just that he doesn't see a point to brushing things under the rug. His wanderlust and love for freedom have at times put him at odds with his own ideals and to this day, Amir struggles to balance the two. Duty can be a heavy burden to bear.

• Capri De Lire  + (Confident incarnate and blessed with a ter …
  Confident incarnate and blessed with a terribly morbid sense of humour, he has a strong sense of honour - if by honour, you mean self-preservation, and by self-preservation, you also mean he likes money. A mercenary through and through, Capri is the type of Lycene who will pragmatically stab someone in the back for his own advancement, but is the staunchest of allies when it is preferable. He enjoys the finer things, and he loves to laugh, but he'll come down on someone that's betrayed his family with utter and complete wrath when it's guaranteed it can be done in one swoop. He likes to drink.

• Ciaran Farshaw  + (Confident, sometimes to excess, Ciaran has …
  Confident, sometimes to excess, Ciaran has the devil-may-care attitude of someone who lives life exactly the way he wants to, on the schedule that best suits him. He doesn't have much patience for rules and procedures, and he's not going to sit around at a boring function if there's more interesting things to be done elsewhere. For all that, though, he is very polite and has a strong sense of honor and fair play. His sense of humor is extremely dry, and he's not the sort to shy away from confrontation, be it on the battlefield or in a ballroom. In fact, he might be just a little too competitive.
  he might be just a little too competitive.)
• Thistle Ulbran  + (Contrary to her name, Thistle is far from …
  Contrary to her name, Thistle is far from prickly or abrasive. She speaks with a surprising eloquence for someone from the Lower Boroughs and possesses a disarming sort of charm. Her easy smiles and laid back nature hide a very keen mind. Thistle has an uncanny knack for languages, puzzles, and topics of complex nature. She's just as happy to talk philosophy or economics with a costumer as she is to entertain them with good company and wine. When it comes to work or her craft, Thistle is very meticulous. Everything has to perfect, done right, and as near to flawless as possible or it must be done over. Though Thistle is far from uptight. She enjoys the simple pleasures in life as much as the next person. She simply holds herself and only herself, to higher standards.
  elf and only herself, to higher standards.)
• Qadira Crown  + (Contrary to impressions, Qadira is neither …
  Contrary to impressions, Qadira is neither a misanthrope nor unkind. Her past - raised a thrall and later married and fled - creates a natural wariness, but she is a compassionate and fairly intuitive woman. Even charming, on the right day, her accrued strength lending confidence to her words and an honesty that comes across as confrontational because it is; daring the world to be better. She takes her tasks seriously, from cooking to tending wounds and picking pockets, applying an admirable passion to all she does. The criminality is unfortunate, but she claims caution in whom she steals from, and a desire to do anything else. Being born with nothing does distort one's worldview. In truth this hard-eyed hellion is more canine than feline, though she has yet to find her 'pack'. She's as prickly as her name, but Qadira ultimately believes in commonality, and that people who apply themselves can accomplish feats beyond their limits. A life spent in captivity does make her profoundly naive in many ways; raging against the powerful on principle, or rejecting and ejecting an unruly customer over their unwise actions. This swiftness to judge may change, in time, when she finds her trust. For now she's at least a good conversation and a fine friend to those who don't ignite her smouldering temper. The future could be bright, if she doesn't end up imprisoned or executed.

  Cool of temperament, Arian is quick to smile, laugh or toss over a wink. The young man doesn't seem to have any issue getting along with most, brash and blunt with some, whilst calm and collected with others. However, upon closer inspection there's a storm of emotion roiling behind the twinkle of his cold gaze, lending to the idea that there's more to him than first meets the eye.

  Coquettish to a fault and debonair even when she shouldn't be. Astraea has impeccable manners and doesn't believe in rudeness of any kind, even upon the battlefield. Though some might describe her as pragmatic this chevalier is highly principled and carries herself with the moral fiber of someone who keeps themselves accountable for their own actions. While her moods tend to vary like her sister's she is most usually in high spirits, but never quite bubbly. Even suggesting such a thing is enough to earn a scoff and maybe a derisive chuckle or two. It's normally assumed that soldiers, knights and warriors of her caliber tend to be highly disciplined but this Lycene born princess is quite lazy. Never when it counts, but enough that if she can delegate or sidestep a minor responsibility she will. This attitude lends to her Tehom-may-care demeanor and compliments her sometimes too serious moments quite well. A woman of contrasts indeed.

• Corbit Leary  + (Corbit is almost unfailingly kind, polite …
  Corbit is almost unfailingly kind, polite and insightful. That is, when he takes the time to think about being any of these things. Truth is, his mind is usually in several different places at once, at times he is rude, too blunt or even can seem uncaring. But it's rarely because he means to be, he just has bigger things to think about. He is normally fairly reserved and quiet with a quick, wry sense of humor that shows up now and again. His quietness and reservation simply fade away once he begins talking about one of his many and varied interests that he can talk about, excitedly and passionately for extended periods of time. Show a bit of interest and you may be subjecting yourself to a long, though interesting lecture on anything from the economic history of the Thrax to the singing patterns of local, migratory birds. At the very core of his character is simply an unbridled enthusastic curiosity about all things around him. Which he pursues with great fervor, sometimes, to the exclusion of everything else.

  Corinna Kelsey is warm, cheerful, and a complete ditz. She's sure to annoy anyone who doesn't find her flighty, eager volubility and her almost incredible gullibility charming, but she works so hard to please those in her company that such is a rare thing. She is intensely curious about anyone not from the Lower Boroughs of the city, and prone to asking nosy questions of anyone who catches her interest. She usually speaks before she thinks, and frequently puts her foot in her mouth, but she rarely intends to cause offense. She is fascinated by the nobility, and takes childlike delight in pomp and circumstance of almost any nature.

• Corinne Brooks  + (Corinne is cautious and mindful, observant …
  Corinne is cautious and mindful, observant and cunning. She has a deep, unabiding love of insincere flattery and bullshit but, for the most part, goes about it in a playful way. She lies and prevaricates often, but makes no effort to hide the fact, which means her statements tend to occupy the murky territory between good-natured sarcasm, honest sincerity, and outright treachery. The best conversation, in her mind, is one that's so muddled even she isn't sure if she believes or disbelieves what she's saying anymore. Aside from her social persona, she's much more serious and studious in private, though her disposition tends towards sunny even then. Alchemy is an art to her, and there isn't much she wouldn't do for one more principle, one more secret, one more trick. It would be unfair to call her morally bankrupt, but 'morally impoverished' isn't too far off.
  'morally impoverished' isn't too far off.)
• Corrala Leary  + (Corrala is a thoughtful healer without the …
  Corrala is a thoughtful healer without the absent mind. She pays attention to most of the things that go on around her, and she tries to be kind to everyone regardless of rank. She is also fairly good at persuading others to help out whether its in a healing temple or household. If crossed she is able to be firm, but almost never raises her voice, because of her sensitivity to the emotional undercurrents of almost every social situation. Her thoughtfulness runs deep and as such she usually doesn't jump to conclusions, unless her temper is roused, and prefers to think things through before acting.

  Cosette is often a sweet, kind person who appears to never do any wrong. Some might says she's as innocent as can be, but others who knows her might say it's just for show. She has a rebellious streak and an itch to find trouble, but she tries her best to keep it in check. She's a sneaky one with a good sense of humor. Honestly, she means well!

• Cosimo Tessere  + (Cosimo is equal parts aloof and dry - a ma …
  Cosimo is equal parts aloof and dry - a man who prefers the company of books to strangers most nights, but isn't entirely inept at conversation when it does arise. There is hidden steel underneath his calm demeanor, and he isn't keen on being pushed around or manipulated, but he is mindful of making more enemies than is necessary. His sister doesn't need additional headaches, after all, and in the end how much of it really matters? He'll find a way to get what he wants one way or another. Possessing great acuity of vision and mind, Cosimo picks up knowledge and retains it easily. That said, he isn't a particularly skilled teacher: most of the knowledge he pursues is for his own consumption, and intellectually lazy people test his patience. He will try, if he has to, with notable effort.

  Courage is so courageous. It's why they call him Courage, you know, and it has absolutely nothing to do with his childhood friends deciding it would be funny and ironic to call their wimpiest friend Courage. No, he one-hundred-percent earned his name. Absolutely. This is not a hock of crap. Those times when he's less than brave and steel-spined? Well, he's probably just tired from being wonderfully courageous and heroic the other 99% of the time.

  Courteous toward his betters and cautious toward the unknown, Gian is well aware of his good fortune in life and determined to avoid losing his place through any hasty mistake. A meticulous sort, he can seem to obsess over minor details. Though few can recall seeing him lose his temper, he is no stoic, keen to enjoy good drink and good company.

  Coy, sweet, intelligent - Moira exemplifies traits better suited to courtesans that mingle with nobility than rabble from the Lower Boroughs, charm she learned from watching her father. Though located in the slums, her manners and etiquette are able to elevate her in polite society, never far away even when she's with her family, watching her kith and kin brawl. She relies entirely on her ability to be pleasant company, preferring smiles to stabbing, but it's not hard to see the ice behind her smiles.
