  Fecundo is a jovial sort, an easy-going swordsman who wants to see the world. He wants be a well-educated swordsman, especially wanting to learn languages, so that he can interact with the people of the world, and he's witty with a bit of a scholarly bent. He's easily excited about new and interesting things, and though he's not terribly focused, he is fairly ambitious and ready to succeed. Good things will come to him in time, an attitude which may be a result of how much his doting mother spoiled him. He's suave and charming, and if he loses his temper, he's quick to find it again.

• Rhiannon Ashford  + (Feet on the ground and eyes in the sky, Rh …
  Feet on the ground and eyes in the sky, Rhiannon Ashford is a pragmatic, vital woman with a dreamer's desire to learn and grow. Inclined to be introspective and introverted, she is not without a warm and quiet charm of her own, but it rarely shines in moments of public spectacle. When you take the time to listen to Rhiannon, you discover that few words are wasted, and that she has an understated humor and a clear sense of the ridiculous that will help temper the dire in any situation. She is fiercely protective of her scouts and of her family, and prefers to spend as much time as possible in the trees and surrounded by nature. Rather than party by night, she'd run free through the treetops by starlight, and call that the finest time she's ever had.

  Felix is? a little bit strange. First, he's not your typical scowling, brooding Thrax man. He's mostly a jovial, almost boyish man, who loves stories. He can't get enough of stories. Simple stories, grand stories, love stories, stories of gore and grit. Any little story is a fascination to him. He gets along with people of all stripes, which, admittedly, is good for business. He likes to make friends, seeing people as a story waiting to happen rather than common or noble. He's absolutely respectful, and takes great pains to never bring shame upon his Thrax patrons, and he does occasionally think women are too pretty to get out there and fight themselves. Every weapon he sells comes with a monetary price, and one that requires people to come tell them the stories they make with it, no matter how big or small. He absolutely refuses to be taken advantage of, however, and gets? very, very angry when he is cheated. He also becomes extremely violent when someone bullies or is cruel to someone less fortunate, especially when there's no reason other than pettiness.

• Brannen Harthall  + (Few children have been as severe as Branne …
  Few children have been as severe as Brannen. It seemed he was always of complete understanding and acceptance of his responsibility. Driven, focused, responsible. However there is something about Brannen that separates him from most of his dour compatriots. Brannen is not one to look down upon carefree, jovial, or happy-go-lucky types. Brannen loves them, like his twin sister. However Brannen has always understood that beacons of happiness and creativity cannot fully protect themselves, he sees himself as a guardian of beauty of the world and someone has to be a little bit boring to protect such things. It might as well be Brannen. Though he is not the most charming, Brannen knows how to lead. He may not be well liked, but he is respected by those under his command. A true stalwart, Brannen may be seen by many as a dullard, though the man truly can respect a well crafted joke or prank, however he is more focused on his duty and making sure the Right Thing is done. Brannen lives his life for honor and the Gods, he is constantly prepared to make the necessary sacrifices to protect what he loves.

• Niccolo Velenosa  + (Few nobles in the current days of Arx can …
  Few nobles in the current days of Arx can comprehend the true gravitas of the old nobility. Niccolo seems a figure out of time, with this emotions schooled under a serious expression, never hinting at what may lay beneath. The grief of his lost wife, the anger at the circumstances behind it, all of it has been transformed into the serious and commanding nature of a truly traditional lord. Niccolo leaves the games and manipulations of charms and wit to the young, remaining perfectly courtly, refined, and utterly noble in every word and expression. Politeness comes as easily as breathing to the man, ever gentlemanly, even when another would be in the throes of violent rage. A rock that would be unruffled as arrows fall around him on the field of battle, Niccolo manages the far more reserved battlefield of courtly intrigue with seemingly trivial ease.

• Isolde Velenosa  + (Few women possess the pure sense of purpos …
  Few women possess the pure sense of purpose that Isolde holds. Very little concerns her enough to cause her to second guess herself, and very little ever rattles the natural and almost pervasive calm that takes over her. When she engages in social functions, she is quick to laugh, to offer warm and kind words, occasionally laced with the understanding of the Dark Reflection (however, she's very aware of when such talk is highly inappropriate.) When she's by herself, some hints of the quiet, reserved girl come out, but only because she sees no need to manufacture interaction. She has a warm, usually kind demeanor, however serious her life path may be. It is easy for her to be friendly, even in the face of the suspicion she may face because of her calling. She shoulders the burdens, allowing them to build her confidence, rarely viewing someone else with derision.

• Lunara Argento  + (Fickle. The only constant to her personali …
  Fickle. The only constant to her personality is that she is fiercely loyal to her family bloodline. And she is notoriously quick to jump from one adventure to another. It may take some time for her to get extremely verbose, as she is quick to calculate situations if she suddenly becomes quiet, otherwise she is a spitfire in the face of adversity. Fearless to challenges, at times she may make a choice not seen by others to be the popular one the sheep are flocking to. Not afraid to stand on her own and tread her own path. Don't be surprised if she leads you somewhere least expected, just to get a rise out of you when least expected.

• Myira Corsetina  + (Fierce and fiery in her youth, Myira has l …
  Fierce and fiery in her youth, Myira has learned to temper her passion with patience. While she is still the type of person to speak her mind without much hesitation, she is much more politic about when and where to voice her opinion. She knows the value of a good servant and keeps an open ear and open eye--even if she doesn't tell anyone what she knows, it's important to be aware of everything going on in a house, from the latest gossip to what her ladyship wants for supper. Loyal and hardworking, she devotes herself to her employer with the doggedness one might expect of a knight swearing an oath. Her lady's position is HER position and if she can help her lady climb a little higher or step on the toes of her enemies, then Myira will do it.

• Jael Laurent  + (Fierce and impatient with a riotous temper …
  Fierce and impatient with a riotous temper beneath the sturdy veneer of her duty and pride, Jael learned in early adulthood to control herself and to manage herself with discipline ... but there are times that wild warning can flash behind her eyes and there are moments when it is easy to look at that fine-featured face and imagine literal smoke huffing from her nose as she controls the urge to breathe fire. When her ambitions are blocked, she has the will and intensity of an oncoming storm, and woe betide whatever stands in her way. She is passionate, fiery and energetic; she takes herself very seriously and she will be damned if everyone else doesn't as well. That said, Jael has a low taste for shocking people and has it in her to swear like a soldier in a barrack more than like a young lady of breeding and diplomacy. Oh, also, her sense of humor is terrible. She effing loves puns.

  Fierce and intensely creative, Lysander has a true passion for beauty and infuses his work with it. He tries to channel this in all areas of life, from the lovers he seduces -- he falls deeply in love at the drop of a hat only to crash angrily out of it again ten days later with fresh inspiration for a new dramatic sculpture -- to the enemies he castigates (see what happens to the lovers when they're no longer lovers) to the friends he vehemently defends (regardless of who is actually in the wrong). A dramatic and reactive creature, Lysander is a man of great enjoyment of pleasures to all of the senses. He can be tempestuous and difficult to control, but his loyalty to his family is paramount.

• Preston Crown  + (Fierce inside battle and out, Preston find …
  Fierce inside battle and out, Preston finds delight in every facet of every day. He might judge a furious thunderstorm as but an example of the lifegiving water the generous gods provide to nourish the land. Or an enemy's betrayal is a test the gods send as an opportunity to prove one's wit and cunning. Preston is quick to laugh, and always smiles, rarely finding himself in a rage. Devout to the point of fanaticism, bright and skilled in his studies, Preston seems to be the sort that cannot fail. He tries to be humble, he really does, since humility is a foremost virtue. But he's young, and too skilled, and too close to the faith to be entirely sweet. He makes a great show of helping those in need, from great to small, sure that the gods smile down upon him.

  Fierce, independent, with a wicked sense of humour, Cora's life focus has always been on "what's in it for us". Loyal to the core when she accepts a friendship she will go to the end of the earth to help a friend. But it takes a while for trust to build, to get past the quick humoured, spark edged persona.

  Fierce, loyal, snarky, but always just short of actual rudeness. He has the confidence of someone that knows he earned his place in the world, even if he also realizes that he's getting to be part of an older generation. He hasn't slowed down any, and makes it a point to remind people of by always being busy doing something.

• Kerr Deepwood  + (Fierce, passionate and a little dramatic, …
  Fierce, passionate and a little dramatic, Kerr is driven by a need to excel. His ambition is to prove himself, past humble roots, past death and ruin. He has a cold streak born of angst, and a sardonic sense of humor that goes from gray to black. His personal strength and moral suasion are such that he tends to look down on people who need props to get by, be they drugs, alcohol, meaningless sex, prayer, whatever: his independence is too important to him. He has a deep egalitarian streak, but with that comes a strong sense of loyalty to the Deepwood March and their potential.

  Fiery, rough around the edges, a little uncultured and uncivilized - that's Morrighan. She has impish tendencies and a love of strong liquor; by no means does she have any ladylike qualities. Sometimes she can be brash and abrasive, saying what's on her mind and often has a no-nonsense attitude. Typically sharp and quick witted, the young woman has a mouth that can at times even make a pirate blush. She usually keeps her temper in line when necessary, most of the time it's reeled in by Redrain nobility...with some measured difficulty. Morrighan will bite her tongue and play nice when she feels her actions might reflect poorly on the noble family that saved her. She's fiercely loyal to Redrain - no task is too much, and she'll readily admit that she's very protective of Prince Sherrod's family. She's not ashamed of who and what she is, and if there's a derogatory remark about her being a Prodigal? Morrighan will just give a smug looking smirk.

  Figuring out Amari Keaton was something of a local pastime in Oakhaven. The vagaries of her personality from day to day were legend; sometimes sweet, sometimes cruel, always sharp witted, smart and observant. Intensity was her companion from a young age, and she is prone to bouts of it still when something manages to draw the fullness of her focus. There is an air of mystery that swirls around her, one never quite knows what to expect and she is often approaching things from oblique angles.

  Finding the good in each person, the beauty in all things, Aurora looks at life through rose colored glasses. While not naive to the ways the world works, or shielded from the horrors people are capable of, the woman just prefers to give the benefit of the doubt. Despite this, she is fiercely ambitious. Her goals have been set, and she will do everything she is able to see them met, by any means possible.

  Fire uncontained is a something of rage, a devouring hunger that consumes all, but fire contained is a tempering force, of human warmth as well as human industry. Talwyn is fire contained, and though there is a deep ambition that stokes his inner flame, it is tempered and restrained beneath layers of dignity and restraint. His is a considerable raw material of creative force, passion trammelled behind by the bonds of self-control whose main release comes from art, and his art is the playing and composition of music. He has mastered the art of being alluringly elusive to prospective suitors of either gender; his reserve is spun in layers of amusement and dignity, and what lies beneath he only sets free by choice.

  First and foremost Col is driven to succeed. It expresses itself in his natural charisma and his thirst for knowledge. He is a vociferous reader but for all his charm he prefers the quiet over the hustle and bustle of large social gatherings. That drive also makes him focus on one thing to the exclusion of all other related things. If he is learning a new skill, he learns it until he has mastered it. A new project will consume him until it is finished. A book will be read in a single sitting if possible. When he must be social he is charming and gregarious but will always prefer the company of a small group of friends.

  Flamboyantly daring with brash confidence, Viviana intends to live life to its fullest. Setbacks and defeats are just entertaining challenges that allow her to showcase dazzling skill or charm, and Viviana is never one to permit anything to throw her off her jaunty stride for very long. With a wicked wit and keenly ambitious mind that lives up to House Pravus' dark reputation, she's ready to laugh off just about everything- particularly words of caution, piety of restraint.

  Flavien has been known to come off cold. He has a very hard look at the practicalities of any situation before determining if he truly wants to engage. His oaths to those above he takes deadly seriously like a great many knights, and his associations often are reminded of their place as second to them. Still, when he can work in some dark humor or not drive someone off, they seem to benefit more from his active protections as well.

  Flighty. Curious. Scattered. Noisy. Nosy, too. Moire is an animated young woman prone to laughter, overdramatics, and trying to figure out how things work.

  For Kent Harthall nobility is not simply a name for the class he belongs to but a description of behaviour he seeks to embody and expects of others. For him words like loyalty, honour, and duty mean a great deal. He is shrewd with money yet charitable, pious but not saintly, scholarly but not bookish. He is extremely committed to advancing the station of his house but he is also a man with his own goals and not unwilling to compromise his higher virtues to achieve them if the opportunity presented itself.

  For all of his life he has been subservient to the codes of honor that form the backbone of Valardin. He is soft spoken and kind whilst he keeps a strong-as-steel pride into his every action.

Patience and quiet reverence are two words that may describe him best.

• Aldwin Aurum  + (For most, providing counsel and perspectiv …
  For most, providing counsel and perspective to potential enemies would make someone an enemy themselves, mistrusted and suspect beyond redemption. Aldwin escapes all that, perhaps simply by sheer longevity. Few people could be as devoted to the Realm as a single entity, even beyond the King himself, than the Archscholar of Vellichor. In his eyes, every living, breathing soul has as much right to learn, grow, and succeed as any other, so all that come to him are met with unfailing kindness, wisdom, and a perspective that would not otherwise be considered. He treats young nobles as if they were his own grandchildren, and older ones, well, pretty much the same way. He's not reluctant to call out folly, but does so in a way that edifies, rather than tears down the student he instructs. His only ambition seems the betterment of the Realm and those who walk through his doors.

  For some it can be said that they might be a wolf in sheep's clothing. For Aerwan Valardin, the more appropriate turn of phrase may be a fox in dragon's scales. Oathlander values have been instilled in the man almost to the bone: stalwart discipline, courtesy and chivalry, a sometimes stark sense of right and wrong, and a reverence for the Pantheon, like an armor forged in the principles of his forebears. While many of his family wear these traits as heavy plate, Aerwan's ingots of ideals have been refined and hammered down into a flowing mantle of steelsilk, airy and relaxed in their donning like a comfortable cloak. Yet every so often his facets of individuality glint through to tint its shades: an inclination toward idealistic naivety, an almost youthful appreciation for mirth and mischief that is reined in tightly, and a keen inquisitiveness in much of the world around him that couldn't be entirely penned up if he tried.

  For someone so young, Titus has seen far too much death and suffering. Coming of age during a great contagion that saw many stripped away from him, and constantly aware of the threats that could imperil all those he cared about, he was studious, serious, and often melancholy. The temptation to indulge in self-pity and bitterness was overcome by a fierce determination to better his people, to serve them to the best of his abilities, and to prove worthy of the sacrifices he saw his soldiers make time and again. He sees battlefield strategy as a butcher's work, grim and full of sorrow- but his talent. A tragic talent, but his nonetheless.

  For someone who loves the finer things in life, leaving the lap of Lycene luxury has to come with an upside. Taddeo doesn't make any decisions without careful calculation; not even which evening dress will send the precisely intended meeting for a dinner party. Fashion can be important as wit, two motivations that guide Taddeo's ambitions. And he is ambitious; this is no priest content to spend his life as a Brother. He has his goals aimed far higher than that, and a vision driven less by wholehearted devotion to any particular god than by devotion to the institution of the Faith. He has plans, and he's going to see them out in glamourous style.

  For the first decade of her life, Ramona was treated differently. Most of the time, she was denied any love and affection. She was the source of a problem, even if she did not understand what it was. Yet, there were times when both "aunt" and "uncle" would shower praise and affection on her - always behind closed doors, usually while said guardians were drunk. And so it was that Ramona learned of human emotions. They make no sense and there's no reason to dwell on them. Instead, she focused on the empirical. She focused on rules, on logic, on science, on knowledge. To say she was awkward, well. She never felt awkward, even as she broke social norms, or missed social queues, or otherwise acted weird. But she sure made other people feel awkward, and got herself removed from parties, sent to her dorm room, and otherwise excluded. But that's no matter! She remains upbeat, happy, pleasant, and even adorable, time to time. She speaks honestly and candidly. She lives in her own world, so long as no one yells at her about doing something "wrong". Through knowledge, life is easy.

  For the most part, Ripley is a happy-go-ucky sort of individual with highs of passion that can at times be a little manic. An exuberance for his work, his family and his city. But there is and are times when it is the opposite and the man can barely get out of bed and melencholy strikes which leaves him moping around the city like a kicked puppy and grasping at ways to drag himself out of it.

  Forthright occasionally to a fault, Mercedes brooks nonsense from no one and commands respect with her eyes and her name. She is a Dragon: an endless depth of passionate will seems buried beneath a surface rigid with strength. When she has determined that a thing is one way, based on reason or passion, there is simply no moving her. Her word is her bond and she will go to ridiculous lengths to keep a trust. Mercedes is an easy leader to follow, because she leads with her heart, from the front, no holds barred -- damn their spears, full speed ahead. Yet she is a good reactive thinker, tactically quick, decisive and fierce. She can be ruthless as well as reckless in the crunch, a woman who recognizes the need to get the job done and will do it, but her code of honor is the bedrock on which her entire self is built, and is wholly unshakable. She is not a woman of no smiles, but a woman of rare ones, and all those that come to her must be true and real, for there is no deception in her. Neither is she a woman without a sense of humor -- but it is reined in beneath her dignity, and escapes in mild, dry bursts, when it does so.

  Forthright, bright, and clever, with a quick tongue and a readiness to apply sass in any given situation, Iliana is a quick thinker with an impatient energy to her. Her sense of humor is dry and sharp, and she is unafraid to scathe when necessary. She is a doer, not a prepper; she would always rather take an action than wait, once there is enough information for a plan to be formed. She's not reckless or foolish, but she is 200% done with an abundance of caution. This brings her into frequent clashes with her husband the detail-oriented. Restless energy drives her towards action and decision. She has a practical, no-nonsense approach to a number of things in life, and tends to rain on the parades of the sentimental and idealistic.

Fortunato is fascinated by large things, your cataclysm, your strange, dangerous occurrence, his teeth bared with excitement as he clings to the periphery of disaster. While an artist by trade and passion, he has more of a reputation for how little he seems to produce. He's more interested in art as a venue for exploration, exploration that extends to philosophical, mystical obsessions and poetic pretense in his speech. His dreamy curiosity carries a troubled undercurrent, though, which can surface as brittle temper or turbulent intensity. Or deep melancholy. He seems a man divided between wonder and dissatisfaction.

  Fortune favours the bold, they say, and Svana has certainly proven that. She's a risk-taker with a strong personality, able to stand up to even the most brash of sellswords and merchants trying to get one up on her. She can be stubborn as a winter wind when she feels the need, and has little patience for failed attempts to fleece her! She's not always the firm merchant, however, and her quick wit translates into a wicked sense of humour and love of small pranks-- harmless jokes that make the road seem less long, and end up as fond memories.

  Frailty barred Videl from so much she'd like to have done, she's determined not to let anything else get in her way. If she decides she wants to do something, she will. Often cheerful, always glad to be around people, and in love with crowds, Videl is at home in grand parties. But, her frailty has shaped more than just her determination. She's compassionate towards those who struggle with circumstances beyond their control, eager to help those she can, and in those frequent times of sickness, she paints. Her work is cryptic, a way to express herself when she can find no other way.

  Fray has a cold and blunt way of speaking in a neutral setting, that gives off an uncaring or uninterested aura. Their main motivation in life is protecting the weak and punishing the corrupt, but it's a very selfish and opinionated, who might decide not to act even if a situation arises. They also have a habit of staring at people.

  Frederik's wisdom, stoicism and intellect are his best traits arguably, but his House's history of domestic betrayal, illness and hardship has given him the misfortune of humorless, unironic cynicism. While honor and loyalty is held in extremely high esteem, Frederik doesn't believe in taking chances, second chances, or luck altogether, and regards the world around him with a pessimistic practicality.

• Tikva Riven  + (Free-spirited, adventurous, and alive with …
  Free-spirited, adventurous, and alive with a bright spark of seeming unflagging energy, Tikva launches a one-woman vitality assault on the world. Warm and generous of spirit almost to a fault, her compassion is coupled with a deep curiosity that frequently involves her deeply in other people's business. This warmth could become cloying if it weren't cut by a finely honed sense of the ridiculous, a wry pragmatism that frequently verges on snarky. Tikva's primary personal values are love and loyalty, and she holds personal and familial loyalty especially paramount in her heart of hearts. Tikva loves stories and songs and wants to know everybody's stories. She also enjoys words, being a creative thinker and speaker, and she likes to play with them and make them dance on their heads.
