|---|---|
| Anastajia Mercy + | Aiming to please and bring smiles to everyone she meets, Anastajia is a whimsical dancer in possession of a pure and sincere heart. Dreaming big, she hopes her existence can help to make the world a better place. She is always willing to listen to peoples struggles, and is she can, fill them with the warmth they need. Don't be fooled by her playful demeanor, however, as she is more clever than meets the eyes. If you believe she is easy to double cross, think again. Betray her one too many times and she will develop a grudge that will last life times. + |
| Anders Nightcove + | Stern, commanding. Anders is not known for his warmth or laughter. He has a strict dedication to his family and to the traditions that he believes have made the Mourning Isles great all of these years. He's willing to live and die by his ideals. The man has little interest in debate and would rather make his stances known through actions than pointless circular arguments. + |
| Andreas Donatti + | Although at first glance he may come off as a bit serious and intimidating. Andreas does not lack in the charming and clever departments. There is something about that collected attitude, clever use of words, and deep southern accent alluring enough to draw the right people, at the right time, in the most convenient of ways. What a lucky fellow, some say! + |
| Andrel Monteaux + | Andrel is a very gregarious sort of man. With a bright smile on his face, Andrel confidently strides about with a demeanor that borders on arrogance. This does little to detract from his social, if perhaps boisterous attitude, however. Ever the optimist, Andrel finds himself home in a crowd where the attention is focused on him-- manifested through an often loud, energetic voice. + |
| Andrina Thornburn + | A touch on the pampered side for a commoner. Andrina is idealistic and naive. The harshness of reality rarely touches her. With a daydreamer's soul she's often caught up in fantasy involving epic battles and large than life heroes. This is not to say she isn't savvy, she just isn't as pragmatic as she might otherwise be if she had lived a less sheltered life. She sees the good in everyone and likes most people. + |
| Andromeda Leporidae + | Andromeda is a regal woman who knows what she wants in life and there is little that will change her mind once she is decided on anything, although she is not unreasonable and is always willing to adapt. The Sword of Tremorus is fierce when on the field of battle or dealing with those she feels are lesser than herself. She does possess a sense of humor, of course, but it's very dry and sarcasm is her weapon of choice during social engagements. Among warriors, sailors, and brash types she is charming and inspiring in a way that is hard to put a finger on for most everyone else. Despite her years of experience on the field of battle, she has maintained her honor, dignity, respect and compassion for people who do so love one of their greatest Heroes. True bloodshed is not something she reaches for so easily even though she -does- enjoy a bit of violence from time to time to keep her wits about her. Within reason, of course. + |
| Andry Bayweather + | Andry is a survivor first and foremost. While other Knights may look down on this attitude, being more self sacrificing and 'noble' Andry hasn't lived as long as he has that way. He's done it by making the right choices to put him and those closest to him first. Yes there's ideals, there's the Gods who obviously come first, but there's always a way to make sure there is still a way to advance. Andry is always planning. There's always an angle, he casts wide nets to get involved with a great many projects, giving favors reaps favors, after all. Andry tries to keep up good relations with everyone he meets, you never know when they might be useful. He's a careful meticulous planner who makes sure to have his fingers in as many pies as possible and his sharp eye and wit to help out those in need. He is deeply pragmatic, and while his true loyalties only belong to a select few, he views them as an extension of himself. While he's a deep thinker, relying heavily on his mental skills, he is also given to bouts of passion and emotion which can sometimes be his greatest bane. Leaving him often perplexed at himself the night before, trying to figure out how to get out of this pickle. Andry also likes to use his keen mind for practical jokes. It is often a way to show those he cares for he has a deep love for them. Intricate, meticulous but ultimately harmless pranks being the tops. + |
| Angelica Sanna + | Intense. Focused. She has her task and her duties and she does them to the best of her ability. Her joy is the satisfaction of a job done well. Confident, outwardly calm, it's hard to say what she'd be like if she lost control. As it is, she's as placid as a deep lake, grounded and at times unfathomable. + |
| Angelo DiFidante + | The uncharitable might call Angelo lazy, but it's not fair. He's far from lazy. Once he finds something that traps his interests, he can be deeply passionate about it: about words, word games, philosophy, human stories, and more recently about diplomacy. He can be intense on the subject of Tehom and the other gods. Those who don't 'get it' might call Angelo aloof, but he is not that either. There is a warmth behind his reserve, an alert interest that allows him to listen to others in a focused way for an extended period of time, so that he can share his wisdom to their needs. The aggressively Lycene may call Angelo prudish, but he merely prefers intimacy to wild abandon. He's just not interested in debauchery for its own sake. He can be very sensual and deeply, imaginatively romantic when someone has his interest. The hot-tempered might call Angelo cold, but he's not cold; he's merely controlled, composed, and rarely does he lose his temper over an imagined slight. + |

| Anisha Whisper + | Anisha is a bright and curious thing, always eager to learn more about the people around her. Enjoying the finer things, she has a zest and passion for life that borders on (and frequently crosses into) the hedonistic. She can find enthusiasm for just about anything and tries to spread joy with her every word and action. + |
| Ann Redrain + | For a supposedly stuffy old scholar, Ann is a remarkably devil-may-care Princess. For an older sibling, Ann has more often been the goad to temptation and the road less traveled. Any semblance to a bookish, authoritative woman is purely coincidental. But those are the two disparate sides to Ann Moriah Redrain, and they are as interchangeable as the sun and the rain, pulled out to suit the occasion or the mercurial nature of the woman herself. + |
| Ann Rivenshari + | For a supposedly stuffy old scholar, Ann is a remarkably devil-may-care Princess. For an older sibling, Ann has more often been the goad to temptation and the road less traveled. Any semblance to a bookish, authoritative woman is purely coincidental. But those are the two disparate sides to Ann Moriah Redrain, and they are as interchangeable as the sun and the rain, pulled out to suit the occasion or the mercurial nature of the woman herself. + |
| Ann crovane + | For a supposedly stuffy old scholar, Ann is a remarkably devil-may-care Princess. For an older sibling, Ann has more often been the goad to temptation and the road less traveled. Any semblance to a bookish, authoritative woman is purely coincidental. But those are the two disparate sides to Ann Moriah Redrain, and they are as interchangeable as the sun and the rain, pulled out to suit the occasion or the mercurial nature of the woman herself. + |
| Annabella Grimhall + | Anna is a bit quiet, and would much rather not interact with people if given the opportunity. Though it's not to be rude, usually, though she can be a bit sassy if caught in a bad mood. She just gets flustered easily and doesn't consider herself too good at being social. If you get her going, though, she could pick your brain for hours about the latest discoveries in the medical world or what she's been reading about in her novels lately. She rarely looks people in the eye when she does speak to them. + |
| Annika Navegant + | It would be easy to have become cold, or distant, living on Escuma and being mostly isolated from a lot of the Islands. But Annika was never geared towards that type of personality. She's warm, affectionate, caring to a fault in many ways, but also practical and willing to do make the hard choices when the time comes. She has always had a maternal streak, but don't let that fool you, she's not a push over. + |
| Ansel Telmar + | Quiet. Diligent. Friendly. Brave. Ansel is used to hearing these words to describe him by individuals that barely know him at all, and it's a rare person that could claim to know him better than that. The young lord is a difficult man to get to know, but it's not as if he is unfriendly, really- the need for courtesy and amiable agreeability was drilled relentlessly into Ansel by his father, Duke Arn, even if the older man had no desire whatsoever to ever show those traits himself. Given a choice, the young man would be happiest alone and on his own, investing himself in studies and far away from other people and their games, but that possibility was denied to him as ever being an option. So he's the Sword of the Telmarch, striving hard to live up to the obligations of his name and position, even as he never has felt particularly drawn to it. What choice does he have? + |
| Ansgar Blackram + | Pride has carried him far in life, what he may lack in other facets of life, Ansgar makes up for in his pride. Whether it is pride in his own achievements, pride in the history of his family or the pride of his fealty, Ansgar finds strength there. Despite his pride, he is not necessarily a man who is unable to bend and enjoy life, he can joke about his weaknesses and his mistakes. If he is reminded of the fact he's gotten to be more than just forgetful, he just smiles and plays it off as having known he was asking the same thing all over again. He may not recollect that he is well past his prime, and his own pride makes it hard for him to accept that despite being a big strong Blackram, he's getting older and slower in a fight. + |
| Antea Mazetti + | Antea has spent many years and much training in crafting her public facade. Studious, serious, even severe could all be appellations attached to the young woman. She tends to be brief and to the point in her speech, and while she strives to be respectful and polite to all she meets, everyone has their limitations and Antea does not suffer fools lightly. And then there is the rare moment where one can actually see the young woman behind the mask, bright with curiosity and looking to experience a world long denied to her. It is the rare occurrence to see Antea let her hair down, but she will do so at seemingly random intervals. + |
| Anton Kennex + | Possessing a rather imperturbable temperament, it was obvious at an early age that the genial and cool-headed Kennex would not make a very stellar combatant, especially given his languid mannerisms and seeming refusal to take anything to a violent course of action. Later, it became clear that he wasn't a pacifist so much as preferring to avoid unnecessary bloodshed, and devoted himself to the traditional noble studies, as well as a passion for fortifications and architecture in general, as well as how to find more efficiency in all systems. What he lacks in physicality, Anton makes up with intelligence and charm. + |
| Antonia Amadeo + | Antonia is polite and even on occasion pleasant but may seem aloof, seemingly focused on representing her lady appropriately. She does not tend to fall into frivolities of her lifestyle but rather is focused on setting the example of decorum. Overall she seems aimable and unassuming. (This may change depending on the needs of Saorise) + |
| Antonio Velenosa + | He might have been sent to Arx to play at Court, but Antonio's first love is still the sea - even after what he's lost there. He's not the sort to be defeated by a loss, though. Antonio is as resilient as water, and as tireless as the waves. He doesn't dwell on past failures, and he doesn't think about the possibility of more in the future. It's just not in his nature. He pairs a crass sailors' sense of humor with a nearly boundless well of positivity. In his mind, there's nothing he can't do. This is not to say he's chipper, or even one of those annoyingly cheerful sorts, he just doesn't give up. Not on his friends, not on his men, and not on himself. + |
| Anwen Ravenseye + | Vivacious and as fierce as the sea, Anwen is known to most in the same breath as her first love: the ocean. She is quick to laugh and bright of personality, with an indomitable spirit and a thirst for adventure. She is tenacious and sometimes brash, but in quieter moments is capable of great softness and tenderness. + |
| Anze Malvici + | Serious and jovial, warrior and jester. Trying to find a way to smile through everything can be hard, but Anze tries. He's a warrior first and foremost, a man of the blade who's no stranger to the harsh lands of the north but he tries to balance that with a lot of smiles and good natured living. When not wielding a blade it's best to not think about what that blade is used for, and so Anze doesn't, leaving that to those times he does have to pick up the blade. And then the smiles stop. + |

When not wielding a blade it's best to not think about what that blade is used for, and so Anze doesn't, leaving that to those times he does have to pick up the blade. And then the smiles stop. + |
| Aodhan Crovane + | Aodhan is generally a kind and gentle man, despite his often serious exterior. While normally he is loving and gentle, especially with children, he can become stern and stoic when the situation calls for it. Kind and virtuous yet ruthless and merciless, he is both and is so splendidly. He holds a deep love for his family and people, his loyalty to them unbreakable. He is often known to throw down whatever he is doing to help a friend in need, which can lead him into trouble. Above all else, family and friends reign supreme in his life. + |
| Aonghus Seliki + | Friendly and open, any are welcome in Aonghus' domain - the forge and shop he takes great pride in having. He has taken well to Grayson's relaxed strictures on social proprieties, treating high- and low-born with equal regard. Even so, politeness goes a long way with him. Roll in to his shop rude and he'll show you the door, no matter how pampered your fanny. He often sings or hums while he's working and his voice is such that it doesn't send the dogs howling. + |
| Apollis Malvici + | While Apollis flirts with nihilism and hedonism in full measure, his true beliefs are hidden beneath a sea of not giving a fuck. While his days of troublemaking are behind him, he's still no model of excellent behavior. He doesn't sit still and struggles with impulse control. Don't call him untrustworthy, though, for he's fiercely loyal to his family. + |
| Apollo Malespero + | Years in Arx have rounded out his ineffable charm; it settles like a certainty about his kindness. He speaks easily and willingly with almost anyone, prizing connection and conversation. Though he has moments where his glib tongue still runs off with him, a cultivated discipline has made the appearance of trouble a rarity. That's the way he likes it, avoiding ill will and violence until the last extreme. + |
| Apollo Oakwood + | There's an ineffable charm to Apollo that sees him through most confrontations that may or may not have started with the glibness of his tongue. His wits are relied upon almost exclusively in times of trouble and they serve him rather well. He might be slow to trust, but once he does, he's loyal to the bone, so while he may call few friend, those he does, may count on him til his last. + |
| Appolonia Seraceni + | Appolonia's foundation is curiosity. Perhaps it is Pravus, perhaps it is simply some sort of horrible feline spiritual touch, but she has always had her mind turn towards the unseen, towards things uncharted and seas unsailed. This has drawn her largely into scholarly pursuits, where she can gratify this desire without too much work. This curiosity has extended to the nature of humanity. Why do people do what they do? What do people truly think? Are people truly bad or truly good? Is virtue inborn or made? These kinds of topics, as well as a mixture of the social graces and a certain amount of natural poise, have made Appolonia able to get along with just about anybody and leave a good impression for the length of a quarter of an hour. After this... well, that's about how long it takes for the strangeness of her interests to show themselves. Even then, though, she is rarely without poise. + |
| Arcadia Leary + | It's not that Arcadia isn't smart, exactly. She likes learning new things just fine; so long as they're new and exciting skills, rather than boring and useless facts. The list of things Cady would like to try includes but is not limited to: swordfighting, sailing, drinking too much, traveling to far away lands, meeting interesting people, exploring dangerous places, falling in love, falling out of love, and punching things. With a strong sense of adventure, and an eagerness to expand her horizons, Arcadia is up for anything. Bright and bubbly, she is willing to try anything once (or twice!) and delighted to meet new people from all different walks of life. She enjoys parties, as long as they aren't dull ones where everyone talks in low voices about the latest scientific study on weather patterns. Parties with drinking: good. Parties with dancing: better. Parties with masks AND drinking AND dancing: ideal. Finally in Arx, after years of dreaming of such freedom and opportunity, she is ready to meet any possibility with open arms. The world is her oyster! Speaking of which, is anyone available for oyster harvesting lessons? + |

| Arcelia Navegant + | Arcelia is a young and very compassionate woman who speaks up when needed. She can be quiet and attentive at times but when she sets her mind to a task it is difficult to pull her back in. She is sweet, sometimes playing the coy noble, sometimes the wise young girl, and other times falling to the naivete of her youth. But she is almost always sincere, not being a fan of deception and manipulation except during times when there is no other option. She wears her heart on her sleeve and is unafraid to tell others how she feels and what she thinks. Arcelia is full of passion and drive, often pursuing what she wants without pause. She is a playful woman with the young heart of a woman who just wants to have fun and watch other people having fun with her. She enjoys climbing trees, throwing mud, and catching people off guard by how creative and fun-loving she can be. + |
| Arcelia Saik + | Arcelia is a young and very compassionate woman who speaks up when needed. She can be quiet and attentive at times but when she sets her mind to a task it is difficult to pull her back in. She is sweet, sometimes playing the coy noble, sometimes the wise young girl, and other times falling to the naivete of her youth.

She enjoys climbing trees, throwing mud, and catching people off guard by how creative and fun-loving she can be. + |
| Archene Clearwater + | To those he is close, Archene is trusting, caring and open. To those who aren't, he can even seem to be trusting, caring and open, but he doubtlessly would do nothing for them if it didn't benefit him. + |
| Archeron Tyde + | Archeron a creature of wood and earth, he is most comfortable in the natural world and in the urban world there is always a sense of 'on guard' about him. He is not so much quiet as he doesn't feel compelled to speak unless he has something to say, and when he does so he does it concisely, respectfully, and without any bravado. He is steady and reliable, perhaps even predictable, seeming to the lack the sort mercurial reactivity his Thraxian peers are so well known for. + |
| Archibald Kitt + | Generally embittered by life, Archibald considered none his friend. Too much has been taken from him already. + |
| Ardee de Lire + | Outgoing, warm, a free spirit with a love of laughter. On the surface Ardee is fun and flirtatious, the aura around her brimming with promises of adventure. Her wits are sharp and her tongue even sharper. Beneath the soft, feminine surface, however, is a spine of steel. The woman knows what it takes to survive, but is skilled at playing soft and innocent. + |
| Ardoin Valardin + | Ardoin is one of those annoyingly optimistic folks, even in the face of the odds stacked against him. Impeccably pious, his veneration of the Pantheon is only matched by his strongly held convictions of right and wrong, honor and fidelity. That, combined with his steadfast belief in chivalry, scholarly pursuits and very serious belief in the Valardin knight being the sword and shield for the commoner has led to some friction within the family - which he happily ignores, remaining as genial and approachable as ever. Still, the idea that the commoners should be granted more land and economic opportunities while being steadfastly supported by a stronger hand of the nobility has made him less than popular in the minor branch of the Valardin family to which he belongs. + |
| Argos Seraceni + | Argos is fairly kind to most people and even tries to advise those that cause trouble in his sight. Known to even lecture criminals from time to time as well. He is no fool and knows that in war sometimes hard choices need to be made and men like him have to carry out their orders no matter their personal feelings of it. + |
| Ari Corsetina + | Ari Corsetina is as much a man of brooding silences as he is raucous laughter. Well into his middle ages, he's a seasoned sailor; confident in his own abilities and typically of those around him. He's easy to smile, but just as quick to anger. He does favor the drink a little bit more than one probably should, however. And does tend to turn to melancholy... + |
| Aria Gilden + | Aria is a bright personality who is nevertheless calm and levelheaded. She is kind without being giving more than she can afford and strict without being merciless. Her greatest flaw, perhaps, is that she tries to hard to be everything. Though she has a rarely seen temper it's left to be seen how strong her spirit will be when under fire. She also, some might say, takes her responsibilities far too seriously. + |
| Arian Brand + | 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. + |
| Arianna Fireviper + | Arianna used to be quite the troublemaker as a youth. She caused no small amount of headaches and disappointment for her Liege and inevitably earned a ticket to Reform school. All things must come to an end, even the childish ways of an upstart noble with a skewed sense of the world. Not a very nice place it seems for whatever she experienced there has made her a different person altogether. Where she was once brash and disrespectful she is now restrained and properly deferent. Her demeanor is a cultured one of self-respect and quiet wisdom. Even if she has managed to maintain her dark sense of humor it is easy to see that Lady Stonewood spent those long eighteen months underneath some of the greatest instructors in social charms and it shows. + |

| Arianwen Grayhope + | Perpetually stubborn and commonly pragmatic, it is little wonder that she has worked at least a decade for the stolid Chanse Grayhope himself. Of course, unlike her employer, that sturdy core frequently hides under a cheery demeanor, one perfectly suitable for a tavern wench serving mugs of ale to society's outcasts. An attitude also quickly honed to a fine dagger of command, in situations where intoxicated customers become a bit overzealous. Youthful energy and confidence only occasionally get in the way of careful ambition and an unfaltering loyalty to those she calls friends. Fitting in just fine as one of the rabble of the Lower Boroughs - and despite her superficial gentility - she can watch someone rob or knife another without batting an eye. + |
| Aric Keaton + | Aric is a very friendly and charming sort, especially if there are spirits being poured close by or in the company of women of ill, or decent, repute. Always a smile, always the one who keeps the drinks flowing, dressed in finely tailored clothing that suggest a healthy source of income but given his manners and disposition, it might not be the most acceptable source. + |
| Ariel Darkwater + | Ariel is sweet, bubbly, and even quite charming as long as everything is going her way. However if it isn't she tends to become a little bit bratty, though she isn't one to hold a grudge unless you wrong her family or her dear friends. + |
| Ariel Stonewood + | Ariel is sweet, bubbly, and even quite charming as long as everything is going her way. However if it isn't she tends to become a little bit bratty, though she isn't one to hold a grudge unless you wrong her family or her dear friends. + |
| Ariella Igniseri + | Ariella is headstrong and hilarious, quick-witted and vocal, with a tremendous force of personality behind her ambitions. She is so much a free spirit that she finds the constraints and necessities for her role as a daughter of the nobility to be a tremendous hassle. While she can -- when forced -- put on a decent enough face for a few minutes in polite company, she'd always rather be sailing, dancing, drinking, throwing a punch, or otherwise having a good time as a wild young rapscallion. She is not a complete stranger to responsibility -- the men in her charge are close to her heart and though she struggles with structure she is no pirate to decry the bounds of honor and fealty. She'd just ... rather have fun about it. + |
| Arielle Rivera + | Enthusiastic is the best way to describe Arielle Rivera's demeanor most days. She is a cheerful sort by nature and one who despises the very thought of giving up. Despite being vain and proud of her appearance she still tries to use those traits for something positive. Rather than simply critic others and boast about how nice she looks she focuses on trying to help others look nice. Her mentality is very much 'if I don't like something if going to try and fix it' she does occasionally gripe though, no one is perfect. But she makes a concentrated effort to stay productive and positive. + |
| Arik Halfshav + | While perfectly capable of interacting with southern nobles in a manner that doesn't inspire unspoken dread, Arik doesn't often bother. A warrior through and through, his is a life ruled by the sword, and it shines through in his every action, whether it be his sharp wit, piercing gaze, or willingness to thrust himself into glorious battle. The broad side of the sword has its uses however, and in Arik this can be seen through his blunt honesty and sometimes narrow-minded disdain for things that don't fit into a worldview honed by ice and stone. + |
| Arion Harrow + | Helpful, serene, and often quite curious about anything he deems interesting Arion takes his work seriously. He is an apothecary and one who enjoys experimenting with new ideas almost as he enjoys showing off the successful ideas he has had. While not a braggart he does possess a bit of pride and a touch of vanity. His friendly demeanor and soft appearance often make people underestimate him, not that he minds too much. His sharp mind and creative nature make him a somewhat formidable thinker, and this paired with his natural charm makes him into pleasant company for most. + |
| Arman Velenosa + | Arman Velenosa is calm, cool, and collected. He tends to be eight chess moves ahead of nearly everyone he knows and is an oily kind of intelligent. He prefers quiet, studying a situation for a long while before speaking, acting, or otherwise making his involvement known. But Arman most definitely is involved. If there is intrigue, he is not far behind. He may offer smiles and pleasantries, but there is always something lurking under the surface of this man. He has a somewhat feared reputation - after all, one word from him could send other, lesser Lycene houses tumbling. Arman sees the world in grays -- he is neither a good man... nor a bad one. He does what needs to be done, the ends justify the means, and he is not afraid to do what needs to be done. + |
| Armand Farshaw + | 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. + |
| Armani Gilden + | Armani is what many would call a wild child. She often throws caution to the wind and acts on what she thinks would be the best method, both for her own enjoyment and for her family. It might be a surprise that someone so impulsive, if not out of control, would take two things with the utmost seriousness: being on the seas and writing. She may border on being a pirate with her actions but she never fails to assure her crew and her ship are kept safe. Perhaps her love of reading and writing came from the long hours at sea for rarely does a time go by, when not being a captain, that she isn't writing something. She has a massive love for jewelry, it sparkles so prettily, and when she is /angry/ there is quite a proccess about removing it and she is often saying things along the lines of 'Hold my jewelry. I've lessons to teach.' It has coined her the title of 'Captain Gem' + |
| Armel Godsworn + | Armel is a man of few words. Not because he cannot think of them, for behind his dark eyes, the gleam of intelligence is obvious, but because he simply finds adding more to be superfluous. He is a man of economy of action combined with occasional explosions of energy on the battlefield. As a Knight of Solace, he is not a foul man in temper, especially to those in need or those suffering, and is in fact, willing to give all up to the shirt upon his back in such cases. It is just that he has a very defined sense of morality from his years abroad, and sticks to his beliefs and his silence, for he finds comfort in them, as well as discomfort for his enemies. + |
| Arn Telmar + | To call Arn a curmudgeon would be kind. He is gruff, mean and painfully blunt. Basically, he does not have time for your shit. All of this might make a person miss how unswervingly loyal he is to the High Lord of the Valardin. He never fit the image of the handsome heroic knight, so he has ever been the unrelenting asshole that his liege needs him to be. He is surprisingly deft and using his seemingly complete lack of social grace to put people on the defense and make them react in what are often predictable ways. He's also perfectly willing take the black eye, and the social disgrace to do the things his Prince can not. It's a persona he's crafted so meticulously over four decades that he doesn't remember being the more mild mannered youth he once was. + |
| Arta Fatchforth + | 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. + |
| Arthen Dayne + | Insatiably curious. Unshakeably brave. Questionably moral. Dayne is a creature who divides opinion. People seem to either love him or hate him, and this is usually colored by whether or not he is on their side. He's a man who covers his doubts and fears with wit and sarcasm, often creates his own rules when the actual rules don't suit him, and never gives up even when the stakes get high enough to turn most back. The line between courage and foolishness is a fine one, but it's one he strives to straddle, and it's far from the only fine line he walks for the sake of his profession. + |
| Arthur Russo + | Arthur is a good man, but not a grand one. He came from nothing and wants something, but he is not a greedy man. He is practical and knows the importance of wealth, however. Some nobles do not really understand the importance of their wealth, but Arthur grew up in the gutter, so he gets it. However, he does not want lavish riches or opulence. He would be happy to not have to scrape and scrap for each meal, and to have a comfortable bed, a woman to love, and to be able to do the craft he loves. Life, however, is never that simple, and he knows that. While he comes from a rough childhood, he has managed to keep a certain sense of hope and idealism through his worship of the Gods...specifically Jayus. He considers Jayus his patron, and many of his actions in life he views as being in service to him. He is loyal to those who earn his loyalty, and while he is not some hardcore warrior, he will shed blood to defend those he thinks require it. He is rough, but kind. Charitable, but practical. Skilled, but humble. Like any decent person, he is complicated. + |
| Artorius Magnotta + | Artorius is a quiet and kind young man. He prefers to be active and attentive, that is until he is with his family. He is often found with a sword in his hand, taking his call to the life of a soldier very seriously. Despite his kind and loving nature, a trait he shares with his sister Caelis, he possesses a fiery temper when provoked. It takes a great deal to stoke the flames of his temper but once they ignite they are hard to douse. Above all else, he values loyalty to his family and remains very protective of his kin. + |
| Artorius Malvici + | Artorius is a quiet and kind young man. He prefers to be active and attentive, that is until he is with his family. He is often found with a sword in his hand, taking his call to the life of a soldier very seriously. Despite his kind and loving nature, a trait he shares with his sister Caelis, he possesses a fiery temper when provoked. It takes a great deal to stoke the flames of his temper but once they ignite they are hard to douse. Above all else, he values loyalty to his family and remains very protective of his kin. + |
| Artur Redrain + | Artur struggles with directed focus on many things in his life because there is so much to do and learn and be. Fancies tug at him like will-o-the-wisps, and he'll chase them with all the energy of an overgrown fleethound until the next one catches his attention and turns him after it. He can frequently get cheerfully lost down logic trains that make little sense outside his own head, and also, he's very bad at jokes, not because he doesn't enjoy humor but because he tends to "get" them about twenty minutes after everyone else in the room, sometimes with a loud "Oh!" and then a now-completely-inappropriate chortling laugh. Warm and friendly, frequently hyperactive almost to a point of manic in his energy, he can be contagious in his enthusiasms, and it's very easy to get caught up with him in his energy. Sometimes people go along with his ideas only -- once out of his company and no longer subject to the Arturian common sense jamming field -- to stare around and wonder what happened. + |
| Arturo Grayhope + | Arturo is a man at odds with his occupation. He does whatever he can to scrape by -- and there is little he wouldn't do if his situation demanded it-- but he has little drive or ambition to further himself. He is demure and shy, and one can hardly get a word out of him, lest he has lute in his hand. Music is his muse and inspiration, his true love, second only to that of his most favored vice. Dust. He has an addictive personality, almost to the point of being eccentric. When something strikes his fancy, he will obssess over it to no end, only for his eye to be caught by something else a week or month later. Music and dust have been the only things to capture his attention for any length of time. Beneath the surface of his quirks and shady jobs lies a kind, smart man. He doesn't wish to hurt anyone, or take anything. But he will if that's what it takes to get the next bowl of dust. + |
| Arya Gilden + | The warning to not judge a book by its cover was clearly not coined with regards to Arden. Often found laughing or otherwise engaged in similar delights, its rare that she attempts to act mysterious. Due to this, she is sometimes more trusting than most, assuming honesty from others as she displays herself. She has a passion for the unknown, especially in attempting to document it, yet her habit of following up on every rumour means shes not as prolific as she might otherwise be. + |
| Asger Crovane + | Gregarious, and outgoing off the battlefield, Asger doesn't put much heed on the social niceties of high society, preferring simple courtesy when he can get away with it. Drawn to the randomness of chance, he is drawn to games of luck and the adrenaline that comes with gambling. + |
| Asha Espina + | Known for a sharp tongue and a fiery temper, Asha has a love for grand gestures and theatrics that lends itself well to the life of a Champion. As much as she lives for the show, outside of it she is an easy going woman, sometimes described as lazy. + |
| Asher Grayhope + | Optimistic Opportunist + |
| Asher Morrlin + | Optimistic Opportunist + |
| Ashkyr Elensar + | An ambitious and adaptable young man seeking to restore his lineage's name alongside his brother after playing a part in tarnishing the family name. Carrying himself confidently, he was rather amiable when approached despite his weathered exterior. Diligence was his watchword, his knightly vows taken rather seriously, and his sincerity and reliability knew few limits to those he'd considered a friend. + |
| Ashlinn Speare + | Depending on when one meets her they may walk away from Ashlinn thinking she's a good natured girl with an easy smile and her heart on her sleeve while another may find her a stern, foul-tempered drill sergeant. And they would both be right. Ashlinn's personality is one of extremes. She loves the Compact, she loves its people, she loves her friends and she loves her city and more than anyone she loves her compatriots in the Silver Swords and the royal family, and that love shows constantly in warm smiles and a bright disposition. It also shows in the way she brooks absolutely no shit from anyone about any of it, that she's incredibly serious when it comes to protecting the things she loves and her lack of tolerance for slacking in any form, especially from anyone who may be in her charge. Woe to the silver squire who is caught napping when they should be sanding armor or brushing horses. + |
| Ashlyn Velenosa + | She's laced with curiosity and mystery. Intrigued by the unknown and by nature. She is kind and open to those she meets, learning from others and offers insight in return. She is mysterious and always apt to hear the tales of others as she determines a way to work her way up through society. She is drawn to lore and secrets. Quiet and perhaps a bit strange and doesn't seem inclined to call herself better than others. + |
| Ashlyn Velenosa/Reflection + | She’s laced with curiosity and mystery. Intrigued by the unknown and by nature. She is kind and open to those she meets, learning from others and offers insight in return. She is mysterious and always apt to hear the tales of others as she calculates a way to work her way up through society. She is drawn to lore and secrets. Quiet and perhaps a bit strange and doesn’t seem inclined to call herself better than others. She is kind by nature and ready to aid or defend those she cares about. + |
| Ashur Sanna + | It's not that Ashur has no social graces. He simply doesn't have time for them. He worked on his impatience, truly he did. But it was hard sitting around and sipping alcohol when there was a world to uncover and understand. Determined. That was Ashur. Determined in all things; to tinker with a gadget, to find a new path, to seek a lost artifact. It was a madness, almost. A consuming thirst that would never be quenched so long as the lure of something new existed just beyond the horizon. + |
| Aslaug Winge + | Aslaug does not share much of herself with many, even her words come rare and after some contemplation. Despite this she is just as likely to answer a straight forwards inquiry with monosyllabic 'fine' as she is some poetic non-sequester. Action on the other hand Aslaug is freer with, she is a tactile creature who touches people, smells them. She saviors tastes and sounds alike. Her eyes and expressions, when allowed out from under her floppy hat's brim, are often a curious blend of interest and patience. If her mystery is deliberate or accidental it is no less the case. The wanderer leaves many more questions in the world around her than answers and seems unbothered by as much. She does not seem gleeful or to delight in the puzzle she presents to the world, it simply is, as so many other confounding things are. + |
| Asphodel Leary + | Asphodel Leary was a charming and happy child, the life of gatherings, and a fast friend. Her disfigurement has changed her, making of her presence an aloof, quiet and strange thing, prone to unwelcome observations and offputting metaphors. A young woman who was once an open book has become something of an enigma with a preference for solitude, the macabre and the hidden. Despite her trauma and seclusion she is capable of society, and those who tolerate her obliqueness may find a friend or a resilient ally offering uncommon perspective. + |
| Asralyn Venac + | In her is incapsulated all the best and worst traits of a survivor. She is quick to her own defense, cynical to take up the defense of others. Secretive, even with nothing to hide, and prone to bouts of excessive joviality and deeper depressions. A life in service to coin at the tip of a spear has robbed the young woman of much and instilled in her a taste for mindless violence and a hunger for ill-defined freedoms. She is rabble, without origin or loyalty, and where the chaos of this lifestyle takes her is fine enough a destination. + |
| Asriel Darkwater + | Oh, Asriel - brooding, brilliant, bone-tired Asriel. He isn't without his eccentricites, but whatever charm was lacking in the former Count Draevor Darkwater wasn't lost from the family line entirely. As it would turn out, it just blew into the sails of his brother instead. Which is to say Asriel Darkwater is terribly charming, or at least he can be when he wishes it. That charm is even sometimes enough to smooth over whatever strange glances he's prone to collecting when a wild idea finds itself entangled in the shroud of his frenetic, often unyielding curiosity. He can be generous or selfish by turns, caring or cold-shouldered, quite compendious or loquaciously brimming. The only constant is that he's rarely ever lost between them, showcasing himself as a creature of extremes. + |
| Asterion Havmarke + | Asterion is a harsh man, and there is little effort made to blunt that fact. His speech is low, clear, and concise, evident indicators of his low tolerance for mirth or fancy. He's quick to offer corrections, always with the appropriate level of deference, though they are typically made only once. He carries an air of authority brought about by a quiet confidence and keen understanding of natural hierarchies. Above all, though, he is a man of convictions and unwavering loyalty, walking through life as though all the Gods are watching. + |
| Astor Larrant + | Astor is a curious yet skeptical traveling apothecary and merchant who found his way into Arx somewhat recently after traveling through Arvum. As such, he is both weary and wary of travel. Though trained in the practice of an apothecary, he considers himself a 'student for life' of a relatively uncommon, yet intriguing trade. + |
| Astraea Redrain + | 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. + |
| Astraea Valardin + | 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.

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. + |
| Astrid Ulbran + | Astrid is the kind the of person that sets her mind to a goal and doesn't stop until it's complete. The first example of this was her complete makeover from an Ulbran-raised orphan to a respectable member of the priesthood. She found mentors and teachers to help with her meteoric rise, polishing off the rough edges and cultivating a reputation as warm, inviting, and earnest in her dealings with the Faithful of Arx and beyond. Very few people aren't met with an inviting smile, and everyone is shown kindness. + |
| Astyr Vanha + | Astyr has a great deal of respect for force magnifiers. It could be a lever to move a stone, an offer to move the markets, or a word to move a kingdom. She is keenly aware of how quickly circumstances can change, and how hard it can be to rebuild what was once destroyed. She has seen ruin and it has left her fiercely determined to build, to craft a wall of silver and secrets and with it shield her and hers. + |
| Aswin Ulbran + | Aswin could be described by some as cold-blooded and calculating, but the truth of the matter is that he is a creature of extreme discipline and attempted order in a world where so much of his life has been the product of wild circumstance. While his early life in the Lowers was chaos, Aswin learned to channel what order he could over what he had control of... himself. And so he considers his actions, be they in service to his family or in service to himself, carefully. Weighing the probable outcome of each action in an effort to bring about his desired result. Cynical in most cases, Aswin tends to think most matters could be settled with a blade rather than pandering around with lengthy words. + |
| Athaur Rivenshari + | Athaur is a deeply intense man that prefers to show the world his playful, carefree side, while inside he's two steps ahead of his enemies. Always seeking to find that angle, he plays people like a chess game and his strategy is rarely off. He is a man of his word but he always words things in a way that allows him to take a loophole if needed. Fiercely loyal to his people, Athaur will take on the world to keep what remains of the Rivenshari safe, even if that means going on bended knee to a Compact that he once mocked. + |
| Atherton Galeren + | Atherton is not what you might call the life of the party. He's generally gruff, relatively humorless, and a touch paranoid. A little booze will help two of those but he generally stays sober for that exact reason. More positively, he's slow to real anger, calculating, and deliberate in his actions. There's a reason he's lived this long in his line of work. + |
| Atreylan Hollowood + | 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. + |
| Atria Ulixes + | Social Justice Warrior and Cardian are not two concepts that the average Arvani would put together. This comes by, no pun intended, a scale of degrees. For a Cardian, Atria is a Social Justice Warrior. Oh, she's not out there arguing daily that the slavery is a horrible practice that must be ended; she's arguing that maybe Cardia has enough sources of slaves that Arvum doesn't have to become another one. She's not protesting that the Talons should get to have their wars and skirmishes where needed, or that the standing army needs to be slashed; no, she's arguing it's a bigger show of Cardian dominance to just fly where they want, whether they control the area or not. But most of all, Atria argues for promises kept. Nothing has ever made her so angry as a promise broken, from childhood til now. + |
| Atrid Darkwater + | Atrid is a gruff rough and tumble blunt and brutally honest man. He has no filter and will tell you what he thinks when he thinks it with no hesitation. He believes in fair play and honesty but he also has the mentality of take what you want and give nothing back live with no regrets. + |
| Auda Crown + | Scrappy, spitfire, too mouthy for her own good. Auda has survived on pure grit and determination, and it's easily seen in bright eyes and guarded postures. She's very, very slow to let people in, but that's not really rare in a city this big. Auda's quick to make acquaintances, of course, but real friends seem few and far between. + |
| Auda Florin + | Auda has survived on pure grit and determination, and it's easily seen in her bright eyes and casual confidence. She's quick to make acquaintances, generally friendly and open to socializing-- but true friends seem fewer and farther between. She's rarely far from a grin or a laugh, and seems to have a pretty sunny outlook on life for one who grew up an orphan in the Lowers. + |
| Auda Waters + | Scrappy, spitfire, too mouthy for her own good. Auda has survived on pure grit and determination, and it's easily seen in bright eyes and guarded postures. She's very, very slow to let people in, but that's not really rare in a city this big. Auda's quick to make acquaintances, of course, but real friends seem few and far between. + |
| Audgrim Veilandir + | Audgrim is a man of cynical humor and the capability to not let his emotions rule. However, he is not asocial - he can enjoy a drink with friendly people, he can tell a story and he enjoys hearing a good one. But he does not trust easily and does not open up to just anyone. From hard life experiences he may seem overly suspicious of situations most would think are harmless, a quirk that sometimes see him refusing to enter an inn, or walk down a certain street - as if he imagines monsters waiting. + |
| Audrey None (formerly Valardin) + | Audrey is not a woman of many words, the years have taught her to keep it to herself. A veritable wallflower, the warrior assumes she is not on anyone's mind and tries to play her role to perfection. Even though that paints a muted picture, observation of Audrey reveals far more beneath the surface. She is kind to those around her and she is the type to share her food with soldiers who have gotten less. She gives the time of her day to commonfolk that will talk to her and she responds to kindness with a smile and guarded warmth. The fighter is obviously a wounded woman, bearing a great burden, something some Oathlanders might recognize. Audrey bears her burden well, but if she can find respite in a good talk, she will, as acts of kindness towards her are few and far between. On the subject of kinslaying, Audrey does not speak of it. Commoners might take that as admission of guilt and some sort of shame, but silence precludes Audrey from lying. For as long as she remains silent on the subject, the truth is what others will make of it, and she will remain guilty, as she desires. + |
| Audric Crown + | Arrogant, ruthless, completely unburdened by scruples or anything with a passing resemblence to honor, Audric should not be a likable man at all. Unfortunately for the rest of the world, the sellsword captain is charming only in the way that the completely unconscionable and amoral can be. Friendly, cheerful (particularly during and after the acquisition of money), and with a base cunning that provides him with just enough empathy to guess what a mark most what to hear, the irredeemable rogue has a winning charisma that has somehow kept him alive even when absolutely surrounded by cutthroats. Afterall, he is one. + |
