Wombex

Wombex is a half-orc bounty hunter with a fierce reputation across the land. His eared and muscular physique, combined with his perpetual anger, makes him a force to be reckoned with. Birthed to an orc mother and human father, Wombex's youth was not an easy one. His mixed heritage made him an outcast, and he grew up among the fights and violence of his orc kin. However, Wombex's instincts and skill in combat were in his blood, and he soon rose to the top of the pack. Further development saw Wombex drifting from the chaos of his youth into the structured world of bounty hunting. As a warrior, he found a sense of purpose and order in hunting down those who have wronged others. But it was his anger that pushed him further, propelling him to become one of the most feared bounty hunters in the land. Today, Wombex's current occupation is tracking down criminals for a living. His motive is simple- to make enough money to live comfortably and to satisfy his bloodlust. Wombex is known for his uncompromising nature, working alone and without remorse. His enemies are many, often from the same criminal organizations he hunts, but Wombex's fearlessness and skill make him a formidable opponent. Marriage and family were always distant thoughts for Wombex, as he had no desire to share his life with anyone else. However, an unexpected encounter during a hunt led to the birth of his son. Though he does not have a traditional role in his son's life, Wombex maintains a sense of responsibility for his well-being. Wombex's life creed is simple: do not compromise, do not leave any loose ends, and do not trust anyone. As a half-orc, he has always been looked down upon and treated as subhuman, leading to a tragic event in his past. This event left Wombex with a deep sense of lack, a feeling of never truly belonging. However, he has found solace in his spell book, a treasured possession, which he keeps close at all times. Wombex's famous quote, "My anger is my strength," embodies his ruthless nature and unyielding character. When his time comes, Wombex dreams of dying in battle, his name and legacy never forgotten. However, regret lingers in his heart over the lack of time spent with loved ones, and the secret he keeps about his true motivations for becoming a bounty hunter. A symbol of strength and resilience, Wombex wears his half-orc heritage like a badge of honor, defiantly proving that he is much more than the sum of his parts. Though he may be feared and reviled by many, Wombex understands that it is his unique qualities that have made him into the warrior he is today.

Martena Rian Demate

Born when the laurel trees blossomed, Martena was left nestled in a patch of sweet woodruff outside the Forest Kin village, cooing up at the stars. The elderly herb-gatherer Otho nearly tripped over the faunling as she foraged for medicinals at dawn. Kindly Otho brought the horned foundling to the village elders. As there had not been a baby born to the kin in three seasons, they took her arrival as an omen of renewal. The villagers raised Martena as their cherished daughter. She was a blithe spirit, playing little pranks like replacing acorns with garlic bulbs she “found” under Greta the cook’s work table. For her endless questions, she was lovingly dubbed “Why Fawn” as she trailed after the tanners, weavers and hunters asking how and why. By her nineteenth summer Martena had grown into an uncommon beauty who turned heads at seasonal gatherings. Suitors traveled from afar, enticed by tales of her lively wit and generous heart, but she politely refused all courtship gifts. Martena instead devoted herself to studying medicinal arts under master herbalist Auntie Greytoes. Martena's idyllic life among the Forest Kin took an unexpected turn when a tragic accident befell the village during a fierce storm. A mighty oak, revered by the kin as a guardian spirit, succumbed to the tempest's fury, its ancient roots upended and crashing into several dwellings. Amidst the chaos and destruction, Martena, in her fervent efforts to aid the injured, inadvertently found herself blamed for the calamity by some fearful villagers. Despite her innocence, whispers of superstition cast a shadow upon her once-welcomed presence. Faced with unjust accusations and ostracization, Martena's heart weighed heavy with sorrow and betrayal. Reluctantly, she made the heart-wrenching decision to leave behind the only home she had ever known, bidding a tearful farewell to the kin who had nurtured her. Venturing forth into the unknown wilderness, Martena embarked on a solitary journey, seeking solace amidst the verdant canopy that had cradled her infancy. Her travels led her across untamed landscapes, where she encountered the motley crew of travelers led by a former monk known as Brother Elias. Among them, a pudgy dwarf named Jonh, affectionately dubbed "Big Brother" by the group, became an unexpected ally and confidant to the wandering faunling. United by shared hardships and the vagaries of fate, Martena found a semblance of belonging among this disparate band. Her healing abilities, honed through the teachings of Auntie Greytoes, proved invaluable to the group as they traversed perilous terrain and encountered diverse challenges on their journey. Under Brother Elias' tutelage, Martena found herself drawn into a web of ancient lore and spiritual teachings, delving into the realms of mysticism and enlightenment. The former monk imparted wisdom gleaned from forgotten scrolls and whispered tales of long-lost civilizations, instilling in Martena a newfound sense of purpose and understanding of the mystical tapestry that bound their destinies. As they roamed the lands, navigating treacherous paths and uncharted territories, Martena discovered that her journey was not merely a quest for redemption but an odyssey of self-discovery and resilience. She learned to embrace her past, finding solace in the companionship of kindred spirits, nurturing a newfound sense of hope and purpose amidst the uncertainty of their nomadic existence.

Cymellia

Simelia opens her eyes to a new day, rays of sunlight streaming through the small window of her modest home. The sweet scent of honeysuckle vines wafts in, a gentle reminder of the first stirrings of her childhood memories. Raised in a secluded village nestled amongst the towering peaks of the Serendine Mountains, Simelia is a half-elf of profound wisdom. The daughter of a human mother and an elven father, she embodies the best characteristics of both worlds, her keen mind imbued with the grace and magic of the elves. In her youth, Simelia learns the teachings of her ancestors, quickly becoming a well-respected student among her peers. With each excursion into the vast wilderness, she forges a deep bond with nature, developing her blossoming magical prowess. It's soon apparent that she has a rare ability to foretell the truth of a person's inner soul simply by looking into their eyes. Her mentors and those around her begin referring to her as 'The Sage of Serendine.' As all young half-elves do, Simelia eventually sets off from her village in search of a greater purpose. With each journey, she learns more about the world around her and, in turn, the depths of her own power. She stumbles upon a guild—one much like a second family that embraces her abilities fully. The Order of Everbright draws her in with open arms, its members joining her on countless adventures. Through the guild, Simelia meets many colorful characters and forges fast friendships, sometimes even deeper connections. However, within this new life finds a dark nemesis—a twisted, powerful sorcerer named Gallantry Shadeworth. Bound by an unspoken rule of the Order and haunted by a tragic event in her early travels, Simelia becomes hellbent on removing Gallantry from existence. She vows to herself that no one else plaguing this land of living myths will ever suffer at his hands again. Yet, even as she wages this war against her enemy, she finds solace in maintaining her delicate family relationships. Her mother, the tender-hearted Elise, is always a beacon of love and comfort. Her father, the enigmatic Elsilaren, remains a distant figure, his full affection hidden behind the veil of his ethereal eyes. It's in striking this delicate balance between action and reflection that Simelia creates her unique life credo. She's a warrior at heart, her veins filled with equal parts courage and kindness. In the midst of great strife, Simelia lives by her favorite quote: "In a world of darkness, be the light that cuts through shadows and guides others to safety." For her, this statement lies beyond pretty words; it's a mantra that governs her every move, shaping her as a powerful force for good. Still, even a sage must hold a few secrets. Simelia harbors a hidden knowledge, a mystery known only to her closest confidants. It bursts to life as a glow in her eyes and a strange prickle at the back of her neck. But what it means or where it leads remains uncertain—only another thrilling adventure awaits the young Sage of Serendine. And as Simelia embraces the shine of a new day, she gathers her belongings with determination in her heart and sets off once again on her whirlwind voyage of exploration and self-discovery.
