Rogfal

Rogfal was born deep in the heart of the Elodea forest, where the trees loom high and the creatures within are fiercely protective of their territory. His mother, a powerful beastwoman, raised him and his three siblings alone, their father having been killed in a violent altercation with a rival clan. Growing up, Rogfal learned the ways of the forest, honing his instincts and physical prowess to become a formidable warrior. His home was a simple cavern, filled with the scent of earth, moss, and beastly musk. His family led a primitive lifestyle, hunting their own food and sheltering from the elements within the dense foliage of the forest. As Rogfal entered his youth, he began to explore beyond the borders of the forest, venturing into the neighboring human kingdoms. There, he found work as a soldier, using his strength and agility to protect those in need. He quickly gained a reputation as a fierce warrior, known for his six fearsome horns, thick beard, and impressive stature. Despite his intimidating appearance, Rogfal was a gentle soul at heart. He made friends easily, connecting with those who shared his desire to protect the innocent. One of his closest confidants was a human woman named Eriana, with whom he shared a deep but platonic bond. Though he had no romantic entanglements, Rogfal lived by a strict moral code. He believed in justice, compassion, and a respect for all living things. He was known for his fairness, never engaging in excessive violence or cruelty. Today, Rogfal continues to serve as a protector, traveling between the forests and the kingdoms as needed. He is revered among both humans and beasts, hailed as a hero and leader by those who know him. His symbol is a amulet given to him by his mother, made from a rare and precious gemstone found only in the heart of the forest. Despite his many accomplishments and titles – among them, "The Horned Warrior" and "Champion of the Elodea" – Rogfal remains humble and grounded. He lives each day with a sense of purpose and dedication, never forgetting the lessons he learned in his earliest days among the trees.

Froenklin Wulnard

In the picturesque town of Artiser, exists a man who's nothing short of a living kaleidoscope, Franklin Woolnard. He is the town's jeweler, full of jovial energy, comical remarks cloaked under unshaven stubble, and wearing an assortment of extravagant hats as if each one is an extension of his exuberant soul. Many people would claim him to be extraordinary or out of the ordinary but he prefers the term “creator”. Coming from a family of modest means yet overflowing imaginations, born to a cabaret singer mother and ventriloquist father, Franklin’s upbringing was anything but usual. His familiy home was always alive with rehearsals, laughter and sprightly shows in the living-room-theater. Their lifestyle transformed their small brick house into a world of its own, an incubator for Franklin's sparkling charisma and creativity. The darker side of Franklin's past includes a forefather well known in Artiser due to his notoriety. A notorious bank robber, his ancestor's stained legacy is a shadow Franklin has learned to coexist with. Instead of hiding from it, he uses it as fuel for the jokes he spins, making light of his family’s intricate past. Franklin's way of combating past transgression with laughter and resilience has reshaped the town's perception of the Woolnards. During his early life, Franklin discovered his creative calling in a forsaken antique jewelry box at a local flea market. As he worked dedicatedly to repair it, that moment in time changed the trajectory of his life. His fascination cemented into passion; he turned his father's old toolshed into a makeshift workshop. Refurbishing relics of the past and creating sparkling new treasures, Franklin's journey from a curious mind to Artiser’s beloved jeweler bloomed. Even with his success, Franklin stays tethered to Artiser, running the local jewelry store. His tiny shop exudes a magnetism of its own, filled with gem-laced treasures, and echoing with the sound of Franklin’s infectious laughter. Intricate timepieces, heart-shaped lockets, and glittering brooches, born of his hands, narrate a thousand untold tales. As far as his private life goes, Franklin is married, his partner as vivacious and enigmatic as he. Together they have a daughter, a little carbon copy of Franklin's energetic spirit. Their familial bond appears in their many shared habits: the Sunday treasure hunts, the morning jokes at breakfast, and tucking their daughter into bed with a story that brings alive her lineage of jesters and creators. Despite his cheerful façade, Franklin has his fears. The thought of losing his hands, his main tool of creation, is his waking nightmare. It's a fear that seldom shows through his merry exterior. In such moments, a quieter side of Franklin peels away: solemn, contemplative, lending a glint of vulnerability underneath his ebullient charm. Whispers swirl around Franklin and his alleged linguistic prowess. He doesn't just speak languages, he dons them, his accent perfect, his idioms spot-on. His talent spreads beyond smithing jewels, deep into the realms of languages creating an aura of the mystical around him. With his jovial demeanor, craftsmanship, and layered past, Franklin is a symbol of resilience. His story is a testament to how humor and creativity can alleviate past shame and create a vibrant, if unorthodox, life. Through him, the town of Artiser has learned to laugh louder, dream bigger and wear their hats a bit more flamboyantly. Franklin Woolnard, with his extravagant hats, rollicking laughter, and radiant persona, remains a gem in the heart of this town. His life story, a constant reminder of the underlying magic woven into the tapestry of everyday life.

Areo Hottalar

Areo Hottalar is a notable figure in the annals of the Astendil Empire, a realm known for its lush, sprawling forests and ethereal beauty. Born during the twilight of the Silver Age, Areo comes from a long line of noble elven lineage. The Hottalar family, once revered for their proficiency in ancient magic, now bears the weight of infamy shaped by Areo's tumultuous choices. From a young age, his deep-set emerald eyes reflected a stubborn resolve. Residing in the magnificent, tree-canopied city of Eldalor, he was educated in the art of diplomacy, combat, and the preservation of elven lore. Despite excelling in these areas, he found himself overshadowed by his childhood friend, Damalion, the future ruler of the Astendil Empire. The elves of Astendil revered Damalion for his innate charisma and strategic mind, a stark contrast to Areo's often stern demeanor. Areo’s gift, however, manifests in a different form: a powerful sorcery closely tied to the essence of the forest. Since childhood, he could call upon the whispers of the ancient trees, harnessing their lifeforce for spells of healing and protection. While his talents earned him respect, they also deepened his envy toward Damalion, especially as the latter's ascent to power became inevitable. As the years flowed like seasons, the looming threat of the War of Spikes engulfed the elven lands. Rumors of encroaching darkness from the neighboring lands ignited fear among the elves of Astendil. Tensions soared, and many looked to Damalion, anticipating his leadership to ward off the impending conflict. Yet, in this time of peril, Areo’s desperation grew; he wished to grasp legitimacy and authority for himself, to rise above the shadows cast by his friend’s brilliance. The betrayal occurred one starlit night after a council meeting at the Emerald Throne, where elven leaders gathered to strategize defenses. Under the pretext of friendship, Areo lured Damalion into an ancient grove, promising insights into a powerful sorcerous artifact hidden deep within the roots of the Elder Tree. There, amid the dappled moonlight, Areo revealed his true intentions. Fueled by sorrow and a sense of inadequacy, he launched a surprise attack on Damalion, wielding dark magic he had absorbed from the very essence of the land. This act of treachery set off a chain reaction that plunged the empire into chaos. When news spread of Damalion’s fall, Areo, now drenched in blood and guilt, assumed a commendable front, promising unity and protection in the face of upheaval. But the weight of his actions haunted him, leading to a split in loyalty among the elves. On one hand, some rallied behind his seemingly resolute determination; on the other, whispers of treachery turned into rumors of a Justicar — an elf dedicated to seeking out those who commit heinous deeds against their kin. As the War of Spikes escalates, Areo’s inner turmoil becomes increasingly palpable. He dons his dark green garment, a symbol of ambition, adorned with intricate patterns that tell stories of grief and betrayal. His once-innocent heart now harbors sorrow, and those azure eyes are clouded by guilt and fear of discovery.
