Dramatic Personae:
Gaian Username: Eikre_Vrael_DarNell
Name of character: Eikre Dar'Nell
Age:21
Race: Wood Elf
Personality: Upbeat, outgoing personality ready for a challenge with a near constant smile. His optimism, however, is only tempered by his loyalty. This is his idea, and therefore it's his responsibility to bring back everyone alive. He's a little absent-minded, and compulsive, but we all have our blemishes.
Appearance: Eikre stands a full five and a half feet tall, and weighs...about 100 pounds. Given a set of electric-blue eyes filled with magic and curiosity, and messy silvery hair playing down around his chin, and a rat-tail down to his shoulderblades. He wears chain-mail shirt underneath a blue-white tunic, and similarly coloured breeches...and a pair of sunshine-coloured socks.
Biography: Eikre may have been born with a guitar in his hand, but he probably didn't learn how to play it until he was two. Regardless, Eikre led a happy life filled with music, and the occasional mayhem. His parents were basically your nearby-town hippies, and they gave musical performances every now and again, and so it was natural that Eikre would tag along, and play along some times too. It wasn't long before they noticed that magic coming out of Eikre's song, and not just the abnormal musical quality.
Weaponry: Dual Wields a basket-hilted rapier, and matching Main-Gauche. Supplemented by Arcane Spellsong.
Other Noteworthy Things: Leader of this expedition, and a budding Bard.
Gaian username: Jenna Taylor
Name of character: Karia (Kari) Felospar
Age: 21
Race: elf/human
Personality: Shy, but outgoing with friends. She likes to think things through. Rarely does she do the complusive thing and just wing it, no matter how much she'd like to.
Appearance:
Biography: Her parents were killed in a natural accident when she was younger. She was wandering around when she found a place to stay in the villae Eikre was at when he showed the map. She was overawed by the possibility and decided she was going to go.
Weaponry: sword and daggers ( and a hidden knife in her hair as a hairpin.) She's quick to draw the daggers, but not the sword and kills only in the greatest need.
Other Noteworthy Things: She has never had much experience with love and is awkward around the people who know it. She wishes for it, but knows she doesn't want it just yet. And she's a simple soul who likes nothing better than sitting in the afternoon sunshine and daydreaming the day away under a sky of blue and white clouds.

Name of character: Fayette "Faye" Arlaen
Age: 17
Race: Human
Personality: She is sometimes a big bundle of sunshine! She is usually pretty happy-go-lucky, but sometimes, she is sort of pessimistic. She does not have a split personality, but her personality changes depending on her mood. And, her mood can change very drastically. She can be hyper one moment, and sad the next. She is also quite sensitive, and hates it when people pushes her around.
Appearance:
[Link Edited In]Biography: Faye was raised by two loving parents, but her mother drowned mysteriously in a river when she was about 12. Faye suspects it was murder, but it appeared to be a 'natural' accident. Anyhow, she has been trained in hte art of swordsfighting by her father, and is very talented. And, she just happened to see Eikre's map one day, and decided she needed some adventure in her life, and so, she was going.
Weaponry: Faye has a long sword, and that is about her only weapon. But, it is the only weapon she needs. She can use a bow and arrow well, if she has one, but she is not bringing one with her on the expedition. She also can use other sorts of blades like throwing daggers, scimitars, and even maces or lances, but of course, she is not bringing all of those weapons with her. If she can grab one, then, she can improvise.
Other Noteworthy Things: Faye usually doesn't like it when elves discriminate against humans, or when humans discrimate against elves...and honestly thinks the whole idea of 'different skills' and 'ancestry' is downright stupid. She believes she can do things as good as an elf can.

Name of character: Melanie 'Lan' Draper
Age: 17
Race: Human
Personality: Lanie, who hates to be called that, has always wanted adventure. She's a trill seeker, and as long as there is no danger, she's in. She is slightly greedy however, and more than a little gold can tempt her beyond danger. Despite that flaw in her personality, she is bubbly, cheerful, and likes to have a good time. She doesn't get drunk eaisly, but when she does she's sick for days afterwards. But that doesn't stop her from having a pint.
Although she's not amazingly smart, or particularly skilled at magic, she has immense determination, and, a year and a half of living with a thief and treasure hunter, she has picked up some things about traps and the likes. She can keep an important secrets and comfort the sad. She doesn't want love, she likes flings. She's mostly illiterate, but can speak two languages.
Appearance: Lan stands about five foot four, tallish compared to the rest of her family, last she saw of them. She has a rather thin face, with a squarish jaw, that prevents her from being 'beautiful.' Her skin is tanned, testament to long hours spent outdoors doing work, playing, or just sleeping. She likes to sleep in sunshine. Her eyes are, according to her, 'plain, boring, ugly brown,' But she has never seen them dance with laughter or grow dark with anger. That's because she's not the type to stare into mirrors often. Her hair is long, and reddish, her pride, which is why she hasn't been able to cut it short. Instead it hangs in one long braid down to her lower back. Her nose is smallish, her mouth perfect for pouting, and grinning, the latter being seen more often. Her teeth are surprisingly straight for someone in those times, and rather white as well.
Lan is thin and muscular, hard labour stripping away any fat she might have had in another time. She has dressed in dresses and skirts on occasion, but mostly she favors breeches and a light shirt. She's not afraid to get dirty.
Biography: Melanie was born in a small village near a large forest. There were tales about that forest, and ever since Melanie could talk, she was constantly telling people that she was going to be a great adventurer, and going to be rich. Everyone just laughed at her and shook their heads, but her father humored her and taught her how to throw daggers. The local herb woman showed her how to recognize posions one rainy afternoon and she learned to shoot a bow at a small fair, and what she knows of hand to hand combat she learned wrestling her older brother, who later died of pox. She never really recovered from that, but she puts on a front. She left home at fifteen, sneaking on the back of a hay wagon. She entered a town, moved in with the theives for awhile before she could support herself. Because of nights at the tavern, she came to have friends of all races and genders. When the map was shown, her greed for gold and a good adventure compelled her to volunteer to come along.
Weaponry: She has several daggers, all of relativly cheap quality because she rarely gets them back. She managed to win a nice bow in cards [she cheated], and has made plenty of arrows for it. Also, she has a thin sliver of bone with poison in it, carefully tucket into her braid. It cost her a pretty penny for it.
Other Noteworthy Things: Not much at the moment.
