Profile Basics Name: Odell Race: Elf Gender: Female Age: 34 Rank: 1 Guild: Lumen, was physician Skills: Medical skills, leadership skills Inspired Powers: Freeze things, manipulate ice, pass through ice, cause absolute zero Influence Powers: Master Balance Weapons: Pike Appearance: http://browse.deviantart.com/?q=blonde+ice+girl#/d3533a6 Bio: Odell was brought up under very strict conditions. It obvious from the start that, while being born of two physician parents, she was not cut out to be a rank 3 citizen. From an early age she had troubles learning like the other rank 3 children and if she could not make the marks she would not become a physician like her parents. The way the system worked would mean she would dishonor her family and they would be forced to carry her as a burden and she would not be allowed to marry. Odell parent’s did all they could, short of killing her, to help her progress through school so that she could become. Somehow, after her entrance exams, she passed and went on to becoming a physician like the rest of her blood relatives. It is still unknown to her how it all happened but she was a natural. While even thought she did not contain the book smarts to comprehend all that she did, she made for a great physician. 2 years later she woke up in the middle of the night with massive amounts of pain cutting into her back. She woke up inspired by Paitrux. She has been a Lumen for 12 years now, most Lumen don’t last past 15 years before they devolve into a Leist. She tried to keep this off her mind because these days she led many of the Lumen. With many years of experience she knew what it took to train new Lumen and tend their skills into great powers. She does not still know her will but she is determined to fulfill it by helping other Lumen on Sanctasplin. This complex has driven her to a more authoritarian character but the truth is she used to be nice and caring. Maybe it was a sign of her already devolving. One thing was certain though, if anyone was going to get a job done, it was Odell.

Name: Noah Race: Ork Gender: Male Age: 20 Rank: 3 Guild: coal miner Skills: physically adept, handy with any tool, geologist Inspired Powers: regeneration of body, growth of body, multiplication of body, titan size Influence Powers: Caliber strong Weapons: gauntlets Appearance: http://browse.deviantart.com/?q=huge+ork&offset=96#/d541jsrBio:Noah life hit rock bottom as soon as he was old enough to work. Once he turned 12, making him old enough to work at the coal mines, they had him doing hard labor. The boy was always big for his age so they put him on cart pushing as soon as they could. This was one of the most physically demanding jobs as he had to push a cart along a track filled with coal or other minerals through the mine. This was something easy enough to do that they could have had a gear soldier or steam giant do but even those inanimate machines were above his guild. Not even a year later, both of Noah’s parents died in a mining accident. One of the tunnels collapsed on both his parents, killing both of them but not harming a single other person. It was a strange enough occurrence that Noah decided to investigate. He spent months of his life working hard in the coal mines and then spending his free time searching for answers. He discovered, with close examination the cave in, that the tunnel collapsing was actually triggered. Noah was convinced from that point that his parents had been murdered. Noah took this information to the Inquisitors but they wouldn’t do anything for him. Frustrated and angry, Noah rushed one of the Inquisitor’s homes and held the Lu their hostage. With Noah’s size and strength he had no problem taking down the gear soldiers with surprise on his side. Noah demanded that someone give him answers or he would kill the Lu. A Lumen arrived with the power to sense people’s intent. He was a strange and normally unseen Lumen that many feared because they did not understand him. That Lumen approached Noah and could sense a good heart. He knew he would not harm the Lu so he attacked Noah. While the Lumen carried Noah to jail, Noah explained his story. He must have been convincing because the Lumen agreed to help Noah reach peace on the subject. Both Noah and the Lumen returned to the scene of the accident. The Lumen spent some time at the base of the cave in. He began to sense everything that was happening during the incident. The Lumen came to an understanding about the situation and wasn’t quite sure what to say. Noah demanded that he hear the story. The Lumen told Noah that his parents killed themselves. They were sick of working in the coal mines and were tiered of life. They waited until Noah could take care of himself before going through with ending their own lives. The news devastated Noah. He was beside himself while hearing the tragic story. The Lumen decided to leave, giving Noah his peace, rather than take him to jail. Noah just wasn’t the same after that. He couldn’t stand to work in the mines and began thinking about killing himself as well. He had actually planned to go through with it until he was selected the 99th year tribute. Noah’s life was changed instantly. Now he is a happy go lucky brute that runs around with the other Lumen. He still has a lot of training to do but he swears he will be one of the best to compensate in Paitrux’s eyes for his parents suicide .

Name: Val Race: Floright Gender: Female Age: 29 Rank: 2 Guild: factory worker Skills: very bright, handy with any tool Inspired Powers: controls plants, plants power plant life, causes seeds to display strange properties, basically becomes Mother Nature Influence power: Form Focused Weapons: sling shot Appearance: http://browse.deviantart.com/?q=flower+fairy&offset=648#/d5ex125Bio:Val grew up never knowing her father. Her mother, a factory worker, hid the subject with a simple lie from the beginning, “your father died before you were born.” Val, while young and naïve, found comfort in these lies. She grew up along all the other rank 2 children with high spirits even admits the difficulties they faced with only her mother to take care of her. Then, in Val’s 15th year of life her mother succumbed to sickness and could no longer work. If Val’s mother did not get better soon she would have to retire early and Val would have to take her place. The young, above average girl, did not want to forgo learning as school seemed to be her natural place. She feared the worst would surly come and either her mother would die or she would be forced to take her place in the factories. Val was instead saved by something she least expected. A Lu entered her home one day and asked to see Mallory. The older man went into Val’s mothers room, not caring about the answer, and kneeled at the woman’s bed side. “Mallory how are you doing?” The Lu asked. Somehow he knew Val’s mother by name. Mallory never answered. She turned her head to face the voice but was too weak to speak. The Lu was distraught at the sight of Mallory’s sickness. Tears swelled in the man’s face. Then Mallory lifted a sickly finger toward the door of her room. The Lu turned to see what she was pointing at and found, standing in the doorway, Val. “That is your daughter.” The only words Mallory could muster. Val’s face formed a serious of confused, angry, and scared looks. Her mother had been lying to her all this time. She felt sick to her stomach. “What are you called child?” The Lu asked. “V…Val sir.” Val knew too well to respect the Lu. Even with all her fears and confusion it was easy to follow basic rules set in stone by birth. “I assume this is your mother. If so then I can also imagine that you are fatherless. You are the product of my union with you mother. This is an illegal sort so you must swear to keep it secret. Val… I am your father.” Val didn’t know what to say. She lacked the years and experience to conjure the words needed to express herself. Val was speared the early draft into the factories so she could continue learning the sciences. She kept her word and her secrets for this exchange. 4 more years passed but her mother was not getting better. Val knew she was suffering and wanted to end Mallory’s suffering in some way. She decided to visit the Lu to see if he could do something. “I have been waiting for this day Val. There is a path for you that will allow you to save your mother. I have been shown it by Paitrux. Tell me Val, is this the path you wish to take? It must be your choice.” “Yes. I will do anything to save my mother.” Suddenly a light exploded through the shrine and Val was inspired. The powers given to her by Paitrux was a seed of life. “Now go and save your mother!” The Lu said. Val was indifferent. She was unsure what to do at this point. It was way too convenient being turned into a Lumen because she asked to save her mother and then given the power to give life. She feared that this was her will and if she saved her mother she would become a Lumight. Faced with the difficult decision Val chose not to save her mother. She finished her dying mother with the tip of a knife and then explained to the Lu that she was dead before Val ever got back to her house. The Lu was convinced but Paitrux was not pleased. Val could feel the shift in her body and her seeds now took life rather than saved them.

Name: Hudson Race: Goblin Gender: Male age: 40 Rank: 3 Guild: Foresters Skills: Strength, illiterate, uneducated, navigation, use to being on Librium Inspired Powers: Blood weapons Influence Powers: Form Strong Weapons: razor blades Appearance: Hudson (standing goblin)what he normally wears...as a LumenBio: Hudson was born on Librium. While he was still a baby a group of Lu priests were traveling the surface on a quest for a lost artifact of one of the legendary Lumen when they came across the village that Hudson was born into. While passing through the village one of the priests came across baby Hudson and felt it was his duty to raise Hudson to Librium for some greater purpose. The priests stole Hudson away from his family and whisked him back to Sanctasplin; however, no matter how much the Lu priest warned the high priests about Hudson's destiny none believed him. However the high priests took pity on Hudson and allowed for him to stay blessed in Sanctasplin, in the 3 rank of course. Being a natural walker of Librium they saw it fitting that he take to the forests and bring the good followers of Paitrux wood and timber for their fireplaces, it was the least a filthy goblin could do for being risen up to Sanctasplin. As Hudson grew up he learned to keep his head down. Even among the rank 3s a nonchosen race was rare. Never learning how to read, or do much of anything Hudson was just thankful to be in a safe place like Sanctaspllin. He even came to fear the legends of the people he was born into. As times grew tough and food scarce Hudson found it hard to live. The paymasters always paid him last, which meant they was not usually enough left to cover his full day's wage. In the ration lines he was give the bottom of the barrel if anything at all. As time grew on Hudson found himself tempted to do the unthinkable, steal food. It was a crime to steal, especially something as life giving as food, but he was so hungry. Starving for weeks eventually Hudson passed a chicken sitting on a plate to an outdoor cafe. No one was around, and Hudson hadn't eaten in days. Finally he had to give into the temptation and stole off with the chicken, what he didn't see was the steam guard faded into a side alley a bit away from the restaurant. Captured the food turned out to belong to no other than a Lu High Inquisitor. Enraged that a filthy goblin who had been blessed by Paitrux's goodwill would steal from him the Inquisitor sentence Hudson to 20 years in penance. For 19 years Hudson suffered the wrath of the inquisition being tortured in the mourning and driven hard as slave laborer in the afternoon turning out the endless amounts of steel and iron that Sanctasplin required. 19 years is the centennial tribute selection and Hudson's life would never be the same again.

Name: Fiona Race: Human Gender: Female age: 16 Rank: 3 Guild: Berry picker Skills: literate, intelligent, nimble Inspired Powers: none Weapons: none Appearance: FionaBio: Fiona is a human born into the third rank. Her mother was a forage, picking berries to fill the Lu and rank 1 tables. Living in the same harsh life that Hudson comes from Fiona grew up with rather smart parents. Somehow they managed to teach her how to read and do her numbers. She learned more than the basic laborer knew, but was not properly educated by any means. When she was 10 her parents were killed by a group of raiding Deminaughts who terrorized the crews of Sanctasplin whilst they worked on the surface of Librium. Alone Fiona somehow managed to keep herself alive, living on the streets and in the gutters.

Name: "The Priest", "Old man", "Father", or "Sir" Race: Elf Gender: Male Age: 70 Rank: Lu Guild: Lu Priest Skills: Literate, intelligent, knowledge of religion, knowledge of science and history Inspired: none Weapons: none (maybe a staff/walking stick if anything) Apperance: The PriestBio: The Priest is a Lu Priest who has served Paitrux since he was a young boy. So old he barely remembers his parents. All he remembers is his work for Paitrux. Never rising to a high rank The Priest choose the truely humble life of watching over and pastoring the rank 3 members of Hudson's ghetto. He always had some spare food, a spare bed, even a spare pair of shoes for those in need. He turned none away from his door. He watched over them and heard about their problems and did whatever he could to console them and has for years. Years ago while on a quest on the surface of Librium The Priest found a little goblin in one of the villages they passed through. For some odd reason The Priest felt that he had to save this boy, to take him back to Sanctaspin and bring him to the light of Paitrux. And he did just that. In fact he is the local preist of Hudson's district for that reason, however Hudson has no idea that it was that priest that saved him. The Priest has always taken a special interest in Hudson, always watching him from afar. As Hudson aged The Priest didn't reveal that he was Hudson's savior, it wasn't time to reveal that. The two had little direct interaction, but Hudson knew of his existance, just didn't know what The Priest had done for him. (The Priest can be a major character in the storyline if he fits, or he can just be a side character acting as Hudson's mentor/guide. It is up to you.)

Name: Felix Race: Shango (monkey like people) Gender: male age: 22 Rank: 2 Guild: Gear soldier maintenance Skills: handy with tools, basic engineering, nimble Inspired Powers: ghost phase(pass through inanimate things), spectral phase (pull other people through inanimate things), litch phase(can hold himself in ghost phase without walking through something), reaper phase (pass through living things, this kills living thing) Influence Powers: No Influence Weapons: dagger Appearance: http://browse.deviantart.com/?q=monkey+warrior#/d4mon39Bio:Felix was always a rather gloomy guy. His social skills were a bit off; where he wouldn’t be able to joke or connect with people like others did. This led Felix to live a quiet, lonely, and life of solitude between work and home. Even though he was awkward and hard to understand emotionally, the man was brilliant. He wasn’t a rank 1 so he couldn’t be an engineer but he certainly had the talent for it. Felix had even been physically punished in front of the factory for correcting an engineer on their work. He couldn’t help it though. He was just so interested in the mechanics of things. One day while fixing up some gear soldiers Felix decided that he would stay late and design a new model of gear soldiers that would be more efficient and stronger. He snuck back in after hours and began to work on his design. He had the prototype finished by the time the authorities caught on. They surrounded the building and then sent in their gear soldiers to collect who ever had been messing in the factory. Scared, Felix turned on his prototype to defend himself. The prototype was so good it killed off all of the other gear soldiers. It didn’t stand a chance against a group of Lumen though and was dismembered once they showed up. The group shredded every bit of Felix’s work, calling it unfit and unholy because it did not fit with Paitrux’s ways. Felix lost complete hope in the world that night. Varkannon visited Felix in his jail cell after hearing how he got there. Varkannon attempted to speak to Felix but the Shango would not cooperate. Felix was done with society, with speaking to others; he just wanted to spend his time in his own imaginary world. Then a bright light fired from Varkannon’s staff and it engulfed Felix. Varkannon was just as shocked as Felix when the Shango became inspired. Felix jerked around while confused, angry, and scared. What did this mean for him? “You are free now,” Varkannon says in a high tone as though something had occurred to him that no one else would understand. “Nothing matter…just leave me alone.” “Your right Felix, nothing matter but this. You are free from your apathy because you have now received the gift of purpose. Nothing but that purpose matters anymore.” “Yeah and what is that?” Felix turned to face Varkannon as though the Luminary was negotiated something of great interest. Varkannon began to tell Felix what his will was and what he would need to do to get there. Since then Felix has been in Varkannon’s services as a proud Lumen.

Name: Shelia Race: Piplup Gender: female age: 12 Rank: 2 Guild: never reached Skills: none that are defined Inspired Powers: teleportation, teleporting others, precognition (2X speed of teleportation), déjà vu Influence Powers: Form master Appearance: http://browse.deviantart.com/?q=chipmunk+girl#/d4vzvwjBio: Not much is known about Shelia. She was inspired by age 7 as the 95th year tribute. Her parents were sad to let her go at such a young age but they found comfort in the fact that she had been chosen into a powerful role. Shelia showed much promise even within her first year as a lumen. She had mastered teleportation by the end of that year. However, she was still not that dangerous with her power at full strength.
