Height: 177415Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡH34tMxyXJc
Hair colour: Black415Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡswPBUOrHih
Eye colour: Yellow415Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHyUTnF5Db3
Weight: 33 - 2
Adopted from an early age by the modest Elgo family, it is rumoured even to415Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡup2AbYCkGa
this day, that she was originally of noble origin. Like most, the path that led her to415Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlHTvFHOsCp
eventually serve in the Hand is shrouded in rumours and speculations, but she is the415Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUwx2sLUYcT
first Human woman to do so - and that alone is quite the feat.415Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkA3tbJC6Y5
With her raven hair and yellow eyes bordering on orange, she has proven her worth415Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrMbjz2uFxt
time and again and while being extremely capable of felling most opponents in combat415Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡc9lvza5LGQ
with her agility and her speed - her main weapon of choice being the whip - her main415Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdhicf0MmBM
importance lies elsewhere.415Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDClbIHnLSk
Her most notorious skill lies in linguistics for, after showing a clear aptitude, she415Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡklIpPJYYj8
has been trained from the very start to speak any idiom; this includes even the ability415Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoNdxDmkzxl
to translate the ancient Centra texts just as easily, if not more so, than most reputed415Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCir33ncJCm
scholars.415Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlshby8Kf7d
This ability alone makes her an invaluable member of the team but there is much415Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnniiLwD3aU
more to her. Deena can also be seen, frequently, as the calmest and most collected of415Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1ocOWWpVna
the four serving under Dhanel Marce.

Harigar Rhim
Height: 184415Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3bf7fLEZC3
Hair colour: White415Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTxD5A8Am1O
Eye colour: Pale Blue415Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOY7sauBu99
Weight: 46 - 4
Completely dressed in black and with tattoos of the same colour all over his face415Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡa43hBjG5P8
that so strongly contrast with his white hair. This extraordinary swordsman entered415Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrD5B2FHgyB
these elite ranks years ago and he did not do so at a young age.415Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsFKELP956P
He was already a fully-grown man when he came to the castle to volunteer himself.415Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcskgqhsc4P
He originates from the tribal village of Naruun, deep within the vast deserts to415Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡD9dDFUbxXa
the south where tattoos, and other more ritualistic expressions, are a tradition.415Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2MHmSchNwu
The ones on his face are proud symbols of a successful rite of passage and while usually415Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRzvoriSYQ0
such brands are forbidden within the Human military branch, his skill was such that415Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡB3hvGF8d5h
Hervies simply could not pass on it.415Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1wULCQ6rB5
As for weaponry, he favours but the one: a thin-bladed sword holding the powers of415Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡz6nVMwtkPJ
lightning and one which he is most skilled with! His somewhat elongated fingernails415Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDIwSC23Jnj
on the hand that wields it are a testament to his abilities, but his skills as a swordsman415Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4GYS0oiD5G
are not his only strength.415Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡW3WYGMF5Sp
Harigar Rhim also has the ability to understand and pick apart any known piece of415Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjhrKZ2nmdl
technology. He has even been successful when paired against Nharkim tech making415Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiIfQaL8Pl8
him not only one of the best soldiers but also one of the best engineers any team could415Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHZ4VZipLxe
ever hope to have around.415Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvOAvI3rqTU
Any life he might have previously owned is now shrouded in mystery - could he415Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNCgbhIIkKo
have been someone important prior to joining?415Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxSuz959bta
A prince or a thief perhaps? Did he come seeking, or running?415Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYcHxfAwE1v
A story for him alone to carry.

Celle Erbe
Height: 182415Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNOfdcCmFSh
Hair colour: Red and Blue415Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoIdbTWyU5d
Eye colour: Pale Blue415Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKbe8oRXFhe
Weight: 37 - 2
Most of the things concerning Celle have always been kept a secret to all, even to415Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4vdGGsxivN
those she serves with.415Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQSH9MByRb0
And what very little is known about her background is thanks to Dhanel Marce415Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡloajl3dijp
and his persistence in always wanting to know about those who are to work with him.415Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuNi1RdmoaZ
It is even rumoured that Dhanel Marce first refuted the Human king’s direct order of415Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCFY44LnOqV
having Celle join him and his men, regardless of her power and promise.415Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw1pNUUjrs4
Truth or nay, only two can say, but the fact remains that to this day so much mystery415Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYoWDplgowl
still surrounds her.415Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiWn0IWin8W
The supposed last descendant of a bygone race. The Elvorides, once the guardians of415Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV6xB2fYYwF
many treasures of the ancient world, the preservers of older things now left forgotten,415Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXCzIxLFFrC
keepers of memory; but they were also the most gifted amongst all species when it415Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRBATfBfhSx
came to the handlings of natural powers... or magic as the common folk once deemed415Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSHZWi1nKWv
to name it...415Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvUlXd8vEyy
The Elvorides were at the very top, once, before all that technology and stolen415Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡr5i0B47n2g
knowledge came gallivanting into the hands of the lesser races effectively dethroning415Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgu8U6Cs1cb
them until they were heard from no more.415Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2fU9R3WwQz
As the last of her kind, Celle possesses unique strengths making her most formidable415Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzmvEjIuX6W
on almost all fronts. In combat, she carries with her a strangely designed staff, a weapon415Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡr7j1Tw1fMO
created by the best, working under Human rule and built following ancient schematics.415Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBWgGXnBXKi
A weapon to supposedly help her control and channel her inherited powers; a gift that415Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡojhdUFXieu
unlike any other here is meant more for focus rather than augmentation.415Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfyaAFpMjQA
Thus, unlike the rest, she is not mainly dependent on her weapon to charge into415Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfFZnfrs9jV
battle; she does not need it nor any other enhancements to call forth some of the more415Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYvQsGHon5u
unnatural ways at her disposal. She can be just as deadly while battling completely415Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2PHgg4crlx
naked for her power is herself and as such, she usually deems others as inferior.415Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3TANr4Ccc0
It would seem then to most, after mere moments of witnessing her, that there is415Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOYwchFughL
nothing that Celle cannot do.

Lorian Krass
Height: 182415Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiiwwNmD3FU
Hair colour: Pitch Black415Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlseqmR5BjA
Eye colour: Green415Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrkANeE5GYz
Weight: 45 - 4
Found a few years back as the sole survivor of a burning village to the West by415Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡK1pbvfP5DL
veteran soldiers stationed in a nearby garrison. As reports go, the men spotted the415Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1owImaJHdk
sudden, tall fires from afar and came as fast as they could, but by the time they got415Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡo3BpebiJFC
there they found nothing but charred stones and burnt pieces of wood.415Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUZBaTbGRWT
Corpses of animals and farmers too, plenty of them, laid strewn across the streets415Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡut0BwFjauS
and rundown houses.415Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnWY2jZnyVo
Still, following the mandates of duty they scouted and searched without hope with415Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZvcy7Vb6Jc
the ever-gnawing doubts always on their minds... questions like...415Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBpabmrpHbB
What were they supposed to do? How were they to report this?415Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnrPjcA07CO
Thoughts swirling inside their heads, but then all of that came to a stop when one415Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXwdGuqFmHy
of the men ahead began to repeatedly shout something – a survivor?415Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjTSXDBlw4B
Impossible, and yet it was true.415Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqw6eqlMq7a
They all ran to meet him; a confused and naked young man sweating profusely,415Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeGifZz2ar7
without any clothes or memory, his body so cold to the touch. Thus, the quiet survivor415Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKeA2tRfm5T
was brought back to their garrison. They tried to question him while waiting for415Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡETyaUqqIEB
instructions from the castle, but one can only go so far with a man without voice or415Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjNDLVE1P97
memory. By direct word of his majesty, he was to stay a few more years in that garrison,415Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8HCMiMm888
under the tutelage of captain Krass who was to instruct him in all sorts of ways until415Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmlCszCdfeg
the time would come for him to be brought to the castle. As for the reasoning of such415Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3tEbUGueAf
a mysterious fire, no concrete answer was ever found – those that were witness to it415Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSaP0iL9ikv
reported it as they saw it. In time most learned to toss it up as the doings of a phenom*415Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzGfaIdeTuh
or something else of an uncanny nature.415Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡexa8WyYwPL
Due to his time under Krass’s tutelage - the man who would also name him -415Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu9nUBKPrCR
Lorian, developed many skills before he was summoned to the castle: he is a master415Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡm9OS3k8Sbq
tracker the likes the Hand never had, he is also an expert on biology and botany, as415Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRCQInLewHF
well as most capable of crafting, and healing, most known poisons.415Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7ycJB0i1Sd
In combat, he favours the usage of light armour sacrificing protection for a higher415Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0t2RfuczSP
speed of movement much like Harigar Rhim, but unlike Harigar, Lorian is not a415Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMDd7gLwhSi
straight-out swordsman. Instead, he relies on a curved blade named ´kagra´, a weapon415Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmwWFyh05lo
that was usually paired with a buckler but now one very seldom seen as they stopped415Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsDnu4GeqkH
being produced since the last war.415Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXSprJLqWam
When not hiding his face with a hood, Lorian displays short black hair with a few415Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ74NFYjxXFy
brown stripes in front that are longer than the rest, a somewhat stern face despite his415Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡV79LNND9Q6
relative youth and a pair of determined green eyes.415Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6KLY7IeK7x
He never speaks; his voice was never once heard since he was found, never a word415Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBuRLvZnxPg
and whether this is by trauma or by choice, is to this day still undetermined.

Height: 188415Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTTdAMU8PU5
Hair colour: Golden415Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVAKrtoE1HT
Eye colour: Blue415Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmpIYiAp9fY
Weight: 48 - 4
Finally, in charge of them as it always has been, a hero-like figure through and415Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡk1irwejXpb
through.415Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5KfjHj986s
Blonde flowing hair and pale blue eyes escorting his fair skin that often can be seen415Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOA3Q5BMdKi
stained with flowered scars.415Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfOmDvF06vy
Many are the tales surrounding Dhanel Marce and while arguably they are415Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLno9uiieFw
supported by some popular folklore, all of them share the same principle of being415Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeGzAlevAho
portents of great bravura. Stories growing so popular that they become almost like415Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEiKl6DbSym
those epic tales one can find in the narrations of those with wilder imaginations,415Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvjpJKu2vjN
as they get passed across mouth and land.415Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYK2jFmzXi1
Tales such as his latest venture where he singlehandedly went deep down into a cave415Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8Jh6tF1F1m
of Zabduans - Human tribes that evolution seems to have missed and are renowned415Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLP8wBIFATA
for their fierce, and some even say, cannibalistic ways - to save a dame left there for415Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcY7POdHCyG
some sort of sacrificial rite. A cave deep in the Pedenke jungles a place far from any415Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoAyliIlozw
soldier’s orders.415Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeVPky0PrG9
And that is but the latest.415Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiKregVR7aa
So, it seems that the undisputed leader of the five, the thumb in that kingly hand, is415Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCgrSd6Aar5
a man willing to go the extra distance to do what is right.415Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcz7nm4tKl3
The instructions he gives might often not be his own but of his king’s, but he seems415Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9V1GYAe3ww
to always manage to deliver them with a certain power that makes him an easy man415Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJNVT0Depa3
to follow.415Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuXP0QGxJww
Dhanel Marce is a man that irradiates confidence and assurance as only the leader415Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡy2U7lHA4Rk
of the Hervies’s Hand can and so, having told all of this, it must be noted that this415Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpe1B7iTWby
