Height: 177305Please respect copyright.PENANA4ArMvz6N4v
Hair colour: Black305Please respect copyright.PENANAaenrm9o4KM
Eye colour: Yellow305Please respect copyright.PENANAgHuCAgIIwm
Weight: 33 - 2
Adopted from an early age by the modest Elgo family, it is rumoured even to305Please respect copyright.PENANA8c4VekB2Xl
this day, that she was originally of noble origin. Like most, the path that led her to305Please respect copyright.PENANAYddmgyNth7
eventually serve in the Hand is shrouded in rumours and speculations, but she is the305Please respect copyright.PENANAcU5RzPZNPt
first Human woman to do so - and that alone is quite the feat.305Please respect copyright.PENANACajSmCIeNk
With her raven hair and yellow eyes bordering on orange, she has proven her worth305Please respect copyright.PENANAJDjDI0Dp3K
time and again and while being extremely capable of felling most opponents in combat305Please respect copyright.PENANA91GXaMSrvj
with her agility and her speed - her main weapon of choice being the whip - her main305Please respect copyright.PENANAfJFmxX42wh
importance lies elsewhere.305Please respect copyright.PENANAHzGZg3n5Lv
Her most notorious skill lies in linguistics for, after showing a clear aptitude, she305Please respect copyright.PENANAdMjDFIoUnb
has been trained from the very start to speak any idiom; this includes even the ability305Please respect copyright.PENANAX87jkI0jSi
to translate the ancient Centra texts just as easily, if not more so, than most reputed305Please respect copyright.PENANAgG8gGiwqCW
scholars.305Please respect copyright.PENANAod9jRztF1c
This ability alone makes her an invaluable member of the team but there is much305Please respect copyright.PENANAbXA4VhQ14H
more to her. Deena can also be seen, frequently, as the calmest and most collected of305Please respect copyright.PENANA4LdTkFU3cx
the four serving under Dhanel Marce.

Harigar Rhim
Height: 184305Please respect copyright.PENANAKyr2z3oJGv
Hair colour: White305Please respect copyright.PENANAx8BzxQDLah
Eye colour: Pale Blue305Please respect copyright.PENANA26Y2MNVzcX
Weight: 46 - 4
Completely dressed in black and with tattoos of the same colour all over his face305Please respect copyright.PENANAHQ5plyQuLZ
that so strongly contrast with his white hair. This extraordinary swordsman entered305Please respect copyright.PENANA3SR38bWTxz
these elite ranks years ago and he did not do so at a young age.305Please respect copyright.PENANAlFWfjm2UAm
He was already a fully-grown man when he came to the castle to volunteer himself.305Please respect copyright.PENANA4Xewz3o6D2
He originates from the tribal village of Naruun, deep within the vast deserts to305Please respect copyright.PENANA9jbSTw6yrr
the south where tattoos, and other more ritualistic expressions, are a tradition.305Please respect copyright.PENANA4yofbRWaIA
The ones on his face are proud symbols of a successful rite of passage and while usually305Please respect copyright.PENANAdNvdtFjF6e
such brands are forbidden within the Human military branch, his skill was such that305Please respect copyright.PENANA1iB7uJWIaR
Hervies simply could not pass on it.305Please respect copyright.PENANABQt02AFDoa
As for weaponry, he favours but the one: a thin-bladed sword holding the powers of305Please respect copyright.PENANA2d6OoOLfDP
lightning and one which he is most skilled with! His somewhat elongated fingernails305Please respect copyright.PENANAzM4CkYawYO
on the hand that wields it are a testament to his abilities, but his skills as a swordsman305Please respect copyright.PENANAO8e2Fz6cl3
are not his only strength.305Please respect copyright.PENANAvErrzlfO8R
Harigar Rhim also has the ability to understand and pick apart any known piece of305Please respect copyright.PENANA7E3V2wo0Cu
technology. He has even been successful when paired against Nharkim tech making305Please respect copyright.PENANAcKlMKdUdtv
him not only one of the best soldiers but also one of the best engineers any team could305Please respect copyright.PENANAmoIwWF9IJ7
ever hope to have around.305Please respect copyright.PENANA1tDRXcMWyB
Any life he might have previously owned is now shrouded in mystery - could he305Please respect copyright.PENANAi0lyWPnUmB
have been someone important prior to joining?305Please respect copyright.PENANAT9k8zx0BLt
A prince or a thief perhaps? Did he come seeking, or running?305Please respect copyright.PENANAkCMHSd9A1S
A story for him alone to carry.

Celle Erbe
Height: 182305Please respect copyright.PENANAUFWCXBOCAM
Hair colour: Red and Blue305Please respect copyright.PENANATJCPBRNDnj
Eye colour: Pale Blue305Please respect copyright.PENANARKOMflxFM8
Weight: 37 - 2
Most of the things concerning Celle have always been kept a secret to all, even to305Please respect copyright.PENANAnntSbn8x8g
those she serves with.305Please respect copyright.PENANA97oMzxFj7T
And what very little is known about her background is thanks to Dhanel Marce305Please respect copyright.PENANAuzLOapGI3y
and his persistence in always wanting to know about those who are to work with him.305Please respect copyright.PENANADrK2wB1fsO
It is even rumoured that Dhanel Marce first refuted the Human king’s direct order of305Please respect copyright.PENANA1jRzBPHvDx
having Celle join him and his men, regardless of her power and promise.305Please respect copyright.PENANA1hanRyjP8p
Truth or nay, only two can say, but the fact remains that to this day so much mystery305Please respect copyright.PENANABRw5bC6vu8
still surrounds her.305Please respect copyright.PENANAmd26x8bpUs
The supposed last descendant of a bygone race. The Elvorides, once the guardians of305Please respect copyright.PENANAsljGeUXQKE
many treasures of the ancient world, the preservers of older things now left forgotten,305Please respect copyright.PENANAiWZWizmLTH
keepers of memory; but they were also the most gifted amongst all species when it305Please respect copyright.PENANACvXNl2evj1
came to the handlings of natural powers... or magic as the common folk once deemed305Please respect copyright.PENANAI5qAPAafFV
to name it...305Please respect copyright.PENANA5yBSMxYVCD
The Elvorides were at the very top, once, before all that technology and stolen305Please respect copyright.PENANArPoVpqufUQ
knowledge came gallivanting into the hands of the lesser races effectively dethroning305Please respect copyright.PENANA2YsNKv50Ku
them until they were heard from no more.305Please respect copyright.PENANA1l4gDHVhts
As the last of her kind, Celle possesses unique strengths making her most formidable305Please respect copyright.PENANAW1b7hmvpUT
on almost all fronts. In combat, she carries with her a strangely designed staff, a weapon305Please respect copyright.PENANAXBUViz6P6w
created by the best, working under Human rule and built following ancient schematics.305Please respect copyright.PENANAhtdUKc909K
A weapon to supposedly help her control and channel her inherited powers; a gift that305Please respect copyright.PENANAl4gcoTcU8R
unlike any other here is meant more for focus rather than augmentation.305Please respect copyright.PENANA4409F8aEAe
Thus, unlike the rest, she is not mainly dependent on her weapon to charge into305Please respect copyright.PENANAcrpAkYixFJ
battle; she does not need it nor any other enhancements to call forth some of the more305Please respect copyright.PENANAIsrqbNxouz
unnatural ways at her disposal. She can be just as deadly while battling completely305Please respect copyright.PENANAl5s9B4V94i
naked for her power is herself and as such, she usually deems others as inferior.305Please respect copyright.PENANAoG16lSEH8R
It would seem then to most, after mere moments of witnessing her, that there is305Please respect copyright.PENANASR0Tdoie9R
nothing that Celle cannot do.

Lorian Krass
Height: 182305Please respect copyright.PENANAvUR1cTPRiY
Hair colour: Pitch Black305Please respect copyright.PENANAGjOp3Bu3ld
Eye colour: Green305Please respect copyright.PENANAwwK6gbfBRN
Weight: 45 - 4
Found a few years back as the sole survivor of a burning village to the West by305Please respect copyright.PENANA3sAPFsV2Zp
veteran soldiers stationed in a nearby garrison. As reports go, the men spotted the305Please respect copyright.PENANAEWGATedhoY
sudden, tall fires from afar and came as fast as they could, but by the time they got305Please respect copyright.PENANAsmMJKSRZKA
there they found nothing but charred stones and burnt pieces of wood.305Please respect copyright.PENANAA2RGRgj8FR
Corpses of animals and farmers too, plenty of them, laid strewn across the streets305Please respect copyright.PENANAppnxK2OwFq
and rundown houses.305Please respect copyright.PENANAirXxtZ9Bz7
Still, following the mandates of duty they scouted and searched without hope with305Please respect copyright.PENANA93ogjuRaRK
the ever-gnawing doubts always on their minds... questions like...305Please respect copyright.PENANA2ntOILPs4w
What were they supposed to do? How were they to report this?305Please respect copyright.PENANALxDQ0Hw8Bf
Thoughts swirling inside their heads, but then all of that came to a stop when one305Please respect copyright.PENANAOBgKDVUcLx
of the men ahead began to repeatedly shout something – a survivor?305Please respect copyright.PENANA9AjSAyA0ne
Impossible, and yet it was true.305Please respect copyright.PENANANA1L13AtOV
They all ran to meet him; a confused and naked young man sweating profusely,305Please respect copyright.PENANAM4gw48NS1N
without any clothes or memory, his body so cold to the touch. Thus, the quiet survivor305Please respect copyright.PENANAfKNuM17ZWA
was brought back to their garrison. They tried to question him while waiting for305Please respect copyright.PENANAHAw6TfRxls
instructions from the castle, but one can only go so far with a man without voice or305Please respect copyright.PENANAVFiDXOzNaE
memory. By direct word of his majesty, he was to stay a few more years in that garrison,305Please respect copyright.PENANAelJVsj65gz
under the tutelage of captain Krass who was to instruct him in all sorts of ways until305Please respect copyright.PENANAQkhjaW0c3B
the time would come for him to be brought to the castle. As for the reasoning of such305Please respect copyright.PENANASBbfP6KYYk
a mysterious fire, no concrete answer was ever found – those that were witness to it305Please respect copyright.PENANAteVA2LCdcP
reported it as they saw it. In time most learned to toss it up as the doings of a phenom*305Please respect copyright.PENANA7yUPem1Qjx
or something else of an uncanny nature.305Please respect copyright.PENANASAoKCzSBQK
Due to his time under Krass’s tutelage - the man who would also name him -305Please respect copyright.PENANAf2dkM4o7tB
Lorian, developed many skills before he was summoned to the castle: he is a master305Please respect copyright.PENANAZ84IXgeolT
tracker the likes the Hand never had, he is also an expert on biology and botany, as305Please respect copyright.PENANArr8QXwK400
well as most capable of crafting, and healing, most known poisons.305Please respect copyright.PENANAqbYezdu1CT
In combat, he favours the usage of light armour sacrificing protection for a higher305Please respect copyright.PENANARKxl2ZMPC1
speed of movement much like Harigar Rhim, but unlike Harigar, Lorian is not a305Please respect copyright.PENANAtJy8quyENM
straight-out swordsman. Instead, he relies on a curved blade named ´kagra´, a weapon305Please respect copyright.PENANAqFTCjEakra
that was usually paired with a buckler but now one very seldom seen as they stopped305Please respect copyright.PENANAdKxZIKL3v7
being produced since the last war.305Please respect copyright.PENANAKNLAbg2sj9
When not hiding his face with a hood, Lorian displays short black hair with a few305Please respect copyright.PENANAuUJ8M4UMd6
brown stripes in front that are longer than the rest, a somewhat stern face despite his305Please respect copyright.PENANAcjZZ2xoJc8
relative youth and a pair of determined green eyes.305Please respect copyright.PENANAPBLbjcgLBG
He never speaks; his voice was never once heard since he was found, never a word305Please respect copyright.PENANACa4BlhEtm8
and whether this is by trauma or by choice, is to this day still undetermined.

Dhanel Marce
Height: 188305Please respect copyright.PENANAi74sOSTnJD
Hair colour: Golden305Please respect copyright.PENANALtFyuBlDR6
Eye colour: Blue305Please respect copyright.PENANA4uNRka5njP
Weight: 48 - 4
Finally, in charge of them as it always has been, a hero-like figure through and305Please respect copyright.PENANAEpMnwj9Cwy
through.305Please respect copyright.PENANAEhXWhGyTbg
Blonde flowing hair and pale blue eyes escorting his fair skin that often can be seen305Please respect copyright.PENANAZjcnzzZQn9
stained with flowered scars.305Please respect copyright.PENANAYIul2YcAiZ
Many are the tales surrounding Dhanel Marce and while arguably they are305Please respect copyright.PENANAe2q1UBQcIM
supported by some popular folklore, all of them share the same principle of being305Please respect copyright.PENANACe4UnyMmfq
portents of great bravura. Stories growing so popular that they become almost like305Please respect copyright.PENANAFgs5cnzm0W
those epic tales one can find in the narrations of those with wilder imaginations,305Please respect copyright.PENANAC2IKBbOKWz
as they get passed across mouth and land.305Please respect copyright.PENANAaPwRKOgW0I
Tales such as his latest venture where he singlehandedly went deep down into a cave305Please respect copyright.PENANA93npndeZGW
of Zabduans - Human tribes that evolution seems to have missed and are renowned305Please respect copyright.PENANAN7pzBFVGBm
for their fierce, and some even say, cannibalistic ways - to save a dame left there for305Please respect copyright.PENANAIq4Sye6tUF
some sort of sacrificial rite. A cave deep in the Pedenke jungles a place far from any305Please respect copyright.PENANAxn2hgfpgzc
soldier’s orders.305Please respect copyright.PENANADkZYLBP8NM
And that is but the latest.305Please respect copyright.PENANARUoE8209wj
So, it seems that the undisputed leader of the five, the thumb in that kingly hand, is305Please respect copyright.PENANAjrjfPSpP8n
a man willing to go the extra distance to do what is right.305Please respect copyright.PENANAmHsyXU8TSO
The instructions he gives might often not be his own but of his king’s, but he seems305Please respect copyright.PENANAjoqKKwrpy6
to always manage to deliver them with a certain power that makes him an easy man305Please respect copyright.PENANAGpxNNdCcM6
to follow.305Please respect copyright.PENANAI7MEipRdAx
Dhanel Marce is a man that irradiates confidence and assurance as only the leader305Please respect copyright.PENANAhO2vxSO6YN
of the Hervies’s Hand can and so, having told all of this, it must be noted that this305Please respect copyright.PENANAWhmFS4VyHV
champion has never failed his majesty... not once... not ever...
