Height: 177425Please respect copyright.PENANAU4oKBgVcig
Hair colour: Black425Please respect copyright.PENANAKqMSw4dZhT
Eye colour: Yellow425Please respect copyright.PENANAgT1kPEcQmH
Weight: 33 - 2
Adopted from an early age by the modest Elgo family, it is rumoured even to425Please respect copyright.PENANAMdp3b85DKh
this day, that she was originally of noble origin. Like most, the path that led her to425Please respect copyright.PENANAt5kz8reHMY
eventually serve in the Hand is shrouded in rumours and speculations, but she is the425Please respect copyright.PENANAmKVKz3KxjE
first Human woman to do so - and that alone is quite the feat.425Please respect copyright.PENANAbAH0UX6AEP
With her raven hair and yellow eyes bordering on orange, she has proven her worth425Please respect copyright.PENANAfP6OsI7q8J
time and again and while being extremely capable of felling most opponents in combat425Please respect copyright.PENANAWaHCKsCZh7
with her agility and her speed - her main weapon of choice being the whip - her main425Please respect copyright.PENANAuGykbVQaHx
importance lies elsewhere.425Please respect copyright.PENANAxgZtMcPKzc
Her most notorious skill lies in linguistics for, after showing a clear aptitude, she425Please respect copyright.PENANAZGIw07cNCx
has been trained from the very start to speak any idiom; this includes even the ability425Please respect copyright.PENANABkZ7zqriZT
to translate the ancient Centra texts just as easily, if not more so, than most reputed425Please respect copyright.PENANAjyXN1nImeh
scholars.425Please respect copyright.PENANA1vPuu7R1KN
This ability alone makes her an invaluable member of the team but there is much425Please respect copyright.PENANAQriI6rWCkn
more to her. Deena can also be seen, frequently, as the calmest and most collected of425Please respect copyright.PENANAoMWvjS2XLu
the four serving under Dhanel Marce.

Harigar Rhim
Height: 184425Please respect copyright.PENANAHLL7AkSAxZ
Hair colour: White425Please respect copyright.PENANAUlK50GZAfg
Eye colour: Pale Blue425Please respect copyright.PENANACHaYV1md7T
Weight: 46 - 4
Completely dressed in black and with tattoos of the same colour all over his face425Please respect copyright.PENANAtOB9XnXMK4
that so strongly contrast with his white hair. This extraordinary swordsman entered425Please respect copyright.PENANA74ciFdhupX
these elite ranks years ago and he did not do so at a young age.425Please respect copyright.PENANA7pDNcVYuWy
He was already a fully-grown man when he came to the castle to volunteer himself.425Please respect copyright.PENANAmB0x9Fl3gm
He originates from the tribal village of Naruun, deep within the vast deserts to425Please respect copyright.PENANAi4XAeM2XIs
the south where tattoos, and other more ritualistic expressions, are a tradition.425Please respect copyright.PENANASMuorJSDTI
The ones on his face are proud symbols of a successful rite of passage and while usually425Please respect copyright.PENANAow2hVlZuxF
such brands are forbidden within the Human military branch, his skill was such that425Please respect copyright.PENANAVzcE1H9nof
Hervies simply could not pass on it.425Please respect copyright.PENANA1zKPYsTuOb
As for weaponry, he favours but the one: a thin-bladed sword holding the powers of425Please respect copyright.PENANAsiyy9LbdUs
lightning and one which he is most skilled with! His somewhat elongated fingernails425Please respect copyright.PENANAbTrI6208jj
on the hand that wields it are a testament to his abilities, but his skills as a swordsman425Please respect copyright.PENANAPSEORClOuV
are not his only strength.425Please respect copyright.PENANAZqhMZhijGU
Harigar Rhim also has the ability to understand and pick apart any known piece of425Please respect copyright.PENANATxhytk00cq
technology. He has even been successful when paired against Nharkim tech making425Please respect copyright.PENANASYJ8JzufXJ
him not only one of the best soldiers but also one of the best engineers any team could425Please respect copyright.PENANAxhv54LHLUf
ever hope to have around.425Please respect copyright.PENANAXgOb3LZYgH
Any life he might have previously owned is now shrouded in mystery - could he425Please respect copyright.PENANAUYf0flfdvP
have been someone important prior to joining?425Please respect copyright.PENANAudxl6lBxwH
A prince or a thief perhaps? Did he come seeking, or running?425Please respect copyright.PENANAb7BR9CtUvj
A story for him alone to carry.

Celle Erbe
Height: 182425Please respect copyright.PENANAO5VvlGsk9n
Hair colour: Red and Blue425Please respect copyright.PENANAGAt2uH3Xgj
Eye colour: Pale Blue425Please respect copyright.PENANAFcJFsxHAb2
Weight: 37 - 2
Most of the things concerning Celle have always been kept a secret to all, even to425Please respect copyright.PENANAmRSmwg8IcI
those she serves with.425Please respect copyright.PENANApDoR0OlvLR
And what very little is known about her background is thanks to Dhanel Marce425Please respect copyright.PENANAWcjKtGpXrP
and his persistence in always wanting to know about those who are to work with him.425Please respect copyright.PENANAcfnE7RfdaB
It is even rumoured that Dhanel Marce first refuted the Human king’s direct order of425Please respect copyright.PENANAW2p60NZM4Y
having Celle join him and his men, regardless of her power and promise.425Please respect copyright.PENANA0dYAmYWWNX
Truth or nay, only two can say, but the fact remains that to this day so much mystery425Please respect copyright.PENANA8xXAHboPSf
still surrounds her.425Please respect copyright.PENANA8WXqVniYTU
The supposed last descendant of a bygone race. The Elvorides, once the guardians of425Please respect copyright.PENANA8F9YgDyNn1
many treasures of the ancient world, the preservers of older things now left forgotten,425Please respect copyright.PENANAGp325kurGP
keepers of memory; but they were also the most gifted amongst all species when it425Please respect copyright.PENANAEPj3P27AW1
came to the handlings of natural powers... or magic as the common folk once deemed425Please respect copyright.PENANAQECDjqJoPJ
to name it...425Please respect copyright.PENANAT6KscPlr8B
The Elvorides were at the very top, once, before all that technology and stolen425Please respect copyright.PENANAErLjEXPeOu
knowledge came gallivanting into the hands of the lesser races effectively dethroning425Please respect copyright.PENANAXvy0w5W8iF
them until they were heard from no more.425Please respect copyright.PENANAJZucSIujH3
As the last of her kind, Celle possesses unique strengths making her most formidable425Please respect copyright.PENANA2TgsmEpPmn
on almost all fronts. In combat, she carries with her a strangely designed staff, a weapon425Please respect copyright.PENANAVcnNIEtC1n
created by the best, working under Human rule and built following ancient schematics.425Please respect copyright.PENANANqE5fveejn
A weapon to supposedly help her control and channel her inherited powers; a gift that425Please respect copyright.PENANAtLH3XlnliK
unlike any other here is meant more for focus rather than augmentation.425Please respect copyright.PENANA9qKDalFqBL
Thus, unlike the rest, she is not mainly dependent on her weapon to charge into425Please respect copyright.PENANAIoIldxTeE8
battle; she does not need it nor any other enhancements to call forth some of the more425Please respect copyright.PENANAfrTucxQaSW
unnatural ways at her disposal. She can be just as deadly while battling completely425Please respect copyright.PENANAsWW8BHwrmR
naked for her power is herself and as such, she usually deems others as inferior.425Please respect copyright.PENANAsH8qprEcIr
It would seem then to most, after mere moments of witnessing her, that there is425Please respect copyright.PENANArzZSnAM4Ku
nothing that Celle cannot do.

Lorian Krass
Height: 182425Please respect copyright.PENANAmSncUCY0dI
Hair colour: Pitch Black425Please respect copyright.PENANADK4dVQj3w4
Eye colour: Green425Please respect copyright.PENANA0rktLgnu5p
Weight: 45 - 4
Found a few years back as the sole survivor of a burning village to the West by425Please respect copyright.PENANA288qDkhwgG
veteran soldiers stationed in a nearby garrison. As reports go, the men spotted the425Please respect copyright.PENANAikjnibpL6h
sudden, tall fires from afar and came as fast as they could, but by the time they got425Please respect copyright.PENANACvD5Ic5mLb
there they found nothing but charred stones and burnt pieces of wood.425Please respect copyright.PENANAnotN5A9akh
Corpses of animals and farmers too, plenty of them, laid strewn across the streets425Please respect copyright.PENANA8KP5QOe0oh
and rundown houses.425Please respect copyright.PENANAspp9CxmUXN
Still, following the mandates of duty they scouted and searched without hope with425Please respect copyright.PENANAdjkoUFWiPS
the ever-gnawing doubts always on their minds... questions like...425Please respect copyright.PENANA2K3N1i1ddv
What were they supposed to do? How were they to report this?425Please respect copyright.PENANAaDgZOV1hcz
Thoughts swirling inside their heads, but then all of that came to a stop when one425Please respect copyright.PENANAY2hWgI61gM
of the men ahead began to repeatedly shout something – a survivor?425Please respect copyright.PENANA8LBKIIBl3d
Impossible, and yet it was true.425Please respect copyright.PENANA9ZkqFigNc5
They all ran to meet him; a confused and naked young man sweating profusely,425Please respect copyright.PENANA4NLG3bAJNJ
without any clothes or memory, his body so cold to the touch. Thus, the quiet survivor425Please respect copyright.PENANAGJvIeSSAt5
was brought back to their garrison. They tried to question him while waiting for425Please respect copyright.PENANAJKbbbrxZhN
instructions from the castle, but one can only go so far with a man without voice or425Please respect copyright.PENANANDRohOW1SA
memory. By direct word of his majesty, he was to stay a few more years in that garrison,425Please respect copyright.PENANAnZASNdE4HX
under the tutelage of captain Krass who was to instruct him in all sorts of ways until425Please respect copyright.PENANA7VKKf8gYQG
the time would come for him to be brought to the castle. As for the reasoning of such425Please respect copyright.PENANAroQEygYNzB
a mysterious fire, no concrete answer was ever found – those that were witness to it425Please respect copyright.PENANACODuhy5hx8
reported it as they saw it. In time most learned to toss it up as the doings of a phenom*425Please respect copyright.PENANALfq63XrooW
or something else of an uncanny nature.425Please respect copyright.PENANA3nOJFUe7Wo
Due to his time under Krass’s tutelage - the man who would also name him -425Please respect copyright.PENANARv3ZBG0yw7
Lorian, developed many skills before he was summoned to the castle: he is a master425Please respect copyright.PENANAMB5wf3EUEa
tracker the likes the Hand never had, he is also an expert on biology and botany, as425Please respect copyright.PENANA3iZtGF7eVM
well as most capable of crafting, and healing, most known poisons.425Please respect copyright.PENANAiA3EvPeqDf
In combat, he favours the usage of light armour sacrificing protection for a higher425Please respect copyright.PENANAklFKVsN27Q
speed of movement much like Harigar Rhim, but unlike Harigar, Lorian is not a425Please respect copyright.PENANAlUlaWJNG3N
straight-out swordsman. Instead, he relies on a curved blade named ´kagra´, a weapon425Please respect copyright.PENANAT9Wy8DwwJ0
that was usually paired with a buckler but now one very seldom seen as they stopped425Please respect copyright.PENANA2tvdmvafMc
being produced since the last war.425Please respect copyright.PENANAphBCNQTpNI
When not hiding his face with a hood, Lorian displays short black hair with a few425Please respect copyright.PENANAiYj9CUVaUu
brown stripes in front that are longer than the rest, a somewhat stern face despite his425Please respect copyright.PENANA3JQM046EZM
relative youth and a pair of determined green eyes.425Please respect copyright.PENANA6yftLaoCbq
He never speaks; his voice was never once heard since he was found, never a word425Please respect copyright.PENANACnJpgTooqN
and whether this is by trauma or by choice, is to this day still undetermined.

Dhanel Marce
Height: 188425Please respect copyright.PENANAzsb71i0N0J
Hair colour: Golden425Please respect copyright.PENANA6sDutIvBDW
Eye colour: Blue425Please respect copyright.PENANAOwJlQQn6VO
Weight: 48 - 4
Finally, in charge of them as it always has been, a hero-like figure through and425Please respect copyright.PENANAORmPknit8i
through.425Please respect copyright.PENANApFSkdN7H8j
Blonde flowing hair and pale blue eyes escorting his fair skin that often can be seen425Please respect copyright.PENANAr9VuUHecTt
stained with flowered scars.425Please respect copyright.PENANAWcvKVXngrS
Many are the tales surrounding Dhanel Marce and while arguably they are425Please respect copyright.PENANAiP3Jq8gUDT
supported by some popular folklore, all of them share the same principle of being425Please respect copyright.PENANAdjHvQZMnZR
portents of great bravura. Stories growing so popular that they become almost like425Please respect copyright.PENANAPcca0gkeDV
those epic tales one can find in the narrations of those with wilder imaginations,425Please respect copyright.PENANAlmea767oty
as they get passed across mouth and land.425Please respect copyright.PENANA9fhzK3FOim
Tales such as his latest venture where he singlehandedly went deep down into a cave425Please respect copyright.PENANAeZmvvmv5Dq
of Zabduans - Human tribes that evolution seems to have missed and are renowned425Please respect copyright.PENANAW3MLUwsJQW
for their fierce, and some even say, cannibalistic ways - to save a dame left there for425Please respect copyright.PENANAwROXJeYGjz
some sort of sacrificial rite. A cave deep in the Pedenke jungles a place far from any425Please respect copyright.PENANAH4gfxaoMx6
soldier’s orders.425Please respect copyright.PENANA6lntwNtZ7d
And that is but the latest.425Please respect copyright.PENANAiLQNVur0OF
So, it seems that the undisputed leader of the five, the thumb in that kingly hand, is425Please respect copyright.PENANA5BDtw81ATi
a man willing to go the extra distance to do what is right.425Please respect copyright.PENANA8saBnJ9HG2
The instructions he gives might often not be his own but of his king’s, but he seems425Please respect copyright.PENANAcuKAgKNBU9
to always manage to deliver them with a certain power that makes him an easy man425Please respect copyright.PENANA51QS6ZpYET
to follow.425Please respect copyright.PENANArLYdcG8ZrO
Dhanel Marce is a man that irradiates confidence and assurance as only the leader425Please respect copyright.PENANAW9YmOQdIeH
of the Hervies’s Hand can and so, having told all of this, it must be noted that this425Please respect copyright.PENANA1a8UUXkPos
champion has never failed his majesty... not once... not ever...
