Height: 177301Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡE1iyDm9byz
Hair colour: Black301Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡthgeNHNuH9
Eye colour: Yellow301Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ9aSYFqj2w
Weight: 33 - 2
Adopted from an early age by the modest Elgo family, it is rumoured even to301Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ93CbmurJeL
this day, that she was originally of noble origin. Like most, the path that led her to301Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6nZM0Q2JNd
eventually serve in the Hand is shrouded in rumours and speculations, but she is the301Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwwl0B8KeFQ
first Human woman to do so - and that alone is quite the feat.301Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWgsYblM2cG
With her raven hair and yellow eyes bordering on orange, she has proven her worth301Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtKOdRiv6UI
time and again and while being extremely capable of felling most opponents in combat301Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcCDDP7RoQV
with her agility and her speed - her main weapon of choice being the whip - her main301Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0yuUaeUk2Y
importance lies elsewhere.301Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTPVAQLUsNk
Her most notorious skill lies in linguistics for, after showing a clear aptitude, she301Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ72UGO5KLva
has been trained from the very start to speak any idiom; this includes even the ability301Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGqcX8UHejI
to translate the ancient Centra texts just as easily, if not more so, than most reputed301Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyabEvIUxad
scholars.301Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUOTTqcNRvD
This ability alone makes her an invaluable member of the team but there is much301Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjL7fktPE3z
more to her. Deena can also be seen, frequently, as the calmest and most collected of301Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCeH8BZwkj5
the four serving under Dhanel Marce.

Harigar Rhim
Height: 184301Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡecdncWi6IH
Hair colour: White301Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0306H9xt93
Eye colour: Pale Blue301Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9MnRZbmlPZ
Weight: 46 - 4
Completely dressed in black and with tattoos of the same colour all over his face301Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡucYQ8X3P2u
that so strongly contrast with his white hair. This extraordinary swordsman entered301Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVwW3CB8R1U
these elite ranks years ago and he did not do so at a young age.301Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXP1fZPGQJj
He was already a fully-grown man when he came to the castle to volunteer himself.301Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcAOEZbCmX3
He originates from the tribal village of Naruun, deep within the vast deserts to301Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaxNtf2HU0l
the south where tattoos, and other more ritualistic expressions, are a tradition.301Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ4iE9eKmPH
The ones on his face are proud symbols of a successful rite of passage and while usually301Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUuPlC0ejrT
such brands are forbidden within the Human military branch, his skill was such that301Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU4vNOU0Joe
Hervies simply could not pass on it.301Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡr6q2L6fMHB
As for weaponry, he favours but the one: a thin-bladed sword holding the powers of301Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtRCaXYeEmx
lightning and one which he is most skilled with! His somewhat elongated fingernails301Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3ONy2lBJI4
on the hand that wields it are a testament to his abilities, but his skills as a swordsman301Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡG0SsqBp1D3
are not his only strength.301Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡD0prRnPEzO
Harigar Rhim also has the ability to understand and pick apart any known piece of301Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbqrMpVvr1m
technology. He has even been successful when paired against Nharkim tech making301Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkZGL0iN2EJ
him not only one of the best soldiers but also one of the best engineers any team could301Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRwmI8sTduI
ever hope to have around.301Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw4nFADwLxN
Any life he might have previously owned is now shrouded in mystery - could he301Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcNJ96A4PGM
have been someone important prior to joining?301Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3FFPnizT0T
A prince or a thief perhaps? Did he come seeking, or running?301Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ169r9EIqFW
A story for him alone to carry.

Celle Erbe
Height: 182301Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTiYbmyQfBP
Hair colour: Red and Blue301Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3QalGUh726
Eye colour: Pale Blue301Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5gLGwr7YLj
Weight: 37 - 2
Most of the things concerning Celle have always been kept a secret to all, even to301Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpF81AEeqiy
those she serves with.301Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu8w8onyxxx
And what very little is known about her background is thanks to Dhanel Marce301Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAeDOyRkQrc
and his persistence in always wanting to know about those who are to work with him.301Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVkuJYzK3tu
It is even rumoured that Dhanel Marce first refuted the Human king’s direct order of301Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJMv4RWQ4kZ
having Celle join him and his men, regardless of her power and promise.301Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡag0gpt1QMe
Truth or nay, only two can say, but the fact remains that to this day so much mystery301Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdQnV6814wx
still surrounds her.301Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwkhRMRnU7Z
The supposed last descendant of a bygone race. The Elvorides, once the guardians of301Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwV56Led6nC
many treasures of the ancient world, the preservers of older things now left forgotten,301Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNNq4t03zNk
keepers of memory; but they were also the most gifted amongst all species when it301Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiEtLZM8IoY
came to the handlings of natural powers... or magic as the common folk once deemed301Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJzADPfpIMs
to name it...301Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX6Zu4c28Nt
The Elvorides were at the very top, once, before all that technology and stolen301Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7eWgVkqhEC
knowledge came gallivanting into the hands of the lesser races effectively dethroning301Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxhf0n0HnjT
them until they were heard from no more.301Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmBzhTQSoSe
As the last of her kind, Celle possesses unique strengths making her most formidable301Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdulHYrTxKr
on almost all fronts. In combat, she carries with her a strangely designed staff, a weapon301Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡa7zZCVsuBD
created by the best, working under Human rule and built following ancient schematics.301Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGs6R0C58Wk
A weapon to supposedly help her control and channel her inherited powers; a gift that301Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡer0qXjR4Dc
unlike any other here is meant more for focus rather than augmentation.301Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLDm47csQNa
Thus, unlike the rest, she is not mainly dependent on her weapon to charge into301Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ125QgnoycX
battle; she does not need it nor any other enhancements to call forth some of the more301Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJKPXyZZTvP
unnatural ways at her disposal. She can be just as deadly while battling completely301Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKPvzTMdVHG
naked for her power is herself and as such, she usually deems others as inferior.301Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJs6iiTy6iu
It would seem then to most, after mere moments of witnessing her, that there is301Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4fa592EvDK
nothing that Celle cannot do.

Lorian Krass
Height: 182301Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvFm2LElK98
Hair colour: Pitch Black301Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2oSP448jXz
Eye colour: Green301Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ09UuxaE0vX
Weight: 45 - 4
Found a few years back as the sole survivor of a burning village to the West by301Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkIw19lxsng
veteran soldiers stationed in a nearby garrison. As reports go, the men spotted the301Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwTGRiFAzYZ
sudden, tall fires from afar and came as fast as they could, but by the time they got301Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhZXrTbBaFn
there they found nothing but charred stones and burnt pieces of wood.301Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF77lMfrX3D
Corpses of animals and farmers too, plenty of them, laid strewn across the streets301Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbG2x00dcFt
and rundown houses.301Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8OrHGYtdUA
Still, following the mandates of duty they scouted and searched without hope with301Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxR6oJvy2II
the ever-gnawing doubts always on their minds... questions like...301Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡG1uCKqrARU
What were they supposed to do? How were they to report this?301Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3NgDiiB0ED
Thoughts swirling inside their heads, but then all of that came to a stop when one301Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHxkpJEpM4m
of the men ahead began to repeatedly shout something – a survivor?301Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqZ27PY7tA0
Impossible, and yet it was true.301Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQEae38WYCP
They all ran to meet him; a confused and naked young man sweating profusely,301Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpE6XUfUfbL
without any clothes or memory, his body so cold to the touch. Thus, the quiet survivor301Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡih71M0eKkb
was brought back to their garrison. They tried to question him while waiting for301Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVKQldDVQS3
instructions from the castle, but one can only go so far with a man without voice or301Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmmeglaSpwL
memory. By direct word of his majesty, he was to stay a few more years in that garrison,301Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNsE9JmEzye
under the tutelage of captain Krass who was to instruct him in all sorts of ways until301Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡClcVxMlxjT
the time would come for him to be brought to the castle. As for the reasoning of such301Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡc9eq91pfaC
a mysterious fire, no concrete answer was ever found – those that were witness to it301Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf7jv8GF5w3
reported it as they saw it. In time most learned to toss it up as the doings of a phenom*301Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoyK7RweJ3K
or something else of an uncanny nature.301Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAv17dQQ9K4
Due to his time under Krass’s tutelage - the man who would also name him -301Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtSPdAFpvT0
Lorian, developed many skills before he was summoned to the castle: he is a master301Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXhwJ5uYAmF
tracker the likes the Hand never had, he is also an expert on biology and botany, as301Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4R0Egznx5M
well as most capable of crafting, and healing, most known poisons.301Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWIe4vtjsbW
In combat, he favours the usage of light armour sacrificing protection for a higher301Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh568soHGj9
speed of movement much like Harigar Rhim, but unlike Harigar, Lorian is not a301Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhYEtibPbGT
straight-out swordsman. Instead, he relies on a curved blade named ´kagra´, a weapon301Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡA5Lsj0Mi6e
that was usually paired with a buckler but now one very seldom seen as they stopped301Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlrjlfOUenB
being produced since the last war.301Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡW7FNpHkB0Z
When not hiding his face with a hood, Lorian displays short black hair with a few301Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9kGFEqr1FQ
brown stripes in front that are longer than the rest, a somewhat stern face despite his301Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnSTs4Y9umu
relative youth and a pair of determined green eyes.301Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkwwUrLrJZs
He never speaks; his voice was never once heard since he was found, never a word301Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzvmbe9v9PX
and whether this is by trauma or by choice, is to this day still undetermined.

Height: 188301Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMHUozg3xzR
Hair colour: Golden301Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb8PY2Wfrdj
Eye colour: Blue301Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBSPR2A7bTL
Weight: 48 - 4
Finally, in charge of them as it always has been, a hero-like figure through and301Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHMPORon3WX
through.301Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡL9MgDq9Y03
Blonde flowing hair and pale blue eyes escorting his fair skin that often can be seen301Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ289lS0u1G5
stained with flowered scars.301Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0PGXZVSys4
Many are the tales surrounding Dhanel Marce and while arguably they are301Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDJl059VXEx
supported by some popular folklore, all of them share the same principle of being301Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVcHCHKoUXC
portents of great bravura. Stories growing so popular that they become almost like301Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvBTNR2EoyE
those epic tales one can find in the narrations of those with wilder imaginations,301Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2NRDWoMcSi
as they get passed across mouth and land.301Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrp3dcEligN
Tales such as his latest venture where he singlehandedly went deep down into a cave301Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyV70Xrh1vz
of Zabduans - Human tribes that evolution seems to have missed and are renowned301Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDH5ogKJTDc
for their fierce, and some even say, cannibalistic ways - to save a dame left there for301Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGpXKYzV6wU
some sort of sacrificial rite. A cave deep in the Pedenke jungles a place far from any301Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡljlhgUqE0T
soldier’s orders.301Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDmwXc8tym9
And that is but the latest.301Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDlluShKNk8
So, it seems that the undisputed leader of the five, the thumb in that kingly hand, is301Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsSK1sVJCy2
a man willing to go the extra distance to do what is right.301Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡL7caplagOM
The instructions he gives might often not be his own but of his king’s, but he seems301Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAg1JAVATFe
to always manage to deliver them with a certain power that makes him an easy man301Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOj03HmpMJP
to follow.301Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLuIC8gHPZX
Dhanel Marce is a man that irradiates confidence and assurance as only the leader301Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNnuEje41zB
of the Hervies’s Hand can and so, having told all of this, it must be noted that this301Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNViHaPlEaX
champion has never failed his majesty... not once... not ever...
