'''Alexander Holysword'''<Br>
 
'''Apparent Age''' Early Teens<br>
 
'''Attributes'''<br>
 
Appearance 5(7), Charisma 4(5), Manipulation 2(3)<br>
 
''Effects of his blade, which gives a +1 to all, and the Hearthstone, which, among other benefits, adds +1 to appearance''<br>
 
'''Merits'''<br>
 
''Born to Rule''<br>
 
Scion of the throne, Alexander carries himself as a lord, in every word and gesture...<Br>
 
'''Flaws'''<br>
 
''Child, Unusual Appearance''<br>
 
Alexander is young, regarded by much as a child, what severely impairs him on his interactions with adults. Also, his purple eyes and crystalline silver hair mark him as unusual wherever he goes...<br>
 
'''Backgrounds'''<br>
 
''Influence 1''<Br>
 
Alexander is crown  prince of an important kingdom of the north, and as such, his name is known, as is his position, and his station does carry with it respect... not enough to command anything, but enough to be heard.<br>
 
'''Abilities'''<br>
 
Presence 3, Socialize 3
 
 
'''Cael Pattona'''<Br>
 
'''Apparent Age''' Mid Twenties<Br>
 
'''Attributes'''<Br>

'''Flaws'''<Br>
 
''Known Anathema, Wanted''<Br>
 
Cael Exalted while stealing his ship, the Quicksilver Zephyr, from the Hanslanti League. He Exatled in front of everyone, and his exploit, and those after it, came to be known far and wide to the whole north – a daring anathema, possessing a powerful first age ship – you hardly get more gossip than that. Unfortunately, even though fame preceeds the Windwraith throughout the whole north, so does the bounty the Hanslanti placed on the sky-pirate’s head....<Br>
 
'''Abilities'''<Br>
 
Presence 5, Socialize 5<Br>
 
 
'''Child of Wyld Days'''<Br>
 
'''Apparent Age''': Hard to tell for raksha; looks to be early to late twenties<Br>
 
'''Attributes'''<Br>
 
Appearance 5, Charisma 6, Manipulation 5<Br>
 
Let's face facts. While the Child is surprisingly beautiful (in a rough-around-the-edges sort of way, as she's a tough girl), she is quite obviously a Fair One, and makes no attempts to hide this. Her Air-shape is considerably less blatant than her natural form, but retains the impossible brass highlights and reflective brass eyes. Amusingly enough, one can tell that she's looking at them even though she doesn't technically have pupils. Otherwise, she's tall (six feet six inches), a bit on the athletic side (she hides her immense strength when shaping her body) and rather buxom (it's a good way to catch people's attention!).<Br>
 
'''Abilities'''<Br>
 
Socialize 1, Presence 3, Performance 4
 
 
'''Elizabeth Holysword'''<br>
 
'''Apparant Age''' Mid-Teens<br>
 
'''Attributes'''<br>
 
Appearance 4, Charisma 4, Manipulation 5<br>
 
'''Merits'''<br>
 
''Legendary Stamina, Windian''<br>
 
'''Flaws'''<br>
 
''Unusual Appearance''<br>
 
Elizabeth Holysword, eldest of the Holysword children, princess of Whiteshield, is not exactly unknwon-- nor, with her liquid silver hair, shocking crystaline eyes of amethyst, and silvered-ivory skin, is she easily overlooked.  Her clothing varies, but she does not hide herself with her wardrobe.  If she doesn't wish to be recognized or noticed, she won't be Elizabeth Holysword.<br>
 
'''Abilities'''<br>
 
Socialize 2, Presence 3<br>
 
 
'''Fiona'''<Br>
 
'''Age''' Early Teens<Br>
 
'''Attributes'''<Br>
 
Appearance 4, Charisma 4, Manipulation 2<Br>
 
'''Flaws'''<Br>
 
''Child''<Br>
 
Even though she is cute as a buttom, Fiona is too young to be taken seriously by most adults... before they see her working sorceries beyond the ken of the Dragon-Blooded, that is.<Br>
 
 
'''Izabella de Windia aka Iselsis'''<Br>
 
'''Apparent Age''' Late teens<br>
 
'''Attributes'''<br>
 
Appearance 3, Charisma 2, Manipulation 2<br>
 
'''Flaws'''<br>
 
''Disturbing''<br>
 
Izabella was turned into a demonblooded earlier in her childhood due to what is assumed to be a freak accident. She is red skinned but with blue eyes, has horns, pointed devil ears, batwings (though she has an artifact to banish them), fangs and claws. However in her full field garb - hat drawn low, scarf over her lower face and black greatcoat - not much can be discerned of any of this and she can operate normally, although she may be mistaken for a male.<br>
 
'''Backgrounds'''<br>
 
''Backing 2, Inheritance 3, Breeding 5''<Br>
 
Izabella, due to her curious nature, was trained to be a lone field operative for the Windian black ops. Though she doesn't know most of the other field agents and only regularly sees one superior, she is backed by the organization. She is quite obviously of prominent demonic descent, and the informed will be able to discern her impeccable dragonblooded breeding as well, especially if her anime were to flare.<br>
 
'''Abilities'''<br>
 
Presence 3, Socialize 2, Investigate 1<br>
 
 
'''Kanti'''<Br>
 
'''Apparent Age''' Early twenties<Br>
 
'''Attributes'''<Br>
 
Appearance 3, Charisma 4, Manipulation 2<Br>
 
''Kanti is actually an Appearance 4 beauty... but that was before she was covered in void-black scars. For all the living, she can be very cute... if one manages to see past her scars. For the dead, they see her beauty perfected. But wherever she goes, the first thing people will see is her scars, covering every inch of her body... which is, in turn, covered by a robe made of her own screams. For those who have a reason to like necromantic beauty, her appearance is 5, but for those who have a reason to really dislike them, it counts as appearance 2.<Br>

Socialize 4, Presence 3
 
 
'''Ryshassa Krauser'''<Br>

'''Merits'''<br>
 
''True Love''<br>
 
'''Flaws'''<br>
 
''Pacifist(5-pt)''<br>
 
Ryshassa is a humble healer of exceptional ability practicing from Gethamane, married to the local funeral priest, Alexsei Krauser (not that most people really remember his name, much less his face...) She is rarely seen away from his side, and they are quite visibly close and in love to anyone who may observe them for a good period of time. A pacifist by philosophy, she will only in very, very rare cases cause harm to another living being, even in self defense. In appearance, she is a petite, delicate Oriental beauty, not spectacularly so but easy on the eyes nonetheless, with a warm, gentle demeanor that puts most at ease. She is in her natural element when healing, soothing, or inspiring the hurt and downtrodden.<br>

''Born to Rule, Enchanting Feature(Ravishing)''<Br>
 
Raised to be the Duchess of Windia, Selina carries herself with regality and grace, and makes her lessers simply feel they <i>have</i> to do as she says, and that she is doing so much just by speaking to them. Her body is also a thing of beautiful curves, inviting lust with each inch of it...<Br>
 
'''Flaws'''<Br>
 
''Known Anathema, Unusual Appearance, Wanted''<Br>
 
Being one of the rare winged ones of the north is already enough to set you as unusual in a crowd – being a black-winged one is something to make even the Windians themselves nervous. Very nervous. The Dark Angel is also a well-known figure – On the North, she killed her family, and brought exile to herself. On the East, she acts as an agent of the Immaculate Order and the Bronze Faction, killing anathema for them. And even on Heaven, she is known as the former protege of the Goddess of Assassins, Sheeana. And for her crimes, she is wanted... in many places, for many things.<Br>

'''Flaws'''<Br>
 
''Known Anathema, Emotional Anima, Permanent Caste Mark''<BR>
 
Within Whiteshield and certain parts of Windia, Seventh Moon is outright infamous. To those whom it matters, the Lunar punk of the Boil is a growing power to be handled carefully. Even those who do not know of him directly will have little trouble guessing what he is, thanks largely in part to the imperfect moonsilver tattoo given to him by Father of Crows. Etched into his flesh to fix his Caste, the rough silver circle displays itself upon his brow with or without Essence expenditure to light it. Perhaps he could hide it easily, were it not for his rather unique ability to ignite his Anima whenever driven to an emotional state. Enraged or excited, his Caste mark shines through any covering and the air around Seventh Moon begins to gleam with the pale light of the moon and stir with the ambient energy around him.<BR>

''Born to Rule''<Br>
 
Vorpal carries herself as a commander, and one of noble birth. An authority to always be heed.<Br>
 
'''Flaws'''<Br>
 
''Unusual Appearance, Sun-Seared''<Br>
 
A true albino, Vorpal’s skin is pale as snow, her eyes red, her hair just as white.<Br>
 
'''Backgrounds'''<Br>
 
''Reputation 2''<Br>
 
The Pale Angel Brigade was a great weapon of conquest for her kingdom, undefeated for years before the treason that destroyed it. And the reason for its power and victory is Vorpal, a name well-known on most of the Northeast and North, the Pale Angel, maybe the best general to be born in the region in centuries...<Br>

'''Exceedingly Sublime Opal'''<Br>
 
'''Appearent Age''' Late Twenties<Br>
 
'''Attributes''' Appearance 7, Charisma 5, Manipulation 4<Br><br>
 
Is there beauty in stone? In jade? In the living earth itself?<br>
 
 
Of an alien sort perhaps, but when that beauty makes itself manifest into mortal-shape, it becomes a force to inspire awe and heartbreak. White jade in flesh, in hair, in lips and eyes; she is like a living statue of polished stone. A perfected form of feminine beauty, with curves developing languorously across her long frame into idyllic proportions. Yet unhidden by the softness of her contours, her body is hard as the precious stone she is made from and a will every bit as unbreakable displayed in the confident movement of each splendidly defined muscle. The woman known as Exceedingly Sublime Opal seems an albino in color at first glance, till one studies beyond the simple lack of color and uncovers the pale nuisances of shade that compose her form; making truly purely white that which would seem to simply lack color at all.<br>
 
 
Winding into elegant curls, her hair spills across her shoulders in milky tresses and tickles the strong line of her back and the polished white marble of her eyes stare with an endless depth and ages of understanding that stretch back further than mortal kind could comprehend. Chiseled by the hands of an overwhelming artisan to an ideal of beauty nothing born from mortal flesh could ever match, her face is Mediterranean perfection, full lipped and strong featured. <br><br>

Never mind the scars, and pay no attention to the man behind the curtain - Sky is a soldier, nothing more. At least, that's what he'll tell you, both out loud and in appearance. Though his greying, dark hair is long, he eschews elaborate styles in favor of simply tying it back; though his face was probably once quite handsome, age has crept up on him. His attire is almost exclusively either tailored military dress uniforms or minimalistic flowing robes, and in battle he hides himself behind a featureless helmet and layers of linen, burlap, and mail. Soldiers do not have identities!
