NAME: Charlie W.

SPECIES: Human (Homo sapiens)

JOB/TITLE: Sprocketville, Southwest Kyngdom

APPEARANCE: Tall for his age (13), average build, curly dark brown hair always needs a haircut (except right after he gets one)

PERSONALITY: Never the first to speak up, but always the first to notice something

HOME: His parents' house, which his mom likes to say has the most natural light of any underground bunker in Sprocketville, thanks to its many skylights

MOST OFTEN SEEN AT: The machinist wing of the Cypher Labs dormitory, where he lives on a hall with the other gear-nerds. Needless to say it's not the cleanest wing in the building.

FRIEND OR MENTOR: Dr. Sheepshank was the first adult he felt really took him seriously.

ENEMY OR RIVAL: Marcus R., the best machinist at Cypher--and a full year younger than Charlie.

FAVORITE POSSESSION OR OBJECT: His titanium sprocket wrench set, a 13th birthday gift from Dr. Sheepshank.

MOTTO OR FAVORITE SAYING: Er, did you try hitting it with a hammer?

STRENGTHS: Inventiveness--at age 8, he built a working dishwasher from scratch.

WEAKNESSES: Confidence--he has trouble standing up for himself sometimes.

BACKGROUND: Charlie grew up in Sprocketville, a small bunker town in Southwest Kyngdom. He was lonely there, since there weren't many other kids around--but that gave him plenty of time to tinker with the smashed-up machines that lined all the roads in town. After he built an entirely new set of household appliances from scratch, word spread across Kyngdom. Eventually, Dr. Sheepshank recruited him to be part of the Cypher Labs team. His parents were sad to see him go, but he didn't think twice: this was his big break.

Name: Erika Morgenstern 

Species: Human

Job: Assassin, Mercenary

Appearance: Tall and lithe, with the deadly grace of a predator's shadow. She has no expression, her eyes like shards of blue ice. Her hair is the pale gold of winter sunlight on snow, braided back in a complex Norse style with metal bands, pinned into a swirl at the back of the head. She carries a large circular leather and iron shield, and hides a steel battle-axe beneath her worn cloak. Most of her clothing is old and worn, frayed around the edges, made from leathers and lined with fur.

Personality: Cold and uncaring. She is a mercenary and has no emotional ties. She lives a life of battles and blood, and easily flies into a berserker rage. 

Home: None.

Most often seen at: Wherever a war is brewing, or perhaps silently slipping through the shadows.

Friend/Mentor: None.

Enemy: The enemy of her employer

Favorite Possession: Her shield and Battleaxe

Motto: "Cold Iron burns more than any mortal's wrath."

Strengths: Ruthless, and detached. She feels no emotions and is unbending in the face of death. Thrives in combat, fearless. 

Weaknesses: Erika believes all people are the same, that they are all corrupt and craven, deserving to die. She takes Humanity as not a group of individuals, but a single conglomeration, and dismisses them as such. She likes fighting, and has closed herself off for so long that she has lost nearly all human empathy.

Background:  Born in the harsh cold of North Kyngdom alone and abandoned, Erika wandered through army camps, picking up bits and pieces of martial arts. When she further showed interest in learning the arts of fighting, she was turned down by numerous warriors. However, all the warriors already had squires. In order to get what she wanted, she slit the bottoms of a squire's feet so he couldn't move and reported to his knight, waiting three days before asking him to take her in as an apprentice. As he assumed his charge to be gone for good, the warrior said yes. Since then, her heart has hardened to be as frigid and dead as the landscape of her birth land.

NAME: Theodora Pendragon

SPECIES: Necromancer

JOB/TITLE: Street musician, entertainer of wealthy merchants and Nobles, Dealer of illegal information.

APPEARANCE: Theodora has curling bangs that brush her eyebrows, and coppery stringy hair, untidy and so long that it brushes the ground. She weaves ivory-colored ribbons and silver bells in it. Her sparkling, long-lashed eyes glint from beneath long, arching eyebrows that are several shades darker than her hair, and she has a tall Roman nose. Her face is very expressive, the features are rather foxy, her mouth perpetually curved in a mischievous grin of amusement with a sharp chin beneath it. She is pale and lanky, her form marred by dark, ridged scars, curling around her arms, long neck, and torso. She wears layers of colorful skirts and dresses, an over-large trench coat, combat boots, and an embroidered scarf so long that the ends of its tassels trail on the ground. She wears her pageboy cap low over her face.

PERSONALITY: The first to crack a joke, no matter how dire the situation. She laughs at Fate, and seems to float free of time, often forgetting the date and time. She doesn't care much about anything, and is inquisitive about everything. Has a sharp, sometimes cruel sense of wit.

HOME: anywhere

MOST OFTEN SEEN AT: All over Kyngdom

FRIEND: Feryl DuEll, if that's fine with her.

ENEMY/RIVALS: Anybody who is after her, or aims to run her down. Theodora doesn't hold much of a grudge to anybody, so any maliciousness is one-sided.

FAVOURITE POSSESSION: Her magical lute, painstakingly painted with vines and mythical animals.

MOTTO: "Luck is worth nearly as much as the spare change I left at your mother's bedside."

STRENGTHS: Humor, and being able to detach herself from emotions and petty rivalries. She lives carefree and is very adept to change.

WEAKNESSES: Though her sharp wit keeps people on their toes, it can also make her many enemies. Her sense of time can help her be carefree, as well as put her in dangerous, messy situations. Her curiosity helps her collect both information and wrath.

BACKGROUND: The daughter of the irresponsible, arrogant Necromancer, Pendragon. He worked at a foreign king's court as his advisor. When there was an invasion, he was killed along with the king. Theodora escaped by blackmailing a captain of a ship with information, and sailed all the way to the vast, famous Kyngdom. There she changed her name to Theodora, and hid her necromancy beneath the guise of a musician, though she was actually using her magical training to make people feel her music was special. Since then, she has wandered, gradually learning of the feud between animals and humans.

Ms. Theodora,

I am interested in making you a general in my army.

Please reply in haste,

Poe Allen

Salutations Good Sir. Please, simply call me by my first name, no formalities needed.

Army? A trickster such as I would make a terrible General, though it would certainly be an  interesting ordeal...Just imagine, me laughing maniacally as the enemy closes in...However, I would be happy to exchange information, after, of course, we discuss the price. After all, if the world is but a Boxing Ring where fools put up their fists, would it not be better to simply keep your hands in your pockets? Or, as most often said, the neutral ones are the survivors.

(Out of charrie)

@Theodora and Erika, your descriptive language is great! Sorry if I sound like your language arts teacher. :p

(Kind of in charrie)

It's nice that you can wear your hair like that. Training school policy for me was hair one inch and 3.25 quarters below the soldier, put into two tight braids. That way, we look innocent to trick the people that we are after. Also, it doesn't get that much in the way when we fight others.

I've always wondered what it's like to wear your hair any way you want. Must be nice.

Thank you! If only my teacher complimented me so.

*In Charrie*

Indeed, it is nice. A person may not have riches or reputation, but they can always have hair. Hair is universal, and should be allowed to grow long and wild, just like the human spirit. 

Unless, of course, you have a sickness in which you can't have hair, either...

Yeah Luna. 'Cause your super nice.

Why is it always you who stabs me? Well, you or your little boyfriend.

Silence, Shadow. It is Alexandria, and you know it. I never said I was nice, I didn't stab you, and he is not my boyfriend.

No wonder you turned down the position of assistant general.

In that position, you actually have to get your facts straight.

Big suprise.

Maybe she would have had someone to do it for her. A tricky business, trust, but often worthwile. It would be interesting if these things actually became truth... XD Way more than interesting. It would be awesome.
Except for the stabbing part.
