Deena Elgo
Height: 177374Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaPeErSdlsO
Hair colour: Black374Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhbixDXFdY7
Eye colour: Yellow374Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7ed1mfWp39
Weight: 33 - 2
Adopted from an early age by the modest Elgo family, it is rumoured even to374Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQFhbhsbSZH
this day, that she was originally of noble origin. Like most, the path that led her to374Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGcFYKLgB9R
eventually serve in the Hand is shrouded in rumours and speculations, but she is the374Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkW6O6vnWpU
first Human woman to do so - and that alone is quite the feat.374Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbAaUEboMcJ
With her raven hair and yellow eyes bordering on orange, she has proven her worth374Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡi2tTq630lR
time and again and while being extremely capable of felling most opponents in combat374Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsfa1tSxvgJ
with her agility and her speed - her main weapon of choice being the whip - her main374Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd4wvW77NAK
importance lies elsewhere.374Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7rMgr4guYp
Her most notorious skill lies in linguistics for, after showing a clear aptitude, she374Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOy0YSMFk7x
has been trained from the very start to speak any idiom; this includes even the ability374Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5Y9zNkDbmf
to translate the ancient Centra texts just as easily, if not more so, than most reputed374Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6vD48yBG6e
scholars.374Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0S9VJlQhLj
This ability alone makes her an invaluable member of the team but there is much374Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxCfrIskmnD
more to her. Deena can also be seen, frequently, as the calmest and most collected of374Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8QgKjdTxTY
the four serving under Dhanel Marce.

Harigar Rhim
Height: 184374Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡveo33BdYPC
Hair colour: White374Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXieXEPyIHj
Eye colour: Pale Blue374Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdD4jnMNrXX
Weight: 46 - 4
Completely dressed in black and with tattoos of the same colour all over his face374Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwKuDPInbUX
that so strongly contrast with his white hair. This extraordinary swordsman entered374Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbPS1wqclD5
these elite ranks years ago and he did not do so at a young age.374Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWIGESOwUZ7
He was already a fully-grown man when he came to the castle to volunteer himself.374Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNLHyZTNZOi
He originates from the tribal village of Naruun, deep within the vast deserts to374Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9OJiVDlYLs
the south where tattoos, and other more ritualistic expressions, are a tradition.374Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf1yMRC4Q1P
The ones on his face are proud symbols of a successful rite of passage and while usually374Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJD61F84Psy
such brands are forbidden within the Human military branch, his skill was such that374Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTEKXRT7Yr3
Hervies simply could not pass on it.374Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7zuu6xUFtw
As for weaponry, he favours but the one: a thin-bladed sword holding the powers of374Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡG0RM66j9fb
lightning and one which he is most skilled with! His somewhat elongated fingernails374Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF2j8n16oJj
on the hand that wields it are a testament to his abilities, but his skills as a swordsman374Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCWpRHL6IPU
are not his only strength.374Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9fOWNcYM1l
Harigar Rhim also has the ability to understand and pick apart any known piece of374Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXBOk7RmBu1
technology. He has even been successful when paired against Nharkim tech making374Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnHsaZldBAa
him not only one of the best soldiers but also one of the best engineers any team could374Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4ZxOOitTNb
ever hope to have around.374Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0MQ2hIpsBS
Any life he might have previously owned is now shrouded in mystery - could he374Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPjAebrJcE0
have been someone important prior to joining?374Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh5dXypJnC4
A prince or a thief perhaps? Did he come seeking, or running?374Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGvfVYUSPsz
A story for him alone to carry.

Celle Erbe
Height: 182374Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡd1L5928GWP
Hair colour: Red and Blue374Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPJTtkYyVSa
Eye colour: Pale Blue374Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeHeOKmJtHW
Weight: 37 - 2
Most of the things concerning Celle have always been kept a secret to all, even to374Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF3Yxcdhpl5
those she serves with.374Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDiSRwkn13C
And what very little is known about her background is thanks to Dhanel Marce374Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7LKQpDTkrm
and his persistence in always wanting to know about those who are to work with him.374Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFztvzXnyWB
It is even rumoured that Dhanel Marce first refuted the Human king’s direct order of374Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZLsjCuZvk6
having Celle join him and his men, regardless of her power and promise.374Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡngbjOQzJZA
Truth or nay, only two can say, but the fact remains that to this day so much mystery374Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡF3AWgWnmDP
still surrounds her.374Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOVX17TMiK4
The supposed last descendant of a bygone race. The Elvorides, once the guardians of374Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkWSaBKJyg4
many treasures of the ancient world, the preservers of older things now left forgotten,374Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3WjQcrShSk
keepers of memory; but they were also the most gifted amongst all species when it374Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoxecaR4Zmo
came to the handlings of natural powers... or magic as the common folk once deemed374Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNTSUGdVfxs
to name it...374Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpeZmu4D5nZ
The Elvorides were at the very top, once, before all that technology and stolen374Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1SDFDcjZr3
knowledge came gallivanting into the hands of the lesser races effectively dethroning374Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkLUEkopIm4
them until they were heard from no more.374Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYEcL03XiCU
As the last of her kind, Celle possesses unique strengths making her most formidable374Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJtEVUTI9vN
on almost all fronts. In combat, she carries with her a strangely designed staff, a weapon374Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbipKD3CQ0D
created by the best, working under Human rule and built following ancient schematics.374Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrOTwUgRVr6
A weapon to supposedly help her control and channel her inherited powers; a gift that374Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXBWbEr4EyD
unlike any other here is meant more for focus rather than augmentation.374Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzyYg650PJZ
Thus, unlike the rest, she is not mainly dependent on her weapon to charge into374Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhCiyD5lRsm
battle; she does not need it nor any other enhancements to call forth some of the more374Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8cEHlQJyH8
unnatural ways at her disposal. She can be just as deadly while battling completely374Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJtt1KeTsld
naked for her power is herself and as such, she usually deems others as inferior.374Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEgOlJQM8v8
It would seem then to most, after mere moments of witnessing her, that there is374Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFbbHhqPk4E
nothing that Celle cannot do.

Lorian Krass
Height: 182374Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSijQSKBety
Hair colour: Pitch Black374Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzZbGIGiWBV
Eye colour: Green374Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCiOgtDposA
Weight: 45 - 4
Found a few years back as the sole survivor of a burning village to the West by374Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSAt7eYLjwl
veteran soldiers stationed in a nearby garrison. As reports go, the men spotted the374Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9pQaeCplji
sudden, tall fires from afar and came as fast as they could, but by the time they got374Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCHAdsRlQw1
there they found nothing but charred stones and burnt pieces of wood.374Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSIVQ7qhjrZ
Corpses of animals and farmers too, plenty of them, laid strewn across the streets374Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQFtQR9Rdao
and rundown houses.374Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcF01EMDL5a
Still, following the mandates of duty they scouted and searched without hope with374Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSWjIldnnJJ
the ever-gnawing doubts always on their minds... questions like...374Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEzkHRVEEGZ
What were they supposed to do? How were they to report this?374Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbzoPKxRb1o
Thoughts swirling inside their heads, but then all of that came to a stop when one374Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzsDy6jUA3f
of the men ahead began to repeatedly shout something – a survivor?374Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFLsNZOdfJ2
Impossible, and yet it was true.374Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡscqt4UVTto
They all ran to meet him; a confused and naked young man sweating profusely,374Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡctsptXYzUM
without any clothes or memory, his body so cold to the touch. Thus, the quiet survivor374Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgA2vxX0dU5
was brought back to their garrison. They tried to question him while waiting for374Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyEgWbHEp3V
instructions from the castle, but one can only go so far with a man without voice or374Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhv51nlErYX
memory. By direct word of his majesty, he was to stay a few more years in that garrison,374Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjFJsyKVwn4
under the tutelage of captain Krass who was to instruct him in all sorts of ways until374Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡikAB0kg36Z
the time would come for him to be brought to the castle. As for the reasoning of such374Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5ePxFFjnCE
a mysterious fire, no concrete answer was ever found – those that were witness to it374Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWe7mx1iFWt
reported it as they saw it. In time most learned to toss it up as the doings of a phenom*374Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAf6yVHS339
or something else of an uncanny nature.374Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4LaC5wz6e7
Due to his time under Krass’s tutelage - the man who would also name him -374Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡARxqhGKAk6
Lorian, developed many skills before he was summoned to the castle: he is a master374Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjDuJ6VxGfO
tracker the likes the Hand never had, he is also an expert on biology and botany, as374Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwTuHdqRrW6
well as most capable of crafting, and healing, most known poisons.374Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXPzXX4M7yk
In combat, he favours the usage of light armour sacrificing protection for a higher374Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgC1gTd1ces
speed of movement much like Harigar Rhim, but unlike Harigar, Lorian is not a374Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡz6o7KoOZvM
straight-out swordsman. Instead, he relies on a curved blade named ´kagra´, a weapon374Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLkxJzxOl9d
that was usually paired with a buckler but now one very seldom seen as they stopped374Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmA4KOr1GT7
being produced since the last war.374Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡW7KejuelQr
When not hiding his face with a hood, Lorian displays short black hair with a few374Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6ZdsEGJamM
brown stripes in front that are longer than the rest, a somewhat stern face despite his374Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMKUM04tDaJ
relative youth and a pair of determined green eyes.374Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY5hi5nipfx
He never speaks; his voice was never once heard since he was found, never a word374Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡenNkgv8ZY6
and whether this is by trauma or by choice, is to this day still undetermined.

Dhanel Marce
Height: 188374Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOupzggu7KC
Hair colour: Golden374Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVCSGYTptqQ
Eye colour: Blue374Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1HkowyELpk
Weight: 48 - 4
Finally, in charge of them as it always has been, a hero-like figure through and374Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡND7txRuZrN
through.374Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvzsTgDpN38
Blonde flowing hair and pale blue eyes escorting his fair skin that often can be seen374Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYqbZnxWxr6
stained with flowered scars.374Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYLA2JlELlk
Many are the tales surrounding Dhanel Marce and while arguably they are374Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0Hyie9mhK2
supported by some popular folklore, all of them share the same principle of being374Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHfEISVFBrj
portents of great bravura. Stories growing so popular that they become almost like374Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPE6WpRMA74
those epic tales one can find in the narrations of those with wilder imaginations,374Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0cOlo12VIb
as they get passed across mouth and land.374Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlBZrz9DZFP
Tales such as his latest venture where he singlehandedly went deep down into a cave374Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5u9eW1M67N
of Zabduans - Human tribes that evolution seems to have missed and are renowned374Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKhZ6YNq3fz
for their fierce, and some even say, cannibalistic ways - to save a dame left there for374Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡks5mtmZH0l
some sort of sacrificial rite. A cave deep in the Pedenke jungles a place far from any374Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqz1hm7iHFq
soldier’s orders.374Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpga8S08YEG
And that is but the latest.374Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIS3vwVfXyf
So, it seems that the undisputed leader of the five, the thumb in that kingly hand, is374Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVowYoyHfGW
a man willing to go the extra distance to do what is right.374Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2XldbutT16
The instructions he gives might often not be his own but of his king’s, but he seems374Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvJSLLjn12V
to always manage to deliver them with a certain power that makes him an easy man374Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡS17TvsXeGe
to follow.374Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKclYYv3OZG
Dhanel Marce is a man that irradiates confidence and assurance as only the leader374Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7VKNuXay3t
of the Hervies’s Hand can and so, having told all of this, it must be noted that this374Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCk8Pb5aUM6
champion has never failed his majesty... not once... not ever...
