Height: 177300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ72yB6GBuaf
Hair colour: Black300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxSdffEfALG
Eye colour: Yellow300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJcuvL2Hht4
Weight: 33 - 2
Adopted from an early age by the modest Elgo family, it is rumoured even to300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzospz1Dupe
this day, that she was originally of noble origin. Like most, the path that led her to300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeEKGBNary7
eventually serve in the Hand is shrouded in rumours and speculations, but she is the300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXyVACTXKgQ
first Human woman to do so - and that alone is quite the feat.300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7nUtLgNXRp
With her raven hair and yellow eyes bordering on orange, she has proven her worth300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBbiPek8qma
time and again and while being extremely capable of felling most opponents in combat300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMxS2293eAB
with her agility and her speed - her main weapon of choice being the whip - her main300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRBnHxjNxxV
importance lies elsewhere.300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWqVgIwLO77
Her most notorious skill lies in linguistics for, after showing a clear aptitude, she300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIbkpcQTrQT
has been trained from the very start to speak any idiom; this includes even the ability300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOghw7xK0nP
to translate the ancient Centra texts just as easily, if not more so, than most reputed300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpyG7d8VcBu
scholars.300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4yA2Fw1xFg
This ability alone makes her an invaluable member of the team but there is much300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxmE5pYhExl
more to her. Deena can also be seen, frequently, as the calmest and most collected of300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnzi0d53BT4
the four serving under Dhanel Marce.

Harigar Rhim
Height: 184300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtaWosbP7t6
Hair colour: White300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0FzpmRDp0f
Eye colour: Pale Blue300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDq6kHYSdhM
Weight: 46 - 4
Completely dressed in black and with tattoos of the same colour all over his face300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHX8i17wkf9
that so strongly contrast with his white hair. This extraordinary swordsman entered300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHfxDguh2Jd
these elite ranks years ago and he did not do so at a young age.300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdQtsU8aiRW
He was already a fully-grown man when he came to the castle to volunteer himself.300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC0GUWs9Gc1
He originates from the tribal village of Naruun, deep within the vast deserts to300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4W59qOea1b
the south where tattoos, and other more ritualistic expressions, are a tradition.300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbtGTbEeyPh
The ones on his face are proud symbols of a successful rite of passage and while usually300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhxOAVRvyJK
such brands are forbidden within the Human military branch, his skill was such that300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLtPXLE4kd1
Hervies simply could not pass on it.300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3UjQqdKJs0
As for weaponry, he favours but the one: a thin-bladed sword holding the powers of300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtuGDMKTn6n
lightning and one which he is most skilled with! His somewhat elongated fingernails300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtgIp2aKa5e
on the hand that wields it are a testament to his abilities, but his skills as a swordsman300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJpmuoNRudR
are not his only strength.300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2dulRvmhLz
Harigar Rhim also has the ability to understand and pick apart any known piece of300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP898xUknq0
technology. He has even been successful when paired against Nharkim tech making300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9NWY3YCsa0
him not only one of the best soldiers but also one of the best engineers any team could300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3jae2Nn1JT
ever hope to have around.300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡypQCzzZFh1
Any life he might have previously owned is now shrouded in mystery - could he300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIsXbcaoBKX
have been someone important prior to joining?300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBEvQDZhNk9
A prince or a thief perhaps? Did he come seeking, or running?300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjQ2Qrvl6uJ
A story for him alone to carry.

Celle Erbe
Height: 182300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEL4GUjZLaJ
Hair colour: Red and Blue300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBe91uHtePH
Eye colour: Pale Blue300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlw5Fu34tPm
Weight: 37 - 2
Most of the things concerning Celle have always been kept a secret to all, even to300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmi72mvxsjp
those she serves with.300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMJ8ZeTAaDC
And what very little is known about her background is thanks to Dhanel Marce300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSPoMZlyzW5
and his persistence in always wanting to know about those who are to work with him.300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlb2LnNiwMK
It is even rumoured that Dhanel Marce first refuted the Human king’s direct order of300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUVDPLw30tR
having Celle join him and his men, regardless of her power and promise.300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGG2PlNyaeF
Truth or nay, only two can say, but the fact remains that to this day so much mystery300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWfvGcJ6VTJ
still surrounds her.300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFpkVIhF7Ct
The supposed last descendant of a bygone race. The Elvorides, once the guardians of300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ65OilRYZns
many treasures of the ancient world, the preservers of older things now left forgotten,300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT0zpprtupp
keepers of memory; but they were also the most gifted amongst all species when it300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYuAfKxydzp
came to the handlings of natural powers... or magic as the common folk once deemed300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6DC2ihV7uX
to name it...300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgYCuZrzRDn
The Elvorides were at the very top, once, before all that technology and stolen300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuqHoorEbw7
knowledge came gallivanting into the hands of the lesser races effectively dethroning300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj9zSbTA9di
them until they were heard from no more.300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaCK4UnrIEP
As the last of her kind, Celle possesses unique strengths making her most formidable300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1iyH5DX0po
on almost all fronts. In combat, she carries with her a strangely designed staff, a weapon300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJvQQm2RQPe
created by the best, working under Human rule and built following ancient schematics.300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX60ZJD7zsB
A weapon to supposedly help her control and channel her inherited powers; a gift that300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlGxy7NdOvJ
unlike any other here is meant more for focus rather than augmentation.300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPEsxeKrxQn
Thus, unlike the rest, she is not mainly dependent on her weapon to charge into300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe4h7txhvO7
battle; she does not need it nor any other enhancements to call forth some of the more300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdEnwkDl07b
unnatural ways at her disposal. She can be just as deadly while battling completely300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ486NcyEUtg
naked for her power is herself and as such, she usually deems others as inferior.300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRGf0si3IeI
It would seem then to most, after mere moments of witnessing her, that there is300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe1HP3oC5xI
nothing that Celle cannot do.

Lorian Krass
Height: 182300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmy5otqZ2zk
Hair colour: Pitch Black300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiYW5lg5g14
Eye colour: Green300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡv0D7cBzpWO
Weight: 45 - 4
Found a few years back as the sole survivor of a burning village to the West by300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡONx93Yaz9B
veteran soldiers stationed in a nearby garrison. As reports go, the men spotted the300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAMyy8AGZ7T
sudden, tall fires from afar and came as fast as they could, but by the time they got300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcaXHsuG2LX
there they found nothing but charred stones and burnt pieces of wood.300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ96ZFbvQA43
Corpses of animals and farmers too, plenty of them, laid strewn across the streets300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgQtlbpiuCX
and rundown houses.300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPoKk6rkAWx
Still, following the mandates of duty they scouted and searched without hope with300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlrpL553KQS
the ever-gnawing doubts always on their minds... questions like...300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsfosXd3ivO
What were they supposed to do? How were they to report this?300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqgCpYuOMIt
Thoughts swirling inside their heads, but then all of that came to a stop when one300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡa3RKoafWLS
of the men ahead began to repeatedly shout something – a survivor?300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWcGzj4RqGr
Impossible, and yet it was true.300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYFCDFLBDIM
They all ran to meet him; a confused and naked young man sweating profusely,300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjMBY89owIW
without any clothes or memory, his body so cold to the touch. Thus, the quiet survivor300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMkfQuxi2Ap
was brought back to their garrison. They tried to question him while waiting for300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrhZ0zwag3x
instructions from the castle, but one can only go so far with a man without voice or300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡctqMyzG3OQ
memory. By direct word of his majesty, he was to stay a few more years in that garrison,300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡq5N3S2WqDy
under the tutelage of captain Krass who was to instruct him in all sorts of ways until300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfdBFoxY7TG
the time would come for him to be brought to the castle. As for the reasoning of such300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIjoQumXVk0
a mysterious fire, no concrete answer was ever found – those that were witness to it300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡL09MmSTIxU
reported it as they saw it. In time most learned to toss it up as the doings of a phenom*300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNZvYVJdsLQ
or something else of an uncanny nature.300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2PEyMnUTjc
Due to his time under Krass’s tutelage - the man who would also name him -300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡa58mGfWFl9
Lorian, developed many skills before he was summoned to the castle: he is a master300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvUkDZM1Wvo
tracker the likes the Hand never had, he is also an expert on biology and botany, as300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡThWagOQgHO
well as most capable of crafting, and healing, most known poisons.300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0QtVTrqLNq
In combat, he favours the usage of light armour sacrificing protection for a higher300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRxW7eaM1nW
speed of movement much like Harigar Rhim, but unlike Harigar, Lorian is not a300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQgnbRHGdOe
straight-out swordsman. Instead, he relies on a curved blade named ´kagra´, a weapon300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRIiu6ObK2j
that was usually paired with a buckler but now one very seldom seen as they stopped300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN2uHKmX9oe
being produced since the last war.300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyuY7v2eY7w
When not hiding his face with a hood, Lorian displays short black hair with a few300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX9uFv0m8pb
brown stripes in front that are longer than the rest, a somewhat stern face despite his300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpq4hRnkjUX
relative youth and a pair of determined green eyes.300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4Qb9tc7bkz
He never speaks; his voice was never once heard since he was found, never a word300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVV2mehr7Ki
and whether this is by trauma or by choice, is to this day still undetermined.

Hair colour: Golden300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqWacko6qli
Eye colour: Blue300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBr5WoabBPu
Weight: 48 - 4
Finally, in charge of them as it always has been, a hero-like figure through and300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu7BSadB5Wj
through.300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhVqIdqwm4J
Blonde flowing hair and pale blue eyes escorting his fair skin that often can be seen300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIgtQrpXOhu
stained with flowered scars.300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmK1rmdNzB4
Many are the tales surrounding Dhanel Marce and while arguably they are300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJNKM37kR3y
supported by some popular folklore, all of them share the same principle of being300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡM3OpWYDP2Z
portents of great bravura. Stories growing so popular that they become almost like300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡK2MrLQrjiL
those epic tales one can find in the narrations of those with wilder imaginations,300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUXndqgUvyB
as they get passed across mouth and land.300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡstjgEhg9E7
Tales such as his latest venture where he singlehandedly went deep down into a cave300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwnLNf23Yk8
of Zabduans - Human tribes that evolution seems to have missed and are renowned300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ5EkqNOrdE
for their fierce, and some even say, cannibalistic ways - to save a dame left there for300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡit5Nxk1kav
some sort of sacrificial rite. A cave deep in the Pedenke jungles a place far from any300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgrZ6nXKJyY
soldier’s orders.300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh3HUH8VBzX
And that is but the latest.300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiKBuREbSMB
So, it seems that the undisputed leader of the five, the thumb in that kingly hand, is300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0WcAcYKIWV
a man willing to go the extra distance to do what is right.300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgFbDac3AiQ
The instructions he gives might often not be his own but of his king’s, but he seems300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqQj4ueaf1l
to always manage to deliver them with a certain power that makes him an easy man300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAVI1unxava
to follow.300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPSpRhyXvKs
Dhanel Marce is a man that irradiates confidence and assurance as only the leader300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡirU1IlAkNF
of the Hervies’s Hand can and so, having told all of this, it must be noted that this300Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlbusIyvUoF
