Deena Elgo
Height: 177325Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ77jx2X4wfT
Hair colour: Black325Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbzkNH3iay8
Eye colour: Yellow325Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJxEJ3puDm3
Weight: 33 - 2
Adopted from an early age by the modest Elgo family, it is rumoured even to325Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUOQyI2Jmcd
this day, that she was originally of noble origin. Like most, the path that led her to325Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ10t46sbKN7
eventually serve in the Hand is shrouded in rumours and speculations, but she is the325Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡR1AcfgKOKK
first Human woman to do so - and that alone is quite the feat.325Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXnRnN4bnt6
With her raven hair and yellow eyes bordering on orange, she has proven her worth325Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFScZwkmYBM
time and again and while being extremely capable of felling most opponents in combat325Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5w4KctIZI5
with her agility and her speed - her main weapon of choice being the whip - her main325Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡecs23Ku7LP
importance lies elsewhere.325Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4cltYOve77
Her most notorious skill lies in linguistics for, after showing a clear aptitude, she325Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ70Cjje2slm
has been trained from the very start to speak any idiom; this includes even the ability325Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiCPtFByMKn
to translate the ancient Centra texts just as easily, if not more so, than most reputed325Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTsHb3UZkAR
scholars.325Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIk7xQruDoD
This ability alone makes her an invaluable member of the team but there is much325Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTOelinzzmW
more to her. Deena can also be seen, frequently, as the calmest and most collected of325Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhifXJoPSCN
the four serving under Dhanel Marce.

Harigar Rhim
Height: 184325Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0mjPY53va9
Hair colour: White325Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmvvdj16Lfm
Eye colour: Pale Blue325Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6plReCledv
Weight: 46 - 4
Completely dressed in black and with tattoos of the same colour all over his face325Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7xw9StrhsL
that so strongly contrast with his white hair. This extraordinary swordsman entered325Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcyAv5ypixu
these elite ranks years ago and he did not do so at a young age.325Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgv78FuKSMC
He was already a fully-grown man when he came to the castle to volunteer himself.325Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡykbJUazBo2
He originates from the tribal village of Naruun, deep within the vast deserts to325Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡueNkVWWFzN
the south where tattoos, and other more ritualistic expressions, are a tradition.325Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgsbdbj0SlR
The ones on his face are proud symbols of a successful rite of passage and while usually325Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZLbtkmuC0V
such brands are forbidden within the Human military branch, his skill was such that325Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjhpfnzgEIm
Hervies simply could not pass on it.325Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgHMkVcuagD
As for weaponry, he favours but the one: a thin-bladed sword holding the powers of325Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRX14QFCXHr
lightning and one which he is most skilled with! His somewhat elongated fingernails325Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNmNRC9GFZh
on the hand that wields it are a testament to his abilities, but his skills as a swordsman325Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJDhfHXqLHT
are not his only strength.325Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHK1p4iVQew
Harigar Rhim also has the ability to understand and pick apart any known piece of325Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZC7sejrEGB
technology. He has even been successful when paired against Nharkim tech making325Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8S2j3Fvzei
him not only one of the best soldiers but also one of the best engineers any team could325Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQihOEFrMPm
ever hope to have around.325Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ26CWiSGzjq
Any life he might have previously owned is now shrouded in mystery - could he325Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6XJ7UWcQUO
have been someone important prior to joining?325Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiA8rzIi3SP
A prince or a thief perhaps? Did he come seeking, or running?325Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1BdPyJKtn3
A story for him alone to carry.

Celle Erbe
Height: 182325Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡX9QxyNtbhY
Hair colour: Red and Blue325Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoUgMMowEWB
Eye colour: Pale Blue325Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRGvCSe9qpe
Weight: 37 - 2
Most of the things concerning Celle have always been kept a secret to all, even to325Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdSOmiEWujK
those she serves with.325Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ01yWxKP7WG
And what very little is known about her background is thanks to Dhanel Marce325Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡazP3PzLoIz
and his persistence in always wanting to know about those who are to work with him.325Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ01HHZePKV
It is even rumoured that Dhanel Marce first refuted the Human king’s direct order of325Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNS0Ki8CMlt
having Celle join him and his men, regardless of her power and promise.325Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZoOWAuV4qv
Truth or nay, only two can say, but the fact remains that to this day so much mystery325Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1g7ObLZEA4
still surrounds her.325Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf2VBxs0Ojs
The supposed last descendant of a bygone race. The Elvorides, once the guardians of325Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡajXx5L0hu2
many treasures of the ancient world, the preservers of older things now left forgotten,325Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGNb7aIwL8Z
keepers of memory; but they were also the most gifted amongst all species when it325Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkkjkdkD5RF
came to the handlings of natural powers... or magic as the common folk once deemed325Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡANxX9sVj5Y
to name it...325Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrMr0pEqC1Z
The Elvorides were at the very top, once, before all that technology and stolen325Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC1mVbCIFeZ
knowledge came gallivanting into the hands of the lesser races effectively dethroning325Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUKOZVtdGDC
them until they were heard from no more.325Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY4z6AYkeff
As the last of her kind, Celle possesses unique strengths making her most formidable325Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbeal8wcLhp
on almost all fronts. In combat, she carries with her a strangely designed staff, a weapon325Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe5XetBiNf0
created by the best, working under Human rule and built following ancient schematics.325Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMPovECtJ2h
A weapon to supposedly help her control and channel her inherited powers; a gift that325Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSMl2HhWpoZ
unlike any other here is meant more for focus rather than augmentation.325Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ26jqP5RFs9
Thus, unlike the rest, she is not mainly dependent on her weapon to charge into325Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcc6qHJTI08
battle; she does not need it nor any other enhancements to call forth some of the more325Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVlySqjZBpJ
unnatural ways at her disposal. She can be just as deadly while battling completely325Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhRi703LxkU
naked for her power is herself and as such, she usually deems others as inferior.325Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtsx3xzshWj
It would seem then to most, after mere moments of witnessing her, that there is325Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbMPMwZ9wN0
nothing that Celle cannot do.

Lorian Krass
Height: 182325Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAzN4K7clU4
Hair colour: Pitch Black325Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡY1aOezNhvw
Eye colour: Green325Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ18JX2z0kt4
Weight: 45 - 4
Found a few years back as the sole survivor of a burning village to the West by325Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJO63VSC19A
veteran soldiers stationed in a nearby garrison. As reports go, the men spotted the325Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIGfEBVCulh
sudden, tall fires from afar and came as fast as they could, but by the time they got325Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡK8RvJbkg9e
there they found nothing but charred stones and burnt pieces of wood.325Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu7gZAH1L2D
Corpses of animals and farmers too, plenty of them, laid strewn across the streets325Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwBLx3yvnj9
and rundown houses.325Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyDnrRAKHdy
Still, following the mandates of duty they scouted and searched without hope with325Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcyqoZjB6Ib
the ever-gnawing doubts always on their minds... questions like...325Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSIBmbr6F0P
What were they supposed to do? How were they to report this?325Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡojUmdtguoT
Thoughts swirling inside their heads, but then all of that came to a stop when one325Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf7WDpseJvp
of the men ahead began to repeatedly shout something – a survivor?325Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡipixYth04T
Impossible, and yet it was true.325Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzwa5YlVBGk
They all ran to meet him; a confused and naked young man sweating profusely,325Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqOcDsQJn3X
without any clothes or memory, his body so cold to the touch. Thus, the quiet survivor325Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsnIc3gWNG0
was brought back to their garrison. They tried to question him while waiting for325Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡznP1VPWA67
instructions from the castle, but one can only go so far with a man without voice or325Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuWNbmw8AbA
memory. By direct word of his majesty, he was to stay a few more years in that garrison,325Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGlD3P1juGC
under the tutelage of captain Krass who was to instruct him in all sorts of ways until325Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOlumHeLQme
the time would come for him to be brought to the castle. As for the reasoning of such325Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfxYVacIcnX
a mysterious fire, no concrete answer was ever found – those that were witness to it325Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAxSJFpQ0I5
reported it as they saw it. In time most learned to toss it up as the doings of a phenom*325Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvgiw6Makrc
or something else of an uncanny nature.325Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡghmIgmRTQz
Due to his time under Krass’s tutelage - the man who would also name him -325Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzsHSU4kD2q
Lorian, developed many skills before he was summoned to the castle: he is a master325Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBZOLl9M0j7
tracker the likes the Hand never had, he is also an expert on biology and botany, as325Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZMG44u6YVr
well as most capable of crafting, and healing, most known poisons.325Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6Dgp6XmBpS
In combat, he favours the usage of light armour sacrificing protection for a higher325Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡM1svSMYgRs
speed of movement much like Harigar Rhim, but unlike Harigar, Lorian is not a325Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡgOgFXmqACG
straight-out swordsman. Instead, he relies on a curved blade named ´kagra´, a weapon325Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZlM9jj2eIg
that was usually paired with a buckler but now one very seldom seen as they stopped325Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRoHeiO3KTP
being produced since the last war.325Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ23rlRW8bo4
When not hiding his face with a hood, Lorian displays short black hair with a few325Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1UV5VGfql6
brown stripes in front that are longer than the rest, a somewhat stern face despite his325Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuTd52ZDJeg
relative youth and a pair of determined green eyes.325Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFH2PjXF0h4
He never speaks; his voice was never once heard since he was found, never a word325Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡR2spRlNYVw
and whether this is by trauma or by choice, is to this day still undetermined.

Height: 188325Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbHZaQwf2DQ
Hair colour: Golden325Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5LvORbVmzW
Eye colour: Blue325Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFyg0NdD0vH
Weight: 48 - 4
Finally, in charge of them as it always has been, a hero-like figure through and325Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyJJIgWWbVl
through.325Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4p7V4FpVyp
Blonde flowing hair and pale blue eyes escorting his fair skin that often can be seen325Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTJqoR88xAT
stained with flowered scars.325Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGRYzzsgKx4
Many are the tales surrounding Dhanel Marce and while arguably they are325Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8708afy98Q
supported by some popular folklore, all of them share the same principle of being325Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5CGhJmsRbG
portents of great bravura. Stories growing so popular that they become almost like325Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNQUbJTIv6m
those epic tales one can find in the narrations of those with wilder imaginations,325Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡif3Ahzbvm6
as they get passed across mouth and land.325Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8xQykmLdpr
Tales such as his latest venture where he singlehandedly went deep down into a cave325Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBb35Rn6ZZX
of Zabduans - Human tribes that evolution seems to have missed and are renowned325Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh1CPGfdBSA
for their fierce, and some even say, cannibalistic ways - to save a dame left there for325Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1a5t2eoyVy
some sort of sacrificial rite. A cave deep in the Pedenke jungles a place far from any325Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTBx0pCMXLH
soldier’s orders.325Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4Ao0yDSjPJ
And that is but the latest.325Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡsciC2uu17g
So, it seems that the undisputed leader of the five, the thumb in that kingly hand, is325Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbQ1WYpeQ7s
a man willing to go the extra distance to do what is right.325Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡh79ZaLUAHi
The instructions he gives might often not be his own but of his king’s, but he seems325Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1YIpgswFy2
to always manage to deliver them with a certain power that makes him an easy man325Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9I421Ez9Un
to follow.325Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRDN9z7ZwZv
Dhanel Marce is a man that irradiates confidence and assurance as only the leader325Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnoqUZWv92N
of the Hervies’s Hand can and so, having told all of this, it must be noted that this325Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMJUsGzfkiG
champion has never failed his majesty... not once... not ever...
