Saberhoof is a dark brown horse with a black mane and tail. Myna raised him herself, and he likes her very much, particularly because she often has apples or carrots for him. Saberhoof is outfitted with a dark brown leather riding saddle, a bit and bridle (his name is worked into the leather of his halter), and a pair of saddlebags (that contain a care kit of currycomb, brush, and hoofpick). Saberhoof knows the following tricks: Attack, Defend, Guard, Down, Come, and Stay.

Appearance: Myna Basi might have the appearance, at first glance, of being a contradiction. She is not particularly tall or short, but quite heavily-muscled for a normal woman. Her skin is a deep nut brown, but her eyes are pale gray. Her hair, though long, is as white as an old woman’s which sometimes gives people the impression she is far older than she really is. Though time in the sun has given her creases at the corners of her eyes, she is barely past her second decade.

She wears a fine suit of chain mail when she travels or stands guard, keeping her distinctive hair tucked up under her helm. She bears a light shield with the device of the emperor upon it to mark her as one of the soldiers in his army, and also has a fine longsword given to her after the completion of a dangerous but successful scouting mission. However, despite this honor, she prefers to wield her heavy flail or Lucerne hammer in battle, after picking off those she can with her longbow.

Personality: Myna has a soft voice and a strong will, enough to have gotten herself all the way to the emperor’s army from her humble upbringings. Feeling that she has paid her dues thus far, she does not appreciate being called a slacker or coward. She is entirely willing to help do her part in mundane tasks, but truly enjoys combat. Her own natural athleticism sometimes gives her a false sense of confidence in her abilities, but she’s come out on top so far, so will rarely believe evidence to the contrary.

Background: Myna was born the daughter of a horse trader who often sold horses to the emperor’s army. Though she had spent much of her life helping her aged father in taming and training the brutes, it was unlikely that she was going to be able to follow her own path until her father either died or gave up his business. She never really consciously wished for her father’s death, though she often dreamed of the ability to make her own choices. Her mother had died in childbirth, attempting to give her father a son, when Myna was ten. Since then the two had lived on the road, traveling and training with horses.

When Myna was fourteen, her father was trampled to death when the herd stampeded. Myna had been away attempting to gentle a skittish two-year-old when it happened, and it was she who discovered her father’s body. Saddened and heartbroken, and feeling guilty because of her secret wish, Myna buried her father’s body and took the wealth they had accumulated. She spent the next few years traveling, attempting to find forgetfulness, or at least an acceptance within herself. This oftentimes resulted in rather reckless and self-destructive behavior, such as getting into fights or riling up people far more powerful or stronger than her.

She had an epiphany one quite summer’s night as she slept out under the stars with just a single candle for company. She watched a moth circle the candleflame, darting around it, seeming to challenge it, daring itself to see how close it would get. Eventually it got too close to the flames and burned, and she watched in fascinated horror as it flew on burning wings, spiraling to the ground and dying. Somehow she knew that the moth was herself, and she was very close to burning. From that night onward, her hair turned white.

Taking herself to the nearest station of the army, Myna presented herself for training, showing her skill with horses as well as the bow she used to hunt with. She was accepted and taught with the other recruits, learning sword, flail, and polearm in order to fight for His Imperial Majesty. She had taken to calling herself Moth, a nickname that the others accepted when she looted a cloak with moth pattern on the back. She has proven herself to be quite a good soldier in the past few months, and one of her commanders gave her the impression that she might be ready for some solo work.

Gerald Seaton


Background: Gerald Seaton was born into a minor noble family, but you’d never be able to tell now. About 20 years ago, his grandfather, Hennet, was publicly revealed to be a sorcerer. The government seized most of the family’s resources, and he mysteriously died mere days later. Afterwards, the Seatons fell into disfavor, and were forced to move to a poorer part of the city and get jobs. Marie and Josem, Gerald’s parents, have been bitter ever since. Sometimes Gerard will try to get information about what actually happened from his dad, but Josem just says he doesn’t want to talk about ‘that bastard.’

Gerald was only 2 years old when his grandfather died, so while his parents are bitter about what they’ve lost, to him it’s just life as normal. Knowing that Gerard is out ‘slumming with the locals’ hasn’t improved their disposition. To Gerald, he’s just doing what everyone does. He doesn’t understand why his parents get upset about it.

Gerald spends his days cleaning dishes at one of the nicer restaurants in the area, and his nights drinking and gambling. Between his silver tongue and iron stomach, he’s developed a reputation as a good person to have around if you want to have a good time, and is well known in the seedier parts of town.

His life has taken a more unusual turn in the last few months since Henry appeared. Henry is a snake that mysteriously arrived in Gerald’s house recently. Gerald isn’t sure how he arrived, he just remembers waking up one morning, and feeling upset without knowing why. Then he walked into the kitchen and found his mom whacking a snake with a broom. For some reason, he decided to save the snake and keep it. (Much to his mother’s chagrin.) Over the next few days, he discovered he could tell when the snake was happy or unhappy, or if it was hungry. Around the same time, he started being able to do… other stuff. He’s not really sure how the snake is involved, but it seems important, so he named it Henry and keeps it in a cage in his room.

Soon after Henry’s arrival, Gerald was approached by a mysterious man who claimed to be working for the emperor. He needed help tracking down a murderer. The guy seemed honest to Gerald so he decided to help, and quickly found the murderer through some of his local friends. Afterwards, the man offered him a position in a covert organization working for the emperor. It sounded interesting, so Gerald decided to do that too.

Personality: Gerald is a very easy-going person, and generally just floats wherever life takes him. He has a tendency to get into trouble, and a tendency to always get back out of it unscathed. If you’re talking about something more than 5 minutes in the future, there’s a good chance he’s not listening. But later he’ll convince you that he was.

Appearance: Gerald is about 5’11”, with light brown hair and bright blue eyes. His hair is short and curly. He has a cheerful demeanor, and usually looks like he’s happy about something even if he’s not. He usually wears a simple tunic and trousers, although if he’s expecting trouble he’ll have his trusty chain shirt on under the tunic, and his sword and shield hanging from his belt.

The shield is one of the few remains of his family’s noble history, and belonged to his great great such and such. He wasn’t paying attention when his mom told him. His parents would be pretty upset if they found out he was carrying their heirloom all over the city, so he painted it black to match the old one it replaced for him. Having done so could be a problem if his parents ever notice it missing, but he didn’t plan that far ahead.

Appearance:
Urik's appearance as Urik Kastis, Singer of tales: Black hair blue eyes thin build. He usually wears a Grey cloak that is brown on the inside, and can be easily turned around. He also dons 3 layers of clothing (he wears his mithral armor underneath his clothes) and each layer is of a different color. If need be, Urik can quickly tear a layer, to change his clothes and he will then change his appearance. This has helped him on a few occasions.

Personality:
Urik is goodhearted but wery suspicious. He is cunning and seeks information about happenings in the city. His ultimate goal is to find more of his kind, and to be reunited with his parents.

Background:
Urik was born and raised in the city. Both of his parents were changelings and thought him from an early age how to control his ability to change his appearance.

Magic has always been part of Urik's life. His parents were also bards and schooled him on the basics of the arcane arts and how to influence "normals" with his voice and singing. Thay said that these abilities came from his ancestors, who roamed the forests when the land was yound and thriving.
Now, the land is dying, and his kind is disapearing. When Urik became 15, his parents gave him the mithral armor he religously wears to this day.

When Urik was 16, the city guards stormed his family's house by suprise and his parents were taken away by the city guards. Luckily, his parents heard them coming and they hid him. The gave him some gold, a few scroolls and a wand of cure light wounds (that he luckily never had to use). He managed to escape, but he never saw his parents again.

He spent a few years roaming in the city, learning about its secrets and the secrets of those that control it. His changeling abilities helped him during this period, because he could change his identity over night. One week he would be an old man, another, a beggar, another a servant. During this time, he tried to earn as much as he could about his kind, and where his parents might be. He never learned anything.

He grew tired of this lifestyle, and about one year ago, he became Urik Kastis, Singer of tales, and started to make a name for himself as a bard. He now lives alone in an appartment he rents, above a bar where he regularly performs.

A few weeks back, he met a man in that offered to employ him int he Emperor's service. Urik jumped on the occasion, because it could allow him to learn a thing or two about his parents. Also, He wasn't making a fortune performing, so extra cahs would be nice
