Lester (also called 'the L') is a figure of almost legendary- although somewhat dubious- stature. He is a half-elf with swarthy features, with curly black hair worn in an afro, a thick beard and moustache, wearing dark shades across his eyes. Lester, like many of the party, has been touched by Chaos on numerous occasions. Of all the party, he is the one most opposed to Law by nature. Among other things, his dalliances with Chaos have given him a pair of bat-like wings and taken away one of his arms- though his cohort has obtained a scroll of <em>wish</em> to return it to him. Lester wields the sword Felix Optima Maxima, a powerful intelligent blade that is purposed to oppose the terrible clockwork horrors. The elementalist core class, as well as the warrior of chaos and paraelementalist prestige classes, can be found on a Yahoo Group called 'Cydra' (named after my campaign world) for anyone who is interested.</p><p></p><p><strong>Orbius, the Eye of Boccob</strong>, a diviner 7/divine oracle 9. Orbius is a human, and a strong proponent of 'knowing thy enemy'. He has determined that the Bile Lords, powerful enemies of the party, will attack when the group is sorely beset, and is terribly concerned by the possibility.

Sybele is generally considered to be a slut by the rest of the group; many of them have lain with her, and she has even propositioned a storm giant in the past.</p><p></p><p><strong>Angelfire, also called the Angel of Fire or simply Angel</strong>, a human (with the fire subtype) psychic warrior 13/cleric 3 of Coila, the goddess of time.
