Deena Elgo
Height: 177179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIaOOW4g8jr
Hair colour: Black179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAEWOaoX9oz
Eye colour: Yellow179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBbJbUrUyE6
Weight: 33 - 2
Adopted from an early age by the modest Elgo family, it is rumoured even to179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGDYLzgNSZ3
this day, that she was originally of noble origin. Like most, the path that led her to179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtvGheTKuvu
eventually serve in the Hand is shrouded in rumours and speculations, but she is the179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBc1w6pxTLZ
first Human woman to do so - and that alone is quite the feat.179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrAwwFWLfey
With her raven hair and yellow eyes bordering on orange, she has proven her worth179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUcINU0IdrL
time and again and while being extremely capable of felling most opponents in combat179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVvWKkEt2J0
with her agility and her speed - her main weapon of choice being the whip - her main179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO6ZoNjQ9jM
importance lies elsewhere.179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOLyPUJRwMn
Her most notorious skill lies in linguistics for, after showing a clear aptitude, she179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqy4Q0w8IC5
has been trained from the very start to speak any idiom; this includes even the ability179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTKBkCruro5
to translate the ancient Centra texts just as easily, if not more so, than most reputed179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQAVaOMT7cs
scholars.179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhD52QyqYjX
This ability alone makes her an invaluable member of the team but there is much179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlhDDwSesS3
more to her. Deena can also be seen, frequently, as the calmest and most collected of179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡthPql5iPgU
the four serving under Dhanel Marce.

Harigar Rhim
Height: 184179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKK3mdW6AU9
Hair colour: White179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0AVrqwCgcy
Eye colour: Pale Blue179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡy8x4Fs1JY8
Weight: 46 - 4
Completely dressed in black and with tattoos of the same colour all over his face179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbSYrftsgE1
that so strongly contrast with his white hair. This extraordinary swordsman entered179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0YSdXwpLlR
these elite ranks years ago and he did not do so at a young age.179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnw95329bKf
He was already a fully-grown man when he came to the castle to volunteer himself.179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoX0awlCrOn
He originates from the tribal village of Naruun, deep within the vast deserts to179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbGjrnOxw5y
the south where tattoos, and other more ritualistic expressions, are a tradition.179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnDFHA4llMX
The ones on his face are proud symbols of a successful rite of passage and while usually179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVa4DQX40tP
such brands are forbidden within the Human military branch, his skill was such that179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡacsZuNHEig
Hervies simply could not pass on it.179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC1TUTYhGGc
As for weaponry, he favours but the one: a thin-bladed sword holding the powers of179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLval8zaeC5
lightning and one which he is most skilled with! His somewhat elongated fingernails179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHAOfQzobHv
on the hand that wields it are a testament to his abilities, but his skills as a swordsman179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8KSNnr7vCP
are not his only strength.179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHM9kQ4xZoT
Harigar Rhim also has the ability to understand and pick apart any known piece of179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEZFCWf12nR
technology. He has even been successful when paired against Nharkim tech making179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtpt65aUghQ
him not only one of the best soldiers but also one of the best engineers any team could179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡx1FkLNQrJC
ever hope to have around.179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFOBFwD9A24
Any life he might have previously owned is now shrouded in mystery - could he179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡy5rCbKpP71
have been someone important prior to joining?179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡxeSTACS6GC
A prince or a thief perhaps? Did he come seeking, or running?179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUOacFUqKYM
A story for him alone to carry.

Celle Erbe
Height: 182179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡbbBuBzTYc3
Hair colour: Red and Blue179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ273NO1eKKS
Eye colour: Pale Blue179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡCiOnrdTtK8
Weight: 37 - 2
Most of the things concerning Celle have always been kept a secret to all, even to179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4YHcrXS16t
those she serves with.179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHobxJcysT6
And what very little is known about her background is thanks to Dhanel Marce179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0z7rlig9bs
and his persistence in always wanting to know about those who are to work with him.179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡfqOpELrrpa
It is even rumoured that Dhanel Marce first refuted the Human king’s direct order of179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC2qmfmeXhh
having Celle join him and his men, regardless of her power and promise.179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡklILfR4pSw
Truth or nay, only two can say, but the fact remains that to this day so much mystery179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9xEewOldxD
still surrounds her.179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUsZrpqNy6j
The supposed last descendant of a bygone race. The Elvorides, once the guardians of179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlQoWw6zixK
many treasures of the ancient world, the preservers of older things now left forgotten,179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGVp57H3ObU
keepers of memory; but they were also the most gifted amongst all species when it179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBeEvYpYaIG
came to the handlings of natural powers... or magic as the common folk once deemed179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡU2poF0iXMb
to name it...179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡc6m2Xd18Pa
The Elvorides were at the very top, once, before all that technology and stolen179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnjXH1qvQlX
knowledge came gallivanting into the hands of the lesser races effectively dethroning179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2epr1W1Jzt
them until they were heard from no more.179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡESg2xQAMEi
As the last of her kind, Celle possesses unique strengths making her most formidable179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuUIx3nKlqa
on almost all fronts. In combat, she carries with her a strangely designed staff, a weapon179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡG79NGgYNH3
created by the best, working under Human rule and built following ancient schematics.179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNSMIXWxl9t
A weapon to supposedly help her control and channel her inherited powers; a gift that179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡojByedQ9YA
unlike any other here is meant more for focus rather than augmentation.179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpoUOgI6b3M
Thus, unlike the rest, she is not mainly dependent on her weapon to charge into179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXpwTLS4Gyx
battle; she does not need it nor any other enhancements to call forth some of the more179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRlzz2VPiHF
unnatural ways at her disposal. She can be just as deadly while battling completely179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡR9bpgp4F7n
naked for her power is herself and as such, she usually deems others as inferior.179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡN8r2rOoqht
It would seem then to most, after mere moments of witnessing her, that there is179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcxpaDQM71f
nothing that Celle cannot do.

Lorian Krass
Height: 182179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ22tXIubJQX
Hair colour: Pitch Black179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdl9J5CEXM7
Eye colour: Green179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGCNNT92Ekd
Weight: 45 - 4
Found a few years back as the sole survivor of a burning village to the West by179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJusmRkdKs3
veteran soldiers stationed in a nearby garrison. As reports go, the men spotted the179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMGLikphKoz
sudden, tall fires from afar and came as fast as they could, but by the time they got179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSFqHVfpvsy
there they found nothing but charred stones and burnt pieces of wood.179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡb0TgtNUvDF
Corpses of animals and farmers too, plenty of them, laid strewn across the streets179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXjuyNAlshT
and rundown houses.179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡEA6Gq8OMGH
Still, following the mandates of duty they scouted and searched without hope with179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡazU3mdzKWx
the ever-gnawing doubts always on their minds... questions like...179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTlYWnU9wqF
What were they supposed to do? How were they to report this?179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKTjMWvCopV
Thoughts swirling inside their heads, but then all of that came to a stop when one179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaAv6RaDydK
of the men ahead began to repeatedly shout something – a survivor?179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡubU0C34dou
Impossible, and yet it was true.179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡP7KvbOepiq
They all ran to meet him; a confused and naked young man sweating profusely,179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuNssnlPhpf
without any clothes or memory, his body so cold to the touch. Thus, the quiet survivor179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUoLY89Ve9L
was brought back to their garrison. They tried to question him while waiting for179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5bKdmcqji8
instructions from the castle, but one can only go so far with a man without voice or179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpo2M5vORZH
memory. By direct word of his majesty, he was to stay a few more years in that garrison,179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡw5t7hz8AHV
under the tutelage of captain Krass who was to instruct him in all sorts of ways until179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeNF3AhQzAk
the time would come for him to be brought to the castle. As for the reasoning of such179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1LoA3X7Pln
a mysterious fire, no concrete answer was ever found – those that were witness to it179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡr1To5LcZpv
reported it as they saw it. In time most learned to toss it up as the doings of a phenom*179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKMgS3qUibc
or something else of an uncanny nature.179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwciABlFT7c
Due to his time under Krass’s tutelage - the man who would also name him -179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0nu7myzzIO
Lorian, developed many skills before he was summoned to the castle: he is a master179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdx8c9ICTtV
tracker the likes the Hand never had, he is also an expert on biology and botany, as179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdwpFa0TgPG
well as most capable of crafting, and healing, most known poisons.179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBEWjeHuDCM
In combat, he favours the usage of light armour sacrificing protection for a higher179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3bftI2fnVO
speed of movement much like Harigar Rhim, but unlike Harigar, Lorian is not a179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡwRVRQYpJnc
straight-out swordsman. Instead, he relies on a curved blade named ´kagra´, a weapon179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJepF2VzGAr
that was usually paired with a buckler but now one very seldom seen as they stopped179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡupreY14iAf
being produced since the last war.179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIjCeYRJtIo
When not hiding his face with a hood, Lorian displays short black hair with a few179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXj8YOxKLKB
brown stripes in front that are longer than the rest, a somewhat stern face despite his179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaa1lWKYL5m
relative youth and a pair of determined green eyes.179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡn5N4vBK1Dc
He never speaks; his voice was never once heard since he was found, never a word179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWKkLS4u10W
and whether this is by trauma or by choice, is to this day still undetermined.

Dhanel Marce
Height: 188179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ9TQP58zb5
Hair colour: Golden179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQBGZOLQrKL
Eye colour: Blue179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoZqFGd3ogh
Weight: 48 - 4
Finally, in charge of them as it always has been, a hero-like figure through and179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡKdyirlp79W
through.179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRpboCPmxFx
Blonde flowing hair and pale blue eyes escorting his fair skin that often can be seen179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡasw5hqFffv
stained with flowered scars.179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMrE1NO8YWG
Many are the tales surrounding Dhanel Marce and while arguably they are179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZ9O1wSDlNF
supported by some popular folklore, all of them share the same principle of being179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1ictZ8ceUL
portents of great bravura. Stories growing so popular that they become almost like179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMgYd3gwM4C
those epic tales one can find in the narrations of those with wilder imaginations,179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5idxaCxFVy
as they get passed across mouth and land.179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrDQmCG1177
Tales such as his latest venture where he singlehandedly went deep down into a cave179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBxh0XfjTwa
of Zabduans - Human tribes that evolution seems to have missed and are renowned179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWySJ7o5nQm
for their fierce, and some even say, cannibalistic ways - to save a dame left there for179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDOiS5o2WdA
some sort of sacrificial rite. A cave deep in the Pedenke jungles a place far from any179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡA4xZmrn1ls
soldier’s orders.179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVr4kNJuRXj
And that is but the latest.179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8VDaeXH6g9
So, it seems that the undisputed leader of the five, the thumb in that kingly hand, is179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqXnppmm9fl
a man willing to go the extra distance to do what is right.179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkkud8nOS1r
The instructions he gives might often not be his own but of his king’s, but he seems179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmtR6ZVtkzE
to always manage to deliver them with a certain power that makes him an easy man179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡu2jukPlmHd
to follow.179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrMl4vdifgd
Dhanel Marce is a man that irradiates confidence and assurance as only the leader179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFOnIxHWePV
of the Hervies’s Hand can and so, having told all of this, it must be noted that this179Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl0BWeJ4nk0
champion has never failed his majesty... not once... not ever...
