Here's my first of two characters. Note that two isn't required, but two mains are the max per person to keep it from getting confusing. Name: Cyprian of Naissos Race: Human Age: 29 Appearance: (see below) Backstory: Born a peasant, Cyprian joined the army of a petty Omicrian lord and rose through the ranks of his army before being laid off after cutbacks. He traveled to a monastery and was hired as a guard. He considered joining a the monks there, but after gaining access to their library, he learned about the history of Omicria and its tragic fall, as well as hints about where the palace of Anthedon was located. The books in the monastery also contained some magical spells, and he has learned some from them, along with some instruction from the abbott, who was a mage himself. Cyprian left the monastery in search of the key to the palace, along with other adventurers who could help him to find it.

Name: Alyssa Age: 25 Appearance: (See Below) Backstory: As with all orc tribes, the females are expected to follow certain roles, same as most other species. Alyssa's tribe, the White Claws, allowed their females to act as hunters and trackers alongside the males, at least until marriage. By then, Alyssa would have been expected to drop hunting in favor of tending to the needs of hearth and children. It wasn't an arrangement she was at all upset about until she learned that her parents and her chief had arranged for her to marry a warrior who already have four wives. As polygamy isn't looked down on by the orcs- and is in fact encourged for the strongest males when it comes to collecting wives- this was seen as normal. Alyssa ran away the night before her wedding, not wanting to be locked in a polygamous marriage, or at last, not as the fifth wife in an already-large household.
