[hider=Sam Talus]NAME: Sam Talus
AGE: 19
SEX: Male
Race: Human

APPEARANCE: Tall (around 6 foot 3) olive skinned, with a lean body and relatively narrow shoulders. He has a thin face with prominent cheekbones and an angular jaw. Striking green eyes and a mess of black hair (which is roughly swept from left to right and hangs level with his eyes) give him an almost wild appearance, this is offset however, by his roguish half smile. He is usually seen wearing a dark brown leather greatcoat, which falls a few inches above his knees, and a simple black tunic, trousers and boots. A knife is usually concealed in his waistline, or in the folds of his coat.

PERSONALITY: Despite being highly cunning, he is generally friendly, but is not the most trusting of people. However this friendliness is rarely directed towards figures of authority or wealth. He is a smooth talker and usually tries to avoid conflict. However if a fight arises and he sees no way out he won't back down.

OCCUPATION: Thief

BACKGROUND: He was born the only child of a lower class family in a poor area of Indica, his father died when he was only 2, whilst working a job as a labourer on a fishing vessel. His mother struggled to raise him, until she passed away when he was aged 7, due to a illness which swept among the poor. Being homeless and penniless forced him onto the road of a thief, he learnt how to pick pockets and locks, and made many connections in the underworld. At 12 he managed to become apprentice to a locksmith, but when he too passed away only 4 years into Sam's apprenticeship, Sam once again walked the life of crime. Ever since he has been steadily increasing the scale of his crimes, and so too, his wealth. He now lives in a small, but pleasant dwelling near the centre of the city.

SKILLS: Lockpicking, Pickpocketing, Stealthy, hand to hand/melee combat

LIKES: Money, luxurious items (e.g. wine, exotic foods, paintings, etc.), women.

[hider=Till "Sea Blood" Hermann]NAME: Till "Sea Blood" Hermann
AGE: 25
SEX: M
Race: Human

APPEARANCE: A medium sized man who stands at 5'8 makes up for lack of height with a broad body type. Facial features of a Northman he has a round stout face and soft rounded nose. Not originally from Indigna he holds a naturally pale complexion (tanned from the sun) and pale grey eyes to match. He keep his hair at shoulder length and it is a dirty blonder color. His hands and feet callused from long days at sea and travel, he looks older for his age. He wears common clothes, a blue tunic and dark brown trousers.

PERSONALITY: A curious and adventurous type he has found himself in a variety of situations as a result. His time travelling before joining the military and his eventual service has taught him that many times the only way to accomplish things with those you can trust. Often strangely upbeat, he finds that life is too short holding anger he attempts to keep people around him in high spirits and will try to decrease stress in high situations. He will not stray from battle but finds that there are many other things that can be done before violence must enter the equation. Strongly loyal to the Indigan Navy and its people.

OCCUPATION: Sailor/Trader

BACKGROUND: Born in the farther northern city state of Thuaidh where the nearby sea only melts for the summer months he was not originally of the sailing persuasion. His father a humble and often times meek man, and mother a fierce and strong woman of the north many times clashed eachother. He saw from early on what a place of constant fighting can do and at first chance around the age of 14 left home and has since never looked back. He traveled, never staying in one place for too long lived by panhandling or forming tight knit groups with other vagrants in the city-states he stayed. By the age of 16 had attempted to enter into Indiga by smuggling himself aboard a trade ship. Unfortunately he was caught and was given the choice of imprisonment or serving on the ships he had tried to smuggle himself on. Not being the one to be stuck in a cage, he took the choice to be apart of the Indigan Navy. Military life surprisingly suited him, he found himself following orders and doing tasks without hesitation. Rising through the ranks, he was quickly leading a small portion of sailors on a ship as an NCO. After 8 years his enlistment was up he was a freeman, and settled down in the sailing district living off a boat he had bought with his earnings from his time in the Navy. He will often hire his boat out for small shipping and fishing expeditions. He isn't a prominent figure by any means but is apart of the Sailor guild by default because of his profession and former military service gives him ties to the Indigan Council.

SKILLS: Boating and Barter.

WEAPONS: Standard issue pike and short sword from his days in the Navy.

Ignore the, eh, sniffing glue. I found this photo on an anti-drug newspaper article. Credit goes to Reuters.com and photographer Anton Denisov.
Name: Artyom Kozhin
Race: Boring ol' Human
Age: 26
Gender: Male
Hometown: Indiga
Occupation: Fisherman
Skills: Fishing, cooking, business
Magic: Life Detection - Artyom is gifted with a weak ability to detect creatures with souls through a strong feeling or intuition. He uses this ability to assist in locating fish, after exhausting the usual methods, like following the birds, searching near reefs, etc. This ability does work on humans, animals, and ghosts, but fails on soulless creatures, such as undead and enchanted objects. The magic is easiest in close range and becomes progressively harder the more distance is used. After a mile, it only hurts him. If used for too much or at an impossible distance, Artyom suffers a terrible migraine. It is possible for Artyom to suffer an aneurysm as a result of this magic.

Artyom was raised on the outskirts of Indiga, in a small house on the docks. His father was a fisherman and determined to raise Artyom on the sea. His mother, a housewife, had no qualms with this, since Artyom loved the water so much he learned to swim before learning to walk. Once he was old enough, his father took him on their company's boat for the early morning catch. Besides the usual tired whining, Artyom loved it. He went on many more, and soon started to help the men, pointing out the largest schools of fish, and telling them to avoid spots with whales or sharks near. One-too-many accurate predictions and the men got spooked. They told his father to explain himself, 'why was his son so good, he's not even a real fisher.' His father sat him down for a long talk, and Artyom explained that is he concentrated hard he could 'feel' the creatures nearby. First the men on the boat, then the fish below, and the birds above. Bigger things are easier to pinpoint, but they also hurt more. He just wanted to help out.

His dad laughed, finding this rather amusing for some reason. Explaining this to the men, Artyom was let back on the ship. Some of the guys were still suspicious, but they soon realized his gift was very helpful. It cut down on time, allowing them to catch more and avoid danger. Once he grew big enough, Artyom was allowed to start fishing too. In five years they gained enough money to purchase another boat and expand their shop. The disaster at Crimsia helped too by giving them more customers. Artyom used his earnings to buy a small house, and now lives there. He still works for the same small fishing company.

(Note: I'd say Artyom's a "novice" with his magic.)

✗Race: Human
✗Height: 5'1''

✗City-State: Indiga
✗Occupation: Seamstress

✗Hair Color: Dark Brown
✗Eye Color: Green

✗Personality: Independent. Sarcastic. Free Spirited. Adventurous. Flirtatious. Hot Tempered.

✗History/Biography: "Momma, when is Papa coming home?"

Evangeline tugged at the corner of her mother's apron. The large, strong woman stared out of the small kitchen window with a blank and empty stare. There was no reply. There never would be. It had been an entire year since Evangeline's father had gone to sea. Rumor had it that he made some true riches and left his family behind, off to find something better- if you could call it that. Some claimed he had just died a watery death, like most men did. It wouldn't be the first time news traveled back to their small section of another taken.

A few years before that the Delvine family was happy and complete as they could be. Mr. Delvine would go on his boat trips, come home after many of months with money, treasures, and exciting stories. Evangeline would crawl into her father's strong arms, her large green eyes looking at him in complete awe as he showcased his life before her. He was her hero, and she was his princess.

Years and years passed and Evangeline got older, the stories still remained in the whispered slurs. "Did you hear her father left the two women alone to fend for themselves? I heard he has a wife and child in every city from here past Crimsia!" These stories brought only anger to Evangeline. She had a feeling her father was alive, and nothing would stop her from proving it. Often being spotted with and around the boys, she spent a lot of time learning to swim, sail, fish, and fight. Though her mother didn't say so directly, Evangeline could feel in her mother's icy stares that she didn't want her only daughter, her only family member left to even think about stepping foot near the water ever again. But time after time and day after day, Evangeline swam, sailed, fished, and fought.

It wasn't a huge surprise when Mrs. Delvine forced her daughter to learn another trait during their hardships, and that skill was sewing. Eva took it upon herself to make a living for the two women, taking up jobs here and there whether they had to do with sewing, fishing, or some small manual labor to keep her mother quiet and not belittle Eva into an early grave.

Evangeline yearned for more. She wanted to find information about her father, and would not stop until she did.
