[h3][center]~The Queen who holds a Dying Wish~[/center][/h3] [center][hider=The Queen][img]https://i.imgur.com/3Vkizv6.jpg[/img] [b]Name:[/b] Queen Sorcha Mulryan Hair, the color of sun. Eyes which reflect nothing but a clear blue sky. A Voice loud as thunder and judgement swift as lightning. If one were to look at this person claiming to be the reincarnation of the Old King, they'd be hard pressed to find any reason to doubt her. Possessing power that can fell Fomorians in single strokes, a charisma that can rile the spirits in even the most downtrodden, there is little question about her abilities and powers. Now whether she is truly the reincarnation of that old king...well, that remains to be seen. Her attitude certainly, leaves much to be desired sometimes in that area according to some. Boisterous and friendly, the queen prefers getting her hands dirty and being in the front line with everyone else. She will, if given the chance, join her knights on any tasks they might have even if she other things to tend to. She certainly drinks enough to make one question her kingly attire and will often get involved in drinking contests with her knights. That is to say - she does not hold herself to some higher standard than her knights. She lives with them, and treats them no differently than one would anyone else. However, even then she still carries a certain air of regality and beauty as if someone was looking at a sunrise itself close that it feels like one could touch, yet still so far away. Her past is not something she speaks of, with the excuse that 'she must look forwards to the future', but take a rest during the hours of dawn and one may just find her gazing longingly over the sea, or watching the sun rise across the mountains with a melancholic, wistful expression as if remembering times long past. She arrived in Albion roughly a year ago, in a little village by the name of Airedale, saving it from an attack by Fomorians. Since then she has made it her base of operations. She's fortified the town, and has miraculously sanctified the ground - allowing the curse that runs deep within the land to be held off, allowing for more than simple crops to be grown. Many rumors have already drawn a number of people to her side, and she has sought out the notable people of the land, asking simply for alliances and support. Of course, such things do not come easily and many are not so happy with this unknown woman making claims upon what they see as their land. Yet still, with a hand held out, a gentle smile she asks simply - [color=fff79a]"Will you join me?"[/color] [/hider] [/center] [h3][center]-Knights of the Realm-[/center][/h3] [hider=The Squire] [center][img]https://i.imgur.com/7D64SU7.jpg[/img][/center] Name: Lugh Gender: male Age: 16 Abilities: While Tuatha magic may run deep and while it seems he isn't very proficient at it as of now, he seems to be naturally gifted with fire and lightning based magics. As well, he can generally sense the presence of otherworldly or magical effects in the area and can sense the corruption of the Betrayed God. Skilled with most weapons, though not quite possessing the ability of a seasoned knight. History: A young boy in Queen Sorcha's care. A Tuatha child whose parents were in Airedale when the Fomorians sacked the village. After losing his parents in the attack, she took him under her wing. Possesses a surprisingly sturdy and hardy fortitude for a young man, and has been extensively trained to use all manner of weapons, though favors a spear. A somewhat serious sort and a bit of a romantic that is easily swept up in tales of heroism and knighthood, but tends to get flustered easily, especially when Sorcha and others dote on him. [/hider] [hider=The Cursed] [center][img]https://i.imgur.com/choOvOK.jpg[/img][/center] Name: Elnith Gender: Female Age: 24 Abilities: The curse the fey placed on her is something of a double-edged sword. It gives her monstrous physical ability, being able to match most fomorians in strength blow-for blow, and generally outlast them even in battles of stamina. As well, it also generally makes her mostly immune to other curses of similar types, being able to naturally resist them. However, it also has the rather nasty effect of occasionally causing her to fly into monstrous fits of rage and once the curse as completely run its curse, turn her into something resembling a Fomorian herself. Her sword, pilfered from the corpse of a fomorian has the ability to 'Always reach its target' That is to say, it possess a rather unique ability to warp space around it so that it is always able to reach that which its wielder attempts to strike so long as its within her line of sight. The armor, while maybe not being the most practical, is of giant make given to her as a gift by some of the giants of Llobrokr after befriending them. It protects the wearer from most magical effects that would cloud the mind or the body and restrains the curse placed on her so its less potent. History: Elnith has a rather nasty and quite honestly - terrible reputation in the land. Born to some parents whos faces she can't remember, some years ago that she can't exactly recall, in a village that no longer exists. Elnith has not had a happy life for the simple reason that at birth, she was cursed by a Fairy. A curse that would 'Turn her into a beast that slaughtered her own kind'. Needless to say, knowing Fey magic carries real consequences and fearing for their lives...the parents left her in the forest, unwilling to kill her and too cowardly to even attempt raising her. If it hadn't been for a passing hunter that had took pity on a defenseless baby, she'd probably have just died. Her life from there to now is fairly colored. She spent her days training, figuring that a stronger body could resist the curse. That a strong mind could withstand it - its certainly helped, but there are times when she simply can't help herself and gets lost in the thrill of battle whatever it is. Not to say the rumors that surround her - that she slaughtered entire villages of people, that she's simply a fomorian wearing human skin, and other such things. Well, all rumors have a kernel of truth to them... Rather than her finding the queen, the Queen sought her out on rumors of a 'demon knight slaughtering humans' but upon seeing a girl that looked like and as the queen stated 'just needed a hug', she made her an offer. Elnith accepted, elated that someone saw something in her other than some...cursed individual. Despite her reputation and such, Elnith is surprisingly friendly with people, though often gets into bouts of depression and a bit of self-loathing if left alone for too long, believing that one day she will turn against her fellow knights. Doesn't help sometimes she'll blackout at night, wake up in an entirely different area with only hazy memories of what occurred. She tries to keep a positive outlook, and since meeting the queen she's certainly gained a somewhat more mixed reputation.

That is, in his words the ability to perceive the multiple results an action can take based on factors known to him and always be able to choose the one with the best possible result for himself in direct combat, or the one with greatest likelihood of success. Its not perfect, of course. He's only able to take factors he knows of is into account and the results aren't always perfect, and the Leargas can be quite draining on the body. Aside from this Vyrell's sword was found in a secluded grove, in what appeared to be a small shrine to some now defunct god. While he doesn't know much about it, he's learned that the God was once one of Dreams and Insight. The blade itself doesn't seem to possess much special ability, and he's always looking for information regarding it. History: Possessing sharp mind, keen intellect, and even keener senses, Vyrell has led a charmed life, perhaps thanks to his Elvish blood. No one in his family can quite remember how far back it was - but they all can claim one thing for certain - they [i]do[/i] have elvish blood in them. With a practical mind and a desire to learn and master all forms of combat, Vyrell seeks one thing above all else perfection in the art of battle. In such pursuits, he's studied under the Tuatha, sought out his Elvish cousins within the Forests of Lylmesari - and even studied under a Fomorian who saw potential of some sort in the boy. As for how he came into the Queens service - having made quite a name for himself in the land, quite a few people were eager to employ him in a way, even the current monarch of Harzelslack, a king that claims Lineage to one of the more famous knights from Myth. Why? He says he was just curious about the queen initially, but upon seeing her, despite her sometimes less than kingly attitudes she has, he was convinced that she was the one who could lead this land.

Seems exceptionally skilled with a bow and arrow and perhaps some sort of wind-magic on her side. A thief of some renown, especially in Harzelslack where she's known to steal from the rich, though its not exclusive to just them. She'd stolen from the Dwarves and Tuatha just as much.
