Age: 48

Dislikes: Death knights, Guards and foresters, people in robes and/or metal armour who cause trouble (they are asking for it)

Quote: "Ahoy-oy, I don't do demons!, What? another ghoul?, Wana bet?"
"In Dionne we trust" In a small community of elves some distance from Grimsburgh, Dionne was born into a family of scholars and philosophers. It seemed that he destiny was crafting him in to a great thinker. Childhood as an elf with little responsibility proved near idyllic. Eventually, however, perhaps due to the staid nature of his parents or his tiring of his civilized bohemian fellows, Dionne developed wanderlust - a trait rarely found in elves. After leaving his community on good terms with his "extended family" and in high spirits, Dionne soon met up with a band of entertainers. Attracted by their refreshingly vibrant and care free attitudes, Dionne decided to join them and learn their trade. The next few months were, perhaps, the best of his life thus far. Fate it seemed had a different plan in store. Upon nearing Grimsburgh while touring towards the area, the troupe was set upon by bandits. The group were massacred to a man. Apart from Dionne, however, who was left for dead. After dragging himself to the walls of Grimsburgh, he was healed by members of the Vleyborian church. He decided to spend one last night alone before returning home. With a few hours of gambling at "one armed Wanda's" Dionnes luck had changed considerably. Recognizing  the debt he owed to the Lady he joined the Traldan church as a devotee so he could praise the Lady.

Age: 33

Likes:  A good 'home brew' round a camp fire

Dislikes: Slave traders, Undead, Axirians, Storveggans and the destruction of nature.

Quote: ill blind em you charge em

 
Stolen from Grimsburgh as a child; sold into slavery (I was luckier than most) on masters death I was set free and embarked on a journey to find my family. Along the way I encountered an old woman living alone in the woods. She was frail and in return for my services as a house maid, she tutored me in natures art and I became a herbalist. On her death I resumed the search for my family; I arrived in Grimsburgh but the trail of my family went cold. I have remained in Grimsburgh ever since, repaying their kind acceptance and hospitality by the use of my craft in the fight against their enemies (of which there are many!!!).

Quote: "Right! I've had enough, I'm gona stab it"
Kin was born and raised in Grimsburgh. He didn't have many friends but he did know Belladonna and would often play with her as a child. He learnt of the guild of Mages through Belladonnas stories and he became very interested in them.  He survived the invasion by the Storveggans on Grimsburgh (barely), and now he and his family try to provide as much money as they can for the town . He is currently a Demonologist, striving to sort out one of  Grimsburghs many problems. The strange thing is, no matter where he goes, places seem to get set on fire. He swears it's not his fault.

Likes: Hitting stuff and a good easy fight

Dislikes: Orcs and goblins and running away

Quote: if it can die, kill it. If it's dead kill it again
Orin moved to Grimsburgh not long ago from the south. A difficult task in itself due to Wheelsby's incursion on the lands. He was forced out of his home because of a band of mercenaries called the Red Masked Orcs. They raided villages and destroyed towns and one such town was that of Orins. Due to the attacks he has a great hatred of them. He was an orphan in his village, teaching himself the skills he needed to survive but getting in to fights was all he ever seemed to do.

Born in the year 122 on a far off grassy plainsland, the young elf grew up with the name Usti Wahuhi "little owl" for his youthful wisdom. He was chosen to be the next shaman of his tribe and after maturing to a young adult (200 years old) began his shamanic training unfortunately those plans were cut short when filthy dark elves attacked his village leaving him the sole survivor. He prayed to whatever spirit would listen and received a vision of a wolf's shadow stretching across the land out of the setting sun, taking this as a sign the elf headed west. Traveling North/west across frozen straights and through lands of ice and snow, deer and bears, he became wounded in a skirmish with hostile nomadic orcs and was rescued by a a passing group of traders from a whale hunting tribe heading home, home being the edge of the artic circle.

He told his rescuers of his vision and quest and was named Shadow of the wolf (Ellvar t'ey lanah Lupan) by their ice priestess Lirrina whom he became very close to, 50 years passed and the human priestess became old and died and thus the dreams returned, every night Ellvar would awake to the echoes of mournful howl it was time to move on. Traveling west he arrived in a peaceful land called Llimanuso populated with humans, dwarves and elves after spending a short time here he pressed on southwards to Serruma and eventually arrived in Ithron, around 300 years ago. and lived with the Vallerkin, learning their Longstorian ways he became a kindred to Longstor, eventually he headed north to Grimsburg in the winter of 996 and became a full priest, he then met Cornelius the alshanti who's shadow had been his guide for almost 600 years, this meeting signified the end of his long journey, yet much more was to follow for Ellvar.
he married a Longstorian high mother called Laburnum but the marriage was cut short when she was murdered at the hands of elderkin and new dawn cultists, her body was buried under a new laburnum tree at his shrine in the Soni wood, the shrine was burnt down and the grave desecrated by more new dawn cultists. a new shrine was built and the transgressors punished with the unusual aid of a local werewolf "the Linshire beast". Ellvar then restored the beast to his human form that being a disgraced Longstorian priest. During this time he was chaplain to the Longstorian church in Grimsburg, then became Lord of Golden Acres, an elven realm near kirk-leigh. Defending the elven realm from Elderkin, Axirians and alchemical plagues over the a two year period proved to be one of his biggest challenges.
The plague had devastated the elven holmes of Golden Acres, Ellvar sought to remedy the situation he entered the Meanwood confronted the leader of the elderkin there, master mages and golems to eventually consecrate the source of the disease halt its deadly progress. The ritual was successful, the ghosts of elves killed by the plague haunted this area were given peace and Ellvar had one last moment with his late wife, as her restless spirit said thank you and goodbye.
Ellvar pressed for a warrant for the arrest of those responsible but the signing of the pact and Axirian attacks prevented any such action being effected.
There were darker consequences to follow, the ancient ancestors of the darks elves. Those whom Ellvar referred to as "dark souls"  had been infected and they demanded retribution, They captured, crucified and tortured Ellvar to find out who was responsible, the shaman could not hold out against this cruelty and told them who to look for, he also explained he had stopped the disease, and had lost people under his care too, so for this, they let him live.
He managed to crawl back to the camp badly injured. Reggie Stone was the first to lend him aid although anxiously.
Captain Krieger of the Kirk-leigh militia was in over all command of the doomsday plan to use the disease and after warrants were issued he fled justice, The captain was later found, tried and found guilty of murdering 217 Golden acres elves by the archduke himself, Ellvar handed Kreiger over to the dark souls for execution on the battlefield. Ellvar never fought a single dark soul that day instead, he found many hated dark elves to kill.
It was later that night he met an elven physician/kindred of Tralda called Juniper with whom he befriended.
After being received warmly back in Golden acres he headed North to find those that had fled during the troubled times. After a year of searching he located their village and led them home. It was at this time he proposed to Juniper, who agreed to be his bride and lady of Golden Acres. After a short but happy engagement they were married by Long Tom Primate of Tralda and bless by Scout primate of Longstor as well as many other priests of differing faiths it was a greatly celebrated occasion. The second bonding ceremony was conducted by Elrinsaithoramalanthas and was an ancient elven ritual, open only to elves. Over the weekend Ellvar became a super scout and Juniper cultural advisor to the queen of Ithron. The two elves now reside in Golden Acres enjoying the peace and contentment the elven holmes have to offer...for now.
