Adudu Bindu and Ming La

**Adudu Bindu and Ming La (also known as Ming Eleval)** are a technician and an apprentice journalist respectively, who work for the renowned newspaper "Auresian Times" - owned by one Zikoranaudodim Malik. The duo worked under an infamous veteran journalist by the name "Mr Adama", which led them down the rabbit-hole of a case in Jeni Delusca, Hebor, Auresia, where they met the Zukha trio (Mah, Hum and Kash) and the Auresian cavalry officer Junko Aobashi.

## Appearance

### Adudu

Adudu is a tall and scrawny black-skinned man, with short back hair and no facial hair. He has an elongated mischievous-looking face, with glasses in front of his dark brown eyes. He usually wears a brown forward brimmed cap, beige overalls and boots with metal-plated toes. On his right hand he has an Auresian technician apparatus, which he uses for repairing, opening and sealing, as well as using it as a magical conductor for his spells. He's missing his right leg from knee-down, which he has replaced himself with a metallic prosthetic.

### Ming La

Ming La is a surprisingly tall girl, with a mixed complexion - her skin being lightly olive in colour. Her dark wavy hair is usually kept in tight braids or braid, with her wide forehead uncovered. She has wide, slightly slanted light-brown eyes. Ming La usually wears casual clothing, such as shirts, sweaters and casual suits, preferring practicality over explicit fashion.

## Personality

### Adudu

Adudu is usually chipper and straightforward, quick to say what he thinks and make light of a heavy situation. He doesn't burden himself with a high moral compass, instead preferring to act out of heart, be it for good or bad. He seldom serves as advisor or as reassurance to Ming La and his friends, as he's known to be a cool thinker and say things as they are.

During the trials of the Temple of Mockery, when Junko and Adudu were forced to face their past burdens and regrets, it was suggested Adudu had a life of relative poverty in the Auresian capital, and that he had assaulted a prostitute during a drunken outburst, an act he truly regrets to this day.

### Ming La

Ming is a well-educated, high-strung and idealistic person, daughter of a influential banker from the Auresian capital and nephew of the high ranking SIBILE officer Bashtul Eleval. She is a strong believer in the Auresian ideals of morality, freedom and justice - which is why she decided to leave the secure life of a banker working under her father and pursue a career in investigative journalism. Her optimism and dedication are infectious, staying ever brighter even in the darkest of moments. She could, however, be quickly made afraid if she gets thrown out of her element, as exemplified by her freaking out when the party was locked inside Shana's Temple of Mockery. She's also no stranger to deception and seduction when needed, though she always does so with good intentions.
Jezebel The Jade Mage

**Jezebel The Jade Mage (also known as Isabella)** is a human aspiring archmage, necromancy specialist, (presumed) Auresian government researcher and former pupil of Noerin Dekkat's Harvest Keep Academy of Magical Arts. She was the "mastermind" behind the Jeni Delusca case - the originator of the enhanced Thornborn infection known as "Project A". She is a cooky and enigmatic character, whose dedication and scientific brilliance are rivaled only by her appalling interpersonal skills and lack of social awareness.

## Appearance

Jezebel is a short and chubby woman, with pale skin, round and flat face, almond-shaped green eyes framed by thick glasses and dark brown straight hair, parted midway. She has a rather large chest as well.

Her usual attire consists of a black loose magician robe, with bright green detailing, and a comically large black witch hat. She often carries a sachet full of magical components and notes, as well her as her jade-encrusted grimoire.

## Personality

Jezebel is a strange woman, whose motivations and goals are as questionable as her sanity. She likes to act cool and professional, but is prone to show her petty and selfish side when questioned or objected. She actively manipulates people with her magic to follow her will, as exemplified by her somehow having placed a deadly curse on Jeni Delusca's Spahia Hasim-bey and controlling the entire complex through him. She's obsessed with her work, paying little to no mind to anything and anyone outside of it, though she's also shown to be self-aware enough as to be cautious and prepared for the worst. By proxy of her work, Jezebel seems to be infatuated with Aglar, having studied him intensely and tried to basically replicate him numerous times (with her Sigma specimen reaching closest to her goal).

On top of all, Jezebel seemingly lacks any morality, as seen by the fact that she has no qualms about human experimentation (having turned many people and animals into Thornborn monstrosities, including Ming La's mentor Mr Adama)., though again, it is unclear whether she even understands the moral applications of her actions.

Beside all, she's seen enjoying her interactions with the Zukha warrior Kash during their week-long travel through the Heborian steppe, even calling him her "friend".
Artonis of Yandae

> *"Yes, I knew. It had to be this way, otherwise you would have never made it past... I'm lost now, just keep moving forwards, Xi has taken her due." ~ Artonis, moments before his death*

## Artonis

### Relatives

* Lithiel of Yandae - deceased sister
* Kaerynna of Yandae - mother
* Gehronn the Daring - father (presumably deceased)

### Affiliation

* Cult of Xi (former)
* The Nameless Brotherhood

## Physical description

### Eye color

Dark green

**Artonis of Yandae** was an Elven ranger that left his home village in search of his banished sister Lithiel, getting banished himself for it. He didn't initially join the Brotherhood of the Nameless due to his major disagreements with Mikhael Strand and Senecius. However, he later managed to earn the respect of Mikhael because of his self-sacrifice in the Rotlands in the name of the Brotherhood and their temporary companions. For his bravery, he was promised a monument in the centre of Hillgrove by Mikhael.

## **Appearance**

   Artonis was a young adult Elven male, with dark blonde hair and green eyes. He had a tall and slender build, with long arms and legs. He usually wore dark green cloak with hood, leather armour, brown trousers and tall boots. His weapons consisted of his longbow and shortsword. He was usually accompanied by his white, Giant Owl familiar Twilight.

## **Personality**

Artonis was a socially awkward and naturalistic person. He was usually quiet and reserved, complete opposite to his sister Lithiel. He believed passionately in the Four and Xi and for that he was at odds with the atheistic Mikhael and Senecius. Usually, he preferred to stick to his more outgoing sister and took it as a personal duty to follow and protect her. When not with Lithiel, Artonis often liked to converse with his familiar instead.

## **Abilities**

Artonis was a woodsman with exceptional skills when it came to fighting or hunting in forests. He was skilled with all kinds of bows and swords. Preferring to fight from a distance, he was quick to support his allies with volleys of arrows, often shooting multiple at once. Artonis was always accompanied by his familiar Twilight that aided him in combat by distracting his enemies and scouting for reinforcements. Artonis didn't use magic often and when he did, it was for either healing or strengthening the party. He was keen on collecting nutritious berries for his allies.
Stillborn Mia

Mia in a battle stance.

**Stillborn Mia (or just Mia)** is a human female, whose ancestry comes from the Rune Lands, but is a citizen of the Empire of the Four. She is a warrior-priest of the Four with Ve as her patron, as well as a first generation sorcerer, blessed by Ve Himself. She is a stoic and intelligent person, with lofty aspirations and ideals, whose main concern is upholding the principles of Ve and the Four, as well as reforming and modernizing her country (the Empire) to turn it back into the great power it once was. During the Auresian War, she ventured to Auresia, alongside her mentor and teacher Phelerion and his two disciples Berentia & Verentia, as representatives of the Empire and its interests. Their goal was to ask for peace and collaboration with Auresia, though the negotiations were cut short due to a terrorist attack orchestrated by the Black Fingers.

## Appearance

Mia is an exceedingly tall and muscular woman, with swarthy skin, droopy nose and a shoulder-long black hair, with a long braid falling down her back. Her build makes her look imposing, however she is often calm, kind and reserved. She also has unusual golden eyes - a sign of Ve's blessing over her. It is unknown why and for how long, but Mia also has a prosthetic leg (from mid-thigh down) which appears to be a dwarven made.

Beside that she's often seen wearing a simple tank-top or shirt with baggy pants and short leather boots, all in earthly colours (yellow, brown, grey, etc.). She also carries a large single-bladed cutting sword and a circular shield with the symbol of the Four embedded into it to serve as magical catalyst.
Silentstep

**Silentstep** is a former rookie member of the Black Fingers and a current ally of second Brotherhood of The Nameless. He confronted the Brotherhood when they, in disguise, tried to infiltrate the Fingers as new recruits. He proved to know little of the actual agenda of the Black Fingers, just trying to survive on his own, and for that the Brotherhood, with mixed responses, decided to integrate him in their lines, promising him a better future. Silentstep however managed to exceed expectations, saving the party from certain peril, ascending his status among them for the butt of a joke to that of a respected comrade.
Rory

Luna's brother. Hates the courts and their way of thinking. Especially after being exiled for having mult-court parents.

He knows his father is of the winter court but nothing else of him yet. He is flirty and obnoxious and lives on the edge of Autumn court and the human world. He doesn't understand why Luna is so over-protective of him.
Zhep-Felkin

**Zhep-Felkin** is a healer and explorer of mixed Union and Zhuka descent. He is involved in the efforts of the Zhuka people to recover from the Union genocide. Patient, relaxed yet stern he was hired by Lina Iskaar to guide her to the Northern Village in 2025.

## Appearance

Zhep-Felkin is a man of very slightly above average height and wiry, slender build that hints at a hard, frugal way of life. His blonde hair is cut short and even and his face is long and somber, his deep-set blue eyes often carrying an accusatory look in them. His skin is a swarthy color, betraying his mixed ancestry. He is most often seen in light, yet not too decorative silken shirt and pants, paired with a striking azure-blue scarf when in city and dark brown leather armor when out on the trail, that covers all his body, alongside a bag for his potions and extracts, as he is foremost a healer. He is seldom seen without his ivory stinger knife- a fourty centimeter long blade fashioned from a stinger of one of the rare beasts and kept in a scabbard on the back of the waist. He also carries a long-barreled Auresian arcanocaster with him.

## Personality

Zhep-Felkin is a man of two worlds-being both a representative of Union civilization as well as an ally and honored friend of the Northern Zhuka tribe. He is a man who seem to be utterly devoted to his duties as a healer and educator, having a patient, relaxed and pleasant personality, which however can come off as boring or patronizing and all-in-all too serious. He dislikes unnecessary violence and prefers to use words to end conflicts, but he can be a fierce and determined fighter when pushed. Zhep often speaks with unfamiliar Zhuka terminology and can come off as mysterious, especially when dispensing moral lessons. He is deeply compassionate, taking his position as a healer very seriously and going out of his way to help any wounded or diseased beings, even those who might be considered evil. He is also stoic and determined in the face of danger, showing a stony deliberation, and not allowing his feelings to overcome his sense of reason. He does not show fear, even in retreat, waiting until the confrontation is over to let any emotions stirred up by it come up.

The Finger of Fate

**The Finger of Fate** was a powerful weapon imbued with the blessings of Oa that paladin Dustin, son of Ogust wielded during his adventures. Its godly power passed away along its user and the now ordinary blade is being carried by Lina Iskaar.

## Description

The Finger of Fate was a transforming weapon - its base shape being that of a knife - which, when activated, became a longsword made of holy light burning heavily on a strike. It was extremely deadly against the enemies of the Four and their underlings.

## History

The blade's original owner was Senecius. It is unknown where he bought it or found it. It was used by him in battle and also used to perform the Brotherhood blood oath, which Mikhael pressured Senecius into doing. Stuck in a Ravdae prison Senecius upon escaping gave the blade to an orc begging for his help in escaping as well. Due to his liking of orcs and the cheapness of the blade Senecius gave it up without much mind and quickly fled.

As a result of the flood in the city made to rescue Senecius, the prison cells which were underground were beginning to fill with water. The orc-Dustin as a result of his devotion was rewarded his freedom by the Four, when the blade transformed into a white lightsaber, with which he cut the prison bars and escaped.

The weapon was subsequenty used by Dustin , for the rest of his journey, turning its blade into light whanever Dustin ecountered foes of humanity. It slayed numerous demons, demon worshipers and struck the finishing blow to Lord Iskaar during the first battle at the Grave of Iskra.

After the death of Dustin, the weapon lost its potency, turning into ordinary dagger, and was passed down to Lina by her mother, as per the will of the warrior. It is rarely used by Lina, but is carefully kept by her as a relic.
Hillgrove

Hillgrove's location on the map.

**Hillgrove** is a relatively small Union settlement of part-town-part-military base nature, located just on the edge of the Rotlands and naturally fortified by the split of Crawler river. It is not a very popular destination, being overshadowed by the larger Lichfort. However, it has played a major role in the "Quest of Thressos" narrative, being the de facto home of Mikhael Strand, Johnnyn Kart, Theodore Ashwood and Lukkas Gale. It is currently under the rule of Hillgrove's House Gale.

## Description

Hillgrove is a town with the main purpose of being a fortification from orc and beastmen attacks coming from the Rotlands. It is situated on hills, thus the name, and has plenty of both flora and fauna surrounding it. Hillgrove is also rich on water, being situated in a humid region.

The town of Hillgrove is a standard fortified settlement, surrounded by massive wooden outer walls, stone inner walls and a moat. It has mainly small-to-medium houses made of wood and stone, an open marketplace, rows of military barracks and a main square in front of Everhall - HIllgrove's lord's fort and residence.

## Notable people from Hillgrove

Matilda
Junko Aobashi

**Junko Aobashi** (nee Sawakawa) is an Auresian lower-ranked cavalry officer of Heborian descent who was involved in the Jeni Delusca incident. Fiery, energetic and passionate, she isn't a staunch idealist, but has a strong sense of right and wrong.

## Appearance

Junko is a woman of middling height and slender, athletic build. Her straight black hair is cropped at neck-length and her face is oval and slightly angular with thin lips and a delicate nose. Her heritage shows in her narrow almond-shaped eyes, pale complexion and very dark eyes and hair. She is usually seen in the Auresian cavalry officer uniform which consists of a bronze-tinged cuirass, shoulder guards, vambraces, tassets and joint protection made from a synthetic material as strong as the more common leather armor. She also wears a helmet with a one-way transparent visor at times - also military issue, as well as standard-issue weaponry- a repeating short arcanocaster, hand-caster, saber and later on-the magical rai-ha dagger inherited from her deceased grandfather Yoritomo.

## Personality

Junko is a woman of simplicity, serving Auresia for mostly practical reasons, and seeing Auresian civilization as enriching to her homeland. She is passionate, lively and friendly, often initiating conversation or even negotiations. Regardless she is not unfamiliar with violence and is more than capable of applying it, when the situation necessiates it. Her personality can best be described as simplistic-elevating family, tribe and the common good, above any lofty ideals or philosophic postulations, seeing most of that as pretentious nonsense. Despite having several children from her husband Kuchiki, it is implied she's somewhat distant from them. Junko also seems split between her allegiance to Auresia and her Heborian heritage-as some Heborians consider rebellion against Auresian presence and occupation the only proper thing a Heborian can do.
Senecius' Burned Bow

**Senecius' Burned Bow** was the favourite weapon of the drifter Senecius and, alongside his other equipment, was an extreme efficient weapon. Its current whereabouts are unknown, as it was not explained what happened with Senecius' body after his death.

## Description

Senecius' Burned Bow looked like a heavily damaged bow, with burn marks and signs of heavy wear, but was more than sturdy enough for its job. It had the ability to turn any arrow it fired into a blazing bolt, as well as increase the user's accuracy.
The Red Scorpions

**The Red Scorpions** are a pirate group and rebel organization operating in the continent of Gedo and its surrounding islands. Composed primarily of sand elves, its main objective seems to be the liberation of the elves from Auresian rule. Its leader is the enigmatic sorcerer Litadril, the Bloodied Stinger.
Grevant The Scholar

**Grevant** is a elderly man that is associated with Noerin Dekatt and through him - with The Nameless Brotherhood. He is a wizard-scholar in Magistris that specialized in the School of Abjuration. He used to study together with Noerin back in the magical academy. Grevant briefly assisted the Brotherhood in their efforts to save Gladys and Noerin from the mysterious third party mending with the politics of the Union, later agreeing with their values and promising to assists them by rallying up the Magistris' wizard communities.

## **Appearance**

Grevant The Scholar is a 50-something old Human male, with short greying hair and a constant stern expression. He usually wears dark and long robes and a large walking stick. He has a visible limp on his left leg.

## **Personality and Traits**

Grevant is a loyal supporter of the Union's ideals and laws, but is shown to doubt the current government's policies and ambitions, holding suspicions toward Lord Ilyan Iskaar in particular. He strives to do the correct thing and when faced with an obvious injustice he readily strives to correct it.
Houses

**Houses** are dynastic families that hold land, vast wealth or aristocratic power. They are implied to be mostly irrelevant in the Holy Empire of the Four, where dynasties are not as highly regarded in favor of piety. In the Union of the Free Lordships and the Kingdom of Auresia however, members of such houses are seen as part of high society and are very well regarded.

## **Houses in the Union**

New houses in the Union are mainly formed around land ownership and possession of vast quantities of wealth, there are however ancient houses with a long dynastic history of aristocrats that are shown to be better regarded and more often placed in positions of power.

A list of known Union houses follows below:
Opinor Corydon

> *"Places like this usually have gold. Hey you, got any gold around here?"*
> *~*Opinor to Vereeni
>
>

**Opinor Corydon** is a human wizard that specializes in protective magic, a promising protege of Mirinin and later-on an important member of The Brotherhood of The Nameless. He developed an especially close camaraderie with Mikhael Strand and the False God Stillen, the latter of which he travelled around Thressos with. After the defeat of Ilyan Iskaar, he joined Gladys and Johnnyn Kart on their journey of discovering more about the Four and the Void.

## **Appearance**

Opinor is an average-to-slim build man, with dark hair and light skin. He has a missing left arm from the elbow down, the bone of which he uses as a magical catalyst. He wore a distinct tall, wide-brimmed hat, which he insisted was necessary for every respectable wizard.

## **Personality and Traits**

Like most wizards, Opinor often comes off as socially inept, blunt and aloof. He was also shown to be a wayward, prone to going off on his own and chasing his own interest, as well as frequently commenting on the abysmal size of his male member. He is also very pragmatic, but obsessed with acquiring gold and magical books. Despite all that, Opinor is a compassionate and reliable ally, loyal to his cause and friends when it really matters.
Katrine Ghanem

**Katrine Ghanem** is a human female of Auresian origin working for SIBILE (The Sultan's Intelligence Bureau for Internal Law Enforcement). She is the leader of an M.S.S (Mobile Security Squad) that specializes in the prevention of unlawful manufacturing, distribution and usage of magic items. She was tasked unexpectedly to escort important Imperial diplomats back to their home country by her superior officer Bashtul Eleval, following the Portis Supelus Attack. A lich from Thressos and its minions successfully ambushed the ship convoys she was tasked to protect, killing everyone other than her, Ahmed (a member of her squad) and the imperials, all of which she successfully evacuated on a lifeboat.
Brown Tom

> *"After this we'll be heroes! They'll probably raise a couple statues of us, maybe write a song or two!" ~ Brown Tom*
>
>

**Brown Tom** was a mercenary warrior and one of company captains for the Keen Lances that accompanied the Nameless Brotherhood on their campaign in the Rotlands. He mysteriously disappeared in the labyrinth of Strifort Gart, leaving only his severed hands behind. Mikhael, in his admiration, promised a monument in his honour in the centre of Hillgrove.

Auresian War plot

* Unknown

**The Black Fingers** (also known as **The Burned Fingers**) are an Empire-based terrorist organization whose goals were (during the events of the Void Crisis) to abolish order in the Empire of the Four and remove the cult in the Four. Its leader was known as Baptiste and parallel to being a terrorist organization, it was also an unofficial cult of the False Goddess Shayla. They group resorted to extreme measures of operating, no strangers to executions, rape and public bombing.

## Auresian War

Around 2024 the organization was restored by Elias and Lina Iskaar. Lina as the daughter of Nikolas Bozscamna and Elias claiming to be the only son of Baptiste, the two had signifact influence over the heirs of other former members of the organizations. Thanks to Elias' charisma they also had many new members rolling in to join the organization. The worship of the false goddess Shayla was also renewed, along with other false gods like Glaurum, Lissandra and Metaron. Lina and Elias named the organization The Legacy of the Black Fingers and had equal roles in its leadership. Eventually Lina noticed that her influence among the other members became smaller and smaller compared to the one Elias had. Although the original idea of the organization was to weaken the Empire, Elias started to priorotize other goals instead. He constantly asked Lina about confidential Union information as she was the heir to the Iskaar bloodline. She told him many Union secrets and eventually without her knowledge there was an attack on a meeting of prominent Union lords organized by Elias. When she found out she realized she was manipulated and decided to leave the organization. Thus Elias became the only leader. Other subsequent actions organized by the Black Fingers were the assasination attempt on Teena Iskaar, the infiltration of the Brotherhood and the supposed influence over the Auresian government thus triggering the invasion against the Union.
Stillen

*"See, I told ya not to bother with that stupid thing, it's already gone, tryin to meddle only makes it worse. I tried to warn ya, but ya didn't listen \* sigh\* so typical. Anyway, as I already said - I'm cursed, so don't do that again or you're like to lose more than a sack o'gold!" ~ Stillen, referring to Senecius' pouch of coins being lost*

**Stillen, the Forgotten Lord** is a false god taking the shape of an elderly human male. He is one of the few false gods who have not been shown to be openly malicious to humanity and was instrumental in helping the Nameless Brotherhood meet with their patron Mirinin.

## **Description**

Stillen is a false god, who appears as a very old, wrinkled and mildly disfigured human male wearing torn rags and missing several teeth. He is described as particularly unattractive and balding, while also appearing quite fragile in his stance and figure, regardless of that not being the case in actuality.
Shayla

**Shayla** (going by many other names) is a false god associated with misfortune and bad luck. She is the patron god of the Black Fingers

## **Appearance**

Shayla's true appearance is unknown and apparently is a well kept secret among her followers. Imagery of multiple open eyes is associated with her.
In her only known physical appearance she appeared as an artifact that had taken the shape of a sleek black arm attached to Baptiste's body replacing his arm.
Shana, a mysterious red-haired woman that appeared to and followed the Maiden of Thorns' Crew throughout Auresia, is possibly related to **Shayla**. Lina Iskaar and Theodore Ashwood theorized that Shana's strange abilities and uncharacteristic knowledge could suggest that she even is the false goddess herself.

## **Personality**

Shayla's personality has been scarcely explored, however given the directions she had given her followers it can be inferred that she is secretive and scheming. It can also be assumed that she was forward-thinking, as she was seemingly one of the few false gods that had been setting into motion plans and contingencies before regaining most of her power.

## **Powers and Abilities**

While Shayla was never shown fighting herself, she was able to grant her followers, and more specifically Baptiste, several abilities. Powers granted by her related to chance and luck.

### Detection Shield

A special protective barrier guarded the Black Fingers' secret hideout. It protected them from the agents of the Imperial army that were sent to look for them and was briefly encountered by Gladys.
The field would damage anyone that got too close without authorization by a string of accidents. It also made it difficult to remember the location of the hideout's entrance.

### Causal Teleportation

Baptiste was able to use Beshaba's artifact to move by dragging his body through time to a more advantageous location. This allowed him to move through small openings and appeared as him walking through the air while leaving afterimages and even passing through walls.

### Chance Manipulation

Baptiste had the power to cause his enemies to miss strikes on him they would have otherwise landed by making events of chance happen around him and his opponents that obstructed their blows. He could also do the reverse, inflicting his foes with misfortune that allowed his attacks to land.

## **History**

### Background

Shayla's origin is unknown, though it is likely she took part in The War of the False Gods and attained her false god status at this time.

### Emilbel Arc

Shayla is first mentioned when the Second Nameless Brotherhood make their way to Emilbel where it is revealed that the Black Fingers are in possession of her artifact. It has been grafted to Baptiste's left arm and gives him several powerful abilities. After the attack of several of the other false gods on the city, Baptiste and the brotherhood members make an escape from the city but are cut off and attacked by Lysandra. She is able to chase down and pin Baptiste and proceeds to rip him in half and extract his arm.
Lina Iskaar

LIna, after covering up her Void tattoos and eye.

*"I am disgusted from you now... I will not chase you anymore*." - Lina to Elias after he threatens to kill Lukas' and Arlik's family along with her mother if she doesn't stop pursuing him"

**Lina Iskaar** is a high noble, daughter of Lady Teena Iskaar and the imperial outlaw Nicholas Boszcamna, as well as future heir of House Iskaar. From infancy Lina played a key part in her grandfather's ritual to bring back the Shadows of the Horizon into the physical world. 20 years later she took part in the reconstruction of the Black Fingers, an anti-Imperial terrorist organization, but due to her partner's betrayal, she escaped to Auresia by serving as a chief physician on the "Goldcrusher", a ship tasked with exploring the Auresian territories and conducting espionage for the Union. As retribution for her past actions, she took the new objective of trying to find a cure for the Thornborn disease in the forbidden lands of this unexplored territory. During her journey she found that the Black Fingers have found their way in Auresia, just like herself, seeming to brew a far more sinister plan than she could imagine.

## Appearance

Lina is a human female from Union origin. She has fair skin, tall stature and relatively athletic body. She has straight black hair, thick lips and a snub nose. Her most discernible features are on her face. On the left side of her face she has a scar stretching across from her temple to her cheek, which she recieved during the Battle at the Grave of Iskra, still as an infant. Her left eye is green, right-entirely red with the right side of her face entirely covered by Void tattoos, all caused by the Void ritual that Lord Iskaar used her for. She almost always uses make-up to cover her face tattoos and regularly walks with a black eyepatch on her right eye, mainly to keep her identity hidden.

In the start of her journey to Auresia Lina wore black robes with scale mail armor underneath them along with a plague mask in the shape of a raven skull. After her identity on the ship was uncovered she stopped wearing the mask. On her belt there are many flasks and medical utensils that she uses to give immediate medical help, along with a whip and the knife "The Finger of Fate". On her neck there is also an amulet in the shape of a red spear, the holy symbol of Glaurum, which she uses as a catalyst for her god-given magic.
The Sea Dogs

The Sea Dogs is a criminal organization whose main occupation is piracy and smuggling of goods across the Auresian continents. Most members are dogpeople. The leader of the organization is Wolfram the Brown Wolf. Other prominent members are Jon the Chihuahua and the greatly feared Sharoh - the Terror of the Western Sea.
Matilda

Matilda in her human form

The first time she was encountered she wore the simple clothes of a courtesan , while in the second encounter she sported a rather extravagant yet elegant dark blue attire made of thin material.
A.I.D.A

**Analogous Interactive Data Analyser** or **A.I.D.A.** is a type of automaton made by Noerin Dekatt during his refuge in the Rune Lands. It serves the function of analysing a creature's behaviour and abilities, proving to be a very useful tool in battle.

## Description and Properties

A.I.D.A. is a white cube-shaped piece of metal, with blue runes and crystals on its top and bottom. It has a monotonous and unnatural way of delivering information. When activated, it has the ability to hoover around its user and emit faint blue light.

The properties of A.I.D.A. are few, and they are as follows:

- record data on creatures in its memory storage, cataloguing them by type;

- analyse a creature's behaviour and communicate its physical or mental weakness.

Noerin has admitted on A.I.D.A**.** being just the first version from a potential automaton line he could eventually produce in order to aid each of the Brotherhood's top members, but whether he actually did so is currently unknown.
Shade of Annihilation

**Shade of Annihilation** (also known as **Dlob**) is an independent arch-mage of presumed Union origin, specializing in necromancy and Void researching. He resided in Harvest Keep ever since it was depopulated, being guarded by paid mercenaries and undead servants. Alongside Noerin Dekatt, he researched the Void and ways to travel through it, creating the Void portal (which was later stolen by Ilyan Iskaar's men and used to achieve his goals). Dlob was also known as a peer and rival of Mirinin.
Teena Iskaar

Teena Iskaar, along with the rest of the Nameless Brotherhood

**Lady Teena of House Iskaar** is a female human noble, daughter of Lord Ilyan Iskaar and his unnamed wife, mother of Lina Iskaar. She encountered the first group of the Brotherhood of the Nameless (Mikhael Strand, Senecius, Lithiel and Hammer) while travelling. She became a short-timed companion, forming friendship with Lithiel and getting romantically involved with Senecius, all the while Mikhael and Hammer remained neutral and wary until her departure. She met the group (now consisting of Gladys, Dustin and Shia) for a second time, accompanied by Sir Igel and his men while in disguise and became an official member until a head wound temporary put her in a vegetative state. It was during the third meeting that she became an active member and ally of the Brotherhood.

## **Appearance**

Teena is a human female in her early twenties. She has curly dark hair and blue eyes. Later on, when her father discovers her pregnancy and performs an unspecified ritual on her and her child, later named Lina, Teena receives permanent otherworldly words and markings all over her body. Her physical build is slim and fit, with average height and weight.

Teena usually wears dark clothes and cloaks of the black and purple hues, as well as supplementary hood and scarf when she hides her markings.

When adventuring, she usually carries a backpack on her, as well as a rapier and daggers.

## **Personality and traits**

Teena Iskaar is originally an outgoing, independent and primarily self-serving person, often seen as spoiled due to her social status. She disliked living in the Iskaar family castle and wanted to experience adventure on her own.

After the rituals, she became more sober, replacing her easygoing attitude with cation and stoicism, bordering with plain unfriendliness and suspicion. She held hatred for traitors (such as Shia, whom Teena believed was the cause of her head would and subsequent brain damage) and unsavoury people, but later came to trust and respect the different members of the Brotherhood, especially Dustin, whom Noerin had to sacrifice in order to save Teena's and her baby's lives, a decision seemingly also taken by the paladin, since he had placed his sacred blade "The Finger of Fate" next to the child with his last breath.

## **Abilities**

Teena is skilled in swordsmanship as well as in using bows and crossbows. She preferred striking from the shadows with swift and deadly moves. The twisted speech of the thieves is also known to her, as well as working with their tools of trade.

She also dabbled in magic, knowing few but deadly spells that aided her in combat.

Due to her connection with the Void, Teena also is able to withstand the destructive pressure inside it, as if she was bearing a False God artifact. Gladys could also detect her presence and later that of her child as that of otherworldly creatures, which arguably made her a magnet of sorts for the Shadows of The Horizon and the Void spawns.
Ytril

**Ytril** is a Black-Horned-One male that briefly worked with the Nameless Brotherhood during the Void Crisis and fought against Lord Ilyan Iskaar. He has, so far, been the only member of his race to be featured. He is easily distinguished by his odd speaking style, striking appearance, eccentric character and propensity for making unconventional decisions.

## **Appearance**

Ytril is a member of the race of the Black-Horned-Ones and his appearance is very striking because of this. He has jet-black skin, small horns on the uppermost part of his forehead, dark blue lips, pointy ears similar to those of elf and very lightly coloured eyes with no pupils or irises. He is phenomenally short in stature, but is of strong build and has great endurance. He most often wears a black hooded cloak and a brown belt.

## **Personality and traits**

The Black-Horned-One has a very peculiar personality, often sounding nonchalant and vaguely interested even in the most dangerous of situations. He is honest and straightforward, avoiding flowery words and preferring to-the-point conversations. He is seen having the odd passion for climbing, as well as collecting and producing maps. Ytril also thinks that carrying the mummified head of his former master is something normal, having it presented on multiple occasions, with and without context.

## **History**

### Early life

Little is known of the history of Ytril. He is from the Midsea Civilizations, part of a weaponized slave race by the Dwarves. It is unknown what lead to the death of his owner and his arrival in Thressos, but at some point he was taken into by Shade of Annihilation, assisting him as part-friend-part-servant.

### After the events of the campaign

Not much is known of Ytril's whereabouts after the resolution of the Void Crisis. After Dustin's funeral, he said he'd keep on his word and try to free his people, presumably going back home and joining the rebellion there.
House Iskaar

House Iskaar's sigil.

**House Iskaar**, or **The Great House of Iskaar**, is one of the Three Great Houses of the Union - mythologized as descendants of Union's patron goddess Iskra. They are based in Magistris but have many mansions and castles around the Union. They are directly responsible for the founding of the Union and, much later in history, for the "Void crisis" incident of 2005. Their current head is Lady Teena Iskaar, descended from the late Lord Ilyan Iskaar and his lady.

## History

House Iskaar is believed to be one of the founding houses of the Union, with it tracing its origin directly to Iskra herself. In the Union's early years it rose to prominence along with its sister houses House Hung and House Gornik, though it is disputed when these 3 houses split off and which the original lineage is. Around the year 2005 it was regarded as the most powerful of the great houses and after the kidnapping and murder of several of the

Hillgrove's House Gale

The sigil of Hillgrove's Gales.

**Hillgrove's House Gale** is an offshoot of House Gale. It was founded in 2005 by Lord Martin Gale after an ownership dispute regarding the city of Hillgrove. It was preceded by Johnnyn Kart's mercenary company - The Keen Lances and House Ashwood.

## **Ancestral Keep**

Hillgrove Gales took after the former lords of the small city - the Ashwoods - who didn't leave an inheritor (at least so was presumed as no one claimed ownership of the land). The fortress of Hillgrove is called Everhall and is located at the heart of the settlement.

Gurumush

*"This isn't like anything I've seen before, this creature is ancient and powerful - don't you realize what this means!?" - Mikhael Strand when describing the corpse of Gurumush*

**Gurumush, the Lord of Savagery** was a False God encountered by the Nameless Brotherhood during their travels and whose artifact was later collected by them. He never appeared directly having been defeated in battle earlier.

## Appearance

The Lord of Savagery was a large, heavily muslced humanoid covered with bristling fur and a squat face, with a pair of curved horns on his head. He was about four meters or so tall.

## History

### Ancient times

During the War of the Damned Gurumush acquired power from the Void to oppose the Four and was later punished for his rebellion and cursed to preside over the domain of Savagery, and supposedly banished and locked away somewhere.

### "Induction" Arc

He was sought out and defeated in battle by a household knight of house Poll, killing the knight in the process. His artifact was devoured by a psychic snake which was turned by it into a Snake-dragon using the power of the artifact to control a group of goblins and make them do its bidding. It was defeated by Mikhael Strand ,Senecius of Striecht and Lithiel of Yandae in battle and the artifact stolen. Then the artifact was used by Grindel to again acquire vast power. The artifact was then sealed by Mirinin.

### "Finding Edith" Arc

With the help of the book ''War of the Damned'' Mikhael Strand discovered that there existed a False God by the name of Gurumush.

### "Emilbell'' Arc

The artifact of this False God was acquired by the Nameless Brotherhood and given by them for safekeeping to the Shade of Annihilation in Harvest Keep.

### Final Arcs

The artifact of Gurumush was successfully hidden away by The Shade of Annihilation and brought along with him to Magistris, where, after he was killed by Streno, it was used to revive him. The artifact was eventually destroyed by The Shade in a suicide attack against the Void Shard in Bryaglee Castle, radiating its energy and imbuing those around the explosion with it, which permitted them safe passage through the Abyss.
Elias

**Elias** is the founder and supposed leader of the newly reformed Black Fingers organization. Although still a figure shrouded in mystery, he is suspected to serve the false goddess Shayla, whose nefarious plans he aims to achieve. He can be associated with the attempt to murder the head of House Iskaar - Lady Teena and the terrorist attack on a council meeting of prominent Union nobles. It is also known he has expanded the organization to other countries, like Auresia, and made a huge connection of spies. Most of the information about him comes from Lina Iskaar.

## Appearance

Elias is a human male, seeming to be somewhere around twenty years old. Much similar to the preceding leader of the Black Fingers he has an appearance which is hardly unique and has little to non discernible features. Middle of stature, dark brown hair with brown eyes and perfectly symmetrical face he looks like an average boy of his age, always wearing everything according to the current fashion trend, rather then following a certain personal taste in clothing, He looks fit, but not muscular and his body proportions make clothes look good on him. He also keeps a perfectly good hygiene and tends to smell quite nice for people around him. His haircut like anything else about him is perfectly maintained and according to the current trend, creating the impression he visits the barber every morning. His plainness emits a certain aura of comfort and makes him easily likeable to people of all classes and backgrounds as witnessed by Lina.

## Abilities

### Human Possession

Although seen only once it can be assumed that Elias has the ability to remotely possess other conscious creatures, speaking through them and controlling their bodies. He can not only illusory change the appearance of the creatures, but also cast spells through them even if they aren't spellcasters.
