 Name: Matilda LidgettGeneral: Matilda 14 years old a living with her two parents Cathrine and Nim as well as her older brother Ezra (17). Nim is the proud owner of a successful shop that specializes in mechanical repairs but does the occasional special order job. His wife and children help with both the business-end and the work while he is getting parts or particularly busy. While the Lidgett line has resided in Bellabost since before the empire, the only extended family still living in the town is that of Cathrine's sister, Sarah Lorraine.Appearance: Matilda, standing at 4' 11", has long, dark, brown hair that is naturally frizzy with loose curls, although the length has likely loosened them. Her dark brown eyes and medium-fair skin tone offer conflicting images of plain peasantry and lack of long hours outside. Her round eyes are rarely sheltered by her eyelids, causing an appearance of sleepiness, condensation, squinting or inattentiveness. In truth, she just naturally holds her lids as so, and has no idea that doing so enables her to look a tad more mature than her dark doll-like eyes would otherwise suggest. A small nose paired with tight lips again conflicts the images of youth and age. Her teeth already have a noticable tint of yellow, but nothing beyond the expected for the time period, class and age; however, if one was particularly observant one may notice that just to the right of her two top, front teeth, a tooth has a chip taking away a corner of the tooth.
A rounded chin notes a less than harsh bone structure, not well hidden by her body from lack of over indulgence in food. Instead, a simple dress does the deed, with the exception of the relatively loose bodice (ie not organ crushing) that accentuates a still-developing bust and holds the waist enough to attempt to widen the hips of a rather straight-line torso. Her hands are worn, often a bit dirty, with trimmed nails and dirt under them; the skin is coarse from work and play, but not rough like sandpaper as her father's are. Completing this description are worn and unwashed black boots that lace up to the 3/4ths mark on her calves, a bit big but almost grown into.About: Matilda took to her father's work at an early age. It isn't known if it was time with Nim or the activity itself but in addition to primary school she studied how things worked, by books and hand. As working class Matilda never went to finishing school, but learned the basics of reading, writing, math and history. When her few years of schooling were over, she kept busy at the shop and by building her own small projects; her parents encouraged learning in both children.
Now at marrying age, her parents are looking to marry her off but worry about her lack of interest. At the same time, her brother is going to leave for the university, in a city a couple days journey away, in the coming months having been recommended for a scholarship and will work there to cover the rest. The parents worry that the empire may one day take notice of the skilled children; although it is merely skill and not intellect, the empire has been known to pay attention for certain abilities and may make mistakes.
Matilda on occasion will look after the shop alone. She is used to not being seen as good enough to handle intake, and on occasion, when alone, will forgo a dress in exchange of a jumpsuit to work on repairs.

 Name: Lucian AddleGeneral: Lucian is a loner. He does not usually interact with others but if he does, it will be because he finds that person interesting or he has a grudge against them. He is an exceptional hand-to-hand combat fighter.About: Lucian was born in Ballabost but was thrown into the forest to die when his wings sprouted. He was taken in by one of the creatures in the forest who recently had kids and had one of them die. He was raised by that creature to be strong and cunning, until he was ten years old, when he was almost killed by another. After that, he became just another creature in the forest. He preyed upon those that came in takeing the clothes of those he killed and useing them as his own. He was mostley interested in there machines and so sought out more humans in the forest. When he turned eighteen he decided to go to Bellabost and find out more about the machines of the humans.

 Name: Seth WrayBurn ( Neila Casey )Title: Lieutenant Colonel ( 04 Company)Age: 24Bio: Seth Wrayburn is a high ranking officer, having served for a little more than eight years in the military. He has shown that he has a vast amount of knowledge in many fields. Math, writing and reading in multiple languages, history and culture, as well has a personal bestiary of numerous creatures, that with a glimpse shows he's also good at drawing. But it is his ability to fight and overcome just about any type of opponent whether man or beast, an excellent swordsman and marksman, with hand to hand combat to boot, as well as being an excellent strategic makes him a noteable adversary on the field.
But Seth Wrayburn is merely a legendary man that exists on paper.
The woman behind the Lieutenant Colonel is an Irish -Celtic descendant named Neila Casey. Neila has lived most of her life raising herself, but if with some help. Neila was born on a farm far from the urban center of Bellabost, Neila's mother had died shortly after giving birth. But Neila's heart had failed her tiny body, mourning the loss of his family, her father had summoned an old fearie friend, and had asked of her to grant his daughter her heart. The fearie had agreed, under certain circumstances...
Her father had also been a military officer, which with all his stories had fascinated young Neila as a girl, Mr. Casey had would aslo bring books of all sort and teach his daughter to read and write, and after noticing her artistic talents would buy her pens, pencils, sketchbooks, and notebooks of all sort, but while he was away on duty Neila would go off and sectretly train herself in the multiple arts of combat.
But one day Her father came home injured he had also been discharged, Neila was ten years old... After that her father had been growing weaker, finding it of much trouble to assist in any daily chores, much less tending to the small farm they had. Mr. Casey truly and dearly loved Neila his daughter and didn't want to leave her, but the Fearie had come back to claim her end of the bargain, at this he shook his head, and pleaded with the fearie but she would insist that her heart be given back to her. At this Mr.Casey thought over, he had been feeling he was more of a weight on his child than anything at all, he refused to let the Fearie take her heart back, but made an offer. For the fearie to let Neila live a little longer, she could take his life, he was willing to give it up. The fearie was hesitant but acquiesced.
And thus Neila was able to keep her fearie heart, a heart strong and healthy enough to give her more of a better physique than other children, to be able to run faster and for longer, as well as being a human she had a bit more stregnth than average.
After turning fourteen Neila had been considering leaving the farm and joinging the military tired of mourning for her father and tending the farm. She manage to sell the land, and buy herself and modest house right on the edge of town. Learning that women weren't allowed in the military she was still determined, even knowing the consequences if she were discovered. She cut her hair, talked deeper and deeper and then softer to make her voice more believable, had excersized her body until she built it to a rather unattractive- if simply to men that is- more androgynous shape.
Her father before her had many connections which she put to use and also made her own through favors and such, and managed to acquire false yet authentically made documents under the name of "Seth Wrayburn" and with that applied for the military. For her physics exam she had a friend of hers help her as well. Most of these friends are actually against the empire, she herself is not fond of it but disguises it and gets by, so long she gets paid. And with that eight years flew by, and Seth Wrayburn had become a Lieutenant Colonel. Even to this day she continues to act as a man, but once she gets home and takes off the uniform she is back to being Neila Casey.Appearance: Seth Wrayburn (Neila Casey) is fair-skinned and has auburn to brown colored hair, with green eyes, that can shift from a vibrant emerald to a light jade color with the lighting, weather, and emotions. Stands at a fair 5"7 with a lean and built stature that allows for great flexibility and speed. When in uniform, Seth is accessorized with his ranking officer's belt yielding a Gothic- hilted infantry Shortsword at his left hip, and a Lancaster Pistol holstered at his right, along with his badges. Personality: Seth Wrayburn is a cool and collected man that is almost always formal. He can be a charmer with the ladies, though has never showed a preference for any one particular girl. When on the job, Seth is completely focused and has little tolerance for any out of order behavior. It is a rare but fortunate chance to go out with the Lieutenant Colonel for a drink or a feast, in which he is not as strict and is more hearty and miraculously friendly to others, treating others well, but no matter what he always stands for what is right and defends the innocent from maltreatment, and will correct other soldiers, guards, and officers who abuse their authority.
Neila Casey can be a shy yet friendly and gentle soul, but for those who know her enough will find her to have a strong heart and will, she can be hardy and determined to get things done, unafraid to herself a little dirty at all unlike most girls. She is a clever thing, knowing multitudes of subjects, and for not having gone to a formal school at that. But Neila is careful as well, she understands if she allows for her tongue to slip she could very well blow her own cover. Some adults can find her a bit odd, but children enjoy her company, especially for her storytellings of fairytales and war heroes.Other: For having a faerie's heart and a bloodline of those connected to the Fae, Neila has been able to see the fae and be able to communicate with them for her entire life, and understands their behaviors and ways. She is also capable of identifying other beings, by their scents and auras, and is the only being capable and daring enough that can walk into the territory that is the forest of the Fearie's. She also carries the scent of that forest and this helps mask her scent to a majority of other creatures those being able to sniff her out tending to be of nature/plant elements.

Name | Geoff Grendresmey III
Rank in Military | Captain - High Statue
Armory / Combat Form |
Geoff weilds a serioes of Gas-based firearms. At any time, He carries Four different sets of handgun sized apparatus's, Carried in a special holster against his chest.
P - Gas : P - gas is simply a burst of highly pressurized air, shot from the gun, and through barrel weaving, forms about a four foot blast of super dense and heated oxygen. This blast is shaped in the diameter of the barrel of the weapon, and will stay active for exactly 4 seconds.
The pressurized blast has been calculated to be as powerful enough as to cut sixteen inches in hardened glass.
A - Gas : A - gas is a nervous infiltrating gas designed to slow the reaction time of the affected target. This will make it appear to the target as if time has sped up around tem, as all major functions of the body slow down, from heart rate, breathing, nervous input and output, and other various functions. This gas will stay in the blood for about twenty minutes [ 12 posts ] before it metabolizes, and the effects waver away. This is shot in a twelve foot cone, originating from the barrel. The gas will stay in the air for a post and a half.
Sidenote : as a result of the slowing method, multiple blasts of this gas will become fatal.
D - Gas : Another Nerve Gas, D - gas will increase the sensitivity of the nervous system, exclusively to the sensation of pain and pleasure. This will only occur in the musculature system of the body, not extending to such organs as the brain and other internal organs. This gas will last for a max of two hours in the affected's body. This gas is shot in a tweve foot conic blast, and will stay in the air for half a post.
X - Gas : X - gas is a combustible gas, designed to cause a massive explosion. This gas is similar to butane gas, abliet heavier in mass to ensure that it can stay in the air long enough for detonation. So much as a spark will cause a twenty foot by fifteen foot explosion. X - Gas is shot in a ten foot conic shape, and will expand to cover a five by ten area, in a rougly circular shape. X - gas will stay in it's alloted area for about 6 posts.
Geoff also weilds a two foot, thin blade. This blade is heavy duty, with a red oak handle. This blade is hidden in a simple leather sheath on Geoff's left thigh. Geof has been shown to weild this thin blade with evident enough skill to parry and fight back against a greatsword sized blade, weilded by an expert of the greatsword. Many consider Geoff to be a master of small bladed objects, while avoiding the blades larger then three feet.
Geoff also shows evident skill in a jeet kun do type hand to hand combat. While not a master, Geoff is somewhat skilled in the art.
Other Facts | Wears Gasmask obviously. His lungs were burned as a child, forcing him to wear the gasmask. From this, Geof decided
