User: Ty Gwynnia
Name: Elistral Faestra
Side: Good
Age: Appears to be 20, but her true age is still unknown, and is atleast over 250 years
Gender: Girl
Race: Elf/Demigod
Bio: Mysterious and insightful, Elistral often talks in ominous ways. She is very kind once you get to know her well, which seems to be increasingly. Crossing her path is not advised, she is a fairly patient person, but she has an explosive temper.
History/Life: Years ago, Elistral traveled the land, helping travelers or others. She came to the town of Salim over 10 years ago when she heard of it being plagued by some evil force. She soon knew them as the Ravagers, and she formed a group called the Protectors to keep the townsfolk safe. As leader, she and the group kept the town relatively safe until a man known as Strider appeared, and soon another named Mal instructed it to be attacked. Salim was destroyed, and Strider was killed, then she found out she was a demigod. After many events, the world was turned into a barren wasteland by Mal, and Strider reappeared later, alive. She fought with Crow, then Mal, accepting her heritage when Mal told her the truth of her mother's death. Strider soon defeated Mal, then killing himself so he could be in peace, and the world then gained back what had perished, friends and foes alike, and terrain. She thought Strider had died, but he came back with her mother, now mortal, soon leaving into a retirement. She oversaw Salim's rebuilding, traveling to other towns as a bard to make sure all was well, and to Mal's old palace, now Jake's library. Now, as she hears the rumors that have been going around, she fears for the small world she calls home, hopes her father doesn't get involved so he can live the rest of his days out in peace, and is ready to defend it to the death.

Side: Neutral
Age: Look 25 or 26, but he's actually forgotten how old he is
Gender: Boy
Race: Not human, might be revealed later
Bio: Constantly changing. Overall, he is cocky, kind, funny, mysterious, odd, and random. He can be absentminded or distant, and isn't caught off guard many times. He rarely shows his temper, but when he does, can be very bloodthirsty.
History/Life: Fenrir's past isn't very notable. He popped up from time to time 10 years ago after Salim was destroyed, offering advice or hints to both Jake and Mal. He follows Fate's orders, but after the world was refreshed, he was granted some freedom by Strider. He went off to where he always goes in his free time, to have as long a vacation he is allowed. He won't appear much unless needed to, or if someone asks for his assistance/company. Or when he feels like it.

Name: Rore Nehire
Side: Good
Age: 34
Gender: Boy
Race: Human
Bio: Kind and caring. Often quiet when not talking. He's insightful and has a strong sense of honor.
History/Life: Rore used to be a knight, along with his best friend Gorash. He met his wife, Ellen, while in service of a kind king. Soon, he was disgusted at what his king was demanding of the knights and soldiers. He fled with Ellen to Salim, leaving his best friend behind with good reasons. He soon had a daughter, Maria. 10 years ago, he feared he'd lost his family, but they were fine when the world came back. He now lives in Salim, concerned about how his best friend is faring in the kingdom he left, as he's heard nothing from him for over 15 years.

User: Ty Gwynnia
Name: Crow (Daniel Barthel)
Side: Evil
Age: 43, but is still young due to his demon heritage
Gender: Boy
Race: Demon, with a human appearance
Bio: Calm demeanor but underneath has an arrogant and cocky side. Although he also has a strong sense of loyalty, it can falter when he’s confronted with solid facts or betrayal.
History/Life: Although he was a priest, he couldn’t help but think that it was wrong that he was a demon, one denying his heritage, and taking the path of a holy man. He immediately cast off his way of life, and joined the Ravagers, calling himself Crow. With his powers, the birds that he took his name from became loyal to him, and he rose to second-in-command of the Ravagers, taking orders directly under Mal. He was commanded to destroy Salim 10 years ago, and did so happily. When he was betrayed by Mal, he decided to go off on his own when the world was right again. He's rebuilt the Ravagers, who are loyal to him. He's lately heard of evil rumors, and plans to join up with the one who started them.
Accessories: A silver cross that he never did throw away when he rejected his priesthood.
Weapon(s): Control of crows, and a thin rapier that he can make materialize out of air.

User: Ty Gwynnia
Name: Gorash Uefire
Side: Neutral
Age: 32 or 33
Gender: Boy
Race: Human/"Black Knight", but the makeup of his body has been twisted so much he doesn't see himself as a human anymore, but a monster
Bio: Lighthearted and caring, always cracking jokes. But for the past 13 years, he's been more somber and tries to keep to himself. He has an alter ego he's ashamed of. The alter ego is merciless and cruel, almost bloodthirsty, and evil to the core that it has created in Gorash's being.
History/Life: Gorash was a knight with his best friend, Rore. When Rore left his knighthood for a better life, Gorash stayed behind to cover for him. The king had been becoming something he hadn't shown before. He eventually went through the ranks for an evaluation, taking random soldiers here and there for questioning. This questioning was really something for him to create his knights to be, a force that would be unstoppable while giving the ruse to everyone that they were noble. Gorash was the lucky one he decided to make his greatest champion, his "black knight". He had sorcery and evil magic twist Gorash to be inhumanly strong, tougher to kill or be hurt, and quicker than he'd ever been. His actions caused Gorash to develop an alter ego, something he wished he'd never be as a knight. His alter ego shows no mercy where Gorash would, and laughs cruelly at anyone who thinks they can best him. The corrupt king sent Gorash to join the evil force that threatens the peaceful world, much to the young man's dismay and unfortunate enthusiasm.
Accessories: An emblem of the king he serves, a silver plated dandelion on a chain.
Weapon(s): A halberd with a laughing skull for the top of the metal pole holding the massive blades in place. If needed, he can also use a great sword and/or shield.
Appearance: Gorash

It was a nice day, besides the approaching storm. The townsfolk weren't really bothered by it either. The rebuilt Salim had many differences to the old one, some that included the more spacious town square and the sturdier buildings. The fountain that stood in the center was the same though, Elistral thought as she looked upside down at it. A couple benches had been arranged on the four sides, backs facing the statue in the middle. That had been remade also.

"I wonder how that merchant's faring." Rore remarked, taking a drink of a glass filled with lemonade. "You didn't go along like you usually do. That was an hour ago." He was sitting next to her on the bench, watching the daily activity of everyone.

Elistral raised her head up, glancing at him sideways. "It's not much of a journey to the next town, he should be on his way back anyway." She fiddled with one of her rings, thinking. "I visited Verin the other day, he's doing well."

Rore smiled, then scratched the stubble on his chin. "He moved to another town, didn't he?" He continued when Elistral nodded. "After everything was finished too, I think." He paused, a worried look coming over him. "I haven't heard word of him."

Elistral knew he wasn't talking about the young man they'd known as an angsty teenager now. She put a reassuring hand on the troubled man's shoulder. "I'm sure that he's fine. Maybe the letter got lost, or blew away."

Rore bit his lip. "It's been so long since I've seen him, too. Not since I left him back there. Like a coward." He took a deep breath.

Elistral patted his shoulder before standing up. "Has Maria been finding anymore of the books?" She asked, changing from the uneasy subject. The little girl, now a young woman, had made it her job to find all them under the cobblestones of the road after Elistral had shown her.

Rore drank the rest of the lemonade and grinned at the thought of his daughter. She was serious about it, even recruiting the town's children to help her. "Yeah, a couple. I swear, she wants to be an archeologist when she graduates from the school."

Gorash stared silently at the letter in one of his hands for a long time. He'd gotten it from the small boy who'd been sent from the king he served, acting as a messenger. Along with a personal letter from the king himself. He felt his hand start to shake and crumpled it into a small ball, dropping his head into both of his hands. He missed his best friend so much, ever since he'd helped him and his wife flee from the kingdom. And now he had a daughter. He wanted to go visit all of them in the town that was described for the hundredth time, it seemed like such a nice place. But how could he go now? He was already on a tight lease, and if he wasn't, he probably wouldn't go anyway. He wasn't himself anymore, he'd been telling himself that for years. Like the voice in his mind had been telling him constantly. Even now, it was whispering to him evilly. Shut up!, he growled and beat his fists against his head angrily, producing a deep chuckle from the other him. No, he couldn't go and see his best friend as much as he wanted to. He wasn't the same man as he was before.

Fenrir was sleeping nicely, lost in peaceful dreams. His yellow eyes opened groggily, and he let out a loud groan. He shoved his head underneath the pillow and pulled the warm sheets over it. He didn't want to get up yet, that was the last thing on his mind. But his gut had the same feeling it did when he was called away from the place he loved. "Just a little bit longer..." He mumbled, eyes drifting shut again. "Please, a year longer..."
