Height: 177394Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBOvsVhOLst
Hair colour: Black394Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3z81AJl8eS
Eye colour: Yellow394Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcbomu28rmp
Weight: 33 - 2
Adopted from an early age by the modest Elgo family, it is rumoured even to394Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHyTtWK9B4C
this day, that she was originally of noble origin. Like most, the path that led her to394Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡyvC4YT3YUU
eventually serve in the Hand is shrouded in rumours and speculations, but she is the394Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2qqYnKv5oY
first Human woman to do so - and that alone is quite the feat.394Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaPcFurLmfe
With her raven hair and yellow eyes bordering on orange, she has proven her worth394Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZkYPM0RTN5
time and again and while being extremely capable of felling most opponents in combat394Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3P7kaT4dIQ
with her agility and her speed - her main weapon of choice being the whip - her main394Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡe0SHeAZPs8
importance lies elsewhere.394Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOdCkBftknn
Her most notorious skill lies in linguistics for, after showing a clear aptitude, she394Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡAirYGxYMWt
has been trained from the very start to speak any idiom; this includes even the ability394Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8Rm6x1vo3M
to translate the ancient Centra texts just as easily, if not more so, than most reputed394Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ33CCIFwVla
scholars.394Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTC0fIVLeZb
This ability alone makes her an invaluable member of the team but there is much394Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDIjfPTzail
more to her. Deena can also be seen, frequently, as the calmest and most collected of394Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrk9imboTzP
the four serving under Dhanel Marce.

Harigar Rhim
Height: 184394Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqfzEaZoMxn
Hair colour: White394Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjU0lTrNwbu
Eye colour: Pale Blue394Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnBweuY4vNj
Weight: 46 - 4
Completely dressed in black and with tattoos of the same colour all over his face394Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlWhPfNtKye
that so strongly contrast with his white hair. This extraordinary swordsman entered394Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDfNfOkF55o
these elite ranks years ago and he did not do so at a young age.394Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡzCeZ2eDiQ9
He was already a fully-grown man when he came to the castle to volunteer himself.394Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡavE8rt2AZH
He originates from the tribal village of Naruun, deep within the vast deserts to394Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6UFnvXPwHf
the south where tattoos, and other more ritualistic expressions, are a tradition.394Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡH0A8CvIxb5
The ones on his face are proud symbols of a successful rite of passage and while usually394Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaCwOGsaiV4
such brands are forbidden within the Human military branch, his skill was such that394Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ80BnkpfPOi
Hervies simply could not pass on it.394Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2J1yTTyjXY
As for weaponry, he favours but the one: a thin-bladed sword holding the powers of394Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4zaejJHOgk
lightning and one which he is most skilled with! His somewhat elongated fingernails394Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQ7GETqb2I0
on the hand that wields it are a testament to his abilities, but his skills as a swordsman394Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkfxgKmfS7I
are not his only strength.394Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdWt7MvjpET
Harigar Rhim also has the ability to understand and pick apart any known piece of394Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡm3QREzUorB
technology. He has even been successful when paired against Nharkim tech making394Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡXBvI2uq62K
him not only one of the best soldiers but also one of the best engineers any team could394Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3JY6qFNPu6
ever hope to have around.394Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuFOlXEW5h9
Any life he might have previously owned is now shrouded in mystery - could he394Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoD9aIDwEq8
have been someone important prior to joining?394Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiXBTOxnFDr
A prince or a thief perhaps? Did he come seeking, or running?394Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ6lzdmoJpO
A story for him alone to carry.

Celle Erbe
Height: 182394Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡedocfad2WH
Hair colour: Red and Blue394Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiKUYgCoKcR
Eye colour: Pale Blue394Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrr4gcIEOgH
Weight: 37 - 2
Most of the things concerning Celle have always been kept a secret to all, even to394Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6LWNZQz8id
those she serves with.394Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdH8NPRwCch
And what very little is known about her background is thanks to Dhanel Marce394Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡj8l9HF9akl
and his persistence in always wanting to know about those who are to work with him.394Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiaLcbyma1G
It is even rumoured that Dhanel Marce first refuted the Human king’s direct order of394Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTISahwTbCT
having Celle join him and his men, regardless of her power and promise.394Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUni6DjNtSD
Truth or nay, only two can say, but the fact remains that to this day so much mystery394Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiDNz4GNGBd
still surrounds her.394Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmbIpqNIzfH
The supposed last descendant of a bygone race. The Elvorides, once the guardians of394Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZL8KJoSugh
many treasures of the ancient world, the preservers of older things now left forgotten,394Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡRUgwxybkqX
keepers of memory; but they were also the most gifted amongst all species when it394Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡHLN3Qy4gXs
came to the handlings of natural powers... or magic as the common folk once deemed394Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhUTOJ0SEyJ
to name it...394Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡaCFwCien4k
The Elvorides were at the very top, once, before all that technology and stolen394Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLgHjAva3uG
knowledge came gallivanting into the hands of the lesser races effectively dethroning394Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYayGqg0ULz
them until they were heard from no more.394Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvqOHxljKzE
As the last of her kind, Celle possesses unique strengths making her most formidable394Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQgT1BTFTN2
on almost all fronts. In combat, she carries with her a strangely designed staff, a weapon394Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ91lEPpt5JC
created by the best, working under Human rule and built following ancient schematics.394Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡeLZRo9y5mQ
A weapon to supposedly help her control and channel her inherited powers; a gift that394Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡWNw7cyKY5E
unlike any other here is meant more for focus rather than augmentation.394Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnF326916Es
Thus, unlike the rest, she is not mainly dependent on her weapon to charge into394Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnQOfsTkNVG
battle; she does not need it nor any other enhancements to call forth some of the more394Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUSdw4liHY5
unnatural ways at her disposal. She can be just as deadly while battling completely394Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ14EfW9fk3k
naked for her power is herself and as such, she usually deems others as inferior.394Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡs9Up5iZD99
It would seem then to most, after mere moments of witnessing her, that there is394Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDfu9cN0B9D
nothing that Celle cannot do.

Lorian Krass
Height: 182394Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡegsrsEGaPk
Hair colour: Pitch Black394Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡZXG8n1XwTr
Eye colour: Green394Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ2T4zcr24mZ
Weight: 45 - 4
Found a few years back as the sole survivor of a burning village to the West by394Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTgZ9Qsq6NP
veteran soldiers stationed in a nearby garrison. As reports go, the men spotted the394Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡDVqBn0i94C
sudden, tall fires from afar and came as fast as they could, but by the time they got394Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqklpCFyD7a
there they found nothing but charred stones and burnt pieces of wood.394Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSlDjCbq6qe
Corpses of animals and farmers too, plenty of them, laid strewn across the streets394Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡqtVXs4LQzn
and rundown houses.394Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJBFcfBAlty
Still, following the mandates of duty they scouted and searched without hope with394Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0PDAi49uSh
the ever-gnawing doubts always on their minds... questions like...394Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡvBMs4AuLmO
What were they supposed to do? How were they to report this?394Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMzwevbJCXP
Thoughts swirling inside their heads, but then all of that came to a stop when one394Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6FHxSjArUH
of the men ahead began to repeatedly shout something – a survivor?394Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0UHsIurh2r
Impossible, and yet it was true.394Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ7kQXGhhSeE
They all ran to meet him; a confused and naked young man sweating profusely,394Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLzuBL0RVEA
without any clothes or memory, his body so cold to the touch. Thus, the quiet survivor394Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrdC4XXyq3s
was brought back to their garrison. They tried to question him while waiting for394Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIdVl93fnS8
instructions from the castle, but one can only go so far with a man without voice or394Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTZqEkJn98W
memory. By direct word of his majesty, he was to stay a few more years in that garrison,394Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrgO9VDQrcM
under the tutelage of captain Krass who was to instruct him in all sorts of ways until394Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡf6mXicPgTQ
the time would come for him to be brought to the castle. As for the reasoning of such394Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ8KMHKUkCm7
a mysterious fire, no concrete answer was ever found – those that were witness to it394Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOB9NOi3pXF
reported it as they saw it. In time most learned to toss it up as the doings of a phenom*394Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQEPzxVTsG3
or something else of an uncanny nature.394Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ5G2NhKfTXa
Due to his time under Krass’s tutelage - the man who would also name him -394Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLHFwJrBt0e
Lorian, developed many skills before he was summoned to the castle: he is a master394Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡuBpedoPhLL
tracker the likes the Hand never had, he is also an expert on biology and botany, as394Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIdY8Jrw1WM
well as most capable of crafting, and healing, most known poisons.394Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFLTMKdtEzR
In combat, he favours the usage of light armour sacrificing protection for a higher394Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡtp9vaNBFSu
speed of movement much like Harigar Rhim, but unlike Harigar, Lorian is not a394Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ6EMP1wbYEW
straight-out swordsman. Instead, he relies on a curved blade named ´kagra´, a weapon394Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1iXmtQQ9LO
that was usually paired with a buckler but now one very seldom seen as they stopped394Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡm9Ghzg2LDw
being produced since the last war.394Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnbShyFf5Rp
When not hiding his face with a hood, Lorian displays short black hair with a few394Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQk6hApMJKB
brown stripes in front that are longer than the rest, a somewhat stern face despite his394Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡNeqdfGSK9A
relative youth and a pair of determined green eyes.394Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡcwwm5cpkrE
He never speaks; his voice was never once heard since he was found, never a word394Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡl1WaRpbeuh
and whether this is by trauma or by choice, is to this day still undetermined.

Dhanel Marce
Height: 188394Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1APwTuzSQE
Hair colour: Golden394Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ0EKjvPcw3z
Eye colour: Blue394Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡLZczRhaomy
Weight: 48 - 4
Finally, in charge of them as it always has been, a hero-like figure through and394Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQPLQRL0DfM
through.394Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡQJagY2ffS6
Blonde flowing hair and pale blue eyes escorting his fair skin that often can be seen394Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTLfeFXh4MT
stained with flowered scars.394Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ4N723F7vCZ
Many are the tales surrounding Dhanel Marce and while arguably they are394Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡs769iZ8GtS
supported by some popular folklore, all of them share the same principle of being394Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡkPDaZlyjCr
portents of great bravura. Stories growing so popular that they become almost like394Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡT4YkBuHSJP
those epic tales one can find in the narrations of those with wilder imaginations,394Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡMcQ50CoyVG
as they get passed across mouth and land.394Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡSwHs9WVJa3
Tales such as his latest venture where he singlehandedly went deep down into a cave394Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡIloVo5bWDT
of Zabduans - Human tribes that evolution seems to have missed and are renowned394Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡChXYTyic2Y
for their fierce, and some even say, cannibalistic ways - to save a dame left there for394Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡD4Soesv9zm
some sort of sacrificial rite. A cave deep in the Pedenke jungles a place far from any394Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpLGiHF6HUp
soldier’s orders.394Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjgE4qxjRUk
And that is but the latest.394Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGKJ7Vo7KTX
So, it seems that the undisputed leader of the five, the thumb in that kingly hand, is394Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡrC1vhfAIl1
a man willing to go the extra distance to do what is right.394Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡH6BQQntfiy
The instructions he gives might often not be his own but of his king’s, but he seems394Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhgzgwPgQLJ
to always manage to deliver them with a certain power that makes him an easy man394Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡlYAk32hgXS
to follow.394Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡdsZpk0mHXI
Dhanel Marce is a man that irradiates confidence and assurance as only the leader394Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡUISaIcgK2M
of the Hervies’s Hand can and so, having told all of this, it must be noted that this394Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡa9Ggfua7BU
champion has never failed his majesty... not once... not ever...
