Player Characters
http://www.splitreflection.com/~cal/actors/calico/calico.png Calico, a Female Fae-touched Cat Cleric
- A short calico felionoid cleric. She tends to exhibit a cat's typical aloof and superior attitude. Her robes are modified with an overlapped opening in the back through which her tail may appear when she's in a good mood. She purrs when happy. When unhurried, she tends to move silently by instinct, thus tending to sneak up on people without intending to. As a cat, she greatly dislikes being soaked. She will, however, wash on a daily basis with a damp cloth if possible.
- Her parents are uncertain, but suspected to be a cat and a fae. Largely rejected, she lived at edges of human society until age 8. Taking shelter from a storm in small roadside temple, she was adopted by local clerics of Obad-Hai. After a settling in period they taught her clerical arts and healing. She learned about plants and herbs from the hobbit gardener who tended the natural gardens surrounding the temple, between tales of the great adventures of one of the gardeners ancestors, also a gardener. After her training was complete, she was sent to found a temple to Obad-Hai in the city of Cauldron. (what was the priest thinking sending =her=?)
http://www.splitreflection.com/~paw/gamin/Characters-Ethkin.png Ethkin, A Male Human Monk/Elementalist
- You see a young adult human of slender but powerful build. He wears only a pair of ratty looking cloth trousers tied at the waist with some rope. His white irised eyes stare vacantly, but you can tell that he is quite alert to his surroundings. His scalp is shaved bare, but vibrant 'carrot' eyebrows and lashes betray his true hair color, and the matching stubble stands out against his seeming unnaturally pale skin that won't tan, or burn, or even freckle!
http://www.splitreflection.com/~akili/dnd/Characters-Jiona.png Jiona, a Female Fae-touched Fox; Elementalist
- Jiona is an upright-walking red fox - a Fae-touched humanoid fox, for those aware of them - standing a little under five feet tall and possessing a slim build to match her young appearance. Her fur is orange-red, with black 'gloves' for her hands and feet, as well as the tips of her ears, her nose, and the last couple inches of her bushy tail. Her bright red hair is curled back in a loose ponytail, out of the way of her ears and her brilliant green eyes. She is currently wearing a mottled-green kilt of some heavy cloth in addition to a loose-fitting brown leather vest, and carries a small backpack. If she were fully human, she'd be quite easy on the eyes; as she is, her heritage merely makes her seem exotic.
http://www.splitreflection.com/~calin/Actors/wizard.png Tillandor, A Male Human Wizard
- A skinny wizard with tousled dirty blond hair and a prominent adams apple. Tillandor is dressed in scholar's attire, with a fancy dagger at his waist, a number of pouches hung about his person, and a backpack on his back.
Aru, a Female Leonen
- Aru is a fae-touched lioness, colloquially known as a Leonen, born to natural lions. She is still young, about eleven years of age, and has lived at the outskirts of civilized society - primarily due to a strong sense of curiosity about these humanoids that she also slightly resembled - long enough to pick up their language, but like many lone Fae-Touched, she tried to avoid drawing attention to herself. All of her clothing is well-used and threadbare in spots, save her tunic which she more recently yanked from somebody's washing line. All of her clothes are very dirty, as she doesn't bother to wash them, and at home with her natural family, she doesn't wear them at all.
- She does not have any visible weapons beyond her claws and teeth, but they look dangerous enough, even at her young age. Her most important possession is a pendant around her neck that she found near her home.
- Because of her backround, Aru is still prone to reverting to her feral habits at inappropriate times. However, despite her being a predator, she is very fond of animals and frequently establishes strong bonds with them.
- In the end, despite all of her efforts to remain unnoticed, she was captured for sale at an underground slave market, until an opportunity presented itself to escape from her kidnappers. Having taken advantage of that opportunity, she continued trying to find a way out, which in due time brought her across the path of the Cauldron party.
Former Player Characters
Tass, a Male Half-Elven Rogue
- A slight young male half elf with blue black hair and a dark complexion. He wears a light tunic and slacks, over which he wears a well worn ruddy brown traveling cloak. He wears multiple gold necklaces and a gold bangle on each wrist, but he wears no rings on his fingers. He has multiple piercings on each ear, and on his left ear a delicate chain connects two of them from which a pure crystal hangs. He also wears a small ruby on his nose and smudges red dyed khol under his eyes each morning. He doesn't appear to carry any weapons, but he moves with an air of confidence and subtle grace that comes with diligent training of the body.
http://www.splitreflection.com/~paw/gamin/Characters-Rayne.png Rayne, a Male Human Crusader
- You see a lean but muscular human standing a little over five and one-half feet tall with slight traces of elven heritage in his facial features. He has piercingly emerald green eyes, short-cropped copper red hair, olive skin, and slightly pointed ears. He is ruggedly handsome in his own way and carries himself with an air of dignity. His clothes are of fine quality with a small crest of a red lion with a white background embroidered on his vest. He wears a chain vest and a necklace dangling from his neck with four maces and four spears all radiating out on a red circle. Strapped into a holster on his back is a giant sword almost as large as he is, with the hilt sticking out prominently over his head pointing towards the sky. The sword is unremarkable except for long strips of cloth wrapped around the long handle with the ends dangling slightly out to the side.
