Xenos was destined to a life of a soldier, to become a sellsword and mercenary. He joined a band of soldiers for hire as soon as he was able, as he set out to seek his fortune.

Character Sheet for the God/Goddess:





Name: Samhain

Gender: Male, ostensibly

Age: Millennia, obviously

Pantheon: I mean the Celts gave me a decent enough name, (though it's a common misnomer that Samhain is a God, which just appeals to me), but like any good God I have a few. You may know me as the Atrisian God of Disguise, for example.

Physical description (picture if applicable):

• Height; Taller than Ma'at
• Weight: Heavier than Ma'at
• Skin color: Ask Ma'at
• Hair color: Ask Ma'at
• Eye color: Yellow-white

Personality:

• Quirks: You'd be better off asking what quirks I don't have.
• Likes/dislikes: Boredom is my eternal foe, and chaos my eternal aim
• Strengths/weaknesses: I'm Entropy, by it's very nature it betrays me as much as it is me... one could say I'm treachery incarnate.

Short Bio:

Oh, you know the stories.

Guy has plans, life does what it does, and he swears vengeance. The road becomes a bit vague, and his overall goal, well, it becomes unclear. He does a few things that would be considered... sketchy, but ends up doing what he needed to though not in the way he intended.

So here I am, the nominal God of Entropy and Chaos... and one of those little surprises was finding love... and even heartbreak. Ma'at, the only person who has seen the real me in, what, a hundred millennia? We had a kid too, would you believe, and he's a noble, square, sort. He needs some nudging and the other Gods may not like it, but they're all playing the Game so who cares.

Ma'at won't go away, of course... why would she? I'm the most interesting thing that ever happened... and I may as well flirt with Order and Love.

 

GM Approved and ready to rumble...

Name: Nyruel Guldor
Gender: Male
Age: 312
Race: Drow
Physical description:

• Height: 5ft 11in
• Weight: 150 lbs
• Skin color: See Above
• Hair color: See Above
• Eye color: See Above

Personality:

• Quirks: Pompous, Proud, and Arrogant. Is known to easily dismiss non-elves, however, if they are able to make a good enough point then he will listen.
• Likes: Magic, Logic, Knowledge, Other Drow
• Dislikes: All non-Drow races, non-magic users
• Strengths: Skilled in magic, and undead magic practices
• Weaknesses: Poor in physical combat

Weapons: Magical Staff, Daggers, Magic

Short Bio: Born in Reemond, the capital of the Drow Kingdom he was born to a noble family. His every want and need was granted, he was cultivated to be proud of his heritage, in the supremacy of the Drow and their magical capabilities. When he was of age he set off into the world to further his studies of becoming a powerful warlock. He set off for Huiz Guo, the sister Drow state, during his travels he came across many other races, and each time he did he was disappointed with how truly patheic they were. Only the Elves of Qedraerhiel were able to garner his 'respect'.

In time the god Anubis took note of the Nyruel's activities and growing power, finding a small fondness in the seriousness and grand purpose that he carried himself with everything Anubis decided to make him his champion in this little game he was playing.


Character Sheet for the God/Goddess:

Name: Anubis
Gender: Male
Age: I am the God of Death you think my age is of any consequence?
Pantheon: Egyptian
Physical description:

• Height: Variable
• Weight: Variable
• Skin color: See Above
• Hair color: N/A
• Eye color: See Above

Personality:

• Quirks: Is deadpan and serious in everything he does. When Anubis says he'll do something, he'll do it.
• Likes: Those that pay their respects, Magic, Death, Mummification, Tombs.
• Dislikes: Rudeness, insincerity, lies, graverobbers.
• Strengths: Extremely powerful in terms of magical ability, strong domain on the dead
• Weaknesses: Doesn't understand sarcasm, easy to make fun of him and it go right over his head, takes everything literally.

Short Bio:
Anubis, The Jackal God, God of Death, the Afterlife, and Mummification. Grand Psychopomp of the Underworld. Anubis is many things but a loser is not one of them. He holds great sway over the beings of Selenia. For he may be the God of Death but he offers hope. Hope of life after death. His worshippers form into one of two main categories: those that ask for his divine powers or blessing, allowing them to conjure the dark magic of the world or those that seek admittance into the afterlife.

While he maintains his deadly serious composure at all times that does not mean he is incapable of fun, he enjoys the games that he and the other gods play. Failure is not an option, not only due to his competitive nature but if they lose, if all the mortals die in Selenia, well, he will have a lot of work to do.

 

Name: Sarathai Treesinger
Gender: female
Age: Sarathai has seen the passing of sixty-seven summers, but time passes strangely in the land of the Wood Elves, and she is still but a juvenile in terms of the ages of the fae.
Race: Wood Elf
Description:



Personality:
Quirks: Sarathai has a temperament to match her fiery red hair, and a ferocious tenacity when roused. On the other hand, she can be gentle and kind to those she cares for. She is fickle even for an Elf, and considered childish, troublesome and hot-headed by the elders of her kindred.

Likes: The Forest, animals, nature, open spaces, trustworthiness
Dislikes: Destruction, sprawling cities, being bound or enclosed or imprisoned, dishonesty

Strengths/weaknesses: Sarathai is a mage who calls upon the natural magic that runs beneath her bare feet, through the forests and rivers. When she is near places of natural magic flows, her powers become stronger, but when she is far from these sources, it becomes weaker. Her magic is not as powerful or destructive as that of sorcerers or more advanced wizards. On the other hand, she can also be a fierce warrior – though clearly she is small and weak compared to many, and wears no armour at all (it would disrupt her aura), and must rely on skill and agility.

Weapons: Dagger and longbow (with several magical arrows)

Short bio: Sarathai (meaning "Defiance" in the ancient Asrai tongue) is from the mysterious land known to outsiders as Tu, on the continent of Eosucera. She was orphaned as an infant by a raid from the canims, which killed her parents while they travelled at the border of the Great Forest. The baby’s cries awakened the tree spirits nearby, and the treekin roused to drive away the beastmen. Sarathai was then taken by the dryads to the nearest Elven settlement, deep in the woods.



There it was realised she was touched with magic and had a connection to the woodland spirits. She was taken in and raised by the eccentric mage, Ranu the Wild, and began to learn the ways of Treesinging.

As a child, she accompanied Ranu on expeditions to gather lore or recover ancient lost magical artefacts from lands beyond the forests of Tu, and became a fierce defender of nature. Even other Wood Elves came to view her as fiery-tempered and fickle as the winds, much like the enigmatic tree spirits themselves. She was like a force of nature.

Ranu has disappeared, during an expedition upon which he refused to bring young Sarathai. She left the kindred and wandered to the dark Deepwood, a place ruled by the ancient forest spirits and avoided even by the Elves.

There she was visited by the vision of Isha, Goddess of Life, who instructed her and set her upon her current path, to defeat the Destroyer…

Goddess

Name: Isha
Gender: female
Age: eternal
Pantheon: The Asrai Pantheon includes Kurnous the Hunter, Vaul the Smith, and so on
Physical description:



Personality: Isha is the goddess of Life and Light, associated with spring and sunshine (when her powers are at their zenith), healing and kindness, and of course procreation. But the cycle of life necessarily involves death, and Isha can be vengeful and vindictive. Some may think she is opposed to Anubis, the God of Death, but the relationship is more like an uneasy truce, wherein each subtly tries to gain advantage over the other, but in the end they are both two sides of the same coin.

 

Because the Great GM said I could!!
.***************************************
Name: Nissa Taneefoot
Protectress of Magic, Fey Wanderer, Warrior Fairy
Age: What are the passing of seasons, to one who has seen many?
Race: Fae
Description: Tall and slender, she is very fleet of foot, and fast with wings as well. Brown hair, and well-toned arms, when not in armor, she favors the colors of the forest. She always has something blue on, in honor of the Honored Mother.
Gender: Female
Eyes: Deep dark Blue
Hair: Brown
Height: 4.2"/5'.0"


Nissa has spent her entire life in various forests. She enjoys the forests and the creatures that live there. Of course, it might also have something to do with that she is also a fairy. Most times, she prefers to stay in fairy form, but the Goddess Mystra has gifted her with the shapeshifting ability, so she can shapeshift. She can appear as a tall, slender elf as well. Brown hair and deep blue eyes, she also has wings that are blue with a violet tint. She wears armor, that can change with her. And it is not loud, very light, and does not impede her, especially when flying.

Personality: Normally, she is carefree, with a normal sprite-like personality. Her moods can swing wildly. But when she is in battle, she is almost close to a Berzerker. She is serious in combat and fierce in protecting those she cares for. Nissa knows of the Goddess Mystra, and she had vowed to protect the woods and all things magical as best she can in her name. She has visited the cities, when in Elf form. There she wears a cloak to hide her wings.

Being a true fae, she loves colorful, sparkly things, and can sometimes get distracted.

------------------
Character Sheet for her God/Goddess:

Name: Mystra/ Mystral
Gender: Female
Age: never ask a lady her age... she is always reborn.
Pantheon: Faerûnian pantheon - Symbol Light Blue star

Physical description (picture if applicable): Mysta manifested herself in many ways through many conduits, but her followers usually described her as a beautiful human woman with intense blue eyes that wore gracefully refined blue-white robes of fine, thick silk. Her skin glowed and her hair was every color of the rainbow. When being mysterious, she was depicted as a swarm of rainbow-colored will-o'-wisps in the vague shape of a humanoid female.
Height; Various
Weight: Various
Skin color: Light
Hair color: Blond
Eye color: Blue

Personality: Mystryl had a mercurial personality that reflected her chaotic nature. She could be coldly serious one moment, and laughingly boisterous the next. She could be blushingly innocent or sagely wise, blithely unfocused or relentlessly dedicated. But in all her capriciousness she tried to do what she thought best for the Weave and practice of the Art in Toril.

Quirks: If she had flaws it was that at times she seemed naive and too trusting. Her followers and those who used magic for good or ill were sometimes made aware of her approval or disapproval by a gift, a message, or aid in some form. All Mystryl's incarnations, messengers, animal forms, and servants had blue or mismatched eyes.

Likes/dislikes: Mystra believes that all magic should be free and to be shared to those who can use it. She hates Tyrants and those who would try to keep magic away from all others who could use it. Magic is both a gift and a responsibility. Hates and bans time travel, as that disturbs the weave. She has been described as neutral tempered with a ruthless dislike of some.

Strengths/weaknesses: Being the embodiment and consciousness of the Weave, Mystryl could wield magic like no other being. She had no practical limitations on how many spells she could cast, how powerful they were, how often she could cast them, or what form they could take. Unless she willed otherwise, she was immune to all spells except those that bypassed her control of the Weave and drew on the raw magic from which the Weave was woven. She could withhold magic from any entity, making spellcasting impossible, and even prevent them from using magical items if she so desired. She could block other deities from accessing the Weave, but she could not prevent them from granting spells to their priests through prayer.

Short Bio: Legend has it that at the dawn of time Lord Ao created the universe, and out of the early chaos came twin deities: Shar of the darkness and Selûne of the light. Together, these two beings created the spheres in the firmament, one of which was the world of Abeir-Toril and its spirit, Chauntea. Chauntea desired new and more abundant life for her world and asked the sisters for light and warmth in order to nurture it. In this, the two beings could not agree. Selûne eventually acted on her own and gave Toril a sun, which Shar immediately sought to put out, thus beginning the battle between light and darkness that raged for eons. At some point, the Dark Goddess got the upper hand and doused many of Selûne's motes of light. In a desperate move, Selûne tore a piece of magical essence from herself and hurled it at her sister. When it hit, Shar also lost a portion of her essence and was cast into the void for centuries. From the blending of dark and light energies, Mystra was born as a being of pure magic inextricably tied to the Weave. Both of the twins were diminished as a result, with the Moonmaiden's wound being more grave. However, Mystryl was ideologically closer to Selûne and being created from both light and darkness, Mystryl (and later goddesses of magic) acted as a balancing force between Selûne and the Lady of Loss. Mystra is the goddess of the essential force that makes all spellcasting possible.

Rangers - Order of the Shooting Star
and Knights - Knights of Mystic Fire

Other titles:
The Lady of Mysteries
the Muse,
the Mother of All Magic

Age: 28
Race: Human
Physical description:
Height: 5'6"
Weight: 155
Skin color: Tanned
Hair color: Black
Eye color: Brown
Personality:
Quirks: Does drinking rum seem like a quirk? Or always adjusting paintings and other wall hanging items so they are just slightly askew, though not all of them, just to keep people guessing? Or never being there in the morning after a night with a lady because I can't fathom the thought of being with the same woman for the next day much less the rest of my life? Are those Quirks?
Likes/dislikes: The Sea, Freedom, Rum, Women, largely in that order. Dislikes: Governments, Tyranny, Salvery, Salvers and Pirate Hunters, All of those equally.
Strengths/weaknesses: Does a winning smile and silver tongue count as a strength? A fear of long term commitment to anything other than a ship is that a weakness? I'd see it as a strength see then I'm not tied down to anyone and with my ship I can go anywhere I please. I'm handy with an axe, and a crossbow...yes that's what that is in my hand, a crossbow...And well, what Pirate isn't in love with the amber lady, Rum. Though I find I work better tipsy...it's when I'm stone sober that I have...issues. But so long as the alcohol still flows I'm a good adventurous man.
Weapons: Boarding axe, and Hand Crossbow
Short Bio: You don't need to know much, orphan kid that signed on board a ship far too young and never looked back. I've gotten into some scrapes but have always come out the other side, though I do hear whispers from time to time.

Strengths/weaknesses: Well, I mean I was a sellsword in my last life so, good with a blade. Then there's my prodigious knowledge of brewing and distilling. I do have a weakness for a pretty face, and it has gotten me into trouble many times.
Short Bio: One night on a drunken dare, I became a god. What trials I faced or what the test actually was I don't remember, I barely even remember the night itself. But, I'm here now and I make it my mission to liberate those in chains, and make sure good drink flows.

The sword he carries is not just for show. A relic from a time long forgotten, as he was a survivor from a kingdom that not longer exists. Records of those days are buried deep within the archives.

A constant traveller. Learning what he can, assisting those in need and spreading kindness. Meeting some good friends along the way.

Some claim he carries the blessing of the goddess. Not that he would confirm nor deny such claims but there is a twinkle in his eye when the subject is brought up which makes you wonder.

Her song is the first greeting of every morning. Softly spoken, gentle soul. She was assigned as a guardian to watch over the Kingdom of Adweawyr.

Over the centuries she learned to care and love her subjects and indirectly steered them along the path of prosperity, in turn she was revered, respected and loved in return.

Unfortunately, a series of events, not of her doing, had lead to a great calamity that befell the kingdom. She fought and struggled with her people to turn back the tide though it became a lost cause. Hope was extinguished from the lands.

Against her wishes, intervention from the other gods had wiped out her subjects, her lands and almost all she held dear to clean the slate.

The catastrophe had cut her deep, damaged her reputation and stripped her of her position. She vowed to never let such a thing happen again.

Since then, she is steadily working hard to earn back what she had lost and to prevent such a calamity from happening again.

Age: 235
Race: Dwarf
Physical description:

• Height: 1.50 m
  
• Weight: 80 kg
  
• Skin color: Caucasian
  
• Hair color: Reddish Brown
  
• Eye color: Grey

Personality:

• Quirks: speaks his mind even if the others don't like what he says, likes to fight

• Strengths/weaknesses: can be rather impulsive and rude, has mild agoraphobia, but loyal to a fault, good technical skills and basic runespeaking (magical) skills

Weapons: a large warhammer, book of runes
Short Bio: Born in Marcish in a Warrior Caste family that predetermined his future. Mieli became a Ranger, allowed to go out of the mines to fight the enemies of the Dwarves. He has been struggling with his agoraphobia for years, but the demands of the job required him to venture under the clear blue skies. Being a Ranger meant that he would have to face his fears. Kazmya bordered the drow nation of Askar and two elven kingdoms. Venturing underground to deal with the threats coming from the drow nation and the thick canopy of the elven forests provided cover and he did not have to deal with the dreaded blue skies.

Character Sheet for the God/Goddess:

Name: Branka
Gender: Male
Age: Unknown
Pantheon: Dwarven Paragon
Physical description:

• Height: 1.40 m

Personality:

• Quirks: Can be rather humorous and a bit sarcastic

Short Bio: Elevated into a Paragon due to his acts of courage and loyalty to his people. Known to favor Dwarven champions and likes to try to influence the events in their favor. He particularly liked Mieli, whose struggles with the agoraphobia made him sympathetic to his cause. That made Branka break certain rules by providing additional guidance for the dwarf without the others' knowledge.
