Biography:
As soon as he passed the border between Damarin and Nidor, Gregor breathed a sigh of relief, electing to fall asleep under a tree after the harrowing cross. It looked like he would have been caught for sure more than a few times either by Hylarian or Damarinian border patrol, but as always, he had somehow managed. Setting his pack down, he didn’t bother putting a fire together, instead huddling in his cloak a little more to protect from the chill. He checked his provisions, and sure enough, he had calculated correctly. He would make it to Cliffport before starving. From there, well, he would have to worry about that later.

His headband was sweaty, and he didn’t want a headcold, so he went about slowly unwrapping it from his head, showing the slight horns which were budding out of his forehead, black before his already greying hair. Despite his fatigue, he couldn’t get to sleep, the events of the last month unfolding themselves in his mind once more, as if he needed to re-check every detail. The job with Skimble’s crew going all the way south, his daring escape, the suspicion among the bosses that he had left the kids out to dry... he seriously doubted his wisdom in not just skipping town as soon as he had made the slip on the guard. In truth, he was taking the last of his escape provisions home when he walked into his room at the Inn to find a big sucker with a knife looking to slit his throat, but what could you do? He had left that night for Cliffport. The one place the bosses would have trouble reaching their grubby little fingers into. As long as their reach was, he sincerely doubted they would even dream of trying to get to him through a wall of super-powered, invincible elves, if they figured out where he was, that is.

He could make it though that wall though, because he was a good guy, and good guys always make it, no matter what. Besides, Cliffport probably needed someone of his calibre to liven the place up. Contented with those final thoughts, he went to sleep, smirking.

Background:

Orion was sent on the mission to evaluate the possible threat the Hylar might represent to Tibat, given their seemingly grand knowledge about the area and the way they decimated the former kingdom of Nidor. Any information he could gather about them would be of possible value, which included their social structure, attitudes, cultural values, religion, etc. And not the least, how in the world they did what they did and who they were running from. On the way from Tibat to Nidor, he and his party got trapped in another country—Hradon—during that country’s civil war. It was there where he learned clerk skills. When his party finally was given clearance to leave, they were attacked by a hydra. His entire party was killed. The map was destroyed in the attack, and lost, he wandered in the desert west of Nidor for several long weeks, barely surviving. He finally arrived in Cliffport maybe two weeks ago and got a job working as a clerk for a trading company, trying to blend in as much as possible and make friends with the elves.

Appearance:
Sirius is a human male, about 6'1". He has long blond hair he usually wears in a ponytail, his frame is more lean and wiry than heavily built, and he has blue eyes under a stern brow and a square jaw. He wears no facial hair. Normally he's seen in his banded mail and green cloak, and he usually keeps his buckler strapped to his arm even outside of combat. Unlike most heavily-armored types, Sirius wields a longbow with great effect, and he never lets it leave his side.

When not wearing his armor, Sirius usually wears plain brown or green clothing, something that will blend into a natural setting, where he is most comfortable due to the tendencies of his god.

Biography:
Sirius is from Eluchish, and you'll immediately be able to tell by speaking with him due to his thick accent (what we would consider today to be Scottish--I'll attempt to depict this fully in my writing). He's always considered himself a wanderer as he roamed the hilly countryside of his home, largely uncaring for the government or lack thereof that he found. The bonds that go between Eluchish are those of kin and spirit, not of law.

Anyway, Sirius left home as soon as he was old enough to survive on his own, becoming close to his god, Shilleloch, who encouraged him to embrace travel and self-sufficience through hunting and living in the wild lands. He traveled for years, acting almost as a ranger would by training himself to fight through his encounters with wild beasts, benign or malignant.

One day, things changed dramatically. He was out in the wild, taking a drink from a pond, when he was attacked by a viscious troll. He was no match for the creature, but with one of its swipes, the troll knocked him into the pond. He was shocked to discover that the pond was a natural magic portal to an identical pond somewhere else, and when he surfaced, he was far away. Using his spells to heal his wounds, Sirius set out to find out where he was. He found a small town and realized that he was a long way from Eluchish. However, he knew what direction he needed to head, so he set out immediately.

Now Sirius is questing to return to his homelands, but enjoying the opportunity to travel on the way. His current path takes him through the town of Cliffport...

Background:
Quatzal was only 4 years old when his adoptive elf parents found him in a destroyed Lizardfolk village. Rána and Húrin, a married couple of Hylar elves, were out scouting for new lands, when they found Quatzal. His village had been burned down by enemies of the tribe, and everyone had been left for dead, but it turned that a single lizard child had only been badly wounded. Being able to use a bit of magic healing Rána and Húrin was able to save the child, and Rána, who was unable to get any children of her own, quickly decided to adopt him.
Being raised among Hylar elves, Quatzal has seen very few members of his own race since Rána and Húrin found him. His culture, values and religion is now that of a Hylar elf, and while he speaks elven and common very well, he has only a basic understanding of the language of his own people.
Quatzal was only 11 when the Hylar invaded Nidar, so he was too young to participate in the fighting (Lizardfolk age at the same rate as humans). For the last 5 years he has trained as a ranger, but he needs some practical experience to complete his training. He has never been in a real fight for his life, and he hasn’t killed anything lager than rabbit. Now at an age of 17 he has decided to do some adventuring of his own, in order to get the practical experience he needs to complete his ranger training.

NPCs:
Rána (level 4 ranger/level 1 rogue): Quatzal’s adoptive mother. Rána is an experienced Hylar adventurer and is married with Húrin who is also an experienced adventurer. Rána is unable to get any children of her own, and have developed a tendency to cast her love on any young creature in need of care. She has adopted many animals, quite a few humanoids, and even a few magical creatures in her lifetime. Many of the animals have become an animal companion of her or Húrin when they reached adulthood.

Húrin (level 4 ranger/level 2 fighter): Quatzal’s adoptive father. Húrin is an experienced Hylar adventurer and is married with Rána. While Húrin is often a bit skeptic about the creatures that Rána adopts, he almost always end up loving them as much as Rána does (but good luck getting him to admit that…)

Weninda: Quatzal’s adoptive sister: Weninda is a 9 years old halfling girl that Rána adopted when her whole family was killed during the invasion of Nidar.
