Into the Ashlands (RP)
Quick find code: 49-50-767-66019003
Name: Octavius Kaeso Quinctilius Sertorius
Age: 42
Gender: Male
Race: Human
Appearance: short black hair, clean-shaven, brown eyes, heavy musculature. 5’7’’, 180 lbs.
Attire:
Weapons: gladius, pugio
Magic: N/A
History: Born into a family of ancient nobility in the Gara Republic, Octavius’ family could afford good education for him. But, his path was not commerce or administration, but of war. He served as a soldier, mariner, mercenary, caravan guard, bodyguard, and officer when he had to lead men to battle.
After over two decades of warfare, on land and water, Octavius is knowledgeable about tactics, strategy, martial arts, military protocol, and improvisation. He will be a useful man in Arenar Company, though his age is getting to him. His wargear is clear evidence of his riches, success, and refined tastes, in both striking aesthetics and fearsome practicality. He is expecting to find great treasures, so needs to look good yet intimidating!
He has a wife, three sons, and two daughters. All his children have left home years ago and started their own families. His wife has household servants to look after her.
Other: He is ambidextrous, capable of using weapons well in either hand. Being muscular but not tall means he is quite fast with his hands. He at times can be a funny guy.

Name: Xavakuun
Age: 31
Gender: Male
Race: Drakonian
Appearance:
8’6’’, 570 lbs. Although not shown, we assume he has a tail.
Attire: cuirass, greaves, vambraces, cuisses
Weapons: Two hammer-backed battleaxes (the picture shows them with impractically short handles, but we imagine the handles to be doubled in length)
Magic: N/A
History: One second is all that’s needed to know he is quite a fearsome warrior. Most Drakonians are not even up to his shoulders, and a lifetime spent in overexertion of fighting, exercises and training has made Xavakuun’s body bulky and powerful. He is an extremely dangerous foe, especially since he wears partial plate armour. Scales, claws, teeth, and talon-like toes adds to his natural arsenal. Only the most resolute can withstand his indomitable charges. However, being a superheavyweight, he lacks quickness, speed, mobility, agility, and stamina.
Unlike most Drakonians, Xavakuun gradually developed an interest in the outside world. What was beyond his species’ island homeland? At times, he even wondered if there really was anything in the world besides the island. His questions would finally need to be answered after finding out his sister, Luna, an albino Drakonian with aniridia, had mysteriously disappeared. She had in fact left the island some months ago, heading for the so-called Ashlands on her own. It was unclear whether she went to Old Sorus or Gnaris. Apparently, Luna believed a World Stone created the Ashlands somehow, and that magic occasionally wiped out entire continental civilisations, and so a deathly World Stone must have also created the Deadlands.
Eager to find out what happened to his silly younger sister, Xavakuun did everything he could to find clues. Eventually, his twin sister, Caspara, noticed her twin’s odd behaviour, and joined him in his quest. Once able, they set sail, reaching the Drow Empire and then to the land of the humans.

During their searching and sailing, they ended up at the Academy of Greenhaven and did some inquiring that did not work out, and then sailed to Daralt for further information. There, he overheard Vanick's speech. Hopefully, they can now head to the Ashlands via Arenar Company. Perhaps he will find his lost sister.
He is curious to work with other peoples, and see what happens. Contrary to his frightening size and appearance, Xavakuun is fond of cute things, has a weakness for sweets, is quite tolerant and patient, and at times is rather childish.
Other: He struggles in climbing, turning, and swimming, unsurprising, considering his weight and size. Although he can be dumb at times, he is quite intelligent with his killer instinct.
Name: Caspara
Age: 31
Gender: Female
Race: Drakonian
Appearance:
8’3’’, 410 lbs. Although not shown, we assume she has a tail.
Attire: cuirass, greaves, vambraces, cuisses
Weapons: axe, war hammer
Her war hammer, which is about four feet long in all, which she wields in her left hand:
Magic: N/A
History: Caspara hatched into a family of warriors, so was raised as one, just like her twin brother, who hatched with her in the same egg. This was taken as an omen of good luck, a symbol of triumph. Ironically, the twins began fighting as soon as they popped their heads out their eggshell, and the fighting continued throughout their childhood. Although their passive rivalry has never really ended, the twins have a sort of camaraderie and mutual acceptance for one another. They’re still brother and sister, after all.
Caspara is a tall, muscular, feisty female, even getting into fights with males once in a while. Indeed, growing up fighting her brother all the time, even when he was vastly bigger and stronger than she ever could be, made Caspara quite courageous and cunning. However, she can be impulsive at times, reacting from emotion or violent outbursts rather than sense.

Name: Griselda
Age: 50
Gender: Female
Race: Human
Appearance:
Seven feet tall, two hundred pounds, athletic. Although her hair has gone white (she used to be blonde), she looks very good for her age. Bright brown eyes, perfect teeth.
Attire:
Weapons: two-handed sword, dagger
Magic: N/A
History:
Griselda's memory is failing, so she only remembers vagueness. She was just a farmgirl growing up in a Dwarven settlement, working hard all day everyday as soon as she could walk. The unusually tall girl daydreamed of fairy tales, fantasizing about being a princess who lived in a crystal castle surrounded by gardens, waiting for someone she referred to as “My love…”. She prayed to Camilla regularly, and was a loner. There were not many human children, and most of the time, no child played with her.
One day, a military official and his comrades went to her settlement, and concluded it was not worthwhile to be protected. It was too far from home, too close to danger, and too difficult to defend. They left the settlement, and a few weeks later, it was destroyed by Orcs.
Only Griselda survived. Ironically, one of the raiders, an Orc woman, somewhat adopted Griselda, probably either from pity or realizing there was something truly remarkable about the very tall human girl. Thus, Griselda began her military career, raised by those who destroyed her life, her family, and everything she once knew.
As she got older, Griselda earned respect amongst her new friends, quickly learning combat. She possessed superhuman strength, equivalent to that of her captors, and yet, she gradually defeated them more often in training. Participating in raids, battles, skirmishes, and whatever else came her way, she proved herself. Since a teenager, she occasionally fought others, even against Goblins, Elves, Dwarves, other Orcs, whatever foe her tribe had, she fought with.
