Trickle Flickerflash grew up in Nooktuck, pushed toward a quiet life of animal wrangling, but his restlessness sent him traveling with a wandering merchant caravan. Life on the road suited him until a Fey Lord was assassinated nearby and he was blamed, forcing him to flee to protect the others.

Cyrus grew up in a wandering flotilla of astral travellers who treated the cosmos like a patchwork of doorways, and he picked up that same easy curiosity about anything strange or impossible.

Morgana was born in the dark land of Umbra into a complicated family, where power and devotion were a gilded cage. Thanks to a treasure hunter with whom she forged a deep bond and her innate curiosity, she managed to escape to live her own life, far from any chains.

Althea is a confident, cocky and brave sky-pirate duelist who leads her inherited skyship with a mix of swagger and sharp instinct. She’s the kind of captain who throws herself at challenges just to see if she can outfly, outthink or outfight whatever’s in her way.

Spiteblossom was awakened by a mighty archdruid to fulfil a world-saving prophecy, but a giant acorn dropped on the archdruid’s head the moment the ritual ended - wiping her memory and any sense of what Spiteblossom was actually meant to do.

Kard was born into a hard, practical orc tribe, and from the moment he arrived with devil-touched features, everyone assumed he’d bring trouble. Instead of casting him out, the tribe marked him with white ritual tattoos meant to keep his path tied to the natural world.

When Glimmer Joygore fell, the sky burned. Her wings turned to cinders mid-descent, her halo melting into smoke. By the time she hit the ground, there was nothing left of heaven but the scars scorched into her back and a hole where her memory should be.

Edwin found the sword half-buried under an old bridge, its metal dull and ordinary. It didn’t speak to him until years later, when he drew it in a fight he had no business being in. Since then, the blade has pushed him toward bolder choices, convinced he’s meant for more.

Ned was the kind of mind that never stopped turning, even when everyone around him wished it would. He treated necromancy like a grand logic problem - bones, spirits, and death itself were all clues in a system waiting to be mapped.

Skrandlvarsh went to bed in his normal world and woke up somewhere completely different - a place of magic, monsters, and people with very dramatic backstories. Assuming it was just a dream, he decided to roll with it and made up the name Skrandlvarsh as a joke.

When Kaj discovered he could bend raw elements with sheer will, he took it as a sign that legends weren’t born, they were self-declared and then lived into. He travels now as a problem-solver and occasional chaos-starter, pulling fire from the air and metal from forgotten scrap.

Born in The Underdark beneath the Moonsea, K’Elley C’Larkson came into the world as the result of a scandal - a Drow matron’s fleeting fascination with a Halfling smuggler. Never fully accepted by either world, he learned early that cleverness keeps you fed better than pride.

Hailing from the Feywilds, Sarissa once served the Summer Court in an undisclosed role. To mortals, she may seem carefree and naive - a result of her unfamiliarity with mortal concerns, especially those involving modesty.

Tarvald Steelfist grew up in Emerald Run - his talent for artifice earned him an apprenticeship under enchanter Beckenhower, who became both mentor and father figure. Inspired by Chand, Tarvald forged his arcane armor and was later sent to Cinderburg for the Eldersoul Festival.
