As they began to approach the surface and the afternoon sun finally hit the faces of the four of them a cheer emerged from the crowd, the entire village was surrounding the elevator with a wide circle. All three families of the current participants were in the center of the circle, along with the other four surviving members of the founders of the village, making five in total with The Elder on the elevator with them who was the chief of the village due to it being his idea to build said village and mine Djin for trade, though the 'Adulthood Mine' is separate from the profit mines as the Djin of this mine make a spiritual connection to people living in the village.<br/><br/>Hīrō village (Japanese for Hero) was founded by five adventurers looking to end there journey and retire, start a family, ect. This island was chosen because they had discovered the Djin on there adventures and figured they could make some profit selling them to other adventurers. The end result was a large village of retired hero's and adventurers working the mines to stay healthy and strong and selling Djin to make money.<br/><br/>As families began to develop a school was created designed to train children for the inevitable day they would leave to go on adventures of there own and the Djin agreed to help in a form of symbiosis, each Djin looking for a more interesting life, picking a child born on the island to watch over and eventually join in adventures. The school on the island teaches everything an adventurer should know, from economics, to swordplay, gun play and even boating and aviation, just in case.<br/><br/>The Elder, a former Barbarian is the man in charge, he chooses to be called The Elder but his actual name is Malsam, he had the idea to build a village and as such was chosen to be the leader. Quite literally he built most of the village with his own two hands, and his earth magic.<br/><br/>The Elders wife, Nei Vallee is an Elvan woman who specializes in wind and light magic and has trained the best shooters the village has known.<br/><br/>Lockwood 'The Legend' Brink, a former thief and pirate specializing in dark magic as well as weapons training, lock picking and various other... less than savory skills.<br/><br/>Vu, a woman born among and named after a Phoenix and a brilliant inventor and fire magic user has raised children of both Lockwood and Crux, she was very skilled at teaching technology and general education.<br/><br/>Crux was a former Bounty Hunter and skilled at water magic.
