				OOC thread, for game discussion.<br><br>Name: Marcus Shahrizai<br>Originally from Morbhan in Kusheth<br>Nationality: D'Angeline<br>Gender: Male<br>Age: 22<br>(https://elliquiy.com/elluiki/images/f/fc/060b1934c66c286dbe4dab1b92e3b212--black-hair-blue-eyes.jpg)<br><br><strong>Background</strong><br>Marcus was born and raised in Kusheth, and fostered with House Morhban in the Pointe d'Oeste under the Duc de Morhban. He received all the elements of a classical education due a D'Angeline noble, proving himself a reasonable student in most things. Perhaps his finest skill lay with riding and horseflesh, and he was a frequent visitor to the Hippochamp, bargaining with the Tsingani for their finest horses. It was from a friendship with a young Tsingani woman, Anaia that he learned the rudiments of lockpicking, the two of them amusing themselves with shackled play, though she would not allow him to prize he truly sought from her. <br><br>Anaia's uncle, leader of their kumpania was less than pleased by their dalliances, and threatened to sell his horses elsewhere if they continued. Knowing Marcus's nature would not accept this, he was sent to Marsilikos, nominally to look after family trade matters. Knowing little about such matters, Marcus was left much to his own devices and pleasures, a situation that suited all concerned.<br><br>(Will fill the rest in after confirming character links / backstory)<br><br><strong>Talents and skills</strong><br>Fair with a rapier<br>Fair huntsman (mainly bow and falcon)<br>Family name/wealth / Familiarity with high society<br>Skilled rider<br>Educated / Languages (read, write and speak) - D'Angeline, Aragonian, Alban, Caerdiccan, Old Tiberian<br>Some skill at picking locks<br><br><strong>Flaws</strong><br>Noblesse Oblige<br>Code of honour<br>Tendency towards light sadism, flirts a lot (especially when he shouldn't)<br>Fierce temper when pushed too far<br>Hedonistic, and fond of the finer things (which naturally cost more)<br>Stubborn<br><br><strong>Equipment</strong><br>Rapier and belt dagger<br>Fine leather jacket (will do as light armour)<br>Hunting bow and 40 arrows<br>Backpack, Bedroll, Belt Pouch, Flint &amp; Steel, Hooded Lantern with three pints of Oil, Trail Rations for seven days, Waterskin, Wineskin and a Whetstone<br>Signet ring and personal jewelry<br>50 ducats (gold)<br>Hidden away in saddlebags - Fine quality rope, set of leather / metal shackles, lockpicks<br>Good quality clothing

Frequent escapes from her room to explore the world ended up with Lora learning the art of lock picking and stealth.<br><br>When her parents were killed by armed intruders, Lora took to the streets and stole food to keep alive. One Camlach swordmaster noted her agility and took her in to learn the art of swordplay and maybe make a name for herself at tornaments. Years of grueling training and considerable talent coupled with her natural agility made Lora superb with a blade and frequently she was ranked in the finalists when tornaments occured. The money she won by being a finalist many times was enough for her to secure a horse named coal and high quality adventuring gear and be tutored in the art of horse riding and mounted combat as well as throwing knives, then her mind turned to the world and sort to explore its wonders, uncovering lost treasures and solving mysteries.<br><br>Talents and skills<br>Sword (superbly skilled),throwing daggers,stealth,riding,mounted combat,pick locks,healing kit use,rope use<br><br>Flaws<br>Is bad at basic math, can often be cheated in transactions involving money.<br>Specialised with swords, she is not a very good fighter if a sword or dagger isnt in her hand.<br>Is trained for tornaments, meaning she doesn't dirty fight, and dirty tactics can suprise and overwhelm her.<br>Is prone to sulking if she doesn't get her way, this can go on for hours and she is miserable company when it does.<br><br>Equipment<br>Worn: High quality Leather boots and leather gloves,leather leggings and cotton shirt and leather jacket (acts as light armor)<br>Weapons: Superb quality Bastard Sword, trio-of-throwing-daggers,small sturdy knife<br>In pouches:coin pouch (35 gold), lockpicks,flint and steel,healing kit,sharpening stone,vermin repellant<br>In packpack: An assortment of maps, silk Rope and grapple,1 week of rations,3 waterskins,lantern and 3 x oil flasks<br>In saddlebags: bedroll,blanket,1 x week of horsefeed,horse care kit, extra 3 water skins,vanity kit,hygenine kit,mess kit

Still perhaps it was this magic or perhaps it was the plague who finnaly got the old man but one way or another he suddenly died and she didn't want to either be accused and jailed or sold to another master. Camila quickly registered his things and got for herself a handful bag of coins, the thickest of his books and what seemed to be a couple of ceremonial daggers together with her own belonguings and fleed the house seeking a better destiny.

				I work 12 hrs a day, 4 days a week, and mostly post on days off, so strict posting order can be a problem for me, if you want to keep things flowing smoothly. So long as we don't fall into the trap of everyone waiting on someone else to post, no order should be fine.<br><br><strong>Name:</strong> Moash Teft<div class="floatright">(https://s17.postimg.org/iqh3yvlkf/Moash.png)</div><br><strong>Race:</strong> Naturalized Skaldi<br><strong>Gender:</strong> Male<br><strong>Age:</strong> Who's counting?<br><br><strong>Background</strong><br><br>Instantly pickable as a foreigner, Moash lacks the graceful beauty that so often marks a d'Ange. He is squat and solid, and even stronger than he looks, the running joke being that he is descended from a troll. He has a square jaw, a flattened nose that has been broken many a time, and hazel eyes. He keeps himself clean shaven, both to ensure there is nothing to grab in a brawl, and because with his male pattern baldness, anything else would just look stupid.<br><br>Moash wasn't always the surly, hardened man he is today. When he first came to Terre d'Ange, he was an idealistic youth, with a pretty young wife, looking for a better life. He found himself a job as a lawman, a dangerous, but respectable living. Then his wife ran off with a noble, and he was left to pick up the pieces. To make matters worse, the nobleman, deciding Moash was an eyesore, arranged for him to be reassigned to the frontier, basically a death sentence, albiet a slow one. His wife's betrayal left him with a festering resentment towards both nobles, and women, and with the strife that followed, he never really had a chance to get past it. <br><br>Life on the frontier is very different to that of the more civilized cities.Out there, in the lawless fringes,&nbsp; he&nbsp; did whatever it took to keep the order, and prevent things spiraling into chaos, often required to step outside of the letter of the law. He lost many a colleague through those years, developing a fairly cynical view of humanity in the process. It's hard to care when you're caught between common folk behaving like animals, and nobles who are either corrupt, incompetent, or both. Like so many others, he just did the best he could.<br><br>His reward? The brass claimed his methods were too brutal, that he was too willing to bend the law, and kicked his ass to the curb. Ungrateful pricks. Ever since, he's been making a living as a mercenary, doing whatever needs done, so long as the price is right. <br><br><br><strong>Talents and skills</strong><br><br>- Master brawler and dirty fighter<br>- Highly capable armed and unarmed<br>- Trained lawkeeper <br>- Smarter than he looks<br>- Physically powerful<br><br><strong>Flaws</strong><br><br>- Horses disagree with him<br>- Hardheaded<br>- Pragmatic to a fault<br>- Can be uncaring and downright cruel<br><br><strong>Key Equipment</strong><br><br>Worn: Light steel plate armour over sturdy padded leather, designed to protect the important bits while still allowing freedom of movement. <br>Weapons: No nonsense shortsword, truncheon, knuckle dusters, his head<br>On belt: Coinpurse(nearly empty), small knife, several lengths of sturdy cord, hipflask<br>Other: Sturdy leather boots, well worn.<br>Pack: Spare clothing, tarnished watchman's badge, grooming supplies, oilskins, large waterskin, emergency kit(A bottle of moonshine).

				Easiest way around that is after a couple of days silence, just post in the OOC thread and see what the story is. I know life can get busy enough at times that posting has to fall by the wayside.

				Um, I really don't think Camila would have shared that much about her past. Sure they would she is an alchemist and probably that she dabbles into magic as well but not about his master, what he used to do to her and how he died.

				I'd say bits, but not all of it. You're not likely to reveal deep, dark secrets to someone you've known only a relatively short time. Or I wouldn't, anyway :)
