User Image

Markings/Tattoos:
I've got a tattoo on the small of my back of black a sunburst.

Primary Talent(s) (max two!):
Coercer, Teknoguilder

Secondary Talent(s) (max three!):
Beastspeaker

Talents' Description:
Curiously immune to empathy, Blair has the makings of a powerful coercer, she also has a deep affinity for unanimated objects and adores researching into obscure realms of knowledge. Though she has applied to the Coercer guild, she has been told the the Teknoguild would equally welcome her talents.
Her beastspeaking ablility is slight and mainly connected to her associate, one fat white rat known as 'Milord'.


Advancement Level:

* stamina: 5
* power: 5
* range: 2
* subtlety: 3


Weapons:
Hand-to-hand fighting.

Country/Place of Origin:
Sutrium

Personality/Bio:
I was born in Sutrium to doting, if unwise, parents and have never bothered about traveling anywhere, content to while away my time reading obtruse writings from all sorts of wierd people. After the rebellion of the Council, Sutrium isn't half bad, if what my parents say is true. I don't remember much about the Rebellion, nothing, in fact, since I was born five years after.
My folks run a hospice on Main Way near the gates of the city. Got a couple of Talented healers here, straight from Obernewtyn, don't'cha know.

It was suggested to me to travel to Obernewtyn by a friend of the family, one Kella. Nice lady. A healer. And an empath too, apparently, though that means little to me. She was rather shocked to find out that that 'Talent' of hers has little to no effect on me. I hear that has been unheard of until now. After some deliberation, I've decided to take up her offer, especially after she told me about the teknoguilder caves.

After arriving at Obernewtyn I was a bit shocked to find just how big the place is and how many people live here. A right proper city in its own right, really. My abilities were tested, like they do to everyone, and again I had to wait until my examiners calmed down about my immunity to empathy. It was rather funny. Some people take so long to come to an obvious conlusion. They told me to pick which guild I'd like to join as a novice. It was dibbs between the coercers and the teknoguilders. I had to consult Milord, and he suggested that I chose the coercers, with one foot in at the teknoguilders.

This was one of Milord's best ideas to date...

I am inclined towards depression, but I can sing and dance practically any and all popular songs in the Land. Go figure. I'm told I also have the rather annoying tendency of talking and referring to Milord in the third person. Get used to it, sweetheart.

Likes:
* Reading
* Combat Practice
* Secret places

Dislikes/ Hates:
* Winter
* Slugs and snails
* Idiots

Dreams:
Perhaps one day I might actually be a Guildmistress...nah, what am I on about? Let's keep things real, shall we?

Theme Song
Running Up That Hill; Placebo

Anything Else?:
I'm usually seen with my pet white rat. Yes, you heard me: a big white rat. Answers to the Milord, don't know why...

User Image

Markings/Tattoos:
None

Primary Talent:
Beastspeaker, Farseeker

Secondary Talent:
Coercer

Advancement Level:

All beginners have 32 points to 'spend' on the following in terms of their talent:

* stamina: 4
* power: 4
* range: 4
* subtlety: 3


Weapons:
Hands

Country/Place of Origin:
The Highlands, Darthnor

Personality:
I like to think of myself as an easygoing, friendly kind of person. We highlanders are a hardy bunch, and can usually take whatever life throws at us. Like I said, I’m friendly, but if other people can’t be bothered to be friendly towards me, then I won’t waste my time with them either. Life’s too short to waste time with unkind people. I love performing, but that takes on more of a physical nature. If I find myself with lots of people listening to what I’m saying, I tend to get a wee bit nervous and stumble over my words.

Though I came to Obernewtyn as a young teenager, I stubbornly refused to let my Highland accent slip. The Highlands are a part of who I am, and my speech shows that. I am proud of my home, and my mountains

Likes:
Performing
Mountains
Chatting

Dislikes/ Hates:
Unfriendly people
Meat eaters
Talking in front of large crowds

Dreams:
My dream is to be doing what I am now! As part of the Magi, I can travel about the land, performing as I will. I’d like to travel more.

Theme Song
(Coming...)

History/ Bio: I’m a highlander, born and bred. I was a teenager when I first came to Obernewtyn, but I am able to visit my parents frequently due to their relative closeness. My primary Talents are Farseeking and Beastspeaking, and I have a small Coercing talent, too. Despite my relative lack of talent in the Coercing area, I’m part of the Magi, the group of performers made up primarily of Coercers and some Empaths who travel about the land performing. When the group first started they had to disguise themselves as gypsies, but now that the land is free, we don’t have to hide the fact that we are from Obernewtyn.

My parents run an orchard in Darthnor, and that’s where I learnt a lot of my acrobatic abilities. The trees were my playground, and I used to bother the workers when I was small with my climbing. Living in the orchards is also how I discovered my Beastspeaking ability. I was cavorting around the streams one day when I made friends with a young otter. He was hard to talk to at first, but as we came to know each other better communication became easier. I later learnt that wild animals are much harder to communicate with that those who have been raised in proximity with humans, so I was lucky to be able to talk to him at all.

A thumb-print sized birth mark on her left shoulder (she calls it her 'devil's mark')

Empathy

Secondary Talent:
Farseeking

Advancement Level:



* stamina 3
* power 3
* range 4
* subtlety 5



Weapons:
A well-aimed kick

Country/Place of Origin:

hides an interior that is strong-willed and defiant. Quick to make friends, she is
equally quick to create enemies.

Acting

Reading
Literal people

Her boobs
Being called a carrot top (it's the carrot's bottom that's red!)
The slush that happens after snow melts
Being told to make a split second decision


Dreams:
To become a renowned actress.


Theme Song
Lily Allen: F U


History/ Bio:
Even though Peighton was born in one of the outlying villages, she moved to
Sutrium when she turned twenty-one to fulfill her dreams of becoming an actress.
The acting community of Sutrium, however, was less than enthusiastic about her
talents. After a month of unsuccessful auditions she finally resorted to waitressing
as a way to pay her rent. This did nothing to quell her desire. In fact, she used her
time between orders to study the interactions between people, eying closely the
way they reacted to certain events and news, and locking herself away in the
kitchen after hours to practice the dialogues she'd heard during the day.
After spending a year at the restaurant, she got fed-up enough to give acting
another go and went to audition for a local play. To her surprise she was picked.
The time she spent practicing payed off, and her role was a hit. After that she
had no problem getting new parts to play, and once even had someone recognize
her in the streets (okay, it was someone from her home village, but she'd gotten
so good at acting, that she had no problem pretending otherwise).
Every now and again while on the stage, she'd feel that she could judge the exact
pitch of the audience's attention and act accordingly, winning them back quickly
when their attention began to waver. She put this down to being sensitive.
During a tour of a more-successful-than-usual play, the Company passed by
Obernewtyn. Being of an inquisitive nature, Peighton left the company of her fellow
actors to take a closer look at the much rumored misfit inhabitants.
Being less than subtle with her entrance, however, she bumped (literally) into
Blair Hammonay, who was walking the outer grounds, apparently lost in thought.
Unable to come up with a speedy lie to explain her presence, she did what she
always did when unable to get her thoughts straight. She told the truth (i.e. that
she was snooping).
After a somewhat shaky start, her relationship with Blair strengthened into an
unlikely friendship, and by the time it came for the Company to leave, Peighton
had already made up her mind to stay, as Blair had quickly convinced her that
her 'sensitivity' might be something more.
Though immersed in building her power to it's full potential, Peighton still practices
her acting and dreams of becoming famous.

Name:
Dorian Sidgewick

But you can call me:
Rian, Wick

Height:
188cm

Weight:
74kg


Age:
28


Appearance:
User Image


Markings/Tattoos:
none


Primary Talent:
Coercer

Secondary Talent:
Technoguilder

Advancement Level:


* stamina 5
* power 5
* range 1
* subtlety 4


Weapons:
none (he's completely useless when it comes to combat)

Country/Place of Origin:
Sutrium

Personality:
Despite his being older then most of the other misfits at Obernewtyn, he is arguably
the most childish, often joining in on the younger misfits' pranks.
When not using his talents as a coercer to influence people, he uses his charms
(which he believes are considerable) to get what he wants.


Likes:
Pranks
Machines
Controlling others


Dislikes/ Hates:
Empaths
Drama queens/kings
Being told that he's wrong


Dreams:
Takes his days one at a time and does not concern himself with the future.


Theme Song:
Frank Ferdinand: Walk Away


History/ Bio:
Born and raised in Sutrium he was an only child (to his great chagrin, as he would
have loved to have had a partner to his 'crimes'), spending his days doing what
he considered to be 'help' in his parents' store. When he was twelve his father
made the questionable decision of leaving him in charge of the grocery while
he went to make a quick delivery. A customer coming in, asked for yeast.
Jumping off his stool, he ran back to the storage room only to find that they'd run
out. Thinking quickly, he grabbed whatever was nearest to him and went back
out front, placing it in front of the customer, saying that it was yeast. After looking
confused, the customer had payed and left. Elated, Dorian continued to experiment
with making people see things that weren't really there and found, to his extreme
delight, that this ability of his got better with use. Unfortunately, he was less than
discreet while trying them out. Customers and passers-by soon began to look
askance at the young boy behind the counter, wearing his father's apron and giving
them long stares. Three months after his initial discovery, two men came and told
his parents that Dorian had been asked for by Obernewtyn.
