Boyd |
All scary stories feature a horseman who had been hanged, stabbed or even beheaded and now rides by night, intending to exact revenge on his killers. Nonsense, a necromancer would say, a dead man risen by himself cannot have memory or will. It may well be so, but then Boyd has scores to settle not only with the traitor who slayed him, but also with the one who denied him rest in peace. |

Umender |

It is known that he makes engines from some kind of crystals. There are many gossips about the crystals' origins. Some people say that he was using gremlins to mine these crystals and found a never-ending vein of magic crystals. |

Victoria |
Best spellcasters are actually capable of resurrecting dead, but can a soldier who stepped on a mine count on it? Dealing with such an insidious weapon, Victoria did not get the respect of her colleagues, and yet she devoted her life to improving it. The inventor found another use for her knowledge after she met Floribert - making mechanical limbs for crippled soldiers. |

Todd |
Few Bracada scientists have actually seen, let alone handled, a hammer or a furnace. Todd, however, had to learn how to use them, unable to convey his esoteric ideas to blacksmiths and coppersmiths. There was also a scarcity of instruments and materials vital to his research in Bracada; Todd journeyed halfway around the world in search of them before finding what he sought in Burton. |

Agar |
Many thought that the warlock Agar was a madman, and then a dead man. While the latter has been proven incorrect, there is still no unanimity in Enroth's scientific community on the former. Indeed, Agar's creations are undeniably viable and functional - but could a scientist in his right mind think of instilling such nasty inclinations and proclivities in a living being? |

Bertram |
Few dwarves are capable of not just making a fortune, but also of making it work. Bertram left his father's house as soon as his beard grew two fingers long. Wandering around Antagarich, he grew fabulously rich through investing in al chemical and magical ventures. His gold paid for the embodiment of many ideas that today underpin Burton's power. |

Celestine |
The AvLeean druid, who had lost his grove, traversed the world, imparting knowledge on anyone who sought it. He left the secrets of natural magic and his daughter Mirlanda in Tatalia, while in Eeofol, Celestine was born, inheriting another facet of his talent. Her father taught her how to tame the most violent beasts, offering them friendship, rather than the Tatalian beastmasters' trademark ruthless treatment. |

Dury |
Dury spent the longest time in search for a magician who would not just promise to, but actually eliminate the repercussions of wounds she had sustained in dozens of clashes. One excellent blacksmith was able to forge a siertal plate to replace the part of her skull caved in by a wyvern's tail, and the mercenary now values fine armor far more than any magical malarkey. |

Eanswythe |
According to hearsays, it was Eanswythe who concocted the potion that poisoned Regna's first emperor Hareck before fleeing for Jadame. If that is indeed the case, then she must be at least 6 centuries old. Ordinary people don't live that long, and whoever this enigmatic crone is, everyone knows: she merely has to raise an eyebrow to make even those most formidable solders drop their swords and spears. |

Frederick |
Frederick has been living the life of an ordinary Bracadian mage and alchemist, even if he has been a bit more curious than his fellows.

Sam |
Since ancient times, earth oil has wreaked havoc on the farmers of Jadame, erupting in fountains and laying waste to their crops and pastures.

Her inventions made earth oil into Burton's blood, food, and arms. |

Tancred |
Back in his alchemist days, Tancred discovered an ancient recipe for a concoction that exploded without the use of magic. To his great dismay, the crucial component - saltpeter - was nearly entirely absent from Antagarich. Only in Jadame did Tancred discover vast caves full of this rare element and perfect the design of the arquebus that hurls tiny bullets with this awesome power. |

Tavin is barely the only halfling who joined the army of Erathia. Other halflings disapprove his way of living as these creatures do not like adventures. however, his folks respect Tavin, even if they fear a bit and tend to avoid him.

Wynona |
Jadamean dark elves' natural element is the towns and deserts they cross with their caravans. Wynona, however, had always preferred exploring the wilderness outside Alvar and the Murmurwoods, tracking animals and taking notes of their habits.

Ziph |
Ziph had long served as a maid to an old mage who looked down on her and her kin. The wizard had no idea that ''ziph'' meant ''freedom'' in Gremlish, much less did he suspect that she was listening in on his lectures. One day, Ziph crammed half of her master's lab into a magic bag, hid in a ship's hold, and fled Bracada for good. |
