[Riverfall] The NPC Creation/Request Thread

[Banickle]

Name: Urvinisic
Race: Akalak
DoB: The 3rd of the Spring Season, 341 AV
PoB: Riverfall, Cyphrus Region
Title: Nakivak Hunter
Skills: Tracking 54; Hunting 43; Riding 31; Weapon: Light Crossbow 30; Poison 26; Weapon: Weighted Net 26
Additional Info: Young and brash, Urvinisic has had many troubles in his life. Neither he nor his other half, Norivek, could truly be considered good people. Where Urvinisic is short tempered and belligerent, the other is apathetic at best. As such, Urvinisic often takes over in situations, because his brother can rarely be bothered. Shortly after Urvinisic had turned 44, he was arrested and tried for petty theft from the city. He faced Woredev Icarvu in the arena, and received two broken bones and extreme humiliation from the man in addition to a season of servitude to the city for his crime. A year later, Urvinisic made an attempt on Woredev's life for the slights regarding his honor. Needless to say, the attempt was foiled and Woredev punished the offender once more. Urvinisic made two more attempts on Woredev, the third culminating in his punisher demanding the council expel him as Cerulean. Now, the Oathmaster has recruited Urvinisic for his tracking and hunting skills to chase down the Nakivak who choose to run. Due to the fact that Nakivak can be tracked via their bracelets, no Nakivak has escaped as of yet.

[Banickle]

Name: Unknown
Race: Human
DoB: Unknown
PoB: Unknown
Title: The Elder, One of Six
Skills: Meditation 85; Observation 80; Teaching 75; Hand to Hand 70; Wilderness Survival: Jungle 65; Unarmed Combat 60
Gnosis: Unknown
Additional Info: Not much is known about The Elder, except for the fact that he brought The Six together, and each one of them respect him greatly. Silent and often smiling, when The Elder is around, he can often be seen peering over those of his group or students they may be teaching. He himself has never taken on a student or disciple, but rather is found offering enlightening advice that sometimes surprises even Tarth. Of The Six, The Elder is the one who is most often absent, going on what he calls his “Pilgrimages” that sees him absent from the group for days on end, the longest of which was an entire year.

Much of The Elder’s life is shrouded in mystery, and it would cause many who stand outside the group to be cautious of him. The rest of The Six, however, trust him implicitly, and none of them have wavered in that trust. If there was a leader among their group, they would consider The Elder the most likely one, and almost a fatherly type of figure to them at times.

[Banickle]

Gnosis: Unknown
Additional Info: Patient, calm and philosophical, Torth is a individual who never seems to be in a hurry. He has spent most of his life to the gathering of knowledge and skills that he feels has helped him find a deeper understanding of himself. Such has lead him to live a very pacifistic lifestyle, where is rarely ever times where he is seen angry or harsh, and for the most part, that also extended to those who would threaten him. More than a few have even heard him talking calmly with people who would take his life, stating with a smile, “I have no desire to bully you.” As such, he has let a majority of those he has had conflict with live, though they may have, after the ordeal, wish they were not alive.

[Banickle]

Name: Dral Roeph
Race: Human
DoB: The 13th of the Summer Season, 475 AV
PoB: Ravok, Syliras Region
Title: Three of Six
Skills: Hand to Hand 95; Drinking 65; Teaching 53; Body Building 42; Rhetoric 38; Wilderness Survival: Forest 23; Intimidation 20; Tattooing 15
Gnosis: Unknown
Additional Info: Stand offish some may call him, abrasive others would. Dral is a human who tends to look adversity dead in the eyes and then spit in its face. Quite often, it has caused people to believe that he is confrontational, but in reality he is a man who lives his life to the fullest whenever he can, even if it means going out and seeking that dangerous thrill from time to time in order to get his adrenalin flowing. This is sometimes countered by his habitual drinking. Though he never seriously appears to be drunk most of the time, he is still just as often found with a drink in his hand, save for when he himself is training or teaching another. The few who have managed to get past his bad habits has found him to be a kind and caring person, to the point that if someone has hurt someone he cares for, they’ll generally have to pull him off of an adversary as he gives in to a bit of his own rage in retribution.

[Banickle]

Name: Isa of the Silent Death
Race: Myrian
DoB: The 6th of the Summer Season, 478 AV
PoB: Taloba, Falyndar Region
Title: Four of Six
Skills: Katana 95; Mace 63; Acrobatics 40; Teaching 35; Unarmed Combat 25; Tactics 23; Tracking 20; Wilderness Survival: Jungle 20
Gnosis: Unknown
Additional Info: Silent and reserved, Isa is not one to engage in witty banter with others. It may be that she feels a little out of place with those she travels with, it could be because of her culture as a Myrian, or it could be that common is just simply not her strong suit when it comes to languages. For whatever reason, it is difficult to tell as even the others she travels with find themselves unable to really form any significant bond, even to the point that she moves off on her own to eat during dinners or breakfast.

Back in her home, however, she is more renowned, having been a prodigy of the blade. To this day she is one of only a few that had managed to last in a one on one spar against Myri for longer than three chimes, and actually forced her on the defensive for three seconds during their spar. For her skill, Myri rewarded Isa by having Taloba’s prime Maledictor craft her a special blade, which would be later be known to be called The Whispering Cut.

For whatever reason Isa eventually left her homeland and began traveling with the current company she kept is not completely known, but it is known that Isa does have care for those she travels with, and respects them highly having faced each one individually to see if they were worthy.

[Banickle]

Name: Lokoril Ironknees Vutros
Race: Isur
DoB: The 72nd of the Winter Season, 470 AV
PoB: Sultros, Kalea Region
Title: Five of Six
Skills: Unarmed Combat 95; Weaponsmithing 66; Carving 52; Body Building 48; Teaching 43; Masonry 41; Animal Husbandry 37; Wilderness Survival: Mountain 15
Gnosis: Unknown
Additional Info: Energetic and straightforward, Lokroil will often be found with a smile on his face, and it is one that others of his group have found to be infectious. Many find it hard to believe at times that he is actually an Isur, as his personality is often contrast to that of his culture, giving a warm greeting to those he meets and is easy to befriend. To his own people, this has made him a bit of a odd person, to the point that many other Isur might call him naïve at best, simpleton most often. His childlike embrace doesn’t waver however, even when he has been betrayed by someone who takes advantage of his openness and in the end he still believes that the world will one day become a better place. When not practicing one of his skills or teaching, Lokroil can often be found warming up to animals or playing with children, as he has a friendly fascination for both, further extending the contrast of warmth that is often reflected among Isur. That, combined with his skills in weaponsmithing may be the reasons why he seems to be the only one Isa seems to warm up to from time to time. If there is one true fault to Lokoril, it is that he has difficulties going easy on someone during training or sparring, even if it is one of his students.

[Banickle]

Name: Yiru Atora
Race: Human
DoB: The 71st of the Winter Season, 476 AV
PoB: Lhavit, Kalea Region
Title: Six of Six
Skills: Unarmed Combat 95; Teaching 75; Running 54; Cooking 42; Acrobatics 38; Medicine 30; Negotiation 27; Wilderness Survival: Coastal 15
Gnosis: Unknown
Additional Info: Fun loving, and a bit of a pervert, it’s easy to see why Yiru was one day banished from the city of Lhavit. While he did have total disciple and devotion in all aspects of his life there as a teacher to a handful of the would be Unarmed Prodigies there, his inability to remain proper around a beautiful woman eventually got him into trouble when he was one day caught fornicating with one of his students. Shamed and disowned, Yiru was forced to leave the city, never to return, or face a mortal punishment. At first, it brought him to a state of depression, and he would often find himself facing off against individuals that he would hope would one day end his life. One day however, he met Torth, and as the two spared for a bit, he found the Jamoura on even ground with him skills wise, while at the same time trying to get Yiru to talk about his death wish. Eventually the fighting stopped, and the two simply took the time to talk. It was then that Torth convinced him to look towards new horizons, and embrace who he was now, rather than cling to the life that would no longer welcome him. The two had been traveling ever since, and while Yiru is often called the “runt” of the six, he takes it in good humor and in them has found a new family. Even if, from time to time, he crosses the line with Isa and often has to defend himself from being beheaded from her blade.

[Rykanis Dakshata]

Name: Ta'nale
Race: Konti
DoB: 3 Spring 430AV(83)
PoB: Riverfall
Title: Kuvay'Nas Guard, Grand Mother
Skills: Intimidation 34, Medicine 38, Observation 43, Shortbow 52, Unarmed Combat 28
Gnosis: Divination: 1 Marked
Additional Info: Born and raised in Riverfall, Ta'nale is loyal to her city through and through, and has only visited Mura once in her life. Earlier in her life she birthed two different Akalak children, the first of which has since had a son of his own. For this she has much respect in Riverfall.

Though many were unsure of her joining the Kuvay'Nas, as it was dangerous, she reasoned she was done bearing children, and she wanted to defend her city. She fights mainly with a shortbow, which was carved on Mura, and is as beautiful as it is deadly.

Ta'nale is a strong willed Konti, at times boisterous and extroverted, but also loving and kind. Her extroverted nature is likely one reason she never fitted in on Mura, and why she fits in so well with the Kuvay'Nas. She is extremely protective of her family. On one occasion when her eldest son was in her group, she was reported to have glared down a Zith that was about to attack him, and scared it so bad that it ran away, giving the rest of her group time to recover and go after it.

[Rinya]

Name: Rhys Wyndlthmal
Race: Akalak
DoB: Winter 37, 461 AV
PoB: Riverfall
Title: Warren Guardsman
Skills: Weapon: Scythe 58, Brawling 32, Observation 52, Social 60, Medicine 45
Additional Info: Rhys himself tends to be the social butterfly compared to his other half, Seymatis. Rhys has no issue trying to sweet talk women, trying to acquire his first Nakivak , or even pull a bad joke. Seymatis on the other hand is near death quiet. He prefers hard battle and usually takes over when patrolling the Warren. Rhys is the more dominant of the two, but Seymatis has no trouble emerging when the going gets tough, and it's usually quite easy to tell which of the two you are dealing with.

[Vanari]

Name: Korin/Amon
Race: Akalak
DoB: Spring 12, 465 AV
PoB: Riverfall
Title: Guardsman
Skills: Lakan 55, Unarmed Combat 48, Observation 30, Cooking 25
Gnosis: ?
Additional Info: Korin is charming, handsome, and bawdy. He will never hesitate to help a person in need--particularly if that person happens to be a maiden. Quick to laugh and happy to be the center of attention, he has no shortage of friends, especially because of the excellent breakfasts he often shares with his fellow guards.

His other half, however, takes all of these traits and adds a darker twist. Amon is impulsive, hot-headed, and devious. When he wants something, there is very little stopping him from getting it. Moreover, his wily ways make it difficult for others to discern which half is which. Often times he will purposely act more like Korin, even if it repulses him to do so, in order to ease others in letting their guards down.

Fortunately, Korin received his second soul fairly early and has almost full control over his unstable half. Though, it is hard to say...who can really know which is which?
