As asked by them, I arrived in Hadrian. And as asked by them, I have started threading Her veil upon the town...
Subject: Igna
Raised by her grandfather, who trained her in combat mastery. Her father was meaningless.
Her burden:Guilt. having left her beloved grandfather in order to pursue her freedom and to escape militia.
Subject: Xavier
A tiefling. A loner.
His burden: outcast, his pride hurt for others not helping nor caring about him. Shunned. Distrusted.
Subject:Bosco
His mother abandoned him and his father, who was worthless (a prick, he said).
"Freedom is not only for me, it's for all. And this whole Gods damn world despises freedom. And it will not stand. And the truth I must confront is that freedom will be a bloody birth and that blood will be as much innocent as guilty. And those that stand in my way, they will be brought as close as those that help me. This is also my burden Tyche will decide, but I think the status quo will burn me to cinder. But doing so, it will not be the end. Because this sick society will never last. But those that will stand to it are few, because they know it is a lost cause for this generation".
His burden: Shame. Unloved, uncared. He hides his pain behind laughter and shadows. Romantic worldview. Martyr.
A teacher?
Subject: Aardyn
His own family is tied to the Darkness. How? I do not know. The Dark One. The Dark Aardyns. Hard on the outside, soft on the inside. What does he hide?
Nightmare shared: crabs and shovels.
His burden: unknwown
Keelie. The servant of the Golden God, the loon that randomly hugs, strangles and licks people. She will be his break if something is not done about his affection towards her.
Easily manipulated. To have at least a minimum of intelligence and manage to have a bit of his trust would seem enough to persuade him towards a path or another. I have watched over and over as his position on diverse subjects changed just by talking to others.
Subject: Shea
Her husband, Reuben, died in the war. She fought by his side, but only she survived. Her sons are not with her.
Her burden: Loss. She stands though for her sons, but the death of Reuben will always be a shadow.
Subject: Laura Meslon
Her sire and mother raped and killed. There is a hint of pride on what she did. She speaks of serving a Lady under Her Gift and the schematics of the craft of an iron golem might be part of it. I wonder if I should help her on this or not. Maybe it would be good for her that she fails on this. She seems opportunistic as well. Betrayed a House for another as a better offer was made. Has some conflict with the Arcanist known as Nica.
Has an elven woman as a slave, often seen clad in black
Her burden: Absence and Loneliness. Pride
Subject: Tezza
Sold by his own mother in exchange of Lotus powder to a man. This man was violent and had marked him at young age. He carries the scar of that past upon his face still. Faithless. Thought to be a prick by Bosco. Maybe he reminds Bosco of his own father?
His burden: Not understanding still his deeds under Her veil. Pride and overconfidence upon his own skills
Subject: Burodoc
Former slave. As many other gnomes in the realms, his mother was a breed mare. He killed his former master.
His burden: Loss.
Subject: Arkelos Maelstrom
Past unknown. Current position still unknown.
He is seeking shadow gems.
Aubrey, his pixie companion, is a fragment of a lost fey of Twilight
His burden: Naivety. Easily tricked. Hope. Thinking to be saving Titania, the Fey Queen, he ended releasing the Queen of Air and Darkness and Aubrey, his pixie companion, was trapped into a sword because of it.
Subject: Karl
Former slave, captured by a tribe while still only a kid from Anphilia. He had no contact with other people save from his master. People tend to see him as stupid, he says.
His burden: Loneliness.
Subject: Dominique
Member of the Arcanist Guild. Past unknown to me so far.
His burden: Vanity. Arrogance. He seems too confident about the powers that he has been gathering for so much time and his ego was easily broken as his wards were stripped by the Dark Knight Nathanel Menner with a simple snap of fingers. The old man, unable to reach the Dark Knight, threw a temper tantrum at that and decided to have me as his consolation prize.
Subject: Keelie Nafar
Accordingly to Kuronegro, she has left the Knights of the Lady as her then future husband, Rodregn (Rod) died and wasn't recognized by the Order.
Has a brother, often seen clad in black. (Who is he? What's his name?)
Her burden: Loss. Frustration.
Subject: Nica
"Evil Incarnate", accordingly to Kuronegro. She has summoned a Knight of Amaunator from the realm of the dead and summoned several Balors. She has attempted against the lives of others, innocently or not, even having sabotaged a city trial so to retrieve a tome that would make her capable of summoning an undead army from dirt.
She is seeking shadow gems.
Her burden: Vanity. Ambition.
Subject: Uooboom
The entire of his tribe was killed by humans. He ran away, coward.
His burden: Lack of confidence
Subject: Raul Kuronegro
His friend, Aquaria, was killed with the help of Arcanist Vossk. He does not consider himself a honorable man. He blames himself for not acting when he should. Accordingly to him, he has lost friends twelve years ago because "they did not run fast enough". He hates the empire and the Acanist Guild, although, "since the dath of Snacks, no one has felt courage to stand up against" them. Before it, many Knights of the Lady died trying to stop the Arcanists from creating undead and making rituals to summon demons.
Although being a Knight of the Lady, he freely makes deals with Master Nokin, in Sullivan's Port Crafting cavern.
He believes that Mystryl prefers when magic is used "for its mere beauty rather than as a tool for power and destruction".
He holds grudges with his superiors for they denying his fallen comrades their knighthood. It was needed for him and others to stand up in order for such decision to be overturned.
His burden: Lack of confidence. Cowardice. Hypocrisy. Delusion.
Subject: Urla Duskmane
As her powers awakened for the first time, Urla summoned the dead men of her tribe from their grave. This ended up with her parents exiling as she was still a child. She met a man named Cabal, who she liked a lot. He was killed by a bear.
Her burden: Naivity. Loneliness
Subject: Tor Fensblood
Pride and mouthful priest of Targus. I know not of his past, yet. Always busy stirring others towards conflict and disagreement.
Her burden: Chaos. Pride. Hastiness
Subject: Raven
Does not understand the Gods. She thinks to be free from Their influence and to be able to become a Goddess herself... someday.
She follows Eladar wherever he goes and does. They plan together to organize a war school out of the reach of Hadrian and Valstiir, maybe this being the start of a new settlement.
Her burden: Pride
Subject: Zyrah
Singer of a beautiful voice, afraid of her own talents. She was raised by a man that took her from his threshold and accepted her as a step-daughter, putting her to take care of his house. Recently, being too old, he has grown too sick and cast her away form his home, so she would not be there when he finally died.
Her burden: Lack of confidence. Loneliness. Guilt
