Trace Legacy

Gender: Male
Age: 24
Class: Grand Templar
Species: Human

Personality: Trace is usually friendly, shy, and a little naive. However, his personality changes drastically whenever he recalls past memories.

Trace was born into a poor family of farmers, but his talents in magic were quickly recognized and at a young age he was recruited into the Templar. He rose through the ranks and eventually took over the organization as Grand Templar following the death of his first wife. He quickly became known as a tyrant, feared by Humans and Keidran alike. His incredible power allowed him to dominate all those who opposed him.

However, his memories were stolen from him, along with his deep-seeded hatred for Keidran. He now travels alongside Flora, a Keidran he befriended in ignorance to the ways he once thought of them. However, his memories are slowly returning, and with them a knowledge of a past he'd rather have remain forgotten.

Flora of the Rainforest Tiger Tribe

Gender: Female
Age: ~11
Species: Tiger Keidran
Languages: Keidran, Human

Personality: Flora is outgoing and strong-willed, but also a romantic. Since childhood her dreams have been of finding a "true love."

Flora was born in the southern rainforests of her tribe. However, at the age of three her home was attacked by slave traders. Her parents were killed and she was sold into slavery. Flora was lucky enough to be purchased by a friendly human family, who treated her more like a daughter then a slave. Thus, Flora recalls her days of slavery with an unusual fondness. She has no memory of the day her tribe was attacked.

Flora eventually was allowed by her human family to return to her people. Due of her knowledge of human nature and language, she was chosen to be a representative of the Tiger Clan and a marriage was arranged between her and a prince of the Wolf Clan. The arrangement fell through, though, when her caravan was attacked. She was saved from the human attackers by Trace, who had just recently lost his memories.

Keith Keiser

Gender: Male
Age: 19
Class: Banished Warrior
Species: Eastern Basitin

Personality: Keith acts serious or indifferent most of the time. However, deep down he's really caring and protective.

Keith was born on the Basidian Islands, a large landmass located near the mainland. His father was a General of the military. His mother was a soldier, just like all Basitins, but she sheltered him from military life for much of his childhood. Like all Basitins, he did eventually join the military at 8 years of age, late for most Basitins. Keith was blamed for his parents death at the age of 13 and banished from the islands. He was ordered not to return until he brought back the Grand Templar.

Natani of the Border Forest Tribe

Gender: Female
Age: ~13
Class: Magi Brother Assassin
Species: Wolf Keidran
Sexuality: Bi-sexual

Personality: A very confused wolf.

Natani was forced to live homeless with her brother after her parents and tribe were destroyed by human Templars. She eventually disguised herself as a male and, along with her brother, joined an assassins guild to make ends meet. Due to an accident during an assassination mission, Natani became magically and permanently linked to her brother, and much of her brother's male personality overpowered her own. Though she realizes her body is female, she has convinced herself she is really male.

Natani has never had a formal education and is thus illiterate. She cannot write in any language, and can only speak Keidran. She can only understand a few human words. Thus, Natani will often find herself left in the dark during conversations between species.

Raine

Gender: Female
Age: ~18
Species: Human / Keidran

Personality: In Human form, Raine is a shy and slightly naive young girl. However, due to lack of experience as a Keidran, Raine can sometimes lose herself to the wild nature of her other form.

Raine is the daughter of the former Grand Templar. She was born under unusual and unnatural circumstances, and as a result possesses unpredictable magical power. The wild nature of her magic causes her to experience physical transformations between Keidran and Human forms. These transformations are usually kept in check by artifacts enchanted to suppress her magic. Throughout her life, Raine's mother has kept her Keidran form a secret from others in the Templar order, and even Raine herself. But as Raine matures, her bestial side becomes increasingly restless from years of suppression.

Laura of the Coastal Fox Tribe

Gender: Female
Age: ~16
Species: Fox Keidran

Personality: Laura has very little self-confidence. She is timid, shy, and emotionally fragile. She tries to avoid conflict and always be polite.

Laura's family found Keith washed ashore behind their house after he had been banished. Laura fell in love with Keith and they were to be married, however, events conspired against them and Keith ended up leaving and heading into human territory, where she couldn't follow. After several years, she decided to seek out Keith in the only way she knew how: by traveling to the islands of the Basitin.

Saria au Gruhen

Gender: Female
Age: N/A
Species: Human

Personality: Saria is soft-spoken and usually shy, but not afraid to speak out when she needs to.

Saria was a middle-class daughter of a blacksmith. She learned from an early age to take care of herself. She prefers to work for herself, and has never relied on the help of slaves. Her father brought her to the Templar Academy to work on building armor for the Templars. It was there where she met and fell in love with Trace. They were happily married for a year. However, their marriage was short-lived.

Eric Vaughan

Gender: Male
Age: 20
Species: Human

Personality: Eric likes Keidran. That sums it up pretty nicely.

Eric was born into a noble family. He is extremely wealthy, but he tries to stay modest about his money. Eric has a great affinity for Keidran, and uses his vast wealth to purchase a variety of Keidran slaves in cities all over the mainland. Eric is very well-read, but he specializes in Keidran anatomy and physiology. Eric treats all his slaves very well, and most are eternally devoted to him, despite being enslaved.

Kathrin "Spots" Vaughan

Gender: Female
Age: ~10
Species: Mixed Breed Keidran

Personality: Kathrin has a happy-go-lucky personality. She is a bit naive about most things, having been sheltered as a slave all her life.

Kathrin was selectively bred from several generations of Keidran slaves in order to be more physically appealing to humans. Ironically, despite being designed to be a sex slave, Kathrin is incredibly naïve when it comes to sex. Eric gives her much more freedom than his other slaves, but she genuinely enjoys serving him.

Mike of the Coastal Fox Tribe

Gender: Male
Age: ~12
Class: Slave
Species: Fox Keidran

Personality: He used to be perfectly satisfied with his lot in life, until the fateful day he came across a black-magic-wielding Basitin.

Personality: A typical Keidran slave.

Maren Taverndatter

Gender: Female
Age: 20
Class: Tavern Maid
Species: Human

Personality: Maren is bossy and prefers to have things go her way.

Maren is the bossy elder of the Taverndatter sisters. She's one of Trace's current "girlfriends," though Trace and her were never seriously involved. They met at her tavern as Trace was passing by during his missions. She knew Trace still loved his wife, who had passed away years before; and she knew she was really just being used by Trace as a momentary distraction. But she stayed with him, nontheless.

Karen Taverndatter

Gender: Female
Age: 16
Class: Tavern Maid
Species: Human

Personality: Karen is outgoing and excited; she hates being bored and will go out of her way to make things interesting.

Karen is the hyperactive younger of the Taverndatter sisters. She doesn't care about races or wars or religions. She just enjoys interesting stuff, and if nothing interesting is happening, she tends to cause it. Karen's extra set of Keidran ears were given to her as a curse by Trace, whom she was annoying. The curse backfired, however, when Karen decided she loved the ears and wanted to keep them.

Lady Nora

Gender: Female
Age: ~2000
Class: Shape-shifter
Species: White Dragon

Personality: Nora enjoys meddling in the affairs of mortals.

Lady Nora is a little over 20 centuries old, making her one of the oldest and largest dragons of her time. Unlike most dragons, who take little interest in mortals, she enjoys watching Humans, Keidran, and Basitin feud with one another. She will usually only interfere with them to see what might happen. Nora can shape-shift, but she has trouble balancing on two legs. Because of this, she generally only shapeshifts into other four-legged animals, and rarely shapeshifts into a humanoid form.

The Master Templars: Master Spy, Architect, Strategist, Seer, and Mage.

Class: Master Templars
Species: Human

These five men were employed by Grand Templar Trace to keep order in the Templar after he took over. He had them replace the previous six Master Templars of the previous Grand Templar.

Trace was born into a pathetic family of farmers, but his obvious natural talents in magic were quickly recognized and at a young age he was recruited into the Templar. He rose through the ranks and inevitably took over the organization as Grand Templar following the death of his first wife.
