Carlin Team

Gwendolyn Jenkins
Played By: Harlequin Gwendolyn
Sex: Female
Race: Half-Elf
Age: 17
Height: 5�7��
Occupation: Harlequin for the Whitinshire Circus
Weapons: Dagger

Appearance: Gwendolyn being the daughter of a human and elf is undoubtedly beautiful; with sand-blonde hair; pale skin and blushing cheeks. She normally paints two red circles on the tips of her cheeks for performances (which she has gotten into the habit of wearing when outside acting) and deep, deep purple mascara. Around her forehead strung is a strange amulet hung with golden disks and beaded string.
A beautifully designed blouse; white with blue frills, stitched as lilies; daises and a large array of plants and twirls. Her skirt is a combination of green and red with patterns inlay and a silken belt. Strung to this belt are a ornamented dagger and tambourine given to her by her father and mother respectively.

Personality: And quiet and reserved young lady, a tad unusual for one working in a Circus, especially one as spectacular and fantastic as the Whitinshire Circus.

History: Born to Mister Abraham and Bella Jenkins of the Whitinshire Circus - a famous carnival of epic proportions - Gwendolyn grew up in a hasty and most exciting environment, consorting with some of the most unusual folk and seeing the strength of the Thaian Empire to the beauty of the dense jungles of Darama.
Just as several patrons of the Circus predicted (Mister and Mrs Jenkins would tune out at such conversations) Gwendolyn would grow up to be a heart breaker. Many a young man came to the Circus nightly while it was in their town just to see the mystifying and exotic jester whom was Gwendolyn - she turned every man down.
Then, just last year on a boat to Ankrahmun to perform for the Grand Vizier, the Circus - her parents included - went missing without a trace. Gwendolyn, fortunately, had remained in Carlin with a fellow member who was suffering from consumption at the time.
To this day the disappearance of the Whitinshire Circus remains a great mystery which Gwendolyn, with the help of acquaintances of her parents - hope to solve.

Carlin city call for warriors she thinks for her self. She remember her grandfathers story about the conflict between Thais and Carlin. Her grandpa had been one of the Thaian workers who was sent up north to build a new city but he later became a defender of the town. In his days he had both been fighting Red legions and Orcs and he was one of few males who had received a Medal of Honor from Carlin's first ruler Marlinda.
Yes her grandpas adventures was really something, she use to dream about them when she is working on the farm.
Now she saw her chance to take part in something great and exciting but her parents wouldn't understand they would never lend her money to the trip or equipment and her grandpa had nothing in his pocket, though she looked at him to get his approval and he silently nods.

Thais Team

Zavzor
Played By: Rellix
Sex: Male
Hometown: Thais
Occupation: Adventurer, Explorer, and nomad.
History: One day, I decided to visit a place I call: the Plains of Havoc.
I met a couple of cyclopes and several minotaurs; who were showering me with bolts from afar, while rushing at me with their battle axes. I took them down easily, but I knew this was just the beginning.
I continued and met a demon skeleton, accompanied by skeletons and ghouls. I kept away, hurling Heavy Magic Missiles at the demon skeleton. I eventually dropped it, and then easily fended off the rest of the undead.
As I was regrouping from my last battle, I was suddenly taken unaware by a giant spider rushing at me. I was not prepared for this, so it managed to slash my severely with one of its claws. I swiftly dodged further slashes and took out my Sudden Death runes. I shot the Giant Spider a few times and it fell. I now knew this place was not for the faint hearted.
I continued through, slaying the skeletons, minotaurs and cyclopes that came at me. As I was running from a demon skeleton, I sighted an orc. It saw me and alerted its leaders, who quickly ordered their troops to seize me. I tried to fight them off but I knew it was no hope. The berserkers were ready to strike, and the shamans were waiting on the command, but the leaders did not order my death.
I was forced into a dark cave and the leaders threw me some dry bread. I did not know what they were planning. I was in this cave for days, living off stale bread and dirty water. I overheard the higher ranked orcs discussing something to do with someone named "Murius". I was eager to find out what they were talking about, but they stopped talking abruptly when they noticed I was listening to them.

One day I heard some commotion in the cave and some loud bangs. There was a battle. Orcs were flying all over the place and I did not know what was going on. An orc leader rushed into the room, with two other orc leaders trailing behind him. I don't know how, or why I knew this, but I knew that this was Murius. Suddenly an old-looking wizard stormed into the room, accompanied by two young knights. A battle ensued. Just as I thought the humans were defeated, the wizard created a large explosion, and the battle was over. I was freed and I was told to get out of the cave as quickly as I could. I very willingly obliged, and left the cave.
I was led back to an unknown town by my three saviors. They told me this was Thais. I was introduced to the guards, and led to the town's king, King Tibianus. The elder wizard, who I was told is named Marvik, spoke to the King for several minutes and then he told me to "go before my king". The King asked me where I was from and what my job was, and I told him that I had no home and I was an adventurer. After swift deliberation, he declared me a citizen of Thais.
This was my new home, and I swore to protect it with my life.


Gedalot
Played By: Kisfars
Gender: Male
Age: 22
Profession: Legend Seeker
Appearance: Gedalot's untidy white hair and deep turquoise eyes are a rather unussual and amusing combination which attracts attention upon him, his gaze often scares people creating a mystical aura only broken by the few who know his real personality. His face reflects the many adventures his short life has seen and the hunger for even more. Gedalot carries a white mark in his palm which was obtained on his travel to the realm of Alagaesia.

Gear: Gathered from all around Tibia and the lands beyond this realm Gedalot's Gear draws amusement and hope in the faces of anyone who sees him pass. His armor and leg pieces come from a place which only a few have visited and from which almost none have returned , the depths of the elven city Ellesmera in which Gedalot spent most of his childhood with his only brother. His shield was taken from the dead hand of Gulthur the Ruthless, an evil conqueror which had tormented the realm of Terramar for a long, long time. The sword that hangs across his back was forged by the best smiths of the ancient times, a true masterpiece of the human and dwarven smiths along with the strongest elvish magic.

History: Born in Thais, in a noble family house, life was never hard for Gedalot, by the time he was six it was already obvious that he was no normal child as he could already speak over 3 languages including the common language of the realm, Kenya and a fair understanding of the true language, in which all things have their real names.
By the time he turned 14 the only thing holding him from leaving his house to explore the world was his young brother.
When Gedalot turned 15 he had already read all of thais library's books and was known as the best sword user ever born in Thais, his talent was only matched by his brother who prefered axes.
A few months before Gedalot turned 16 his father died, which was a devastating blow to his mother's heart, a few days after she could not stand the pressure and she fled the city runing north towards the outskirts known as Greenshore, Gedalot and his brother followed trying to stop her but it was too late when they arrived at the hill and watched their mother being slaughtered by the marching Orc army which was on the way to destroy Thais.
Gedalot and his brother ran back to Thais leaving a path of tears behind them, and against all odds led the few thaian soldiers into battle and were victorious.
After thais had been saved there was no need for them to remain there and so they left onto a seven year voyage in which they traveled to Alagaesia, Terramar and many other places.
The story of Gedalot and his brother traveling from realm to realm, searching for the legends of each place only to become better theirselves, the story of how they both got the white mark on their right palms and of how they saved uncountable lives will not be told here as it would take many books to be able to describe them.
After years of exploring and "Legend seeking" they settled for around a year at the elvish capital city Ellesmera in which they were accepted as part of the community and taught the secret arts of the elves. Some days ago a messenger arrived at Ellesmera, informing the brothers that their uncle King Tibianus requested their pressence, that he was in need of the bravest and fiercest warriors thais had ever given birth to, for the most dangerous mission.
As this is being written, both brothers are traveling their way back to their hometown to serve their uncle and king and ready for the most tremendous adventures of their lives.


Destroyer of Carlin
Played By: Knight of Caelin
Sex: Male

History: Well me and my family were traveling through Scumtown to get to Folda to see Santy Claus. We were about to leave when a group of people came up to us. They used [flying black missiles] and killed my family, I however escaped down the sewer (the scumtownian [red masked people] didn't know how to use the sewer grate). I made it safely to Kazordoon where I was raised by dwarves. I then moved to Thais and met the King. he dubbed me: Destroyer of Carlin. I swore my duty to damage scumtown. Now heres my chance.


Septalogium
Played By: Kaviglia
Gender: Male
Age: 20
Profession: Flautist
Look: Septalogium's eyes can erase the cutest smile, his big curly, golden 'fro covers him from the tiring sun. Battles have left his face scarred and damaged, but as he says, "what didn't kill me, will only make me worse-looking". If you happen to glance at his hand you'll notice a white mark, just like his brother Gedalot.
Equipment: Due to being the little brother, he has lived basically under the shadows of Gedalot. His equipment, as most things, has always been second handed. Though his brother always kept the good stuff for him, sometimes he let him keep some good equipment, but of course, not as good as his brother's. Something you'll notice from the distance is his axe, that glowing handmade axe, that all mighty axe he's so proud of, taken from one of the ruthless barbarians over at the icy regions.

History: Since we was a boy, he was interested y 3 things: the flute, axing and of course those of the opposite sex, women, his weakness.
At 17 he and his brother got to Ellesmera, he vividly remembers the first day he saw her, sitting outside the town's pub, Andree was her name, with her oceanic blue eyes, dark hair, and a smile that could forge a sword onto a metal door. He was in love. He became a really close friend of andree, but he couldn't be with her, her father wouldn't allow it, "I need a man for my girl, not a boy, come back when you're a man" his father told him.
So he trained and trained that axing skill he loves, to show him what he's capable of. He also fought many unmentionable beasts and undeads from all over the world, only for her, the one and only one, Andree.
The brothers traveled everywhere, fighting dangerous monsters, exploring unseen dungeons, but he had 1 thing in mind, Andree, hoping that days he becomes the man her father wants him to be. Few days ago, a messenger came to Ellesmera, it was from his uncle, King Tibianus, requesting their immediate presence on Thais.
