Ferrathyn Elvannon


(Played by Gillfrost)

Elf Avenger, Favored Soul, Chosen

Biography: Born ______. Ferrathyn hails from the great city of Thenedrin, capitol of Shenvelir far to the south. When he was born, Shenvelir was ruled by Shimrod of the Aldaran family. Shimrod was infertile and therefore the next leader of Shenvelir was going to be selected by a great tournament following his death. Each house of nobility was able to choose one fighter to participate with the hopes of becoming the King of Shenvelir.

From Ferrathyn's birth the noble Elvannon family knew of the eventuality of the tournament and thus they trained him to fight. As Ferrathyn grew close to the fighting age of 18 he was widely known as the best young solo fighter in Shenvelir. But only months before his 18th birthday King Shimrod died. The tournament was held and much to his chagrin Ferrathyn wasn’t allowed to participate. His spirit utterly broken, Ferrathyn left Shenvelir and headed north to seek adventure and a place where he could put his fighting skills to use.

Yirgauk Degginkin
(Played by David W.)

Goliath Warden, Goliath Juggernaut, Unyielding Sentinel

Biography: Born AB 2088. Yirgauk hails from the Degginkin Clan, a group of nomadic goliaths who call the Grand Guard Mountains home. According to the rites of Degginkin, each and every clan member must face a series of competitors in what is called Kargen. During Kargen, initiates must face other members of the clan in hand-to-hand combat in succession of their clan rank, up to the current leader of Degginkin. The initiate does not have to win at each competition, but only challenge each one in immediate order, with no breaks in between. If the initiate manages to get through Kargen still standing, he or she becomes a Hokken, a member of the elite martial unit of Degginkin. Yirgauk never became a Hokken.

During his Kargen, he killed another Hokken named Gontor, which is absolutely forbidden according to the Degginkin rites and results in an immediate exile from the Grand Guard Mountains. While Yirgauk rarely speaks of this absolute dishonor, he maintains that his actions were in self-defense, and that Gontor would have killed him had he not defended himself. This was 18 years ago. Since then Yirgauk has traveled all over the continent of Gignes, honing his primal skills and perfecting his physical fitness. With a band of other heroes, he has seen many adventures and has defended his friends from harm. Recently, his adventures have led him to the Vale of Lost Memories, a humble valley surrounded by the very mountains from which he has been exiled for nearly two decades.
