Background: Jareth was born as the 4th of 5 children to a poor woodcutter and his wife. His father, a religious man, wanted one of his children to become a priest and as the youngest male child Jareth was chosen. His father saved every penny to send Jareth to a religious school. With his more common accent and poor clothing, Jareth immediately was targeted as an outsider and picked on by the more wealthy children. After several fights, most of which Jareth won, the headmaster was convinced that the life of a priest was not in store for Jareth. The headmaster took Jareth away to the home of a retired paladin for a more suitable training. Jareth began his tutelage under the older paladin and was set firmly on his path of goodness.
As Jareth turned 20 he was encouraged to see the world and to find his place in it while remembering to protect the innocent, uphold the law and respect the Church.
Appearance: Jareth is a good-looking man with shoulder length dark black hair and a dark beard framing his green eyes. He stands tall with a proud bearing. He is well muscled and walks with a confident ease. Both his hands are calloused from long hours of hard work.
Jareth’s shield, sword and spear are all good quality and very well cared for. His armor is well looked after but lacks any type of ornamentation. Tucked into his belt is a simple hand axe with looks more like a woodsman’s tool than a warrior’s weapon.
Tendencies/Defaults:
Jareth believes in the greater good. He is honest and friendly. He will joke and kid but in the end he will sacrifice everything to uphold the virtues of good. Raised in devotion to the Church he respects the nobility and the royalty but his ultimate allegiance is with the Church. He has not forgotten his background of being poor and he seeks to alleviate the plight of the less fortunate around him. He is unconcerned with money for any type of personal gain. The only possessions he cares for are his hand axe, which was a gift from his father, his holy symbol necklace, which was a gift from the paladin that trained him, and the holy book, which was a gift from the headmaster. Jareth is aware that he does not fit in with upper class people but he is not ashamed of his background.
* If engaged (or threatened to become engaged) in melee combat, how would your character react? Jareth would not strike first as he would attempt to avoid violence. If forced to fight he would offer mercy to any opponent.
* What weapon(s) would they use? He is most comfortable with his sword and shield. If fighting a mounted foe he would use his spear, unless he was also mounted.
* What would cause them to withdraw from combat? Jareth would withdraw in any situation if it was for the greater good of the group so long as no innocent could be hurt. So long as any ally or innocent remained in danger Jareth would not withdraw even if it led to his demise.
* Same for any ranged combat situations. Jareth does not use ranged weapons. If faced against such he would try to close the distance under cover and engage.

In wilderness environment: will act as scout for party
In underground/enclosed environment: will fall back to second ranks and use ranged attacks for as long as possible (will NEVER range into combat where there is a chance of hitting a friendly target).
Standard combat actions: range attack when possible; engage with scimitar and shield when ranged attacks are no longer possible.
Retreat: if a fight looks like it won't turn out well, will call for retreat and then retreat, without waiting to see if anyone else listens or takes a similar action. But he rarely feels like he's going to lose a fight.
Watch: will reluctantly take middle watches at night so casters can get required sleep for spell casting.
* Armor is in effect almost all the time. The day it is dispelled, he studies it the next day.
* If engaged (or threatened to become engaged) in melee combat, Garth would defend himself with a Scimitar. He would withdraw from melee combat and cast.
* Range, cast or sling. Outside Entangle then sling.
* Entangle, Sleep and Magic Missile

Background: Strom is the second born son of a noble family. The Gothel name has be linked with power, wealth and cruelty for generations. Strom should have grown up to be as wicked and cruel as his family but this fate was avoided when his grandmother spirited him away from the clutches of his parents into the care of the Church. It was in the care of a holy order of paladins that Strom was raised. Like a piece of iron being beaten and reformed stronger and stronger, Strom was forged into a soldier of good.
Appearance: Strom is pale with his dark hair cut short on top and shaved close on the sides. His piercing grey eyes and well defined physique show years of hard training preparing him to battle evil in all forms. His clothing and equipment are all well cared for. His armor and weapons are all high quality but show signs of being well used.
Tendencies/Defaults:
* If engaged (or threatened to become engaged) in melee combat, how would your character react? Strom fights with a total single mindedness. When engaged he will fight until he wins or is unable to physically continue. He will spare those who yield but those who do not will be destroyed.
* What weapon(s) would they use? Strom primarily wields a large bastard sword. Depending on his opponents style Strom will fight one-handed with a shield or two handed. He is just as confident in using a mace and shield or even a spear and shield.
* What would cause them to withdraw from combat? Strom will only withdraw if faced with overwhelming odds. If he believes he can prevail, even if it costs him his life, he will stay and fight to the end.
* Same for any ranged combat situations: Strom is capable of using his spear as a ranged weapon although he would prefer to use it set to receive a charge. Although he knows how to use a crossbow he has a aversion to fighting in a way that does not directly use his physical skill and ability.

Default Actions:
If engaged in melee combat or threatened to do so, Fimmion will call for melee support from his group. If no one is around him to assist, he will try to flee far enough to safely cast a spell.
His weapon of choice is his Cookbook.
Fimmion will retreat from combat if the enemy gets too close, without ally support nearby, or if he is outnumbered greatly in a ranged battle, without any cover. If he is by himself, he will be more prone to fleeing, not a man of conflict really.
His favorite spell is Burning Hands (currently).
Will update his memorized spell list and follow group suggestions when needed.
Background
A self-proclaimed expert in culinary magic, Fimmion travels across many lands, compiling recipes of common and rare origins, creating his own even. Many people tend to overlook his magical tendencies because his food is much more of a compelling topic. Many have asked him to settle down in one or two cities, wanting him to open a tavern to serve his delicious foods. Every time though, he respectfully declines, claiming that the life of an adventurer is more suited to his ‘tastes’. He also claims that he is directly inspired by the magical arts of alteration and can only practice them thoroughly out on the field. Only when he completes his personal cookbook, will he consider settling down to the quiet life.
Fimmion, being the unique wizard that he is, has a tendency to read off recipes from his cookbooks when casting certain spells. That’s how he remembers them, through food, not components.

Even a child that receives one bit of praise has the ability to excel in a single talent, and those who receive regular encouragement can feel confidence, achieve success, and become leading members of society. Because they don’t believe they are worthless, they don’t need to raise a fist and have vengeance against fate or the world at large… ~Inspector Lunge

Background & Description
Kendrick is a broad-shouldered, upright man with wavy brown hair, piercing blue eyes, and a jaw that could slice paper.
In Kendrick's opinion, too many holy warriors focus on valor and piety over all else. Kendrick follows a different creed. His church, the Congregation of Avatars, strives to embody the virtues of honesty, compassion, valor, justice, sacrifice, honor, spirituality, and humility. As a holy warrior of that church, he tries at all times to be trustworthy, loyal, helpful, friendly, courteous, kind, obedient, cheerful, thrifty, brave, clean, and reverent.
Kendrick was born to poor dirt farmers, who may have been poor but at least knew that if you're going to farm, you should do it in dirt. He pledged service to the local church, which had little more money than its parishioners. The church quickly found that the ox-strong Kendrick could best serve the church with his blade. For Kendrick, poverty is not just a vow, it's a tradition.

Description and Background (INSERT PHOTO)
Aric Inglorak of the Iron Tribes. Known as Aric Swiftsword
Aric, 18, stands 6'5”, 225 lbs, black hair, blue eyes, chiseled features, muscular but not overly so, and scarred. He is quick in movement, keen of eye, a clever tactician, shrewd strategist, good of heart but dark in vengeance. He gained the tribe nickname Swiftsword for his ability with the sword, the larger the better in his opinion. He is skilled in the traditional barbarian ways but also possesses an unusual curiosity about the world beyond his land, which has led to wanderlust and adventuring.
Aric’s mother passed away several years ago, though his father is alive. He has two brothers and one sister. They stayed with the tribe except his older brother Torac, known as Torac Axecleaver, who left adventuring two years before Aric. Torac would occasionally visit and regale him with stories of the decadent civilizations beyond the Great Woods. He was in part an inspiration for Aric to leave as well, teaching the younger brother barbarian tactics and wily ways to overcome the weak civilized folk, especially those cowardly wizards.
Aric is a member of the Iron Tribes, those Northern Woods barbarian tribes who have mastered the forging of metal. They are often in conflict with their border neighbors to the north, the Mountain Nadhagh, who are jealous of the Iron Tribes metallurgy skills. To the south of the Iron Tribes are the quasi-civilized Vadhagh clans, who have in the past decades slowly been rising out of the barbarian status in their greedy pursuit of commerce with the civilized kingdom south of them. The Vadhagh have little respect for the Iron Tribes (except a grudging acknowledgement of their weapon forging), and even less so for the Nadhagh.
Aric is not particularly religious, but he does pay respects to Crom, god of the northern barbarians. He is an unforgiving deity. Aric owns nothing more than what he carries, and he likes it like that. He has had some harrowing adventures after he left his tribe, including defending a caravan against a Norker attack; body-guarding a rich merchant’s daughter who he unknowingly impregnated; and recovering a religious artifact stolen by a competing temple. Aric seeks to further improve his fighting prowess, explore unknown lands, battle new and challenging enemies, enjoy pleasurable debaucheries as coin permits, and gather what treasure comfortably supports his lifestyle.
