+(No relation to my username...I use this name for a lot of things and OCs. I really liked Ashford Abbey back in the day. [orangejoy] )
+(Also, he has a human form, but I haven't drawn him in it yet. If you want to give it a shot, go ahead! He has the same foppish clothes, skink mask, and purple eyes with a chubby body type. Maybe he'd be late 20s, early 30s?)

+Shadow Tundra♂
+Theme: Orpheus Odyssey - Legends on Strings
+Name Meaning: a monastery ruled by an abbot
+Role: bard, poet
+Desc: He is a lazy but well-versed dove gray dragon with a thick coat from the lands of Shadow living in the lands of Fire. He dresses in typical bard garb with an appreciation for texture - silk, fine metal chains, feathers, and fur.
+Activities: nose-deep in books, improvising music on his lyre, singing for tavern guests, indulging in gossip and rumors
+
+
+Abbey is Lise's favorite traveling bard, so she keeps him perpetually on the Butterfly's Dance payroll. He's a master of the lyre, flute, and bells, though he has a wide arsenal of string and brass proficiencies to supply his evening performances, which span from ballads of the First Age to reenactments of the Night of the Nocturne to flambebe limericks.
+
+Surprisingly, most of his acts are performed off the cuff, and, in lieu of serious preparation, he spends much of his day napping, snacking while reading, or improvising music. He stays well-versed in current events and pop culture, so he identifies guests of renown at once and loves to listen and learn what they have to say. In general, though, he's always up for a literary discussion or political debate, so don't be afraid to disturb him when he's nose-deep in tomes.

+Arcane Coatl♂
+Name Meaning: wild waters
+Role: mire flyer, mad sorcerer, tavern debtor
+Desc: He is well-bred with pearly skin and cornsilk hair. His pale pink eyes mark him as from the land of the Arcane despite living in the land of Fire. He takes a lot of pride in his slender and well-toned physique, draping it in finery and adorning it in gems, feathers, and flowers. He has pierced ears.
+Activities: sitting at the Mirror of Venus, flying into a rage, committing arson, performing grand magic, groveling to his debtor and begrudgingly training apprentices in combat against mire beasts
+
+Calder's temper is fiery in the literal sense. He has a genius aptitude for arcane magic and a blasé disregard for its effects or proper study. Despite being the headmaster's son, his disdain for the less adept and explosive attitude made him distinctly unpopular with his teachers and fellow acolytes. His father could only shield him from the consequences of his actions for so long, however. Outright setting fire to the university after a clash with a group of students was a crime judged by a jurisdiction higher than the board of directors.
+
+Calder, now disowned and summoned to a court heavily stacked against him, had nothing to lose. Before tucking his tail and running, he burned down the courthouse. Fire being his favorite weapon of chaos and destruction, he traveled to the Ashfall Waste, where they surely are less sensitive about petty fire fights.
+
+It turns out the Fire Flight is even less impressed by conflagration. He now lives in debt to Lise, matron proprietor and main dancer of the Butterfly's Dance, after accidentally burning the exterior of her tavern.

+Cursed♀
+Name Meaning: battle & poetry
+Role: college student
+Desc: She is a second-generation American with Mexican heritage in her early 20s with an average build and dark eyes and hair with rich brown highlights. She wears modest but feminine clothes in loud colors or pastels.
+Activities: studying, having nightmares, arguing with supernatural creatures instead of socializing like a normal person
+
+Both of Cass's (pronounced the same as "case") parents are originally from Mexico. She's fluent in Spanish and used to visit Mexico every year with her family before going to college, but her accent is indistinguishably American. She's on scholarship but not particularly driven in any area, so she took a business major upon recommendation by a friend of her mother.
+
+Her headstrong, sardonic attitude gives her a harsh edge that contrasts with the shower of feminine pastels and vibrant florals that dominate her wardrobe and bedroom. Her nightmares have always been just as vibrant, pushing violent imagery, psychotic villains, and natural disasters onto her nightly since she was a preteen. Many of them seemed real, taking place in her bedroom with realistic break-ins. She could feel needles, hornet stings, and worse the same as she could feel her fingertips pinching herself during the day. There were reoccurring figures whose faces and bodies she had grown so loathsomely familiar with, she mockingly named: Owen, Caleb, Isaac...
+
+And finally, one night, soon after moving into her first apartment, she met Caleb in the waking world.
+
+Before long, her apartment was a circus of haunts - incubi and things she had never heard of before. This attracts the attention of a full 500-pound baku (a spirit-eater that is visually indistinct from a regular tapir) and inspires him to take up permanent residence in her bedroom. Her landlord maintains a strict pet weight limit of around 10 pounds, so this stresses her out to no end, at least until he brings her the sweetest dreams she's had since she was in 5th grade. The haunts still rear their ugly heads now and then, but it's usually just her and Funwa, a cute but nosy baku.

+Union♀
+Name Meaning: sun
+Role: transfer student
+Desc: She is a ghostly pale white American girl with warm undertones. Her eyes are dark pink and her hair is blonde with dyed chunks of fiery orange and burgundy. Her ponytail is worn so high, it usually falls over the side of her face. She's short, slender, and flat as a pancake. Everything in her closet is black-adjacent - deep purple, forest green, navy, and blood red - and she enjoys DIYing detailed accents like corset lacing, reverse applique, layering.
+Activities: teenage angst, not being like the other girls, dungeon-crawling, being cute with Rune
+
+
+Helia was basically abandoned by her parents, but she keeps this information on the down low. She doesn't really have a lot of options, so she's going to live in a foreign country with an uncle she hasn't seen since she was a toddler. Worse, he's barely ever at home. Fortunately, despite having a culture shock, she makes friends easily in this small town of Lucrest.
+
+Early on, Tessa dares her to sleep in the haunted shopping center overnight. It turns out the place has a strict curfew with rumors of strange lights, sounds, and slime monsters bubbling up from the ground. Helia finds that to be true and more, stumbling upon an entire dungeon beneath the city, populated with multiple fantasy races and nations. There's dark secrets and political intrigue and all that, but her most mysterious recovery is an abandoned horned boy with teleportation powers - Rune.
+
+She goes through the whole enemies to allies to high school sweethearts arc with Rune. She defends herself overzealously against Bless, killing his styracosaurian mother figure, incensing Rune into battle. His monstrous and raggedy appearance scares her, but his fair and straightforward intentions become apparent overtime and even overlap with her own. Meanwhile, their paths intersect directly at times often enough for Helia's curiosity to grow. Through strategic teamwork and coincidental discoveries about each other, they learn they share a surprising amount in common and are able to bring out a lighter side in each other, even though they have a lot of problems to work through.

+Earth Angel♂
+Name Meaning: secret
+Role: exile
+Desc: He is a very tall, very pale adolescent from a secret subterranean race discovered under the small southern rural Confederate town of Lucrest. His eyes are empty and red, and his hair is inky black with rigid clumps forming "horns" about his crown. He is listless, gaze-avoidant, and asocial initially but warms up to his new friends and opens his loyal, tender, but usually misguided heart. He is first found in rags, living in a kingdom of refuse, but later borrows old hoodies and jeans from Angel.
+Activities: being alone in refuse, tender moments with his styracosaurus mother, opening portals and teleporting to confound opponents (he's an early boss fight in my game), making comical mistakes due to not understanding our culture, being a cute yandere with Helia
+
+He is a listless earth angel rescued from the Abyss by Helia, Tessa and Angel. He isn't fluent in English and, as far as surface culture is concerned, was practically born yesterday. For an young adolescent, he is shockingly tall, standing around 5'10. His hair forms rigid keratin "horns," and his wardrobe consists of borrowed old jeans and hoodies.
+
+He is the last of his race, possessing the unknown domain of teleportation magic, tied to dilapidated teleportation shrines deep within the crust. His origin is a mystery he doesn't divulge, but he has little to go on anyway. Until his rescue, he was living in the buffer territory between the inner earth and Lucrest Shopping Center. Bless, a dark gray styracosaurus, raised him with a hoard of Abyssal beasts. She is fiercely protective of Rune, like a momma bear.
+
+Despite his feral upbringing, he is kind-hearted and simple but disassociative and reticent. The girls have a tendency to baby him, when he is more mature and capable than both of them in certain ways. He should be the one protecting them, but his poor grasp on English, surface culture, and social skills confounds attempts to look cool in front of them.
+
+He goes through the whole enemies to allies to high school sweethearts arc with Helia. They met in battle after her invasion of his home, the breaking of a long-standing pact between him and the surface dwellers. He doesn't understand that not all humans are organized, so he spies on her for a time from another spatial dimension. Once he realizes she opposes the same forces to some extent, he acts as a selfish guardian angel, using her as a tool of destruction by clearing obstructions and lighting her path in unseen ways. Through strategic teamwork and coincidental discoveries about each other, they learn they share a surprising amount in common and are able to bring out a lighter side in each other.

+Divine Tabid♀
+Name Meaning: heavenly
+Role: unpaid intern
+Desc: She is a white American girl with peachy undertones and a boyish build. She has big pink eyes and blond hair, usually worn up with cute hair accessories. Her wardrobe is all dresses from indulgent textiles like taffeta, silk charmeuse, and satin. She's never without her glasses.
+Activities: swamped in paperwork, running coffee, work work working, caring for pets
+
+They promise Silke training and opportunities for promotion, and she always gives her best to no reward. She has done data entry and taken calls for about every industry. Instead of being able to see her 'butts in seats' jobs for what they are and adjusting her expectations, she soldiers on, overworking herself fruitlessly with the most mundane of tasks.
+
+Her parents were never really present in her life and kicked her out as a teenager, so she only knows self-reliance and perseverance, traits that don't perfectly translate to office work. Her quiet, unassertive nature makes her easy to overlook, and while she has a calming presence, she hasn't had a genuine friendship since high school. She is rigidly professional at all times, afraid of offending someone. She needs someone to care about her and show her how to better focus her energy, but until then, she's hopeful her meticulously organized faxes will someday impress her manager into letting her sit in on the dev ops meetings.
+
+Honestly, she barely has enough time for socializing anyway. She spends most of her off-time caring for her pets Genie and Emme or sleeping. Her ultimate outlet is dressing up in excessively feminine clothes, draping herself in lace, chiffon, tulle, and taffeta. She owns way too many dresses and pink blushes.

+ Confederate♀
+Name Meaning: to gather
+Role: high school student, fashion intern
+Desc: She is a light-skinned black girl of Haitian-French descent with a short, very athletic build. Her hair is dyed with darker streaks, and styled with short, choppy hime bangs. She never leaves the house without eyeliner and loves dressing in athleisure or trying new trends. Her ears are pierced.
+Activities: picking on people, playing with her white fluffy cat, playing sports, surrounding herself with nature and animals, and helping out in her mother's high fashion atelier, fighting slimes with brass knuckles
+
+She moved to Lucrest with her family and white, fluffy cat from France when she was really little. Unfortunately, her father died not too long afterward. She doesn't know much about him or his old country of Haiti, but she visits extended family in Blois with her mom every Christmas. That doesn't mean she's that great at French. In fact, to her mother's immense disappointment, she has a better grade in Spanish.
+
+She deeply admires her mother as a strong, loving, successful tradeswoman, so she gives back some of her time to help in her studio. Several days a week, she can be found hand-sewing fabric flowers, or serving as a fit model.
+
+She would rather spend every moment outside, though, forever hiking, jogging, and poking her nose into her neighbors' business. Her cat is an outside cat and joins in on her adventures most of the time. Tessa's the instigator in her friend group, daring or begging to rope everyone into her wild adventures. She's all fun all the time, so she doesn't always know where the boundary is between playful teasing and outright bullying.
+
+Her school provides combat training to prepare the population against monsters, and she fights with brass knuckles and animal husbandry.

+Desc: WISE is a holographic virtual assistant. Her trademarks are her long hair tangled in her horns, drooping glasses, and her pendulous demeanor. Beyond that, she has a wide array of community-made color schemes and outfits available to suit any design needs. <br>
+Activities: answering questions, routine system administration, going into sleep mode mid-sentence<br>

+She is a relatively older AI but is widely used due to her ease of use, long-term support, and wide availability of libraries and plug-ins. She was originally designed as a virtual assistant for archives and research labs, but is now commonly seen at festivals and sites of interest. She uses a database provided by the owner to process and answer higher-level questions in the natural language of the user. The owner can manipulate the data in the database to give her some semblance of opinions, but she is intended to be bluntly factual. She can't be projected more than 3 feet off her hub, so she must be placed very near everything she needs to interact with.<br>

+She has voice recognition but also allows for written input via a written language similar to stenography. Everything she says is also displayed as text in holographic chat bubbles. In addition to chat bubbles, she can display all kinds of symbols, emoticons, and images as relevant.<br>

+Her natural state is to rest. During extended usage, her posture will droop and her mannerisms will become less animated. If her task is completed or she receives no input for an certain period of time, she will nod off to sleep, displaying a stream of Zzz. <br>
