EDIT: If anyone is planning on speaking dwarven, I'd highly suggest wondering why they'd speak a language only the rare tradesmen speaks.

I'll insert your lore into the lore dump now. Apologies for the late answer.


Thank you! It's quite alright.

I look forward to introducing the greenskins to the wonders of greek fire and gas attacks.

I'll probably get a post up tonight or tomorrow responding to the raid and any other posts that come in before then.

Character Application
Name: Diogenia "Dio" Exspiravitius
Age: 24
Bio: Diogenia, Dio to her friends, was born youngest daughter to Senator Archimid Exspiravitius, an inconsequential politician of the Korónatorikoí caste. As such, she had few prospects in life other than to be married off to a member of the minor nobility and a life of boredom and solitude. She was doted on by her father and as a child often found herself in his substantial library, and was enamoured with his collection of histories.

As a young woman, she eventually managed to avail upon him to allow her to attend the Herodotaria - the ancient school of philosophy and rhetoric where many of Eiselene's young men were trained in law and politics. There were also several Rhetors, the school's teachers, lecturing on history and in particular the ancient city of Minascenae, funded by none other than Prince Aden Telaíouyios himself.

The Herodotaria didn't generally receive women, but Dio was persistent. Her father, though eager to avoid controversy, couldn't deny his youngest daughter. She entered the school at seventeen, and since then has been studying under Rhetor Hadrio, one of the foremost experts on Minascenaen lore. Eccentric and kind, he took her under his wing, and has even allowed her to accompany him on several explorations of Minascenaen and Dwarven ruins - without her father's knowledge or that of the other Rhetors.

She has spent time delving Dwarven ruins, unearthing Elven battlefields, and once got one whole arm chiselled with tattoos while spending a year exploring the northeast and living among a tribe there.

Skills: Historical knowledge - Dio has picked up a range of historical and cultural trivia from her mentor and from her studies
Languages - Dio has studied several languages, some useful, some not. These include:
- Eiselenian - her native tongue
- Classical Minascenaen (or as much as has survived or been reconstructed)
- Extremely basic Elvish, but with a completely unintelligible accent
- Eldar Dwarven - a virtually useless and completely obscure, extinct Dwarven language, known if anything for its rhythmic poetry. She's working on a translation of an epic poem that no doubt will be of interest to no one.
- Teanga na gCloch - a written language used exclusively by some northerners to inscribe names on gravestones.
- East Caraithian - a relatively useful dialect spoken by some in the North that is mostly intelligible with other major northern dialects
- Several greenskin cursewords
Sneaky - Frequently expeditions with her Rhetor involve sneaking in to places they aren't allowed, and Dio has often found it necessary to disguise herself as a man, leading to her becoming proficient in sneaking around.

Weaknesses: Reckless - Dio is relentlessly curious to the point of putting her own life in danger
Lack of political acumen - she frequently argues with people she shouldn't or is impolite to those she doesn't respect, in spite of their ranking in society in relation to her.
Not a fighter - she can handle a dagger in a pinch but in general would prefer to avoid physical altercations. She's certainly not a frontline fighter.

Equipment: Light leather armour. Several daggers including an ancient elven arakh she uncovered from an former battlefield. A dwarven compass which always points east and slightly north. Several lengths of good rope and a sturdy grappling hook. A bullseye lantern. Several academic books on history, culture, and language (her most valuable possessions). A journal (her most prized possession) and quills and ink.

Thanks! I'll probably join the expedition to Minascenae when that's possible. Until then I have a few ideas of what to do with her

I have very much enjoyed reading through the posts of others so far, and am now definitely invested in the setting and world! I have written a rather long post, and as always, am always happy for constructive criticism- I realise it is more explantory of how the Oathsworn have come to the current situation of being so cut down during their rides, rather than describing a huge amount from Edwyd's perspective, but that shall be built in the next post!

Just checking before I make another post, is this directed at my character?

Character Application
Name: Scorpius 'Kynigos' Theodoros
Age: 29
Bio: Scorpius was born as a second son of Heraklion, a hunter in Eiselene. Scorpius was named after the Scorpius constellation by his mother, who died of fever when he was 2 years old. His father tried his best to raise young Scorpius and his elder brother, Demetrios. Thanks to Demetrios, Heraklion doesn't need to be afraid of losing the young Scorpius. While their father is hunting animals out there, Demetrios teaches and plays with Scorpius, which then makes them closer.

When the time has come, Heraklion takes Demetrios and Scorpius on a hunt and teaches them how to use a bow and dagger. Both Scorpius and Demetrios learned very quickly. Heraklion always told Demetrios and Scorpius to stick together with each other, while he went alone. Demetrios often challenged Scorpius to get the most hunt, and to be the first to hit a target. Things were going as expected, until one day Scorpius was attacked by a wolf. Demetrios killed the wolf on the spot and then took Scorpius to their house.

Heraklion immediately tried to find someone to help Scorpius, and they successfully saved his life. After the attack, Scorpius is scared to go out with his brother and his father, and instead he'll stay near his house, either playing with friends or just thinking about the past and his future. Demetrios and Scorpius' relationship worsened, for they have never spoken with each other since that accident. That is, until Scorpius becomes curious about what surrounds him. He decided to explore the wilderness during the night, carrying a torch, his bow, and his dagger. He saw many beautiful things in the forest during the night. He sometimes sits in the middle of the forest to watch the stars and the fireflies. Before the sun rises, Scorpius returns to his home to have some rest. Little does he know, his father and brother are aware of his absence during the night, but as soon as they found out what happened, they decided to let him enjoy his own time.

Scorpius always spent his nights in the forest, and one day Demetrios decided to follow him there. They have small conversation about their past, joking, and enjoying the night. In the forest, Scorpius also finds a wolf cub, though he also finds a dead wolf near it with an arrow on its head. Scorpius decided to take the wolf cub with him, but Demetrios disagreed with Scorpius. Scorpius convinced his brother to let him take the wolf home, until Demetrios finally allowed him to take the wolf home. As they get back to their house, his father is shocked to find Scorpius carrying a wolf cub with him. When Scorpius asked for his permission, Heraklion thought long about it before he finally allowed Scorpius to take care of the wolf. Scorpius did take care of the wolf cub, even giving him a name: Orion. After a while, Scorpius decided to go out hunting again. This time, he brought Orion with him.

Years passed. Their father passed away at the age of 63 due to natural causes. Demetrios decided to continue what his father had done, while Scorpius decided to go out and learn and explore the world with Orion. They go through different paths, and Scorpius hasn't met Demetrios in three years. During those three years, Scorpius left Eiselene and began his exploration outside the kingdom. He did faced monsters on his way to explore the world, though he did remember about safe and dangerous places around Eiselene, monsters and hostile creatures that could hurt him, and he learned about survival. Due to the increasing danger, Scorpius decided to make himself a light sword out of the steel he bought back in Eiselene. He wasted his three years helping some traders find their routes and exploring the wilderness. From then on, the traders he helped called him "Kynigos."
Skills:
Archery - Scorpius wasted years of his life hunting and three years exploring the wilderness. He used his bow so many times, which was helpful for him to fight hostile creatures or hostile people before they became too close to his position. He also attached a string to his bow, so that whenever he has to drop it and take his sword, it won't fall to the ground.

Melee combat - Though he doesn't fight against sword wielders, Scorpius can still defend himself from hostile creatures whenever they get close enough to his position. He can also use his dagger and his martial ability whenever he accidentally dropped his sword during combat.

Speaking multiple languages - His exploration did teach him some new things, including language. Apart from Eiselenian, he can speak in, Dún Thuaidh, and dwarven language, although he often forgot about some words and he cannot use their accent. Fortunately though he can still understand those 2 languages.

Weaknesses:
Past injury - Scorpius can still remember how he got injured. Even though he has Orion to protect him, his fear of some wild wolves still frightens him and maybe even makes him unconscious (when they get close enough and when Scorpius is exhausted).

Not a negotiator - Scorpius is an explorer and a fighter, with no experience in negotiation

Equipment: Leather armor (torso), hood, Sigastiras (sword), Diatrisi trypas (dagger), Anemos (bow), leather belt, a torch, sling bag, rucksack (backpack), an empty book, quills, and ink.

While their father is hunting animals out there, Demetrios teach and play with Scorpius, which then will make them closer. When the time has come, Heraklion take Demetrios and Scorpius on a hunt, and teach them how to use bow and dagger. Both Scorpius and Demetrios learned very quick. Heraklion always told Demetrios and Scorpius to stick together with each other, while Heraklion will go alone. Demetrios often challenged Scorpius to get the most hunt, and to be the first to hit a target.

Things were going as expected, until one day Scorpius was attacked by a wolf. Demetrios killed the wolf on the spot, and then take Scorpius to their house. Heraklion immediately try to find someone to help Scorpius, and they successfully saved his life. After the attack, Scorpius is scared to go out with his brother and his father, and instead he'll stay near his house, either playing with friends or just think about the past and his future. Demetrios and Scorpius' relation worsened, for they have never speak with each other since that accident. That is until Scorpius become curious about what surrounds him. He decided to explore the wilderness during the night carrying a torch, his bow and his dagger. He saw many beautiful things in the forest during the night. He sometimes sit in the middle of the forest to watch the stars and the fireflies. Before the sun rises, Scorpius return to his home to have some rest.

Little do he knows, his father and his brother is aware of his absent during the night, but as soon as they found out what happened they decided to let him enjoy his own time. Scorpius always spent his night in the forest, and one day Demetrios decided to follow him to the forest. They have small conversation about their past, joking, and enjoying the night. In the forest, Scorpius also find a wolf cub, though he also find a dead wolf near it with an arrow on it's head. Scorpius decided to take the wolf cub with him, but Demetrios disagreed with Scorpius. Scorpius convince his brother to let him take the wolf home, until Demetrios finally allowed him to take the wolf home. As they get back to their house, his father was shocked to find Scorpius carrying a wolf cub with him. When Scorpius asked for his permission, Heraklion think long about it before he finally allowed Scorpius to take care of the wolf. Scorpius did taking care of the wolf cub, and even giving him a name: Orion. After a while, Scorpius decided to go out hunting again. This time, he brought Orion with him.

Years passed. Their father passed away in the age of 63, due to natural cause. Demetrios decided to continue what his father had done, while Scorpius decided to go out learning and exploring the world with Orion. They go through different paths, and Scorpius won't meet Demetrios since 3 years. During that 3 years, Scorpius left Eiselene and begin his exploration outside the kingdom. He did faced monsters on his way to explore the world, though he did remember about safe and dangerous places around Eiselene, monsters and hostile creatures that could hurt him, and he learned about survival. Due to the increasing danger, Scorpius decided to make himself light sword, out of the steels he bought back in Eiselene. He wasted his 3 years, helping some traders finding their route, and exploring the wilderness. From then, the traders he helped called him 'Kynigos '
Skills:
Archery - Scorpius wasted years of his life hunting and 3 years exploring the wilderness. He used his bow for so many times, which is helpful for him to fight hostile creatures or hostile people before they become too close to his position. He also attached a string to his bow, so that whenever he has to drop it and take his sword, it won't fell to the ground.

Melee combat - Though he don't fought against sword wielders, Scorpius can still defend himself from hostile creatures whenever they got close enough to his position. He can also use his dagger and his martial ability whenever he accidentally dropped his sword during combat.

Speaking multiple languages - His exploration did teach him some new things, including language. Apart from Eiselenian, he can speak in, Dún Thuaidh, and dwarven language, although he often forgot about some words and he cannot use their accent. Fortunately though he can still understand those 2 languages.

Weaknesses:
Past injury - Scorpius can still remember how he got injured. Even though he has Orion to protect him, his fear to some wild wolves still frighten him, and maybe even make him unconscious (when they got close enough and when Scorpius is exhausted).

Not a negotiator - Scorpius is an explorer and a fighter, with no experience in negotiation

Equipment: Leather armor (torso), hood, Sigastiras (sword), Diatrisi trypas (dagger), Anemos (bow), leather belt, a torch, sling bag, rucksack (backpack), an empty book, quills, and ink.
Theme: https://youtu.be/NBpu3Fhvkdc

Looks good, you just need to fix-up the grammar errors and it'll be accepted.

Name: Willeus Philotus
Age: 25
Bio: Willeus was born to an aristocratic family of chamilókrátes in Eiselene, and he has always been an outsider in the city. He has always been more interested in the culture and traditions of the Avhasians than that of the old Aristocheia, and so has been at odds with the korónatorikoí. Despite this, he has always been a loyal subject of King Leoryx and his family, and has served the royal court faithfully. He has also been a vocal supporter of Prince Aden's expedition to Minascenae, and has been one of the few to not be swayed by the protests against it.

Willeus has also always had a strange affinity for the arcane, and despite being forbidden from learning the arcane arts, he has studied them in secret, learning to bend the elements to his will. He has done so with the utmost discretion, for fear of the Kyradímonas, the Golden Guard, discovering his illegal pursuits. This has lead him to be quite paranoid, always looking over his shoulder for anyone watching him.

Willeus has kept this knowledge a secret, knowing that if the korónatorikoí were to find out, they would use him as a tool of their own and try to bring back the old ways of Minascenae. He fears the power that he holds and the consequences of using it, for it often leaves nasty fallout and pollutes the world. But with the fate of humanity in the balance, he knows that he must use his magic to protect those around him, and thus he has decided to join Prince Aden's expedition to Minascenae, as a way to protect both his friends and his kingdom.

Skills: Martial Arts, Magecraft, Strategy, Leadership
Weaknesses: Over-Ambition, Paranoia, Magic Fallout
Equipment: Sword, Shield, Armour, Spellbook
