Origin: Motalbino

The Goldsmith family hails from a long line of wizards and witches that uncovered turning Lead into Gold from the ancient times of discovering magic. It was magic at the beginning of all wondrous discoveries which was done by no other than a man known as Fleming Stone Goldsmith, the best philosopher of his time and the first wizard. Fleming established himself in Montalbino , which borders High Norland, where he continued his astronomy research and boost the townships economy with gold. It is the base of the largest astronomy tower anyone has ever seen that was built between Fleming's four sons. The secret of turning lead into Gold has been passed down for generations only within the family, as the ability has been protected by blood magic.

With the boost in economy Motalbino established and operated the train system between all the neighboring kingdoms where they get serviced. After the war the tracks have been destroyed and the cost of reparations may not be in any kingdoms best interest to make repairs on something that took decades to build.

Kelvin Atticus Goldsmith is the only child to a witch named Alyssa Lilith Goldsmith who was banished to the wastes after her entanglement with married Wizard of unknown rapport; it was rumored to be a court wizard from an unknown kingdom. It was not a serious crime in regards to magic but she did use a love potion to seduce the wizard in order to produce a child of high magical pedigree. It had been twenty five years since she was banished to the wastes of Ingary and ultimately died at childbirth as her powers were limited to even saving her own life.

The Devils Causeway is a horrifying light house at the edge of the wastes next to the sea, the blackened oozing slime stone walled structure was an eye sore to sea ships that drew near, the bright green eerie glow of a flame at the top of the glass chamber could be seen for miles as a warning to all that it was an evil lair. Alyssa placed a trust curse for anyone who entered the lighthouse in order to protect her son prior to his birth. Intruders who risked leaving would lose their lives and theirs souls added to the green flames to warn others to stay away.

Out of pity the unknown court wizard appointed several caregivers for Kelvin to live his days in the lighthouse. However, in order to keep the child's father's identity secret the caregivers were unable to speak about him or the Kingdom at all. A maid named Josephine who has gradually becoming blind raised the boy. A chimera wizard named Gulliver, who merged with a seagull, taught Kelvin magic and ran errands into towns for supply runs. A light fairy that belonged to Alyssa in her old home was brought over as a housekeeper of the lighthouse.

Kelvin grew up annoyed at everything and especially his caregivers for keeping him isolated in the lighthouse, he found it unfair to be kept in the wastes, and traveled as much as he could to relieve his frustrations but he was barred at the gates of every kingdom. A black list had prevented him from entering as a premeasure of never being able to pinpoint which kingdom he hailed from.

Until the war broke out, the seals at every gate were broken, it was his only opportunity to recover several magical relics in search of something but nothing at all; it was shortly after collecting the first two items that he held an interest in collecting magical items as a hobby. As it was unknown how long the war would go on for he calculated his next move. After procuring the amulet of Escandor his goal of gathering magic items were a breeze, Kelvin was adept in finding magic items with a sixth sense, and most of them were not in the possession of any witch or wizard aside from their dead bodies after losing the fight.

In no time, Goldsmith had quite the treasure trove of magic items, if anyone caught a glimpse of him he vanished before their eyes with the aid of Escandor, and when the war ended he was never seen again. With peace restored after the return of the promised Prince, the kingdoms were rebuilt, the blacklist enacted, and Kelvin was but a rumor under several names. Many wizards and witches had forgotten about Alyssa Lilith Goldsmith since the very memory of her had been forcefully erased to all except Kelvin and his caregivers. Without any contact with wizardry society this detail of his mother's memory being revoked is unknown to him and if he were ever to learn of it all hell would break loose.

Reed
Age: 50 appears to be in his 20s
Occupation: Adventurer
Origin: Lake Sember, Faerun, Toril
Marital status: Single

57911bf02150311dd88ccf0e69c720a6.jpg

Born under a full moon in Lake Sember and blessed by Selune with white hair at birth; which is unusual among sea elves. Reed is in search of a relic in order to connect with the goddess as he is yet to receive a direct response even after becoming a cleric of the arcana domain. A retractable trident is kept in a sheath as it is a three generations family heirloom which he kept in his possession for 50 years of his life. Against his parents wishes he left his clan for his personal pilgrimage despite not being an "adult" to elven standards.

The Sember clan worship Istishia for centuries including Reeds parents and when he was born it was odious to even mention Selune as they had migrated from the sea of stars and disassociated with the moon for calmer waters. Rather than be the center of attention he was treated as a lesser sea elf always being chosen last for community activities such as fishing, hunting, building new homes, even parties.

Traveling has allowed him to take on a background of urchin among several cities and adopt a white pet mouse along the way. Reed developed his network as an urchin, he did odd jobs around the city, it ranged from helping an old woman get rid of a nest of giant centipedes from her basement, to being a ship medic, and being a test subject to an herbalist/alchemist in one city and suddenly is known well enough to be a test subject again in another city although he had never been there before.

The trident polymorphs into creatures on a given phase rendering it unusable as a weapon. Reed the. tris to use animal handling to control it or not. On a fail he would have to either fight it or follow it around until dawn to recover his trident again as the effects are only from dusk till dawn.

Reed is looking for a relic of Selune but is unaware he already has one as he somehow unlocks its properties later on, his parents never had an issue with the trident and are unaware of what has become of it. Maybe keeping it sheathed prevents it from transforming as the moon has not graced it's light upon it. Which would mean someone in his family knew of it polymorphing but the knowledge was lost over time.

Rory Mercury
Age: 18
Occupation: Rogue
Origin: Unknown
Martial Status: Single

Rory Mercury is a famous theater actor from a small human village that was enamoured with the fact that all the different roles of the plays were performed in a single act. Part of the illusion was being so quick and stealthy into wearing multiple masks. The secret behind the fame was specifically not identifying to any gender, fluidly changing voices, and making subtle movements in performing specific characters. At the peak of that career Rory decided to venture out and hone better talents in the shadow arts. Northshire was the perfect place to learn of various cultures, people, mannerisms, and skills that can be attained through experience.

Violeta
Age: 30 looks younger
Occupation: Engineer Technician
Origin: 2047 Earth
Martial Status: Single

a5230778587f564c49d110949bb0e2ee.jpg

Since childhood Violeta Sandoval was chosen last during playtime, group projects, and beyond. It was no wonder that at 30 years old she was the last lucky technician to wake up 1,250 years later but in reality it was still a lottery on which vaults would be activated. Fortunately the vault systems kept running long enough for Violeta to wake up along with Ward Smith who she had little contact with in the past until now. Shortly after being activated the nuclear power core of the vault had entered a critical state, it had reached the limits of time, and Ward took it upon himself to venture out in search of supplies despite research being more resourceful since the previous techs were awoken 25 years prior.

Violeta remained behind, she looked through the logs of the other 50 pairs of techs, and started by searching: disabling fusion reactor. It seemed that a second experiment was conducted to test technicians, some of the fusion cores were created to expire shortly after the technicians were awoken, and they all noted this in their logs explaining that they were forced to look for other vaults to swap the cores with. One technician had a hole in their anti-radioactive suit and died in the process of the exchange. There were blueprints on how to improve the present reactor the best one labeled 'Vault-tec super reactor' that was developed 150 years ago which caught her interest, which meant Ward was not wrong about getting nuclear materials to replace the power core with.

Martial Status: In a relationship with Alanis

8511484ba26473b538b9d460e9b030b0.jpg

At the Renaissance Pleasure Faire, Nathan split off to have a drawing commissioned while Alanis played Dungeon's & Dragons. He was hoping to commemorate the day by being drawn by an artist as well as his girlfriend of two years before he confessed what he had been planning their future to be. Initially he wanted to apologize for being at work so much and ignoring her and he hoped that she understood that it was because he was trying to achieve a position as head chef at a new restaurant that just finished being built. Shortly before taking a week long vacation he wanted to take Alanis to all the places she enjoyed going to looking for the right moment to propose for her hand in marriage.

Location: Martyrs Wonderland

With no semblance of time he arrived as soon as Alanis left.
