The PC party currently consists of these brave adventurers (in alphabetical order) . . .

• Archer -- The Bard
• Dallben -- The Mage
• Dodger -- The Thief
• Hunter -- The Ranger
• Sierra -- The Youngster
• Usul -- The Dwarf
• Vesta -- The Priestess
• Xelant -- The Mage

The youngest son of a miller and his wife, Archer was born in the far away village of Bracken Ridge Falls, which is on the northern coast of Abraxis several days ride west of Waterbanke.  He ran away with a traveling minstrel when he was about fifteen years old.  His instrument playing is good and he tends to create phantasms as he plays, in order to enhance his performance.

In a fight, Archer is good to have around unless there's a 'Fear' spell in effect in which case he tends to run away and cry like a little girl.

Under his surface of sarcastic wit, Dodger is a complex individual whose deepest secrets are rarely shared.  He will show great loyalty to his true friends, but his ego often leads him to entertain himself as his greatest ally.

While on the job, however, Dodger delves into the darkest reaches of his being to become as ruthless and unforgiving as anyone of his trade might be.  It is for thieving purposes alone that he will use magic items, as he otherwise finds magic to be unfairly powerful.

As for flaws, the party has become aware that Dodger has a strong phobia of high places.  He is also a defiantly strong night person and hates waking up early.
 

Hunter hates Mages.  He tolerates ones that don't get in his way. He is also a flirt with the ladies (at least he thinks he is).  His best friend in this current situation is Dodger. It seems he has known him since kindergarten.

Hunter’s combat tactics: If he can, he hucks his nifty axe into battle first, then he heads in with both swords, fighting in a sai like fashion.  He uses his bow for all distance or stealthy situations. By the way, in case you didn't guess Hunter goes after the mages first.

The other party members have noticed Hunter seems a bit hesitant about the whole swamp thing, and he ALWAYS sits down-wind from the campfire.
 

The oldest daughter of Joseph and Martha of Rendall Point, Sierra had a normal childhood, but when puberty started, her psionic talents emerged.  Many things in her life have been less than ideal, much less pleasant, but she remains a bright and happy young lady.  Over the past three years, she's recieved training from a number of different sources, but most of it has been her own effort and perseverance.

To date, Sierra hasn't performed positively in a combat situation, but that can change at any time.

Usul is ornery, distrustful, and occasionally chaotic in battle --but he likes a good pipe, a good ale, and thick stone under his feet. Oh, and he trusts magic only slightly more than Hunter.

In combat, Usul likes anything solid which breaks his opponents --though his pick and crossbow are his current favorites.

If Usul has any flaws --damned if he's going to tell you. Hmmph.
