we cannot - we will not falter

Robyn Ostornwyn

Warrior of Light. Of Unbreakable Lealty.

For Robyn there is nothing more important than protecting her family. She spent her childhood looking after her adopted sister, Osk. They were separated during the calamity, hoping the she was alive but fearing the worst. Failing her duty, Robyn dedicated the rest of her life to protecting others in an attempt to atone for her failure. She stumbled her way into working with the Scions of the Seventh Dawn and the rest, as they say, is history.

Falling in love with Y'shtola was unexpected, embracing the twins as her own siblings less so. Slowly her family grew and became her anchor and her strength. A wound sustained from a battle with a certain scythe wielder weakened her shield arm, so she has taken up the gunblade instead. Anything to keep moving forward unto the next dawn.

Osk Ostornwyn

Chirurgeon. Firstblessed.

Osk was taken in by the Ostornwyns as a baby, and when her natural talent with healing magic became apparent, she was happy to have a way to finally pay them back for their kindness. But Mama O died from her illness anyways and the she was forced to flee in fear of the conjurer's guild's retaliation - Robyn choosing to stay by her side until the calamity took her away, too.

She then apprenticed under a chirurgeon who ran a medical camp in the Twelveswood, honing her magical ability while learning the healing techniques of a chirurgeon. Together they supported people impacted by the war with Garlemald as well as the general dangers of the forest. The conjurer's guild is aware of her presence and keep a wary eye on her - especially after she took in a padjal child.

A wayward spell saw Osk summoned to the First alongside the Scions, where she was finally reunited with Robyn. She helps them out in their quest and after ~all that~ returns to the Twelveswood. Now she must decide between doing her duty and experiencing the adventure that traveling with her sister could bring.

Elio Bakaro

Of the 14th Chakra.

Elio join the sisters in their early adventuring days after they saved him from a particularly nasty beast. He filled out their young and inexperienced adventuring party, traveling with them and watching their back for many years, until the calamity separated them as he was captured by the scattered Garlean forces.

Elio was rescued from the Empire's grasp by El, a mysterious monk with the propensity to fight alone, and begged her to train him. Little did he know that his time fighting along side the older woman would eventually lead him back to Robyn (and eventually Osk).

Teacher and pupil together joined the scion's fight against the Empire, both in Ala Mhigo and Doma, and was eventually called upon to aid Estinien in destroying the Black Rose weapon once and for all.

El Apella

Hope's Legacy.

El was born and raised in Bozja. Her mother was a respected leader in the city, and her father a celebrated musician, both loved their daughter very much. She was was a young woman when Bozja was destroyed, spared only because she was conscripted as a political prisoner by the Empire.

El managed to escape the Garlaen forces after word of what became of her home, eventually making her way to Eorzea. There joined with the Circle of Knowing in their fight against Garlemald. After the calamity, she was surprised to find that no one remembered her, and more importantly, that no one seemed to want to continue to fight the Empire.

El carries the weight of her parent's dreams of a freedom, and Louisoix's gift of anonymity, and travels to wherever she can cause the most damage to Garlemald's defenses. With the help of Elio, they fight to secure freedom for all lands from the Empires grasp.
