Aaaa! Thank you! And almost all of my characters are up on this page if ya wanna check it out!

Velancea

She’s the commander. She’s the epitome of strength and fighting through hardships. She’s an inspiration to everyone and everything.

But she’s terrified.

She’s terrified of losing those she has grown so close with. She can’t even think about losing Canach, despite her avoiding him many times as a result of not wanting to deal with the aftermath of their relationship during the events of HoT. She loves him, but is terrified of letting herself love him out of fear of losing him, and she will hold herself and her true emotions back for as long as she needs to in hopes of preventing this from happening, and saving herself from further trauma and heartbreak.

She’s terrified of letting people down. She’s constantly “leading” large groups of people into a fight that could result the loss of their lives or worse circumstances than they began with.

She’s scared, but more scared of showing this emotion publicly than anything. She’s the commander. She knows no fear. She can’t be defeated. She’s immortal.

Right.

She’s the commander.

Remulys & Draigean (I remember getting a message about how I seem to connect most of my characters through their origins and forgot to mention that even these two crazies have had run-ins)

Some time after Albion had been taken in by the wardens and left her control, Draigean ran into Remulys. There was heavy flirting going on between the two (really more just aggressive remarks on Remulys’ part that Draigean found endearing cause let’s be real, Remi can’t flirt. He’s too angry). They were sharing a drink and she brought up him joining the nightmare court, as he could be a great asset to them. However, Remulys declined, as he always did (followed by either killing or cutting out the tongues of those who asked). When threatened, Draigean only seemed to want him more. He was untameable and unhinged, much like herself. The two have slept together a time or two after that, and Remulys eventually disappeared, never staying in one place for too long.

It’s likely they’ll meet again, and it’s very possible that one may end up dead at the other’s hands, but it only makes their encounters all the more exciting.

Clodagh

Clodagh has had nightmares just about every night since she escaped Vorpp and his research crew before they reached their lab. She was always haunted by the violet eyes she saw before she made her escape. This lead to many night terrors and absolute guilt, as she hadn’t attempted to save anyone else. After finding that man, Canach, years later, she was almost brought to tears. He was alive. He had survived. Clodagh had never found a survivor (or one she recognized, at least), and she wanted nothing more than to just fall to her knees crying and thanking all above that he was alive. Even after their hours of talking, Clodagh knew she still couldn’t make up for leaving him and the others behind way back when. She’s come to terms with knowing she will never be able to. Even still, whenever she is with Vel and Dragon’s Watch, she is always looking out for Canach. Always. She knows he’s survived and made it well on his own, but her instinct will always be to protect him. He is always her top priority, though never lets it be known to anyone else. She wouldn’t be able to live with herself if he dies and she was able to prevent it in any way.

Driskel

After Remulys changed and became unhinged due to Mordremoth’s partial corruption that he fought through, he began to target people he knew in order to learn their magic skills. Driskel was someone Vel introduced Remulys to after he’d finally woken from his pod (Driskel found Vel anxiously waiting for Remi to wake, and kept her company and eased her worries). Driskel is a mesmer, and Remulys found the magic of a mesmer to be valuable to him. He could do so much more if he could clone himself, portal, and do just about everything else a person of that profession could do. After the unfortunate first encounter between Remulys and Velancea post-HoT, she had a gut feeling that he could go after Driskel, and contacted people to take Driskel into the Grove and keep him there as to protect him from being taken by Remulys and ultimately be tortured into teaching the corrupted sylvari his magical profession. While he was at first lost on the whole reasoning for being taken to the Grove and put under heavy protection, Driskel was thankful in the long run for Vel’s instincts, as they proved to be true.

Porphyra

1. Do they have any sort of physical condition or mark that impacts their daily life?

- There’s nothing too bad, except that when she starts slowly figuring things out about who she is and what she needs to do, dragon-like features start to appear on her body. First are the patches of golden scales, which can be easy enough to hide, but get pretty itchy from time to time. Another feature is her horns that will grow in, and at that point, it will be rather difficult to hide them. Still, she finds excuses about them to keep herself from becoming a test subject to wondering minds.

6. How easily do they cry? Is it different alone vs in public?

- She’s never one to really be caught crying, but since her “rebirth,” she finds herself crying in frustration and confusion with not knowing who she is, where she came from, or what she’s supposed to be doing.

11. Within their group, where do they fall during emergencies? The leader, the support, the cause of the emergency, etc.?

- 98% of the time, she’s the cause of the emergency. Even so, she will try to get through it with enthusiastic leadership (many times she makes it worse, but it’s the thought that counts, right?)

16. Do they have any regrets in their life?

- Probably messing with the sorcerer that killed her tbh

21. Does the weather in your setting ever affect their health?

- As a dragon, she loved to fly in the summer rain. Now, with her having little to no memory of her life before dying, the summer rain gives her an odd sense of nostalgia and often times vertigo - sometimes mild, sometimes severe.

26. Are there any risks for illness or injury specific to their job?

- Given that her “job” is really just her trying to figure out who she was and what the heck is going on, there isn’t any major risks. However, as physical traits begin appearing on her, she is more and more susceptible to being kidnapped for research and testing.

31. What’s one skill or aspect of themselves that they feel self-conscious of?

- She’s a very curious soul, and while many times it only causes trouble, she never seems to really learn from her mistakes, and at times, she wishes she could just stop being so curious until she gets distracted by something.
