Summer Lightwalker/Summer Fairsky - blood elf hunter. 

big into wolves, way too young to be out on her own, kind of a little shit sometimes as a defense mechanism. probably chaotic neutral.

Technically two different variants of the same character, with different timelines. Feel free to specify one or the other (we call them sad!Summer and brat!Summer, respectively) or let me choose

Nait O Braonain - blood elf death knight.

tragic soft lesbian turned undead badass sad lesbian who became slightly less tragic recently due to reconnecting with her girlfriend from before she died. It’s complicated

Joisse Lécuyer - nightborne warrior

Pragmatic, technically noble but pretty aware of the privilege that carries, over 10,000 years old and just fell in love with a woman that’ll live less than 100 total (and is already in her 30s). 

Veronne Vaillant - nightborne priest

deaf, adorable, loves sparkles, literally created her own religion because she loves the stars.  And yes, she can use the Light through it. Don’t ask, she doesn’t know.

Yen - void elf mage

yes her full name is Yennefer and yes she’s VERY VERY loosely inspired by Yennefer in The Witcher, but she is very much not the same character. You gonna fight me? She’s in the early stages of a triad with a vulpera and a worgen. :D

Rhianu - void elf rogue

pronounced “ree-AH-nee”, loosely, Welsh pronunciation DON’T AT ME.  She was gone for like 1,000 years doing a lot of demon-fighty shit and she’s super traumatized and dissociated but also a sweetheart. She wears flower crowns whenever she can.

Riad Moonflower - night elf druid hunter

he is a very sad boy but a very sweet boy.  He had a good life and a sweet wife and they were happy and then the demon nation attacked.  I love him so much, my sweet soft boy.

Idriara - night elf demon hunter

I honestly don’t know much about Idri and would love prompts to force me to character build XD

Lisan Carpenter - “dwarf” paladin

it’s in quotes bc she used to be a human but then there was a gnomish teleporter incident. She’s the epitome of “grumpy healer” most of the time. Middle-aged lesbian.

Hana - nightborne rogue

she’s technically sort of dead.  I wrote about her a few days ago!  She’s a sweetheart and has been through Some Shit.

Taliesin (Tallis) - vulpera rogue

Like Idri, I don’t have a lot of info for her yet. Still building, but prompts help with that.

...god there’s so many and I didn’t even list them all. /facepalm

So his mother was turned to a worgen out in Silverpine, and at some point she got knocked up while they were all feral, or something like that.  Caileann is not my character, you’d want to ask Birdie for more deets on THAT.  The point being not only did the local human village lie and say “oh his mother definitely fucked a wolf and that’s how she got pregnant” (no, and impossible), but they basically took this feral child and imprinted the mental structures of SOMEONE ELSE WHO WAS DEAD in his head in an attempt to give that person a second chance at life, essentially.  It didn’t work, but it did put certain structures in his head to allow him to understand and speak languages, to fight, and know basic civilization things, at least loosely.  When he stayed himself and not this other person, it was like “oh well” and put a compulsion on him to stay and protect the village even though they hated him and made him live in a cave outside of town and were generally DEEPLY ABUSIVE AWFUL DICKS to him.  

But he was a big sweetie at heart, which bard/rogue Dandelion (a vulpera) found out when he was tracking some possible Forsaken activity in Silverpine on behalf of Warchief Baine Bloodhoof.  They ran into each other, Caileann let Dandy come out of the rain into his cave, and Dandy kind of fell hard and fast for this kind, amazing man who was being treated like shit, and when he went back to the Warchief to report he also talked about “hey I can maybe go around encouraging peace, maybe even outright cooperation between Horde and Alliance, through my songs and also y’know, working closely with this worgen, since he’s alliance and i’m Horde, and you and King Anduin could give us papers allowing us to be in the other faction’s lands and shit?” and Baine was like “yeah ok” and wrote to Anduin who was like “yeah ok” and so Dandy needed to get back to Silverpine (really out of the way, for someone from the Horde) so he could convince Caileann to come with him.

So instead of taking the long way around he started looking for a mage to open a portal, and that’s how he found Yen.  She’s technically a void elf, which is a weird sort of subrace of blood/high elves who use void magic and are attached to the Alliance for various reasons, but like.  She was a blood elf first.  She had natural connections to/inclinations towards void magic, even before it became A Thing in WoW, and she got treated like shit for it for a long time, but she was Horde until the whole “void elf” thing became a thing.  So because she is clearly a void elf in appearance, due to the effects of void magic, she can pass through Alliance lands, and a hood or a small glamour would allow her to pass for a normal blood elf in Horde lands, so she’s kind of perfectly situated to work cross-faction.  So Dandy hired her because of her portals and shit, and she’s like “fuck yes I’m broke bc people are freaked out by me so I’m IN” but then she met Caileann too and it was like.  She was still determined to get paid but she got very personally invested in getting Caileann out of Silverpine, at least.

SO ESSENTIALLY they became a thing bc Caileann was treated like shit, Dandy met him and fell in love and wanted to give him a way out, and hired Yen to help him do that.  And over time they just... grew on each other, until they ended up together.

We’re still pretty early in developing their relationship, but basically the three of them are travelling around, helping people out where they can to forge goodwill between the factions, and Dandy is spreading a song he wrote that was largely about Caileann but was also very much about the Horde and Alliance working together, and the tragedy of the Forsaken being abandoned by their queen who they thought had cared about them, and wouldn’t it be better if we helped each other, etc.  They’re essentially a little walking propaganda machine, but like.  GOOD propaganda.  Helpful, peace-encouraging propaganda.  

And Yen is able to stop pretending she’s only out for herself, at least with them, and Dandy is able to have these two people that he actually is devoted to (he’d had some issues back in the caravans causing trouble by being poly and also not super invested in serious relationships) but who also would probably not hate him for not always only just being with then, and Caileann gets these two people who treat him kindly, and gently, and like a person, and who build him up as best they can.

And Yen is perfectly delighted by her furry boyfriends because she never much understood the feelings of “but they’re so animalistic” that some people had regarding the furred races.  She’s frankly into it.  (Yen is a fuckin furry let’s just say it)  But she’s very defensive of their personhood, too, so woe betide the person who calls Caileann a dog, or says that Dandy looks like a precious little toy, because she will cut a bitch.  (and they love *her* even though she’s all voidy and terrifying, which does wonders for her not hating herself, so it works out)
