Alara

Druid of the four winds, following the directions of the great sky spirit as she journeys around the globe. She has no weapons, only a pouch of feathers. These feathers though, can be manipulated and controlled using Alara’s mastery of wind. All she must do is concentrate and the feathers can become deadly weapons. They do damage like daggers. At any one time she has as many as 1d20 + 5, and can attack with each one every turn.

Susan Micheal

A person misplaced by time and forgotten by her dimension. She used to be a scientist but is now an adventurer. She has two large pulse-cannons on her arms. They hum with a scientific energy and glow a sea-green. They can push, grab, and pull things with gravity, manipulating it in a form of faux telekinesis. Other than that, she’s dressed in modern day clothing, which has worn with her time in this new strange universe. She’s looking for any way to get home and is not afraid of anything she’s encountered so far, but she will be afraid the first time she meets a demon.

Black Mask

An ex-druid who has become an assassin. She wears a black, marauder’s mask, black leather armor, and a dark-grey leather cloak. She wields a samurai sword and follows the insight granted to her from her crow familiar. She’s looking to kill the elf in your party and was paid a huge amount to follow through. She has no feelings other than hatred, so unless you can make her hate someone else more than that elf, she’s going to kill them.

Syphania

This arch-wizard, owner of the prestigious Dracar University, is adorned in a sexy, black-leather attire that hugs her magically young form. She’s a very sweet and innocent figure who rules with a quite brute force. Her staff, which is short handled with a large, glowing hornet’s nest on the end. She has control over the hornet’s in the hive (as many as d100 + 30 hornets) and they are all infused with a magical poison which affects people with random, wild magic effects.

Licorice

This samurai is dressed is a loose kimono and tight undershirt. She is like a succubus, except she’s not a demon. She sleeps with other warriors, essentially defeating them with her body. She smokes a magical pipe that she is immune to. When the smoke from the pipe is breathed it acts as a hallucinogenic. She likes to breathe it into the faces of her challengers and then, when they freak out, she defeats them in combat and impregnates them with an idea. This idea grows uncontrollably, leaving the warriors helpless in wallowing self-detriment.

Darrion Bellbottom

This sentient undead, dressed in a troubadour’s hat and matching revolutionary war regalia, wields a long-barreled rifle. Single shot. Insta-kill. He speaks in a slow, drawling tone and is seeking vengeance against the one who left him to die. If you help him find this person (a dark elf with bronze eyes and a crown of thorns) he will have you distract them while he sets up to shoot them from a distance. Then he’ll owe you the remainder of his undead life.

Cosgown Maleficent

A saint from a powerful church. He’s dressed in green, satin robes and wields an ancient spellbook that holds the secrets to a devious cult. He is strictly Lawful Good and is hunting down all the previous members of this cult. The cult is long extinct, much like the Nazis, but there are still splinter cells and people who “abandoned” the cult to save themselves. He is unrestrained when he meets one of these people, and anyone who helps him in eliminating these people will be seen as a holy person in his eyes.

The Bird Priest

Selling birds on the side of the road is a strange, short, fat man, with big bug eyes and a white, ratty beard. He dons a thin, red cloak and wears shitty, cloth clothes. He owns a bird of every species and feeds them as a mother bird would feed her children. He controls every bird, and even when he “sells one”, they steal all the gold they can and return to him the next night. He’s trying to either sell to the party or get them to free one of his birds that got imprisoned in a magical cage.

Xyaren

Assassin. He’s an elongated orc with long hair, long beard, and a bandolier full of shuriken. He has gauntlets of steel claws on, and is otherwise naked. He rides the head of a decapitated demon. The head is as large as a sedan, and has three open eyes that fire rays (like a beholder). The head floats at twice the speed of normal human walking. The head can also devour medium and smaller creatures whole. His fee is 1,000,000gp per person, so whoever hired him to kill the party meant business.

Elaine Blethsare

She’s a pikeman from the royal academy, looking to find an adventuring party that will accept her less-than-stellar scores. She’s very eager and well armed, but she’s very clumsy and not very silent. She talks a lot and never has anything interesting to say. But who knows, maybe, when the chips are down, she can pull out a clutch victory for the party. Or she can just fall in a pit and be forgotten.
