Cast and Characters
Welcome, to all of our wonderful readers!
Here is an introduction to our wonderful characters for the Freaks & Facades campaign, as well as the amazing players bringing them to life!
Be sure to check out our new F&F Art Gallery for official character artwork!
This is a brief guide to the characters’ personalities and starting goals (with some insights gleaned after feeling them out in-game).
In addition, one of our players ( @owldork1998 ) has created several character aesthetic boards for each of the cast! Every one of their vibes are immaculately represented!
We hope you love our band of beloved Freaks as much as we do! Check them out below!
With Love,
Pryrrish Norfaer - ( @moonstruck-vixen )
Pryrrish of House Norfaer was once one of the serene and mysterious star elf race; now exiled from their cloistered and dying realm of Sildeyuir.She is a forsworn scholar, hunting for the most hidden secrets of the otherworldly. In her hands she clutches a Tome of spiraling, shadowy script--the cause and salvation to her quest for knowledge. Only she can truly understand what the maddening writing deigns to tell her. For her eyes and souls both hold that same spiral of unreadable darkness within them…
Her youth was cut short after witnessing devastation on the Material Plane. The dreaded Day of Mourning. And when she endeavored to uncover how it had come to pass, that foolish quest brought her no answers. Only terrible personal disaster.
Paying a price she never anticipated, Pryrrish was branded a heretic. Forced to embrace the darkness of her new accursed patron--the Elemental Dark itself--to save and begin her life. The Tome's secrets both doomed and saved her; perhaps it will now guide her to what it all means? There must have been a reason behind her misfortune. A reason for why she was offered the brand of the Elemental Dark upon her soul…
Will she find what she seeks through her determination to reclaim knowledge thought lost? Or will the Elemental Dark, forever whispering in her ear, consume her in this foolish quest’s end?
Star Elf Warlock 6
Ludwig Hossler Schrödinger - ( @atlysium )
Ludwig Hossler Schrodinger is a young man fascinated by the world around him; and people fascinate him more than anything, for reasons we all take for granted...
He appears a proud scientific noble of Lamordia, tastefully austere and rational to a fault. Except when it comes to human osteology, the study of bones. His parents (who love him very very much) helped him acquire a taste for this little-understood branch of science. But they never truly introduced to the world beyond their cryptic household. How odd, considering their influence as Markgrafs of the mountain village of Schwartzsteinburg…
It was a great surprise when Schrodinger’s idea to travel beyond the town was embraced wholeheartedly by his parents. For their darling son hoped to meet with the Society of the Enlightened Mind in Ludendorf! Lady and Lord Schrodinger thought it would be a life-changing opportunity for their son to share the fruits of his labor in the field of osteology (and osteomancy). And so, departing from the safety net of his protective and equally gifted parents, he has proudly shared his life’s work to the Society! But the Society, unfortunately, quite misunderstood his enthusiasm for this strange new science.
Is he a victim of academia, tirelessly struggling to be understood? Or, perhaps, the Society saw his endeavors in self-experimentation as the unnatural obsession it truly is?
Human Boneblade 6
Fenri Sunwillow - (Redbrown [not on socials])
Fenri Sunwillow is an exceptional, strong-willed halfling priestess; her smile lights up a room even in the darkest of times.
She is tirelessly devoted to the teachings of the Dawnfather Pelor–God of the Sun, Healing and Mercy. With her unshakeable faith, Fenri has gone on many adventures beyond the Free City of Greyhawk. She has faced monsters, scoundrels and failure, all alongside friends who welcomed her gifts and her optimism. She treasured them wholeheartedly and offered them the grace and healing of her god!
But now Fenri Sunwillow is no longer among friends. She is a light with no one to shine upon. She continues what the tenets of Pelor ask of her, seeking to find those most in need of her gifts. And her friendship. Everyone is a friend Fenri hasn’t met yet! But life is hard on such a small bundle of joy, and the Sun does not shine all day without rest. And yet Fenri shines and shines–through true faith, inner strength or misguided delusion, who could say?
Will she push through what awaits her, through the darkest time in her life? Or shall the Sun inside her heart not be enough to sustain her once its out of reach?
Halfling Cleric 6 (Patron Deity: Pelor)
Channa Devir - ( @aureliagaming )
Channa Devir knows much about sacrifice; and she is willing to risk much in order to reclaim what is hers.
An aspiring prodigy in the arts of elemental theory and magic, Channa's life began when she was lifted up from poverty. She even became a student at the University of Arcanum-Wynax despite her impoverished upbringing. They taught her about the laws of reality, and how to make them into a life all her own. She followed their guidance and built up an incredible friendship, becoming attuned to the principles of elemental earth in the process. Earth is steadfast and patient, while the rest of the world seems flux. And she felt, through her mentors' aid, she had sacrificed enough of her body and soul to have real achievement in this crazy world.
But then her foundation for living was suddenly lost. Her best friend; gone without a trace; not even a note... She went to their mentor, supposedly the greatest conjurer in the realm for answers. Together Channa learned more and more, hoping to unravel the elemental ritual left behind by her friend... But then her mentor, her only support and teacher, followed her best friend and vanished as well. The ritual remnants in their laboratory... They had followed her lost friend without her...
Channa had lost everything to this mystery, so she decided to follow in her friend and mentor’s footsteps. To make them answer why they had abandoned her. The sacrifices needed to for such a ritual would be great, but Channa would follow it to the end. To be with them again!
Will those she searches for weep that she was drawn onto their same path of mistakenly pursuing knowledge? Or has Channa offered herself before a hungering evil that has fed upon greater mages than she and her friends?
Human Duskblade 6
Solange Therese Charron - ( @owldork1998 )
Solange Therese Charron has long embraced her lot in life, forever on the outskirts.
She had a rough start of it: a strange foundling raised by a pair of poor gravediggers, just beyond the walls of decadent and lively Port-a-Lucine. She was born touched by the grave in more ways than one, however; for Solange is a caliban, a creation of humanity’s aspirations twisted by the darkness of taboo and unforgiveable sin. She is forever forced to hide her deathly beauty behind the veil of the mourner; which suits her fine. No one asks a gravedigger why they hide their face...
But those that linger beyond death have taken notice of her--another being trapped between worlds, though not as literally. To hone this dangerous connection, and defend the living, she was invited to watch over the crypts of the city’s oldest bloodlines.
She became a gravekeeper of St. Leonburg’s Cemetery by night, hoping to earn the experience to see what the Order of the Moonlit Vigil protects within the uncharted catacombs below. The dark of those bone-decorated labyrinths calls to Solange, but she instead pushes towards her duties of protecting the noble dead (and tolerating the living nobles who visit the cemetery to socialize and scheme). But she cannot truly escape the call, literally and metaphorically...
Can one seemingly born to serve death find peace in her duties among them? Or must Solange dare to walk among the living to find answers about her spectral-afflicted existence?
Caliban Gravedigger 6
That's all there is, folks! And yet... There is so much more!!
