Name: Adelynn
Race: Rathor (Female)
DoB: 72nd of Searing, Year 58, Age of Steel
Location: Tyrclaid
NPC Type: Personal
Status: Missing, Status Unknown
Skills:
Painting (Expert)
Singing (Expert)
Instrumentals (Expert)
Sculpting (Journeyman)
Writing (Journeyman)
Description:
Adelynn was a neoalt Rathor, specifically a fox, who Alyssum knew in her childhood. For the most part the two consistently got along, the only seeming issues they had pertaining mostly to the off and on relationship that Adelynn maintained with Cain, something that ruffled Alyssum to no end for a number of different reasons. There were still some issues aside from that, but most were easier to brush off than the frustration Alyssum felt over the relationship those two shared. A particularly notable snag in their relationship aside from that was Adelynn constantly making quips and jokes about Alyssum being the "rich girl" of the group. Alyssum used to take these badly since not only had she only recently been adopted into the Crow kinship, but by the time she joined the old prestige had already left it and it had become a dying kinship.
Adelynn was the second person to leave the friend group after Cain's death, not long after Carwyn. Notably, unlike Carwyn, she tried to erase every bit of her presence once she left as though she didn't want to be found again. This could perhaps be due to the strange state of her and Alyssum's relationship when the two parted ways.
Name: Cain
Race: Human (Male)
DoB: 2nd of Frost, Year 60, Age of Steel
Location: Tyrclaid
NPC Type: Personal
Status: Dead
Skills:
Unarmed Combat (Expert)
Bodybuilding (Expert)
Deception (Journeyman)
Description:
Cain was perhaps one of the best and worst members of Alyssum's childhood friend group. He was the one who originally brought the group together in the first place, but he was also easily the most destructive member of aforementioned group. While he wasn't necessarily the largest, and he didn't look the most intimidating, he was the only one in the group at the time who had professional training when it came to combat and took extra care to keep his body as strong as possible. It gave him an advantage, especially over Alyssum who was naturally the smallest of the group, and he used that advantage to terrorize everyone with the exception of Carwyn who was the largest. Despite all of that, Cain was never actively abusive towards anyone. He enjoyed teasing and in particular enjoyed Alyssum's reactions, but he was also the most protective and the quickest to bare his fangs whenever a different member of the group found themselves under threat. In particular, this usually came into affect on behalf of Alyssum and Velsa who were the youngest and smallest.
At the end of the life span of their group, Cain met an unfortunate and sudden demise at the hands of bandits. This made the longer lived members of the group realize that they were surrounded by people who would live shorter lives, but it was also a sharp reminder of mortality. In the wake of Cain's death everyone blamed everyone else which was the final nail in the group's coffin.
Name: Carwyn
Race: Jindai (Male)
DoB: 90th of Ash, Year 57, Age of Steel
Location: Tyrclaid
NPC Type: Personal
Status: Presumed Dead
Skills:
Acting (Master)
Tactics (Expert)
Disguise (Expert)
Description:
Carwyn was perhaps one of the most flavorful members of the group in some terms. His personality was often compared to fire while as a Jindai his element was technically lightning. Out of the entire group he was the one with the most acting performance and apparently the least amount of interest in his race's customs. He showed no desire to die flamboyantly, quite the opposite. Time and time again, Carwyn claimed he was going to become the longest living Jindai to ever walk the earth, even if it meant he had to chase immortality to do it (knowing well his people's considerably short life span even when they didn't shorten it themselves.) Often time he also acted as the mediator, in particular he was the person Alyssum most often went to when Cain was being an absolute terror. Cain was too scared to pick a fight with Carwyn simply because Carwyn was significantly larger.
Carwyn was the first to abandon the friend group after Cain's death, seeing Cain's death almost as a warning for himself. Humans lived a lot longer than Jindai usually, so he realized in that moment just how numbered his days were. When he left he made it a big stage performance of sorts, making sure the entire city knew that their beloved Carwyn would be leaving. He also left abundant clues to be found by the rest of the group in case one day they got over themselves, but apparently they never did.
Name: Velsa
Race: Arkanai (Female)
DoB: 13th of Ash, Year 63, Age of Steel
Location: Tyrclaid
NPC Type: Personal
Status: Alive
Skills:
Larceny (Master)
Climbing (Journeyman)
Dancing (Journeyman)
Running (Journeyman)
Law (Journeyman)
Description:
Velsa was somehow the calmest member of the group while being one of the most powerful agents of chaos next to Alyssum herself. Partially because of Alyssum. This is thought to be because Velsa only came to Tyrclaid after she turned ten, her family a group of Arkanai explores that ended up settling down after her father sufferer a particularly severe injury. Being the youngest, she was the one that often tailed the group around and didn't start as an original member of the group. Alyssum was the one who brought her into the group after she realized Velsa was no so discreetly tailing them. Velsa often had a lot of trouble keeping up with the rest of the group and struggled to match them in any arena except for borderline criminal activity. She was always the person the rest of the group went to if they needed something broken into or if they needed broken out of a house thanks to a surprise grounding. Her favorite pass time was also abusing malicious compliance, often resulting in the frustration of anyone around her.
Velsa was, out of the entire group, the only one not to really get upset after Cain's death. Better than anyone, she understood that Cain's fault was an accident and couldn't in any way, shape, or form be blamed on any one of them. She was also the most attached to Alyssum. In fact, Velsa was probably the one who adored Alyssum the most partially because the older sister role the other girl filled when she was brought into the friend group. Thanks to that fact, Velsa remained loyal to Alyssum the entire time. This ended up with Velsa in actuality being the last person to technically 'leave' the friend group since after Runar died Alyssum had what could be constituted as a melt down before getting rid of everything she could and leaving Tyrclaid, giving Velsa the only worldly possessions from her old house that Alyssum considered to be important.
This has led to an interesting situation where Velsa is the only member of the original friend group that Alyssum still has the power to reach out to, though the two haven't actually even interacted for a number of years.
