Lol.
Uhh...
Well I guess I'd better get started.
Kirceus Shaft:
Hair: Falls down to shoulders, a deep pearly jet black.
Weapon: Bow and arrows
Outfit: Baggy gray tunic, khaki pants, sandals that tie up to the knees and leave only the toes exposed, gold ring bracelets worn around the wrists
Gender: Kirceus pretends to be a boy, though she is actually a girl.
Skin tone: Deep tan brown
Nationality: Chorros
Brief summary: Kirceus was always an inspired girl who had an unnatural talent with a bow and arrow. Since she was old enough to walk the patrolled streets of Torol, she dreamed of fighting for her country with her fatal talent. Her father was enlisted in the army and died in the October War, her mother when she heard of the news soon grew ill with grief and despair. Soon enough, a teenage Kirceus was orphaned with her three year old brother, Dimitri.
Kirceus, at the time named Kiera, decided that it was up to her to keep herself and her younger brother safe. Kiera enlisted for the army, hoping to obtain a mild income, but was denied because she was a girl. Kiera, ready to take on any price to protect herself and Dimitri, changed her name to Kirceus and entirely rewrote her identity. She cut her long, dark hair down to her shoulders and began to wear baggy clothing. She would also begin wearing pants rather than dresses she received after her mother's passing. Kiera, finally, changed her name to Kirceus Shaft and was never Kiera ever again.
Entering the army was now in her line of target, and she was prepared not to be denied. Kirceus was accepted and so she began fighting.
Now, four years after the October war, Kirceus was skilled at keeping her old identity a lie and fighting for enough income that could keep her and her brother alive.
Though, eventually Kirceus' secret was discovered and she was ratted out. Evading the onslaught of angry men, unable to consider that a woman could fight better than they, pursuited her in hopes of killing her for her crimes. Kirceus quickly rounded up her brother Dimitri, now seven, and fled for the nearest city outside of Chorros' boundary, Burla. There she and Dimitri found a welcoming village of people who took them both in.
Kirceus, aware that she could never return to Chorros within the next few years, became a wandering marksman, open to any paying non-Chorrosian companies.
Most of these occupations spread from hunting evasive animals for food supply, some involved wounding fleeing criminals without fatalities, and others involved teaching others how to wield and successfully operate a bow.
Kirceus, though, was soon unsatisfied with the dull things she was using her talent for. Grabbing Dimitri, who was becoming somewhat of a mischevious child, the two departed for the shivering cold village of Seadale in hopes that when winter came around, they would get a chance of crossing the frozen area of sea called the Ice Passage, only available for a few weeks a year.
Kirceus had her hopes high that opportunity of joining an army, or at the least a small vigilante group.
Dimitri Shaft:
Hair: Short and fluffy, tied near the back. His hair is a sheen copper color.
Weapon: A knife, or whatever is handy at the moment in time
Outfit: Khaki tunic, black pants, a red shawl, and sandals that tie up to his knees leaving only the toes exposed.
Gender: Male.
Skin tone: Tan.
Nationality: Chorros.
Synopsis: Dimitri was born in a caravan while his mother and sister were travelling from Hale in the Great Escapade to avoid incoming ships from Gortek to invade Raoro. Dimitri grew up to be mischievous and practiced fighting with knives. When his sister was away, he would attempt stealing from other's pockets. Kirceus, when she would see him pull coins out of his pocket, would spank him and scold him. Dimitri, though, would never stop. He only did so because he wanted to help pull the grief off of his sister's face, though it only made her ever the more worried.
Dimitri then began stealing jewellrey, food, materials, books, anything he thought could make his sister happy. Never did they work, but he never let his talent go to waste. Later, when he and his sister departed for Seadale, he celebrated his thirteenth birthday. Kirceus gave him his father's dagger that she received from her mother after her father's passing. Dimitri now wields this dagger when he needs a weapon, though it is rusting and chipping from old age.
