Her parents gave her the name Medea, meaning cunning, because they hoped it would give her an advantage in life that might help them and her live a better life, and help it did. As soon as she could walk and talk, Medea started begging on the streets, and when people wouldn't give her money to buy food or clothing, and even sometimes when they would, she'd pick their pockets and steal their purses as they turned away from her. As she grew older, she started going after more than just purses, and she rarely ever got caught. Her last heist, however, wasn't the best choice of things to steal. She'd seen a very pretty ring on a man's finger one day but hadn't been able to get close enough to steal it from him because he was surrounded by guards, so she'd followed him from a safe distance to his home and went in that night to steal the ring. Turns out that man was the king, and stealing from the king is an offense punishable by death. But the king gave her a chance to safe her own life, and now she's a part of this expedition team--a team that, aside from her, is all males.hunter

witch profiles Orphan witch  /What my parents named me: Adiana Ves'an
/How many years I've been alive: Twenty
/How I've acted my whole life: Adiana is relatively shy, as she has always felt like she has never truly fit into the community. This is mostly due to the fact that she has always felt quite lonely in the village, save for some people like the Mother Witch. Socially awkward to most, she is known to be quite cheerful around the few close people to her. Empathetic and and understanding, she doesn't say much, but the feelings are there. Adiana tends to have a sharp tongue, but sometimes she doesn't truly mean what she says. If anything, she wants and tends to avoid conflict, be it physical or verbal. /What I am in this story: Orphan Witch /What spells are my favorites? Well…: Deprimo: A very powerful wind that can loosen and/or soften a variety of things; it can also be used to detach objects.
Episkey: Used to heal relatively minor injuries.
Avis: Creates a flock of birds. /My past: Adiana had found herself lost in the woods one day, either forgotten or her parents killed in the forest. Either way, the village found her, and sensing magical abilities within her, took her in. Growing up with the generosity of several families, Adiana is now an accepted member of the Village, though she herself feels like an outsider at times. She was trained in the magical arts by her caretakers, and partially by the Mother Witch herself. Adiana is nearly blind in her right eye, due to (she thinks) an accident which happened before the Village found her. She helps to protect the village sometimes, though she truthfully feels no ill will towards humans, merely following orders to help her community thrive. She lives by herself on the outskirts of the village.Witch's daughter /What my parents named me: Larxene Celeste Amaranth
/How many years I've been alive: 23 /How I've acted my whole life: Larxene is a bit of a complicated person as she tends to be cynical, narcissistic and devious. However, behind that tough exterior, she is a sweet and a kind person. /What I am in this story: Witch's Daughter/What spells are my favorites?Well...: Weapon summoning, Necromancy/Black Magic; not to be mistaken for resurrection and healing of all sorts of wounds and injures, though it drains her depending on the seriousness of said wound/injury./My past: Being the daughter of a great witch, the weight of an even greater expectation was placed over her shoulder. From the time she was able to walk, she was taught magic and was strictly enforced to learn as much in little time. Without much freedom to do anything else, Larxene grew to be a serious, even-minded and observant person. When she turned fourteen, a suitable age for an arranged marriage in her village was set up. At first, she resisted for she was never interested in finding a partner, at least at that age. By eighteen, she had grown onto her future partner and requested for the wedding to take place. That was until she found out about her future partner's conniving plan when she overheard him talking to his best man. Larxene exposed her future partner and his friend on the day of their wedding as he had planned to take her hand and hold her hostage, rendering her mother powerless to save her or to resist their execution. His plan to slay all the men of the village and to take the females as either his sex slaves or to trade them in for gold. With the truth out, Larxene slit their throats before they could take another breath. Since that day, Larxene has been a bit of a difficult person to figure out, but the village knew they could count on her when danger falls upon them. Mother Witch biggrin sy-64ea0219df9a8ab8028f7a170572ff08_h.jpg" /> /What my parents named me: Estella Selene Amaranth
/How many years I've been alive: Appears to be 26 /How I've acted my whole life: Selene comes off as as an evil which, one full of lies and trickery although she is anything but, evil. She is a quiet, withdrawn, and mysterious person. /What I am in this story: Mother Witch/What spells are my favorites?Well...: Hexes/curses, voodooism and potions/My past: Selene is neither a good or bad witch, simply a person who had seen the world much more than the age she appears. A little too much of one or the other tends to set her off balance, yet she chose the darker arts of witch craft. Villagers, travelers, knights and mercenaries all alike avoided her and much like other women, Selene craved to be loved and because of what she was, she received none out of fear. With what she knew, she created a love potion thus resulting giving birth to a beautiful little girl nine months later. She regretted deeply for what she a done as she released the father, erased his memory of the incidence and returned him to his wife and children. Although she taught Larxene to use magic at a young age, she worries deeply that her daughter may not be loved and wedded as she was due to their nature.Head Alchemist 
/What my parents named me: Torok Winterstorm
/How many years I've been alive: looks 25
/How I've acted my whole life: Torok is always calm and collective always looking out for the other wich's saftey and needs, he is very protective of the others. but is sometimes thought of being crazy /What I am in this story: The alchemist /What spells are my fovourites?Well...: i use potions not spells but my favorite potions are, potion of fire, potion of alteration, and alchemical explosive /My past: Most of his past is a mystery well he wont tell you about his childhood but he was all ways one for making random potions just to see the outcome reading book after book until he found something he liked. he has all ways been there for the witch's and always will, either as a father, a brother, and a best friend, he doesn't mind he just likes the company. Torok has even experimented on himself one such potion gave him another set of fully functioning arms, the others offered to get rid of them but he told them not to for its the only way he can learn from his mistakes. Torok does leave sometimes for days on end out in search for new ingredients or trading with the outside world however he doesn't if he doesn't have to and only does once or twice every few months, he never tells anyone who he is or where he comes from and never goes into the kingdom only trades with merchants on the roads. no one knows the swamp better then he does except the witch's hes one of the best hunters when they need him to be and only hunts the things that endanger the village even trespassers from the outside world, all thou he is the alchemist he knows how to wield a sword and bow with ease and efficiency.Dryad 
/What my parents named me:Aspen
/How many years I've been alive: 80 years, but looks young. She has been alive as long as her tree has been around.
/How I've acted my whole life: Aspen is a shy and sweet girl. She will hide in her tree if you are being mean or rude, but if you are nice to her, she will come out and talk to you maybe. /What I am in this story: Dryad /What spells are my fovourites?Well...: Aspen doesn’t do spells, but she does have abilities, or powers. She can control the tree she is connected to, which is connected to other trees of the same species, allowing her to move from aspen tree to aspen tree, she can communicate with plants, and she can communicate some with animals. /My past: Aspen has been in the swamp all her life. She was “born” when her tree that she is connected to began to grow. As soon as her tree had been around long enough to look like an actual tree, she emerged from it and explored as far as she could go from her tree, which wasn’t far. She soon learned her abilities and began to work to expand them. At some point, she realized she lived just outside a grove and wandered inside, making friends with the witches who lived inside.
