    Name: Jaylyn Sinclair

    Kingdom: Aerosia

    Homeland: The capital of Burg, Aerosia

    Age: 16

    Gender: Female

    Appearance: Jaylyn’s parents both had blond hair and green eyes, and of course, their daughter inherited those traits. Her light hair is faded to almost a platinum blond from her long days in the sun, which combined with her tan skin gives the perfect picture of summertime. Her easy smile is accented with rosy, dimpled cheeks, flushed lips, and straight, white teeth. She stands slightly shorter than what would be considered common, but still managed to grow taller than her mother. Jaylyn’s body is lean and is clearly used to its full, athletic potential on a daily basis, but she lacks (and secretly envies) the womanly curves that some of her friends have acquired.

    Class: Healer in training

    Weapons: Two flintlock pistols, a gift from her father, ride low on her hips. The girl also always keeps a dagger hidden in her leather boot, less for self defense, and more as an act of defiance as her mother refuses to allow Jaylyn to wear her other weapons inside the house.

    Clothing: She usually chooses clothing for comfort rather than fashion, and the young girl never, ever chooses a skirt. Her usual outfits consist of fitted pants and a loose, flowing top. In colder weather, she prefers a man’s jacket to a cloak.

    Accessories: As a surprising feminine touch, she does like wearing jewelry, and she often has jingling bracelets and a long necklace. Her hair is often tied into a high ponytail with ribbons of green and gold, or dotted with seashells that she collected on a nearby shore.

    Special Abilities:
    ~Minor healing: the ability to heal minor cuts, bruises, and other wounds on her own power
    ~Minor cleansing: the ability to cleanse a body of non-life threatening poisons
    ~Knowledge of medicines: Jaylyn has been trained in creating and mixing potions and medicines from natural and manufactured ingredients. This includes an extensive knowledge of plants and their uses.
    ~Empathy: When using her healing powers, Jaylyn can feel what her patient is feeling. This can be a boon or a curse, as it can help her find the sources sickness, or can impede her abilities when having to work through the pain.

    Likes: Open spaces, the smell of nature, new things, and the family dog.

    Dislikes: Staying indoors, restrictions, when someone withholds information from her

    Persona: Despite her minimal stature, Jaylyn is a spunky, excitable explorer. She knows the land around her home like the back of her hand, but still searches it thoroughly every day in hopes of finding something new. During the rare time she spends resting and relaxing, the girl revels in the smell of the nearby ocean, wondering what adventures lie beyond the waves. She has a friendly attitude, and a quick wit, but lacks patience. Everything about her is fast and in the moment.

    Brief History: It took some time for her parents to decide on a permanent home, as both her parents had been wanderers in their youth. Eventually they settled on the quiet island of Aerosia, in the coastal town of Burg. Wren, a healer, easily found work in the city, and Raphael, formerly a pirate, still was able to sail the seas he loved as the captain of a merchant ship. While they had previously been adventurers, the couple wanted a more quiet, secure life for their only child as she grew. Jaylyn inherited her mother’s ease in learning the ways of healing, and Wren did her best to train the girl to follow her in that profession. But Jaylyn also inherited her father’s wanderlust, and training with her mother was not without complaint. She had trouble paying attention to her lessons, her eyes constantly roaming to a window and her mind drifting to imaginary adventures in far off lands.

    Frustrated, and a bit worried that her daughter would run off on some perilous voyage the first chance she got, Wren consented to allow her husband to teach her how to use his firearms and the art of fencing. She also did her best to allow Jaylyn to burn off her nearly endless supply of energy by wandering the land around their home unsupervised. The doting mother fretted whenever her daughter was out of sight, and she always wished the girl would change her mind and choose a healer’s path. Raphael, on the other hand, took great pride in his little girl who could outrun most of the boys in town and brawl with the best of them.

    Kin (family): Raphael Sinclair (father), and Wren Avari Sinclair (mother)

    In case of absent who will replace me: Kris or Mysti (as you know, I’m sure!)

His face is adorned with stubble and his tanned to the point of being sun damaged. The rest of him hasn't faired much better with the hard life of the trail taking it's toll.

Over his shirt is first a no frills vest with small pockets and over that is a single bandolier holding cartridges of a pistol caliber. Over everything a leather duster is worn for protection from the sun and for warmth at night. Cliven wears a wide brimmed cowhide hat and leather gloves rounding out his rough appearance

    Brief History:What is said about Cliven is mostly rumor. However what those rumors say does hit very close to fact.
    Cliven was for the most part of his life a bandit of sorts. And a good one to, he and his gang had made a name for themselves hitting caravans as they made their way across Sigard. taking some wealth, ad leaving in a whirlwind. Usually everyone came out alive and the targets could recover, after all why just take everything. Better to leave them with enough to come back and get hit again.

    Unfortunatly one heist went wrong. Several were killed and to make a long story short Cliven has to watch his back for both his former gang and the autorites. Left on his own Cliven eventually found himself near an outpost that he later discovered was dedicated to reserch with a goal of improving the odds of normal soldiers against magic users. Cliven snuck in and made his way what was apparently an assembly area where a firearm of the most unusual design. Alnog with it as apparently a revolving chamber pistol designed to work with the newly introduced metal cartidges. At that time the alarm was raised and Cliven, ever the oprtunist snagged both guns and bolted on a stolen horse he later named Avel.

    Now with the autorites hot on his trail Cliven made the choice to leave Sigard, Cliven made his way to a port city and bought the cheapest ticket he could and threw his fate to the wind.

    Kin (family): All deceased.
    In case of absent who will replace me: I'm almost never missing.

    An early propellant used in muzzleloading firearms,
    Known for its black cloud produced after it exposes.

    It's effectively the precursor to what we know as gunpowder. Though not modern smokeless ball or rod powder used in centerfire cartridges.

    How in the hell did UKC go from bows and arrows to smokeless powder in less than two decades?
