Spoiler: ShowHide

The third daughter of a champion fist fighter and an accomplished blacksmith, Serena Bell could very well have grown up in the shadows of her sisters and parents. Thankfully she really didn't, as her sisters were both much older then her, and her father was overjoyed to finally have a daughter more interested in studying mechanics and metallurgy then the martial arts so he did everything he could to encourage her education. One year, this happened to include paying a hefty apprentice fee for her to study magic under the tutelage of one of his frequent customers, a decision that certainly shaped her life.

Serena took to transmutation like a pig to mud(duck to water could also be used, but there was far more mess involved then that), considering the practice simply "smithing in magical form". She spent the next few years split between studying magic, keeping up with her smithing and engineering skills, and even taking up stickfighting(since her mother's penchant for violence didn't entirely miss her as her father had hoped). From time to time she also put on magic shows, either just to entertain the local kids or to make some pocket change. Everyone kept waiting for her to burn out from stretching herself so thin, but almost as if she was doing it just to contrary she thrived under it.

A few months prior to the voyage, she changed a bit. She had found a strange ring, and became nearly obsessed with it, trying to discover where it came from and what it really does. After finding no clues for some time, her initial extreme obsession has died down, though the ring still never leaves her hand.

Finally the day her parents were dreading came. For reasons known only to her, Serena decided to join the ship going to New Rubald, bringing her magical and mechanical expertise to the expedition. Like both of her sisters before her, Serena was leaving home. Her parents could only hope that this time, the daughter would manage to return...

Background

Spoiler: ShowHide

Background: Walce lived in the capital city Rubald, studying under his father and alongside his younger brothers the smithing trade. Walce was good at it, though perhaps not as good as his second brother; however, he was happy with it, and that was what counted, after all.

However, when he turned fifteen, and his brother was fourteen, it had to be decided which of the brothers would inherit the business. The father, unable to decide between duty to his firstborn and respect for his secondborn, was about to split the business, when Walce decided for the family; he vanished one night, leaving a note behind giving the business to his brother. While suspicion abounded regarding this turn of events, the second brother, Jakeb, swore under a paladin's gaze that he had done nothing to sway his brother, and would have been content to split the business.

Two and a half years later, when the family decided to make the crossing across the grand sea as the colony's official smiths, Walce quietly reappeared, seemingly more experienced and none the worse for wear for his disappearance - and none seemed more glad to see him than Jakeb, whose reputation had not yet fully recovered from the incident. Walce calmly confirmed the departure had been of his violition, and explained the disappearance:

The night of his disappearance, he had written the note, planning on leaving town with a few friends to seek fame and fortune elsewhere. However, on looking out his window, in the eastern forest a bright light was glowing, prompting him to head out and investigate. What he found, deep within the woods, was a team of druids, performing a ritual of communication with distant friends across the ocean. Intrigued, Walce requested to join the group, and was accepted amongst the group after some training and the abandonment of his metalcrafting skills. This training kept him within the woods for those long years, out of touch with family and the rest of civilization.

Two years later, he had been requested to go with a group of colonists across the sea in part, this was for the furtherment of his training, but also for the sake of the team of druids, whose attempts to re-establish contact with their comrades over there had failed. Out of concern, Walce was being dispatched there; in addition to having family also making the journey, he was yet young and could afford the sea voyage. While his father did not quite approve of Walce's new path in life, as Jakeb's skills yet remained unmatched and Walce seemed happy... well. If the family would be together in the new colony, at least in part, then how could he but accept this turn of events?

As the voyage across the sea took place, he practiced the martial craft of the druids while the forests were denied to him. Now, as the group finally landed at New Rubald and had established themselves, Walce looked out into the forest - if the druids of this land were still out there, he would have to find them somehow...


Family: Mother (Mura, 39, Lady of the House), Father (Walce Sr., 47, Low-level City Administrator Of No Real Import), Brothers (Jakeb, 18, Head Blacksmith; Baln, 15; Kit, 12), Sisters (Phe, 17, Trader; Laike, 12)


Appearance: Tall and somewhat dim-looking at a glance, Walce's broad build and generally unmemorable face have a constant easy grin on them even since emerging from the forest. Loose, baagy breeches looped on with old rope and a slightly used vest riddled with pockets are the main articles of clothing he wears; a leather barding on his left hand for Bazil, the hawk he brought with him, makes the only real accessory he bothers to wear. Unruly red hair and permanent stubble, combined with heavy amounts of body and arm hair, give him a somewhat apelike appearance, though he doesn't seem overly concerned about such matters.
