== Aria Valenford''' ''' ==
== Aria Valenford''' ''' ==
Elder sister of [[Ynnis Valenford]].  Aria is one of the few cleric/bards in her city of [[Jewelspar]], and was an expert at both musical magic and health and spiritual magic. She operates a clinic ("'''Aria Health'''") in the city, where her brother Ynnis and his friends just happened to be visiting.
Elder sister of [[Ynnis Valenford]].  She reversed the effects of a bardic spell that caused [[Andif]] to become Enlarged.
 
Besides her practice, Aria has a son (Ynnis' nephew) and a family who live in a small estate in the city. When Ynnis' friend [[Andif]] screwed up some bardic magic, Aria was asked to step in and reverse the process. Which she did so, in return for Ynnis and his friends babysitting the young Valenford. The players did so, but ran into difficulty when the kid stepped into one of Jewelspar's many ripples of shadow that pass into its shadow city, [[Shadespar]].
 
Eventually, she reversed the effects of a bardic spell that caused [[Andif]] to become Enlarged.
 
== Bravery ==
'''Bravery''' was a tiefling who showed up in a single session when the team was faced with the magical darkness of the [[Banites]]. They could not look through the Banite's chambers to see their secret society mission, but luckily for them, by writing "HELP WE NEED MAGICAL DARKVISION" on a sign and busking on the streets of [[Galik]] they crossed paths with a helpful Tiefling, who's Devil's Sight allowed them to see the destruction of '''Bruneld Redmane''', the head of the dragonborn who would later become [[The Crown of Empyrosis]].

Line 18: Line 10:


When [[Croach]] put Yro on at the Pawn Shop, he was instructed on how to find Brontalo, and told to give Brontalo the crown. Upon touching Yro, however, Brontalo fell dead on his kitchen floor, kicking off the great mystery: What is this Crown, what power does it hold, and what to do with it?

== Cethfhas ==
'''Cethfhas''' (pronounced kay-os.), was the bickering sister of [[Caoilfhoinn]] , but when Cethfhas was lost at sea on a Sparklemas Barge, Caolifhoinn showed she did care about her sister, rushing to her side after finding out she was rescued. They did fight, but ultimately the two could return back to their homeland in [[Osugbo]] to celebrate the next year's [[Sparklemas]] with their parents.
== Colwan and Garrison ==
Colwan is a Human, Garrison is a Elf. The two of them were [[Ynnis Valenford Sexton|Ynnis Valenford]]'s friends before he became cursed. They were actually there when he got the curse, and lied to his college and family to cover for him.
Since then have made up about a dozen stories about what Ynnis has been up to because people ask them about him.
Stories include:
* Inventing a new type of Bacon
* Practicing Puppetry
* A hero in the "Battle of Three Bops" in Osugbo
* Reviewing Bungalows around the world

== Dorbug Corbina ==
[[File:Exorb.png|thumb|Logo of Corbina's shop]]
'''Dorbug Corbina''' was an [[artificer]] gnome in [[Galik]] who specialized in orbs. He ran a shop called '''Exorbitant Orbitants'''. Members of the team, investigating leads on the [[Orb of Gales]], went to Corbina and bought his most powerful storm orb. His shop's inventory included all of the below.
Not much can be said of Dorbug himself, but he tended to act much more higher class than he actually was. He might have had a passing resemblance to PM David Cameron.

== Kugutsi ==
'''Kugutsi''' was the Majordomo of Golkont the Hawk Mage (see above). Kugutsi was a summoned Arcanaloth that followed all of Golkont's commands. Kugutsi eventually sunk the Ellipses through powerful water magic. Golkont used Kugutsi as much as possible in public so that people attributed him as a close associate of Golkont. This was because Golkont himself was a disguised Arcanaloth, and if ever caught without his disguise, many would simply think Golkont was Kugutsi.


== Lucian DiGennaro ==
== Lucian DiGennaro ==
'''Lucian DiGennaro''' was [[Andif|Andif's]] master and trainer at the [[Laergul]] school of Bardic Arts. Andif ran away from school, and from his tutelage, as he seemed to prize her powers in unnatural ways. Andif's great potential never missed Lucian, and he tried everything to get her back to the school so he could mold her great powers. After Andif played at a city formal in [[Galik]], Lucian had this message sent her way.<blockquote>Andif,
News has reached me of a particular public performance in Galik that no doubt bears [[List of Quelmar Spells#Brown Note|certain brown markings]] of my education. When I heard someone was using this dirty magic in public I knew immediately that you must be in the city. If this reaches you, I hope you hear me out this final time. You are my most powerful protégée and the loss of you from the Bardic College is a loss for all of us. Your training isn't complete and imagine just how many more things I can still teach you. As a favor and to entice you to return to finish your bardic college degree, I've included the second half of the Nota Marrone composition, allowing you to enhance the piece with your arcane abilities.
I am where I have always been, and am delightfully your servant in training,
Lucian DiGennaro</blockquote>


== Mahabhuta ==
== Mahabhuta ==
'''Mahabhuta''' was an 800 years old Winter [[Eladrin]] [[artificer]] and one of few surviving eladrin in the PR era of [[The War of Essence]]. An incredible magician, Mahabhuta is also able to create '''Devastation Orbs''' of Air, Water, and Fire, though her mentor died in the essence war before she could learn earth.
'''Status: Dead'''


Mahabhuta had come to Warukami with her granddaughter [[Frori Predestine|Frori]] to meet at the Demon-Exorcist's exhibit (see ''Master Hyder'', below). Hopiong to forgive and befriend the inner demons of her life. Unfortunately for her, in her current feeble state, she could not control the monster, and it has fled the town and out into the world. Now even weaker after the exhibition, she is relying on her granddaughter and former student Frori to track down the demon.
An elderly [[Eladrin]] woman who was grandmother to Frori. The party encountered her in [[Warukami]], where her inner demon had taken a material form and frozen the harbor, rendering the port inaccessible.  Upon retrieving and defeating the demon, the party learned that Mahabhuta used the [https://quelmarrealm.fandom.com/wiki/Tools_of_the_Primordial_Ancients#Orb%20of%20Gales Orb] and created a great storm long ago but struggled with the guilt that she felt over those actions.  Her inner demon vanquished, she was finally able to conclude her Final Winter and pass on peacefully.

Later in the adventure, the team learned much more about Mahabhuta and the other Eladrin sent to Quelmar from the [[Feywild]] by the [[Seelie Court]].  She and the others fought in the [[War of Essence]], where it was her specific duty to create a colossal storm in order to summon the Orb.

== Master Hyder ==
== Master Hyder ==
'''Master Hyder''' was a traveling [[Exorcery|Exorcerist]] (and secret Barbed Devil) who was touring the [[Troverth (Domain)|Troverth]] domain, due to the long standing history of Troverth people and demon superstition. '''Mahabhuta''' (see above) had come to Warukami to have her life's sins exorcized, to give her peace before she died. As strange as he was talented, he performed at least two procedures while he was in town: Mahabhuta, and [[Chet Sexton]].
Hyder has also performed in [[Xender City]] and [[Galik]] in his tour of Amusa. The team never discovered he was a Barbed Devil during the course of this campaign.

== Mong ==
'''Mong''' was a storm giant chief, who was impressed by [[Grindseed]]'s wreckless determination to save the realm, ultimately curbing his attempt at destroying the team, and deciding to hear them out. It was Mong who revealed that [[Golkont]] had been paying the storm giants to create a storm...which was secretly Golkont trying to summon the orb.
Later on, Grindseed would call upon Mong's aid, and Mong (plus a small team of storm giants) would arrive to help at the [[Arctic Altercation]], which ended the [[Arctic Autumn]] and finally stopped [[X (The Paladin)]].[[File:Barfromafar.png|left|thumb|247x247px|Muddy Hillcloak's menu, which contained a second menu if folded in half along a certain line.]]
== Muddy Hillcloak ==
Full name '''Muddatin Hillcloak,''' Muddy was a traveling barkeep with an official "[[Road-Housed Roadhouse]]" License which he named "The Bar From Afar". It's forged in dwarved metals, super valuable, and proves he underwent rigorous testing to ensure he can brew and serve no matter the weather or location. Inside his cart was a small tavern with enough room to sit 5 or 6 customers at a time, and Muddy himself worked as barkeep.
Muddy's "Bar from Afar" sold a number of drinks, but also useful "drinks" that people on the ride could use, such as potions of healing, or [[Moonflower]]<nowiki/>s.[[File:Nim.jpg|thumb|254x254px|Nim the Jewelspar Street Rat]]

== Nim ==
A orphaned or abandoned child who lived in [[Jewelspar]].  He began to exhibit abyssal traits (horns, wings) from a young age and is bullied and excluded by his peers because of them.  He looks up to [[Maverick]] as an adult who succeeded in life in spite of his Tiefling features.  In exchange for help sneaking around the city Maverick agreed to foster the child.

Nim had a best friend '''Clancy''' who was also an orphan in the city. Clancy would later prove to be the key to [[Rowan Buckman]] understanding that some Tiefling are special, they don't show their heritage until a "coming of age" or another event causes the lineage to appear.

'''Tia Ma''' (real name Tiane) was a long retired human adventurer who took up in her later years running the tavern of [[Warukami]], a place known as '''Drihaol'''. Her grandson, '''Tyr''', was her right hand man, and even though he was 15, he did most of the labor running around the place. Tia Ma and Tyr were both crucial to the team discovering the source of Warukami's strange weather, and the incorporation of [[Frori Predestine]] into the team.

However, before they got far into the interrogation, the group was ambushed by allies of Rowan and Edna, who managed to kill half the team and escape.

== Vorrow the Shaman ==
== Vorrow the Shaman ==
'''Vorrow''' was the resident shaman and advisor to the [[Warukami]] Mandador (the town leader). Vorrow was a crooked man in shape and demeanor, and took dark magic seriously, using it whenever possible to ensure he got what he wanted. Tasked with removing a clan of [[Sahuagin]] who had taken up residence on the town's coast, Vorrow posted bounties that he knew fiesty adventurers would take up. When the posting, labeled ''"WANTED: Powerful People who are great at fishing out trouble!" ,'' it brought several interested parties to town, including [[Chet Sexton]], the gnome [[Caoilfhoinn]], and [[Jedit]].
Unfortunately for all parties involved, Vorrow also tricked all parties involved into signing a [[Contract of Nepthas]], meaning if they failed to remove the fishfolk, they would be rendered blind, deaf, and mute.
Luckily for Vorrow, and for the heroes, they succeeded, and he paid them for their work.
