Significant characters the PCs encounter will be listed here.
The Arboretum
Gnash
A stout half-orc with a history as a mercenary, Gnash (she/they) wears a short, well-kept mohawk that fully reveals the burn scar covering the left side of her head and the nub of an ear remaining there. She arrived at the Arboretum in bad condition in 134 PR and stayed on out of gratitude after Dulfri and Misfit patched her up.
Newcomers are put off by her serious attitude and her terse, formal speech, but locals value her willingness to share her expertise in hand-to-hand combat techniques with those willing to help defend the unusual trade hub. She spends much of her time assisting Gooey in keeping order in the relatively lively bit of wasteland surrounding the ancient tree.
The Junkyard
Raegina
Cambion leader of the junkyard, Raegina was sent by her duchess to find the remnants of infernal weapons left in the Pteris desert to face the incoming invasion of demons on Quelmar. She settled in the Western Badlands when she found some old war machine remnants there and a small uptick in abyssal attacks. She worked to kill any demon in her path and collected everything she could along the way to build the Junkyard, a place of destruction and creation.
Baftzmyr
(In Common: Butcher)
Once the daughter of the leader of a lorekeeping tribe, Baftzmyr, a high elf, was the lone survivor in an abyssal attack, hidden among their tribes writings. When she emerged from her hiding place, all she saw was a large woman with red wings, slaughtering the demons that had killed her people. She took Raegina's offer to come under her wing and dissect demons as an act of vengeance for her kin. She keeps her tribes traditions alive by keeping the lore of the events of the Demonic Infiltration in Pteris and wearing her father's headdress and cloak.
Kicyr
(In Common: Baker)
Sent by an underground city that feared the presence of Raegina and her growing Junkyard in the desert, Kicyr was to assassinate the cambion, but was caught by Baftzmyr's keen detection. The two wrestled and when Baftzmyr was on the verge of killing Kicyr, Raegina made the half-elf an offer: abandon your city and come be my poisoner. Simply looking not to die, the girl accepted and was given her infernal title of Kicyr, as do all of Raegina's hell-touched.
Cilvdywzutca and Picyr
(In common: Candlestick and Maker)
An undead human woman that Raegina continues to bring back time and time again, Cilvdy's primary purpose is to tinker with bombs that will draw the attention and then the destruction of demons. She just-- isn't very good at it and has a tendency to blow herself up in the process. She often makes bombs out of little origami animals, the one love she's carried with her from when she was alive. Often close by to Cilvdy is Picyr, a crow that was nibbling on Cilvdy when Raegina found her corpse and is still waiting around for his snack. He's protective of his meal though, so watch out for your eyes!
Jictwal
The junkyard dog, this friendly desert vulpine runs the scrap shop in the junkyard's entrance and can be found there to buy and sell what the adventurers of the Arboretum are looking for. He sells the scrap for double its value to make money for the Junkyard.
