The Dead Men

Right so I said I'd get this done, and I may as well get it done before next session before I humanise them too much, so let's get started on the other characters.

Player names have not been changed to protect the innocent, because I'm lazy, and I'd probably forget at some point, but they have been shortened to the first letter because that's easy to remember, I'll try to keep this in Gulag's perspective from this point on, anything in this text colour is just me

First up is Legatus Nero, played by M (No he is not Judi Dench)

May as well get my journel started now, got a moment of peace and quiet for a change, so how to start, not much point in writing about myself until the end, what to do, what to do. Writing about my companions seems like a good start, well a neutral start, but I need to say something at their funerals this should help.

Where do I start, well the ones who survived this long seems like a good start, so lets talk about Nero. He is, in no uncertain terms, a Malai, incapable of restraint, damaging to the team, interested only in himself and overly proud of re-inventing the wheel, a recent encounter might do something about his over-abundance of  malaikur, but I doubt it, and judging by the conversations I've been over-hearing he's going to run out of thurirli that'll stand up for him soon enough.

Valyri, played by A

And the other long-term Survivor, besides me, would be Valyri, a Ingoeth, a Drow for those of you that don't speak Draconic. I would be hard pressed to call her a good person, mostly because of her heritage, but she fled from those dark cities for her own reason, and that's enough to give her a chance to prove herself better than the rest her pale-eyed kin.

Decided to found a, what did she call it, a 'PMC' with Nero, during the 4 years we spent apart for the purpose of hunting down rogue magic users, and summoners, and is constantly trying to find a man who's seltur persvek wer fothisev. Also she's holding onto one of the most powerful magical artefacts in existance, just thought that important to mention.

Darnis Corvo (Darnus Corveu) Nobody knows how to say or spell his name besides his player, running joke at this point, played by V (not that V)

 Moving onto my less long term kiabili, we have Darnus, a human slinger, who for some reason chose to lug a cumbersome rifle and scope into a cramped, enclosed space, where we'd be fighting small, acrobatic thieves in their home turf. Granted I don't think it's the pure unthinking malaikur of Nero, but he is incredibly sharten, almost to the point of his death several times, refusing silver bullets on a wererat hunt, walking into enemy territory without proper backup, deciding to try and venture through a pitch-black labyrinth without torches or food are just a few example of what I'm sure is a life full of suicidal choices that he somehow managed to survive.

More to the point I think he may infected with Lycanthropy, not only did he charge into a den of Wererats, he was dragged back out by our healer, while covered in wounds, and the day after they spent a fair bit of time together speaking privately. If he doesn't turn next full moon all the better, but I'm going to be sleeping with my gun under my pillow, and silver bullets loaded.

Also has promised me a slow and painful death for tripping him over a cliff, long, boring story, I might put it in here if I've got slow day at some point.

Usagi, played by C.M, new character, old one died in Wererats den previous session.

I'm completely new to this one, he looks like a cat if someone cut its head off and stitched to a halflings body, awkwardly

Lady (Name Unknown), Played by K, New character old one died in wererat den previous session.

 Once again I'm completely new to this one, she hasn't even taken her armour off, I'm guessing she's a female, othewise she's a man who wants to be called Lady, and I'm not going to touch that with a Dragons tail.

And a quick translation of the draconic I put in here

Malai = Idiot
Malaikur = Idiocy
Thurirli = Friends
Ingoeth = Drow
seltur persvek wer fothisev = Soft in the Head
Kiabili = Companions
Sharten = Stubborn

and if you want to use the translator I used it can be found here
