Hayfa Ashemark​

Full Name: Hana Alysone Hayfa Ashemark
Gender: Female
Age: 19
Species: Plains People/Dwarf/Superior Fury
Magic?: Yes
Magic Element: Stone Magic
Physical Appearance: Hayfa stands at about 5 ft 4" is rather stout as she tends to favour her more dwarven heritage. Her skin is a medium brown that she inherited via her father and paternal grandmother. She has black hair that is cropped very close to her head. Her eyes are dark grey. Her right arm is a plain mechanical steel arm. Hayfa typically dresses like this when she isn't doing spy work. She wears more modern dresses when she does her spy work along with various wigs and such.
Home Town: Azuris, Central Province
Occupation: Spy for the Mah Family
Character Connections: Jerrot Ashemark(twin brother), Torcall Ashemark(adoptive father), Shobna Ashemark(adoptive mother), three elder brothers(adoptive), two older sisters(adoptive), Alysone Clan(birth family-she refuses to acknowledge them now)
Personality: Hayfa was always a bold and willful child. She was never afraid to try new things, make friends, or question things endlessly. She saw no problems with this. These were qualities her older brother displayed and their father admired them for it. She remained stubbornly this way even though she was constantly being criticized by the elders for not being more passive. As an adult she is still bold, but a little less willful because her current job requires her to be able to follow orders a little more. She is also very protective of the people who she holds dear. The people she is most protective of in the world are Jerrot and her adoptive family. You mess with one of them and she will seek vengeance. She is very slow to warm up to anyone else, as her birth family's banishment of her and her brother left her with many insecurities and severe abandonment issues. If she has to work with someone it is kept strictly professional. Hayfa also displays a remarkable talent for reading people and situations.

Backstory: Hayfa Ashemark was born Hana Alysone. The Alysone clan was one of the wandering clans of the western plains. The Alysone clan is a clan that extremely patriarchal. Men were expected to be the fierce warrior types and women were to stay home and care for the homestead. The clan never produced many members with magic and of course the few magic wielders were expected to be plant manipulator. Enter the twins Hana and Ivon. The first few years of their lives were relatively normal. Hana lived at home with mother, older sisters, and twin brother. She also had two older brothers that were considered men at that point and were often away fighting. There were some slight problems. Hana was always the more bold and combative of the two twins. She was consistently getting into fights on her brother's behalf. This alone led to general disapproval among her grandparents and aunts and uncles. When at four and she started showing signs of having rock magic(and Ivon air magic) things started to spiral. Accusations were lobbied about adultery and so forth. No one in the family knew that a great-great grandmother had once rebelled against family traditions and her own controlling husband by having a discreet affair with a wandering dwarf/fury trader. In the end they kept the twins on for another eight years since they were already named within the clan and as long as they could bend the twins to their traditions.

Hana and Ivon were eventually dead named(kicked out of the clan) in the year they turned twelve. Hana was in constant rebellion against the confining gender roles of the clan and Ivon was too much of a peacekeeper for their liking. Their mother abandoned them to a soldier who was heading home from a tour in the army. This army soldier was named Torcall Ashemark, a man of the river people, who took in the twins along with his orc wife. It was Torcall who gave her the name Hayfa after his mother. Hayfa was very slow to warm up to her new family as she kept expecting them to drop her any minute like her birth family did. It was probably three years before she realized they were they type who were never going to let her go. Hayfa became very defensive about her new family and refused to acknowledge that her first one even existed even more. During her childhood this sometimes led to ridicule, especially by those who could tell she was a hybrid who didn't look like either of her parents. This stopped as she repeatedly beat up anyone who teased her.

Her mother Shobna got her and Jerrot into formal education and arranged for them to have magic teachers. Hayfa really enjoyed school and her training. For the first time she wasn't being held back from learning everything. This led to be her being rather overzealous in her studies...trying to cram as much knowledge as she could into her brain. It fascinated her to learn about all the different species and their cultures. But more then that she loved learning to control her magic. It always felt like a way to challenge the anger she often felt. Hayfa did lose an arm in training accident the first time she tried controlling metal instead of rock. Her new older siblings pitched in money to buy her a metal arm. She developed an appreciation for science at this time. While there were many who thought the world should favour one over the other....she truly believes that their needs to be some sort of balance.

At eighteen she joined the spy corps. Shobna was the one who got her the job, as out of all of her children Hayfa displayed the most aptitude for her line of work. The nineteen year old's devotion to the Empress and her family is absolute.

Jerrot Ashemark​

Full Name: Ivon Alysone Jerrot Ashemark
Gender: Male
Age: 19
Species: Plains People/Dwarf/Superior Fury
Magic?: Yes
Magic Element: Air
Physical Appearance: Light brown skin, 5 ft 7 ". His hair is a kind of sandy brown colour. His eyes are a very light blue.
Home Town:
Occupation: Governor(Nanny) to the Royal Children
Character Connections: Hayfa Ashemark(twin sister), Torcall Ashemark(adoptive father), Shobna Ashemark(adoptive mother), three elder brothers(adoptive), two older sisters(adoptive), Alysone Clan(dead named family)
Personality: Jerrot has always been a peacekeeper. He will often interject himself into people's arguments and try and find a way to resolve things without violence. The nineteen year old also possesses an almost endless amount of patience and isn't one to anger easily. His general natures seems to suggest to a lot of people that he is a put of a push over, but this isn't quite true. He is honestly one of the most stubborn people alive and will cling to his beliefs no matter how much people push him to change them.
Backstory: The young man was born Ivon Alysone of the Plains People. He was a quiet child with a gentle nature. Ivon had almost no interest in fighting anyone. He may have eventually gained respect with his abilities to lead his fellow children, but his unwillingness to join the warriors of his clan drove everyone to almost endless impatience(except for Hana, but she fit in no more then he did). Then came the whole drama of his having air powers and his sister having stone. He tried to be especially good during this time and was very very helpful to his parents at the time because he didn't want to get kicked out of the clan. In the end the Alysone kept him and his sister on for another eight years when no one could quite prove how they came to have the gifts they did, but it was a strain on everyone involved in the situation. When his mother gave him and his twin up to the passing Ashemark soldier it was something of a relief to the young boy.

His views on their adoption were much different then his sister's. For instance he knew deep down inside that his birth mother was probably doing the best thing for them. They just didn't fit with their birth family anymore and rather then continue to make everyone miserable she passed them on to someone who would be able to love them better. Renamed Jerrot, he loved his adoptive family and took to them rather quickly. He loved when he was put into school and started to make some friends nearer to his own age who didn't care so much about clan traditions. He became especially beloved by many of the younger children in the neighborhood.

He went into service as governor to the Wah princess when he was sixteen since he displayed quite the aptitude for teaching and it was thought that he might be able to give them perceptive on a different walk in life.

Character Connections: Elena Warridge(Wife), Atticus Warridge(Son), Lukas Warridge(Son), Royal Family(Advisor to), Conclave members(fellow council members)
Personality: Cassius has always been an extremely ambitious person. He likes to plan things out an be in charge of things. He will do endless favours for people in order to get what he wants. People view him as someone who is extremely generous and a good listener. Cassius is also withdrawn. He doesn't talk much about his own past except for things he finds convenient to tell people. He is also very very careful to not let people know exactly how prejudiced he is against magic users. The words he speaks are always chosen with extreme care, if he doesn't think it's important he won't say it.
Backstory: Cassius Warridge was born to a minor noble family in nothern Iagreth. This may seem like somewhat of a big deal, but it isn't. The Warridge family's area of control was one near the Grayback mountains where life was hard and settlements few and far between. The Warridge "manor" was little more then a wooden long hall in the small village of Lorlea with only four or five other dwellings under their control. The family also had to pitch in towards some of the more heavy work in order for survival. The family weren't even that respected. Most of the praise in that part of the world was saved for the ice mages who were able to help stave off some of the ill effects of the cold weather. Needless to say Cassius hated his upbringing, and grew to have a resentment for people with magic in their blood. He didn't even wait until he was twenty one to leave his home, Cassius packed up and left by the time he was eighteen.

His first move brought him to a city on the border between the north and central provinces. It was here he first made a name for himself in politics. Cassius made an advantageous marriage to a woman named Sofie Pernell there that advanced him in rank. She was the one who gave him his first son Atticus. He also made friends. Lots and lots of friends. The young man went among the commons and listened to what people there had to say about improving living conditions and he would bring this back to his own peers. In turn he would do favours for the nobility and procure things for them through his growing list of contacts.

Cassius also did a couple stints in the army. He used his time not only to show his love for Iagreth but to make even more friends who could help him later. His wife sadly died during his last tour in the army. He went home to mourn her for the appropriate length of time and then moved his household in the capital city. Once more he did what he does in every place he visits. Cassius eventually drew the attention of the empress and he found himself becoming a member of the conclave. He also married his second wife Elena and had his second son Lukas.

He puts a lot of money towards hospitals, universities, and other projects that value science and engineering. He's very careful to put his lot into other projects though as to not show favoritism though.
