Civilla Alazario: Changeling scholar and Arcanist with occult ties beyond the material world. The family Alazario (motto: Sword Or Pen, We Conquer All) have branches all over the former Chelish empire, and scions of the House include a Pirate Captain of the Shackles. The core branches are loyal to House Thrune, but heavy influence from the Varisian branch in Magnimar causes internal conflict. The Alazarios live their lives by 5 questions and the 4th - Who do you serve and who do you trust? - weighs heavily on Civilla's mind.
Ayva Romanya: Half-Elf Tattooed Sorcerer. Her earliest years are a mystery but at a young age she was taken as a slave by Dwarven followers of Droskar the Dark Smith. She took to the life of toil like a fish to water, honing her craft as she grew.
When her 'Parents' mysteriously went to the Dark Furnace early she set out on her own, keeping her joy of 'frivolous' painting as her comfort. "Adventure and toil awaits!"
Rajira Ononda: A Vishkanya, exotic humanoids with a proficiency for poisons. Since she’s also a Rogue, an opera diva-in-training, and devotee of Calistria the goddess of lust and revenge, woe betide anybody that attracts her ire.
Terzo Porcinus: A dissolute bard, who used to be highly experienced but lost most of those skills because he hasn’t actually worked in years, on top of two decades of wine for breakfast. If the Pickled Ham industry ever needs a mascot, Terzo is their man.
Terzo is a Poet Provocateur, and tutor to Civilla and to a lesser extent Rajira prior to all the current excitement. But with friends like Civilla, Rajira, and Ayva, regaining a long-suppressed optimism that Kintargo will once again be a free city.
(Terzo is also the only Good member of the party, too. Our rebellion has been so secretive that we've been nicknamed the Ghosts of Kintargo, most of the militia are actually our agents, and we've also convinced half the population that Thrune’s bodyguard Nox is one of the good guys now. Although Civilla did just try to assassinate Thrune at the Ruby Masquerade after he unveiled his own fake Nox, so gods knows what's going to happen next)
