A Company Of Fools

     Player Characters 

Commander Gaz'ragar "Gaz" Stonehand

Played by: Stu

Race: Half-Orc
Class: Paladin (Oath of Redemption)

The current Commander of the Phoenix Legion, he assumed leadership when the previous Commander, Star, went AWOL for reasons unknown during their layover in Ravenreach. He joined up after the Legion saved him in the desert after he'd tried - foolishly - to approach an aggressive Orc encampment, where they beat him half-to-death and left him for dead, leaving his right lower-tusk broken. Since arriving in Grovhaire, he's often expressed a preference for the actual field of battle in its stead.

Silver: The Commander is like a hero out of a storybook. Like the stories my mom would tell me about. Flaming sword, pure of heart, can convince devils to surrender on the spot! I have seen him talk his way into devils surrendering in front of him. He also has a stick up his ass about lying and cheating people, so if you're gonna do that, don't do it in front of him.

—

  • Casual Kink: When attending a party for Broker in episode 31, he went without his armor, but did bring some manacles along.
  • The Fettered: He believes that everyone should be offered redemption, and won't employ "dishonorable" tactics if it can reasonably be avoided.
  • Good Scars, Evil Scars: Not a scar, but he suffered a broken tusk when trying to approach an Orc tribe peacefully.
  • Martial Pacifist: While he prefers to convert enemies to allies, he'll absolutely end enemies once combat begins.
    • One prisoner asked to be given a swift execution rather than face a long, torturous death at the hands of his former allies, which Gaz obliges.
  • The Paladin: His class, and he hews very closely to it.
  • Punctuation Shaker: The only one with this naming convention.
  • Real Name as an Alias: When told he needed a Legion name, he went with "Gaz" - a shortening of his actual name.
  • Screw the Rules, I'm Doing What's Right!: Upon arriving in Grovhaire and learning that magic use in the city is restricted, he immediately cast "Calm Emotions" when a Giant was about to break its bonds on the docks, happily paying the fine for the minimized harm.
  • The Teetotaler: When offered a drink, his preferred beverage is apple juice.
  • Undying Loyalty: To the Legion as a whole, as their intervention had saved his life.

Captain Faegan "Tricks" Wyrmwood

Played by: Adam

Race: Half-elf
Class: Warlock (Fathomless [formerly Lurker in the Deep])

From the lands west of the Halrien desert, Faegan was born to parents on the run after eloping. they taught him how to survive on his own by taking what he needed but eventually the law came for them and they left Faegan in the care of a Gnome they knew. This Gnome initiated Faegan into her cult; The Cult of Dreamer. For his service, Faegan was granted the rare blessing of a pact with the dreamer. This enraged someone in the hierarchy who had Faegan accused of a murder he did not commit. After years in the mine/prison Ebonrock deep in the Halrien Desert (to keep him from his patron), Faegan was recruited into the legion when they came for shelter and in need of recruits. Since then his talent and his patron's power have seen him rise in the ranks of the legion. While he himself has little care of the rest of the world, he will do what he needs to to keep his newly found comrades safe and renowned... even if it is things they themselves would not.

Silver: Tricks is a little intense. Once he's... well, okay, Tricks gives a shit about nothing. He doesn't care about Grovhaire, he doesn't care about the nobles... Tricks, specifically, doesn't care about the nobles or care about the talking... He just wants us to, like, kill all of these stupid people and just get it over with. If you're straightforward with Tricks, he'll like you. And once he starts talking about his Patron or God or whatever it is - he's like, really into it.

—

  • Brutal Honesty: While he'll lie when it serves his purposes, he tends to be extremely blunt, and appreciates this in turn.
  • Damsel out of Distress: His capture by House Weston didn't even last a day before he engineered his own escape.
  • Deal With The Deep One: By virtue of being a Warlock.
  • Dream Walker: He gained this ability upon reaching level 9, and immediately planned to use it to give one of the Claws of Thundermaw night terrors, thereby depriving him of sleep.
  • Super Not-Drowning Skills: Has this ability due to his Warlock pact, which he put to effective use when fighting in the cove beneath the Citadel.
  • The Unfettered: He has absolutely no qualms about using anything to achieve his goals, but he still maintains his loyalty to the Legion.

Captain Harold "Preacher" Murin

Played by: Jon

Race: Human
Class: Cleric (Peace (formerly Unity) Domain)

Born in Grovhaire and raised by a merchant, he grew up aware of the Game and sought to avoid it. He joined the priesthood at a young age hoping for a quiet life of contemplation and service to Orad within his home of Grovhaire, only for the Orc Incursions to occur, causing him to be conscripted into the war effort because clerics were needed. In his very first battle, his unit was wiped out by a glory-seeking and incompetent commander. Near death, he was found and taken in by the Phoenix Legion, who nursed him back to health. He initially planned to leave, but found with the Legion a true feeling of camaraderie and purpose, and after he was whole, he officially joined, taking the name of Preacher. After finally returning home, he had hoped there'd be time to rest, but instead found both himself and the Legion thrust neck-deep into the game he initially sought to avoid. Despite all this, however, his faith in Orad has never wavered, and though he may be reluctant to play the Game, he's prepared to help his family escape the machinations around them and survive whatever may come their way.

Silver: The guy's a cleric but he is way more like a politician. So a priest for sure... He plays the game here in Grovhaire. I'm just glad he is on our side because if he worked for Keaton or something they would definitely be more of a threat. He keeps tabs on everything and every one. Really smart about the nobles and stuff, he keeps Gaz from Saying Too Much in those meetings... sometimes. I'll tell you what though. I think that he gets a bit pushy with people sometimes. He thinks he knows better than people and he isn't always nice about it. I just think it's cause he cares though.

—

  • Irony: Part of his motivation for joining the Legion was to escape The Game of Grovhaire, only to wind up plunged neck-deep into it because he's a Captain of the Legion.
  • Power at a Price: As a Peace Domain cleric, he's able to forge bonds with his allies - and if that ally becomes unconscious or dies in battle, he feels it happen.
  • Shell-Shocked Veteran: By virtue of his Domain and backstory, he keeps others at arms' length as a defense mechanism.
  • Sole Survivor: Part of his background, as his ineffectual commanding officer wound up getting the majority of his unit killed before being saved (and subsequently recruited) by the Legion.

Captain Bliss

Played by: Emmy

Race: Tiefling
Class: Bard (College of Eloquence)

  • Consummate Liar: She bragged about convincing two brothers that she wasn't sleeping with the other, despite having done so.

    Soldiers of the Legion 

Lt. Commander Silver

Race: Tiefling
Class: Rogue/Warlock
—

  • Deadpan Snarker: During his conversation with recently-appointed Captain Bliss, he gave her a quick rundown of each of the Captains from his perspective, which was peppered with quips.
  • Hero-Worshipper: Has a mild case of this in regards to Commander Gaz, viewing him as Made of Iron with Nerves of Steel, and describes him as stepping out of a storybook.
  • Mad Libs Catchphrase: Adopted one after being appointed Lt. Commander, prefacing statements with "As Lieutenant Commander, I say...", though largely because he had offered himself up as a joke, and believed that he was appointed as a joke.
  • Missing Mom: His mother was banished to Hell when he was a child - prior to that, it was a surprisingly loving family dynamic.

Sergeant Lukasz "Spectre"

Race: Half-Orc
Class: Echo Knight Fighter

     Former Members 

Lt. Commander Grixis "Broker" Neferox

Played by: Jon

Race: Human
Class: Rogue (Mastermind)

He started out with nothing, but he joined the Phoenix Legion to help his family financially. While his purpose is unclear to him, he loves to gather information and learn.

—

  • The Quiet One: He spends a lot of his time observing others during social interactions.
  • Retirony: When resigning his commission to go to another city with his parents, the going-away party was subject to an ambush - Broker survived, but it was a close thing.
  • The Spymaster: Serves in this capacity within the Legion, setting up information networks and making connections wherever they go.
  • Undying Loyalty: His alignment varies depending on who the Commander of the Legion is. Under Star, he had no hesitation with delivering a summary execution to an assassin, but under Gaz's leadership, he was unwilling to torture an assassin for information as he knew that his Gaz wouldn't approve of such a measure.

Captain Lapis "Sparks" Emberglow

Played by: Dio

Race: Dragonborn
Class: Rogue (Arcane Trickster)/ Artificer
Lapis Emberglow, better known as Sparks within the Legion, grew up in Reavenreach. She doesn’t like talking about herself or being the centre of attention that’s why she takes refuge with in the shadows where she can pass unnoticed. She is an artificer and merchant by profession and her family has a shop and workshop in the city, so if you happen to go to Ravenreach please come and visit her family’s shop. For a little more than a decade now Sparks has been part of the Phoenix Legion, in a position and circumstances that she had never imagined herself in.
Silver: Sparks will be your best friend. Emotional support or anything like that, Sparks will be your best friend, unless you corner her or try to touch her. Don't do either of those things. And if she gets you in a conversation, be prepared for it to go on for a long time.

—

  • Beware the Nice Ones: Do not threaten her parents.
  • Freak Out: She has one after learning that the strength of her scales' color denote that she'd be a noble in the Dragonborn lands.
  • Happily Adopted: Her parents are both halflings, and adopted her after having cleared a slaving vessel. Part of her reason for joining the Legion was to prevent her parents from being recalled into service.
  • Hates Being Touched: By virtue of being a Dragonborn, she constantly wears a hat that makes her look like a much shorter human woman - and the person that touches her will see her as her actual self.
  • The Pollyanna: She's organized hug groups within the Legion as a means to bolster emotional ties and give support to struggling soldiers.
  • Screw This, I'm Outta Here: She did this in Season 2, episode 8, resigning her post to become Lapis Emberglow again to sail off with Captain Card, citing Gaz's overlooking her for promotion and refusing her personal time as contributing factors.
  • Shrinking Violet: She dislikes being in the spotlight.

     Nobility of Grovhaire 

In General

  • We ARE Struggling Together: Prior to the Legion's return, the assembled Houses - minus Carmichael - were able to muddy along with ruling the city, though had divided control into areas of influence.

House Andros

Lady Andros

  • Absent-Minded Professor: Downplayed, but she's far more interested in tinkering and invention than the actual responsibilities of running a House, leaving most of that up to her advisors.
  • Gadgeteer Genius: She came into power by creating In-Universe devices, most notably the printing press that enables the publication of a daily newspaper.

Nestor Falco

House Benton

Lady Benton

  • Brutal Honesty: She's decidedly up-front about her aims and her requests of the Legion in helping her accomplish them, to the point of openly speaking about assassinating other House leaders with them.

House Carmichael

Lady Carmichel

  • Excessive Mourning: She's spent most of the past decade attempting to bring her husband back to life, and claims that she's spoken to him since his passing. Given the setting, the jury's still out on how true this is.
  • Reasonable Authority Figure: She claims to have no interest in taking the Crown herself, save as a last resort to restore stability to the city. When asked about releasing the Legion's back pay from the Crown's coffers (which are under her House's control), she readily agrees to do so.
  • Revenant Zombie: She and the inhabitants of the districts she controls (and skirting into adjacent districts) are all this after a spell intended to revive her husband went wrong.

House Dolan

Lord Dolan

House Keaton

Lord Keaton

  • Knight Templar: He's unwilling to do anything that doesn't involve the destruction of the undead under House Carmichael

Agronak, the Orc Warchief

—

Thundermaw, the Ancient Blue Dragon

  • He Knows Too Much: After the Legion managed to escape, she had an assassin within their forces try and kill the Captains and Commander to help keep her existence a secret.
    • Come episode 25, and her symbol was found aboard one of Captain Card's vessels just before they were hit with an explosion. Episode 31 reveals that she does this because she knows that the human-controlled areas would band together in the face of a dragon, so she's using subterfuge and misdirection to weaken them first.

  • Light 'em Up: Makes use of the Guiding Bolt spell in combat.

  • Spontaneous Weapon Creation: Makes use of the Spiritual Weapon spell in combat.
  • Truth Serums: Knows the Zone of Truth spell.

  • Refusal of the Call: While the rest of the party were willing to volunteer for the rescue and recon mission at the start of episode two, Rowan elected to remain behind and assist Avernicus with repairs. He was later coerced into joining the party when it became clear that he'd need to search for materials on the island in order to complete the repairs.

  • Shock and Awe: His Arcane Armor is equipped with a Lightning Launcher.
  • Slow and Steady Wins the Race: Has a tendency to argue in favour of plans that will slow the party's progress towards their actual goal of finding the Lost Wards of Myrwyyn, this leads to many arguments with the more impatient members of the party, particularly Tektite.

  • Threshold Guardians: Serves as one to any who would try to gain entry to the Ward by force. She states plainly that she would've killed Kalen's men had they made it far enough to meet her.

  • Abhorrent Admirer: Has an obvious crush on Hoff that is not reciprocated.
  • An Ice Person: Casts a Cone of Cold spell on Tektite.
  • Black Speech: Casts her spells in Abyssal.
  • Blatant Lies: Claims that Fratelli sought her out as he wanted to be the familiar of such a talented young wizardess.
  • Boyish Short Hair
  • Child Mage: A student of the arcane at the University.
  • Delightful Dragon: Abducted Celine's faerie dragon familiar.
  • Foreign Fanservice: Seems attracted to Hoff because he is a Genasi and is disappointed to learn he hails from Ravenreach, rather than the Elemental Plane of Air.
  • Jabba Table Manners: Chews with her mouth open and never stops adding more food to her mouth.
  • Love Hungry: Her actions towards Fratelli and Hoff seem to suggest this trope.
  • Mind Control: Uses a Dominate Monster spell to take control of Fratelli and later Hoff.
  • Playing with Fire: Makes use of the Fire Bolt cantrip in combat.
  • Royal Inbreeding: The fact that she is cross-eyed and buck-toothed is implied to be due to this.
  • Spoiled Brat: A daughter of one of the Great Noble Houses of Grovhaire who has everything she could ever want, though still feels the need to use magic to Dominate other sentient beings to serve as her whims.
  • Villainous Breakdown: Downplayed Trope, her breakdown is more akin to a temper tantrum.
