2
3[[WMG: Grae (played by [=LordKat=])]]
4A Human Ranger who has some... issues with Elves.
5* AntiHero: Would be the TokenEvilTeammate, except Spoony said he wouldn't approve of an evil protagonist in this game.
6* GeniusDitz: Grae has moments of great brillance usually followed by saying something unbelievably stupid.
7* ImprobableWeaponUser: Flaming bedrolls.
8%%* InTheHood
9* KarmaHoudini: Yet to suffer any repercussions for starting racial riots in Sarmanath.
10%%* KillSteal
11%%* TheLancer
12* MurderIsTheBestSolution: Grae believes this should be the first approach to every person they meet.
13* MyParentsAreDead: The reason Grae hates High Elves so much. When he fired off some snark at Lilea during her introduction, Nik responded by quoting this trope.
14%%* OnlyOneName
15* WeirdnessCoupon: Grae was allowed to light his bedroll on fire and toss it at the enemies because Spoony justified that Grae was the kind of guy who would have his bedroll soaked in oil for just such an occasion.
16
17[[WMG: Lord Vane II (played by Angry Joe)]]
18A Tiefling Swordmage and son of his first character of the same name. Where his father could be very brash and kill-happy, the younger Vane is more subdued, though he still [[BerserkButton gets mad whenever somebody insults his father]].
19%%* BadassFamily
20* BerserkButton: Don't speak ill of Lord Vane I. He considers a lot of things to be speaking ill of his father, such as when Juliet started giving herself titles like General or Lord Commander Juliet.
21* LargeHam
22* ShockAndAwe: Most of his powers are lightning-related.
23* YouKilledMyFather: He doesn't actually know ''who'' did it, but at one point [[spoiler:Lord Talbott]] claims to have done the deed in order to screw with Vane II. Needless to say, it works despite Viktor outright saying "That's not true".
24
25[[WMG: Viktor (played by Y Ruler of Time)]]
26A Fighter who speaks with a Russian accent. Half of the things he does throughout the campaign are ''[[RuleOfCool freakin' badass]]''. Up until the introduction of Lilea and Bayban, he was the only character not to have anything insanely bad happen to them. In late 2010/early 2011, Nik decided to re-spec Viktor as a Barbarian, since at the moment the party has two Defenders already (Vane II and Bayban).
27* AnachronismStew: Part of a running gag, the party (mostly lead by Viktor) is attempting to invent the sport of American football in their world. ("We call it 'sack' because you tripped over that sack that one time."
28%%* BarbarianHero (following his late 2010 re-spec)
29%%* TheBigGuy
30* CatchPhrase: A heavy sigh of frustration, usually done following one of Liz's puns.
31* {{Expy}}: In many ways, Viktor resembles ''VideoGame/TeamFortress2''[='s=] Heavy Weapons Guy.
32%%* HuskyRusskie
33* MadeASlave: All that's really known about Viktor's past is that he used to be a slave, and thus hates slavery in all its forms.
34%%* MotherRussiaMakesYouStrong
35%%* OnlyOneName
36
37[[WMG: Garret Keldia (played by Skitch)]]
38A Half-Elf Bard, and the most eloquent of the group and effectively its leader. An encounter with the Scorpion Queen has left him as a potential vessel of darkness.
39* BrownNote: His Vicious Mockery power, which deals psychic damage and has taken out several enemies.
40%%* EnemyWithin
41%%* TheHero
42%%* MagicMusic
43* SquishyWizard: Subverted. Garret has one of the highest HP totals and defenses in the party.
44
45[[WMG: Juliet Tunde (played by Rollo T)]]
46A Druid multiclassed into Shaman with a penchant for coming up with [[CatchPhrase odd shouts for attacks]]. Has the ability to summon a spirit bird which she has named [[Franchise/{{Pokemon}} Pidgeotto]]. In late 2010/early 2011, [=RolloT=] decided to re-spec Juliet as the Essentials version of the Druid, with a bear animal companion; R.I.P., Pidgeotto.
47* ActionGirl: Was originally the second Defender alongside Viktor.
48%%* {{Animorphism}}
49* BlackComedyRape: The chatroom jokes that Juliet is often the victim of this.
50* CatchPhrase:
51** "Kra-KAW!"
52** "GAGOOSH!"
53* DeathGlare: When Juliet is burying the victims of an elven attack (see SeriousBusiness), Viktor suggests speeding things up by givng them a VikingFuneral; Juliet's only response is to shoot him one of these.
54* ElementalPowers: Most commonly uses [[MakingASplash Grasping Tide]], [[ShockAndAwe Storm Spike]], and [[SoulPower Call Forth the Spirit Pack]].
55%%* InHarmonyWithNature
56* {{Rule 34}}: There is (at least) one nude fanart of Juliet. [[RunningGag With a strawberry]].
57* SeriousBusiness: When the group came upon a farmstead that had been sacked by the elves, most of them wanted to leave as quickly as possible; Juliet insisted on giving the dead a proper burial, and told the others that they could either help her or leave her behind.
58* ShoutOut:
59** Juliet is named after two characters from ''Series/{{LOST}}''.
60** Her Spirit Companion [[Franchise/{{Pokemon}} Pidgeotto]].
61* ThemeNaming: Rollo T's previous character was named Sayid.
62%%* TheSmartGuy
63
64[[WMG: Lilia (played by Iron Liz)]]
65The new elven cleric of the party, much to Grae and Vane's consternation. A good Elf who still believes in the old god Corellan, she's something of an oddity in this setting. Has a penchant for [[IncrediblyLamePun puns]] and [[DeadpanSnarker snarking]].
66%%* CombatMedic
67* HolyHandGrenade: Her most commonly used attack power, Lance of Faith.
68%%* PungeonMaster
69
70[[WMG: Bayban (played by Linkara)]]
71A human Paladin. Has a reputation as a great hero ''and'' a great destroyer, although it is unclear how much is truth and how much is rumor.
72* IHaveManyNames Bayban's backstory consists of many names, to the point where the chat has made "Bayban the baby-knapper", "Bayban the Botcher" and more.
73%%* KillItWithIce
74%%* LeeroyJenkins
75* MasterOfDisguise: Bayban disguised himself as an elf to get to the group.
76%%* ThePaladin
77* WellIntentionedExtremist His backstory involves the aid and slaughter of non believers.
78
79
80[[WMG: The DM (The Spoony One)]]
81%%The DungeonMaster. Of course.
82%%* LargeHam
83%%* OnlySaneMan
84
85'''Former Players'''
86
87[[WMG: Darstine (played by Sean Fausz)]]
88A Dragonborn Rogue [[TheDitz who often forgets to do "the one thing she does well", which is sneak attacking enemies because she's flanking them.]] FromBadToWorse things went when an encounter with an evil spellbook turned her into a vessel for the soul of Morgana, the Lich Queen. [[spoiler:And then got even worse when Morgana took complete control; what this means for Sean remains to be seen.]]
89%%* ButtMonkey
90* BuxomBeautyStandard: When Joe started asking about Darstine's breasts, Sean [[DeadpanSnarker snarked]] that they were [[GreivousHarmWithABody big enough to use as weapons]].
91* CosmicPlaything: The RandomNumberGod '''really''' hates Sean; you can't help but feel sorry for him.
92* TheDitz: Keeps having to be reminded to flank[=/=]sneak attack; "You know, that one thing you're good at?".
93* GrandTheftMe: [[spoiler:As of the 12/19 session, Morgana has completely taken over Darstine, though she says she's been in charge for quite some time.]]
94%%* KleptomaniacHero
95* PhraseCatcher: "You know, that one thing you do well?"
96%%* TheQuietOne
97* UnsettlingGenderReveal: Most of the people involved already knew; when Joe found out, he made it unsettling by asking how big Darstine's "dragon-boobs" were.
98
99[[WMG: Andraste (played by WebVideo/PawDugan)]]
100An Eladrin Cleric who unfortunately left the game shortly after it started being recorded. (Paw left because he needed the time to work on his videos, but he was having fun with the game.)
101%%* CombatMedic
102* HolyHandGrenade: Her most commonly used attack power, Lance of Faith.
103* PutOnABus: The official explanation Spoony gave was that Andraste returned to the Feywild to share the information the group received from the Wheelman.
104* TeleportSpam: None of the sessions with Paw were recorded, but the way the others talk about Andraste, this seems to be one of his things ("If Paw were here, he'd be like 'I don't have any good powers...Teleport, Lance of Faith.'")
105
106[[WMG: Lord Vane I (played by Angry Joe)]]
107The original Vane, a Tiefling Sorcerer who tended to be somewhat brash, arrogant, and not too keen on listening to advice. He was killed by the Royal Guard of Sarmanath after he refused to surrender.
108* BerserkButton: Don't steal his kills.
109* GeneralFailure: He wasn't actually the party's leader, but Joe seemed to think so. As for the Failure part, consider his plan to use his flight power...in a room with a 10-foot ceiling.
110%%* KilledOffForReal
111* ShockAndAwe: Joe refused to make a character without "Force Lightning" powers.
112
113[[WMG: Jonn (played by [=LordKaT=])]]
114[=LordKaT=]'s original character, a Human Barbarian. He chose to leap into a mysterious portal and was overwhelmed and killed by demons.
115* ObfuscatingStupidity: Subverted in that [=LordKaT=] didn't realize Jonn was supposed to be smarter than he was.
116
117[[WMG: Sayid (played by Rollo T)]]
118Rollo T's original character, a Tiefling Warlock. He followed Jonn into the portal in an attempt to save his friend, but was likewise killed.
119* ShoutOutThemeNaming: Like Juliet, he was named for a character from ''Series/{{LOST}}''.
120
121'''[=NPCs=]'''
122
123[[WMG: King Donovan]]
124The King of Sarmanath, and for the most part the group's primary employer.
125%%* BigGood
126* DistressedDude: Spent a month trapped in magical amber, thanks to Lord Talbot.
127%%* ReasonableAuthorityFigure
128* SaintlyChurch: He wants to try and restore faith in the gods, which isn't winning him any friends with the game's antagonists.
129* TwerpSweating: He likes Garret, but when Elena got a little too fawning, Donovan shot him a look that said "Touch my daughter and I'll have you killed".
130
131[[WMG: Princess Elena]]
132King Donovan's young daughter, who has a major crush on Garret.
133%%* DamselInDistress
134* PrecociousCrush: On Garret, much to his distress.
135
136[[WMG: The Witch Queen]]
137%%The main antagonist of the campaign, a High Elf magic-user whose main goal is ascendancy to godhood. She has yet to make an actual appearance, her servant Lord Esgalion's words implying that she's very secretive and private.
138%%* BigBad
139%%* AGodAmI
140%%* GodSaveUsFromTheQueen
141
142[[WMG: Morganna the Lich-Queen]]
143An ancient and powerful sorceress and necromancer, Morgana's actions in the past parallel the Witch Queen's in the present, but eventually she was defeated. She compiled several grimores of powerful magic, one of them (''The Word of Morgana'') being a central element of the campaign
144%%* AGodAmI
145* {{Curse}}: Curses and similar spells were her forte.
146* EvilVersusEvil: [[spoiler:After taking full control of Darstine, her first action is to go after the Witch Queen.]]
147%%* GrandTheftMe: [[spoiler:Poor, poor Darstine...]]
148* KilledOffForReal: Vane II smashing her phylactery destroyed her physical body. [[spoiler:Too bad the Word was ALSO a phylactery...]]
149%%* {{Necromancer}}
150%%* OurLichesAreDifferent: Well, not really, but hey.
151* SoulJar: The amulet. [[color:white:And the Word, as the group discovers to their horror.]]
152* WitchHunt: After gaining power, she attempted to secure it by destroying sources of magic other than herself, burning countless magical tomes and sacking churches and temples to the gods.
