the Great

The Great family is a family of warriors who descended from the desert, though they haven't lived there for generations. Technically they are the House of Xanio as he is the leader of the family, once the father dies, he will be undisputed. Resilient and tough, they don't back down from a fight. The noble branch of the family hails from Rotherthorpe, though Xanio claims more heritage from the desert. The family all follows the same religion, but Torsaan and Karibash have had to denounce their religion because of their realms. All are half brothers, sons of Bah-bah-kar-i the Traveller and various mothers. They all lived with their mothers.

Xanio

Xanio is the oldest, standing an impressive 7'3", he would look quite formidable on the battlefield were it not for his bizzare style of swordfighting. It incorporates odd angles, bends, jumps, kicks and spins in one fluid motion. He is slightly insane from his time in Kybcyell. After Wayburg fell, Xanio joined ASI to continue the war with Abington. He left ASI to serve Talerium after the war ended, feeling a need to be closer to the desert. His mother is from Rotherthorpe, but Xanio was born in Axzaloc. Xanio is currently the first Bane of Badgers and the first Kargnchha.

Notes, not ingame knowledge! His character is one of a man who won't step down, ever. He has a desire to lead a realm, and leave a mark on his continent. He will leave a realm merely to search for new adventures. He prefers to not sit and wait for fame, but to seize the one moment, and keep it. If he felt the ruler was weak, he'd be part of a rebellion. He is a cannibal, by his religion.

Torsaan

Torsaan is the youngest of the family, the shortest at 6'6", and the least battle hungry. He is angry at everything. After faithfully serving Tara for his entire career, he left to become a priest of the Valentic Order in Valentia, Beluaterra. Once more left to be a priest, this time for The Word in Talerium, Atamara. His mother was a noblewoman from Andurus, though Torsaan was born in Axzaloc.

Notes, not ingame knowledge! Torsaan is always angry. He wishes to succeed, but gets angry from the time needed. He would rather that someone would recognize him, rather then sit in darkness. Would join a rebellion, or start one.

Karibash

Karibash is the most successful so far, but he has no desire to rule a country, merely to fight. All he lives for is fighting. He stands 6'11" and fights for Toren.

Notes. Again. Karibash has no desire to lead. He wishes to fight. Loyalty is a vital attribute, he would never join a rebellion or flee from a doomed realm.

Anstorkoc

Standing a more sensible 5' 10", Anstorkoc is an adventurer. Born in Ypsilanti, he left in the middle of the night on a caravan and ended up in Grekh. He was denied any money. He holds no resentment to his family and wishes to see them again, despite being disowned.

Notes Anstorkoc was disowned, but does not hate his family. He was always well liked by his cousins.
