Lynsey
Lynsey Habap is an archery troop leader in Taselak. Despite being the second-oldest of the Habaps, she is by far the most experienced.
Linker
Linker Habap preaches at the temple in Tabost as a Priest of the Church Of The Holy Sacred Grove, spreading the good words of Elune and the Holy Father.
He commanded The Silver Arms, which spent much of it's time policing Oberndorf and Oligarch for Sirion. He has fought in two major battle against Perdan, losing his entire unit and being seriously wounded in the first and losing most of his unit in the second. The Silver Arms was reduced to 2 men, but they added another 13 as they rebuilt in Sirion. Having heard rumors of monsters in Sermbar, they moved in and helped defeat the monsters. Linker lead the Arms back to Sirion to recruit more members before returning to the war, but stopped to fight some monsters. They twice travelled to Stora to fight against Avamar Selective and Kalmar Islands alongside their ally, Old Rancagua. The first time, they arrived so late that they only fought in a few slaughters that merited Linker nothing. The second time, they arrived ahead of the main army and were slaughtered. In despair, Linker turned inward and sought guidance. He visited the The Church of the Holy Sacred Grove in Limbar and was convinced to join. Then, he began travelling to Lissambar to join the Priesthood of the Church and preach good words to the people of the East Continent. Due to his many conversions, he was appointed Rector of the Church in Tabost. Having succeeded in converting nearly the entire population, he has moved on as directed by the leaders of the Church. He grows restless though and may be doubting his devotion to the Priesthood.
Linker has great uncertainty about the slave-trader Adrian. One the one hand, Linker finds the idea of enslaving other people reprehensible, but on the other realizes Adrian has done nothing to break the law.
Linker attempted to show off at his first tournament, but with his skill levels with sword and lance both around 15%, no one was impressed. He did manage to win his first round in both events, though. His leadership is estimated at 15%. His preaching skill is estimated at 60%.
Dabug
Dabug Habap is a noble of RedSpan who serves as a reporter for the RedSpan Revealer as well as a troop leader. He speaks freely, sometimes to his own detriment. He recently was wounded while losing a duel with Yavanna Galadeon for stating that he suspected she might be spying for her sister, Lavigna Galadeon, Arch Priestess of RedSpan's hated enemy, Darka.
Early on, Dabug fought in a pair of battles for RedSpan before deciding that perhaps being a Trader would be a wiser choice. After trying that for awhile, he tried being a Beer-o-crat. That was highly amusing and he felt he was good at it. Now, he has returned to the Army as the clouds of war loom on the horizon. His leadership is estimated at 15%.
He fancies himself a vintner, growing Pinot Grigio, Pinot Noir and Grenache grapes in Meldeen. Unfortunately, he used his archers as winemakers in the most recent season and they mixed the Pinot Grigio and Pinot Noir, thinking they were the same grape.
With so little money in the coffers of RedSpan and much confusion in its military, he figured trading sure couldn't be worse than the Army. His small escort, also named the Latvian Arms consisted of a dozen archers. He established a trade route between Stargard and Wayburg/Suville and expected it would keep him busy and amused for a while. He worked with Duchess Callisto Maximoff of Suville, Royal Treasurer of Abington, to coordinate his trading. With the sudden and unexpected retirement of King Manaydur and Treasurer Sir Eilt, RedSpan was in flux. After discussions with new King Tony and others, Dabug had high hopes. The new Treasurer, Namur, has helped Dabug considerably, allowing him to expand to three caravans and trade with many nearly starving Abingdon provinces. His trading skill is estimated at 20%.
When RedSpan regained Sullenport, he became a Beer-o-crat and helped re-integrate the city into the realm. With RedSpan reconfigured and healthy, he rejoined the Army just in time to hear the horns of war being blown by the mercenary realm, Darka.
Zal
Zal Habap is an adventurer, wandering Beluaterra seeking out excitement. Likes many in his family, Zal has taken up the pen and writes for the Plergoth Press.
While Zal has the family name, he is actually the son of one of the scullery maids who died in childbirth. Apparently, Hugo Habap, grandfather of Lynsey, Dabug and Linker, could still sow his wild oats in his advanced years. So, despite his youth, he is half-uncle to the others, but rarely even acknowledged as family. Unable to put up with second-class status in his own home, he left to make his name on his own.
He started his adventures in the mountains of Old Grehk. He fought monsters and the undead in Jedinchel and ventured into the mountains of Qual. Upon arriving in the city of Vozzessdor, he joined the Church of Estahsism, seeking enlightenment. Like many others, he was quietly removed from the rolls of the Church for lack of dedication.
Seeking excitement, he headed south and west, searching through the mountains near Reeds, seeing battles with insults floating freely among the nobles of the area. Disappointed when he could find no role in these fights or scouting for his realm, he headed for the badlands to the west. In Kraake, he came across a crowd of other thrill-seekers. This crew now bases itself in Reeds, but little else is known of its purpose, leaders or location. Zal would not respond to letters seeking clarification for this article....
He spends many a night afield with his trusty old tent and seems quite content far from rules and roofs.
The tutor estimates his Swordfighting skill to be about 20%.
