Character Registry- Who Are You?
Robert Ayr Glenfeidh - Age, Sex, Race?
24, Male, Human - Are you a resident, newly arrived future resident or tourist? How did you get here if you are new?
Newly arrived future resident, got here via a Svefra pod - Do you need a job or have enough coin to support yourself?
Currently attempting to persuade the Founders to allow him to be the Syka distiller! - Describe your character in a short abstract?
Robert is looking for a fresh start in Syka after his family business failed in Lhavit. He brings the princess of Mizahar, Anastasia, with him, and her usual throne is his shoulders. - What are your character goals this season?
Work on the construction of the distillery, hopefully start some basic ciders with local fruit, maybe even a bit of excitement and adventure? Also, once Robert meets and gets acquainted with Buraga, I hope to be able to help out with building the Syka chapter of the Order of Radiance. - Does your PC have the Syka Recommended SkillsWilderness Survival: E+
Weapon: C+

No, except Carpentry. - What required skills did you raise last season and to what extent?
N/A - If you do not have the required WS skills to go out in the jungle alone, death is pretty certain. If nothing else, it is suggested you work towards raising your WS to Expert. Do you understand this?
Yup. IC Robert will not stray from civilised areas, because the jungle is wholly unknown to him and therefore more than slightly daunting. - Why did you pick Syka?
Because I know Syka's climate, and there's active PCs here! - How do you want Moderator Involvement in your PC this season?
I'm fine with any such occurrences as long as the effects are beneficial or not too disagreeable - dubiously useful events (better if they're good for a laugh or two) are definitely welcome! - Additional Comments?
Glad to be here! PM me here or on Discord if you want to thread together.

Marino Oceangem
- Age, Sex, Race?
22, Male, Svefra
- Are you a resident, newly arrived future resident or tourist? How did you get here if you are new?
Resident
- Do you need a job or have enough coin to support yourself?
I have a job.
- Describe your character in a short abstract?
Marino is a explorer at heart, and coming to Syka has provided him plenty of opportunities to indulge his curiosity. There is still so much he has yet to learn and he looks forward to learning about every inch of its coast. He's a bit hesitant about the jungle, but the little he's seen has been intriguing so far so he is amiable to learning more about it.
- What are your character goals this season?
Learn a weapon, engage in a building project, and work on the recommended skills. Also, explore more areas of Syka of course.
- Does your PC have the Syka Recommended SkillsWilderness Survival: E+
Weapon: C+
Hunting: C+
Foraging: C+
Carpentry: N+
Construction: N+?
No.
- What required skills did you raise last season and to what extent?
Started laying the ground work for Wilderness survival, Foraging, and Hunting. Plan on starting the rest, and improving on what I learn from the ongoing thread.
- If you do not have the required WS skills to go out in the jungle alone, death is pretty certain. If nothing else, it is suggested you work towards raising your WS to Expert. Do you understand this?
Yes
- Why did you pick Syka?
I love the environment, and the adventurous atmosphere.
- How do you want Moderator Involvement in your PC this season?
I wouldn't mind some opportunities to explore with a group, or some unforeseen difficulty out on the water.
- Additional Comments?
Looking forward to another glorious season.

Character Registry- Who Are You?
Shanty Oceangem, but call me Shanty - Age, Sex, Race?
20, Male, Svefra. - Are you a resident, newly arrived future resident or tourist? How did you get here if you are new?
I sailed here… duh, on my ship. It’s docked a few hundred feet over there. I guess I would be a tourist, but I don’t know what the future will bring. - Do you need a job or have enough coin to support yourself?
I mean, I can fend for myself… I don’t need a job persay, but I would love to help your community flourish. Where do you need me? Where can I be the most help? - Describe your character in a short abstract?
Shanty is a free spirit. Even identifying his race is a point of contention among him. He is an individual first and foremost. He wants to help, in his own way. He wants to do good, in his own way. He’s a good fit for Syka because he will do whatever is asked of him as best he can. Right now his priorities are hanging around til his Tavan can handle itself, after that the future is an unknown entity. - What are your character goals this season?
I would love for some threads on helping the community of Syka, as well as some opportunities to establish Shanty as a necessary and essential member of Syka. Maybe a brief introduction to how Djed works so that I, as a player, can understand how Djed and its related functions work. Totally not an essential thing though, introducing magic into a newly created character without an established background of behavior is probably not for the best. Probably next season or the season after. We’ll see. We have months to decide on a route. - Does your PC have the Syka Recommended SkillsWilderness Survival: E+

lolno but give me a season and I’ll be at least at one of those benchmarks. - What required skills did you raise last season and to what extent?
Dude was “born” two days aago, I didn’t do anything last season. Not applicable. - If you do not have the required WS skills to go out in the jungle alone, death is pretty certain. If nothing else, it is suggested you work towards raising your WS to Expert. Do you understand this?
Yeah, do you? Bunch of folk living on the outskirts of a jungle and constantly having to brave the wilderness. Shit that sounds intense. Let’s go for it. - Why did you pick Syka?
It was the most populated area at the time of the character’s inception, and I’m not willing to shoulder the lifeblood of a town. In character? Shanty has family in Syka and would absolutely love to be involved in what they’re doing. - How do you want Moderator Involvement in your PC this season?
Honestly, help me be a better writer. Be critical. Be harsh. I don’t care what that looks like. Let’s do a shitload of threads together, let’s do one. Y’all are much better writers than I am, and I would love to become a better writer than you some day. Let’s push each other. - Additional Comments?

They can also deal effectively with snake bites, insect bites, and skin irritation due to plants such as poison ivy, and heal minor bruising. Healers with a singular gnosis mark can also purify deeper wounds with their touch, improving sanitation and eliminating the threat of dangerous wounds going septic or developing infection. alongside a medically oriented
Konti GiftBlood Sense - Through touch, Ayela can sense the movement inside the other person's body, like heartbeat and blood flow, and in doing so can sense where one is bleeding or has a stoppage (bloodclot, cancer), or can see that their heart is racing fast (nervous, lying, adrenaline) or beating slow (comfortable, content, dying). She must touch them over major arteries like the neck, wrist, heart, or thigh where bloodflow is naturally stronger. She may also sense where bloodflow is altered some way inside the body, like flowing around a healed broken bone, inflammation from pulled or torn muscles, or flowing around/through current bone fractures or breaks.
