Yeshka the gnoll is on the upper end of her races height at a staggering 7'6" and has a lean muscular physic. She is young by human standards but a full grown adult by gnoll standards at 13 years; she hasn't learned much from human society except that her instincts are trustworthy when it comes to humanoids act first talk later. Due to her gnoll nature most are timid around her but most in the city know she is soft a heart and a true follower of Desna. Wearing lammelar leather one can expect to hear her complain how it is hot and snags her fur most believe it is a matter of time before she tears it off due to her occasional bursts of anger when her integrity and morals are questioned. she also carries a sheild and two mighty weapons a war pick known for putting holes in toughest armors and a battleaxe. she also carries a javeline for those out of her range which is very few to be sure.

Aegis was abandoned as a child on the outskirts of a poor farming village.The villagers found the child naked covered in blood and repeating the same word over and over. "Aegis". After the church gave him a good looking over he was declared to be "Clean" and not knowing what else to call him they named him Aegis. He lived a peaceful life in the care of the local church until he began having night terrors at age 12. For 4 long years he experienced the same dream. Running. Endless running from something that shook the very ground with it's footsteps. The dream always ended with teeth closing around him and pain.Soon after he entered his 16th year the dreams changed. They started happy. His mother and father serving dinner, two older children that could be his sisters, and a kind old dog. Then the running again, but this time his family were with him. First his father would fall behind, then his sister, and finally his mother would be violently ripped from him by a giant aberration. The dream ended with her being eaten alive by the creature's thousand snake like mouths; still screaming for him to run. When he awoke from the dream the first time his room looked like a beast had ripped it apart. Claw marks had rent the stone like it was butter, and the bed had been ripped in two. After a few more nights like that he decided to leave the village both for their safety and for his. He spent the next 8 years learning in solitude to control the power that must have saved him that night long ago. Living in forgotten ruins and old barns while hunting what monsters he could reasonable kill and avoiding what he could not. He fell in with an adventurer party and was a founding member of the Band of The Hawk. They had many fine adventures and helped tame the lands of Calidor. He was rather famous in his other form, but eventually he retired and took a wife. Opting to live a simple life and let others fight the good fight. However Aegis found that he did not age like other men. All around him his friends and even his wife continued to age and eventually the love of his life passed from this world. His children grown and his wife gone Aegis decided it was time for a fresh start. Adventuring had suited him once and it would do so again. He finds himself in a world that has changed and remembers his heroics as bedtime stories to tell children. Maybe the world insists it needs new heroes, but there is nothing like a classic.
The Band of the Hawk Rides Again!
(I'm assuming that being a commoner for 80+ years erased all his old levels from back in the day)
Aegis is handsome in an off putting way with dark features and gray hair. He stands about 6 foot tall and is of average build. His green eyes seem to dance with tiny lights. His entire body is covered in summoning marks that is only a slight shade lighter then his skin color. Sometime around his hundredth birthday he grew a pair of wolf-like ears and is rather ambivalent about them. He would wear a hat to cover them but they are very sensitive.
When assuming his other form he grows almost a foot and packs on almost 200 pounds of muscle mass. His eyes turn a deep shade of red and a black mist makes up the non-human parts of his form. The Summoning marks on his body begin to pulse the deep red of his eyes. The form itself is mane up of ambient particles he pulled from the local environment.

Amara may often appear to be human but do not let tht fool you, she is a young 16 year old Kitsune who is very skilled in changing her form to suit her needs. Her needs usually being breaking and entering, pilfering and looting, and all around thievery. She is fairly headstrong and has great issue in trusting anyone most specifically humans until she has had decent time to get to know them due to her past history of slavery. She is well versed in fighting with Knives and has a few assorted blades hidden over herself some easy to see like the crossbow slung to her back but some are not as easy to notice and she is usually found wearing some sort of light armor that protects but allows her to stay agile.
