⌖ Sage ⌖
Name: Cesage Gwydion
Gender: Male
Age: 19
Birthday: 12/6
Sexuality: Unknown
Special Characteristics: Wears really big hats. Don’t mess with his hat!
Personality:
Sage is a prideful, imperious, and snide brat. He's rude and seems as entitled as a child of a noble Bellian family stereotype. Because the family has always been very wealthy, he despises charity, both receiving it and giving it. Though he has earned very little of it himself, he very vocally thinks that people should earn their own way. Sage will never ask for help no matter how badly he needs it, relying instead on his own devices. He's more comfortable tricking and manipulating the people and situations needed to accomplish his ultimate goals and thinks himself quite slick. He's both honest and dishonest, whichever is more cruel or useful, and does not hesitate to play nasty tricks. Though quite gifted with all things magic, potions included, he sometimes purposefully gives them wicked side effects just for fun. Since his body is a bit small and weak for his age, Sage has to rely solely on his magical prowess to get what he needs. Since leaving Bellum, he presents himself as a traveling witch selling potions and spells, faking honest words and sickly sweet smiles until he gets what he wants. Beyond that, he's a bad-tempered, sneering young man who says whatever he feels with little to no regard for hurting others. In fact, sometimes it seems like he's aiming to hurt others, perhaps to keep them at a distance or to avoid getting taken advantage of in the way he takes advantage of others. Woe be to those caught up in his horrible tantrums, though.
The one thing he fears most is losing his sister and mother to their illnesses, making said mystery illness and time his greatest adversaries. His top priority is to research and find his family's cure, since it seems to be something money can’t buy. Deep down, though he’d rather die than admit it, his family is his soft spot. Once he comes to care for someone as much as he does them, he would learn a spell to move heaven and earth to keep them alive and safe. This loyalty does not extend to his good-for-nothing father, though. While he doesn't ever want to see his father again, he does dream of punishing the man for running out on them when things got tough. He didn’t even come back when the superior country of Bellum came under attack by those magicless, Arcanos-forsaken mongrels to the north!
Likes:
⌖ Magic: Other than having the personality of a goblin, this is most of Sage’s identity. The only thing he’s proud of that he inherited from his father.
⌖ Trickery: Releasing pent-up anger is healthy.
⌖ Tea: He loves a good cup of tea somewhere quiet. Interrupt at your own risk.
Dislikes:
⌖ Authority: He’s perfectly able to make his own decisions. Anyone having power over him is the worst.
⌖ Rabbits: People keep asking him if he can pull one out of his humongous hat and it pisses him off.
⌖ Humility: Most humble people are being fake about it.
Motivations:
⌖ Family Cure: His mother, twin sister, and even himself are suffering various mysterious ailments. Jewels can’t buy a cure, so he’ll have to make one.
⌖ Stronger Magic: If only so he can blow his legendary father off the map.
⌖ Superiority: To be able to assert his own status and strength in his own right might satisfy the gnawing in his soul.
Fears:
⌖ Being Controlled: Being stripped of his will freaks him out.
⌖ Family Deaths: Though he has a hard time showing it until the cards are on the table, it would crush Sage if he lost either of his siblings or his mother.
⌖ Being Weak and/or Poor: Sage places little value in physical strength and finds magical prowess and money to be what means the most.

⌖ Cici ⌖
Name: Cecilie Gwydion
Gender: Female
Age: 19
Birthday: 12/6
Sexuality: Unknown
Special Characteristics: Wears really big hats and has a fantastic booty.
Personality:
Cici is truly a sweet girl, but totally naive. She wants nothing more than to explore the world she's been isolated from most of her life. Her perception of the world comes from a place of innocence, but that's not to say she hasn't developed a personality. Though she could easily have become as bitter as her beloved twin, Cici chooses to stay positive, though she can be quite sassy. It's easy to fool her, but once she finds out that she's been duped, she'll make her displeasure known with sharp words, perhaps even backed up by a spell to two. Almost all of her life might have been spent napping and resting, but when she was able to concentrate, Cici studied magic tomes and memorized spells. She was always optimistic that it would come in handy someday, once her brother's insanely hard work paid off and she was blessed with fragile freedom. She can now travel and explore the world she’s read so much about, but sometimes at great cost. Though she can’t see her own future, she often checks with her magics on those she loves, like her two brothers and her mother. Her fortunes are very rarely concrete things, but instead strange impressions and riddles. She calls them her Star Mysteries, and even if she isn’t the best at interpreting them and they aren’t very helpful, she loves them anyway.
Socially, she’s not very experienced and has a hard time respecting boundaries. As the sickest of the family, she missed most of the mandatory gatherings expected of a noble daughter and only had the servants to speak to and play with. In that way, though a little spoiled, she is less pretentious and more gentle with those of lower standing than herself. Cici wants to get to know everyone, good and bad. This also extends to her father. The young witch is not so pure that she believes her father wasn't wrong for leaving them, but she is far less prideful and unforgiving than Sage. She's willing to give anyone a chance to explain, even him, and she sincerely hopes he has a good reason because she very much wants to forgive him and have her father back.
Likes:
⌖ Adventuring: Now that she is able, albeit temporarily, to travel, she wants to go everywhere and find excitement around every corner.
⌖ New Things: Since she doesn’t know how long she’ll live, she has to fit all she can into the days she has.
⌖ Books: For most of her life, books were her only view of the outside world. She adores fiction and non-fiction alike, and can’t wait to see the things she’s read about in person.
Dislikes:
⌖ Cruelty: Life is too short to make yourself and everyone else miserable.
⌖ Sickness: No one likes it, of course, but being chronically and probably fatally ill is a bummer. She doesn’t complain much, though.
⌖ Humility: Most humble people are being fake about it.
Motivations:
⌖ Family Cure: For herself, certainly, but she also very much wants her mom and brother healthy, too.
⌖ Experiences: Cici wants to make sure she goes into that good night without regrets. She wants to see and feel everything!
⌖ Love: Perhaps she’s read too many romance novels, but she would love to know what love feels like before she dies, though she would never trap someone in a relationship when she could die at any time. That’s too cruel.
Fears:
⌖ Living a Long Life Still Sick: If she can’t be cured, she’d rather pass on sooner than stretch out the misery.
⌖ Family Deaths: It would irreparably crush her if her mother or siblings died.
⌖ Bellum’s Destruction: Though she might not always live there, Cici is very loyal and patriotic when it comes to her home country.

⌖ Adrisse ⌖
Name: Adrisse
Gender: Male
Age: 20
Birthday: Unknown
Sexuality: Pansexual
Special Characteristics: Fluffy little fox ears and tail because he’s Joyan.
Personality:
One would have no idea of the hardships Adrisse has endured going off of his attitude alone. While he has every right to be bitter and world-weary, even homicidal, the Joyan remains gentle and nigh bubbly as if nothing in the world is wrong. He trusts nearly everyone he meets unless a very good reason is given, and even then he's fond of second chances. The hint of a frown or the slight quirk of a brow will see him bending over backward to improve said brow quirker's mood, though he isn't too good at many things. He’s the clumsy runt of the Gwydion household servants and has been threatened with unemployment many times. When he's not chattering, he can be found passively observing, as if waiting for the next time he's needed. Perhaps all of his perky positivity is just a survival instinct developed from years of abuse during his training, but if it is, he's none the wiser. He seems truly happy the way he is. Perhaps ignorance really is bliss. When his plucky attitude and gifts don't cut it and things get stressful or bad, that's when the waterworks start. Adrisse cries easily, even though he tries not to. It's a problem.However, there is another, deeper side to Adrisse. He can be sarcastic when he’s focused on something, or if he’s truly comfortable with the other person. The people pleasing will fall away and he’ll be his most authentic secret self, someone who is artistic, gets frustrated with his failures, and wishes things were different. It bothers him that his most successful skills are music, painting and botany. The first two are useless, and the only thing the latter really helps with in his work is cooking, but he’s already good at that! Almost everyone knows what tastes good, but not everyone needs a nice poison, healing paste, or to know where mushrooms grow.
Likes:
⌖ People: He has no reason to, yet he does.
⌖ Plants: He really enjoys growing plants and knowing all their uses, conventional and not.
⌖ Food: Cooking is one thing he’s good at, so he loves learning new dishes to try.
Dislikes:
⌖ Upsetting People: He’ll do anything to remedy the situation when someone is upset. This is the opposite of his job!
⌖ Books: He can’t read very well. He prefers pictures.
⌖ Strong Smells: His nose is very, very sensitive! This makes cleaning bathrooms very unpleasant and upsetting to his tummy.
Motivations:
⌖ Freedom: He hopes that one day he’ll earn enough jewel to buy himself freedom.
⌖ Validation: He just wants to be praised, either for his work as a servant or for the things he’s good at.
⌖ Helping: Even if he wasn’t in a position to constantly offer help, there is likely no other way he could live his life now.
Fears:
⌖ Unemployment: This would render him homeless and destitute with little means to keep himself alive.
⌖ Freedom: Though he wants to be free, he’s also terrified of the unknown. It is a life he’s never experienced and will come with tons of challenges.
⌖ Joya’s Destruction: In the wake of the Felidae incident, he fears for a home and family he barely remembers. He wants it to still be there if/when he can visit his birth home.
