In rebellion against being known only as "the good twin" (both because she doesn't believe Joslina to be all bad, and because she'd rather be defined on her own terms), Hazel tries very hard to display a persona of a greedy, vain person.

Lantwese the Thief
by thatbennyguy
Bio:
Gender: Female
Age: 23
Description: Born among slum denizens, Lantwese grew up working the land around her father's manor. She was sweet, kindhearted and hard-working, as well as being an independent woman. In her youth, her mistrust for the government grew and she joined the Thieves Guild via referral from a friend. Lantwese's true first love in her adolescent years passed away in a tragic mill accident. Through the bitterness, Lantwese's distaste for political dishonesty combined with a growing avarice lead her to become the competent thief she is today.
Lantwese (23yo) is the splitting image of Weylin (14yo) by reason of great cosmic coincidence. Weylin, several months before the game has started, inadvertently sets the lair of a huge group of evil cultists on fire, as is predicted of him. Now as the rumours spread, he is lauded as some kind of village hero, having burnt down the HQ of the evil guys that had plagued them for so many years before.
Now we come to Ms. Lantwese, who being a con artist, chooses to con people out of their money by offering door-to-door insurance policies from "the hero Weylin". Weylin can save you from the possibility of hideous monsters invading and reaping your crop, for only a monthly fee of 99.99 gp, all rights reserved. So, that happens. And then she buggers off. Every. Single. Time.
Other: She is a talented encourager. Her mother died giving birth to her.
Class: Thief
Stats: High agility, low health and magic. High critical rate.
Weapon(s): Daggers
Armor: Light leather
Skillsets: Shadow

Weylin the Pyromancer
by Byah
Bio:
Gender: Male
Age: 14
Description: If there's a chance to make something explode, Weylin will take it without a second thought. Hurting himself in the process is generally seen as a worthwhile sacrifice.

A few months ago he was doing the usual, setting random (usually abandoned) buildings/things on fire, but instead of being chased from the land, he was being hailed a hero! Turned out he decimated a whole cult of evil followers in the process. Tasting his first bite of praise for doing what he likes doing best, he's decided to play hero by chance for a little while longer.

Skillsets: Fire
