[/Columns] [Columns][b] Strzybóg [/b] Stribog is one of the supreme Gods of ancient Slavs. According to the legend, he was born from the sparks that occured when Svarog, the heavenly smith, hit the Alatir stone and from the wind he made with each swing of His hammer. That’s why Stribog is the God of winds, storms, good and bad weather. He controls weather, bringing cold or mild winds to the Slavs that worked on their fields, bringing health to people, animals and fields. Stribog is a winged, darting, sharp, moody, stern, angry, short-tempered and grumpy God. He is always on the move and he is everywhere, roars over open spaces and wriggles through the tiniest holes.

He's the father of Bielik and Lech, and an extremely kind and empathetic soul. He's got the golden heart of a lion and fights like one too- no one's been able to defeat him until they teamed up and ambushed him, stabbing him in the back. He has a horse named Nadziak, and is, in all rights, a King and a Husarz.

She represents Poland during War and Occupation times. She's a very soft soul, often compared to an angel, but is capable of standing her ground and lashing out violently in defense. She's a Pagan-Christian, believing in old Slavic gods and the powers of Nature, but following the Christian principles of kindness and helping others. She knows how to wield a sword and ride a horse like no other. Bielik Is the polish word for "white tailed eagle", Poland's national bird and on their coat of arms. This eagle is also said to have been in the origin story of Poland's founding, when King Lech found a mother eagle protecting her young, the sunlight reflecting golden hues in it's wings. [/Columns] [Columns][b] Lech [/b] Zygmunt's son and Bielik's twin sibling. He's upbeat and charismatic, although only around friends and ones he trusts. He's got more insecurities than he can count and a past that he refuses to talk about. Lech is a very closeted gay, although once he finds [url=https://flightrising.com/main.php?dragon=56775265]Ivan[/url] (his current boyfriend and personal therapy pillow), he opens up about it slowly. Lech has a deep connection with his father and mourns his death every night, and he's also obsessed with space and space travel, stars and everything galaxy-related. Lech's wings constantly went through suffering and amputation, making him very protective of them (in normally used versions of him, he's got a prosthetic wing attachment to aid him in flight). He and sis sister are covered in scars that mark their brutal past.

He's a rather bold and hotheaded Gaoler, a young buck you could say. He means well, but his enthusiasm to prove his worth has led to disasters he cannot undo, so now he has grown more cautious.
