Lore Snippets
Major Regions:
Arthas and Luxei have 3 children (officially in the lore) named WuGui, QingWa, and Jade.
Eriador is the little monarch of a region (TBD) and has courtiers and advisors. He's a benevolent and honorable leader. Two of his courtiers are Rosalyn and Edanosk, who are the Courtiers of Agriculture and Warfare respectively.
Navara and Wynfor are travelling doctors who study medicine from various regions and culture across the continent. They were once students of Panorin.
Jade and Nirsanee work under Edanosk as Generals and teachers in the 'army' (I don't think I want to call it that since I'd rather not imagine war in my little fictional world but...oh well, I want to picture them as knights).
Liona is Eriador's cousin and ambassador to the 'Water Region' (TBD).
Aura is also a shaman and is next-in-line to become the head Shaman who leads the Order. He's married to Liona. He took on QingWa as an apprentice.
The Princess of the 'Water Region' is Flaviana and she's engaged to LianHu - the Emperor of another region (TBD).
Badal and Ainan are travelling bard boyfriends who are unaffiliated, unbothered, and unforgettable. They are arguably one of the best performing groups, if not THE best on the entire continent. They don't charge much for their shows either - unless they're in a particularly wealthy area. Badal and Ainan also perform for free in more normal neighborhoods (poverty doesn't exist in this world, so you're either average, middle class, upper class, or royalty. It doesn't need to be 'realistic' - it's my fantasy land and I get to be optimistic). Also they're secretly necromancers...which they somehow incorporate into their shows as a core theme without anyone really questioning it. Necromancy is a lost art so...there's no reason so suspect them of bringing back dead dragons or beasts.
Gallia and Ion are married. Gallia is a diplomat and Ion is his bodyguard. Sometimes they kiss on the job.
Brimstone is a legendary explorer who climbs mountains and sails the seas. She found Tachypleus in the depths while diving and they fell in love. He's her cryptid husband I guess?
Speaking of cryptids - MothMan is married to Panorin and they live in a cottage in the woods together.
Speaking of cottages in the woods - Absinthe and Miko own a cottage and an inn together. It's a small cluster of buildings in a clearing - it's a little ways away from the main road through the forest. Absinthe is a barkeep and Miko is the little economist who keeps track of the logistics. Absinthe isn't very good at math so he does his fair share by cleaning, cooking, and serving guests. Miko spends her time in the reception and kicks out people who misbehave - especially those who bother Absinthe.
Frys and Kylskap are married scientists who conduct silly little experiments together.
Clown and FortuneScent are friends of Absinthe and Miko. They run a small blacksmithing business. Brimstone sometimes buys new gear from them - made to fit and durable. She tends to lose them though.
Roikha is an Alien who has come to research the continent. Frys and Kylskap are absolutely thrilled and have befriended him. They also insisted that Roikha should keep in touch while he's visiting the Nature Kingdom.
Corcepta is a seafarer who has her own fleet and works closely with the trade overseers in different regions. That includes ??? who is Eriador's Courtier of Trade. Artessa is her husband and cartographer. She wouldn't be lost without him but she prefers his maps over the ones she makes herself. He's incredibly skilled so she adores his craftsmanship - and all of him, for that matter.
ShengRi and Lycka are just silly lil guys. Nobody bothers them and they're fourth-wall-breaking critters.
Terracotta and Chimera are married and a bit evil. Well, Chimera is but Terracotta just follows along to keep him out of trouble.
