He appears to be in his 50's, has shoulder length,
wavy silver hair, green eyes, and fair skin. He has a soaring black dragon
tattoo on his arm. He is wearing a shadowy black stalking cloak, some crimson

a rune-etched black leather belt, and a flawless soulstone clasp.

Lady Gwennolay
She appears to be in her 70's, has very long red hair,
green eyes, and tanned skin.

hand.

lance-shaped key made from the purest veniom suspended from a sleek invar
chain, some slender dark fingerless gloves stitched from wrist to elbow with
a multitude of tiny stalking panthers, a sleek black leather bodice outlined
with sheer elven lace along its low cut neckline, a delicate braided gold
belly chain clasped at each hip by small onyx cat heads inlaid with brilliant
emerald eyes, an elegant red silk skirt with a daring slit up the right side
and clasped at the waist with an intricate onyx cat-head symbol of Andelas,
some thigh-high black leather boots with sharpened high heels made of solid
veniom, and an ebony greatcloak trimmed in black lace with a flame-red satin
lining and clasped at the shoulder with a golden mithril infinity knot.

on his forearm, and a burning flame tattoo on his neck.
He is holding an invar Eorgina figurine in his left
hand.
He is wearing a small veniom stud earring, a dark vaalin
holy symbol expertly set with a dragonfire diamond carefully etched in each
facet with the symbol of a different Lornan god, a finely stitched crimson
silk shirt with long billowing sleeves that is clasped tightly at the neck
with a storm grey symbol of Eorgina, a pair of storm grey leather trousers
with thick crimson veniom threads running down both sides, and some thick
black leather boots sporting solid glaes buckles capped with veniom curving
down the front.

my dearest friend and the most devoted companion I could ever ask for."

for life. The key I lock it with represents my comfort when you are away,
knowing that you will always be there in my heart mind and soul. I love you
