Gyrocopter
After serving through a life span of wars, disturbance, rebellions, and insurgencies, the brass figured Aurel had seen an adequate amount.

Ursa
Ulfsaar the Warrior is the fiercest member of an ursine tribe, defensive of his land and his people.

Bounty Hunter

The childish form of a Faerie Dragon, an individual that lives for eons, Puck spends countless millennia in its childlike form. Therefore, while it is practically true that Puck is juvenile, it will continue to be so when the cities of the current age have marched away into dust. [Read more…]
Zeus
Noble Lord of Heaven, father of gods, Zeus cares for all the Heroes as if they were his own excitable, rebellious children.

If you can prove yourself faithful, then come back to me as my everlasting husband. [Read more…]
Ogre Magi
The commonplace ogre is the creature for whom the phrase ‘As dumb as a bag of rock hammers’ was lay claim to. In his ordinary state, an ogre is incapable of doing or deciding anything.

Not a particularly social creature, he is often found affectionately sorting with the boulders or tree-stumps, [Read more…]
