Appearance

Andol is a fairly tall Half-Elf who has quite long brilliantly red hair, unusually so. His pale complexation is in stark contrast to both his red hair and his piecing gold eyes. Indeed there are those who claim that his elegant features, make him among the most handsome people they've ever had the pleasure of seeing. Others however, hold true to their claim that they've never seen a more punchable face in their lives. It should also be mentioned that Andol's left arm has sadly decided to move onto other things and is henceforth called "Cool Andol". Thanks to the efforts of fellow party member Omerok, Andol's regrown his left arm. After the events with Visera, Andol now has a tattoo of sorts on the back of his right hand, giving him access to magic once again.

Andol's usual outfit consists of a set of full purple robes with bits of golden embroidery found throughout, a pair of black pants (of which the robe usually covers), along with fairly mundane looking traveling shoes the color of ash. In addition a holy symbol of Goar along with an arcane focus of bronze and amethyst hang from his neck. His new Cloak of Billowing, is a deep purple which seems to glisten with the light of a thousand stars.

Equipment

Andol has a light crossbow currently his only form of defense, along with a dagger. Currently his three most important items are a cloak of billowing to help with his magnificent appearance, a bag of holding given to him by the late Barbatos just before he sacrificed himself to save Clymene (which was never taken away), and a ring called The Ring of the Grammarian which he used to great effect by changing up to two letters of a spell to change what they do. Sadly the last item was severely damaged and is unrepairable, from any means minus a Wish spell. As far as miscellaneous items go, he has a business card from "The Menagerie", an outfit from another time, a bracelet of friendship gifted by Aiden and a free song coupon from Lyra.

Powers, Abilities and Skills

• Bloodline: Previously had a Shadow Bloodline, along with a Draconic one. Both of which were sacrificed in order to keep a promise, and save those dear. Has just recently gotten a Clockwork Soul bloodline, thanks to the efforts of Visera and Legion.
• Eyesight: Can see 60ft in the dark, much less then he's used to.
• Longevity: As a Half-Elf, Andol is influenced by his elven side and likely has a lifespan twice as long a a pure human.
• Magical Aptitude: Has a deep knowledge of how to control and modify innate magical energy.
• Magnificence: While his looks are one faucet, Andol has the unexplainable phenomena of radiating an aura of Magnificence which augments his already significant charisma.
• Resistances: Due to his Elven ancestry, Andol has Resistance against attempts to Charm him while also being impossible to put to sleep through magical means.
• Silver-Tongued: Andol has an almost supernatural ability of using his charisma. Whether this is convincing people of a certain point of view, charming people without trying, or helping to convince a Faction to go to war for a faction they hate.

Relationships

• Aiden Thorin --"Couple things to say but lets start with the positive. He and Raiah are engaged which is great since the both of them could use some happiness in their lives. Not to mention that I'm apparently going to be an Uncle.... which is amazing, crazy and totally out of the left field. Gotta make sure that Aiden gets through this final conflict alive, he's got a family to get back to. Speaking of family, I'm concerned with how Aiden reacted with Hugo. I thought I was going to have to Wall of Force him. I suppose he's having trouble with the influence Malor had on him, guess it's therapy for the both of us."
• Aileen Lockheart --"One of my first thoughts when Omerok passed, was that at least he had an experienced friend in the Afterlife. Then I realized that he's dating Aileen's boss and wonder if that makes him rank above her, though it's probably different bran- Sorry got on a tangent there, been trying to figure somethings out so my mind just automatically analyses what I think about. I'm glad they've now both got a friendly face up there, lets make sure they're not joined for awhile."
• Avice Shiniami --"Soooo Avice is my sister, doesn't hate-hate me but likely absolutely hates Clymene. Thinks that people like us have to protect people, whether they want it or not. Guess that's Emperor Oswald's influence trinkling down the family line, at least she doesn't have magic so she won't be hun- oh never mind she does. Fanfuckingtastic, on top of this I have to debate over contacting them before I go off to perhaps get killed. Do I tell them that I'd like to get to know them better, hear about what their life was like, that I want to try and be there for them. When there's a decent chance I'll get killed or worse. No one told me that family was this complicated."
• Barbatos --"Barbatos it's been a while since our last 'talk', I wanted to let you know that Clymene did apologize to Vera though it took some convincing (dragging) to get Clymene to go to your home. Chubbs was doing well when I saw him a couple days ago, Vera is taking care of him. There's a lot I want to talk to you about, when this is all over I'll fill you in on what you missed. Things have gotten pretty crazy, but I just hope you're doing well."
• Bill and Ted --"I suppose I'll have to let them know that the scone business will likely have to close down. It's a shame, I thought it could bring joy to people, not to mention helping people down on their luck. I'm sure Bill and Ted will come up with another business plan soon enough, I'll see if I can help out. I owe it to them to at least try."
• Clymene --"Omerok told me that I need to stop just focusing on others and help myself, alongside accepting help from others, to stop doing things on my own. Why am I mentioning this in the 'Clymene' section of my journal? It's quite simple really, it's because I'm going to drag them to family therapy with me. If I have to do it, I'm sure as Hell dragging others who need it with me. See if I just tried going by myself I might never go, but by making it about helping someone else I trap myself into having to go. Clymene's gonna see that they're a badass rapid firing hero who helps others, and who others want to help themselves to. That's right Clymene you might think you're undesirable and pathetic but I've seen people glancing your way with interest. Is it as many glances as I get? No not at all, but I apparently produce "make everyone horny pheromones" or some other shit that explains what I deal with."
• Charles Harper --"Charles and I apparently buried the hatchet, I never had a hatchet in the first place but apparently its been buried for a while, so that's some actual good news. Have I called Charles a genius before? If not I'll call him one right now, man's got interesting ideas and theory's down to a science. He did propose making a weapon of sorts, which is new for him. I'm sure it's just trying everything before this final battle that's making him bend his policy a bit. Here's to a greater tomorrow Charles."
• Desdemona Nox --"So Desdemona say's she's not impressed with my drive and initiative, along with saying that I don't have to fulfil my end of the bargain since she doesn't really care. Which is totally fine, family doesn't always agree.... I think? I'm not super sure about family dynamics but I'm pretty sure Desdemona's my cousin.... Anyways, I'm still going to revive her daughter... Who may or may not be her actual daughter, so she might or might not be family? Doesn't really matter, I'm bringing her back and if Desdemona doesn't want her then I'll make sure she at least has a place to stay."
• Edgar Castille --"Ok Edgar is much easier to place then Desdemona, he's my Uncle and a pretty outstanding guy. He's a noble who actually does things and involves himself in politics when needed, despite not being the biggest fan. Which I can totally relate to, curse my bleeding heart. He also puts a lot of importance on family and cares deeply for it, at least from what I've seen and heard. I'm sure it'll be nice to talk with Edgar, when it's not about saving the world or other similar topics."
• Elvira Windhelm --"Nothing like a bit of persuasion and the threat of romantic abandonment to make a stubborn person finally commit to a relationship. I guess everything seems simple compared to my 4th dimensional romance situation. They make a cute but very intimidating couple. I do have to ask them if I can see how Javier is doing, since you know we now literally have evidence he was being controlled when the Forsaken attacked Meadowcraft."
• Hakim --"It's a bit suspicious how Hakim arrives and then a box holding Sheng-Lao food was on my table in the library with my name on it. Is this his way of telling me to take care of myself... or it could have been from Tuunbaaq, his sisters Subin/Somchai, what if it was Avice, wait could Shiro have somehow did this... Well anyway Hakim's under suspicion and if proven I'll have to pay him back somehow. That lunch was damn tasty."
• Hildr Firebrand --"Wait wait wait.... I'm just realizing that Hildr's grandmother may have had a thing going on with my mother. Which means that Hildr may have become my step sibling if Shiro survived, my family seems to get more and more complicated."
• Incineryn Blackpyre --"Incineryn I'm sorry I couldn't save you, it would have done Maribelle a world of good. I'll do my best to look after them, hopefully you have an easier time in the Afterlife then you did in life."
• Ivar Warborn --"Ivar's a victim of life just deciding to beat him down, with those in power not caring about his previous situation. No matter what he might be now, Ivar was a hero and that shouldn't be forgotten. I believe that part of him is still in there, it's just buried beneath hate, sorry, and guilt."
• Laura --"Wasn't expecting Aiden to chop your body into such a miserable state. But hey the world is done one very terrible necromancer and I hope that makes up for it. "
• Legion --"Legion's agreed to join the fight! This'll give us a much easier time freeing Nora/Goar. Not to mention that they seem to consider us as actual friends, which Omerok would have been ecstatic about. Lets make sure they make it through this war more intact then not."
• Logan Karstark --"People say we look alike, I personally don't see the resemblance at all. The common factor we both have is apparently terrible luck."
• Lumira Igne --"Thank god for Lumira, not only for her assistance running the healers section of C&D but for being more balanced in the mental department. Not using violence as the first answer and thinking things through, just keep being you Lumira."
• Lydia Redfort --"If other's in the Alliance were as hard working and responsible as her, well we'd not have to worry about everything falling apart when we're gone for a couple days. I hope she gets the happiness she wants in life, though I'll leave what it is there."
• Lyra Roseshade --"I'M SORRY I'M SORRY I'M SORRY I'M SORRY I'M SORRY I'M SORRY I'M SORRY I'M SORRY I'M SORRY I'M SORRY I'M SORRY I'M SORRY I'M SORRY I'M SORRY I'M SORRY I'M SORRY I'M SORRY I'M SORRY I'M SORRY I'M SORRY I'M SORRY I'M SORRY I'M SORRY I'M SORRY I'M SORRY I'M SORRY I'M SORRY I'M SORRY I'M SORRY I'M SORRY I'M SORRY I'M SORRY I'M SORRY I'M SORRY I'M SORRY I'M SORRY I'M SORRY I'M SORRY I'M SORRY I'M SORRY I'M SORRY I'M SORRY I'M SORRY I'M SORRY I'M SORRY I'M SORRY I'M SORRY I'M SORRY I'M SORRY I'M SORRY I'M SORRY I'M SORRY I'M SORRY I'M SORRY I'M SORRY I'M SORRY I'M SORRY I'M SORRY I'M SORRY I'M SORRY-"
• Maribelle Blackpyre --"Maribelle's really impressed me as of late, she's taken Marilka's training more seriously and properly then I would have thought possible from her. She's still the same kind of person she was before, but showing more maturity and responsibility then perhaps anyone else in C&D bar Omerok. As my face can attest, she also throws quite the mean punch, but hey she was doing it to protect someone she cares about. It just gives her extra points from me, I don't hold it against her at all.... or Marilka for stabbing me."
• Marilka Thyrnmur --"Marilka's tougher then she she has any right to be.... then she should be at her age. She'll make a damn good Adventurer in the future if that's the path she chooses, despite almost everyone's efforts to shield her from the reality of it all. Hiding or trying to stifle her interest in adventurers, will just make her more likely to go off on her own eventually and not be prepared. This way she'll also learn to rely on others more and not feel alone when they don't need to be, nothings worse then that."
• Oleza --"Oleza's the newest main addition to the team and she's an interesting one, being from another land only helps her in that regard. She's quite naïve and gullible however, so I'll try to help her if she gets in trouble due to those traits of hers. Hopefully she proof-reads what she writes in that journal of hers, or we're going to look.... interesting to her people if she ever releases her findings. She does seem to be a generally good person though, even If I don't think she realizes the severity of what we face and the possible risks that come along with it. Hopefully she never needs to..."
• Omerok --"Omerok never ceases to amaze me in how adhered he is to his principals along with how easily he seems to just enjoy life, not letting anything burden him much at all. Honestly he's the heart and soul of not just C&D, but whatever group/place he finds himself within. He and the Raven Queen make a cute couple."
• Qurouk Cluiekill --"Barely got to know the guy unfortunately, but from the little time I spent with him I could tell he had the best intentions for all of us. Sacrificed himself without a hint of hesitation, which is something that not many can do, no matter how much they boast. He left quite the fighter behind, I think he'd be proud of how far she's come."
• Raiah Theron --"Can I just say how glad I am that Aiden found Raiah, God knows no one else could deal with his ego. All jokes aside she brings out the best in him and vice-versa, and I'd trust no one more to watch his back. She's a mean hand with her knives and even more so with her mind, even if her torture techniques could use some work."
• Roland Castille --"Roland's view on accepting help from the Conclave if needed, was a breath of fresh air. Most of the Alliance's leadership seems extremely stubborn in...any regard when it involves the Conclave. Guess we're cousins now, though we haven't really interacted all that much after the fact."
• Sayrax - --"She's a beacon of light in these dark times as of late. Don't let that fool you though, she's more resilient then almost anyone I've met... I was afraid we lost her when she was corrupted by the Stone, luckily we were able to work together and free her from that. I like to think that fighting together within the confines of one of your minds, makes people closer friends. A shame I won't be able to use that spell anymore..."
• Shiro Shiniami - --"From what little I heard and saw of Shiro, she was someone who was always there for anyone who needed it. Someone who tried her best to make life better for everyone around her, even at risk to herself. Now she's dead and I'm just as powerless to save her and the others who were slaughtered, as I was all those years ago. Despite my power, fame and whatever other positive traits people put upon me these days... I'm still that disappointing child, who failed to protect those he should have."
• Skulk Greymind --"Skulks the kind of guy you know you can rely on in tricky situations of a combative nature. Not so much on matters of diplomacy but hey the big guys making quite the progress in reading and writing, he should be proud. I know his kid would be, hopefully we can put this Forsaken business behind us soon and he can head back home. I certainly wouldn't mind visiting, from what I've heard from Skulk, they sound wonderful."
• Tuunbaaq Miastroth --"Tuunbaaq's someone who's been giving a tough hand in life, made some bad mistakes and instead of rolling over and giving up, decided to try and make up for them and be a better person. She knows she's not perfect but doesn't try to be, she just tries to be better and keeps an eye on her temper and rashness which got her in trouble in the past. It's admirable, along with her drive to help a decaying village turn into a place where anyone who puts in effort to help the community can belong. Sure she didn't take leadership of the Village honorably, but I doubt she would have had the chance to. Would the corrupt leadership who've sold themselves to the Forsaken follow honorable rules themselves? I doubt it, and a large portion of the populace was too indoctrinated to think for themselves."
• Vera Blackmoore --"Out of all the people who've helped C&D, she's probably the one who has the most reason not to. The love of her life Barbatos, decides to join C&D and ends up sacrificing his life to save Clymene. Followed by a dear friend of hers Aileen, joining up and then facing her demise due to the rash decisions of Clymene relatively shortly after. Yet she still choose to help Aiden in a very dangerous procedure, keeping it going even after he cut off both of her arms and barely made a big deal about it afterwards. Even after finding out about Clymene's involvement, besides a short verbal beatdown Vera didn't demand or ask for anything from Clymene or C&D. Just saying she needed some time away from us, until Springrite came around and she wanted to make sure that I took some time to relax... Vera's a real gem of a person and she deserves much more then C&D has given her."
• Victor Salazaar --"Not the biggest fan of Victor but he's a skilled fighter, works hard, and is one of the more responsible members of C&D. We're lucky to have him, even if he glares at Aiden half the time when they're in the same room..."
• Visera Maelstrom - --"When Visera saved us, she made the elite forces of Sheng-Lao seem like children playing with toys. Got us out of a real tough situation and was repaid by being unable to help her best friend. Fuck, I really should check up on her, I don't know if anyone else will but I can at least let her known that she's still got at least one friend still around."
• Whisper --"Whisper's been quiet lately... She's the one who worries me the most..."
• Ygrid Ironborn --"She's gone now and the world is poorer for it. Went out like the badass she is, and it's thanks to her that we were able to save the city.... Not that it makes it any easier, I'm tired of losing friends. At least we can still talk with Ygrid as Kelemvor."
