(Angevin Empire 1195AD) Alexander Godred Cross is a 35 year old mastiff, born in 1160 in Cambridgeshire, he is the father of a small church, a kind and soft spoken man he does his best to look out for others, his compassion and knowledge of medicine had led to many people respecting him, and his history as a warrior has led to many admiring him, although keeping his opinions to himself to avoid trouble Cross is a very open-minded man, and does not often judge others for who they are unless it harms others, though he is not one to judge, especially as he has a few secrets of his own, not long after his birth his parents would pass of an Illness, leaving him in the care of the local Catholic Church, growing up he was equally interested by the church as he was the knights that often passed through town, hitting the age of 16 he would join a pilgrimage to Jerusalem, however after arriving, he would become enamoured by one of the holy orders, and would soon join the Knights Hospitaller, serving under the king of the crusader state he would help as a healer as much as a warrior, earning both wealth and respect he would be devastated by the kings passing in 1185, within a year the kingdom would be severely weakened, Cross chose to go to Normandy and set up a church in a small village, he used it to provide a place of refuge for those seeking to avoid, or heal from, the devastation of the currently roaring Hundred Years’ War, though swearing an oath not to kill, he knows war all to well, and never truly got rid of his sword, or his armour… (Whoever and whatever you are is entirely up to you)

250 years after the bombs fell, few people dare to attempt to tame the dangerous wasteland the world had become, but those that do often join the Rangers the descendants of a pre-war combat engineer unit that survived the bombs through their isolated base in the Arizona desert, having weathered the destruction of their HQ, a rogue ai’s robot army, and the largest raider horde ever assembled, they are battered and beaten, but not broken, despite their wounds the Rangers must uphold their ideals, and when a desperate voice is heard over a radio, calling for help, a convoy is sent out to its source, the old-world ruins of Denver, in the heart of the frozen wasteland once known as Colorado Sent with the convoy is Veteran Ranger Valentine, a 29 year old Arctic Fox, though it’s unknown if that is his real name or a nickname his skills leave little reason to question him, growing up alone he quickly learnt to rely on himself, and witnessing the destruction of his small hometown gave him a burning desire to help those in need and protect all those he can, taking up the ranger’s badge he proved himself to be one of their best, although he may seem to like fighting, he is a surprisingly kind, caring, gentle and even affectionate person having seemingly no problem with forming attachments and relationships he sees them as strengths instead of weaknesses, recognizing love as a powerful emotion, and using his care for others and to push himself onwards, even if they are gone, ironically for his name he’s had his heart broken many times he’s taken each experience as a chance to learn, and as an example of his destiny to be a ranger for the rest of his life, now emboldened by the last 10 years of hardship and his burning desire to be at the front, he volunteered for the Colorado expedition, what would go on to happen, would only harden his resolve…

Prince Volkskar Kalden Ebonguard is the heir to the throne and the house of Ebonguard, he had a relatively normal upbringing for a noble, though unlike his siblings, who quickly relaxed into the wealth and power they had, Kalden spent most of his time learning, watching drills and sparring with knights, reading with tutors and scholars, and even learning what he could from the arch-mage of the kingdom despite his lack of magical ability, he quickly became a skilled in whatever he set his mind to, and never hesitated to get his hands dirty and do things himself, spending equal time among lowborn as he has nobles he treats no one as lesser than others, he now commands the armies of the kingdom and only spends time at home to attend feasts and royal balls, he is however not on good terms with his father, unhappy with his house’s fall from grace into a cycle of ignorance and decadence, he hopes to reform his kingdom once he ascends to the throne and bring back its once vibrant culture and power. The Kingdom of Polvaea is a wealthy and skilled kingdom, or at least it was, after centuries of prosperity the nobles have grown negligent, leaving the kingdom in a dying state, forts go without maintenance, skilled workers are hard to find, and competence is rare, the royal guard is even a knightly order simply hired by the royal house, the “Guard of Aurorus”, Kalden works strangely close with the order, with rumours that he had secretly joined them, despite their required oaths of celibacy and landlessness
