The Party

The Party is a group of adventurers currently traveling through the continent of Thalnor. Their current goal is to travel the world under the employment of Lady Lorelei Locksley, in search of artifacts written down in her Tome of Shadows that potentially threaten Ardalin's safety. After their return from the ruins of Gran Novis, they established a guild, with Wuji Asuka as the guild master, named False Edge.

Anna
A half-elven fighter from the village of Nurvodsk, Anna was born from an elven father and human mother whose faces she can't recall. Once blessed with protective magical abilities given to her by an Overseer-aspect deity, the day her power waned was the day Nurvodsk was attacked by bandits. Injured in the attack and blamed for the village's destruction, Anna was exiled and brought to Adella's prison to atone for her crimes, where she met the rest of The Party/False Edge.

Raven Frostshatter
A human ranger from the dwarven village of Nen Torum, Raven was found abandoned in the middle of the Frostmaiden's Steppe, but was saved by Ptarmigan and Kittiwake Frostshatter, a dwarven couple who took Raven in as their own. Raven was raised among dwarvenkind and experienced a fair share of prejudice, but became one of Nen Torum's most skilled hunters regardless. At some point in his adolescence, however, Raven burned down the home of Nen Torum's chief, Cassowary Frigidwind, and was exiled from the village. In the years following, Raven was transported between many prisons, eventually making his way to Adella, where he would come to meet The Party.

Merlana Sildraskt
An aasimar paladin of an unknown origin. She isn't one to share much about her past, but some time prior to the formation of The Party/False Edge, Merlana was imprisoned for stealing bread.

Wuji Asuka
A tiefling warlock from an unknown place in Thalnor. During her youth, Wuji went missing during a game of hide-and-seek with her siblings and friends, becoming lost deep in the woods and eventually succumbing to her hunger inside of a dark, moss-covered cave. In her dying breaths, she was met with the visage of the Raven Queen, who allowed her to live once more in exchange for her servitude. Wuji agreed, and from there would practice her magic as much as she could, but became distrustful of others in the process. Despite this, she began to explore the world in search of power and knowledge; unfortunately, one of these endeavors ended up causing her to kill someone, leading to her eventual arrest and imprisonment in Adella.

Kong Wusun
A monkey-like human monk from a place of unknown origin, Kong shortly served as a member of the Knights of the Sacred Heart before encountering The Party. Figuring he has nothing better to do, Kong accompanies them on their quest. The first member of The Party/False Edge to join after its initial formation.

T'sura aht Sahri
A tabaxi wizard by definition and a fortuneteller by trade, the party met T'sura in the city of Clyffside Quay, operating a fortunetelling shop. After Wuji and Merlana had their fortunes read, Merlana managed to convince T'sura to join their soon-to-be established guild, with T'sura telling them that she would be waiting until they had a bit more of a name before she would join. Once False Edge was formally established, T'sura officially joined as the guild's first NPC member.

History
Anna, Raven, Merlana, and Wuji first met in the dungeon below the city of Adella, though it is unknown how much they interacted or who met who first. Either way, the four spent a relatively lengthy amount of time in each other's company during their incarceration.
