Vandien- Oldest Brother of an abusive squabbling family in dire poverty, Vandien realizes however terrible war is, it is his best chance to clean the dirt of his miserable past and escape squalor. Dark Chestnut hued hair, piercing blue eyes. His magical blasts writhe and jump in the form of lightning usually.
Richelle- Something of a beauty, and the only daughter from a merchant family that has known some success, Richelle is surprised at the reminder she is still a commoner when she is conscripted and her parents powerless to buy her freedom. She seems the most fearful of the lot, but grows to like the taste of power to her alarm. Light Ash brown hair, Brown eyes. Her magical blasts seem are prone to flames and flame like effects.
Flower- Another one born in poverty, Flower has had a hard life in the big city with just her and her mother who most believe to be a former whore gone as respectable as allowed. While definitely a Tomboy in many ways, Flower has been warned of letting passion get the better of her and taught self discipline is important. Curly red hair, gray eyes. Freckles. Her magical blasts come most often in the form of withering cold.
Harris - Is a big fellow, one would think he's the son of a black smith but in truth his father is a tailor and his mother a seamstress. That's all he wanted to be too. The most patriotic of the lot, while he regrets leaving his old life behind, he hopes to fight for his country. Raven Hair, Brown eyes. While his blasts have force behind them, they appear to be pure and brilliant white light.
Lyam- A thief conscripted just in time to avoid getting his hand cut off, you would think Lyam would be grateful for a chance to serve his country and thrilled to learn magic; Not so much. Lyam is not burdened by patriotism, and indeed sees no reason he should die for the upper-crust. He hopes to escape, but is having a hard time doing it when wizards have tracking spells and the like. Platinum haired and green eyed with a slim build. HIs blasts seem to wrap and constrict more than simply batter, and seem to be somewhere between fog and smoke in appearance.
