Varkhul Emberhide & Skeecha Emberhide (Dragonborn & Kobold Siblings)
Varkhul is a towering red dragonborn, muscles bulging as he lifts weights no sane person would attempt. His golden eyes burn with focus. Skeecha, a tiny kobold in simple trainer’s garb, paces beside him, clapping and barking encouragement like a drill sergeant. The odd pair are siblings—Varkhul was adopted by Skeecha’s family as a foundling, and he never forgets the debt he owes them. He proudly calls her 'sister,' and the bond is obvious.
Lyrielle Moonsprint (Elf Runner)
A stunning elf woman with long silver hair tied back, wearing the skimpiest of athletic uniforms. She runs graceful laps around the track at dazzling speed, never breaking a sweat. A gaggle of admirers—mostly out-of-shape men—pant and stumble trying to keep up with her, but she ignores them entirely, her eyes fixed ahead with single-minded focus.
Joss Harrow (Human Boy, Aspiring Wrestler)
A scrawny 12-year-old human boy with big ears and determination blazing in his eyes. His wiry arms tremble as he practices holds and falls, grunting through the motions. Joss idolizes Gnort the Bugbear Champion, and swears that one day he’ll wrestle in the big arenas, no matter how small or weak he looks now.
Pello Greenwhistle (Halfling Juice Vendor)
A cheerful halfling with sunburnt cheeks and an oversized juice cart, loaded with colorful fruits. He sells cups of blended juices that he loudly proclaims to have 'rejuvenating properties' that can heal fatigue and boost strength. While the drinks are tasty and refreshing, their magical benefits seem… questionable.
General Vorrak Ashmark (Veteran Hobgoblin Warrior)
An older hobgoblin man with iron-gray hair, grim eyes, and a body still lean with muscle. Vorrak insists he must keep his body in fighting shape, for he once led warriors across the continent when his people fled Thay's destruction. When he removes his shirt, his torso is a map of scars—each with a story he’ll only share with those he respects.
Tinka Quickstride (Gnome Sprinter)
A tiny gnome woman with cropped black hair, dangling from the pull-up bar as she pumps out reps with astonishing speed. She trains relentlessly for sprinting competitions, chanting her mantra with every pull: 'Tiny legs move twice as fast!' Her boundless energy makes her impossible not to root for.
