Meet Emira:
Specialization: Long Bow
Pronouns: She/Her
Race: Eladrin (Spring)
Birthday: Endurion 33
Age: 21
About the Player:
Howdy! My name is Timber (She/Her), though you can find me just about anywhere as "Seaglass Satyr"! I've been playing Dungeon And Dragons for a few years, primarily as a dungeon master for a swashbuckling pirate game. In my free time, if I'm not daydreaming about my dnd games or playing video games with my friends, I'm drawing. I absolutely love spending my time creating art. I'll be drawing a lot for the podcast and I hope you enjoy seeing this world the way I do. I'm excited to share this podcast and much more with you c:
The Harts family is a household name in Dremota. As the wealthiest family on the continent, and perhaps the world, the Harts have their hands in many pies, funding many vital services in Dremota, including generous donations to the Grand Order of Vena.
Eimira Hart is the sole heiress of the Hart family empire. However, her eccentric attitude goes further than spoiled rich girl. Eimira has a reputation of being... off putting. Like a butterfly underwater, she simply is out of place. Her faraway stare catches things that doesn't seem to be there. While friendly, her unsettling nature isolates her more than her intimidating family ties. Eimira excels as a student of the Grand Order, both striving academically and on the field of battle. Her mobility is as excellent as her deadly aim.
Reflective surfaces are a sure fire way to keep Eimira away. On top of her avoidance of mirrors and the like, Eimira is often seen partaking in superstitious activities-- carrying an iron nail, sprinkling salt on windowsills. She always seems to be looking over her shoulder. For who, or what, is a mystery to anyone.
Meet Ikaros:
Specialization: Glaive Mastery
Pronouns: He/They
Race: Unknown
Birthday: Temperion 13
Age: 21ish
About the Player:
My name is Luka, sometimes Rune (she/they). I'm a sewing educator by trade, but a lifelong artist, crafter, and general nerd by choice.
I've been playing D&D in some iteration since late 3.5e, and while rogues will always have my heart, I like playing combinations that aren't strictly meta for the roleplay. I live for the story, character growth, and the magic that is woven every moment in between at the table. And the dice. I really, really like my dice.
[404 Vena File Not Found]
Ikaros is an unknown in many ways, some even to himself. A devout follower of the Primus, he has been attending the Vena Academy following [Data Corrupted]. Recognizable by his deep red hair, and golden mask, he busies himself in the library stacks for research, or with fine artisan tools crafting pretty trinkets in his spare time, and nearly always has his nose in a book. Or rather, one specific book.
Ikaros carries himself with an air of gravity, and is slow to speak his mind, but he isn't what one would call timid. Instead, he seems to prefer to observe his surroundings and pick his words carefully, often sketching and recording notes in his heavy book. While fighting doesn't appear to be his strongest skill, he won't shy away from a battle, and is doing his best to learn how to bolster the strength of his fellow teammates.
Meet Meléti:
Specialization: Kusarigama
Pronouns: She/Her
Race: Unknown
Birthday: Kindlorn 21
Age: 19
About the Player:
Hi everyone! My name is Katelyn, but I typically go by Kate (She/Her). I've been immersed in the world of Dungeons and Dragons since 2018 and my love of the game just keeps growing the more I play. I've been a rogue/druid, a mystic, another druid, and as for Mel, she is an artificer. Mel has been by far one of my favorite characters to play and I love how her personality has developed over the game. When I'm not rolling 1's (trust me, my rolls tend to not be great, though Mel has been better), you can find me lost in a good book, creatively crafting and patterning, or dancing to my favorite tunes. I'm very excited to share this project with the D&D community. It's such a fun adventure that showcases the magic of our incredible Dungeon Master and the camaraderie of my fantastic companions. It was through D&D that we all met over the years and it also has been a big part of what has kept us all together. Each member of our group brings something unique to the table, that inspires me to continue pushing the boundaries of my own playstyle and share the excitement with all of you. I'm thrilled to have you all join us on our journey in Astralyn. Now buckle up, hold my hand if you'd like, because we have an adventure to get to and memories to create!
My name is Meléti Chimikós, though I go by Mel or Méli. I am the middle child of 7 children. I grew up in the city of Dremota, very close to my entire family. When I was 5, I started learning about potions, chemistry, and my passion, alchemy. It was at that time that started collecting all of my charms and trinkets. Once I was old enough, I applied to the Grand Order of Vena. I was so excited that I studied extra hard every day and night to become the best. Since my older brothers had gone there, I had a bit of trouble getting on the good side of my professors, even though I was nothing like them. I started acing all of my tests and becoming one of the top students after. The more I learned, the more my passion for chemistry and alchemy came through. I learned how to start using my potions in battle, which was a game changer. It is now time for our finals and I can only hope to make everyone, including myself, proud.
Meet Ruadhán:
Specialization: Gunblade
Pronouns: He/Him
Race: Variant Human
Birthday: Mollitar 9
Age: 20
About the Player:
Hey there! I’m Traven or Vince (he/him) and I’ve been playing DnD and other tabletops pretty regularly since 2017. Spending this time with my friends is certainly one of my priorities, and it’s like a dream come true to have maybe share a little of that joy with you guys!
I’m a late-20s trans dude who has been on HRT for over a year now, and so you actually get to hear my voice change throughout the episodes. Pretty sick! I’m an edgy goth in person and an autistic engineer by day so I’m a mega nerd. I spend most of my free time gaming with friends, watching anime, or hanging with my cats.
Ruadhán and I share similar fashion tastes and some of our views of authority and societal standards. I also feel it’s very important to have autistic and disabled rep out there and aim to contribute both through Ru and my own experiences. Hope you enjoy our adventure - and the awkward young’uns we’re playing!
Ruadhán comes from a family of accomplished Vena, so he always knew what was expected of him. Everything changed when he went through a brutal accident that damaged his spine and took his right arm, but ever since he’s been focused on still succeeding on this path and proving everyone wrong who may have doubted him.
Ruadhán Krieos ("roo-awn cray-ose") appears to have some orcish blood with green skin and a single tusk on his left side. He’s capable and strong, putting a lot of care and effort into pushing himself these past few years. He’s a natural skeptic and not particularly amiable, but grows to care deeply for those he’s in charge of as the team captain. He is learning to wield the gunblade, an armor-breaking tech combining a swift blade with lethal blasts.
Ru has had a lot of important mentors in his journey and has a complex view on the higher ups he’s been trying so hard to impress. He’s got a lot to learn and grow despite his efforts, but also seems to have an odd affinity of an unexpected sort that may imply ties to unexpected places and people alike.
Meet Cillian:
Specialization: Greatsword
Pronouns: He/Him
Race: Triton
Birthday: Kindlorn 3
Age: 22
About the Player:
Hello curious creatures! My name is Maxwell. I’m they/them with just enough religious trauma to play the perfect boy. I have a passion for rolling dice, D&D dice to be specific, or knucklebones; I will ALWAYS say yes to knucklebones. Though I've only delved into Dungeons & Dragons for a few years, my love for all things fantasy runs deep. Outside of D&D, I embrace creativity as both an artist and an archer. My artistic flair transforms game notes into intricate doodles of heroic, beefy fantasy figures, their tales inked on the pages. With a bow in hand, my arrows—whether metaphorical or physical—fly with unwavering precision. I never miss! But… don’t fact check me on that. What truly captures my heart about D&D is the spirit of cooperative storytelling, the meticulous world-building our Dungeon Master conjures, and the joy of exploring that world with a phenomenal group of friends I hold dear. Each person at this table is a spark of creativity, bringing unique flair to the tapestry of our shared adventure. I feel incredibly lucky to be surrounded by such an amazing crew. And then there's Cillian, my treasured character—I hope you get to know him and love him as much as I do. He's perfectly crafted (in my humble opinion!) and, of course, he’s never never done anything wrong in his life. Never. Not once. I can’t wait for y'all to tag along on our journey! —With love, Max
Cillian stands proud and proper at 6’3”. His wine red hair is perfectly quaffed and his clothes are always as clean as can be. He wears a smile on his face and has a kindness for others that some can find endearing. Raised within the walls of the Holy See, Cillian is a devout worshipper of the Primus. With goals to rise in the ranks of the church, he graciously accepts a mission bestowed by Dakath to assist a group of Vena on their first mission. Will he be able to worm his way into the group? It should be easy, he’s never done anything wrong in his life. Never not once.
Meet the Game Master:
Hey there, adventurers! I’m Charles (He/Him), your GM for the journey ahead, and I couldn’t be more excited to guide you through the twists, turns, and chaos of our wild campaign. A little about me—I've lived all over the western U.S. before settling down in San Antonio, TX. I've been deep in the world of Dungeons & Dragons for the past 7–8 years, and DMing has been my passion for most of that time. Sure, legends like Matt Mercer and Brennan Lee Mulligan have inspired me, but my biggest influences are my friends and players. They constantly push me to grow, dream bigger, and one-up the last session. Honestly, I wouldn’t be here doing this without them. Outside of D&D, I’m a lifelong gamer—whether it’s World of Warcraft, Final Fantasy XIV, or just about anything with a controller or keyboard. And when I’m not neck-deep in fantasy worlds, you’ll probably find me out in nature, camping under the stars. There’s nothing like the forest to spark inspiration for a new story arc or setting. So, what’s my goal for this show? To tell incredible stories with amazing people—and invite you along for the ride. If we can offer you a place to escape, imagine, and laugh (maybe even cry a little), then we’re doing something right. Thanks for being here. Settle in, get comfy, and let’s roll some dice.
Meet the Editor:
Hi, I’m Noelle (They/Them)! I’m a half goblin half machine like person who is super passionate about content creation. I also love anything to do with TTRPGs and have edited a few other D&D podcasts at this point. When I’m not bringing these epic fantasies to life you can find me streaming on YouTube and twitch (@Pixlvt - always stay plugging) where I play turn based rpgs mostly or you can hear some music I make! No matter what project I’m working on the most important thing to me has always been finding interesting ways to tell stories and connect with a community. Hope you join us and we can become one big cult together!
