Roleplaying Volia
As an engineer for 213 years so far, Volia knows airships better than most people. Despite that experience and the reputation it brings, she still gets some push-back as an elf in a dwarf-dominated profession.
In her younger days as a dock mechanic, she’d tried to quietly let her work speak for it...

Roleplaying Urrik
Urrik has the strong, silent charisma of a seasoned captain. He speaks little, knowing that makes his words carry more weight.
He inherited his captaincy by luck and quick thinking. When the ship he was on capsized in the air, sending its entire crew to the endless Cielaterran fall below, he was wea...

The skyborne archipelago of Cielaterra is but a dream for many until they arrive. To live here, you need to master flight through magic, mechanics, or a trusty wingmount. The ever present threat of an infinite fall isn’t easy on your senses.
And if you do become an aeronaut skilled enough to navigate the skylands, then you...

Roleplaying Zarissi
Zarissi is curious and intelligent, looking to do the impossible: record every song and spell the Melorealm has ever known.
She believes music and magic are no different, and that “magic is quite simply what affects people.” Her approach to life and learning is bookish, contrary to the many de...

Roleplaying Carakor
Somber in demeanor and mute in voice, Carakor communicates with the grace of her rapier and the precision of her steps, like any good Bladeancer should.
Coming of age in the Melorealm without the ability to speak was difficult, but it’s what drew her to the art of Bladedancing and compelled her ...

Roleplaying Corelle
Overly courageous, a little crude, and a bit conceited; Corelle believes she’s well along on her quest to become the Melorealm’s most famous bard of all time. She might be right.
Corelle’s talent for song and taste for hyperbole lead her to spin everything she does into a tale of adventure. ...

The bardic birthplace; the manifestation of music; the provenance of poetry; the upper plane known as the Melorealm is the origin of the Muses and the source of all song.
Those who have traveled to the Melorealm and back offer drastically different tales of what the plane is like, from a beautiful, euphonious heaven of angelic...
