Recollection City

Bern is the next in line ruler of his home town. He is currently an engineer, a job that fits him and that he loves. But soon he will have to make a choice to either leave his comfort behind and become the leader he has been trained to be, or to let the position of “Princeps” pass to his younger brother. Bern loves his family and his girlfriend. But also his city and it’s people. He naturally takes a place in the background, but somewhere in him is the desire to step out and be seen.

Max is a police officer, following in the footsteps of his father. He loves his job, but something is off lately, and people are starting to notice. The fact that his father is on a secret mission and not heard from for a while doesn’t make it much easier. Max is starting to feel very responsible for his family; and in a way for Bern, as his family has always been close friends and advisers to the regent family of Narrati. The events unfolding will either heal him or break him.

Ivory has never been one to follow the rules. After some difficult teenage years she vanished without a trace…until now. Turns out, she is a goldsmith. And she somehow houses a dark secret she won’t talk about. Ivory has recently come back to Narrati, even though no one really knows why. She might have lost some of her wild tendencies and seems closed like an oyster sometimes, but she can still have sudden outbursts of emotion and impulsive behaviour. She somehow knows more about sword fighting than her friends put together.

Robbie has just been on an adventurous journey through the entire country, gaining new experiences and doing many little jobs everywhere. But in essence he is just looking for a direction in life. His previous plans have all fallen through and now he thinks he has to “settle and get a normal job.” Quick to look up to people, Robbie rather listens to what he thinks is expected of him instead of what he wants for himself. He still does things in an unconventional manner though, so he might end up on a new adventure anyway.

Valeska lives abroad with her father, who is an inventor of sorts. Even though she is proud of him she would love it if he would spend a little more time with her. She has a few friends in school but all in all she feels a bit lonely. Her mother died when she was very young and even though she has all the books and toys she could want, she would trade it in an instant if she sees how other parents treat their children. Valeska is very bright and learned a lot about technology and science. She is a little shy, but due to her father’s disdain for “weakness” she is very driven to become a stronger person, whatever that means.

Lilina is Bern’s girlfriend. Originally from the city of Reveria, she now lives in Narrati after her relationship with Bern became more serious. Lilina is a people person with a very soft and, sometimes, cheesy side. She always believes the best about someone and can be very vocal about that. Even though her sweet side can make her seem quiet, she used to be a spokesperson for minorities in Reveria and can have a very assertive and powerful presence when needed.
