Major Contacts:
  
*[[Arimia]] - She's smart, isn't afraid to state her opinion and is the best friend I could hope for - better in some ways, even. This raccoon is proof that apostate deserve more respect than they're given and I for one would be more than willing to lay my life down for her if need be. If more people were like her, the world would be a better place - and I'd have no problems with drinking. I'm glad she's helping me through that.
+
*[[Alef]] - She's a little rash at times, but her heart's in a good place. She seems to know her way around magic quite well, but part of me isn't sure whether she bites off more than she can chew sometimes or doesn't know her own limits. That said, she's a bit younger than I am. I suppose there are some pros to being a little older than most of my peers seem to be. I respect her.
 +
 
 +
*[[Angus]] - Certainly my closest friend over the years. I'm proud of how far he's come since I first met him, those years ago. I have my share of regrets, things I could've done differently, but such is life. He's still around, and that's more important than missed opportunity. I only hope his relationship with Kalt goes as well as I hope it would, but lately I've had reason for concern. I hope he's holding up all right, behind the stoic facade.
  
*[[Kilsa]] - One of the first beings I was aquainted with in Firmament. She is a kind soul if ever there was one and provided me with a place to stay, materials to research and jobs to take care of. Once, this badger said she thought of me as a sister, and I'm inclined to think the same. I don't think I can put into words how much this badger has worried me recently, but thank the creators she's safe. I don't know what I would've done otherwise.
+
*[[Bite PC|Bite]] - A good lady to be around, Bite keeps her word and she's a genuinely kind soul at the heart of it all. Even if she came off as materialistic at first, I've grown to respect her abilities and her actions. I admit her constant desire for hugs is a little off-putting at times, but I don't begrudge it. It would seem we all have some skeletons in our closets around here.
  
*[[Kiyasai]] - While we may have gotten off to a... Turbulent start, this Snow leopard has proven herself to practice what she preaches. We have radically different viewpoints on certain things, but they haven't become a problem since we met. I'll admit I her unwavering faith is a little unsettling at times, but she does her best to help everyone and I can respect that.
+
*[[Cassidy]] - A battlemage of house Solacious. Fairly unremarkable profession for her house, but she is skilled in her craft even if the flair she tends to employ isn't something I care too much for - I've always preferred more practical approaches. She's demonstrated her abilities enough in the field for me to afford her recognition, at least, and possessing the mind to apply my work in three dimensional magic is something I have to respect as well, even if I'd rather have seen it turned to less destructive ends.
  
*[[Wulf]] - She's nothing short of reliable and practical. Recently I've found myself to respect her for her ability to act and act well, regardless of the situation. It's nice to meet someone with such a refreshingly different background. Especially since she seems the kind of being I could share a cider with and chat to about whatever has happened lately.
+
*[[Flora]] - A strange tiger with incredible skills at clockwork and machinery. She seems naive at times, but at others she poses some very good questions. It's obvious she's intelligent, but... I'm at a loss for how this woman hadn't learned to write until I opted to help teach her. And then making a camera and turning out to be the daughter of THE infamous Longtails... Well, she's in for a rough ride.
 +
 
 +
*[[Jera]] - An odd fox. I don't quite recall when we met, which is unusual. He seems to be a good enough being; very skilled in air magic. I don't see as much of him as I'd like to, but he is a busy being to say the least. I do disagree with some of their choices, but there's nobody that I've never had divergent opinions to.
 +
 
 +
*[[Kalt]] - Foul mouthed and very much a country woman, but Kalt is a lovely being with a heart of gold... And a lot of wanderlust. I don't know what to make of her extended absences - I wish she would say something more about her plans before dashing off without another word, if not for leaving me to worry, but for how that's effected Angus. I can only imagine I'm seeing half of this or less, from my own experiences with another.
 +
 
 +
*[[Kilsa]] - One of the first beings I was acquainted with in Firmament. She is a kind soul if ever there was one and provided me with a place to stay, materials to research and jobs to take care of. Once she said she thought of me as a sister and I'm inclined to think the same. I don't think I can put into words how much this badger worries me sometimes, but thank the creators she manages to come out intact. I don't know what I'd do otherwise.
 +
 
 +
*[[Kiyasai]] - She says she died and came back. She says she's the same, but she's not showing it. I can't begin to imagine what happened in Mossy stone, but I miss the leopard that practiced what they preached and didn't take a side exclusively. We had our disagreements on many things and didn't always get along but this woman was my friend at the end of the day anyway. I hope it's just stress masking her actions, and I wish she just didn't hide it. I think I'll... Miss her, now she's back in Shralesta.
 +
 
 +
*[[Lidiya]] - I'm amazed. It's been almost a decade since I last saw her, and now she's showed up in Firmament? I didn't recognise her at first, but she's changed a lot in that time. Her lot in life has improved, and for that I'm glad. It's nice to know some of my acquaintances still remember me after so long.
 +
 
 +
*[[Meyna]] - Arimia seems to like her and I'd be lying if I said I wasn't fond of her too; she's practical, reliable and gets things done. She mightn't be quite who I thought she was, but I'd count her among the more grounded people I know - if not a bit more vicious at times. It's all balanced out in the end by her realism, something that seems to be lacking in some of the other beings I'm acquainted with.
 +
 
 +
*[[Sierra]] - A mechanic who Arimia and I live right next door to and share a workshop with. She's a good woman, willing to talk even if a lot of the engineering concepts fly over my head or give me splitting headaches - not for lack of trying. Sometimes she comes off as a little bit too carefree or abrasive, but at least it isn't carelessness that drives it and lately she's seemed more grounded. Someone I can call a friend, at the end of the day.
 +
 
 +
*[[Sveta]] - She seems a little easily distracted by some things, but she has a more level head than a lot of beings up until that point. I'm not sure if she has a high opinion of me or if that's her usual manner of speaking, but I think she's more talented than she believes. She's mastered more souls than most beings own from what I can tell -- there's a lot of untapped potential in her, if she ever has the opportunity to exercise it. Also fairly interesting that she's the first bird I've met proper in Firmament as well.
 +
 
 +
*[[Wulf]] - She's nothing short of reliable and practical. I've found myself to respect her for her ability to act and act well, regardless of the situation and it's nice to meet someone with such a refreshingly different background. Especially since she seems the kind of being I could share a cider with and chat to about whatever has happened lately. Certainly someone to turn to with matters when I don't know where to start.

*[[Angus]] - Somehow, this talkative two-tailed 'noble' has shown up almost every time I'm at the inn. He seems to be nice enough, though I don't know enough about him to consider him anything other than an acquaintance yet. Though something about him, or something he's done has pissed off Arimia at some point. I'm curious.
+
*[[Ariella]] - Bite's sweetheart and a very good performer, but I haven't seen her do much outside of the inn. She seems nice enough to me, though she can comes across as a little vapid sometimes. She does have a good heart at the end, and a past I'm not at liberty to discuss.
 +
 
 +
*[[Arimia]] - A source of more than enough regret for me, on more levels than one. I hope I never have the misfortune to cross her path again; it'd only end poorly.
 +
 
 +
*[[Bazalt]] - An odd shadow. He's quite enamored with the idea of being a being, but I don't think he's equipped to deal with the emotions that he's put himself into a collision course with. Though shadow or not, it'd be wrong of me to not offer some advice on how to handle them.
 +
 
 +
*[[Cedric]] - An interesting case of a badger, he reminds me a bit of Kilsa sometimes. He's certainly amicable enough; hopefully we'll cross paths more often.
 +
 
 +
*[[Dio]] - Dio, the self-professed traveller. He's older than myself or Arimia, and possibly one of the oddest beings I've met. I wouldn't mind being able to get in touch with him at some point or another; the few times I've worked with him, he's proven himself thoughtful and reliable as his age would imply.
 +
 
 +
*[[Eleni]] - She's a soldier from home. I don't think there's much else I can say about that; she carries herself a bit more casually than I'd expect, though I'll chalk that up to having met her in town and off duty every time. If she does take her job as seriously as she makes herself out to, then she's certainly a being I respect.
 +
 
 +
*[[Ictus]] - I'm still not terribly fond of this fox, after the abhorrent first opinion he gave. However, he is showing himself to be more tolerable than I'd expected and he does get things done - even if he is rather flaky at times. I suppose there's something to be said about his choice of lifebond, but that's not relevant to me. May they live happily.
 +
 
 +
*[[Mirana]]  - Apparently, this kit has finished her time in Shralesta - then promptly gone missing again in apt time to delegate resources to her 'own' projects. Irresponsibility personified. I would expect more from her, though it would seem she has little intention to see anything through to completion - as though she only does things to say that she can in spite of evidence pointing to it being a bad idea.
 +
 
 +
*[[Rixo]] - Never have I ever met someone that's claimed to have traveled about so much - from a place I've never even heard of, to boot. But, she's a good soul and for the talks we've had I'm glad to have met her.
 +
 
 +
*[[Siyu]] - A businessman from Shralesta. Our views and upbringings are so incredibly different I'm not sure our views will remain reconcilable, but he is a respectable being at the heart of it all. It'd be wrong of me not to acknowledge that.
 +
 
 +
NPCs
 +
 
 +
*Anya - A fellow lecturer at the Sweetwater academy. She's a very excitable salamander and prone to some unorthodox methods. I appreciate her more... eccentric ideas; food for thought and perspective are valuable.
 +
 
 +
*The Good King - Well, I suppose it'd be wrong to call him a contact per-se. I've met him on several occasions but it's all business, all the time. At one point I turned down a reward from him in favor of sponsoring the Ironsoul orphanage, and I don't regret that.
 +
 
 +
*Juliana and co. - While the family is gone, Juliana was a lovely child and her parents were interesting people to speak with. I doubt I'll see them again, but if I so I'll be sure to try and get a moment of their time.
  
*[[Ariella]] - A very good performer, but I haven't seen her do much outside of the inn.
+
*Lukas Wirefur (Deceased) - My tutor from my youth, and an exceptionally skilled magician. He was close to my father, the two having been peers when they were studying back before I was born. When the scandals involving my parent's murder and then Eldric Wirefur's warmongering, he seceded from his house as an act of contrition, of sorts, and retired to Heartfall in Sweetwater to live out his last few years. As someone that I knew well, who had such close ties to my own family... I'm going to miss him.
  
*[[Bite PC|Bite]] - I've heard a lot of good things about this taipan. I've yet to see her disappoint. She seems nice enough, but I don't think I've ever met someone quite as materialistic.
+
*Dr. Sinclair - She's a strange woman. But, that's okay. She knows a lot and I don't expect her to give any answers freely, but she's made herself the subject of a personal challenge. I wouldn't mind surprising her, but given her breadth of knowledge, vastly superior technology and presumably a significantly greater library at her disposal, I doubt I will.

Family:

Deceased, I'm afraid to say. I lost my mother and father to a politically motivated house fire while I was studying; Lukas passed away of old age in March of 480.
