About the authors (WIP)

Sonia Carreras: The person behind this blog. Spanish. Older than you imagine. Happyly married and with one extraordinaire son. Roleplayer since 1990, met her husband in an RPG game. Joined Deviantart in 2008, but started using it only after the videogame Dragon Age: Origins stole her soul. Co-founder of  The Merry Mabari Roleplaying group in Deviant Art and that was which stole her life. Plays Mari and the very neglected Veronica. Other characters she created are Mari's parents (Edanhor and Lynn, as well as Raphael) and the honest templar Ser Campbell. Puts in words Mari and Kyle's stories because she's so devoted to this pair it is almost unhealthy.

Pham Ngoc Trinh: the brain in the shadows. More talented that she will ever admit. Vietnamese. Could be Sonia's daughter. Met her in The Merry Mabari Roleplaying group, where her character Kyle was romanced to death by Sonia's character without previous warning. Plays Kyle and Tahl there, but also Ryan Cousland (her canon warden in the original computer game), Lirya, Lindy, Seth and many other supporting characters. Also creator of most of the stories, including Kyle's awesomely complex background and many clever AUs. Loves angst. Maybe too much.

Guest writers:

Pau Norontaus: Co-Founder of The Merri Mabari Role Playing group (and host of of the livestream where the idea was conceived) and creator of most of the original graphic resources, including the logo. Played Mihitu. GMed some of the first quests, like "Relic Hunt" and "Winterbollocks on the run".


Zara Arletis: Player of the character of same name, and of the mage Idris, one of the earliest friends of the couple in the game. GMed many stories, some of them personal quests like "Wedding at the Peak" or "The heart of the children". Also turned some of them to prose. A creator in pure form.

Dramatis personae (WIP)

I don't really know if my characters sre Mary Sues or not. In my mind, they have strong and very definited personalities, but I may have not been able to transmit it properly in my texts. Sure they have had tragical events in their pasts, but that's usual in the world they live. They're not chosen ones except for the people close to them, and definitely they have many flaws, that I hope balance their extraordinary lives.

Anyway they're here because I love them. If you read their stories and love them too, I will feel proud and be grateful to you and to your patience. If you read them and think they're lifeless characters, Mary Sues in the worst of the meanings, or you just don't like them... Well, I will be terribly sorry, but you don't need to return here. Nobody will force you.

To know them better, here's a short bio of all of them:


 
The actors we'd love to see playing them if they ever made a movie...


Kyle Mallory: The hero of the story, even if he doesn't consider himself so. Found near Highever as a newborn, close to the corpses of his murdered parents, by the elf Lirya Faelivrin, he was raisen at the Highever alienage as if he were her child, even if he was human.
To know him better:

His character sheet
An early meme
An interview at the RPG group
A lot of questions to know him better
Character Compendictionary
Inspiration meme








Marilyn Lyn/Mallory: his beloved wife. We will live the story through her eyes. A hotheaded, ginger elf who started as a filfthy street rat to a decent married woman. Always with adventure thirst.
To know her better:

Her character sheet
Interview at the roleplaying group
Some questions answered

Newest meme
