My Rychillan characters wear short (1" long) sleeved or sleeveless tops, usually in a steampunk-esque style. This is partially due to the humidity & heat, and partly due to the practice of tattooing terax marks (social status indicators) along the arms.

Rychillan clothing is usually light and sleeveless. The former due to the subtropical climate, and the latter due to the tattooed marks along the arms. These indicate social status, profession, and other achievements. Covering them is considered dishonest.

Rychillan fashion is 'short sleeved steampunk'. They have tattooed marks along their arms (terax marks) that indicate profession, rank, social class & noteworthy achievements, and don't want to cover these up.

It's also a humid subtropical climate.

Rychillans have tattoos known as 'terax marks' going up their left arm, starting at their wrist. These indicate profession, rank, social status and accomplishments. This can be seen on the artwork of Karis and Tenora below (art by ).

Secondly, Nelack is the 'wandering mage'. They stand at 5'1", unusually short for a Rychillan. They've also got heterochromia. Both their eyes are natural colours for Rychillans, though.

Nelack Elmet is a non-binary mage, who missed out on a career in their home town due to nepotism. After a divine nudge, they've spent three years wandering around Rychilla, doing good deeds and learning. They know more of the kingdom than any other Rychillan.

Rychillan clothing is usually very short-sleeved. This is due to the tattooed marks that run up their arms, which indicate social status, etc.

Forest fairies usually wear clothes woven from plants and leaves, but town fairies wear outfits closer to humans.

Nelack is a skilled mage, who has been wandering the Kingdom of Rychilla for the last 3 years. Despite being young, they have a breadth of experience that exceeds that of most Rychillans.

When they arrive in Alkentoft, they're looking to settle down.

Charlys is my next core character. She's a forest protector, and has known Yaetherim since they were younglings. She's a nokind, which is a fairy without any elemental magic. This is rare, but it does happen.

My next core character is Naeliya, a waterkind town fairy. She started out as a messenger in the town of Alkentoft, but soon grew bored with it. So she's stuck in a rut at the moment.

Next character intro is Tenora, a Rychillan arch-mechanic. When not running her workshop, she enjoys tinkering and hanging out with her friends. She's kind and doesn't like seeing people get hurt.

Not sure if I've done character intros here, so here we go.

This is Yaetherim, the main character of the Cases. He's a former forest protector turned private investigator. He's cynical & manipulative, with florakind magic.
