True Friend (Odilio brother aged 31 who stood by Mariella despite the presence of the Blatant gift and helped the maga while a child, the Odilio has now joined the church and is a missionary/monk in the Pomeranian area and the Mariella feels she owes a debt to help and aid this person)
Born to a family in Northern Italy , difficult childhood due to the strong Gift until found and recruited by a Flambeau magus. Trained at a covenant in Northern Italy by a Benedict filius Phillipius Niger following in the school and magical lineage of Apromor showed a great ability in destructive magic’s. Soon grew to disdain melee believing a magus should be above such things but at the insistence of her parens learnt the use of the X-Bow for those cases where magic would not suffice. The covenant located near the border with the Transylvanian tribunal was the home of several Flambeau magi, as well as several members of House Ex Miscallanea whose origins lay with a group of necromancers similar to those recruited by the Tremere these mages had stayed out of the order until Apromor brought them into the order after the founding mainly to spite Tremere they live quietly at the covenant staying out of Hermetic politics and avoiding the notice of the Tremere. In return for the protection of the Flambeau magi of the covenant they help in training new magi and in the case of Marialla they where able to teach her the basics of their leadworking technique
Initially unable to find a covenant to settle in traveled to various flambeau covenants learning of the ideals of the house, learning of a new covenant trying to bring more mages into the Order traveled there to assist in the noble endeavor of recruiting into the order and also protect those involved in the endeavor should they face any dangers.
Appearance
Short, and small framed women with short black hair and pale skin, dresses in plain black robes
My character sheet is here
In short: Born in the novgorod tribunal to a anastacia, a young maiden, and a faerie prince who impregnated her, and later made her beleive it was a dream. The maiden was ousted by her family, and had to fend for herself.
However, the faerie prince was married, and her wife pursued both stacia and ardath with her hate.
Ardath had sad and solitary young years, and life was hard. When ardath was still young, her servants killed stacia, and ardath herself was cursed and left to die in the woods. She was rescued by a magus, Konstantin Ex Miscellanea, who took her as her apprentice, and inducted her into his tradition of summoners, the Children of Kalesh. This destroyed ardath's wild talents with earth and stone, leaving only the cold shard of Obsidian to it. However, ardath took remarquably well to hermetic magic, mastering every spell taught to her.
However, near the end of her apprenticeship, her stepmother learned of Ardath's continued survival, and soon renewed her efforts toward ardath's doom. Her master advised ardath to flee until she gained enough strength to protect herself (which they both beleive she will if she tries hard enough), and she did this, applying for membership in a young covenant, where she'll be a peer and not a lowly magus, and settled for ad fons, hoping to improve her magic through contact with the pomenarian witches.
She arrived a short while ago, along a french shield grog, but carrying herself a sword, and isn't acquaintanced with the covenant or the local language yet.
While beautiful and visibly wanting to make things work with others, she doesn't seem to be a fool either.
I'm going away a few days, see you later everyone!
Apparently, I was mistaken about the views of Bjoernaer-magi in repect to shapechanging.
I decided to change the house. One more Ex Miscellanea, that is 
So, after a couple of last-minute changes...
Yannick Ex Miscellanea, Aged 27, 5 years out of Apprenticeship
Appearance:
A man of average height and weight. Short clean-cut brown hair. Brown eyes. No beard at all.
Wears the clothing of a peasant rather than flashy wizardly robes.
He only carries the least equipment possible (including a dagger, a short spear and a piece of chalk), as he needs to leave it behind quite often anyways, due to shapeshifting in more or less appropriate situations.
A little luxury must be though: He travels on a horse of the patient coldblooded type, more by his animal ken than his riding skill. You find him arguing with "Ludwig" now and then. The horse is a Schwarzwälder Fuchs, wich is often used for work in the black forrest.
Story:
Yannick was often sent out for tasks amongst "mundanes" during his apprenticeship, due to his gentle gift.
Though he very often enjoyed them, he sometimes got bored as well.
How often can you tell a baker that his tarts are tasty?
How often argue with a fisherman about his fish being fishy?
Out of sheer boredom he started sticking his nose into other peoples business. That was fun. So he just kept getting into trouble time and again.
Somehow, his preferred shape seems to have an influence on his mind...
Yannick is fully consient, that his skills in espionage need improvement.
His magic centered on himself and Animal make spying a challenge.
He spent the last two years preparing to join in Justus Felix project. He's more interested in the witches than the lycantrophes though
Possible Companions:
It is very likely that Yannick travels with one of the more action-oriented companions. A rogue, bard, hunter or a downright bully would fit. Would anyone like to slip into that role?
Place of origin: Rottweil, Rhine-Tribunal
The Wizards Sigil:
Targets of Yannick's spell and/or surrounding persons tend to have the feeling that they saw this coming.

[size=150]Manius Niger[/size] ex Miscellanea, description:
Manius is a medium sized man with black skin and hair but he isn't an African (for those who know how an African looks). He has a strange face but you don’t know why. He looks like being around 30 years old. Manius looks and behaves threateningly people tend to obey him automatically. Sometimes even their flesh creep in his presence.
He dresses like a lesser noble and wears a hat. When Manius arrived (on horseback!) he wore a hauberk with coif. He usually wears a sword and has a whip hanging from his belt but he didn't used it yet.
Manius sometimes changes his appearance when needed. He often uses telekinesis when doesn't want to stand up, dismount the horse and such.
He speaks low German. Manius is a Latin name and means dawn so his name is a play with words.
Frederick Ex Bonisagus, Aged 26, 1 year out of Apprenticeship
Appearance:
A small man, usually with a friendly expression on his face. He allways has a nasty cough which increases in winter. Frederick walks slowly with his ever-present walking stick. Wearing clean, traditional wizardly robes and long, well tended hair. He carries a bag with some food, a candle and a dagger. If he travels, he usually travels on a cart or on ship, because of his poor health.
Story:
Frederick grow at the house of Philip I of Swabia. As the son of the captain, he would be a soldier. But when very young, he got sick. He had a difficult life at the court until his tenth, when he was taken by a magus. The Jerbiton had recognised the gifted child quickly, and taken to his convenant to the relief of the people around the wortheless boy. After one year of apprenticeship, his feeling with magic attracted a Bonisagus from Durenmar. A bargain was made and Frederick went to Durenmar to become an apprentice there. He liked the atmosphere, and the respect he got for being a interested and intelligent student. But at the end of his apprenticeship he had much problems with the older magi, he could not handle the authority and felt cramped in his growth. Especially his parens worked him on his nerves. After hearing about a new-found convenant, he decided that he migth find his freedom there.
Place of origin: Durenmar, Rhine-Tribunal
The Wizards Sigil:
The spells of Frederick contain straight lines, sometimes giving them an unnatural look

Appearance
Justus Felix is a man with quite good looks even though they aren’t extraordinary they still draw attention especially from the women. He has quite long dark hair and shows little sign of ever being able to grow a beard. His eyes are steel grey and full of determination. He is a man who cares about his appearance and more fit into the Jerbiton stereotype rather than the hedge wizard stereotype.
Background
Justus Felix had rather uneventful childhood as he grew up in a little village of Pomerania. Even though he grew up in Pomerania he learned to speak German as a child. Justus father where a trader who travelled the land and traded items back and forth. As Justus begun to develop the gift it became more and more difficult for his father to have him with him. Luckily for his father an magus offered to by the boy for a significant amount of silver. Thus Justus begun his apprenticeship.
Justus followed his master far and wide in the realms of the Rihne tribunal and where trained at a number of different covenants that he and his master stopped by. After passing his gauntlet Justus Felix begun to train for setting out on a mission to civilise his former home, having heard the tales of werewolves and witches as a child he knew that it where work to be done there.
During his travels in the Rihne tribunal he had met lots of magi and made quite an impression on most people he met, especially the women. As he had a self imposed mission to civilise the denizens of Pomerania, Justus begun to work for a chance to fund a covenant of his own in the deep forests. Justus bargained and where give lots of favours but where at last given permission to fund a covenant in the Pomeranian forest.

lol we were close on this one 
Yeah. 
I just realized she hasnt anything in his hands.
I hope others will make their pictures. A picture is better than any description.
Yes, and this program is flexible enough that one can pretty much do as he pleases, as you witnessed 
I like Heromachine I used it a while ago to illustrate several characters,but lost it. Thanks for pointing out the web site.
I couldn't think of or find anything appropriate to be in Mariella's hands as she doesn't really use any tools. Maybe when I get a talisman
Yup, this is by no way a requisite.
Well, he're's my grog for the group that's going to accompagny the hunt for books.
Formerly stationned at durenmar, he was never felt an asset despite his skills, because of his lack of loyalty to the covenant and the maguses.
So, when Justus asked for help to the rhine covenants in creating Ad Fons, he was sent along frederick and his escort, both to guard him along the way and to serve in the turb of Ad Fons.
