Name: Pietro Valentini ,“Rat” to the cult of Plague Doctors

Gender: Male

Skills/ talents: Pietro is incredibly well versed in Calligraphy (the visual art of writing), consequently he makes use of this to forge various signatures and letters, as well as writing the loveliest birthday cards. He is also an avid practitioner of parlour magic (despite not having much in the way of real magic). Due to his lack of physical (or Magical) strength he relies on “weaselling” his way out of situations through deception and subterfuge.

Weapons: Besides a simple dagger Pietro doesn’t really posses weapons (due to his aforementioned deficiency in combat and magic). However, he is surprisingly good at improvising and as such he can use some of his calligraphy tools i.e. sharp metal nibs, Ink, parchment, wax etc. to thwart his opponents. As a last resort he possesses a hidden blade concealed within one of his boots.

Appearance: (Will add an actual image later) Pietro is a small with long and dark whiskers, his hair is rather messy and gives the (false) impression that he is slightly crazed. He opts for plain clothing with orange and yellow being prominent colours. However, when amongst unsavoury types he wears dark clothing and obscures his face with a masquerade mask in the shape of a Rat (Hence the moniker).

Personality/Bio. Pietro is a Calligrapher originating from the city of Florence, his penmanship (whilst not known by a great many) is highly sought after. As a result he is able to live a relatively comfortable life from the job opportunities he is afforded (some legal, others less so). Whilst he has not a great deal of contact with the cult, he occasionally dabbles with them when it proves “profitable”.

Pietro is an opportunistic fellow and is generally happy to work (for the right price of course), his morals can be somewhat flexible when an “opportunity” proves itself to be especially lucrative.

Both the appearance, nickname and bio remind me of Peter Pettigrew from Harry Potter

Name: Sir Hydronicus the knight

Gender: Male

Skills/talents: Expert Swordsmanship, hand-to-hand combat.

Abilities: While Hydronicus lacks major magical talent, he is very booksmart in the field. He often applies his knowledge of magic to identify certain magical abilities at play, and devise ways to combat them.
Although unable to really cast spells, Hydronicus wears an enchanted suit of armor. It grants him a greater invulnerability to both magical and physical attacks, and increases his physical strength as well.

Weapons: Hydronicus mainly relies on his sword, which also carries an enchantment. It can heat itself to red-hot temperatures, and is her durable.
He also uses a shield for defence. The enchantment on it can project a temporary, indestructible magical barrier around himself or another target. The barrier only lasts for 10 seconds however, and Hydronicus can only activate it 24 hours after its previous use.
Appearance:

Personality/Bio: Sir Hydronicus is a highly skilled knight, working as an advisor and guard to a royal coart. The identity of the court and its members is a closely guarded secret, unknown even to Hydronicus. They are most likely some secret society.
After hearing of the seal-branded body being found in the streets, the court sent Hydronicus to investigate.

A matchlock handgun could work as those have been around since the 13th century
