Editing Quest:Lamia Daughter Quest (section)

== Party ==

* '''Ssen Patrick''', a [[Lamia]] [[ranger]] who became the first lamia [[paladin]].  She's good with a bow or sword, and her snake-like lower body is strong enough to crush a man in armor.  She gets a lot of flak for being a lamia, though she remains devoted to fighting the good fight.  It turns out that Ssen is actually lizard-tongue for "Name" -- when Liam Patrick asked her what her name was, she merely parroted the word back at him.  Her actual name, given by her mother, was Ssuad, meaning "fourth born, monster" -- she was the fourth child in her family, and would have grown up corrupted by Citadel.  Her name is also a meta-pun on Saint Patrick, who is known for (among other things) banishing all snakes from Ireland.
* '''Tricia Greats''', a "wasp witch", or a sort of [[druid]] who can communicate with insects.  She and Ssen grew up together; while their relationship was not always friendly, they have grown a lot closer after fighting for their lives together and encountering bigotry and hatred in other towns.
* "'''Mage Patrick'''", a nameless boy who was rescued from a band of Ghouls (see below) who were going to eat him for his magical talent.  Ssen tried calling him Bob, Muna, and other names, but none of them seemed to fit him, so she started calling him Mage, and the name has stuck.  He was later adopted by Ssen as a brother, and thus now uses the last name "Patrick".  His life is dominated by two things: to-do lists (containing all of the crazy magic ideas that /tg/ -- through Ssen -- wants him to look into) and beautiful, dangerous women.  He's the only male member of the party (though a Citadel-inspired painting of the party depicted him as a woman), and he has attracted the romantic attention of the queen of the elves (as part of a plan that involved him pretending to be the reincarnation of her husband -- she wasn't fooled, but things were apparently going well between them until the Dramatae tried to kill everyone) and Her Illuminated Self (read: the Pope).
* '''Persephone''' ("Peri"), a quarter-elf [[rogue]] rescued from another band of Ghouls. She used to be a member of [[#The Fey Court|the Fey Court]].
* '''Marietta ''' ("Mari"), a thirteen-year-old prodigy scholar.  Her soul was separated from her body and placed in Peri's; one of the party's long-term goals is to get her back in her own body, which is presently in cold storage at the Conclave in White Tree (though, after getting a little drunk from Peri's drinking, she admits that she likes being a "sexy quarter-elf assassin").  In the meantime, she and Peri have had to get along, which results in hilarious hijinks when Mari wants to return items that Peri steals, and some tears and vomit when she experiences her first kill. She's also discovered that she's a dead shot with a crossbow.
* '''Lea Ughruda''', a [[monk]] who wears bandages all the time to cover up the bruising, discoloration, and scarring from when she got treated for cancer. She has some talent for music, and is a very devout follower of His Light and the holy scriptures known as "The Teachings."

=== Titles ===

Isen originally nicknamed the main party the "Beautiful Nightmares" and the "Saviors of Purple Sands" after they saved Purple Sands from an insane wasp witch.

The other members went ahead and spent some of the reward money on armor and clothing that has red and green highlights (red for Ssen's hair and green for her scales) in an approximation of a uniform.

They earned the title "Champions of First Wood" after stopping Donovan.

"Liberators of Stone Hall" came after stopping the Ghoul invasion and occupation of Stone Hall.

Ssen gained the title "Hero of Citadel" for saving Isen from Peace's arrow by diving in front of it.

Later on the group takes up the name of the "Caligo Clarus" or Clear Occuli, an old order of Paladins and other people devoted to aiding people through times of great change and difficulty.  Motto: Within the Darkness is Where the Light is Needed Most, thus There In The Darkness We Must Stand.  Often referred to as the Light in the Darkness.
