They might be incorporated into this document once they are finished. It's up to you, Andrew :-).  The characters of Dun Barethsol are introduced here. Up-to-date and somewhat more extensive descriptions can be found at Andrew Michael Phillip's website\footnote{\sf \href{http://endor.hsutx.edu/~cptlogic/adonthell/04chars/list.html}{http://endor.hsutx.edu/\~{}cptlogic/adonthell/04chars/list.html}} .

5    \subsection{Leading Part}
6    These characters are essential to the game.

8    \paragraph{Marcella}
9    Marcella Kurwen is a fifteen year old orphaned Human. She has no idea who her parents were or what happened to them, only that they probably aren't alive anymore. She grew up with Padrig and Merigan Kurwen, raised as their daughter. Indeed, when asked about her father and mother, she usually replies that Padrig and Merigan are her parents.
10    
11    Marcella knows that there is a great deal being hidden about the recent past. She knows that whoever her parents were, Padrig and Merigan know but will not tell her. She knows that horrible and unspoken things happened in Erinsford. She knows that the people would like to forget, so they don't say what happened. She also knows that she can't explain how she knows some of these things. Feelings sometimes come of their own accord. Knowledge comes at times which cannot be explained as coming from any of the five senses which she had been trained to use.
12    
13    From these phantom scraps of insight and her parent's rearing, Marcella formed her goals. She is determined, somehow, someday, to know the truth of her birth. She is an intelligent young woman, trained to be observant. Padrig and Merigan taught her not only basic herb lore, but the high skill of reading. She is not an accomplish reader, or by any means a student of lore, but she can read well in the Human language of the southern parts of the world. She also knows a smattering of the Half-Elven tongue and can sing parts of their myth of the the world's making.

17    \subsection{Minor Part}
18    These characters are not vital for the game, but they may offer side quests, goods or interesting information about the game world.
19    
20    \subsection{Others}
21    The player will not meet these characters, but they are relevant to the background or are mentioned in dialogues with other NPCs.
