Terra 7
(Walants 7)
Fred 7 Thessamer - Lord Frederigo D'Honaire aka Fred Lord Fred is
the son
of one of the great dukes of the Kingdom, and he is also the most heroic
warrior. On a personal note, his lucky direction is left. He
is a young knight,
intimate with the etiquette of royal circles and a gentleman. He is
a very
thoughtful man who in times of difficulty uses his sense of reason to guide
his
actions. His first instinct in any circumstance is to tell the truth,
yet he is not
foolish enough to give away information if it would endanger his life or
the lives of
others. He knows some basic magic, for within the Kingdom all schoolchildren
are taught simple incantations, including a spell to distinguish the real
from the
unreal. He is prepared to survive in even the harshest of conditions,
and he has
undergone the training for keen sight that is necessary for all the King's
forces.
Lord Fred was commissioned by the King to vanquish the most terrible Dragon
of the Southern Caves. While in the caves he encountered and freed
the
Aqualarian princess, Astra. After being duped by the shape-shifting
dragon-beast he succeeded in his quest by hurling his sword into the very
heart of
the dragon/hellhound. Instead of bringing closure to his journey, this
event
brought on many new and strange travels which had numerous consequences; the
most devastating of which was the complete shredding of his body by some
ape-creature called Bobo. A second traumatic event was his transformation
into
a demi-fox. This led Fred upon a journey of self-recovery that saw
his meeting
with a rogue dragon, the death of both the rogue and an evil dragonmage, and
his
accidental cure of the magical malady. Yet though cured his circumstances
saw
him the prisoner of a greedy lawyer by the name of Master Rift, and then
of the
Paine Gang. Finally he found freedom at the hands of a small army of
dwarves.
Though free he was disheartened for he believed that his companion and
friend,
the Princess Astra, was killed by an army of orcs.
Fred began his journey home guided by three dwarves: Baren and Dokken,
and
Lem. What should have been a short trek through Fox's Forest turned
into a
nightmare of death as the foursome met upon ghastly birds, a glade of buried
corpses, a clearing with hanging corpses, wild monsters, ghosts and demons.
Finally it was Fred who found a way out of the possessed forest with the
aid of a
stranger. He returned to the aid of the dwarves in time to witness the
death of
Baren. Using a sword he found in the lair of Minestus, Nelheth-Mord,
he killed
the 'Demon of the Underbrush' and guided the surviving dwarves to relative
safety. Fred was far from comfortable having the magical sword but
on
attempting to discard it he found he could not. The sword, somehow,
would not
allow Fred that liberty!
They resumed their northward journey and soon came upon a damsel in distress,
a damsel who turned out to be Fred's sister Rowena. She had come south
ooking for him and now that she had found him...or was found by him, they
would return home together. She did have some disturbing news, however.
There were rumours that the Queen of Aqualaria was dead and that some nobles
of Allaria wished to enlarge their lands by taking Aqualarian territory.
Fred knew
he must return to Caemlyn as soon as possible to report to the King about
all that
had passed, all that he had learned...about dragons, Aqualarians, and the
men of
the southlands.
However, the whole of it became moot when he and the others got transported
to
Terra Prime. There, he discovered the falsehood that Tarin had told
him in that
Astra was dead.....and would have have torn into the dwarves with his sword
if
others hadn't intervened. The guilty of the dwarves were hung.
Astra and he
were reunited and their children resurrected (and placed back within the
restored
Astra 7 by Rule 179).
Astra and he are now happily married and neighbors of Fred and Astra 5,
who
share a similar history.

Astra 7 Thessamer (aka BLACK ASTRA) - Princess Astra is a royal
daughter of the lands of Aqualaria. She is a young, tall, athletic and
full-breasted
redhead (because red hair is a rarity within Aqualaria she stands out as
a beauty
among beauties). Being an Amazon princess brings advantage and peril.
One
benefit is that she was trained early on in the soldier's art. She
not only
understands the necessities of life at Court, she too is a commander of skilful
warriors. Though she knows the ways of death, her greatest desire is
the
protection of life. She finds the killing of innocents -from the child
in the womb to
the aged in their huts-repugnant but sees no wrong in eliminating those who
spread evil.
Astra was captured by Velus, the Dragon of the Southern Caves, and imprisoned
by him to serve as an amusement. It was Lord Fred who rescued her.
After the
death of the Dragon the beast's Master, Minestus, magically transported Astra
and Fred to the Calamari Desert. After an encounter with the kind if
befuddled
scientist/mage Dr Vincent she was transported by the Dragonmage Minestus
to a
strange place. There she unwittingly stepped through a magical portal
which sent
her to a room with no doors or windows. She then metamorphosed into
a
werewolf. The dragon Minestus appeared and remade her into something
else,
something resembling a were-fox, and he placed her in the woods by
his lair.
She was reunited with Fred and had sexual relations with him.
This had strange
and unforseen consequences. Though the magic that affected Astra
is not fully
understood, she definitely became something more than just a were-fox
and Fred
took on similar characteristics. The pair was met by the dragon Malachi
who
helped them enter Minestus' lair in order for Malachi to take revenge upon
the
evil dragon and to find the instrument of their possible cure, the Crystallic.
The
two dragons fought to the death, but in her last dying breathes, Malachi instructed
Astra and Fred to journey to Walants with the Crystallic in search of the
one
called Synizn.
Walants proved trickier than they had originally thought and the two were
imprisoned the first day. They were then released under the care
of their defense
ttorney Master Rift who forced them to take him and his companion
Tarin-Gazin to Minestus' lair. Half-way there the two accidentally
used the
Crystallic and regained their human form, yet still they remained the prisoners
of
Master Rift. One day later, however, they were taken captive by the
Paine Gang
and became the 'property' of said gang. They were returned to Walants
-with the
intention of auctioning them as slaves- when, unexpectedly, Master Rift returned
and rescued them with the aid of the fighting dwarf Tarin. Astra was
being
blackmailed by the lawyer who knew that knowledge of her pregnancy would
be
detrimental to Astra's honor and bearing back in Aqualaria. Because
of this she
obeyed him in his quest to get the Minestus' treasure horde. Along
the way,
however, the barrister thought it wise to conceal her identity so as not
to attract
undue attention. He chose to do this by using the crystallic.
The magic of the
gem transformed the well-tanned red-head into an ebony-skinned woman with
jet black hair!
Astra went a bit mad (arguably) at being transformed into a black woman.
Her
madness, though, gave her inspirations of freedom. She continued to
aid the
lawyer and the dwarf get to the lair of Minestus yet once there the foursome
were
met up with by an army of dwarves. And then an army of orcs soon followed
ready to do battle! As a warrior princess the whole scenario was one
of baffling
simplicity, and though she knew the odds were against her, she found herself
a
weapon and wnet at the orcs with a vengeance. In the ensuing battle
she was
severely wounded, and because the dwarves did win, she was immediately
treated with dwarven medicines. These medicines put her into a catatonic
state
and so when Lord Fred reappeared and when the dwarves told him she was
dead, he believed them and so left her body in the company of the dwarves.
But fate stepped in and she was teleported along with her kidnappers to
Terra
Prime.
There, several things happened. Her skin and hair color were
restored to normal
(by the powers of the mysterious Rule 179). She found out that according
to the
church of Aqualaria that what had befallen her (getting pregnant and such)
was
NOT a sin against the Goddess of the Hunt. Indeed, it was aceptable
for Astra 7
to marry and actually bear children...and still remain a preistess of her
chosen
goddess. That did wonders for her and thus she found herself whole,
mind and
body.
She now is happily married to her love, and the happy mother of three children
that had come from her instinct induced coupling with Fred so long
ago.
