{{herobios table row|source=roe|Caitlin|img=Caitlin (HotA)|Cleric|Human|bgc=4|F|Gold|Before she was granted command, Caitlin was considered by some to be possessed by evil spirits.  Despite these claims, donations to her church were unsurpassed when she was still in the church's ranks.}}

{{herobios table row|source=roe|Ufretin|img=Ufretin (HotA)|Ranger|Dwarf|M|Dwarves|It is unusual to see a Dwarven Ranger, but for Ufretin the skills came naturally.  He has become an icon to the surface-dwelling dwarven population, and a natural born leader among all dwarvenkind.}}

{{herobios table row|source=roe|Neela|img=Neela (HotA)|Alchemist|Genie|bgc=4|F|Armorer|Neela is one of the strongest of her kind, being able to resist an incredible amount of punishment.  She somehow is able to instill this resistance in the troops she commands.}}

{{herobios table row|source=roe|Iona|img=Iona (HotA)|Alchemist|Genie|bgc=4|F|Genies|Iona proved long ago that she was more powerful than most of her kind, but her charming personality prevents those who serve her from being intimidated by her strength.}}

{{herobios table row|source=roe|Solmyr|img=Solmyr (HotA)|Wizard|Genie|M|Chain Lightning|Solmyr was trapped in a genie bottle for over a millenium, and was so grateful to the human who finally released him that he accidentally swore to serve the man for eternity.  As fate would have it, that man is Gavin Magnus, the immortal ruler of the Bracada Highlands.}}

{{herobios table row|source=roe|Nymus|img=Nymus (HotA)|Demoniac|Demon|bgc=4|F|Pit Fiends|Nymus was responsible for training Pit Fiends and Pit Lords for the attack on Erathia.  Her combat skills nearly led Eeofol to complete victory, but the deal between the Kreegans and Dungeon Overlords brought the initial campaign to an early end.}}

{{herobios table row|source=roe|Ayden|img=Ayden (HotA)|Heretic|Human|M|Intelligence|Originally a shaman, Ayden offered his services to the Kreegans, discovering a dark desire to one day rule his own kingdom.}}

{{herobios table row|source=roe|Axsis|img=Axsis (HotA)|Heretic|Demon|M|Mysticism|Axsis showed a natural aptitude for magic at a young age, which makes things even more strange than normal, as demons rarely show a natural aptitude for anything that requires thought.}}

{{herobios table row|source=roe|Olema|img=Olema (HotA)|Heretic|Human|bgc=4|F|Weakness|Olema spent her entire life in Eeofol, but when the Kreegans arrived, she talked them into letting her serve as a guide to the land, and has since proven her ability to lead.}}

{{herobios table row|source=roe|Galthran|img=Galthran (HotA)|Death Knight|Vampire|M|Skeletons|Over the years, Galthran has developed new methods of creating and commanding skeletons which provides him with a distinct advantage in combat.}}

{{herobios table row|source=roe|Ajit|img=Ajit (HotA)|Overlord|Human|M|Beholders|Ajit studied carefully the works of Agar, the foolish wizard/scientist of Enroth who accidentally created the beholders and evil eyes which he now commands, training a 'better breed' to be used in combat.}}

{{herobios table row|source=roe|Damacon|img=Damacon (HotA)|Overlord|Troglodyte|M|Gold|While Damacon has always been a bit of a pushover, even among other troglodytes, he can sniff out gold almost without trying.  He will donate gold to any cause willing to allow him to lead.}}

{{herobios table row|source=roe|Alamar|img=Alamar (HotA)|Warlock|Human|M|Resurrection|Alamar served Archibald Ironfist during the succession wars, and was barely able to escape Enroth following Archibald's defeat.  He has since taken up residence in Nighon where he secretly serves the Dungeon Overlords.}}

{{herobios table row|source=roe|Jeddite|img=Jeddite (HotA)|Warlock|Human|M|Resurrection|Some say that Jeddite has seen the face of Zenofex, but many contend that since Jeddite is still alive, the rumor of a meeting could not possibly be true.  Jeddite has never confirmed nor denied the rumor.}}

{{herobios table row|source=roe|Sephinroth|img=Sephinroth (HotA)|Warlock|Human|bgc=4|F|Crystal|Sephinroth claims to be the illegitimate child of King Gryphonheart.

{{herobios table row|source=roe|Yog|img=Yog (HotA)|Barbarian|Human/Genie|M|Cyclops|Yog studied for many years with the Wizards of Bracada, but he was often found reading texts on war rather than those on magic.  The Duke of Krewlod offered him a military command, allowing Yog to happily use his knowledge of war.}}

{{herobios table row|source=roe|Gurnisson|img=Gurnisson (HotA)|Barbarian|Goblin|M|Ballista|It is unusual for a Goblin to rise to any sort of position of power, but Gurnisson demonstrated a natural aptitude in Ballistics that quite literally launched him into a successful career as a hero for hire.}}

{{herobios table row|source=roe|Gretchin|img=Gretchin (HotA)|Barbarian|Goblin|bgc=4|F|Goblins|Not only is Gretchin an excellent leader, but all who follow her will tell you the same thing - she's like having another mom who can take care of you.}}

{{herobios table row|source=ab|Pasis|img=Pasis (HotA)|Planeswalker|Elemental|bgc=4|F|Psychic Elementals|Pasis has always been extremely fascinated by those of Corporeal form.  Extensive research and interaction with these creatures made her an ideal candidate for the Conflux.}}

{{herobios table row|source=hota|Henrietta|Mercenary|Halfling|bgc=4|F|Halflings|Even a humble halfling from the Eeofol backwoods is capable of a feat when an unprecedented calamity knocks at the door.

{{herobios table row|source=hota|Dury|Mercenary|Human|bgc=4|F|Armorer|Dury spent the longest time in search for a magician who would not just promise to, but actually eliminate the repercussions of wounds she had sustained in dozens of clashes.

{{herobios table row|source=hota|Celestine|Artificer|Human|bgc=4|F|Armadillos|The AvLeean druid, who had lost his grove, traversed the wold, imparting knowledge on anyone who sought it. He left the secrets of natural magic and his daughter Mirlanda in Tatalia, while in Eeofol, Celestine was born, inheriting another facet of his talent.

{{herobios table row|source=hota|Ziph|Artificer|Gremlin|bgc=4|F|Lightning Bolt|Ziph had long served as a maid to an old mage who looked down on her and her kin.

After meeting Floribert, the inventor found another use for her engineering knowledge, designing mechanical limbs for crippled warriors.}}

{{herobios table row|source=hota|Eanswythe|Artificer|Human|bgc=4|F|Weakness|According to hearsay, it was Eanswythe who concocted the potion that poisoned Regna's first emperor Hareck before fleeing for Jadame.

{{herobios table row|source=ab|Kilgor|Barbarian|Human|M|Behemoths|Since defeating his father for rulership of his clan, Kilgor has earned much fame throughout Krewlod.  Many consider him the only man capable of winning the generational [[Festival of Life (event)|Festival of Life]].}}

{{herobios table row|source=hota|Lyadra|img=Cyra|Wizard|Human|bgc=4|F|Haste|Lyadra's scope of interests covers any creatures capable of independent flight, especially those that look like they should not by flying at all, like bone dragons. Recently, she has also been drawn to the unusually rapid flight of angels; however, the scientific community is not yet prepared to accept Lyadra's theory that there is some kind of technology behind it.}}

{{herobios table row|source=hota|Balindar|img=Theodorus|Wizard|Human|M|Magi|Balindar was the first in Bracada to test the Enrothean technology of using the best steel armor to create statues slated for animation, rather than regular rock, ore, or even precious metals. The rigid-minded golem-building academicians did not welcome this innovation, so Balindar's works, although far superior to their prototypes, still bear the experimental status.}}
