Punting and Iconics 2: Ragnar and Cailin

Ragnar Clevenger: Dominic's older brother. This foursome usually operates as two pairs. Ragnar was also a Ranger, now freelance, although he wasn't part of the Shadow Division. His current freelance assignments almost always lean that way now, though. Upper twenties in age.

Cailin Clevenger: Ragnar's young wife. She was the intended victim of vampire predation, but Ragnar was able to halt the process and chase away the vampire (sadly, he's still "alive" out there somewhere.) The partial predation has turned her into a dhampyr, a partially "vampirized" human. So, with her father's blessing, she married Ragnar, the dashing hero who saved her and became his freelance hunter partner.

Ragnar's contact is Alpon von Lechfeld. Cailin's is Brythe Aermeld. They see in each other a kindred spirit grappling with tragedy, and both hope to reverse the changes that they've been subjected to. Ragnar's choice (by me) of patron is to facilitate opportunities for further adventure that I foresee. 


Both Ragnar and Cailin share a common enemy, Lysander Draven, the vampire who first preyed on Cailin and turned her into a dhampyr. But he's really more a villain for Cult of Undeath, most likely, or even maybe a bridge between the two campaigns.

I'll also add Revecca von Lechfeld here. She's also not going to come to prominence until Cult of Undeath, but it would be nice to foreshadow that.

Also, Claud and his sister Griselda Lupescu are acquainted with the Clevenger couple. I'm not sure yet how they'll interact, but here they are. 


Claud also has a bit of a Mr. Hyde problem. Here's his alternate form. 

That were originally part of an alternate iconics group, but they are iconoclast rather than iconic and wouldn't make good patrons or contacts, so I haven't decided what to do with them.
