Arcan (English)

The Bugbear breathed heavily. He had been running breathlessly through the tunnels of the cave for too long, until he hid himself in a recess of that rocky hell. Never he, in his short life, had seen anything like that. That damn girl was alone. A girl with a slender body entered in that cave all alone, seeminly without care for her own life. For the whole group, when they spotted her, she seem an easy prey, just an assault at the ideal moment and the cat was in the bag; nothing more further and more false from what really happened. If it weren't for that pebble where he clumsily stumbled upon, his head would be rolling through those dark and damp corridors of stone, like all the others. The last thing he would have seen before been departed forever from his body, it would have been a faint flame igniting in the total darkness, a sickle appearing out of nowhere, and a subtle yet lethal slash severing every life in its path.
Huh? Footsteps. Something is approaching. Heavy like the echoes of the funeral bells in the darkness. Then the bugbear was holding his breath as much as he can. As a final try to keep himself alive, he was cutting that thread of air he has like it was the greater of betrayers. Something is approaching! It's here! It's huge, with luminous yet hollow eyes of the reaper. Then he heard only one thing, the voice of that girl saying: "Rook... kill him."

Unknown Travelers

The Unknown Travelers, the Silent Warriors, or the ones of arcane origin, later named Arcans. No one knows precisely where they come from or where they get their abilities. They are adventurers who do not attract much attention and, under an inattentive glance, appear to be beginners; but an expert eye can recognize the past of many battles reflected in their pupils. There are various legends about the origin of the Arcans; some say they are multiplanar travellers, others say they are forest spirits curious about cities, still others claim they are experiments born from the mind of some mad wizard, and others strongly maintain that they come from the world of dreams.

All-Rounded Warrior

These adventurers appear not to be a very social kin of humanoids, seeing them not say a word for days is not strange. They tend to be solitary, silent and emerging from who knows where very often; these are some few descriptions given by people who talk about them. But everyone agrees that the Arcans are warriors with surprising versatility and adaptability; it is not uncommon to see a merchant hire a group of these fighters and return home without a scratch, or even an innkeeper who is impressed by their ability to handle the chores, or a miner who is amazed to see that only a single basic explanation of the researched material, makes these adventurers capable of recognizing the raw metal by eye.
