Bonjour tout le monde,
Votre groupe de personnages sera donc composé ainsi :
Dans la suite de Dame Ameline, chacun aura donc un personnage principal, et une possibilité de remplacement - sans compter d'autres gardes et mercenaires, des servantes et serviteurs, et quelques personnes diverses.
Vu que plusieurs personnes ont choisi le même "genre" de personnage dans leurs préférences (logique, j'ai donné peu d'exemples construits ^^), je tâcherai de les rendre plus variés que ce que j'ai écrit pour le moment.
