=== General Plot D. Vice ===

http://www.niagaraartcollection.com/Photo/portrait-old-man-face-600.jpg<BR>

General Plot D. Vice (Nobody's really sure what the D is for) has been around for a very long time. There are references to him in the Old Kings stories from 100 years ago. No one knows how old he is, all they know is whenever there seems to be know way out of a situation, the General will show up. He used to be a General in the Siverow army during the great war, and his experiance has helped him be in the right place at the right time. Many adventurers of Smearth have come to rely on him, as he has saved many lives over his career. He is frequently seen wearing a train conductors hat or with a steam whistle nearby.

=== Optimus Pine ===
Optimus is the current leader of the Ancients, a group of treants who have been entrusted with the task of making sure Siverow is united under one flag, and that it is lead by someone with integrity and bravery. He is unlike previous leaders of the Ancients because he sees it as their duty to help the Smearthlings build their cities and fight beside them in their wars. With the aid of his Lieutenant, Bumbletree, he roams the land, keeping an eye on the rest of the Ancients and lending a giant wooden hand wherever it is needed.

=== Mapletron ===
<BR>
http://www.apple2.org.za/gswv/a2zine/GS.WorldView/v2000/Sep/Graphics/TREANT.JPEG<BR>
Mapletron wants what Optimus Pine has, and thinks that the Ancients are being comepletely misrepresented. He does not agree with the current leadership of the material plane and has made it his personal goal to put a stop to Princess Apricot. Many believe that he has gone mad, partially from the time he spent in the service of the Dire Fiend, and partially because he rants like a maniac, even when no one is around.

=== Grotis ===
<BR>
[[Image:Dark_Grotis.jpg]]


Grotis is one of the most powerful entities in all of Smearth. Even as a lower end paragon character he was able to defeat a powerful mind flayer on his own. He was once a powerful agent of good, but this time came to an end when he was incarcerated by the Dire Fiend for a crime he didn't commit. His arm was ripped off in a struggle with the guards and soon after he lost his eye in a prison fight. It was only through his sheer mental fortitude that the Illithid running the prison could not read his mind, and subsequently thought he was " up to something", and took him away. Nobody knows what happened next, only that the mind flayer was found dead with Grotis next to the body. Grotis the Gnome, identical twin brother to Otis the dwarf, now wanders the land in search of a new arm, his arrival heralded by tumbleweeds. 

In truth, Grotis is merely a doll used by the druid Adrik while in wolf form to trick people into thinking the doll was talking while using ventriloquism to make it seem the wolf was speaking. The doll came with a shillelagh in his hand, and when the party was captured by the Dire Fiend's forces, they believed the ridiculous ploy and tried to take Grotis' weapon from him, and ended up pulling his arm off. The guard then ran screaming as Grotis only smiled, and he "hadn't signed up for this". The mind flayer that Grotis defeated, was under the impression Grotis was a powerful character with a mind block spell even though he was really only a freaking doll, and when he took him away to eat his brains, only ate stuffing, and choked to death on it. His last thoughts as he died was "How could I be so stupid, 'cough' 'cough'.

=== Thomas ===

http://spacepug.files.wordpress.com/2007/10/jekyll.jpg<BR>
Thomas is a Earthling who first showed his face during the Dire Fiends occupation of Fortress von Castle. Despite claiming he had been on Earth when the end came 100 years ago, he appears to be in his mid thirties. He is commonly seen wearing what is known to the people of Smearth as Earth-plate, and carrying a Dark Matter sword. His cold demeanor tends to garner distrust from others, but he does not seem like the type to be looking for friends. He has a history with Valera Ballard and her sister Katherine, but very little is known about it, other than Katherine's abduction to Earth and Thomas' assistance in getting her and the other Smearthlings home. 

Thomas assisted the effort to remove the Fiend from power and then returned to the Smoon. He remained there until he learned of the Babies appearance on Smearth, which grabbed his attention immediately. He tracked the Baby down, and to his dismay, discovered that soon Smearth might suffer the same fate his home had. It wasn't long before the Baby and the adventurers he had joined up with  discovered that Thomas was really a creation of the Devils on his home world designed to kill evil people to feed their souls to strengthen Hells armies. He was given the mind of a good person who sought to fight evil. As part of hi creation, Thomas could not be permanently killed, and would resurrect shortly after dying. This, however, would send his soul to Hell for a short time, and he would be irreversibly corrupted by the evil there, loosing part of the humanity that became the only thing he valued over his thousands of years of life. He warned the adventurers that should he be killed again, his mind would become too much like a devils, and that he would be to much of a threat to be allowed to live. He asked them to find a way to put him down once and for all if this happened.

The next time they would hear of Thomas, it was of his death at the hands of Asmodeus' forces. Thomas then apeared after Mephistopheles attack on Darkenon, now with a much more devilish appearance, and claiming that he had manipulated the group into doing everthing that had caused the devils to attack. He attacked them, and lost, but instead of killing him, they took him prisoner, as some of them saw his appearance as a disguise. He was trying to trick them, and they wanted to know why. The people of Castletown had another opinion, and demanded that he be put to death for his crimes. The Baby risked everything to break Thomas out of prison and Beardy helped by replacing him with a look alike. The Baby dragged Thomas out to the middle of nowhere, and left him there. Before he left, Thomas demanded that he be killed for his crimes against his people. The Baby agreed to meet him in 3 months at the Wood of Petrified Ancients, and kill him then.

=== The Emperor Of Spines ===
<BR>
http://www.smashbros.com/en_us/characters/images/bowser/bowser.jpg
[[Image:drybowser.jpg]]<BR>
Former General for the Dire Fiend when he ruled Aethis, The Emperor of Spines ruled the district of Drakeberg Mountain. With the help of his sons and daughter, the Emperor was one of the most powerful generals, and because his district housed the Corrupter, he was the most respected by the Fiend, gaining a great amount of power from the his leader. The Emperor was well known in Aethis for taking ordinary monsters and enlarging them and covering with spines. When Aethis' end came, so to did the power that flowed through the Emperors veins. He was reduced to a lowly Heroic tier villain and fled the city with his family. He became a mercenary, hoping one day he could gain enough resources and the know how to steal the power he once had back from the Fiend, preferably without releasing him from his prison. His time came when he was hire by King Gargamel to simulate an attack by the Goblin Kingdom on Castletown, and kidnap Princess Apricot. The king had hoped this attack would drive the people of Siverow together, for he thought they were never united except against a common threat. The one thing he had not counted on was how the Emperor would use the advance gold he was paid, by buying a fleet of airships and launching an all out attack on several fronts. He even claimed Fortress Von Castle as his own, sending King Gargamel running for the hills. After searching the Fortresses library, and unearthing the plans for the mobile fortress and the location of a huge deposit of adamantium, he sent his children out to recover the indestructible metal and build him an indestructible siege engine. Though none of his plans succeded, his efforts to regain his power did backfire and release the Dire Fiend from his prison.

=== Dwarfvinci Dwarvinci ===
<BR>
http://www.science-facts.com/leonardo-davinci.jpg<BR>


Dwarfvinci Dwarfvinci was a brilliant inventor and arcane practitioner in his day, which was several hundred years ago. He believed firmly in the celestials and chose to worship them as a pantheon rather than chose one. Even in death, he continued his work and created several powerful artifacts and gave on each to the most good gods. These artifacts are said to contain the power necessary to control the mighty titan of the Harbingers of salvation. He also has a lesser known brother Elfvinci Dwarfvinci who was a spiritual guide who was trained in clearing haunts out of large keeps, but no one really cares about him most of the time.

King Gargamel was the acting King of Castletown when the Emperor of Spines made his move on the city. Soon after it was discovered that Gargamel had in fact ordered the Emperor to attack, and he made his escape. He wasn't seen or heard from again until the Dire Fiend sought him out to help with his domination of the plane. Gargamel was granted a magical suit of armor and a crew of soldiers to obtain the Fiends goals.

King Tepenhopentep was a powerful lich who terrorized Smearth in the time of the great kings. His wrath brought about the destruction of the Mobile Fortress and he even attempted to assassinate Maximilian Von Maxwell on several occasions. Though it is not very well know, he even made a deal with the group of undead from Earth who launched the attack on Sohim Sarak. He agreed to pave the way for their invasion if they would hide his phylactery safely in there dimension. More recently, his temples and castles have become major tourist operations run by the Path of Conquest Legionaries.

=== The Titan ===
<BR>
http://www.benintendo.be/wp-content/uploads/2007/06/projecthammer.jpg<BR>

The last of the old gods from before the time of the current Celestials, the Titan is currently contained within a scepter. The Harbingers of Salvation are all that remains of his worshipers and they even tried to release him during the great war. The legends of the Titan's greatness tell tales of the old gods battles forging the material plane of today. This particular gods hammer is said to have created the hills and valleys of Smearth, and his fire spells created the stars in the skies.
