Name:
Rh'salk

Age:
???

Gender:
Female

Country:
???

Appearance:
Rh'salk stands at 140 centimetres tall. She has pale skin that while within human skin tone ranges, is a bit on the greyish, sickly side. Her chest is completely flat, with her neck and ribs being decorated by gill slits. Her facial features consist of a mouth with serrated teeth, part of her incomplete metamorphosis, and blank white eyes, also part of her incomplete metamorphosis. Other traits include her ears being fins and fins growing from her arms, legs and such. In terms of an outfit, she is completely naked, though her long, frizzled seaweed-hued hair covers her.

She also has a Shoggoth she is allied with, appearing as a bubbling mass. It is unclear whether it is her pet/familiar or it is something of an ally, but it does work with her. This Shoggoth is advanced enough to assume the form of humans and other organic beings, like a Shoggoth Lord, but it cannot replicate clothing.

Bio:
The Deep Ones demand humans from settlements to breed with. Some of these resulting hybrids are returned to civilization in order to spread the word once they are ready, and others remain with the Deep Ones to mature. Rh'salk is one such, albeit due to circumstances, she could never truly complete her metamorphosis. As a bridge between humanity and the Deep Ones, she often sneaks onto land, using her abilities to telepathically commune with Deep One hybrids even before they show the first signs of awakening, allowing metamorphosis to come a lot sooner.

History lesson the communists didn't start winning until after WW2 when the nationalists were weakened

Ah, so the communists didn't have an edge before WW2 so my character would have no reason to believe they'd win. Got it.

Name: Marcus Aurelius Ballard

Age: 53

Gender: Male

Country: United Kingdom

Appearance: Marcus is a middle height, graying rapier of a man. He's an even 6' tall, lean and wiry. His face is sharp and angular with deep set, intense blue-gray eyes. He typically wears a conservatively cut dark gray suit and carries a cane.

Bio: Born the third son, and fourth child, of minor nobility in 1882, Marcus found his way to Oxford to study history at the turn of the century. In 1904 he found himself working with an Egyptology expedition. He proved himself an astute archeological anthropologist and was assigned to several Royal Anthropological Society expedions to India, Siam and Palestine.

It was on a brief return from India he married his long-time sweetheart Emily White. Emily began to accompany him on his expeditions as his scribe, secretary and artist - her hand and eye much finer for sketches than Marcus's own.

While researching ancient ruins in the Siamese jungle after the signing of the Anglo-Siamese Treaty of 1909, the young couple hired a young house girl named Srirasmi who they both came to adore and rely on quite heavily.

Marcus began to suspect a connection between a butterfly god he'd seen in obscure and nearly forgotten Egyptian hieroglyphs and one he discovered in the ancient Siamese ruins. That no link between the cultures had been recorded or even hinted at, made the relationship tenuous at best, but the likenesses were startling.

Two years of study had revealed a wealth of information about Siamese history, but only the barest scraps about the dark butterfly deity.

It was 1911, and Marcus and Emily were gifted the birth of their daughter, named for the house girl who had cared so well and diligently for Emily throughout her pregnancy.

Enjoying the surprisingly good relations between the Siamese government and the British Empire, the Ballard-Whytes remained in Siam, working in the ruins until 1914.

At the outbreak of The Great War Marcus was called back to England and conscripted to lead a Siamese detachment that would fight along side the Royal Army.

With Emily's death in the Spanish Flu outbreak, Marcus sent young Srirasmi back to Siam to be looked after by the woman she was named for.

After the war, Ballard returned to Siam. Having made no progress on uncovering more information about the butterfly demon, Ballard accepted a senior position with a new dig in Egypt. The elder Srirasmi was unwilling to to leave her aging parents and her namesake was sent to boarding school in Gloucester.

While Ballard found further hints, without Emily as his scribe, his notes were less robust, disjointed and the images poor. Meanwhile, Srirasmi spent more time answering to the headmistress, and Marcus eventually sent for his daughter.

She replaced her mother as his secretary and both were happier for it, though Srirasmi could see the hollows the horrors of the war had left in him.

The pair chased the shreds of evidence across the shrinking empire until last year.

Marcus was presenting his findings on the poorly recorded demon-god that seemed to have strong parallels in Siam, Egypt, Turkey, India and perhaps the Belgian Congo. During the presentation, the brute Challenger interrupted him, calling Marcus a "dim-witted of, too smitten by yellow hussies to realize he was a charlatan, chasing after the imaginings of his oriental girl-child"

Marcus, a seasoned veteran of both the harsh trenches of France and Belgium as well as Siamese boxing drove an elbow into the famously ride oaf's temple and asked if Challenger would like to continue outside.

Whole not officially banned from the RAS, no patron will see Marcus and few so much as top their hat to him at functions.

He finds himself relegated to tending to the aging, broken men at St. Germaine's and following Srirasmi's progress as she leveraged her youth and more than a decade of experience to join the new Antarctic expedition.

Name: Srirasmi Ballard-Whyte

Age: 24

Gender: Female

Country: British Empire

Appearance: Tall, slender and fit. Her red hair, green eyes and porcelain complexion reveal her mother's deep Irish roots.

Bio: Born to British aristocrats in Siam, Srirasmi is named for her parents' house girl and assistant. The earliest years of her life were spent in the Siamese jungle ruins her parents were studying. While most of her memories of these formative years are impressions of running, climbing and eating with the older Srirasmi, the time established her as an athletic, adventurous soul and taught her to speak Siamese.

When her father was called back to England during the Great War, Srirasmi found herself in a strange, alien land of petticoats, cruel daughters of petty English nobles and the raging Spanish flu that killed her mother.ย  The brief stay was traumatic and Sri,though devastated by the loss of her mother, was glad to return to the lush green of her Siamese home.

At the end of the war her father rejoined her in Siam and they returned, with Srirasmi, her husband and their children to the hidden jungle ruins. Two years skittered by, running, climbing, going to the Muay Thai matches in the nearby village with her father and Srirasmi's husband, Petanchai.

But Father's studies had stalled. Without Mother's assistance, his records were scant, disjointed and the drawings much poorer than hers. Frustrated, he took a position on a new expedition to Egypt and Srirasmi found herself returned to the cold misery of her parents' homeland.

Now, without her mother to keep their home and her beloved nanny unable to leave Siam, Srirasmi found herself in an all girls' boarding school. Unaccustomed to "polite" English society, and exceptionally capable of defending herself, the young Ballard-Whyte soon found herself on the wrong side of both the other girls and the head mistress.

By 1923, in the wake of the discovery ofย Tutankhamun's tomb, there was a renewed interest in Egyptology and Srirasmi's father summoned her to join him.

Again relieved to leave England's weeping skies and bitter aristocracy behind her, Srirasmi joined her father in Egypt and took over as his assistant.
