I'd be much obliged if the NPC's in this profile were treated as PC's for roleplaying purposes. Thank you friends.
Name: Duke "Peacemaker" Kasseldown
Age: 19
Race: Human (Male)
Hair Color: Light brown
Eye Color: Grey
Height: 5'11"
Weight: 159 lbs.
*Occupation: Farmer, Gardener, Philosopher, Peacekeeper
Personality:
Duke is a true flower child. He is an extreme pacifist, a powerful young man who would not lay harm to another to protect his own life. Perhaps because of this, he does not fear death, and quite literally lives each day as if it were the last of his life. He makes constant effort to meet new people and spread happiness anywhere, mostly through music and free love. He meditates through tai chi, and can be considered at times an old head on young shoulders. By contrast, he has an energetic youthful personality and remarkably open sexual appetite. He is powerfully loyal towards his travelling companions and always looking for friendship. He yearns for universal happiness and works tirelessly to achieve it, one person at a time. Of course, he makes sure to have fun while doing so; after all, he could die any time.
Singing: Duke has a fine tenor voice. Even more so than his mere presence, hearing him singing tends to make people feel happy.
Guitar: Duke has been playing guitar literally since before he could walk and adores the instrument, practicing it constantly.
Charisma: Because of his natural disposition, Duke comes off as the most enthusiastic, charismatic person you have ever met. Those with open minds find it almost impossible to truly harbor feelings of anger against him.
Intellect: Duke could be considered a genius, but does not express it in any of the conventional ways. However, he seems to be constantly aware of the feelings of those around him.
Education: Extremely well educated, Duke speaks Elvish and Salvic in addition to Common. He is well versed in most wordly topics and ready to discuss them with anyone friendly.
Farming: Duke is an expert farmer and gardener, maintaining the growings of his farm rigorously.
Appearance:
Duke is a teen in phenomenal physical condition. His build is slim and athletic, much like that of a cross country runner. His light brown hair reaches down just past his shoulders and is perpetually messy, always loose and windswept. His face and body show the signs of a young man that has lived outdoors most of his life, which at his present young age makes him very attractive. His skin is always tanned from hours in the sun, for even in the winter he seeks the great outdoors constantly. Despite being slim he has a definite muscular build, and is generally the healthiest looking person in any room. Many who know him well say this is because of the near-perpetual smile he wears.
Skills:
Athletics: Duke has the endurance of a marathon runner and the general athleticism as a competitive gymnast. Without really intending to, he maintains this through random vigorous activities. The only truly consistent exercise he performs is running great distances and practicing Tai Chi, in which he is a true artist. These collective abilities can be summed up by the word average.
Smoke Hypnosis: Through patterned movements of a smoking stick, Duke can hypnotize a person. In order for this to occur people must spend at least thirty seconds concentrating on what Duke is doing. He can perform this by doing anything from spinning a simple stick of incense between his fingers to lighting the end of his bokkan on fire and performing sword forms. Once his audience is hypnotized, there are all sorts of possibilities. He has the potential to lead dreaming, influence thoughts and actions, and delve deep into the subconscious of anyone under his influence. Of course, hypnosis is no exact science, so it is impossible to say how much any given person will be influenced by Duke, or if he will indeed be able to put them to sleep. To restate that last sentence in other terms: this ability can only work on PC's with their OOC permission.
Emotion Radiation: Duke constantly feels the emotions of those around him emanating in waves. Particularly when he is around large groups of people, his own emotions can be influenced if many people are feeling the same way. In like form, when he feels emotions very powerfully, those around him can be influenced to feel the same way. Since Duke is a happy-go-lucky sort and cheerful all the time, most people within sensory distance of him (earshot, eyeshot,) experience an inexplicable lift in their mood.
Agility: Duke's agility, speed and reflexes are 1.25 that of a normal human. He is dextrous in all things from twirling a stick of incense to performing back handsprings.
Whittling/Carving: Another hobby Duke enjoys is whittling and carving artifacts from wood. Normally he will begin with a simple lump of timber and spend many days carving until it represents a beautiful piece of art.
Equipment:
Bokkan: A simple oak bokkan, Duke carries this strapped to his back.
Guitar: A guitar made from oak and plaited spidersilk strings, Duke also carries this with him wherever he goes, strapped to his back alongside the bokkan.
Iron folding knife: This simple short blade is used for whittling as well as other menial tasks.
Pipe: A 14" long pipe made from oak wood which Duke whittled himself. The stem curves slightly to a large bowl, and Duke carries this pipe everywhere with him, using it in conjunction with certain produce which he grows on his farm.
Clothes: After a few days of wear, Duke generally tosses his outfit and finds a new one. You never know what you might find him wearing.
Farm: Duke owns a one acre farm in the countryside near Radasanth. He grows a wide variety of plants, herbs, flowers and cacti.

Personalities:
Jack is the strong silent type, soft spoken but always adding positive energy to the group. Rosalie is the very embodiment of optimism, never allowing her spirits (or those of anyone around her) to be dull for a moment. Foley is the most exuberant of the four friends, like a live wire, always with a new idea for adventure. All three are absolute pacifists like Duke. Although Duke would never consider fighting anyone, should he do so, these three would not join him him battle, for like him they would never consider fighting anyone.
Appearances:
Jack's skin is black as night, the very same color as his hair. He is built powerfully and muscular, his hair in foot long dreadlocks. Rosalie is naturally pale skinned and as such cannot stand much sunlight, but healthy despite this. She is attractive with curves in the right places and a cute face marked by her wide blue eyes. Her hair is wavy to the point of curliness, bouncing in layers down to her shoulders. Foley is a true blond, although his hair is often dirty enough to not look it. He has a boyish face and body that hides true endurance, and a lively sparkle in his eyes that you can feel across the room. Like Duke, he is nearly always well tanned.

However, when together they possess one unique ability worth noting.
Tripartite Hypnosis Channeling: Whenever they are together and one of them sees Duke perform certain combinations of tai chi forms, The three fall into a state of shallow hypnosis. In this trance-like state they channel music from other universes and dimensions, playing and singing until the song is done.

When they fall into this state, the three will not stop playing and singing unless there is a dire reason.
Equipment:
Besides clothing, these three normally only carry a variety of instruments and whatever else might strike their fancy at the time.
History:
No one knows exactly how Duke, Jack, Rosalie and Foley came to be living together on the Kasseldown Farm. This recently struck Duke as odd and he is beginning casual inquiries into their history. His efforts are only scattered, however, for the matter does not seem exceptionaly important.
Normally the foursome work on the farm, but whenever possible they travel, meeting new people and making their way by performing in taverns, town halls, small concerts and wherever else people will pay to watch them play. They work as a band called Duke and the Tribals. The three NPC's are in now way related, but in the absence of other last names elected to call themselves Tribals, after the band name. They are known to stay in one location as long as they feel like it then leave on a whim, always remember to return anywhere they were well received. Together they strive to bring peace and happiness to all of Althanas.
Duke's history is being shaped, molded and remembered during his future adventures on Althanas. Also, when creating this thread I was so focused on the content I got the title wrong. I'd be much obliged if the title could be edited to say "When the moon is in the Seventh House"
