Darius The Ponderous
Knight of the Evergreens
Alignment: Neutral Good Pronouns: He/They Class: Artificer (Alchemist) I have known Lord Marcel Bora for all of my life. We were both raised as heirs to House Bora, with most of our younger years spent distrustful of one another. Although we never hated one another, petty squabbles and grudges would persist between the both of us. Eventually the marriage between our parents’ houses shattered, and with that shattering, my brother and I forged a lifelong friendship - one in which I am happy to call him my closest friend in all the realms. As for Lady Anna House, I have known of her since our family's time in the British Isles - although I regretfully only knew her through a shared rock climbing class and my brother. We did not speak much in the classes as I spoke mostly with Lady Sophie, but my friendship with my brother led to my learning of his affection for her. Although we would eventually find ourselves more acquainted with one another whilst visiting to court Lord Marcel some years ago, I would love to learn more about you in the years to come. It is with great pleasure that I may see my brother and Lady Anna find love and forge an unbreakable partnership under one house!

Alignment: Chaotic Good Pronouns: She/her Class: Barbarian I've known Anna as long as I've known the light of this world. The two are indistinguishable from eachother and have been equal partners in my growth as a person, a friend, and a sister. Marcel joined much later but he is the friend and brother that we had been saving a seat for all along, for he fits at our table so seamlessly, it must have been fate. Together we have shared new beginnings in Ohio and weathered the dark storms of loss and rough seas of grief. We have seen eachother succeed and fail countless times. There are few supports stronger in my life than the people I share a roof with, and I look forward to being a witness to their union.
Davyn the Goblin
The Court of the Evergreens
Alignment: True Good Pronouns: He/Him Class: Bard I met M at his birthday party in 2023, less than a month after Hannah and I started dating. I repeat, I met M at HIS birthday party. M is the kinda guy to trust his friends to the point that if they want to bring someone he's never met to his birthday, that probably means they're cool enough to be there. He made me feel immediately welcome in his life and I'm lucky to call him my friend. He's also one of the few people I can talk to about beer and comic books with, which is a plus.

Alignment: Neutral Good Pronouns: She/Her Class: Paladin Anna and I have been friends since our freshman year of college, and she once told me she hoped we would live near each other when we had kids, the biggest compliment I have ever received. Even though she abandoned New England to return to the midwest, I still love getting to see her. I am ALWAYS excited for an occasion to pull out my emergency pirate costume.

Alignment: Chaotic Neutral Pronouns: My Nouns are actually amateur :( Class: Bard "Smart. Funny. Roguishly handsome. Marriage material." These are probably just a few of the words that entered Marcel's mind when he first met me in 2019. What came afterward was 7 years of close, some might say intimate, friendship. Alas friendship was all that we were destined for, as our hearts settled in different places: his with his childhood friend Anna, mine with also his childhood friend, L. Now we come together once again, this time so I can stand several feet away while Marcel gets married.

The Court of the Evergreens
Alignment: Chaotic Neutral Pronouns: Whatever makes the Joke land Class: Rogue I don't remember meeting M. My earliest memories of him are watching Trollhunters in my room, taking a hard nap in my dorm with Hilda on the tiny TV, and introducing him to Ham in Destin Commons so that they would be friends and my evil plan to have all my friends be friends with each other would succeed. I took advantage of the fact he lived so close for those four years he was in Navarre and I was in Pensacola. To me, M is the kind of friend that you can't ever let go of, and I love every little thing about him. His laugh is contagious and makes you forget anything that was bothering you. He moves his hands a certain way when he's arguing with you about something (he's wrong btw). He is literally always down to do something spontaneous (like go hiking off trail and get lost for 3 hours). I see him in those rays of sunshine that peek through a dense treetop, in the little backyard birds that love to make noise in the morning, in the purple seashells that are hidden in the sand on the beach, in every Buffalo Wild Wings... M has become a core part of who I am as a person, you cannot know me without also knowing him. Quite literally because I cannot shut up about the people I care about. I have no words to express how excited I am to be a part of this stage of his life that is so fillled with love. Love you M
Jay The Virgo Lord
The Toadstool Court
Alignment: Neutral Good Pronouns: They/Them Class: Bard Way back in 7th grade, I met both Anna and Marcel. Everyday we’d all eat lunch together with all of our friends. Anna and I grew super close through this time. Actually, she is the one I attribute sparking my love for theater. For almost the rest of our adolescence we shared the theater with each other- from putting on a scene at our school’s Shakespeare festival to acting our hats off with a British amateur theater society together, and much more! Even after our moves away from England, we made trips to visit each other for our final year of high school and throughout college- even though she was all the way in Rhode Island and I in Iowa. We’ve been on so many adventures- our proms, seeing musicals on the west end, Taylor Swift’s Red tour in London, exploring Disneyland Paris, and throughout all of this she’s always been the perfect partner in crime. Anna is truly a very special person to me who deserves the world. No one could ever ask for a better friend than in Anna. Therefore I, the Virgo Lord, bequeath unto the lovely couple abundant healing, blessings, strength and protection everlasting.

Alignment: True Good Pronouns: He/They Class: Sorcerer I happened upon Lord Marcel in the hallowed halls of Riverview High School not long after our 16th summer. He was a rather mysterious figure then, having been newly inducted at that school. I was another new face on school grounds, so naturally, we became quick friends. We were also both what some would call “nerds.” The biggest sin against us being our involvement in a group game of Dungeons and Dragons that we partook in with some of our other “nerd” friends. As the Dungeon Master of this game I lead Marcel, who played as the minotaur barbarian, Jurrack. Together we had many adventures of fun, chaos, and buffoonery. Our times together since have been no different. I’ll spare the entire chronicle for another day. For now we’ll raise a glass to the betrothal of Anna and Marcel. For I am honored to be apart of their wedding party and I give them my best wishes!
Min The Mischievous
The Toadstool Court
Alignment: True Good Pronouns: They/Them Class: Ranger I met Anna the same way I met most of my close college friends: by arguing online. Our friend group kept strong during the height of the pandemic, and Anna and I became closer through parties and get-togethers. Even when she left for the midwest, we kept in contact, meeting up for key special events - most notably, the 2024 solar eclipse, and, of course, her wedding!

Alignment: Lawful Good Pronouns: She/her Class: Ranger I met Marcel quite late into high school, around junior or senior year. Time has blurred the details of that era, but has left intact a sense of joy and laughter with our friends. I remember being truly introduced to DnD together, late nights at the pool, and Marcel letting me braid his luscious, golden locks in class when I was bored (I sat behind him in AP gov). Sometime into college, I moved out of my parent’s house and Marcel was my first roommate. He was there when I first learned how to pay bills - and learned how much they cost. He invited me to visit Germany with him, a trip I will always cherish, and simultaneously set a high standard for all travel buddies in my life. He was there when my parents decided to sell the house I grew up in and I needed a friend to cry to. In the terrifying transition from teenager to responsible adult, Marcel has been there matching my steps and making sure I catch my breath. I cannot help but feel extremely lucky, and forever grateful, to call him my friend. I am so beyond excited for Marcel and Anna, two of the kindest people I’ve ever known, and am honored to witness this next stage of their lives.

Alignment: True Good Pronouns: He/Him Class: Bard or Barbarian, depending on the rhythm of the night Anna and I met in middle school, when she interrupted a conversation I was having with a fellow classmate. This circumstance is disputed and Anna is wrong. When she followed me to Nebraska, we were high school friends, and when she foolishly moved back to Nebraska after college we evolved into Adult Friends. One might even consider us homies. Though she’s since moved to Ohio, what I can only assume is one of the circles of hell, I relish any opportunity to see her again. Who knows, maybe one day I’ll finally join her commune.

The Court of the Evergreens
Alignment: Chaotic Good Pronouns: She/ Her Class: Druid I met M through my best friend L. While we didn't really become friends until late 2019, I have vivid memory of L showing me a dragon head with swords decoration that he had gotten for them and I immediately thought M must be pretty cool (pretty sure we were all in highschool at this point). I really got to know M when he moved up to Navarre and we spent endless night's gaming, having seasonal parties, and playing D&D. Now that I've had the pleasure of knowing M for 5 years I know that M is cool but he's also compassionate, considerate, hilarious, and truly so kind. I'm so glad to call M my friend and so excited to be a part of his and Anna's wedding.

Alignment: Chaotic Neutral Pronouns: They/Them Class: Artificer I've known Anna since college, when she reached out to compliment how I argue with people on the internet. We stayed great friends through the pandemic and afterwards, and despite our fundamental differences (I will never leave New England), she's never going to get rid of me. Looking forward to helping her wedding be memorable and interesting!
