Eda Oweland
Age: 124
Race: Human
Allegiance: Golgari
Occupation: Mayor of the Shademurk
Eda has spent most of her life out on the rotfarms, working herself as hard as any of the farmers in order to increase the productivity of the land. Once her hair gained a respectable grey colour and her skin took on the brown/grey hue that one gets from working the rotfarms, she ran for mayor.
The people love her honesty and direct approach to things, but tend to be wary of her sharp tongue.
Eda has a small group of Kraul mercenaries that assist the Boros in maintaining the peace.
As a side-venture, Eda also owns the Madam's Murkfish, one of the few places that prepares the local delicacy to high standards.
She has a friendly rival in Gellan Primeground (Orzhov).
Gellan Primeground
Age: 140
Race: Human
Allegiance: Orzhov
Occupation: Merchant
Gellan is a merchant born and bred, his family's business provides most of the textiles used in and around Shademurk. Many of the locals enjoy his presence not only because of his jovial air and delightful conversation he makes, but also because he throws the most amazing parties.
He is also the Orzhovian representative when it comes to religious matters, providing funds for the local temple and claiming taxes for the Syndicate.
Gellan has a renowned chef, a beautiful mansion and a lot of friends. He employs both local workers and thrulls.
The main place to buy his wares is Primeground's Clothes, but one can usually find them in stock at other places as well.
Gellan is said to have wanted to become mayor, but decided not to run against Eda Oweland.
Eliander Fireborn
Age: 207
Race: Dragonborn
Allegiance: Boros
Occupation: Captain of the Guard
In the his younger days, Eliander was a front-line combat specialist. Promotion after promotion saw him attain the rank of Commander-General. On his own request, he was posted out in the Rubblebelt to track down dangerous criminals and fight rampaging monsters for over a century, but he eventually was forced to retire from that posting after losing a leg. His reputation being such, he was brought in to Shademurk as captain of the guard and has acquited himself well for over fifty years now.
He owns a little library that accumulated over the years and spends his time off learning new languages, collecting books and not involving himself with local politics, though he thinks the Mizzium mines are a good way to diversify the income of the town.
Manistrad Copperhead
Age: 45
Race: Goblin
Allegiance: Izzet
Occupation: Senior Mining Researcher, Shademurk Branch
Manistrad used to be a guard at the Laboratory of Plasmo-Dermatology, trained for both combat and research, she proved herself at a young age to be better than her kin and was granted an audience with the Firemind himself after suggesting an improvement to the Nano-grafting procedure.
Within a few weeks, she found herself assigned to the new Mizzium Mine in the vicinity of Shademurk, where she has been working and gathering raw Mizzium ore for nearly ten years now.
Manistrad is said to be an indiscriminate employer, going so far as to employ faeries. She gets results though, so slowly but surely, she is building a trading company under her own name, including a fleet of cargo airships designed by herself, the Copperhead Bugs.
Thihm
Age: 34
Race: Minotaur
Allegiance: Boros
Occupation: Barbarian
Not all bull are made the same way, and Thihm has always been eyed a little askew by the others in the herd. He discovered a fondness for the human tradition of inking the skin, so he decided to emulate the others and put a tattoo on his shoulder.
While is eccentricity might be off-putting to those who are new to him, he will try and befriend almost anyone, frequently chipping in to pay for pot and pint at a local alehouse.
Wields two axes in combat.
Lisanne
Age: 45
Race: Human
Allegiance: Boros
Occupation: Sergeant
Lisanne has been with the legion since she graduated. She has, however, only received dull postings due to some issues her family had with a local captain. Because of this, she turned to drinking whenever she could get away with it. This had a rather bad effect on her coinpurse and led to a career in creative solutions to get the alcohol while still adhering strictly to the letter of the law.
Lisanne's greatest assets are an ability to discover which way the wind of fortune blows and a keen ear in local taverns, which all seem to have a natural fondness of the woman before long.

Ojay Jay
Age: 25
Race: Goblin
Allegiance: Money
Occupation: Entrepreneur
Ojay, son of Ijay, son of Ejay, is a third generation moneyhunter. He will try his hand at odd jobs just because they might bring in a profit. His goal in life, apart from acquiring as much gold as he can get his hands on, appears to be starting an orange farm, due to his like of citrus fruits. He has also been experimenting with accessories crafted from used products, but thus far has not seen a significant return on that investment.
Owns his own horse and cart, various costumes and enjoys hanging out in the Wicker Goat.
Ojay is lactose intolerant, but probably unaware of it.
Kreb Schenker
Age: 98
Race: Half-elf
Allegiance: Nominally Orzhov
Occupation: Barkeeper
Mister Schenker runs the Empty Net, a low-repute establishment where beverages are served and needs are serviced. Though he thinks of himself as glib and sly, most of those he would call regulars are well on to his schemes. Still, the beer he serves is good and the rates are low.
As an added service, Kreb also collects tithes for the local church, though he as oft forgets to donate to the poor as he remembers.
(Old) Foghorn
Age: 214
Race: Minotaur
Allegiance: Gruul
Occupation: taster of beverages

Firebelly & Ewolk
Age: uncertain
Race: Viashino
Allegiance: Unaligned
Occupation: Ex-diplomats
Trapped as they were sent out by their Queen to foster trade with the people city, Firebelly and Ewolk are certain their death awaits them if they ever return to the Burrows.
