Æterna, Inc. Corporation A biotech firm working on the cutting edge of genetic research.  Home office is in downtown Newford, with research branches in Chicago, the South Keys, and Wales.
Aidan (Solimond) His crystal sword was initially a mark of interest for Charlie.  Despite several of the pooka's (Anton) pranks, Aidan and Charlie grew to become friends.  He chased the pooka throughout the freehold, to slay him for the Shadow Court bounty.  He was believed slain after immersion into the underground lake in the second level of the freehold, and his sword Dawnfire was given to Randy by the Ondine, Kethbach.  He returned, very much alive, to Newford with Suramon.  He left her service only recently, siding with Keivhyn to form the Triple Alliance with Elek and Ougha'schaka.
Alashandra (Unknown) Mentioned by Bavda as one not to be trusted, even by fellow Naraka.  Alashandra serves her own ends, and Bavda is not entirely sure that Alashandra has not forsaken Kali entirely for something even darker.  That darker service is to Ougha'schaka, a legendary male leader of the Naraka, woken from sleep by the White Dream to invade Concordia's shores.  She functions as his assessor of tactics and his emissary to the other leaders of the Triple Alliance.

Lord Augwyr ap'Beriond na'Eilobar

(Auggie)

 (Seelie Sidhe)

(House Gwydion)

 Son of Lord Beriand.  Played with Anton at Court during their reprimand.  He watched the party closely and when Randy passes out and received his visions.  His voice is prophesied through Charlie during their stay at High Castle.  He has a profound  interest in Henna, a tendency towards cryptic language, and a deep love for his people.  He has recently begun a resistance movement to regain his throne.  His recent speech amongst the Newcomers drew  powerful support, even as an elite squad of commandos ambushed his former home in his name.  That said, his true test are the battles to come...and the prophesies of Samhain's fulfillment.
Azag (Fir Bholg) A Fir-bholg leader, apparently battling Elek, a Fuath.  Originally from the Splinterspeak Mountains in the Far Dreaming.  Their battles have spilled over into the Waking World.  Azag has a 'box' given to him by the 'witches,' which the Naraka are unpleased about. There has also been some talk of the 'Stone,' now known to be the Nemesis Stone, held by Elek.  His mate, Leta, guards his lands in his absence.
Babbitt, Phillip (Mortal) Older brother to Charlie.  When their parents died, Phillip took Charlie under his wing and raised him as his own.  Now 29, he's feeling the weight of those missing years.  Charlie's disappearance has only underscored the fact that he feels its time to he lived his own life.  His concern grew however, as the weeks went on.  He put out several missing person reports on Charlie and paid the rent on Charlie's apartment.  His patience, however, has run out.  He has refused recent payment, and Charlie's last calls were not answered.
Balm, Heather
Bartholomew (Unknown) A tall gaunt enigmatic man who warned Rina regarding Carra's intent.  Recently, he cautioned Anton to be wary of Carra, and seems obsessed with Anton's safety regarding her.  Several attempts to identify his nature have been met with frustration.  Reemerged from hiding and shunned by the Varich, he finds himself at the end of a very frayed rope.  Jacob discovered his love for Eowin, and his fear that his own kind will come for him to exact retribution.  Bart  also seems to be socially queasy around Richard and Kathryn.
Bavda Naraka The apparent second in command of the Naraka clan that dwells on the borders of Azag's holdings in the Splinterspeaks.  She guided the party back into the Source of All Things.  Why she remains is unknown, but it is doubtful she lacks a plan.  She has apparently joined Auggie's forces, despite the rest of her clan remaining back in the Dreaming.

(House Gwydion)

(Deceased)

Bix (Chimera) A larger than life dragonfly, spawned of Anton Sullivan's Chrysalis.  Ever buzzing around him, he is often forgotten by his compatriots.  But his love for his benefactor knows no bounds, and his talents often surprise his friends.
Capercorn, Jilly (Unknown)

(House Eiluned)

(Deceased)

 A human that can, for some reason, see into the Dreaming.  A close friend of both Lorio and Sophie, she worked as a waitress at The Scarlet Letter.  Several cantrips implied she was immediate danger upon the parties return to Newford.  She died during the Samhain revels, at the hands of Dærath.
Carra (Sidhe)

(House Fiona)

 Of House Fiona, the red-headed Carra first met the party upon their return to the Court of Newford.  Elaborately dressed in a peacock dress and wearing a silver circlet, her rank seems rather high.  She had an interest in Rina, an alliance with Eowin, and antipathy towards Bartholomew.  She was hospitalized and shared a room with Izzy after the Conflagration.  She has been released, and is shocked to learn that Izzy has greater status than she amongst the New Sidhe's court.  Her fury tried to block Anton, Jacob, and Joram's escape with Eowin's unconscious body, but Marina of Beacon Hills intervened...for a future price.  Hell hath no fury...
Cavall (Dog) Once the loyal dog of David Ardry, Cavall was one of his Eyes, dispatched to monitor High Castle.  He vanished from that area before the Restoration, and recently returned severely wounded to aid in the battles against the Soul Eater infestation in the Tombs' lower levels.  He was last seen with the "human Bai'Dala
Cerruci, Anthony

He has recently been transformed by the Sphere of Khem-al-Khat. 
Childs, Bethany (Sidhe)

(House Varich)

 While not entirely the same in function as Ishmael, her status in Geryc's court is similar to that of Ishmael's (in his prime) in the court of Eilobar.  Rather than be called "Seeker," Bethany is her Duke's "Silence."  The ominous tone may be intentional--but it is also accurate.  She has already developed a hatred for Bai'Dala and Nathan.
Cole, Hunter (Mortal) Owner of Gypsy Records, and fiancé of Ellie.
Copley, Isabelle (Unknown) A young fae woman whose kith is unknown.  She frequented the Scarlet Letter and was followed by a gaggle of young Wilders, including Tony.  Commonly called "Izzy." Her ties to Tony, and others, have yet to be fully explored.  Believed to be slain in an attempt to kill Randy at Lord Jared ap'Eiluned's home.  Her body was dumped outside Auggie's window in the Varich's freehold, but the body was a Metamorphed Shadow Court assassin.  Izzy herself fled Geryc's side and has now allied herself with Elek, functioning for him in the same capacity Alashandra does for her master.
Corin (Unknown) An advisor to Elek, his kith is unknown.  Though Elek and his Fuath are feral, almost rabid, it was the calm and coldness of Corin that seemed perhaps most menacing during the rescue of Toby, Ma Woods, and Marie Starr.   He seemed furious when Elek allowed Izzy to live, much less serve him.  He may well be the true force behind Elek's madness.
Cort, Dale
Dærath Acheri A form carved of utter darknes, with red furnaces for eyes.  He stands eight feet tall, and is the nightmare the nightmares tell to each other, huddled about their fires on the Kureksarra plains.  Heslyn has seen him watching Elek's troupes, and Bavda fears her influence on Azag and Leta, as well as her own kind.  She views him as the most dangerous thing recently born of the Dreaming.  He has just been spotted outside the Time-Sphere of the school.
Davien (Satyr) A childling who stands over 7' tall, he was one of the guards who helped Charlie aid the wounded during the Conflagration. He was seen plotting via the Ulunsuti with Suramon and her associates. He also has been spotted within the Varich-occupied ducal freehold.

Edgar
Edward (Nocker) A young wilder, he has been dispatched by Eowin to the workshop of Chaos Reach to help Jacob build weapons.  Jacob's first impression was that he was a spy.  Now known to be amongst the Oathsworn.
Elek Fuath Initially a leader of a small pack of Fuath in the Darkwood, Elek fled one of his many battles with the Kithain remnants dwelling in the nearby grasslands and entered the Forest of Lies.  Near its heart, he discovered the Nemesis Stone.  Now he controls a vast invasion force, but his sanity is near the breaking point.
Embry, Nathan (Ghille Dhu) A foreigner from Wales, Nathan arrived to complete his dual degrees at the University.  Gwilym was shocked to see him at Samhain, and others were shocked still when he spoke the Prophecy of the Falcon's Child.  His past, confessed to Auggie, placed him as point man for the guerilla attack on Chaos Reach.  He has been missing since purportedly aiding an entranced Kenneth Vaughn.
Eowin (Sidhe)

(Deceased)

 His House affiliation is unknown and he appeared at the right side of the former Duke during Court.   This seemed to bother no one but Joram whose eyes caught a dark fire upon seeing him.  Rumor has placed him earlier at Cær Pallisades.  The party had a simultaneous premonition to not trust him.  He vanished during Samhain, but has returned as an apparent ally to the New Sidhe.  Jacob is still bound by oath and enchantment to his will.  Recently, Jacob has become aware of factions unpleased with Eowin, and sided with the brothers Sullivan to do him in. 
Etoile, Sophie (Sidhe)

(House Eiluned)

 Of moderate rank amongst House Eiluned, Sophie was a friend of Lorio and Jilly's.  After the confrontation with the Man in White, she took  the party through a secret chamber and used her Ladder to take them to safety.  She vowed to report these affairs to the Duke and see justice done at all costs.  She was assisting Lord Jared in the restoration of the Book.  Her freehold has been destroyed and her dead body found stabbed multiple times, causing Charlie to swear revenge.

Gen Corp. Corporation A small research affiliate is found in Nabiscoding.
Geryc, Duke of Chaos Reach (Sidhe)

(House Varich)

 Leader of the New Sidhe, most of whom share his house affiliation.  He has rechristened the ruined freehold Chaos Reach, and has begun reconstruction.  His plans for the area are unknown, but the Oath the commoners are strongly encouraged to take does not bode well.
Goon Bygone King of the Tombs, Goon is the only known member of his kind.  He serves the world above as an elderly folklorist's serving man, but below the surface of the city the rest of the bygones and smaller ephemera recognize the strength of will that has kept him alive now for three centuries.  He is the possessor of the Stone Drum.
Grahame (Knocker) A childing that proved to be Jacob's staunchest companion...until he and his workshop vanished the day of Samhain.  Jacob saw him in the cockpit of the ornithopter that crashed into the freehold, before the corpse dissipated into mist.  Now known to be the leader of the Commoner Army.
Green Man Gallery, The (Freehold) Located in the area of University of Newford, it frequently supports showings by up-and-coming artists.
Grodin, Rachel Eshu

Guile, Duke (Sidhe)

(House Eiluned)

 Sometimes dubbed 'The Scarlet Sorcerer,' his reputation precedes him.  Hailed by many to be one of the most potent masters of Glamour and Gremayre living, he has turned his attention to the curious affairs of the Kitchen and Jacob's plight.  His interest in Jacob's brand unnerves the nocker, due to Anton's note of warning.  He has pledged to help the party decipher their visions, as well as purge Charlie of any taint with which Suramon may have infected him. He also has taught Anton the arts of Illusion and Gremayre, and is the guardian of the recovered Artifacts.  His dislike for Marine of Beacon Hills is obvious.
Gwilym, Seneschal (Boggan)

(House Gwydion)

 A member of House Gwydion, he is the Seneschal of Gwynedd, and is actively seeking the membership of House Gwydion for a High King to rule their ancestral lands from the Ivy Throne.  He has fled to Concordia to meet with rulers of Gwydion strongholds to test their worth.  He has sworn Charlie to protect him during the strange times he finds himself living in.  That Oath is now considered broken, but may yet be repaired.  Following Willamina's death, Gwilym approach Queen Mary-Elizabeth and retained troupes for securing Newford--as well as a commission for Charlie.  Due to his infection by a deadly chimerical plague, he has only but several more days to live--and so he must complete his own quest in just a few short days.

Ishmael (Eshu)

(Clan Jolibar)

 His official title was Seeker, and was one of the Duke's most trusted operatives.  The party was surprised not to see him up on the dais with Eilobar upon their return.  He vanished to a place of safety, but not before bestowing Ellylw's Book to Henna and keys to dangerous secrets to others.  He has returned recently, pledging his support to back Auggie in his plans for a Resistance, as well as to help the Newcomers.  He swore an official Oath of Fealty to the young Gwydion duke, which set off a string of terrible visions.  He also was the former guardian of the Orb of Khem-al-Khat, now bound to Randy.

 Highest ranking member of House Eiluned in Newford.  He was given the task of restoring the Book, along with Sophie, and it is from his household that it was stolen.  He was questioned by Eowin regarding the theft.  He was Charlie's mentor upon his Chrysalis.  He was announced by Sophie's spirit as one of the only people in Newford they could trust.  He took inAuggie and his allies and allowed his home in Nabiscoding to be the duke's center of operations for some time to come. He has taken an interest in Steve's strangely cool demeanor, and an instant disinterest in a certain arrogant satyr.  But all things change, and he has now agreed to tutor Randy for his future in politics. 
Jessamy, Princess (Sidhe)

(House Ailil)

 Despite her relation to Yrtalien, Princess Jessamy of House Ailil is greatly loved and respected by those who encounter her.  She was recently chosen as the Green Child in a celebration of the Greening in the Kingdom of Willows.  She was a great help in aiding the wounded after the collapse of Amber Moon, and her attention to Auggie's personage was noted by many...including Henna.  She has pledged not only her personal assistance, but that of her House, to Auggie's cause.

 Anton's fae brother, and a deadly assassin.  His slaying of Ronnie put him at odds with some, but none can doubt the fervor he has for his causes, namely saving his brother from himself and destroying Eowin.  Only recently was it revealed that Voices talk to him, guiding him to the slaughter of those infested with Soul Eater larvae.  Who those voices are, and what future remains for the vision-haunted trickster remains to be seen.

Kelledy, Cerin and Merin (Sidhe)

(House Beaumayn)

 Moderately famous period musicians, currently on staff at Newford University.  They are aiding the relocation efforts in the tombs, and seem to have become the de facto leaders of the newcomers that reside in the Tombs.  The older denizens, curiously, do not seem put out at all...
Killer, The (Unknown) A man's shape, but with curious silvery reflective items in his hands.  The party observes him slaying the Sea Bishop on the beach at Sleeping Bear Dunes, but is unaware of what they are witnessing unti lit is too late.  The killer seemed to vanish from view.  Now known to be a host to the Souleater, it's identity was never found out.  Some, hearing the party's exploits and the death of Anne, speculate that it was Miss Gwish herself who slayed the Emissary.
Kimball, Jimmy
Kurtz, Anna (Unknown) Youngest of the Kurtz children and little sister to Randy, she has fallen in a dangerous element at High School.  She seems to have taken her brother's disappearance in stride.  In fact, she seems to have almost expected it.  She has revealed she is aware of Randy's fae nature...and is not pleased.  Neither is her supposed boyfriend, Brock.  She was last seen unconscious, bleeding onto the cobblestone alleys of Newford's commerical district outside the Scarlet Letter.

High Lady Suramon (Sidhe)

 Beautiful and cold, she surrounded herself with attendants and pages, having arrived unannounced in High Castle several weeks earlier.  What her motives are few suspect, and fewer still are correct.  Her house affiliation is unknown.  She ripped the doings of the party from the mind of Charlie.  She kidnapped him and did things unknown to him while unconscious, and has been spotted at Samhain and elsewhere.  Sabrina's pawn, she has launched her own agendas to her own detriment.  Now, with the loss of her Solimond and Thallain troops, she hides in the shadows, waiting.  But her time grows near.  Vengenace shall be hers, on the last day.

Thorvald, Dana (Sluagh)

(House Varich)

 A medical examiner fresh from UofN's medical school, she works her craft also for the sake of Geryc's Varich insurgency.  Her ability to work with the dead is well established.  Initially fooled,  she soon realizes Izzy's corpse is not the real thing.  Her malicious streak is matched only by her rampant sadism.

 A wealthy and powerful Fiona noble from France, in obvious collusion with Lady Carra.  He was slain in the kidnapping of Eowin.
Tobias (Seelie Pooka) 

(House Kyanor)

 Charlie found this lovable pooka during his terrifying ordeal in Cold Fort.  He has since taken Tobias under his wing.  Since the lad has no family of his own in the wake of the tragedy, Charlie seems more and more to look at him as if it were his own son.  He recently has fled Newford with Ma Woods and Marie Starr, only to be kidnapped by Elek's forces.  Toby, before passing out due to the Gate's collapse, claimed Charlie had died.  Now being watched over by Tony and Randy, principally, Toby was ennobled on Samhain into House Kyanor by Tony.
Tomas, Kalana (Eshu) The most popular Kithain travel author in Concordia, her books are well known for their talent at pinpointing the trendiest clubs and restaurants as well as the hidden wonders and special places.  The Masque in Newford gathered her attention, and she made her attendance to the fete the centerpiece for her book on the city.  Her Guide to Holidays in Concordia function as a propaganda piece, lambasting the newly returned Sidhe and praising Auggie and his allies highly.

Turjin, Adalyr (Unknown) Adalyr first appeared in High Castle, where he banished the Blight as it approached the ancient freehold.  He also aided Lorio in returning Tamlin from his glade, and aided Tamlin in sending the party back to Newford.  He reappeared, now in Newford's Tombs district.  He looks more serious now, and he shines with a bright aura of Purpose.  He is advising Lenore.

(House Dougal)

(Deceased)

 A frequent attendant at Queen Mary-Elizabeth's court, she is making a circuit of the Duchies of the Kingdom of Grass.  She came to Newford with Charlie and Tobias, and while she is taking notes for her Queen, she found great sympathy welling up in her for the plight of these poor defenseless commoners.  She was slain trying to report to Mary-Elizabeth the goings-on in Newford, but not before she could pass the queen's seneschal a package.  She was slain by a fleeing Soul-Eater and her body found by Charlie.
Willow (Satyr)

 First appeared in the court of the Duke as he passed judgement on Charlie and the party.  She slipped Anton a note telling about the party to go to Sleeping Bear Dunes, vanishing later into a black limousine in the financial district.  She seemed immune to the banality of that area.  An apparent friend of Tony's, she introduced him to Izzy. She died in the Conflagration.
Woods, Ma (Grump Troll) Henna's mentor and ally, currently residing in and Loremistress of Novi.  She has recently come to Newford to fetch Marie Starr home, converse with Henna about the strange goings on, and has taken Tobias with them to keep him safe from what is to come. She was kidnapped alongside Henna's Mother and Tobias.  Now back in Novi, she reports all the fae but she are gone, and she still knows not why, except the aura of fear and menace has grown.
Wyddrhien (Eshu) A young Wilder who appears in town on Hell Night.  He has approached Anton more than once, and seems almost smitten with him.   He has recently been spotted in the Scarlet Letter, and was a surprising addition to the crack elite team sent to infiltrate Chaos Reach by Auggie.  Now revealed to be Anton's Swordbrother in House Kyanor, as well as second in command of the Commoner Army.

Yrilan, Knight of Stars (Sidhe) Knight of an Unknown House, he aided the stranger in rescuing Rina.  He overheard Joram and Anton's secret at Samhain, and was interested in Henna as well.  He has been friendly to Jacob since the New Sidhe took the freehold.  He has openly laid bare his desire to aid Jacob and the Sullivan Brothers in their attempts to slay Eowin, and aided in that endeavour to its successful conclusion.  Since then, he has not been seen.  His causes are his own.
Yrtalien, Prince. (Unseelie Sidhe)

(House Ailil)
