Philomel

Currently trying to balance life as head of the Gilded Lily and also as a mother. Is finding it difficult, mostly because she has had her morals challenged recently when she met the Huntsman. She had to question whether her problem with science, which she has always considered an abhorrence and an attempt to replicate the power of the gods without their blessing, is well-founded or not. She is now having new experiences, including the reuniting with her old friend Shinsou.

Stare

Currently part the way through the 'Vindrexis' storyline. Her employer Vitruvion (who is also her master and her god trapped in a human form but nobody knows he is a god and they can't tell anyone) has a half brother who has come to Althanas from the planet they are both from, intent on destroying Vitruvion's world. This brother (Vindrexis) has brought back Stare's own brother as an undead (Avin) and Stare was just killed by him. Avin has no memory of his life. Stare has now discovered she is immortal, never aging and literally woke up one morning with wings. She is currently in Radasanth after various reunions - first with her old friend Nosdyn with whom she did some piracy to save a ship from Vindrexis' plans, and then they had a date. Second, with Raevin, her co-worker who has lost his leg in another attack by Vindrexis. Thirdly, with Nevin and his partner Eteri.

Vaeron

Is currently having adventures with the elf prince Elthas. Between helping this guy out and helping Philomel deal with life.

Celandine

Recently has recovered from being turned to stone. Is now rapidly maturing and learning new things. Is worrying her parents a little, including Vaeron who said he'd never take an interest in her...

Avin

Stare's brother, recently faced with the fact there may be more reason why he was brought back than just because Vindrexis admired his race. Is currently wandering the Tular Plains, confused and lost and trying to remember his life, but proud of the fact he made Beinost almost starve. Almost. Is currently heading towards a town where a certain other person is going...

Vixen

Another half sibling to Vitruvion, she has just recently escaped three thousand years and more of imprisonment and slavery in Hernsford, a slave port. She has come to the Tular Plains to start her life again, and met with a man called Hunter, who is helping her learn the ways of the world. She feels naïve but is going to the same town. Note: she actually originally came to Althanas as guardians of the kenkus, hence them doing unusually well as a lost race who had no memory before they arrived...
