Esteem ∥ They/Them

❮⬩  Shadow of the Other ⬩❯

Hair: Black Brown, Black Highlights
Eyes: Yellow
Skin: Tan, Freckled, Scarred

Born of a desperate Dark Knight's wish to survive - they initially failed, though in a turn of events, they became attached to Cinnamon acting as their Darkside - and in doing so, indirectly saved the Dark Knight who created them. After the realization that the Warrior of Light, Cinnamon, never actually formed their Darkside, Anguish Esteem was born anew.

Shadow Walker: Able to manifest in shadows. Appearance (if actually perceived) depends on the viewer's perception of them.

Living Dead: Prevents being knocked out or dying by channeling the abyss. Only properly activated if they've received an otherwise fatal blow. Their attacks will sap their enemy's lifeforce and heal them.
When their other self uses it, it's a coin toss between Esteem or Fray taking control.

Cure: Heals the target using their own aether.

Fray took Ompagne's passing the worst - it was only natural considering Ompagne took him in, cared for him, and taught him the ways of the Dark Knight. Fray refused to even enter his Master's bedroom for a week - and after that, refusing to move into it proper.

Jaq Quigley ∥ Any Pronouns

❮⬩  Stargazer ⬩❯

Hair: Black, White Highlights
Eyes: Brown
Skin: Pale

A retired Warrior of Light - Jaq Quigley spends his days with his wife, content with the hand he played in saving the world... for now.

The Echo: Allows him to see visions of the past, whether he likes it or not. Often hides the fact he experiences these.
Natural Regen [from Red Rot]: Regenerates health regardless of status. Increased regeneration when Well Fed.
Resilience: Takes less damage.

Bloodwhetting: Allows her to reduce damage taken for 8 seconds, restoring their health with every attack, further reducing damage taken for 4 seconds, and granting him a shield for 20 seconds..
Caustic Bite: Inflicts poison on the target for a duration of 30 seconds. If left unchecked (ie: not removed via Esuna or a potion), it will possibly further deteriorate into Red Rot.
   a. Red Rot   “Red Rot is classified as a unique disease in which the origins are a mystery. Common side effects include but are not limited to: increased health regeneration, increased appetite, changing of the body, supernatural strength. It is contagious - most commonly passed through contact with blood of an afflicted creature.”
Inner Release: Channels the Red Rot, leaping at the target and rendering them unable to move for 5 seconds. The target's damage taken is increased, and with every attack a chance of the Red Rot infecting the target increases.
   b. Red Rot   “Red Rot's theorized origins are from another star entirely, or the Void. Scholars have carefully deduced that the Red Rot only afflicts organic material, including but not limited to flesh. There is very limited research on the effects of the Red Rot on sentient beings. When animals are infected by it, they either act normally under most conditions, or erratically, if in the presence of another afflicted with the disease.”

Valentine Xochitl ∥ She/Her

❮⬩  Mother of Light ⬩❯

❮⬩  Mother of Light ⬩❯

Hair: Blonde
Eyes: Blue

Hailing from a nomadic tribe of the Steppe - Daisy left her homeland in search of love and profit - and she achieved the former when (literally) running into a frazzled Miqo'te lady, helping her up by accidentally picking her whole self up. She and Valentine had a child, and married soon after.

Haurchefant de Fortemps ∥ He/Him

❮⬩  of the Silver Fuller ⬩❯

Hair: Silver
Eyes: Blue
Skin: Pale

Born a bastard son to Edmont de Fortemps and a lowborn mother - Haurchefant faced scrutiny for the blood that ran through his veins. Despite this, he aspired to become a true knight - to live to serve. He met his demise protecting the Warriors of Light - and one of the selfsame Warriors of Light brought him back through powerful forbidden magicks.

Cinnamon Xochitl [Crush]
A'kit Tasui [Friend]
Edmont de Fortemps [Father] ➔
Haurchefant cherishes his father dearly - who held him to the same expectations as his highborn sons. Both knew they were powerless to do more with the terms of his birth, Haurchefant often being excluded from events concerning the High Houses. Now, Edmont is completely unaware of his son's return - as Haurchefant feels it would do more harm than good.
Artoirel de Fortemps [Brother] ➔
Despite being half-related by blood - the two never got along swimmingly, with Artoirel looking down on Haurchefant for being a bastard son, and Haurchefant wishing Artoirel would do more for himself. After Haurchefant's passing, Artoirel realized how horrible he was to his brother - as it too late to try and do better with him - he decided to do so in his name. Haurchefant hasn't spoken to him, since he feels it would sully the House's reputation.
Emmanellain de Fortemps [Brother] ➔
The two did not really get along or clash much - though despite this, Haurchefant saved him in what was to be a low-risk mission assigned to the slacking Emmanellain, the former earning a token of respect from the latter. When Haurchefant passed, Emmanellain mourned him quietly. The two have not spoken since Haurchefant's return, as rumors of necromancy would bring their noble House down.
Fray Myste [Friend]

Sidurgu  Orl  ∥ He/Him

❮⬩  of the Obsidian Heart ⬩❯

Hair: White
Eyes: Teal
Skin: White

Formerly from Othard - his parents were slaughtered at the age of eleven summers when the family moved to the green plains of Coerthas. Ever since, he sought revenge - taken in by his master, Ompagne, and taught in the ways of the Dark Knight.

Subdued Darkside: Darkside is subdued... for now.
Dark Arts: Resistant to dark-aspected magic.

Power Slash: Inflicts a heavy slash, followed by a burst of dark-aspected damage.
Spinning Slash: When executed after Hard Slash, inflicts great damage.
Survival: Prevents being knocked out or dying by channeling the abyss. Only properly activated if he has received an otherwise fatal blow. His attacks will sap his enemy's lifeforce and heal him.

Fray Myste [Brother]
Rielle [Niece]
Ompagne Deepblack [Master] ➔
Sidurgu misses his Master every day - doubly so when Fray left him and Rielle, causing the Au Ra to double down on deciphering the meaning of the riddle Ompagne gave the two boys.

Rielle  de Caulignont  ∥ She/Her

❮⬩  the Voiceless ⬩❯

Hair: Blonde
Eyes: Blue
Skin: Pale

All but orphaned, Rielle sought safety and succor from Fray and Sidurgu - who both took her in to protect her from the Temple Knights that were after her for some unknown reason. She currently lives with Fray and Cinnamon, though she used to live with Sidurgu when Fray had died.

Hair: Blue

Myste is the accidental creation of Cinnamon Xochitl and Fray Myste - their deepest desires and guilt given the form of a child. The two continue to look after the ephemeral child, who seems a bit confused of his identity.

Born to Cinnamon Xochitl and Fray Myste, Poppy was welcomed to the world quite recently. They seem to have taken after their Vieran parent in terms of racial features, and their Midlander father in terms of appearance.

Phosphorous Lightborne ∥ They/Them ...formerly Cinnamon Xochitl

❮⬩  Lightwarden ⬩❯

Hair: White
Eyes: White, Glowing
Skin: White, Glowing Freckles, Golden Scars

A clone of Cinnamon Xochitl at the peak of their Light corruption - Phosphorous was meant to bring about the Flood should      fail to spur the Warrior of Darkness's transformation. After      was killed, Phosphorous ended up in the Source somehow, alongside A'non Lux.

Cinnamon Xochitl [Origin]
Fray Myste [Ex-Friend]
A'non Lux [Best Friend] ➔
The clone of A'kit Tasui, created at the same time as them - they bonded with him almost immediately, moreso at the mistreatment the two faced as they were "disposable". They love him more than everyone else.

Elilwyb Helblaetwyn ∥ She/They

❮⬩  Seeker of Truth ⬩❯

Hair: Black
Eyes: Blue, Grey
Skin: White

Due to her mixed heritage, ending up in Ishgard was one of the more regrettable decisions she made - joining the Temple Knights to secure a wage and meals, her regret doubled with the poor treatment she received. Recently, she has started seeing a Miqo'te woman named Khol, having formally quit the Temple Knights to better protect her would-be mentor Fray from further harassment.

Khol Tasui [Girlfriend] ➔
Khol Tasui is the mother of A'kit Tasui - a Miqo'te Keeper of the Moon who fled from her clan because of the arcane magicks she wielded. She married and had a child with A'nhul Tia - a Seeker of the Sun, though her relationship with him is strained at best.

Cinnamon Xochitl [Stranger] ➔
Elilwyb has only met Cinnamon once - in a fit of derangement, she bade them to behead her with the sword she saw on their back. Confused, they understandably did not do so and redirected her elsewhere.

Varya Graves ∥ He/Him

❮⬩  the Returned ⬩❯

Hair: White
Eyes: Cyan
Skin: White, Bite Scar on Throat

Cursed to be possessed by a particularly strong urge to devour a certain Warrior of Light, Varya spent the better of his past three years trying to do so as a part of the Temple Knights - and ultimately failing at the hands of A'kit Tasui's voidsent Avatar. Now, Varya spends his days remembering and repenting. He aided his former target in surviving their trial - or at the very least, making it somewhat feasible for help to arrive.

Zero ∥ They/Them

❮⬩  Voidbound ⬩❯

Hair: Brown, Blue-Grey
Eyes: Silver
Skin: White

Hailing from the Thirteenth - long before it fell. Born on the cusp of Darkness, they only half-turned, however, which led to them becoming one of the last Memoriates to live. For a time, they were forced to serve as Zenos's Avatar - until his timely demise, in which they wandered the Void... until the Warriors of Light chanced upon them on their first foray there.

Voidsent: Able to freely dissipate their form, and reform later. Resistent to dark-aspected damage. Able to ingest pure aether in lieu of traditional sustenance.
Memoriate: Able to seal other voidsent into crystals - thus preventing them from reforming.

Communio: An altered version of a traditional Reaper ability that inflicts much more damage than usual.
Scryption: Immensely powerful attack that - if applicable - encases the enemy in crystal if not already dead.

Cinnamon [Partner]
A'kit Tasui [Friend]
Fray Myste [Acquaintance(?)]
Y'shtola Rhul [Acquaintance] ➔
Despite Y'shtola naming Zero, the two do not get along quite well - partially from Y'shtola commandeering the pact Zero was initially planning on forming with Cinnamon, and later, partially from Y'shtola's name of choice for Zero.
Jullus pyr Norbanus [Friend] ➔
Jullus and Zero are friends, in the loosest sense of the word. While they did not spend much time together due to circumstances, Zero would be bothered by Jullus's potential demise, and as such, they consider him a friend.
Durante [Acquaintance(?)] ➔
A complicated relationship born of a mutual desire to save their homeworld, the two travel the Void to gauge the ruin and restore it. Zero tolerates Durante at best, and the feeling is mutual. On occasion, they will sometimes pester Durante - who in turn criticizes their choices of not remaining solely on the Thirteenth.
