•
Name: Chlorine "Halo" Khloros
•
Age: Most likely mid-20s, but she's not about to tell you
•
Height: 6' 7"
•
Weight: A solid weight, though perhaps not so surprising with her height and healthy frame
•
Specie: Too many. We'll leave it at that.
•
Occupation: Taxi driver
•
Relation: Card's adoptive sister / Fage's aunt
•
Personality Notes: If one was not aware that it was her normal attitude, one could be concerned that they somehow got on Halo's bad side. Contrary to popular thought, she puts on this aggressive and downright angry personality to keep others at bay. She is, by no stretch of the imagination, a social person. If she likes someone, she'd bombard them with snarky remarks and venom aboard a cold shoulder; if she dislikes someone, she'd probably do the same, plus perhaps a few punches thrown into the mix. She is devoted to family and friends, despite treating them with the same respect, and her loyalties run deep.

Name: Merit Baako Khloros
•
Age: Toddler
•
Height: For a kid with long unicorn legs, not abnormally tall
•
Weight: About average
•
Specie: Genie / Unicorn Hybrid
•
Occupation: Child
•
Relation: Halo's charge / Card's... niephew? / Fage's cousin
•
Personality Notes: For the most part, Merit is a rather mousy child. Not entirely
shy, but the kid would probably much rather avoid a confrontation for expectation of it going badly, if at all possible. The kind of toddler who would love to hole up in a corner with a pile of building blocks rather than socialize, very few words come out of this mixer's mouth until there has been an adequate amount of time spent to warm up to the other. Very generous when allowed to, Merit also has the habit of becoming silently hyperactive -- the kid's got a sweet tooth for caffeine, and as such, tends to have clumsily shaky hands to boot. An all-around hard-worker, Merit seems to go out of the way to please adults as well as those that the kid feel it wants to get to know better.

•
Name: Argon "Star" Ārgos
•
Age: He's quick to say 10, but looks more like he's in his late teens, early 20's
•
Height: Quite tall, when he actually bothers to stand up fully; about 6' 5"
•
Weight: Much heavier than the stringbean look suggests
•
Specie: EGADS, WHAT IS THAT!?•
Occupation: Composer / Out-of-work column writer
•
Relation: Card's adoptive brother / Fage's uncle
•
Personality Notes: If there was one word that best fits Star, it's "lethargic." In fact, he can be downright lazy if someone doesn't prod him with a stick every once in a while; he thinks he needs an average of eighteen hours of sleep a day. He complains an awful lot, but is also determinedly stubborn in proving himself when one shows disbelief in his ability to function. Most of the time, it's simply a matter of the day you catch him on. Most jokes, comments that require one to read between the lines, and anything remotely romantic go right over his head. However, while his intellect may be lacking in the social environment, he is a regular jack-of-all-trades, taking on new activities like a fish to water.

•
Name: Kreutz Valin Ārgos
•
Age: Child (
approx. 5-9)
•
Height: Average for his age (
in other words, a bit of a runt)
•
Weight: A healthy weight due to high levels of activity
•
Specie: Eilian (
Blue-tailed Skink)
•
Occupation: Child
•
Relation: Star's charge / Card's nephew / Fage's cousin
•
Personality Notes: Although Kreutz is a child with a boundless supply of energy, he isn't exactly hyperactive. He has a lot in the way of patience, able to preoccupy himself where most his age may get bored waiting for something to occur. That isn't to say that he'd like waiting too long, and won't hesitate to complain about it, but he is a highly optimistic individual, if rather arrogant. He'd prefer to stay happy, and at times may seem a little dense because of it. In fact, there are times where he can act rather coldly to others, seem a bit too self-centered for comfort or act upon a large amount of sarcasm. When angered, he can spit venom like the best of them -- if he's able to keep a level head. He isn't a pacifist, and might even be a little too rough on a good day. While he may need to learn to be more gentle with words and actions, his movements could give an adverse impression: he moves with an unbelieveable amount of balance and grace.

•
Name: Aluminum "Stasis" Alumen
•
Age: Maintains the argument of "18," despite years gone by
•
Height: 5' 5"
•
Weight: Much,
much heavier than average
•
Specie: Golem? Demon? ....Armadillo-person?
•
Occupation: Pharmacist / Medic / Tank?
•
Relation: Card's adoptive sister / Fage's aunt
•
Personality Notes: Understanding, forgiving to a near-crippling fault, and a default demeanor of kindness (if socially inept), this doesn't stop Stasis from being able to put her foot down. In fact, she can be a surprising force to be reckoned with, as long as one takes attitude over outward appearance. She isn't a pushover in the slightest, even
if she may forgive you for blowing up city hall. She doesn't even need to raise her voice to intimidate, as it is unlikely she ever radiates -- or even
feels -- fear. Due to this, she can sometimes seem incredibly reckless and moronically defiant.

•
Name: Platinum "Black" Platina del Pinto
•
Age: Physically, about 8; chronologically, about 5; mentally, much older
•
Height: 4' 1"
•
Weight: About average for his size
•
Specie: Appears generally humanoid
•
Occupation: "Child" / Unknown (
underhanded dealings)
•
Relation: Card's adoptive brother / Fage's uncle
•
Personality Notes: As someone so young, it is almost appaling as to how well he can grasp situations and hold himself in the rank of an adult; in fact, if one were blind, they may think him a wise old man. Well,
maybe they would, if he wasn't so conniving about it. Truth be told, he acts as though he were power-hungry half the time, and his motives are completely unclear. That isn't to say he won't help anyone out -- quite the contrary, he tends to love doing just that -- but he plays it as though he can gain something from doing so. It is ambiguous whether this is a front, or if there really is something to acquire, on his terms. While normally coldly level-headed, Black can quickly get irritated with a situation or a person, and therefore makes little in the way of friends.

•
Name: Mercury "Cinnabar" Hydrargyros
•
Age: Unknown, and outward appearance isn't going to help
•
Height: On the extremely tall side, but just about never stands completely upright
•
Weight: Incredibly light; about a sixth of what he looks like he should
•
Specie: Unknown; most species can't light themselves on fire and be fine with it
•
Occupation: Black's "pet project" / Weapon
•
Relation: Card's adoptive... "brother" / Fage's uncle?
•
Personality Notes: He has little will of his own, being under the care of Black and the hypnosis he can employ. Instinctively, Cinnabar is a violent and angry soul, prone to frequent bouts of agitated frenzy. Black's mind skills keep him, for the most part, completely subdued and in a halcyonic state-of-mind. He rarely speaks, and when he does, it is most often in the form of a single word. He is used mostly as a guardian, and Black may even station him outside his room so as to halt anyone from bothering him. He is a rather curious individual when clouded, and in such times, has a habit of following whatever is interesting him at any given time, regardless of situation. He has a fondness for wind chimes.
