Grimm Seacut
Firbolg, Veteran Soldier of the Dire Wolves

His life took a drastic turn when the War of W990 broke out, leading to his exceptional military service alongside his friend Thorn. The duo earned the Crimson Valor award for their work within the elite Dire Wolves, sacrificing their previous identities for the sake of duty. Post-war, Grimm retired to a farm near Keystone, grappling with the disappearance of his friend and the unspoken truth that lingers in his heart.

Lady Selkath
Dragon, Leader of Crystalia
Lady Selkath is a vision of icy beauty, with a mane of long, flowing blonde hair and piercing blue eyes that seem to bore into one's soul. Her skin is as pale as the snow in her homeland, and her lithe frame is clad in robes of shimmering white that seem to reflect the light around her. She appears poised and refined, with a calm and controlled voice. Lady Selkath is a white dragon in disguise, harboring a desire to maintain her power and influence, as well as protect her people from external threats.

Her skills with the bow and arrows make her a highly competent marksman, and she is known for her fierce and aggressive voice that commands respect and strikes fear into her opponents.
Chauncey Stoutfoot
Harengon, Co-Secretary of Wiltspar
Chauncey Stoutfoot is the twin brother of Penelope and serves as one of the secretaries at the Wiltspar. He is described as moody with disheveled fur and weary eyes. With a sullen and broody disposition, he gives off an indifferent and disinterested vibe, yet excels in providing essential information about the inhabitants of Wiltspar and their abilities. Chauncey is a proficient programmer and creator of the Disk Cord communication system, a technological advancement that facilitates communication within the community. He seems more engaged with his inventions than in personal interactions.
Penelope Stoutfoot

Dr. T
Dwarf, Proprietor of The Thistle House

Trained in transfiguration magic at the Arcademy, he is both generous and discerning, protecting his business interests. During the Darkness crisis, he crossed paths with the Platinum Talons in Boymin, showcasing his compassion and business acumen in times of adversity.
Tali (Deceased)
Celestial but appears as Dwarf, Master Illusionist
Tali, a formidable female dwarf with long ruby-colored hair, is an ally to both the Platinum Talons and Ricotti in their ongoing and shared quest to combat the encroaching Darkness that haunts Boymin and the surrounding areas. Her devil-may-care attitude, expressed through her bold personality, often appears at odds with her outwardly gentle choice of pastel-colored robes.
Beneath this contrasting facade lies a master illusionist of unparalleled skill. Tali's spellwork enables her to craft illusions of such realistic detail that they border on the extraordinary. These illusions extend to the creation of two notable challenges that have tested the mettle of the Talons in their pursuit of light amidst the encroaching shadow: The Illusory Darkness Dragon, a beguiling creation that lured the Talons into combat in the woods outside of Boymin, and the enigmatic Wonder House Illusion, a complex puzzle and Matryoshka doll of illusions nestled inside of a rather ordinary looking home in the Boymin residential district.
Tiphanie Tiller
Half-Elf, Chipper Child
Tiphanie Tiller, a half-elf child previously afflicted with Shackle Bones, had her life transformed when Firebrook combined his abilities with that of the Warden's Shield and cured her condition.

Zeb Tiller
Half-Elf, Wiltspar Bank Artisan
Zeb Tiller, a half-elf with a keen interest in counting, previously worked at Inkling's Bookstore in Platinum City. His encounter with the Platinum Talons led to a new life at Wiltspar, where he found joy in counting at the Wiltspar Bank of Holding. Known for his helpful and inquisitive nature, Zeb is a treasure who helps to keep Wiltspar Village running.
Trixie
Owner of the Moonlight Carnival
Trixie appears as a small gnome woman with a common expression that is at once painfully bored and remarkably vexed. She has a mass of thick and curly black hair that is often twisted into a high, careless bun. She wears spiked hide armor that is a few shades lighter and pinker than her violet eyes, and, if she carries a weapon, it has always remained concealed. She speaks with the accent of a receptionist from the far off plane of 'Jersey,' and with a tone that, at kindest, would be considered flippant. Trixie gives off the energy of someone who would laugh very hard at compilations of people falling down staircases, or an angry toddler who would happily rip the nose off of a clown at a birthday party. Yet, do not be fooled by her petulance and apparent youth, as she knows much more than she has ever willingly divulged. (Note: For a detailed account of Trixie and the Moonlight Carnival, please refer to her full page here.)
Edwina Twylle
Fairy, Owner of Sprightly Spirits; Artisan of Wiltsbar
Edwina Twylle is a fairy woman with the same soft brown hair as her son, Ollie, and big amber eyes. Her wings resemble those of a white swallowtail butterfly. She runs a shop in Platinum City called "Sprightly Spirits," where she sells alcohols of her own distilling that produce magical effects in those who drink them. Edwina is mild-mannered and lightly exasperated by her son's antics, but she supports and loves him dearly.

Ollie Twylle
Fairy, Precotious Kiddo
Ollie Twylle is a lively and high-spirited fairy child, with floppy brown hair, big green eyes, and moth-like wings. His high-pitched voice reflects his enthusiasm, which sometimes leads him to cast unintended spells. Ollie is always ready for an adventure and eagerly demonstrates his magical prowess to impress others.

Emporer Valerius Tyr
Elf, Leader of Tyrrus
Valerius Tyr is a striking figure, with sharp features and a piercing gaze that seems to look right through you. His pale skin is almost otherworldly, and his black hair falls in loose waves around his face. He is always impeccably dressed, with fine silks and velvets that speak of his wealth and power. His arrogance and bloodthirsty nature often lead him to regard others as beneath him until they prove their worth.
