Aerovia Jeevens, known as Beeper, is a Luxidran student and paladin-track defender whose human body has been altered with forged construct components. Her Witchborn power forms protective energy armor, reinforcing her plating and letting her hold the line under pressure. Once close to Andrea Pelosh, Beeper has become more guarded since Andrea’s disappearance, turning grief and uncertainty into discipline. To some, she is a breakthrough in magical integration; to others, a warning about how far institutions will go.
characterBrother Fidelphi Castro is Hugo's betrayal target and a Castro-face identity clue whose New Goblin City death/curse leaves his true role unresolved.
characterValara Cirio, known as C.C. or The Blade, is the Gravenhurst Thieves Guild leader whose senses expose impostors, Castro body mismatch, and Krane-touched mutation.
characterJonah Subramountian, known as Cardinal, believes every disaster is a miracle that arrived before anyone was ready. Raised in a secluded temple of the Creator, the mountain dwarf cleric learned faith, craft, and relentless cheer before a divine mishap carried him to Von Queef University. Now with My Alchemical Romance, Jonah heals wounds, lifts spirits, and meets despair with illegible pamphlets and unwavering conviction. His earthspeaking power steadies the ground beneath his friends, while his joy reminds them why they keep standing.
characterAl Ivers, known as Facsimile, is a True Neutral human artist-merchant of Aleklot’s Rest whose workshop sits somewhere between craft, crime, and wishful mathematics. A magically inclined counterfeiter, Al produces black-market spell scrolls that he proudly claims work 90% of the time, with the remaining risk dismissed as the customer’s problem and the dice’s fault. When QUEST met him after the Ragefort road incident, he answered questions about price, legality, and reliability with the confidence of a man who has survived his own inventory. Infatuated with Jessica James and always ready to bargain, Al sells possibility cheaply—as long as nobody asks too hard what happens on a one.
characterMeeg, known as the Goblin Queen, carries a title that sounds like a joke until the swarm answers. Listed as both goblin and human, she occupies a strange place between identity, nobility, and instinctive command.
characterLamia — Morgan Draxtler is a My Alchemical Romance necromancer whose family name also appears as Draxler and Draxter because even Morgan is canonically uncertain about it.
characterHugo Drider, known as Madcap, is an infernal Castro hunter and trapper who works from concealment rather than formal party membership. In Act 5 Gravenhurst, Jonah Subramountian disrupted Hugo’s Castro trap while chasing a Nick-like figure; Hugo then shadowed My Alchemical Romance from trees and windows because they remained his best active lead to Castro. Hugo entered the necromancer chapel fight late and quietly kept necromancy loot, including the Gloves of Rotting Flesh.
characterElmyra Manticore, known as Prism, is an infernal Witchborn sorcerer from Dreadport whose magic first kept her alive as street performance before earning her a place among VQU’s First Five. Flashy, unpredictable, and Chaotic Good, she turns raw instability into color, motion, and sudden elemental transformation.
characterSinclair is Nora's VQU retainer and Rabe House courier, making the Velvet Cross support network visible through gifts, access, and controlled hospitality.
characterZetch, known as Rubber, is a VQU New Student with elastic/bouncing physicality and a reckless appetite for action. In Act 5 near Root Barrel Farm, Zetch argued with Ellenthyra Mew and Nell Quiv over cave loot, bounced off Vic Vaurr, and became excited by Vic’s murderball-style throws.
characterOrenthal James, known as Squeeze, is tied to the Aleklotson Inn, Jessica James, Rifleton Rob prisoner continuity, and the Al Ivers discount errand.

characterBaba Snout is a magical polar bear from Svarsbard searching for Princess Hummus Snout, the cub known to My Alchemical Romance as P.B. Direct, loud, and aggressive on the road, Baba treats P.B.’s disappearance as a royal theft or rescue mission rather than a misunderstanding.

itemControlled dose for 1 hour: +2 to Strength, Dexterity, and Charisma checks and saves; -2 to Constitution, Intelligence, and Wisdom checks and saves. When the effect ends, make a DC 13 Constitution save or gain exhaustion; the DC increases by 2 for each failed Boost comedown save within 24 hours. A green shimmer gives disadvantage on Deception checks to appear sober within 10 feet. Uncontrolled Boost vapor, gas pits, mushrooms, or contaminated atmospheres can poison rather than empower, applying the downsides without the benefits.
itemAction: DC 14 Dex save in 15-ft cone for 2d6 piercing, half on success. Overpack spends 1 charge for 3d6 and push 5 ft. Boost vapor makes loud district boom. Poplimb Bone Cartridge adds 1d6.
