New VQU

Mountain dwarf cleric, healer, and moral center of My Alchemical Romance whose earthspeaking and faith in Djeebus keep impossible hope alive.

Chaos-powered Manticore sorcerer assigned as a new or temporary leader after Maine's arrest.

Infernal Castro hunter, trapper, and party-adjacent ally whose revenge thread now points toward active Castro hunting.

Minotaur sanguinomancer and former Stormcall StormCrows player who joins the post-Maine-arrest roster.

Uthred, known as Bastard, is a claimant to the Uthred name whose records preserve more uncertainty than proof. Unlike Uthred Uthredson, the legendary Ragnarok of Kremgrad, this Uthred exists in the margins: family claimed, status unknown, and identity unresolved. Whether illegitimate heir, pretender, survivor, or political inconvenience, the title Bastard makes his place in Jericha’s histories deliberately uncomfortable. In a lineage already tied to war heroism, sparkspeaking, and common resistance, his existence raises dangerous questions about blood, inheritance, and who gets to own a legend. Some names are given. Others are fought over.

Bobbi Prindle, known as Bauble, became the loudest voice among the Reborn: students who died during the Battle of VQU and returned when the school reopened. Her resurrection turned tragedy into recruitment, making her both proof of the Phoenix Circuit’s promise and a symbol of how far VQU would go to refill its halls. As the group’s vocal leader, Bauble speaks for students who woke into a second life already tied to institutional ambition. She presents the Reborn as survivors, not mistakes, even as their return carries consequences no one on campus fully understands.

Fidelphi Castro, known as Brother, is a drow tied to Hugo Drider’s Madcap Pirates history. In Act 5 Episode 6, he appeared in the New Goblin City Black Market, recognized Hugo, fled, and was chased and attacked by Hugo as a traitor.

Greta Wunsch, known as Crone, keeps Von Queef University functioning by doing what most mages fear most: reading the rules and enforcing them. A senior administrator from Le Queef, she oversees compliance, discipline, records, and the fragile bureaucracy holding VQU together after collapse, reopening, and reform. Greta has no Witchborn power and needs none. Her authority comes from procedure, sealed files, contract language, and the terrifying certainty that she knows exactly which form was filed incorrectly. To volatile faculty and reckless students, she is not glamorous, but she may be the reason the university survives its own brilliance.

Timberlake von Queef, known as Encore, is a half-elf bard, noble scion, and former member of the Queefdom boy band 32 Degrees. Charismatic, scandal-prone, and theatrically self-aware, he turned celebrity into both weapon and shield, wielding sonokinesis through performance, glamour, and crowd emotion. His career has survived noble intrigue, rivalry with Bon von Bovi, magical transformation into a penguin, planar exile, and a public return that made him impossible to dismiss. Now tied to the Von Queef family, VQU, and Jericha’s touring circuits, Timberlake remains a political wildcard with a performer’s smile and a survivor’s timing.

Eveline Pringle, known as Glintfang, was raised to embody the polished future of Point Pringle’s most famous family, but her life has always strained against the image built for her. At Von Queef University she presents as a refined noble student, while privately carrying the wild magic and lycanthropy her family worked to conceal. Glamour charms and a silver locket help hide the wolf beneath the heir, but emotion and moonlight make secrecy fragile. Now married to Faephine Moonhold Pringle, Eveline stands between legacy and self-rule, determined that her curse will not be owned by anyone but her.

Havyk is a half-orc, half-elf rogue from the Free Coast, raised under Orlac’s brutal doctrine and determined to become something sharper than the Violince that made her. She fled her tribe, survived alone, and found peace with Devaireaux, a gentle noble whose love gave her a life beyond bloodshed before his death tore it apart. Now fighting with Kickassery Inc. and the Pink Pony Girls, Havyk protects queer lives, breaks abusive power, and turns grief into purpose. With psychic blades, magnetic control, Chaos the raven, and a broken pocket watch ticking like a heartbeat, she does not seek permission to be kind or dangerous.

Ironhoof — Astrid Ironhoof is a centaur alchemist, Head of Alchemical Studies at Von Queef University, and a recurring academic anchor around fieldwork, horticulture, and practical magical research tied to the Little Shoppe. After losing her expected place in the reformed Centrum, her investigation into void-resonant potions and altered Boost-era alchemy made her an active source of clues, reform pressure, and regulated-power conflict.

Kaya is a human monk of Kickassery Inc. whose quiet discipline and rage are tied to the massacre of her adoptive monastery family and her unresolved bond with Kuzon, now Hollow — Alfred Rallus. Her active importance comes from Gravenhurst’s Black Ward pressure, reports that she was targeted for Albert-style experiments, and the question of whether justice, vengeance, or spiritual clarity will define her next step.

Baron von Queef, known as Kindred, is the resurrected dhampir headmaster of Von Queef University and heir to two dangerous bloodlines. Revived by his mother, Nora Rabe von Queef, he returned with telepathic power, theatrical charisma, and a renewed appetite for influence. After Centrum’s collapse, Baron reopened VQU and helped establish QUEST as a response to Jericha’s growing threats. Equal parts noble, performer, and political architect, he knows every room is a stage.

M.A.I.N.E., known simply as Maine, is a Hexelf and forged construct survivor of the M.A.I. experiments, rebuilt by void science into something part sorcerer, part warlock, part detective, and part warning. Their steel, circuits, and scars are obvious; their real weapon is Whispering, a mental manipulation gift that plants doubt, paranoia, confidence, or questions where certainty used to be. With My Alchemical Romance and the MKN Detective Agency, Maine turns trauma into tactics while searching for the other M.A.I. subjects and the truth of their own making. Power made them dangerous, but their chosen bonds may decide what they become.

Zetch, 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.

In Act 5 near Root Barrel Farm, she appeared with Zetch and Ellenthyra Mew after the trio looted a cave; she objected to Jonah Subramountian’s proposal to break a legendary wand into thirds and argued it should go to whoever wanted to preserve it.

Tallulah Murn, known as Tallyman, is a halfling assassin of FLESH whose quiet presence carries the weight of a ledger written in scars. Raised in neglect and marked by the murder of her warforged father, she turned private hatred into ritualized Violince against constructs and those who shelter them. Each confirmed kill is carved into her own body, transforming pain into record, prayer, and proof. Her supernatural senses make her a patient stalker, especially in Stormcall, where her targets often realize too late they are being counted. Neutral Evil and methodical, Tallulah is not simply killing for FLESH. She is keeping score.

Djeebus, the Creator, is a divine force of invention among the Power Nine, worshiped by artificers, tinkerers, and anyone desperate enough to build past the edge of safety. His influence appears in laboratories, workshops, and impossible breakthroughs, where inspiration arrives faster than caution can follow. Djeebus grants creation, but rarely comfort; his gifts spark progress, instability, and consequences that may outlive their makers. To him, the world is not finished. It is a prototype.

Tamber Soot, known as Timbre, is a 17-year-old kenku phantom rogue and abandoned courier from the Lonely Islands, now counted among VQU’s new students. True Neutral and guarded by necessity, they learned early that a voice can open doors, carry lies, or disappear without leaving a body behind. Their Witchborn voice theft lets them mimic any creature heard within the past day with near-perfect accuracy, bypassing even magical detection and making identity dangerously portable. As a courier, survivor, and student, Tamber moves between messages, ghosts, and secrets with quiet precision. They rarely raise their own voice, but they know how to borrow yours.

Yebbediah Grymmeye X, known simply as X, is a void-touched elven necromancer and diminished lich whose name remains one of Von Queef University’s darkest academic stains. Born into the Grymmeye line, he pursued resurrection theory past every ethical boundary, aided by allies and family legacy until the death of Annie Rein marked his work as atrocity rather than scholarship. His necromantic gravespeaking, soul-binding expertise, and lich durability made him feared long before the Phoenix Process partially undid his undeath. Now tied to CentrumNow, X remains cold, brilliant, and dangerous: proof that some minds survive judgment by becoming harder to kill.

Faephine Moonhold Pringle, known as Zodiac, is an elven astrologian noble of Point Pringle whose calm manner hides a mind trained to read fractures in the heavens. Schooled through Poe’s rare stellar tradition, she studies fate-threads, dream patterns, void tears, and temporal distortions with the precision expected of Moonhold blood. Her marriage to Eveline Pringle places her within one of Point Pringle’s most volatile lineages, but Faephine is more than a stabilizing ornament. She is the one watching the stars for warnings no court would believe until too late.

Calithea was born to a noble house below the world and cursed into the form of a medusa before she could choose what that meant. Where her twin sister Xalaethra embraced monstrosity, Calithea fled toward mercy. Blindfolded to spare others from her gaze, she hid beneath the farm that would become Rootbarrel Brewery and devoted herself to healing, peace, and the study of petrification’s cure. Gentle by choice rather than weakness, Calithea proves that a curse does not get to decide the shape of a soul.

Xalaethra is a Neutral Evil medusa sorcerer and exiled noble slaver from the Underdark, twin sister to Calithea and everything Calithea refused to become. Born into a house where cruelty was inheritance, Xalaethra embraced her curse as proof of superiority, using petrifying power, shadow magic, and manipulation to command fear. Exile only moved her ambitions to the surface, where she gathered Grimlocks, outcasts, and captives around Hazy Pastures and the old Rootbarrel lands. Regal, sadistic, and vain, she sees mercy as weakness and loyalty as ownership. To Xalaethra, fear is currency—and she spends it generously.
