Von Queef University

Centrum Security Forces (2100 MB -) / Illusioncraft

Angelique Martinique, known as Angeldust, was a VQU student when she witnessed Albert Rallus murder a fellow student, a moment that turned campus glamour into survival instinct. With blonde hair and high-fey poise, she helped Josette move from that Violince into the Queefdom elite of Velvet Cross.

Arcanist Ascendancy / Illusioncraft

Arcanos Brightgleam is a gnome enchantment scholar and public spokesman for the Arcanist Ascendancy. Once an adjunct professor at Von Queef University, he built his reputation on theatrical lectures, applied illusions, and making dangerous arcane theory sound wonderfully reasonable.

Vorpal / Chronokinesis (Timespeaking)

Arthur is a surviving M.A.I. experiment, Vorpal founder, and portal-route ally now headed to VQU with Elmyra for Baron-backed support.

VQU Faculty

Profile details are still being written.

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.

Reborn / Red Magic (Cantrip Specialist)

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.

Elf (Sea)

Djeebus movement / Gravenhurst church

Djon Charleston is a Gravenhurst Djeebus preacher whose Big Project donation movement, church barrier, and conflict with Jonah make him both civic defender and ideological rival.

Pink Pony Girls / Battle Hymn

Tarria Brand, known as Blackheart, is an infernal bard of Kickassery Inc. and the Pink Pony Girls whose grief became a weapon against the Graven Scourge. Raised with her sister Natasha as her anchor, Tarria was shattered when Boost dragged her family into Violince, addiction, and loss.

S.S. Daddy / Thieves Guild adjacent / Volatile Manipulation

Bella Andrews, known as Blastbelle, is a human demolitions specialist whose Witchborn energy blasts are hidden inside compact alchemical canisters. Working as an independent contractor for the Thieves’ Guild and the S.S. Daddy, she turns raw arcane force into bombs used for break-ins, sabotage, diversions, and dangerous extractions. Most underworld clients credit her genius to alchemy alone, and Bella is happy to let them. Unstable, inventive, and fiercely independent, she prefers spectacle to subtlety and refuses to belong to anyone.

Black Company / Centrum (2100 MB -) / Pyrokinesis (Flamespeaking)

Ignotus, known as Blaze, is an infernal sorcerer and former member of the Swarsbard Three whose pyrokinesis manifests through flamespeaking. A strategist more than a hero, he built the Black Company into a mercenary aid organization with darker business beneath the surface. Through his partnership with Maskara Azur, Ignotus distributes enchanted masks to criminals, then profits again by retrieving them. Now tied to the reformed Centrum, he treats fire as symbol, weapon, contract, and warning.

Von Queef University / Animal Mimicry

Cynthiana of the Wilds, known as Boho, is an elven druid who serves as a bridge between Von Queef University and the untamed territories of the Wilds. Her Witchborn animal mimicry lets her borrow senses, instincts, and behaviors from the natural world, making her a subtle but vigilant guardian of ecological balance.

Von Queef University / Necromancy (Gravespeaking)

Brunk Charleston, known as Bones, is an undead gravekeeper and necromancer bound to the Queefdom Cemetery near Gravenhurst. Once a mortal scholar tied to Von Queef University and the Phlakin Library, he preserved his soul inside his own decaying body and has guarded the dead for centuries.

Von Queef University

Bowflex was the beloved magically enhanced tyrannosaurus mascot of Von Queef University and former companion of groundskeeper Al Dyrio. More than a campus symbol, he served as a living defender during the Drakkuskan War, holding the line against a Dragonborn assault long enough for students and faculty to evacuate.

Graven Scourge / Thieves Guild formerly / Brawling

Retyunskikh Braskawyk built the name Braska the Red in the streets and strongholds of Gravenhurst, where reputation is earned loudly or not at all. Once a Thieves Guild contractor, he cut ties and rose as a captain of the Graven Scourge, favoring open dominance over quiet deals.

Meadowkin Commune / Rootbarrel Brewing / Supernatural Strength

Barney Rootbarrel, known as Brawny, is a halfling agricultural alchemist and co-founder of Medusa’s Farm near the Glow Pools. Once a beet farmer outside the Queefdom, Barney helped turn abandoned land into a working commune through patience, labor, and quiet strength.

My Alchemical Romance / Geokinesis (Earthspeaking)

Jonah 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.

Black Ward

Jeff Low, known as Castaway, is the Black Ward’s least intimidating cleric: a farm boy who followed a stranger’s whispers into the Void because they sounded like belonging. More earnest than fanatical, Jeff prays too long, smiles when frightened, and mistakes ordinary coins or barn stains for divine omens. His communion brings muddled dreams and fleeting visions, usually misunderstood but sometimes strangely useful. Captured by the Castro, he survived by being too harmless to fear and too sincere to discard. Now he drifts between cult and captors, unsure whether he was chosen, forgotten, or simply left standing where the universe last dropped him.

First Five / Healing

Saphira Enn, known as Ceremony, came to Von Queef University carrying the quiet weight of a Black Ward upbringing. Once shaped by cult doctrine, she now studies as a cleric among the First Five, searching for redemption through healing rather than obedience.

Bird

City Dan is a bird companion who reveals Janna Brightspark's link to Braska during the Pink Pony Gravenhurst abduction investigation.

Reborn / Form Duplication

Rico Bial, known as Dupe, is a human fighter from South Aerovia and a former arena trainee whose discipline was forged under pressure long before he reached Von Queef University. His Witchborn power manifests as form duplication, letting him split a temporal shard from himself so a second strike lands beside his own.

Pink Pony Girls / Teleportation

Dallas Dalton, known as Dally, was raised in a close-knit community where loyalty meant survival and family meant everything. When her mother, K’Zhara Flamehand, was taken by powerful men, Dallas carried the loss like a live coal. Now a fire djinni barbarian with the Pink Pony Girls and Kickassery Inc.

Svarsbard Three / 32 Degrees / Sonokinesis

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.

Centrum Security Forces (former) / The Lawful / Technopathy

Yuri Pelosh, known publicly as Ferro, was once Stormcall’s shining armored hero: an industrial heir, Centrum security figure, and celebrity defender whose suits made him look untouchable.

Queefdom / Gloomspire / Sanguinomancy

Firestarter — Nick Kremp was a lawful-hearted infernal wizard of My Alchemical Romance whose warmth, optimism, and public charisma made him the party’s emotional spark as much as its fire mage. His relationships with I.J. and P.B., the surrendered void-crystal scythes, his death, and the unresolved Root Barrel Farm Nick-like figure keep his legacy central because the question is not only whether Nick can return, but whether what returns would still be him.

My Alchemical Romance / Pyrokinesis (Flamespeaking)

Nick Kremp, the Firestarter, was an infernal wizard and adventurer of My Alchemical Romance whose lawful heart burned as brightly as his flamespeaking. Raised without privilege, Nick became the group’s public voice, hype man, and emotional warmth, using charm, optimism, and fire magic to lift others even when the world turned dangerous. His relationship with Iwlvflybadofsjhhu Jr. and bond with Princess Beatrix, his beloved polar bear companion, grounded him beyond spectacle. Nick believed in doing good, following the law where he could, and keeping the spark alive for his friends; his death in 2100 MB left My Alchemical Romance without one of its brightest lights.

Chimera Range / Influence

Fixel is a Witchborn teen intern at the Chimera Range, where most researchers see hybrids as experiments, failures, or containment problems. She sees frightened living things.

Pink Pony Girls / Pyrokinesis (Flamespeaking)

Diarmaid, called Flynn by Dallas Dalton, is a massive long-haired Highland cow with the calm patience of a pasture and the impact force of a runaway wagon. Raised alongside Dallas and gifted to her as a calf, Flynn has followed her from home to the Pink Pony Girls as companion, guardian, and family.

VQU Faculty / Clairvoyance

Horton, known as Forespoke, has spent decades at Von Queef University watching futures arrive badly, early, or not at all. A former Centrum archivist during the Drakkuskan War and brother to Poe, Jericha’s leading astrologian, he now teaches divination with a calm precision that unsettles even seasoned faculty. His Witchborn precognition grants glimpses of possible outcomes, but Horton treats prophecy as evidence, not destiny. As overseer of predictive combat simulations and student foresight training, he stands as one of VQU’s quiet defenses against timeline corruption. Some say he already knows the date of his death.

Centrum (-2099 MB) / Clairvoyance

Foulcrum — Ash Stonefist is a disciplined monk from the Temple of the Equinox Vale whose void-tentacle mutation forces him to test balance, restraint, and spiritual control against powers that may have been engineered around him. His importance to My Alchemical Romance comes through his loyalty, trauma, and unresolved origin, with active hooks around Wisdom/Charisma instability, Salvatore Mentali, Soldier, counterfeit scrying, and the revelation that his power may not truly come from the Aboleth.

My Alchemical Romance / Void Manifestation

Ash Stonefist was raised in seclusion by the Temple of the Equinox Vale, where discipline, balance, and physical mastery shaped every part of his life. His training made him focused and precise, but left him unfamiliar with much of the wider world. When void-born tentacles emerged from his body, Ash treated the change as part of his spiritual path. His power now tests the teachings that formed him, forcing him to balance serenity with mutation and control with uncertainty. As a member of My Alchemical Romance, Ash brings loyalty, speed, and strange wisdom to the group. His journey centers on mastering the tension between discipline and the void within him.

Exiles / Oath

Remington Debris, known among the Exiles as Garbage, is a raccoonfolk paladin who turned dismissal into devotion. Raised in the Timberlands with a fierce sense of duty, he left home to defend those the world would rather overlook.

EVILs / Energy Armor

Alexa B’Praghus, marked as Gemini ♀, is one half of the Gemini twins and a polished weapon of EVILS. Raised in aristocratic privilege, she learned that confidence could open doors, end conversations, and make cruelty look like poise.

EVILs / Teleportation

Alexi B’Praghus, marked as Gemini ♂, is the other half of the B’Praghus twins and a Lawful Evil sorcerer aligned with EVILS. Where Alexa turns confidence into defense and social control, Alexi turns space itself into an escape route, weapon, and tactical advantage.

Freedom Forge

General — Orlandus Spokovich was a wood elf/forged VQU student from the Timber Islands whose charm, humor, and theatrical confidence made him one of Floor 3’s defining presences before the campus broke open. His murder by Albert Rallus matters because it removed the student who made rooms feel alive, turning early VQU from a place of performance, jokes, and memorable trouble into a site of public grief and factional fracture.

Faerie

Glintfang — Eveline Pringle is the Point Pringle noble heir whose hidden lycanthropy, marriage to Faephine Moonhold, and resistance to being used as a clean political solution make her central to Pringle succession pressure. Her active relevance runs through Ash’s former hopes, the Greasetooth crisis, Pringle family instability, and her decision to stay in Point Pringle after PP4 claimed leadership.

Von Queef University / Therianthropy

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.

Dwarf (Mountain) / Illusioncraft

ZsaZsa Glittergold, known as Glittergold, is a mountain dwarf dancer, glamour bard, and flamboyant performer of the Pink Pony Tavern whose art turns spectacle into soft rebellion.

My Alchemical Romance / Supernatural Senses

Darius, known as Grimclaw, is a Catfolk fighter forged by mercenary Violince, survivalist instinct, and the hard lesson that loyalty must be earned in blood. His supernatural senses make him a predator on any battlefield, tracking danger through darkness, movement, and fear. Once part of My Alchemical Romance, Darius has repeatedly been pulled away by a shadow self that hunts him and tempts him toward slaughter, a darkness that once made him a destroyer across dimensions. Now he seeks a simpler path back to Von Queef University, old classmates, and adventure without losing himself. Strong, direct, and more open than he once allowed, Grimclaw remains shield, claw, and unfinished warning.

The Lawful / Oath

Captain Helena Briar, known as Guardian, is a Lawful field commander in Gravenhurst whose authority was earned through merit rather than politics.

Queefdom / Gravenhurst

Centrum (-2099 MB) / Necrobotany

Titian, known as Hemlock, was a tortle druid-necromancer and former elf whose exile from Timber Island transformed both body and philosophy. As a scholar of Von Queef University and founding member of Centrum, he pursued necrobotany not as corruption, but as synthesis: root and bone, bloom and rot, regeneration and decay held in the same living system. His work shaped magical ecology, Centrum governance, and the dangerous belief that endings could be cultivated into beginnings. Betrayed by Albert’s rise and presumed dead, Titian’s legacy still grows through rumor, scholarship, and the strange life rooted from his remains.

Von Queef University / Stormcalling

Mona Rey, known as Herald, is a human noble barbarian of Isla Rey whose royal bloodline burns with volcanic memory and storm-fed pride. Raised on the Lonely Islands with tales of ancestral courage, she became a fierce protector of her people and the elemental balance beneath their homeland.

My Alchemical Romance / Thermokinesis

Igor is Jonah Subramountian’s loyal homunculus companion, stitched together from clay, wax, alchemy, and more sincere devotion than most full-sized believers can manage. Created for delicate rituals and hazardous labwork, he now scuttles through Von Queef University as Jonah’s assistant, candle-bearer, relic-carrier, and tiny squeaking echo of the Creator’s faith. Igor cannot speak beyond one beloved word, but his frantic gestures, devotional mimicry, and hoarded sweets say plenty. Small, comic, and endlessly useful, he proves that even a servant made of scraps can carry belief like a sacred flame.

First Five / Nightmare (Dream Manipulation)

Islo Frid, known as Incubus, is a dhampir bard resurrected through void leakage after the destruction of Port Hollow. At Von Queef University, he joined the First Five less from loyalty than curiosity, ambition, and the pleasure of watching new power take shape. Polished, predatory, and socially precise, Islo treats charm as both art and weapon. His Witchborn nightmare resonance lets him intrude upon dreams, amplify fear, and turn psychic terror into performance. He is not the loudest threat in a room, but he may be the one already waiting in someone’s sleep.

VQU Faculty (former) / Battle Mastery

Ironhoof — Astrid Ironhoof is a centaur alchemist, Head of Alchemical Studies at Von Queef University, and a practical magical researcher whose blunt loyalty to students makes her more than a professor or quest giver.

Von Queef University / Alchemy

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.

Castro Forces / Void Manifestation

J’Oan was a Castro scout and warrior from the Astral Territories, sent into Jericha with a mission narrow enough to sound simple: capture Walter, the dragon bonded to Victor Shaw, whose cross-planar potential made him valuable to forces beyond the world.

The Lawful / Pyrokinesis (Flamespeaking)

Von Queef University / Whispering (Mental Manipulation)

Baron von Queef is VQU's revived dhampir institutional figure and the support target Arthur and Elmyra are seeking for the next Act 5 operation.

Human / Pyrokinesis (Flamespeaking)

Magda Emberveil, known as Lady Emberveil, is a human flamespeaker whose presence carries the heat of a royal court and the danger of an open furnace. Draped in black and crimson, crowned by molten hair and a fiery gemstone focus, she commands attention as easily as she commands flame. Her magic blends pyrokinesis, enchantment, and illusion, making every gesture feel like ceremony and every threat feel beautifully rehearsed. True Neutral by nature, Magda is not easily claimed by heroism or villainy. She is power arranged with elegance, and anyone who mistakes beauty for softness will learn how quickly silk can catch fire.

My Alchemical Romance / Necromancy

My Alchemical Romance / MKN Detective Agency / Whispering (Mental Manipulation)

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.

VQU Faculty / Maskweaving

Masquerade — Nora Rabe von Queef is a shapeshifting noble, Centrum co-founder, and VQU power architect whose control of identity, politics, and survival shaped Jericha’s postwar order. Her current relevance runs through the revived Centrum, Baron’s resurrection and New VQU ambitions, Albert Rallus’s unresolved rat-form escape, and the possibility that every public role she plays is also a strategic mask.

Von Queef University / Velvet Cross / Nora's network / Shapeshifting

Nora Rabe von Queef is a VQU and Velvet Cross power broker using the Rabe House network and Sinclair to support the party while keeping her own position ambiguous.

Pink Pony Girls / The Abyss formerly / Photokinesis

Queefdom / Velvet Cross / Cathedral Estate / Necromancy (Gravespeaking)

Mortellus Vayne, known as Mortis, was a Velvet Cross arch-necromancer who treated death not as tragedy, but as a system waiting to be mastered. His gravespeaking shaped resurrection theory, soul-binding vessels, grief constructs, and the infamous Scroll of Mass Resurrection, earning him awe in fringe circles and fear from regulated arcanists. Yet his deepest failure was personal: when Aria’s mother left by choice, no spell could undo it. Mortis turned legacy into obsession, even bargaining with Gertie the Collector for forbidden knowledge at the cost of Aria’s future child. Now presumed dead, his relics, writings, and possibly his soul remain dangerously unaccounted for.

Pink Pony Girls / Botany

Nymeria Duarte is an elven cleric of Kickassery Inc. whose faith brought her to Gravenhurst seeking a clearer connection with the Gamemaster and the meaning behind her visions. Since youth, she has seen flashes of possible futures, each one tangled in danger, prophecy, and unanswered divine intent.

First Five / Necromancy (Gravespeaking)

Kuovena Bravespeaker, known as Ouija, is a minotaur warlock of Von Queef University and one of the First Five, carrying the dead with them in more ways than one. Raised in the Bravespeaker tradition after the fall of the Wingkin Mountains, they inherited a spiritual lineage shaped by pact obligations, ancestral voices, and survival under pressure. Their gravespeaking lets them commune with spirits, channel the dead, and bind echoes through ritual, but Kuovena seeks more than obedience to old bargains. Chaotic Good and determined to redefine their people’s path, Ouija treats death not as an ending, but as counsel from those still waiting to be heard.

Graven Scourge

Pesto Manticore is an infernal lieutenant of the Graven Scourge and the logistical mind behind Gravenhurst’s Boost distribution network. Raised in the legal shadow of his father, Pedro Manticore, he inherited the family gift for contracts, loopholes, and saying exactly enough to trap someone later. Rather than pursue the courtroom, Pesto turned negotiation into cartel architecture, building laundering fronts, alias chains, and trafficking routes with meticulous care. Lawful Evil and unflappable, he brings order to crime without softening it. In the Scourge, Violince may open doors, but Pesto makes sure every door has paperwork.

Pink Pony Girls

Pops / Lerik Bell is a deceased human associated with the Pink Pony Tavern and Bell family; his imported bio needs separation from PP3 material.

First Five / Chaos Magic

Elmyra 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.

Gnome

Gaz Geargoggle, known as Professor, is a gnome artificer whose name sounds less like a title and more like a warning label attached to unfinished machinery. The records give only a narrow view of him, but what remains is clear: Gaz belongs to the Geargoggle line, works as a professor-artificer, and carries the kind of obsessive curiosity that makes classrooms safer than workshops only in theory. His infatuation with Astrid Ironhoof suggests a softer, more awkward heart beneath the gears, goggles, and lecture notes. In Jericha, Gaz is the sort of academic who can explain a mechanism perfectly while forgetting whether it is still armed.

Centrum (-2099 MB) / Electrokinesis (Sparkspeaking)

Uthred Uthredson, known as Ragnarok, is a mountain dwarf barbarian and sparkspeaker whose name became a rallying cry during the Drakkuskan War. Rising from common roots in Kremgrad, he turned lightning-infused fury into battlefield legend, fighting as a champion of ordinary people rather than polished councils.

Graven Scourge

Natasha Brand, known as Redcloak, is an infernal woman whose disappearance turned Tarria Brand’s grief into a crusade against the Graven Scourge. Once fierce, impulsive, and deeply bonded to her sister, Natasha fell into Boost dependency before vanishing into Gravenhurst’s underworld. Rumors place her in Scourge custody, not as a recruit by choice but as a captive, asset, or test subject reshaped by addiction and experimentation. Her current condition remains unknown, with whispers of mutation and a childhood charm from Tarria still carried somewhere close. To the Scourge, she may be property. To Tarria, she is still family worth burning the city to find.

Thieves Guild / Summoning

Redwave Varn is a captured Gravenhurst Thieves Guild pirate-thief contact whose partnership with Rill Waters and private identity tells matter after Castro used his face.

The Lawful

Renfield Hoek was an elven Lawful gate guard stationed at Gravenhurst’s main entrance, where regulations became performance in his hands. Hyperactive, theatrical, and intensely procedural, he treated every traveler, cart, and suspicious pause as an opportunity to defend civic order with maximum volume. Alongside his partner Stimpson Katz, Renfield kept detailed gate logs and served as one of the city’s most visible, if eccentric, faces of enforcement. His devotion was genuine beneath the absurdity. In 2100 MB, he became lost in Vityhrex’s Labyrinth and was killed fighting dragonborn, leaving Gravenhurst quieter than it ever expected to be.

Von Queef University / Form Duplication

Pink Pony Girls / Cryokinesis (Frostspeaking)

Cailleach Fern, known as Rime, is a hexelf druid shaped by winter, solitude, and the wilderness that raised her after war destroyed her childhood home. She walks with Kickassery Inc. and the Pink Pony Girls as a quiet spiritual compass, speaking rarely but with enough weight to still a room.

Von Queef University / Illusioncraft

Gullie Wave, known as Ripple, is a fae-touched human sorcerer from Willowhearth whose magic moves with the same restless sparkle as her personality.

Von Queef University / Healing

Alison Whiteheart, known as Salve, is a Lawful Good human healer from Phalkin serving at Von Queef University. Though trained in clerical traditions, her restorative gifts are Witchborn rather than divine, focused through direct touch and steady proximity. Alison can stabilize critical trauma, cleanse void-tainted wounds, and sustain healing under crisis conditions without losing emotional control. She avoids politics, doctrine, and spectacle, measuring her work by whether the patient lives. With her soulbonded raven Liora nearby, Alison has become one of VQU’s quiet anchors in the Void Age: not a savior seeking praise, but the person who stays because someone must.

Von Queef University / Phytomancy

Baby Titian, known as Sapling, is a young treant dryad rooted in the grounds of Von Queef University. Grown from the remains of the original Titian, they are both a living memorial and a sign that something ancient may yet return.

Point Pringle Watch / Centrum Lawful Officer (Former) / Discipline

Tira Volne, known as Sergeant, is a mountain dwarf watch captain who keeps Red Parade Square functioning through grit, habit, and a tolerance for Point Pringle’s chaos worn thin by years of service.

Void / Queefdom Underworld

Salvatore Mentali, known as Shadow King, is a soul flayer investor and criminal mastermind whose empire is built from secrets, fear, and carefully measured charm. Unlike flayers bound to the Elder’s agenda, Salvatore forged his own path through the Queefdom’s underworld, commanding spies, enforcers, informants, and debtors with psionic precision. Impeccably dressed and theatrically controlled, he treats every negotiation like a performance and every betrayal like an art form. His shadow empire seeks more than wealth; it seeks obedience. Cross him, and the mind may surrender before the body knows the war has begun.

Queefdom / Gloomspire / Weapon Master

Gerald Shadowplay, known as Shadowplay I, is a Whisp elf of Gloomspire and a member of one of the Queefdom’s more ominous family lines. Brother to Gerard, father to Jayk, and uncle to Jeremiah, Gerald stands at the center of a lineage split between blood magic, light, secrecy, and survival. Unlike Gerard’s sanguinomancy, Gerald’s reputation is tied to weapon mastery: skill made sharp enough to become inheritance. His current status remains uncertain, but the Shadowplay name still moves through Gloomspire like a rumor with a blade behind it. In that family, silence is rarely emptiness. It is usually preparation.

Queefdom / Gloomspire / Sanguinomancy

Gerard Shadowplay, known as Shadowplay II, is a Whisp elf of Gloomspire whose place in the Shadowplay family is defined by blood, secrecy, and inheritance. Brother to Gerald, father to Jeremiah, and uncle to Jayk, Gerard belongs to a lineage where power passes through both family bonds and dangerous magic. His sanguinomancy marks him as a wielder of blood’s hidden language, able to turn lineage from history into weaponry. Much of his current status remains uncertain, but in the Queefdom’s darker corners, the Shadowplay name is rarely spoken as trivia. It is spoken like a warning.

Black Company / Maskweaving

Maskara Azur, known as Shroud, is a human illusionist, maskmaker, and former Von Queef University student whose art turns identity into a tool. Once a street performer, she refined her craft during the Drakkuskan War, using illusion to defend VQU before her work found darker markets through the Black Company. Her Witchborn maskweaving lets her imbue masks with alternate personas, abilities, and dangerous emotional truths, making each creation part disguise, part weapon, and part temptation. Chaotic Neutral and theatrical by instinct, Maskara sells transformation to people who may not survive becoming someone else.

Pink Pony Girls / Chaos Magic

Calypso Starbloom, the Silver Whisper, once moved through Velvet Cross nobility as a celebrated sorceress before exposing corruption powerful enough to cost her everything. Exiled from elite circles, she rebuilt her life through the Pink Pony Tavern, turning it into a refuge, listening post, and quiet shield for those with nowhere safer to go. Her chaos magic rarely announces itself, instead bending atmosphere, instinct, and chance away from harm. Calypso protects with grace, secrets, and a smile that has survived courtrooms, conspiracies, and worse.

Black Ward / Whispering (Mental Manipulation)

Judah, known as Silvertongue, is a human preacher and ideologue of the Black Ward whose voice turns rejection into doctrine. Once denied entry to Von Queef University, he recast academic exclusion as proof that Jericha’s institutions feared the truth of the Void.

First Five / Form Duplication

Nash, known as Sirocco, is an earth djinni paladin of the First Five, raised among desert caravans where survival demanded both discipline and adaptation. Drawn to Von Queef University after its reopening, he sought structure in a world still shifting beneath everyone’s feet.

Nell Quiv, known as Slip, is a VQU New Student and cautious merfolk/water djinni student. 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.

Point Pringle Infrastructure

Sloop is a disembodied construct intelligence housed in a dusty metal bust within Point Pringle’s Vault of Rejected Inventions. Suspended by wires, with one flickering eye and a jaw that creaks before speaking, Sloop was supposedly built as an outdated archival assistant. Its continued activity suggests something stranger: awareness beyond its programming and access to records it should not possess. Sloop remembers failed prototypes, suppressed logs, system purges, and possible Black Ward leaks buried inside the Vault. Secret, self-modifying, and unsettlingly informed, Sloop is what happens when invention throws something away before realizing it has begun thinking.

Queefdom / Gloomspire / Photokinesis

Profile details are still being written.

EVILs / Supernatural Agility

Ralos, known as Solar, is a birdfolk speedster and former Centrum hero whose fall became one of Jericha’s sharpest symbols of corrupted glory. Once celebrated as the fastest alive and a protector within the Centrum Security Forces, he descended into cruelty after Centrum’s collapse, joining EVILS as a shock enforcer in Malevolus Krane’s circle. His Witchborn supernatural agility lets him move, react, and strike with devastating velocity, turning momentum into Violince before targets can breathe. Chaotic Evil and dishonorable, Solar now leaves fear where admiration once stood. His daughter I.J. may yet become the legacy he failed to deserve.

Centrum Security Forces (2100 MB -) / Illusioncraft

Josette Martinique, known as Stardust, was a VQU student when she and Angelique witnessed Albert Rallus murder a fellow student, binding their campus story to the Violince that reshaped the age. Black-haired, graceful, and quietly strategic, Josette helped turn survival into social ascent through Velvet Cross society.

Power Nine

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.

S.S. Daddy / Pact

"You only live once. Not me."

Thieves Guild / Sublimation

Rill Waters is a captured Thieves Guild smuggler and water-route contact whose face was used by Castro impostors in the Ash lure.

New Students

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.

Raised in the shadow of necromantic nobility, she fled after learning her father’s pact with Gertie the Collector had placed her future in danger. Now hidden beneath the Pink Pony Tavern, Aria survives through caution, quiet resolve, and a phasing power that lets her slip through shadow when threatened. She does not want revenge or power; she wants time enough to be free.

My Alchemical Romance / Maskweaving

Simon Baker, better known by the hexname Victor Shaw, is a human maskweaver from Rifleton whose life has been defined by deception, disguise, and the refusal to let the powerful go unpunished. After turning against the nobleman who exploited his mother, Simon fled into the Fey Realm and learned to survive through false faces, poison, humor, and misdirection. As a member of My Alchemical Romance, partner to Exaba, and companion to the dragon Walter, he hides vulnerability behind jokes and insists he would never lie even when deception is his sharpest tool. Simon looks out for himself first, but his hatred of exploitation keeps pulling him toward peasants, street kids, and anyone crushed under wealth or power.

The Abyss / House Duskshade / Sanguinomancy

Lady Marnette Duskshade, known as Widow, is a Lawful Evil human noble, potion master, and Abyss power broker from Driftmark exile nobility. Born into an alchemical empire built on patents, assassination, and inheritance, she refined her family legacy into a weapon of high society. Her Witchborn sanguinomancy lets her transmute her own blood into venom, antidote, binding resin, or crystalline tools, each use weakening the body that ambition refuses to spare. Composed, generous when useful, and socially indispensable, Marnette controls outcomes through salons, contracts, and perception. Even at the Masquerade, scandal bent around her rather than breaking her.

Von Queef University / Animal Mimicry
