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

characterCynthiana 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.
characterRetyunskikh 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.
characterBarney 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.
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.
characterSaphira 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.
characterOrval Finkus is the performative Colonel of Root Barrel Farm, a suspect protector of Castro-displaced dragonborn workers and a contact in Havyk's demon-debt thread.

characterM. A. I. C. E. , self-named ENEMI, was engineered in the M. A. I. Experiments as a hexelf weapon built for chaotic supremacy. Born from void infusion and mutation design, he survived by eliminating rival alignment-coded variants and claiming command of EVILS.
characterNick 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.
characterDiarmaid, 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.
characterRemington 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.
characterGeneral — 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.
characterTitian, 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.
characterJacey Fox, known as Hood, is a human outlander and ranger whose survival is bound to the thing that destroyed her life. After a wolf killed her family, Jacey did not simply become a hunter of beasts; her Witchborn Eidolon Bond tied her to that same predator, turning trauma into a living, stalking presence she can never fully escape. She moves through the wilds with patience, suspicion, and the hard knowledge that vengeance does not always arrive cleanly. Hood’s story is not about mastering nature, but enduring the bond between grief and instinct until one finally teaches the other how to survive.
characterMaine — M. A. I. N. E. is a Hexelf/forged survivor of the M. A. I. experiments whose Whispering, warlock path, and detective instincts make them both investigator and living evidence of Centrum’s hidden failures.
characterM. 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.

characterBorn Rahab on the Timber Islands, Musk was a daughter of love and laughter who left home chasing adventure. Instead, she found captivity under Malevolus Krane, who twisted her biology into a weapon, and cruelty under Solar, who mocked her pain. She survived both, emerging furious and unbowed.
characterMarnie Rootbarrel, known as Mycelia, is a halfling spore druid and guardian of the Glow Pools, where broken bodies, strange fungi, and arcane corruption all find their way into the soil.
characterKuovena 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.

characterElara Brasschain, known as Professor, is a human artificer and academic whose name carries the weight of tools, theory, and family craft. Though the records preserve only the outline of her life, that outline suggests a builder-scholar shaped by precision: someone who treats invention as both discipline and responsibility. As a professor, Elara likely stands between workshop and classroom, translating dangerous mechanisms into lessons before they become disasters. The Brasschain name hints at metalwork, constraint, and connected parts, all fitting for a mind that sees systems where others see scraps. In Jericha, even a quiet professor can be the hinge on which larger machines turn.
characterGaz 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.
characterProfessor Lyra Allorin was once a celebrated alchemist of Von Queef University, known for transmutation research and a sincere belief that alchemy could improve lives. Her work ended in catastrophe when a shimmering reagent experiment destroyed her Gravenhurst lab and killed her, leaving her spirit bound to the Shimmering Bridge. Now a ghostly high elf presence of flickering lights, melodic hums, and drifting alchemical sigils, Lyra offers warnings to seekers who respect dangerous knowledge. Her guilt keeps her from peace, but so does purpose: somewhere in her lost formula may be the secret to stabilizing power that can rewrite reality.
characterProfessor Whitcombe is an elderly retired Witchborn bard and market energy analyst working in the Djeebus Research Archive’s Market Archive Wing. With floating spectacles, half-spectral hair, and a rune-stitched cloak that misbehaves when observed, he studies commerce as if it were weather, music, and prophecy at once. Whitcombe tracks civic trade, crowd mood, faction spending, and economic hesitation as arcane currents, arguing that markets may behave with something close to collective instinct. True Neutral and obscure by choice, he does not predict collapse through visions. He listens for it in the price of bread, steel, favors, and fear.
characterFelix Anthony, known as Prototype, is the Hexelf founder and supreme figurehead of FLESH, a failed survivor of the M. A. I. experiments who turned abandonment into ideology. To his followers, he is proof that flesh must reclaim supremacy from forged bodies, constructs, and the institutions that made them.
characterCailleach 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.
characterGullie Wave, known as Ripple, is a fae-touched human sorcerer from Willowhearth whose magic moves with the same restless sparkle as her personality. Clever, impulsive, and fiercely independent, she uses illusioncraft, charm, and misdirection to turn danger into something confused, glowing, and easier to escape.
characterAlison 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.
characterJudah, 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.
characterRalos, 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.

characterJosette 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.
characterSister Ylthwyn, called The Elder, is the second Sister Treant: a Power Nine deity of decay, endings, and the sacred work of returning all things to the soil. She is worshiped not as cruelty, but as necessary truth. Fallen trunks, fungal crowns, compost, old bones, and buried ruins all belong to her scripture. Ylthwyn teaches that nothing living can grow forever without surrender, and that rot is not failure but transformation. Rural faiths honor her at funerals, failed harvests, and the collapse of false permanence. In her roots, every ending becomes nourishment.
characterVithyrex, known as The Eye, is the cyclopean deity of the Power Nine who embodies obsession, focus, and singular vision. Dwelling within the Singular Maze, he constructs labyrinths not to confuse wanderers, but to strip away distraction until only one truth remains. Where Trixie scatters chance and the Aboleth preserves all memory, Vithyrex narrows the world to purpose, stone, and fixation. Architects, maze cults, extremists, and certain Lawful sects invoke him when clarity becomes more sacred than mercy. His gaze can steady, harden, or consume. To follow The Eye is to see one path—and lose sight of every other.
characterSister Vessina, called The Younger, is one of the Sister Treants: a Power Nine deity of growth, renewal, and living return. Where forests push through old roads and wounded soil sprouts green again, Vessina’s presence is felt in saplings, blossoms, root networks, and the stubborn mercy of regrowth.

characterSimon 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.
characterEllenthyra Mew, known as Vigor, is a catfolk VQU New Student from the Temple of the Equinox Vale. In Act 5 near Root Barrel Farm, she appeared with Zetch and Nell Quiv after the trio looted a cave and argued over a legendary wand; she recognized Ash Stonefist from the monastery and discussed leaving the Temple while following Albert Rallus’s path from monkhood toward greater power.
characterWhisperstep — Exaba is Trixie’s satyr paragon and collector, a chaotic agent whose life is tangled in cruel games, temporal errands, missing memories, and the lingering damage of Gertie’s forgetfulness curse.

characterZeus Beefcake is an undead Gigas introduced by Baron von Queef as New VQU's powerful second-in-command and part of the Ex Force reveal.
characterFaephine 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.
characterCalithea 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.

characterEvan Pistachio is one of Dhaz Pelosh’s old Stormcall experiment-class peers, altered enough to carry an electric staff and terrified enough of Lawful attention to flee even from apparent rescue.
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.
characterZiki Snout is a magical polar bear from Svarsbard traveling with Baba Snout in search of Princess Hummus Snout, the polar bear cub known as P.B.
characterGumbo is a halfling clothier and adventurer who joined the Aleklotson Inn dungeon tour alongside Jeremiah Shadowplay and My Alchemical Romance. Practical, opportunistic, and interested in exotic materials, Gumbo saw dragon parts as potential fashion resources.
characterAerobud is a wounded dog-like aerokinetic critter found near the alternate Bearfell road after a directed mountain gust nearly pushed the caravan off-road.
characterThorn is a traveling road merchant and scammer who exploited rumors of green dragons near Aleklot’s Rest by selling weak “acid resistance healing potions.”
characterFavre is a traveling merchant associated with Thorn on the road to Aleklot’s Rest, helping sell weak anti-acid concoctions under exaggerated green-dragon panic.

itemWhile wearing the ring, when you drink a healing potion, regain additional HP by potion tier: Basic +1d4, Greater +2d4, Superior +3d4, Supreme +4d4. Only affects healing potions.
itemYou gain a +2 bonus to Religion checks. When you use a spell of 1st level or higher to restore hit points to yourself or an ally, you restore a bonus action you have already expended on that turn. Recommended guardrail: this can occur once per turn, cannot store more than one bonus action, and does nothing unless the wearer already spent a bonus action. It triggers from actual hit point restoration, not temporary hit points or healing a creature already at full hit points.
itemWhen attuned, healing another creature with a spell of 1st level or higher may add 1d8 to one healing roll; Jonah takes radiant damage equal to the extra hit points restored. Once per long rest, cast Healing Word as a reaction when a nearby creature drops to 0 hit points.
itemA historical artifact and in-world source rather than a combat item. Reading or citing the journal can provide context on Drakkuskan War-era travel, early student adventuring, cult activity, dragonborn involvement, relic rumors, old routes, and people who later became Centrum figures. Exact dates should be treated as provisional when newer canon disagrees.

locationBearfell is the rugged route-town where Temple Ironhoof confirmed Astrid's family connection, revived Evan, and turned an attempted handoff into proof that Lawful fear follows people even after rescue.
locationObsidian Fang is a sharp Timber Island landmark where black stone, old violence, and hidden predatory power make the southern routes feel watched.
