History Characters / KingsOfTheWyld

* KarmicDeath: After spending a long time profiting off of the death caused in the Maxithon, [[spoiler: she's crushed by the chimera during its fight with Saga alon with the Maxithon's destruction.]]

* CoolMount: He rides atop Ashatan, a huge wyvern matriarch.

* VillainHasAPoint: Characters concede that, in spite of his genocidal attitude, he's not wrong when he points out the cruelty humans have dealt anything that isn't them.

* TakenForGranite: As a gorgon, she has the ability to turn people to stone, though her basilisks can do the job as well.

* OurKolboldsAreDifferent: Here, they are diminutive rat-like beings that obsess over shiny things.

* FamousLastWords: [[spoiler: From Raff - "I'll be waiting for ya, Cooper, along with all the rest."]]

Matrick's wife and queen. It's abundantly clear that she has all the power in this relationship, and she isn't afraid to exploit that power at every opportunity. Maybe there might have been a spark once, but nowadays, she prefers to sire children with any handsome man that isn't her own husband. And worse, she's a-okay with Matrick dying if it means ascending in power.

Long ago, there was the Druin, a race of elf-like beings with rabbit ears who came from their own dimension to ours to conquer and enslave the primitive world. Unfortunately, their stunted breeding and a series of tragedies resulted in their numbers dwindling into the single digits. And among the remaining Druin is the former Duke of Endland, Lastleaf. Seeking vengeance on humanity for both surpassing the Druin and their treatment of monsters, Lastleaf will stop at nothing until he and his horde have snuffed out every last human around.

* GoodScarsEvilScars: He's got one across his left brow from where ''Vellichor'' slashed him.

* TragicVillain: He's ultimately lashing out at the world for having a father who wanted to kill him so that his wife could be brought back against her will once more, as well as the unfair treatment of non-humans.

!Other Notable Mercenaries

[[folder: Lady Jain]]

The leader of a band of thieves known as the Silk Arrows. Every encounter with Saga ends with our band getting robbed, but at the same time left with no incentive to stay mad at such free-spirited and polite thieves.

* AffablyEvil: Yes, Jain and company are criminals, but they have a good code of honor, and are so cordial about it that Clay isn't too perturbed when they're left penniless. In fact, calling Jain evil feels like an exaggeration.
* AmazonBrigade: Her all-female Silk Arrows are masterful archers, and there isn't a single encounter that doesn't end in her favor.
* FriendlyEnemy: To the point where Saga's willing to have breakfast with her before getting robbed again.
* HeelFaceTurn: She and her Silk Arrows become a legitimate mercenary band after spending enough time with Saga.

Gabe's wife. She's...not entirely pleased with the direction his life went.

In the glory days of Saga, Matrick was the most feared person to ever wield a pair of knives. He was also already making bad decisions by being a major womanizer and and even worse drunkard. Eventually, his life spiraled in a rather unexpected direction. He became a king, and a pretty decent one at that. The bad news is that his queen would much rather sire children with literally everyone else and try to assassinate him for power. So when Saga comes knocking, he throws himself into his old band to get away from his gilded cage.

* BladeEnthusiast: See KnifeNut below.

* KnifeNut: His twin daggers, ''Grace'' and ''Roxy'', named after the first prostitutes he ever had. With them, he's still got it.

* WomenAreWiser: One of the saner characters in the cast.

* {{Foil:}} To Ginny. Both married a member of Saga, and they both don't want their daughters to grow up and be warriors. But while Ginny handles it in a stern yet even-tempered way that speaks to the trust he has in Clay to do right by her, Valery responded near-instantly by lashing out and leaving Gabe the moment Rose started getting into fights.
