* ComboPlatterPowers: Usually the setting is fairly strict on OnePersonOnePower. However, Yolanda Yewbeam is both a shapeshifter and a hypnotist, Manfred takes up pyrokinesis after losing his hypnotism (only to get his old power back and keep his new one), and Charlie is both a Picture Portal Person and a hereditary wizard, though the latter only becomes clear as the series progresses. Guanhamara, the Red King's third daughter, had at least four endowments: psychic power, illusions, spirit-summoning, and witchcraft. Possibly justified in that she was so closely related to the Red King, but then again her siblings only seem to have had one endowment a piece.
