The Gang
Tanya Dogoro
- Anti-Hero: Type III.
- Half-Human Hybrid
- It Sucks to Be the Chosen One: Tanya is less than thrilled about being called Chosen One, or the training required of her, or the things she did.
- The Atoner: Tanya has plenty to feel guilty about, but the turning point for her was slaughtering an entire village right down to the last child trying to escape her. She let the girl run away upon realizing how much of a monster she had become.
- The Chosen One: Tanya, according to Anshuban Prophecy.
Zan Blackstone
- Anti-Hero: Type II.
- Dual Wielding: Switches to two swords when he somehow loses his first one.
- Jerk with a Heart of Gold: Cranky and sarcastic, offers his coat and refuses to look when Lune is freezing and needs to change out of her wet clothes.
- Noodle Incident: It's never explained how he lost his sword.
- Tall, Dark, and Snarky
- The One Guy: Not counting Muzok, he is surrounded by females.
Muzok
- Deadpan Snarker
- Hellish Huntrak: Muzok is part of a horse like species that is their carnivorous counterpart. He in particular has all black fur, red eyes, strong sabre teeth, split hooves and freakin’ sickle claws arming the inside of his front paws.
- Sapient Steed: And he uses the gift of thought to snark when possible.
Lune
- Dark Is Not Evil: She's a warlock, a weaver of misery, fire and demonic energy. She’s also level-headed, kind and not in the slightest bit evil.
- Glass Cannon
- Prophet Eyes: With her silvery eyes, unlike the rest of the Anshuban race.
Gwen
Antagonists
Yashir
- Ambiguously Evil: When discussing plans to destroy the Tiger Clan, completely in the face of how she fights, she looks down on an attack at night, deeming it lowly of warriors who are supposed to be based around 'honour.' She then proceeds to gleefully take part in a daylight attack with absolutely no remorse for the good men and women she's killing.
- Cool Mask: Wears one to cover the lower half of her face, it's described as "bladed."
- Nonhuman Humanoid Hybrid: She is half demon and half something else. The other half has yet to be revealed.
Kanile
- The Usurper: Once Tanya's mistake is brought to his attention.
Carren
- Bitch in Sheep's Clothing: Quiet, harmless, passive-aggressive backstabbing jerk.
Allies
Mardune Garleen
