Betsuni is a strange, almost double personality in the saga. She is a Necromancer but she certainly doesn't act like you would think a Necro should. She is humorous and out going. She sometimes palls around with Idlewild and jokingly calls Idlewild her rival. She seems to enjoy flirting with the Shadow Knight Daigon but never talks openly about any feelings she may have for him. Upon closer examination she is revealed to be quite complicated, putting that cheerful personality forward so that no one knows or suspects her. She is really quite mysterious and guarded, never letting anyone get close. Idlewild often tries talking with her 'friend' to find out more about her. In the end Idlewild concludes that Betsuni's true character is nothing more than a frightened child who hides her face so that she can achieve her goals without consequence.


Idlewild is a cynical, wary Necromancer, which is surprising since she is Bijo's little sister. As the story goes, Idlewild never had a taste for the Clerical arts. When she found out her mother had been a Necromancer she was filled with curiosity. When her mother died she ran away to Qeynos and joined the Necromancers of Bertoxxulous. She immersed herself within that world, and has emerged a crafty character indeed. She has welcomed Vicari's protection and friendship; and though she doesn't understand how or why, she's become a type of role model for Kawari Nightsbane. Her relationship with Kawari slowly reconnects her with the human race. She also shares a strange yet respectful relationship with the Paladin Lance. As she grows older Idlewild slowly becomes more and more concerned over her relationship with her sister.


Lance is a straight forward Paladin of Karana. He enjoys sharing knowledge and experiences, and so he decided to mentor young Donovon. The truth is he will care for and protect anyone who needs him. He meets Idlewild and Kawari in the Qeynos catacombs while he and Donovon are hunting. The two Paladins had gotten lost and were quite happy to see someone else. He feels indebted to Idlewild for her kindness in leading them through that mess. Because of this simple act on Idlewild's part Lance becomes convinced that she is a good person despite the image Idlewild portrays. Even after discovering her class of Necromancer the two share a mutual respect that eventually turns into a strange friendship.


Donovon is a young Paladin who has been Lance's pupil for quite some time. Donnovon's parents were good friends with Lance, and so, when the young man decided to become a Paladin, Lance took him under his wing. Though Donnovon has reached an age where he could adventure on his own, he prefers to stay with Lance. He claims that he has learned much from Lance and feels as though he still has much to learn. He is very cautious, and prefers to think things through.


Daigon is an experienced Shadow Knight of Bertoxxulous. He roams about the land that surrounds Qeynos freely, and gives little thought to whose path he may be crossing. He often flirts with Betsuni and enjoys her flirting back; however, he finds Idlewild's fierce independence attractive as well. Not much is really known about this ellusive character. And you will only ever know exactly what he wants you to know...but who could say if it were actually true?


Cohanna is a sheltered Cleric who's parents decided she'd become a Priestess of Rodcet Nife. Cohanna claims that all her ancestors have been Clerics and that's why her parents signed her up. Unfortunately, even with all her educated study, Cohanna isn't that successful of a Cleric. She can barely cast spells and even when she can they aren't terribly effective. The high priest has evaluated her time and again but even he cannot find any error in her techniques.
