Please note that I didn't write most of these, a friend of mine did.
I didn't bother to censor it, either, so.. ^.^;
Vanyel: Vanyel is the main character of the book. In book 1,
he pretty much acts like a selfish brat. He's 16 years old throughout
this book. When he gets shipped off to live with Savil, though, he
undergoes some drastic changes..
Savil: Vanyel's aunt, a Herald Mage. We start out seeing her as
being very sour towards Vanyel and more kind to Tylendel, but that all
changes..
Lord Withen: Vanyel's father, not very bright. He doesn't seem
to care about Vanyel very much, he's more interested in rasing a
suitable heir.
Lady Treesa: Vanyel's mother. A very, VERY big flirt.
Lissa: Vanyel's loving sister. She'd do anything to protect
him.
Radevel: Vanyel's cousin. Once again, not very bright, but still
nice.
Yfandes: Vanyel's Companion. She will be VERY important towards the
end of this book and later on.
Herald-Mage Jaysen: The Seneschal's Herald. This jerk of a Herald almost got
Vanyel killed, but don't blame him, he is not as strong willed as his fellow
Heralds, but he is still very helpful in the later series.
Herald-Mage Lancir: The Queen's Own. Feeling his age, Lancir is still a very
powerful man. He is also a mindhealer.
Taver: Lancir's Companion. What can I say.. this is a Companion.
Gala: Tylendel's Companion. This Companion belonged to Tylendel until she
repudiated him.
Felar: Jaysen's Companion. What can I say.. this is a Companion.
Moondance: Healer Adept and very powerful. Very compassionate.
Starwind: Adept and Moondances' shay'kreth'ashke or lifebonded. Very strong
willed.
Kellan: Savil's Companion. What can I say.. this is a Companion.
Hearld-Mage Trainee Merdic: Quick and preoccupied, doesn't talk much.
Hearld-Mage Trainee Donni: Kind and compassionate, helps Van through first
day.
Lord Evan Leshara: Evil dark
person...very good with words. politician all the way...
Bard Breda: Very kind and is very good at what she does...gets dazzle
headaches in last book.
Healer Andrel: Very kind and goes along with Savil's judgement. Was Savil's
lover a long time ago.
Hearld-Mage Tantras: rather even tempered. Strong of character
Delian: Tantras' Companion. Don't think Delian ever mindspoke...
Krebain: Kick ass Baddie. Not a good guy, sinuous, silky voice.
Bard Chadran: Spoke to Breda in hall about getting Van into Bardic.

Prostitute: Met at Inn on the way to Haven. No moral fiber what-so-ever.
Groom: Met when Star wasn't saddled for exile to Haven.

pages... jerk in first story, gets better through series.
