[[folder:Erin]]
[[quoteright:350:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/magnificent_bastard_8.png]]
->''"Fortunately for the Academy, I am just as eager to discover what lies at the center of the Storm as anyone in the research division. And as I am the Elemental Magus, I am capable of accomplishing this grand endeavor with minimal risk."''
The present-day Elemental Magus (a human mage capable of controlling all six known elements) who intends on finding what lies at the center of the famously treacherous Storm of Magic. His full name is Erin Ruunaser.

* CaptainsLog: Chapter 4 opens with writings in his journal about the Storm, eventually leading to his grand introduction and the start of his journey.

-->'''Erin:''' AND '''STAY''' OUT!!
* EarlyBirdCameo: He's first introduced at the start of Chapter 4 before being formally introduced to the protagonists mid-way through Chapter 5.
* FightingFromTheInside: After Kendal first meets him while he's possessed, he manages to scream at him to run before being taken control of again.
* PowerTattoo: He has tattoos forming intricate patterns and symbols on both of his arms. They are meant to help channel magic to create more powerful spells, and part of the right arm tattoo pulses with electricity when he uses lightning magic.
* SmugSuper: Is he ever. He takes immense pride in being the Elemental Magus, and the abilities it grants him.
--> '''Erin:''' ...nobody has ever seen what lies at the center of the storm. Of course, this is because ''I've'' never tried.
--> '''Erin:''' ''(while writing in his journal)'' Hm. They didn't like it when I used "phenomenal natural talent" last time.

[[AC:Races]]
[[folder:Humans]]
[[quoteright:350:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/screenshot_2019_11_01_at_94827_am.png]]
[[caption-width-right:350:Humans and human offshoots.]]
One of the three Elder Races and the most versatile of the three.

* AmbiguouslyHuman: As seen in the picture, some humans have evolved quite a bit since the beginning in response to elemental extremes, so it's debatable whether some offshoots can still be considered human.
* FishPeople: One sub-species, the Sekrai, are ocean dwellers.
* HumanSubspecies: There are many, including Stonekin and Ironhill.
* HumansAreSpecial: By virtue of being so adaptable, also also producing the most powerful mages.

[[folder:Elves]]
[[quoteright:350:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/screenshot_2019_11_01_at_94906_am_6.png]]
[[caption-width-right:350:Major elf sub-species.]]
Another Elder Race with tendencies to be more strongly composed of wind and lightning. They generally are either Wind or Storm Elves, with a few smaller minority groups.

* {{Demihuman}}: They look very similar to humans, though admittedly the definition of "human" in this world is pretty flexible...
* OurElvesAreBetter: Averted. Elves in this world generally live alongside humans and most have no problem befriending or even marrying and having children with them. Though they live somewhat longer than humans, they are a lot less durable and versatile.
* PointyEars: All elves have these (Alinua included) though how long or wide they are depends on which sub-species they are.

[[folder:The Ancients]]
[[quoteright:350:https://static.tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pub/images/screenshot_2019_11_01_at_94925_am.png]]
[[caption-width-right:350:Drawing of an Ancient next to a human and an elf.]]
The third and final Elder Race, who lived on the surface while elves and humans were still living in the Singing Caves, but have long since died off.
----
* NotSoExtinct: They're not completely extinct, since some elves and humans boast traces of Ancient blood.
[[/folder]]

* LightIsNotGood: She's a life mage -- a type of magic stereotypically associated with healing and goodness -- but uses her magic to create monsters and is also the comic's main villain.

The present-day Elemental Magus-- that is to say, human mage capable of controlling all six known elements, who intends on finding what lies at the center of the famously treacherous Storm of Magic. His full name is Erin Ruunaser.

The third and final Elder Race, by now extinct.

* PowerIncontinence: Her birthmark designates her as a carrier of the Chimeric Plague, an extremely powerful form of life magic that in the past has always killed its host within the first few years of life and drastically mutated anyone who had the misfortune of being near when this occured. She specifically isolated herself as to minimize potential damage when she did lose control. [[spoiler:However, her strange transformation in Chapter 3 apparently grants her much more control over her powers.]]

* MeaningfulRename: He chooses the name "Kendal" (meaning "right hand") for himself because it's also what Vash named his sword, this defining himself as a living weapon in service to Vash.

* EyeColourChange: When she uses her powers, her eyes shift from silver to green. [[spoiler:After her strange transformation in Chapter 3, they are permanently green.]]

* BirthmarkOfDestiny: Alinua has an intricate green mark on her arm that she says carries the Chimeric Plague. One person born with such a mark ended up destroying a large percentage of his community.

* ExpressiveEars: Her pointy ears droop or life depending on her emotional state.

* GreenThumb: She has plant/life-based powers, and meditates by encouraging plant growth.

* YourDaysAreNumbered: Alinua says it's only a matter of time before she loses control of her powers and it kills her, and it's a miracle she made it past the age of five.

->''"I was born with the [[PowerTattoo mark]]. [[BlessedWithSuck I carry the Chimeric Plague]]. I'm a life mage. I...healed you, and I shaped this tree. But the power has a mind of its own, and it's only getting [[PowerIncontinence harder to keep in check]]. It'll get stronger and stronger until I lose control entirely."''

-->"Nobody dies. Not for me. Not ever."

-->"But if they're a danger to the town, we have to do something. And if they need help, I- I can't just leave them."

* DemonicPossession: Does this to take a physical form, such as Icarus.

[[caption-width-right:350:The first cloudchild we meet.]]

->''"WHAT HAVE YOU DONE?!"''

* PowerTattoo: He has tattoos forming intricate patterns and symbols on both of his arms. They seem to be related to his status as an Elemental Magus, as part of the right arm tattoo pulses with electricity when he uses lightning magic.

* PuppyDogEyes: Made these in Ch. 5, probably unintentionally.

* DidYouJustFlipOffCthulu: His response to the dark being retreating further into him?

* SmugSuper: Is he ever. He takes immense pride in being one of the Elemental Magi, and the abilities it grants him.
