History Characters / ChroniclesOfTheKencyrathPerimalDarkling

* {{Twincest}}: Twins and consorts. And thought we don't know exactly how their parents were related, we know they were born of a pairing between blood-kin.

* BrotherSisterIncest ({{Downplayed|Trope}}): It's said that his love for his half-sister, Jamethiel, was part of the reason he followed Gerridon. But it seems he was never more than a UnrequitedTragicMaiden, in that regard.

* SiblingTeam ({{Exaggerated|Trope}}): They're a group of full siblings, half-siblings, and half-siblings' half-siblings. When Gerridon fell, he enlisted his twin sister Jamethiel--though she didn't know what she was getting into. Their half-brother Tirandys elected to follow Gerridon, out of a combination of brotherly loyalty and being in love with Jamethiel. Tirandys's half-brother on the other side--who wasn't actually related to Gerridon and Jamethiel--followed Tirandys's example.

* ReallySevenHundredYearsOld: The two of them got much nicer immortality than the changers. Jamethiel's 3,000 years old, but looks like a fairly young woman. We haven't seen Gerridon's face yet, but he presumably still looks young too, as Immalai explained. Gerridon stayed young by consuming the reaped souls, and Jamethiel may have gotten the effects of that too because the souls were all filtered through her.

* {{Twincest}}
** It's a case of VillainousIncest {{Subverted|Trope}}. When you first hear about them, it sounds like pretty standard VillainousIncest--they are the most infamous people in the entire history of the Kencyrath, after all. But as the story goes on, you find out twincest was culturally sanctioned in their time, and very traditional. And while it's fallen out of popularity somewhat, incest still isn't shocking or unheard of.

Tirandys's half-brother on the other side--who wasn't actually related to Gerridon and Jamethiel--followed Tirandys's example.

** SixthRangerTraitor: Bender, the other brother who joined not by choice, but because Gerridon's holding his soul hostage

* SorcerousOverlord

* WifeHusbandry: Taking Jame in at age seven and bringing her up and training her so he can make her his replacement consort and immortality conduit.

* MyMasterRightOrWrong: Gerridon was her brother, her consort, and her lord.

* TheOphelia ({{Downplayed|Trope}}): By the time we meet her, Jamethiel isn't all there in the head, but she ''is'' ethereal, beautiful, and dangerous.

--->''"Mirrors aren't to your liking anymore, are they? We remember when they were, but that was millennia ago. Since then, you say, you have become immortal. The Mistress reaped souls to keep Gerridon of Knorth young; but you have gained your 'immortality' by coupling with the foulest shadows that creep in the farthest rooms of the Master's House, across the thresholds of a hundred fallen worlds. Now you crawl back to them whenever lust or severe injury drives you and find renewal in their arms."''
---->--'''Immalai'''

* BedTrick: He slept with Rawneth by pretending to be Greshan
* ColdBloodedTorture: Apparently a hobby of his--the Dark Judge is an example of his handiwork, and Jame would have been if Tirandys hadn't protected her.

-->'''Immalai''': But they warp you, Keral, body and soul, more and more each time. Even now you can no longer hold any true shape. Soon you will crawl on your belly like some pallid slug until your very bones liquefy. What price immortality then?

--->''"Poor Bender. He weakened for a moment, and his soul was stripped from him. Ever since, he has fought to regain it and to bring Gerridon to ruin; but the Master is stronger than he and keeps his soul hostage."''
---->--'''Tirandys'''

--->''Gerridon Highlord, Master of Knorth, a proud man was he. The Three People held he in his hand—Arrin-ken, Highborn, and Kendar—by right of birth and might. Wealth and power had he, and knowledge deeper than the Sea of Stars. But he feared death. "Dread lord," he said to the Shadow that Crawls, even to Perimal Darkling, ancient of enemies, "my god regards me not. If I serve thee, whilt thou preserve me, even to the end of time?"''
---->--'''"Jamethiel's lament"'''

-->'''"Jamethiel's lament"''': ''Then went my lord Gerridon to his sister and consort, the priestess Jamethiel Dream-Weaver, and said, "Dance out the souls of the faithful that darkness may enter in." And she danced. Two-thirds of the People fell that night, Highborn and Kendar."''

* RubberMan. Stretching oneself appears to be the first thing a Changer finds that they can do.

* VoluntaryShapeshifting: The Changers can shift their forms at will, and can take on the appearance of a specific human, especially if they drink their blood or otherwise ingest the substance of the target.

!The Twins

* OurZombiesAreDifferent: The Haunts, dead reanimated by Perimal Darkling, are pretty standard zombies: dying unburned in the Haunted Lands turns you into one, as does being bitten if the infection kills you. Singer Ashe, however, becomes a haunt through an infected bite and carries on as if nothing happened, although with insight into the world of the dead. And then we get a zombie ''salmon''...
