4	[[WMG: Raffael Morel]]
5	Raffi is a scholar in the Order and Galen's apprentice. He was apprenticed at age 8 and has never known a world in which the Order has not been persecuted.
6	----
7	* TheApprentice: To Galen. [[spoiler:And the Margrave.]]
8	* BreakTheBeliever: Subjected to it by the Margrave, but he's not quite as breakable as it thought.
9	* CowardlyLion: Justified in that he and Galen really will be tortured to death if the Watch ever catches them.
10	%%* GrewASpine
11	%%* StudentAndMasterTeam: The student.
12
13	[[WMG: Galen Harn]]
14	Relic Master of the Order and downright zealot. Since the Order fell he has been on the run from the Watch, and he sees it as his sacred duty to guard the relics and preach to the people.
15	----
16	%%* BadassPreacher
17	* DeathSeeker: Starts the series like this thanks to being [[{{Depower}} depowered]]. He gets better.
18	%%* GoodIsNotNice
19	%%* JerkWithAHeartOfGold
20	* KnightInSourArmour: He has basically no empathy for anyone and secretly fears that his gods have abandoned him and the Order will be completely wiped out, but continues with his obligations as a keeper anyway.
21	* MartyrWithoutACause: If the Order weren't persecuted, rest assured he'd find some other way to get himself martyred.
22	* TheOathBreaker: Swears a revenge oath in ''Coronet'', but ends up breaking it in ''Margrave'' due to ThouShaltNotKill.
23	* TheChosenOne: The Crow chooses him to live in, and ultimately to mend the world.

29	----
30	%%* ActionGirl: Thanks to her Watch training.
31	* BadassNormal: She has none of the Order's powers, but is the most effective out of the main group.
32	* DoubleReverseQuadrupleAgent: Spends a long time figuring out whose side she's actually on, and works with whoever suits her best in the meantime.
33	* WhyDidItHaveToBeSnakes: Really hates wasps.
34
35	[[WMG: The Sekoi]]
36	A member of the enigmatic cat-like Sekoi race, it starts the story as an itinerant storyteller and thief whom Galen and Raffi are sent to find, but chooses to join and follow them on their adventures once it realizes their quest is religious in nature.
37	----
38	* BlueBlood: Is apparently of high standing among the Sekoi.
39	* CardSharp: Possibly cheats, possibly is just that good.
40	%%* CatFolk
41	* FantasticRacism: It hates MixAndMatchCritters.
42	%%* GoldFever: The Sekoi [[PlanetOfHats hat]].
43	%%* HumanoidAliens
44	* ItIsDehumanizing: In an interesting case, the ''characters'' use "he", but the ''narrative'' uses "it", possibly to emphasize that it's still an alien after all.
45	* MySpeciesDothProtestTooMuch: Is weirdly friendly with the humans for a Sekoi, and even betrays their second-most-significant cultural ideal by taking the humans to the Hoard.
46	%%* TheStoryteller

58	----
59	%%* HealingHands
60	%%* HighPriest: The Archkeeper
61	* PhysicalScarsPsychologicalScars: Is certainly traumatized from what the Watch did while they had him captive. [[spoiler: And from getting possessed by the Margrave.]]
62	* ScarsAreForever: Has scars on his hands from Watch torture.
63	* SurvivorsGuilt: "I escaped. Sometimes that too is hard to forgive.”

68
69	[[WMG: The Margrave]]
70	* TheAgeless: All evidence points to it being biologically immortal.
71	* BigBad: Functions as such from ''Heiress'' to ''Margrave''.
72	* DayHurtsDarkAdjustedEyes: Abnormally and permanently sensitive to light.
73	* HalfHumanHybrid: Partly human, [[spoiler:partly Sekoi]], partly some other stuff.
74	* ItIsDehumanizing: Probably the reason it's only ever called "it", considering that it probably does have a sex [[spoiler: like the Sekoi do.]]
75	%%* RedemptionEqualsDeath: Is still killed at the end.
76	* SpellMyNameWithAThe: Margrave is a title, and it doesn't seem to have another name.
77	* WasOnceAMan: "[Kest's] last experiment, they say, was on a man." [[spoiler: Just because they say it doesn't make it true; it was a Sekoi instead.]]
78
79	[[WMG: Quist]]
80	%%* ArmourPiercingQuestion: Very good at giving these.
81	* ConvertingForLove: Inverted. He leaves his faith for love.

83	* FaithHeelTurn: Used to be in the Order before joining up.
84	* FightsLikeANormal: Barely touches his powers, preferring to rely on Watch tactics.

88	----
89	* ChildSoldiers: She was trained as one by the Watch.

92	[[/folder]]
93
94	[[folder:The Makers]]
95	The beings the Order worships, and whom they believe created the world and everything in it. They play a role somewhere between gods and apostles in Order theology.

103	* MotherlyScientist: The Margrave considers Kest its father.
104	%%* NeglectfulPrecursors
105	* OnlyOneName: We never find out any of their last names, and it's likely the Order has forgotten them.
106	* ProfessorGuineaPig: Implied by the Margrave, without details.
107	* SuicideByCop: Kest thinks he'll die fighting the Dragon, and he does.
108	%%* ScaleOfScientificSins: Hit sins 3, 5, and 7. Order tradition has them achieve immortality as well.%%Explain.

110	%%* {{Terraforming}}: Their ultimate goal.
111	%%* WeUsedToBeFriends
