The pretty male prostitute at a brothel called Heavenly Bodies. Despite not being human, he prefers the simple lifestyle as compared to the glamour that other Emphyraes have to keep up, and thus moved to the small human-inhabited town of Anjelinn as opposed to staying on his nearby home mountain. His peaceful life has lately been interrupted by a human child and a certain sevgimoren trying to pair him up.
Carnivore Confusion: Epsylon calls him out on not "maiming and eating him and Deimy". Ancell just shrugs and says that blackwings don't taste particularly good in his opinion and he's better off hunting something else.
Did Not Do the Research: Just went and bought a driezelik as a pet, not taking into account that they grow up pretty big and can be very dangerous. Fails to understand this even when he comes in contact with wild adult ones.
Heroic Bastard: A rare Emphyrae subversion; His parents are happily together and connected by the best equivalent of marriage the Emphyraes have, when not marrying is the norm. Apo sometimes makes fun of him for this.
The Nicknamer: Deimy is simply Blackwing, Cecily is Halfblood at first, Epsy is Blondie, Nia is Pinkhead and Gil would be Shorty if she didn’t threaten to shoot him if he called her that. He also nicknames one of the sevgimoren soldiers Butterfly because of his Sevardenian wings and crazy hair, and that nickname sticks with the rest of the group too.
The son of a Guidance diplomat mother and a medical chief father who ended up as a borderline-Shell-Shocked Veteran after serving as a war medic, Deimos has always been quite a loner while his parents were too busy to give him enough attention. He is clumsy and shy, yet well-meaning and always polite. His loneliness only took a turn for the worse when other Sevgimoren kids started labelling him as a pathetic loser at school, and things on the social field aren't much better now that he's long since graduated... But at least he is not bullied anymore. At least not as much.
Actual Pacifist: He doesn't want to hurt another living being, even when his own life is at stake. He even has the chance to grab a weapon to defend himself from possible death, but refuses and has to be saved by his friends instead.
Boys Love Stuffed Animals: Oh his homemade plush toy Spesa and the tragic story behind its destruction.
Break the Cutie: Survived years of school bullying, but it lead to his trust problems and a fear of getting touched,not to mention destroyed his self confidence.
Driven to Suicide: Twice during his school time, both obviously failed; First time he tried to overdose on his medicine and only managed to get really sick, the second he tried to escape from Mt.Lyskeres to get killed by Emphyraes.
Flower Motifs: His favourite flower is the kwipion, which is also a common symbol of love.
Friendless Background: Well, not completely, as he did have one or two friends, but he was afraid to let anyone too close to him in fear that they would get bullied too.
Green-Eyed Monster: Used to be like this toward Epsy, when he had lots of friends at school.
Lonely Together: The reason he and Windir became friends was that they both lacked friends. They did end up being genuine friends later, even though they didn't really keep in touch after Windir moved to the far away land of Sazadia.
No Social Skills: Subverted, as he is polite and well-mannered when he speaks. It's just that he's so afraid of screwing up and people thinking that he's some sort of a weirdo, so he doesn't gladly talk to anyone.
Oblivious to Love: Because he is already three years over pairing age and has already had his heart broken once, he has now shut his heart to the thought that anyone could be into him that way.
Red String of Fate: He uses them to pair people up, as opposed to the usual bow and arrow technique sevgimori are fond of. The reason he rejects it has to do with his pacifism.
Single-Target Sexuality: Almost, as he is a demisexual(Only feels sexual and romantic feelings for people he knows well enough, and not even all of them). He has had a total of one such person before he falls for Epsy.
The Smart Guy: His booksmartness saves the group more than once. However, he has trouble on the social field, can't understand sarcasm at all and his streetsmarts are also questionable.
The So-Called Coward: He proves out to be a huge help to the team, even though he doesn't fight... Let's just say he's good with his words once he gathers the courage to speak.
Speech Impediment: S-stutters quite a bit, especially when with people he doesn't know or otherwise insecure, which is a lot. He can almost rid it if he concentrates but it's still there.
Token Good Team Mate: Ancell is the one with jerkass loner qualities, Ceci is a bit too enthusiastic to beat things up, and Epsy still shows some jerk tendencies once in a while. Yeah, he's definitely the nicest out of them.
Cecily Marrain
An unfortunate result of a forbidden romance between an Emphyrae and a Sevgimoren. She was supposed to get killed as soon as the Emphyrae soldiers found her at the age of 15, but something delayed the execution and she is still chained to the back gate of Mt. Sanfare. Although she has had her fair share of suffering, she stays positive and dreams that one day she can be free again.
Action Girl: When choosing weapons, she is the one to enthusiastically grab the big, cool sword in a heartbeat... Even though she's too weak to carry it well.
Hey, You! -> First Name Basis: Ancy refuses to call her anything else than "Halfblood" at first. Granted, she does the same to him, calling him "Whore".
An artistic sevgimoren who used to be a big bully in his youth and was one of the kids responsible of making Deimy's life miserable. He has since matured and is nowadays quite a decent person overall, if not still unable to show his real feelings well and too influenced by his still immature and mean friends like Tialdre.
Acrophobic Bird: Avoids flying because it takes concentration off of keeping his hair blonde and because he is slightly acrophobic, but mostly the former reason.
Apologizes a Lot: Apparently saying his apologizes to Deimy once properly is just not enough, so he keeps spouting small ones. Deimy doesn't listen until muuuch later in the story.
The Archer: Uses a bow and arrows borrowed from Tialdre as his weapon.
Hair of Gold: His real hair colour is a bright red, being a Sevgimoren after all, but he keeps it blonde to appear "hotter" and "more special". His hair turns into its normal colour when he's scared, angry, very sad, concentrating on something else or asleep.
Heel Realization: Had one shortly after Deimy’s speech that he gave on his final school day.
Theme Naming: He and his three brothers, all related to numbers somehow; Epsylon comes from Eps(last) and Yon(4) (Lymne), Darnor's artist name Roma means 9, which is the symbol of luck and wealth in Lymne, and the two older brothers also have to do with numbers although it's not intentional on their parents' part: Seventhias and Trianos.
A bartender at The Lair, a bar for Emphyraes, in Anjelinn. Ancell's best friend, who is good with the ladies. He is a big racist towards anything not Emphyrae, to the point of harassing the poor Sevgimori in his free time, before killing them using unnecessary violence.
Cool Shades: Yeah they're eyeglasses, but they have a cool green tint! Or at least the one lense that is showing.
Disappeared Dad: Both his and Zenobios's fathers were random guys with no real connection to their mother. Neither probably even know that they have children.
Super Persistent Predator: Will settle to human meat or even buy his food from a store if necessary, but will always go for Sevgimori if it's not completely impossible.
Tough Love: His mother only ever cared if he got good grades.
Still got Parental Favoritism compared to Zeno, who didn't care for school or his mother's rules altogether.
A six-winged Emphyrae who is, because of his unusual amount of wings and unbelievably long lifespan, thought of as a physical god and worshipped all over the Emphyraen community. He believes in Emphyraen purity over anything else and makes even the biggest racists such as Apollyon look innocent in comparison.
Asexuality: He had his 7+ children just because he needed sons to take care of his countries (Graciene and Holymni) when he's dead. [[Immortality If he dies, that is.]]
Elderly Immortal: His immortality makes his soul immortal, and was supposed to make his body immortal too until its cause, the evil little magic stone, started giving him unexpected symptoms such as actually letting his body age and gruesomely scarring his whole back digging itself out.
God Is Evil: Oh, some Emphyraes want to "purify" Graciene of Sevgimori? Of course, that sounds like a wonderful idea! And what's this? A halfblood has been freed by one of us? Yeah, let's send some soldiers after them. They deserve death for such behaviour.
Immortality: All the media makes him look much younger and he also wears makeup and sun masks for that purpose when appearing to his people, to make them think that he's a Type I. He's really Type VII.
Which brings us to Immortality Immorality type 1. It is a special stone carved deep into his back by his will that gives him the immortality, but with what a price...
The leader and conductor of the Emphyraen war choir, and thus one of the highest ranked females in their patriarchal society. She is pretty sadistic and uncaring for others feelings, and her god's will always comes first in her book, but hides this behind a nicer cover when facing the people and even her enemies, at first.
Never a Self-Made Woman: Although she does get quite angry if someone dares to imply that her grandfather was the only reason that she got chosen as the war conductor, which is not true in the slightest as Sceledes is also very fond of her cunning ability and strength and enthusiasm in battle. Makes sense, though, because many of the Emphyraes firmly believe that women should Stay in the Kitchen.
Tomboy: Used to be one, and even hunted her own meals while it is usually men’s job, just to go against the idea that girls aren't supposed to do that. Is still among the only females in the Emphyraen army who fight (The war choir has lots of women but they basically just sing), but has figured out an another way to stay succesful amongst all the men.
The wardrummer and his pet, a big female urcanis. Lothario is very aloof and does not desire any sort of contact with other Emphyraes or anyone else for that matter, but stays with the army because that is pretty much everything his life consists of. Kriegaro on the other hand might appear scary, but she is trained not to harm Emphyraes and is actually a nice big fluffy thing... Sevgimori and other species are adviced to keep distance, however.
Angsty Surviving Twin: His twin Caleidos, who was extremely fascinated by Sevgimori and loved the species in an abnormal way for Emphyraes, got killed by a Sevgimoren attack group. As he was the only person Lothario has ever felt a connection to, he was broken.
A bratty young sevgimoren girl, who thrives to be a mighty emphyraehunter one day. She is short and babyfaced, something that she hates about herself so much.
Invisibility: Brought even further by her "Perfect Vanish" spray that makes her completely unnoticeable even to Emphyraes who could otherwise sense her.
It's Personal: An Emphyrae killed her big brother Jalett. Turns out it was even Apollyon, her archenemy.
Just a Kid: Hates receiving this so much it actually brings her to the bringe of tears.
An usually grumpy sevgimoren who, along with Epsylon, used to be a big bully, and still kind of is. Unlike his best friend, he tends to be more violent and less verbally oriented in his ways. Used to be a big rebel when he was younger, but has calmed down a little.
Heteronormative Crusader: Seems like one. In reality, doesn't really care as long as Niati is and stays straight. I mean, his best friend is gay and he knows it very well. He's not blind.
Momma's Boy: His mother had a severe medical condition which caused her to die while giving birth to his brother Niati when Tia himself was 14. This caused him to beat up and mock others to make sure he's not the only one feeling bad. Subverted by the fact that he has always been quite popular despite of being so devoted to his mother even after her death.
Morality Pet: Niati, and his good friend Vixenne, both of which he truly, deeply cares about.
Tialdre's treasured little brother. He is also a decent archer, mostly inspired by his big brother's skill, and uses a crossbow. He loves fashion and cute things..
Ancell's little sister who lives on Mt. Sanfare and takes care of Velox who Ancy couldn't take with him to Anjelinn. Although she is supportive toward her brother, she can sometimes snap at him. Quite hard.
A guard at the back gate of Mt.Sanfare who is still quite new to his job and thus insecure, especially since it's a family job which he didn't want to take in the first place. He is a gentle soul who, despite not being allowed to, is the one keeping Cecily alive by giving her food and blankets for cold nights.
An Emphyrae woman working as Apollyon's waitress in The Lair. Although she always tries to keep a cheerful smile on, she's pretty cynical and very much not amused by Apo's crush on her, let alone her Fanservice-screaming work clothes he makes her wear....
Apollyon's rebellious big brother, who had a huge impact on how he turned out. He ran away from home when Apo was young, and no one knows where he headed.
Disappeared Dad: Both his and Apollyon's fathers were random guys with no real connection to their mother. Neither probably even know that they have children.
