He spends most of first hours in Erfworld snickering at all the little puns and shout-outs to our world that nobody there is even aware of.

The Jetstone Prince popped after Ansom and before Ossomer. He is weaker than both in fighting ability, but his mental faculties may be the greatest of the three. His strategy appears to be on par with or greater than Ansom's, but he also has a much greater understanding of psychology and diplomacy. He was never made heir because he doesn't live up to King Stately's Royal ideals.

!King Slately of Jetstone

->''"My son is more of a man than I am. All my sons have been."''

The Ruler of Jetstone for over three thousand turns. During his reign, Jetstone has remained the strongest side in Erfworld, mostly thanks to the competence of his sons and daughters. Slately holds to Royal tenets even more than Ansom, yet privately acknowledges that he doesn't live up to them in reality. He has only seen combat once... for now.

* CharacterDevelopment: We've yet to see the results of it, but Slately has apparently changed much more in this one turn than several thousands.

The former Princess of FAQ, [[spoiler: and now, as of its restoration, its ''Queen'' ]], Jillian was never the heir her father had hoped to pop, and in many ways prefers life as a barbarian, but she still despises Stanely for ending her side. Her...interesting...relationship with his second-in-command does nothing to abate this.
