* WizardsWar: Meroven starts to use mages in its war with Donderath at the start of ''Ice Forged'', which is viewed as a significant escalation, and Donderath is forced to reciprocate. This culminates in the use of a FantasticNuke called the Great Fire against the noble houses of Donderath, not knowing that several of those families were {{Cosmic Keystone}}s that kept magic under human control.

* TheGoodKing: King Merrill of Donderath, for what little he appears on-page. His most notable act is at Blaine's murder trial, when he remarks that while Blaine's father was one of his strongest political and military allies, Merrill wasn't blind to his faults and therefore commutes Blaine's sentence from beheading to exile.
