A mysterious girl who appears to Elio in the Builders' Sanctuary.
----
* CloudCuckooLander: As a very young child, she doesn't understand what's going on in the world around her and simply takes things at face value.
* RealityWarper: [[spoiler:Like her mother Ewilan]], Eryn is a powerful Illustrator who can bend reality at will.
* WrongContextMagic: Elio believes she's a fairy due to her possessing abilities he cannot comprehend. She's an Illustrator, but Illustration as an ability has been lost to the other Families.
! Jalaab
The "Strength" of The Other. Jalaab is a being that seeks to destroy any enemies of The Other by brute force.
----
* TheBrute: His only skill is being inhumanly strong. He lacks any of the manipulative qualities of his "siblings" and simply seeks to destroy.
!Onju
The "Heart" of The Other, otherwise known as the Master of Storms. Onju is a being that manipulates the hearts of humans, using their fears and insecurities to gradually take control of them.
----
* BitchInSheepsClothing: Unlike the other pieces of The Other, which are [[CardCarryingVillain blatant about who and what they are]], Onju pretends to be a kind, sympathetic figure while luring humans to being possessed by him.
* DealWithTheDevil: How Onju's abilities work. He will empower a person, but the more they use these powers, the more influence Onju develops over them. At their final stage Onju can possess a person completely.
* DemonicPossession: Once a person lets Onju too far into their hearts, he can take possession of them.
* GoodPowersBadPeople: His main power is to grant abilities to others. However, Onju himself is a manipulative figure who corrupts people the more they use said powers.
* ManipulativeBastard: He lures people in with a WoundedGazelleGambit then attempts to corrupt their hearts to twist them into his pawns.
* MoreThanMindControl: Unlike Eqkter, who can simply brainwash others with his voice, a person has to invite Onju into their heart, requiring him to manipulate them first.
* MustBeInvited: Onju only has power over people who invite him in in one way or another.

* WeaksauceWeakness: Unlike his brothers, [[spoiler:Onju is defeated by mending fences and refusing him access to one's heart. When he has no influence over the hears of others, he melts away.]]

* CompellingVoice: Merely hearing Eqkter speak can give him control over a person's soul.
* NighInvulnerability: Eqkter is immune to conventional weapons, and even the Families' powers are mostly ineffective against him. [[spoiler:Elio has to lure him into a field of [[ManEatingPlant Man-Eating Grass]] to finally destroy him.]]
* OrcusOnHisThrone: Unlike his brothers, who directly target the protagonists, Eqkter is content to send others to do his dirty work.
