19	[[quoteright:250:'''Group/Affiliation:''' Unity\
20	'''Race:''' "Elf"]]
21
22	Famously known for his... [[SesquipedalianLoquaciousness extense vocabulary]], Falerin is the Caelestian [[PhysicalGod god]] [[GodOfEvil of Evil]], who is on Lore with Lorithia's permission as the Loremaster in Isle d'Oriens. He does not generally stick around for fights, and teleports away when swords are drawn.
23	----
24	* AwesomeAnachronisticApparel: Inverted. He wears a two-pieced dark gray and purple suit, which is very out-of-place in the medieval-inspired Lore. When he and Galrick first meet he notices "he was attired in some sort of odd outfit of purple, the likes of which [he] had never before seen" in ''Confrontation'' ([[AllThereInTheManual one of Falerin's Histories]]).

28	* DeityOfHumanOrigin: He was born, in fact, a human, later became a full grey elf and, just then, became a god.
29	%%* GentlemanAndAScholar
30	* GodOfEvil: In the Caelestian pantheon. Not that he's especially evil, though.

34	* SesquipedalianLoquaciousness: Even {{lampshade\|Hanging}}d in the ''Codex of Deeper Mysteries'' found in the Dracopyre Legacy saga.
35	-->The contents of this document I compiled from fragments of an ancient Lorian text more ancient than the entire timeline of Lore would seem to allow. (Parenthetical note to self. I am slipping. Two uses of the same word in the same sentence. Substitute archaic or something similar. I would use "antediluvian" but I am not sure there ever was a Lorian deluge of that sort. "Old" simply lacks my feeling. Hmm. "Archaic" implies lack of utility that is a potential problematic connotation. Of course, given the contents... and I am rambling once again.)

42	[[folder: Glenn Galrick]]
43	[[quoteright:250:'''Group/Affiliation:''' Unity, formerly The'Galin, N.O.V.A.\
44	'''Race:''' Human?]]
45
46	Galrick, son of Glenn, is an interdimensional traveller who has come to help against The'Galin. He was born in the nation of Neld, which was destroyed by the nation of Vandar. He became a reluctant communicant of The'Galin for revenge, but changed sides after meeting Falerin. He has since tried to [[TheAtoner redeem himself]] by assisting Unity.
47
48	He seems to have fallen in love with The Huntress.
49	----
50	* AffectionateNickname: He occassionally calls Celestra "old woman", to which she'll reply by calling him "kid". Given her [[ReallySevenHundredYearsOld age]]...
51	%%* TheAtoner
52	* AwesomeAnachronisticApparel: Inverted. He wears a black cargo pants, red trainers, a long-sleeved sweatshirt and a black T-shirt with "100% Ebil" on it, which contrast with the medieval-inspired Lore. Justified, because he's bought the outfit in [[PlanetTerra Terra]]. It's even remarked by the Chosen, when they first meet: "Who is he, and what is that he's wearing?"
53	* BattleCouple: With [[spoiler:Celestra]].
54	* CrusadingWidower: As a result of the Vandarian attack on Neld, his pregnant wife (and his brother) died. With time, he would be left with "nothing and no one to live for", and would give in to anger, due to the waste of human lives and the destruction of Neld.
55	* [[spoiler:HappilyMarried]]: [[spoiler:To Celestra.]]
56	%%* HeroesPreferSwords
57	* HeroicWillpower: In [[AllThereInTheManual the IIRC sessions]], Galrick was turned into a monster by Cartwright but he managed to overcome his condition, returning to normal.
58	%%* HeroicSacrifice
59	* TheMedic: While on Terra, Galrick went to medical school and became a doctor... which is very noticeable when most people in-game can use magic/potions to heal themselves. (Then again, in Terra, 'normal' magic cannot be used.)
60	* NotAfraidToDie
61	* TheOnlyOneAllowedToDefeatYou: Ryuusei Cartwright seems very pissed at the idea of Galrick escaping from his control and won't let anyone but him have the pleasure of killing him.
62	* PintSizedPowerhouse: He's notable for being smaller than many other characters, including Celestra (who even calls him "pint-sized Terran warrior" once). As for power, he can hold his own against powerful enemies and is known to be a competent warrior. At one point, he also shared some of The'Galin's power during his brief stint as his communicant.
63	%%* PointyEars
64	* {{Telepathy}}: It allows him to be a communicate material for The'Galin, though Falerin himself (and particularly, one of his avatars, The Traveller) takes advantage of it, too.
65	* UnwittingInstigatorOfDoom: Had he not 'accepted' The'Galin's offer to stop the Vandarian attack on Neld, Lore wouldn't need to deal with the Devourer's coming (or would have been delayed at best). [[UnwittingPawn Not that he'd wanted to do it]].
66	[[/folder]]
67
68	[[folder:Garavin, a.k.a. the Eternal]]
69	Garavin and his daughter, The Huntress, survived The'Galin's original coming to Lore, but he was cursed with undending life and charged with keeping watch over the clock that counts down to the return of the Devourer.

74
75	[[folder: Tralin]]
76	Sometimes called Trae by his lifelong friend Nel, Tralin is a Drakel king of a human kingdom, he is the communicant of the creator goddess of Lore, Lorithia, and is also the Avatar of Life. He guides you to know what you must do to survive the coming of The'Galin.
77
78	His wife is Queen Kithia, and his son is Prince Shirian.
79	----
80	* AffectionateNickname: Nel always calls him "Trae".
81	* BattleCouple: With Kithia, occasionally.
82	* BlackSheep: Not only within his family (as he turned on his family's tradition of following the Water Lord), but within the Drakel in general as well (as a kind and helpful servant of a human king and as T'Palo).
83	%%* ChildhoodFriends: With Nel.
84	%%* FireForgedFriends: With Darin.
85	* HappilyAdopted: Even when he was old enough to be Draynor's ''grandfather'' (in human years, that is), he was adopted by the king, who had no children of his own and wished for him to become his successor.
86	%%* HappilyMarried: To Kithia.
87	* NearDeathExperience: [[spoiler:After drinking a Metanoia Potion and casting relentlessly spells againts the Devourer's undead forces in TranquilFury mode, he collapses from exhaustation. After both the Devourer and the Water Lord tried to claim him as theirs, Lorithia steps up and claims him as her communicant, [[ItIsNotYourTime telling him to return]].]]
88	* {{Necromancer}}: While not a usual practicioner of this art, he's apt in it.
89	* NotSoStoic: [[spoiler:When King Draynor died at the hands of the Brilhado, he was [[ManlyTears openly crying]], along with Delnar. And then, goes straight TranquilFury territory against the hordes of undead. He showed renewed anger when Jano was infected by the Cold and was given a MercyKill.]]
90	* ThePhilosopherKing: So much that he didn't really care about being nobility when Draynor offered it to him, because he didn't desire power of that sort, nor would he refuse it if it was given. His interest was, as always, in knowledge and for the well-being of all people. It was the reason why Draynor chose him as his successor.
91	%%* RoyalsWhoActuallyDoSomething
92	%%* SorcererKing
93	* TheStoic: King Draynor II often wondered if his apparent stoicism was a trait of all Drakel or something specific to Tralin, though.
94	* {{Telepathy}}: As a communicant of Lorithia herself, he possesses this ability.
95	* UniversallyBelovedLeader: Basically, everyone saw no problem in him becoming a noble despite being a Drakel (they, at the time, remained hidden and obscure to the other races). Even the closest contender would have refused the appointment if Tralin could be chosen instead. In fact, when [[spoiler:Darin and Jano (pre-HeelFaceTurn)]] tried to incite trouble about this, they failed miserably.
96	* VitriolicBestBuds: With Diviara, whom Tralin allows to disrespect him by calling him "Drakel", even when he is a king and the communicant of Lorithia.
97	[[/folder]]
98
99	[[folder: Darin]]
100	Governor of K'eld Ner in Deren, friend of Tralin, opponent of the Devourer. He is an expert tactician and communicant of the Water Lord.
101	----
102	* DragonInChief: To Feldar, when he was part of the Vandarian army that attacked Neld.
103	%%* FireForgedFriends: With Tralin.
104	* HeelFaceTurn: Well, he changed sides from the Vandarian army to the Derenian court, along with Jano.
105	* ManipulativeBastard: When he was part of the Vandarian forces, he was willing to manipulate anyone if it furthered his motives.
106	* ManlyTears: Shed over Jano's [[MercyKill death]], who had been infected by the Cold.
107	%%* {{Telepathy}}: He's, after all, a communicant of the Water Lord.%%Meaning what?

112	[[quoteright:250:'''Group/Affiliation:''' Unity; [=ArchMages=]\
113	'''Race:''' Elf]]
114
115	Beleqwaya is an [=ArchMage=] and traveler of great powers who has no home. He wanders Battleon looking for a number of Spell Components, and will gladly share his treasures for some help in finding them.

125	Good brother of Diviara, friend of Tralin, and opponent of the Devourer.

132	[[folder:Amilara Celegra]]
133	[[quoteright:250:'''Group/Affiliation:''' Unity\
134	'''Race:''' Brilhado]]
135
136	Amilara is a Necromancer, and the estranged son of Diviara. He views undead as no different from ordinary people, as shown by his friendship with Cagliari.

155
156	!!Lord Barrius
157	Lord Barrius is the leader of an order of knights hidden throughout Lore, and [=ElBhe=]'s owner, who protects the balance between the Shadow universe and Lore.
158	----
159	* DualWield: His two swords are called Lodestar, for offense, and Eventide, for defense. Their elements are [[PlayingWithFire Fire]] and ***, respectively.
160	%%* HeroesPreferSwords
161	* TheLeader: Of the Knights of Order. (Or at least, co-leader alongside Kalanyr.)
162	* RankScalesWithAsskicking: He's the leader and most likely the strongest, with what being able to fight (or simply, distract) an EldritchAbomination and [[spoiler:having resided in the Shadow Universe for years.]]
163	* ShadowWalker: He is known to have mastered the art of walking among Shadows, and shared it with ninjas.
164	%%* TheStoic
165	* UnknownRival: Algern. However, it's not that Barrius doesn't know that his former pupil wants to defeat him, it's just that he thinks he's weak, and thus not worthy of his attention.
166
167	!![=ElBhe=]
168	The Shadowkitten, [=ElBhe=], has been spotted around Greenguard Forest, and was supposedly attacking Ashwood Village, a small town on the edge of the Forest. Besides being a half of Lord Barrius' NPC, it has been revealed that [=ElBhe=] is his [[LivingShadow shadow self]].
169	%%----
170	%%* BrutalHonesty: All the time.%%Quotes are not context.
171	%%-->'''[=ElBhe=]''': (''to Falerin and Lord Barrius'') "Nobody likes long boring talky scenes, you guys."
172	%%* LivingShadow: Of Lord Barrius.
173	%%* NonHumanSidekick: To Lord Barrius.
174	%%* SidekickCreatureNuisance: The Chosen sure thinks so.
175	%%* TalkingAnimal
176
177	!!Kalanyr Arkan'ett
178	Kalanyr is an Archmage of untold age and immense power. He wields the powers of Nerf and Buff, and is powerful enough to control a nerfkitten.
179	----
180	* TheAgeless: Sidhe are practically immortal. (They are able to die, nevertheless.)
181	%%* BadassCape
182	%%* GlowingEyesOfDoom
183	%%* HeroesPreferSwords
184	* HeroicBuild: For a wizard, he sure looks buff.
185	* KryptoniteFactor: Apparently, that's what normal iron is for sidhe like him.
186	* TheLeader: In a way, he's the co-leader of Knights of Order alongside Lord Barrius.
187	* LudicrousPrecision: Kalanyr tends to be rather precise about he speaks, even though the Chosen is accustomed to people not saying the whole truth about [[BuffySpeak stuff]].
188	** In ''Looking for Leads: Ku Ku!'', the Chosen need the Knights' help, but they are busy dealing with a Ku manifestation, and the Chosen asks what are they. He answers.
189	--->'''Kalanyr:''' Well, you could say that they are the personification of the remainder of an equation, which considering that an equation should always balance out to zero...\
190	'''Zephyros:''' I don't think <Character> was looking for the technical description, Kalanyr.
191	** Or (in the same quest):
192	--->'''«You»:''' As I was saying, I'd be happy to help with your Ku problem. How many do we have to deal with?\
193	'''Zephyros:''' If we're lucky? Just one.\
194	'''«You»:''' ...Not much of an infestation, is it?\
195	'''Kalanyr:''' 46.\
196	'''«You»:''' That's... [[LudicrousPrecision awfully precise.]]
197	* MisplacedRetribution: In the ''Jr. Squires of Order'' quest, he's in bad mood because the knights can't figure out some weird magic issues on Dragonclaw Island, and he threatens people (read: The Chosen) with [[KillerRabbit nerfkitten]] [[DisproportionateRetribution infestations]].
198	%%* MysticalWhiteHair
199	* OurSpiritsAreDifferent: Sidhe are actually [[NatureSpirit nature spirits]] that come from [[AllThereInTheManual outside the plane of Lore]]. As a result they bear some resemblance to elves.
200	* ReallySevenHundredYearsOld: He's a sidhe that's over 6,000 years old, yet he looks as if he was in his thirties.
201
202	!!Aelthai (a.k.a. Miss Fixit)
203	Aelthai is one of the Knights of Order who has been elected as spokesknight to inform players of the changes made to Lore.
204	----
205	%%* AnimeHair
206	%%* CurtainsMatchTheWindow
207	* MagicHair: It randomly changes to one of several styles when she comes onscreen, so it's probably a safe bet.
208	* MajorInjuryUnderreaction: Implied by the way a failed teleport attempt leaves her casually wondering if they were still where they'd started or if she'd forgotten to teleport her eyes again.
209	%%* TheFace: Of the Knights of Order.
210
211	!!Zephyros
212	One of Knights of Order. He's an archaeologist as well, attempting to stop bandits from stealing precious ancient artifacts. Runs the Museum of Lorian Natural and Cultural History in Deren.
213	----
214	* AdventurerArchaeologist: Though he knows how to fight and has a whip, he's very careful with the material he works with.
215	%%* AdventurerOutfit: Of the archaeologist variant.
216	%%* FedoraOfAsskicking
217
218	!!Kamui
219	Member of the Knights of Order, researcher and inventor.

228
229	!!Radagast
230	Radagast is a Knight of Order, despite his frequent lapses of judgement and hazy sense of reality.
231
232	One of two pranksters who try to cause "the ultimate prank" on April Fools Day 2009. Instead, they wind up summoning Loco and become his brainwashed (and gullible) minions.
233	----
234	* BrainwashedAndCrazy: Since he's already crazy, Loco just added the 'brainwashed' part.
235	* BunnyEarsLawyer: Despite [[CloudCuckooLander his quirks]], he constantly remains a member of the Knights of Order. Considering Barrius's standards, he must be reallt good.
236	* CloudCuckooLander
237	* CrouchingMoronHiddenBadass: For all the mischief that he causes, he ''IS'' a Knight of Order (a.k.a. a group of incredibly powerful people.)
238	* TheGadfly: Happily admits to being willfully obtuse when called out on it, claiming that the Chosen was "being serious enough for both of them"
239	* HiddenDepths: While he's almost always cast as a fool, there has been a hint or two (such as a [[TechnoBabble surprisingly technical]] description of the Numbered Beasts' weather effects after just seeing one in action) that he's smarter than his antics imply
240	%%* LongHairedPrettyBoy
241	* MindControlEyes: His normally red eyes turned gray when he was under Loco's thrall.
242	* OOCIsSeriousBusiness: Perhaps best put his own [[InvokedTrope invocation of the trope]]:
243	-->'''Radagast:''' ''I'M'' being serious here! Think about that for a moment!\
244	'''Nimrod:''' Sweet Lorithia! We're DOOMED!
245	* NamedWeapon: Apparently his knife is named "Lady Vorpal of Snickersnack", though he alternates between calling it "Snickers" and "Snicks" because he finds its full name pretentious.
246	* TagalongKid: [[ZigZaggedTrope Zig-zagged?]] Though he ''might'' not be a kid ([[ArtisticAge it's hard to say]]), he's definitely much young than the rest of the Knights. In addition, Kalanyr and Aelthai are the ones who usually end up [[TheLoad watching over him so that he doesn't get into trouble]], but he's not [[BunnyEarsLawyer among the Knights without merit]]--just like [[AxCrazy Shii]]. Radagast can be [[HiddenDepths pretty intelligent and useful]] [[CrouchingMoronHiddenBadass when he wants to.]]
247	* TalkingWeapon: According to Radagast, his knife lectures him from time to time. Admittedly, Radagast's word is [[CloudCuckooLander questionable]] [[ItAmusedMe at]] [[ThePrankster best]], but the fact that the knife has been shown snickering at its wielder getting into trouble does lend some credibility to the claim.
248	* ThePrankster: Very much so. His first three appearances were even April Fools events.
249	* YouDidntAsk: He knew the location of the Energy Prime Orb, but never told the Chosen (even though he/she was looking for them) until he mentioned them in ''Looking for Leads: Ku Ku!''.
250	-->'''«You»:''' You mean you knew where a Prime Orb was? Why didn't you tell me? Why didn't you make sure it was safe?\
251	'''Radagast:''' [[YouDidntAsk You never asked]], and it's not my job to salvage orbs. In fact, I think I'm actually specifically forbidden from it. I'll have to read that handbook sometime.

255	Former student of Master Archanius, she is a teacher at Battleon's school. The Truphma are after her to keep her from taking Archanius's place, but fail as she becomes the guardian of imagination, creativity, learning, and thinking.
