 Morrigan Siobhan O'Connell (Regan) Age: 130 Gender: Female Species: Human/Elf/Vampire hybrid Occupation: Project Manager (day)/Paranormal Agent (night) Role: Befuddled Heroine |
Regan is a Wolfe, a secret operative for the vampire syndicate the Grey Brethren, duties ranging from trade negotiations to culling Lesser vampires. She is far from a model employee. Besides diplomatic skills on par with Attila the Hun, she is unable to do more than rudimentary magic. The self-describe result of human and vampire hanky-panky, she should have no difficulty mastering magic. Unfortunately, magic didn't get that memo. |
 BelTalis'aresh ap Darafinet (Talis) Age: 150 Gender: Male Species: Mar'Gwynt Occupation: Thief/Smuggler Role: Best Friend |
Though incorrectly called "dark elves," the Mar'Gwynt are a race of seafaring Fey. All Mar'Gwynt are pacifists, believing there is great magical power in non-violence. Though an exile from his homeland, Talis adheres to his people's code of pacifism. Consequently, he's loyal friend, but not much help in a fight. Not that it matters much to Regan, but deep down, Talis wishes, just once, he could rescue the girl instead of the other way around. |
 Breas Montrose Age: 2000 Gender: Male Species: Vampire Occupation: Smuggler Role: Thorn in Heroine's Side |
Like Talis, Breas avoids confrontation. His motives, however, aren't quite so noble. Not schmopey or plagued with a conscience, Breas enjoys life and doesn't want to endanger his immortal existence. Unfortunately, he is magically linked to Regan and is dragged along everytime she stumbles onto danger. |
 Jason Astin-Blair Age: 27 Gender: Male Species: Human Occupation: Paranormal Agent Role: The Love Interest |
Jason comes from a long line of Holders. Despite his lineage, he didn't join the organization until his mid-twenties. Educated as a chemical engineer, he only signed on after the death of his sister in a suspicious car accident. A powerful sorcerer, Jason nonetheless maintains a certain ambivalence about his work for the Holders and isn't trusted by his superiors |
Holders of the True Light of the Sun (Holders)--Once upon a time the Fey (elves and fairies) and other Non-Earth Plane types owned a lot of Earth real estate. Sometime around the eighth century B.C., humans discovered iron and sent the Fey and most demon species packing. Owing to their propensity for taking all the upper management positions (kings, gods) and demanding virgin sacrifices, the departure of the Fey and Company was met with relief and drunken revelry among humans. After the dust settled and everyone's hangover wore off, it was clear that despite the change of address, Non-Earth folk could and did continue to meddle in Earth's affairs. The Holders of the True Light--the True Light is the sun as it shines on Earth Plane--were founded for the express purpose of keeping Earth a humans only, magic-free zone.
The Grey Brethren--The Grey Brethren are a sort of old boy's business club for vampires. Think of the Masons, with all the ritual, and very little of the charity work. Vampires, having started out as humans, think they have every right to call Earth home. The Holders disagree. About 700 years ago, the disagreement escalated to all out war between the Brethren and Holders, both sides nearly obliterating each other.
Nowadays, the two maintain an uneasy truce.
