Editing WARCRY (section)

===Friends===
* '''Simeon Juarez Escudero''', her grandfather, who raised her after her mother's death.  A dour, severe, but honourable old man and a devoted catholic, horrified with his grand-daughter's blasmemous pretentions to godhead, who nevertheless still loves her.

* '''Dr. Madelene Emmerling''', a Dutch-born archaeologist studying [[Wikipedia:mesoamerican|mesoamerican]] civilizations.  After an inauspicious start when Warcry thought Emmerling had reached Chantico in order to plunder her people's cultural resources or to spy on behalf of some enemy, the two became friends. Madelene Emmerling is a short, blonde, forty-ish woman with startling blue eyes and gold-rimmed glasses, an easy laugh, and nerves of steel.  She is extremely well-read and fluent in a dozen languages.

* '''Tomas Panitzin Ballestero''', a Guatemalan [[Wikipedia:mestizo|mestizo]] agronomist who used to work in the hinterlands to help small communities farm more efficiently.  He is now the administrator of Chantico in Warcry's absence, as well as a close friend and someone she can rely on to pass messages to other people discreetly.

* '''Baraka''', a super-villain from [[Wikipedia:Algeria|Algeria]].  Baraka, like Warcry, is classified as a villain because she works entirely within the law she sets for herself rather than the "law of the land."  Baraka has the ability to manipulate probabilities on a quantum level.  She hunts down warlords, criminals, slave traders, weapons dealers, pirates, etc. &mdash; and makes sure that they meet with an unpleasant end.  She and Warcry are friends and partenered up on a couple of fights back before the invasion.
