Tebitha is an Horizon-caste Infernal Exalt sorceress, who runs a floating asylum for those devoured by the Fair Folk. Koa-Mika and Tebitha crossed paths when they both tried to recover magitech scrap from a watery battlefield south of Wu-Jian. They crossed swords briefly, but were ultimately able to come to an agreement and split the booty. Since then, Tebitha has become a patron of Koa-Mika's forge, supplying a steady stream of orders for artifacts. They also have an on-again/off-again romance, depending on the mood of the focused and mercurial Exalt. | Tebitha is an Horizon-caste Infernal Exalt sorceress, who runs a floating asylum for those devoured by the Fair Folk.

She's doing experiments on the Dream-Eaten to try and rekindle a spark of humanity within them. Sounds like there's some sinister agenda behind this, right? Well, yes, but it's not hers. She's smart but not that great at reading people. Especially manipulative demons. She's fascinated by these strange Exalts who come from a non-Yozified Primordial. | She's doing experiments on the Dream-Eaten to try and rekindle a spark of humanity within them.

A mermaid princess and skilled negotiator who seeks to maintain peace between the various underwater factions. Diamond has been called in as a healer and, more strangely, a professional chef on multiple instances, thus earning myriad favors with the princess as a result. She's tried to get betrothed to Diamond six times now, and each time it falls through for strange and overtly complex reasons. Also known as Princess Mette of the Abyss, a potent faerie noble driven by a singular, unusual goal for a faerie. Tired of the inconstancy of feeding on Creation and the chaos of the Wyld, she's seeking a way to become human; not just in appearance, but in mind and in soul. She is utterly ruthless and amoral in pursuing this goal, and she has reduced many would-be lovers to deadened husks in hopes that they'd give her a soul of her own, but Swiftly Flowing Silver, also struggling with trying to become something greater, can't help but sympathize with her struggle. | A mermaid princess and skilled negotiator who seeks to maintain peace between the various underwater factions.

He's a mortal who leveraged cleverness and ruthlessness into being the "face" of a divine conspiracy. A handful of minor gods are using their powers to support him in an attempt to weaken the Realm's control of the island. He has a good working relationship with Shadow of Future Glory, but is very clear that their alliance evaporates the moment the Alchemicals claim any authority over "his" island or people. | He's a mortal who leveraged cleverness and ruthlessness into being the "face" of a divine conspiracy.

− | + | ===(Neutral) The captain of a Denzik city-ship.=== | |
− | === | + | The city-ships have managed to remain (mostly) neutral, ending up one of the major merchant powers of the West while staying independent of direct control by the Realm. The fleet as a whole has mixed feelings about the changes brought by Iron Island. This captain in particular is bothered by how quickly Shadow of Future Glory has inserted themself into the mercantile seascape of the West. She's concerned that they're upending long-established power dynamics. Presenting new opportunities, to be sure, but this captain watches the Alchemicals and their island with a wary eye. |

A few years ago, Shadow spent some time going from island to island on the empire's edges, meddling with local economies enough to raise the lower classes out of poverty and, as a result, out of the empire's indentured servitude. While the Coral Archipelago generally keeps up a pretense that anyone can rise to success, enough of the empire's plutocrats were losing their work force that the Sea Lord was pressured to respond. Shadow of Future Glory was declared a pirate, and officially speaking, they now owe a price equal to the lost labor of every former servant they enriched. They have made it clear that they won't pay this debt. | A few years ago, Shadow spent some time going from island to island on the empire's edges, meddling with local economies enough to raise the lower classes out of poverty and, as a result, out of the empire's indentured servitude.

A Marrow-Cast Liminal has taken charge of this hunt, and she hopes to force Shadow to pay their debts, or kill them to send a message. Shadow is sure that an Exalt wouldn't be motivated by something as simple as money (even though the bounty would buy a life of luxury for just about anyone), and hopes to find a way to turn this bounty hunter into an ally, but so far she's been all business, refusing to hint at ''why'' she's doing this. | A Marrow-Cast Liminal has taken charge of this hunt, and she hopes to force Shadow to pay their debts, or kill them to send a message.

Shadow began an elaborate scheme to expose the murderer, hoping to bring his crimes to light in a way that couldn't be ignored. But their schemes were exposed before being completed, and the Orichalcum warrior managed to spread the "magnanimous" lie that they had simply cracked under the stress of an important job. That earned Shadow their mission to oversee the logistics of a scouting mission into Gaia's Creation. The Orichalcum warrior isn't a current threat, and wouldn't even consider himself an enemy. But when the Alchemicals force their way into Creation again, he's going to be all too willing to get revenge on the "hypocrite" Shadow of Future Glory for accusing him and then betraying the entire world. | Shadow began an elaborate scheme to expose the murderer, hoping to bring his crimes to light in a way that couldn't be ignored.
