			Inara is a member of the Silver Pact, but she does not claim membership in any of the particular factions, preferring to focus on her and her family's immediate problems in and around Nexus. She was courted by both the Thousand Streams and the Swords of Luna; she was not interested in the sort of manipulation required by the former faction, and she did not want to abandon her responsibilities in Nexus to join the latter. The rest of the Silver Pact now considers her a Seneschal of the Sun Kings, but she does not particularly associate with the rest of this faction or share their ultimate goals.

			Rykina of Halta is a young Outcaste who has thrown in whole-heartedly with the Bull of the North, despite her country's recent re-assessment of their alliance. In Halta, she was an extremely wealthy merchant and courtier at the Queen of Halta's court. She has since put her vast wealth and her talent for earning more at the Bull of the North's disposal. Currently, the Bull has dispatched Rykina to the Scavenger Lands to serve as an emissary and contact with the Confederation of Rivers, and with other Solars in the region (especially the Circle of Denandsor).

			Miyoji is a young mortal man of Lookshy, barely fifteen summers of age, if that. He never knew his parents, only that he was born a helot, and dreamt of one day becoming a great warrior. Then came the battle for Lookshy. Though he knew he was outmatched, he fought bravely in the city's third ring, doing all that he could to destroy the enemy. But he saw his death coming as an Abyssal stepped towards him, black daiklaives held ready. Miyoji held himself ready, knowing that his end was here.

			Seijiro is a god whose experience dates back to the Primordial War. While not quite as powerful as the directional gods of war, within his area of expertise, only Sol Invictus could match him. Out of respect for this feat, Seijiro swore to serve the Unconquered Sun, and helped to train His Exalted. The Sword God found great joy in working with Solars of the Dawn caste; here were warriors born, who absorbed his knowledge like sponges and expanded upon it, raising Seijiro's own acclaim.

Originally from Great Forks, he achieved his greatest feat when he disarmed his First Age incarnation's tomb in Nexus, retrieving the legendary Third-Arm Glaive from his coffin. Since that time, he has been based out of Nexus (no surprise, as his Lunar mate lives in that city), but serves as an ally of the Circle.
