Important Non Player Characters

back to TheStarsAreRight:Main Page

Alanna

A minor member of the Fae community in Los Angeles. I suppose she's not actually an important non player character... but don't tell Redland Jack, okay?

Becker, Cecil

A reclusive industrialist in his 60s, based in London. He made his fortune expanding his family's business. He is a patron of the arts, collecting a number of works from the 1870s onwards. He has mentored a number of young artists, but has never met any of them face to face -- instead acting through his agent Edmund Handley. In the winter of 1931, he commissioned a series of sketches of Sandoy Island from archaeological illustrator Henrik Mueller. The reason for these has not been explained. Turns out he's not in his 60s, but he is actually an American by birth and is the brother of Colonel Ryan Becker.

Becker, Ryan

Colonel, U. S. Army. Becker is the Army's go-to guy responsible for defending against Outsider incursions on U.S. soil. Ryan is the brother of Cecil Becker, now residing in England.

Caine, Meridon

Meridon appears to be approximately 40 years old and lives in New York. She is a sort of lawyer to the Fae. Although she often works closely with the Fae, she has experienced a trauma at their hands, and her overall feeling on them could be classified as 'ambivalent'. She is smart, pretty, and wonderful (and kind... and to heck with Carl if he disagrees).

Coleman, Lamont

An official in the U.S. federal government, effectively their "Witchfinder General".

Columbo, Jordayne (nee Piercy)

Born: June 3, 1896, Belmont Ohio
Died: January 19, 1932, Chicago, IL

Theater manager of the Golden West Theater in San Vieta, California during the infamous San Vieta Slasher murders of 1921. Dated Terrence Columbo pre-1920,and they eventually married in 1923. After birth of their son, her husband vanished and she had only sporatic contact with him.

Dark Pharaoh

A cool guy who is Redland's close, personal friend. Or, possibly, a creepy, powerful Outsider who uses mortals as pawns for his own amusement... your pick. Frequently appears as an offputting middle-aged Egyptian-looking fellow.

Donal

There are three copies of this guy hanging about, which is kind of interesting. Of course, two of the copies are dead, so now there is only one of him, which, I guess, makes him less interesting. He's associated, in some way, with Pentheus and the Principle of Aspiration.

Hamilton, Emma

Once a powerful member of the Enclave, she abandoned the Enclave and it's policies immediately after their civil war. Now an important member of the Fae community, though she currently resides outside of it.

Baron Hauptmann (sp?)

A leader of the Brotherhood of the Beast, one of a handful of powerful sorcerors that run the organization. Summoner, spellcaster, and centuries-old body-jumper, he stays alive and young by stealing others' lives. He has been imprisoned in Tibet for a couple of years. Probably not a particularly great guy.

King, Hannibal

Private Investigator, originally located in Chicago, IL. King was eventually revealed to be one of the Nightsiders - or "The People" as they then termed themselves. King was instrumental in putting together the Nightsider Treaty with Carl Ellis, and played a early but pivotal part in the transfiguration of Hannalore Rhyner into the principal of Salvation -- and her subsequent elevation to leadership of the new Nightsider (Fae) society.

Milo (Tavernner?)

A crusty, old prospector, Milo's best friend, Annabelle (a mule), has the ability to 'sniff out' alchemical materials. He spends a reasonable amount of time in the deserts near Los Angeles.

Mueller, Rebecca (nee Hopkins)

A woman originally from Kentucky, looks like a blonde California girl in her early twenties, but with an attitude. She has a power of empathy that she was raised from an early age to use as a weapon. She is closely bonded to Auda Abbasi and is married to Henrik Mueller.

Parkhurst, Grergory, Dr.

A central figure in Medea's court in Los Angeles

Rhyner, Hannelore / also known as Medea

The Queen of the Fae, and the Principle of Salvation. Her birthday is October 19th. She is currently residing in Los Angeles, and she has set up a base where she is gathering most of her people (several hundred at least). Previously married to Henry Williams (deceased) and Theo Weiss (divorced).

Roth, Elaine

A member of the Island families (of the Roth clan) who gave up her mystical connection to the families in order to help Carl against the Warlord Aran in China. She and Antonio Grimaldi have a son named Peter. According to residents in Bailey, she had left Bailey for parts unknown before the events in December 1931 where the village's pagan deity, The Lady, was re-imprisoned. At last report, as of May 1932, Elaine was in Japan.

Both Peter and Grace Turner whom he was left in Bailey with have since joined Elaine in Japan.

Stanton, Alexandria Elyse (nee Durrell

The Principle of Resurrection, whose whereabouts are unknown at present. She is the head of the "Children of Abydos", and her birthday is on August 19th. Once engaged to Antonio Grimaldi, now married to John Stanton.

[[LAURA STRICKLEY|Strickley, Laura)

A candidate for the Principle of Aspiration. An aristocratic Englishwoman, she escaped from an insane asylum early in 1932. She believed/believes that she is living in the 1890s.

Usher, Roderick

A powerful Nightsider who has designs on becoming the leader of the Fae. Originally house leader in the Enclave faction, since Medea's rise and the fall of the Enclave, he has allied himself with one of the Elders and now seeks Medea's hand in marriage.
