Not Pictured

  Seri of Clan Ashri

  Gem Type: NA Birth Type: Deepborn

  Supposedly deceased, she was once extremely close with her sister Zia, until Seri became involved with the Pathmakers. She was beloved by many, a charismatic figure that was seen as loving, giving, and trustworthy. She arranged her own plummet from the rooftop of her home fortress, using her death to activate a sigil to open the Rend and more-or-less framing Zia in the process.

  Prax the Clanless

  Gem Type: Opal Birth Type: Unknown

  Prax is the mysterious, untraceable Opal who is said to have assisted Seri in creating a number of sigils, including the one which ultimately re-opened the Rend.

  Clan Raystone

  Ashai:

  Jenner of Clan Kaiatek

  Gem Type: Jasper Birth Type: Skyborn

  Jenner is the unofficial (I think) leader of Coven Raystone. He was marked out to become one of the Crown’s Clanless because the sovereign regarded him as a threat to his line of succession.

  Vyr of Clan Trasseck

  Gem Type: Onyx Birth Type: Skyborn

  Vyr is a healer with a soft spot for animals and outcasts. Unfortunately, she doesn’t seem to like me very much.

  Imbris of Clan Embiri

  Gem Type: Jade Birth Type: Deepborn

  Imbris Iikes to make things, including occasionally illegal things—hence landing herself in a coven bound to be Clanless. She and Asho are obviously very close.

  Asho of Clan Jhisa

  Gem Type: Diamond Birth Type: Deepborn

  Asho is a nosy arsonist.

  Kohai:

  Reve of Clan Soltras

  Gem Type: Topaz Birth Type: Skyborn

  A supposedly former member of the Pathmakers, the group who wanted the Rend to open. They loved Seri and absolutely hate me.

  You could be reading stolen content. Head to Royal Road for the genuine story.

  Destrien of Clan Sadras

  Gem Type: Garnet Birth Type: Deepborn

  Destrien is infatuated with Keshry and thinks he’s hilarious. His familiar is a condorgrag, a creature somewhere between a vulture and a cougar.

  Erek of Clan Odros

  Gem Type: Sapphire Birth Type: Deepborn

  Erek was original Zia’s closest friend and first love (I think). But he turned his back on her when she needed him most. Honestly, screw this guy.

  Zia of Clan Ashri

  Gem Type: Opal Birth Type: Deepborn

  Before she overwrote herself with me, Zia was a sigil-making prodigy even though she didn’t yet have a Gem to power them. She tried to stop the opening of the Rend, but thanks to a nasty sigil made against her—and the actions of her awful sister, Seri—her/my reputation was ruined.

  Others of Importance:

  Thors of Clan Khural

  Gem Type: Jasper Birth Type: Skyborn

  One of the first friends I made in this world. The favored heir of the sovereign and an incredible fighter. As all the other kobolds of his coven died in a suspicious accident, he is alone.

  *I owe him 3 favor because I am an idiot

  Keshry of Clan Sadras

  Gem Type: Jade Birth Type: Deepborn

  The second friend I made in this world. She’s had hints of her innate abilities since before she got her first Gem. Kobolds believe people like her are destined to become dragons, but she swears she won’t.
