Major Characters

Drendyn

The royal magus of Ratrilpot is very much a mystery, even to the magi he's tutored over the years. When it comes to knowledge, wisdom, and power, it seems like there isn't a mortal alive who could surpasss him. And yet, despite that, he puts up with the Queen's endless demands and allows her to control the kingdom through fear and violence.

Has his obvious concern for the princess Eilloena, who he's helped mentor over the years, made him soft? Does the Queen hold some secret weapon that bends his will to her own? Or is there something he knows that no one else does... something that will only be revealed when the time is right?

Fiction Featuring Drendyn:
Survival Idols - (Coming Soon)
 

Eilloena

Princess Eilloena is the polar opposite of the vain, violent, and vindictive monarch that rules the kingdom of Ratrilpot. She's more round than svelte; her heart is as big as a dragon's backside; and she tries to do the right thing, even if it means putting someone else's needs above her own.

And with the Queen seeming to despise Eilloena, it's no wonder then that her life has been one of conflict and adventure. Secrets, lies, monsters, war... it's all been part of the growing up process. Thankfully, Drendyn has been there to help keep her grounded and provide her with guidance. The question remains though... has she been prepared enough for what destiny (and the Queen) have in store for her?

Grandma Goodwitch

Eleanor Goodich, Grandma Goodwitch to the locals of Dilbenshire, lives in a little cottage deep in the heart of Fawnwick Forest, practicing the arts of healing and life preservation. And although she tends to be the one most of the local folk turn to for help, it's often suprising what forms that help will take.

Kendall

The Prince of Stillwell, Kendall is a young man who's stolen the heart of the princess Eilloena. The only question is whether he really wants it. From a looks standpoint he's quite the prince charming. He's also quite witty and quick thinking, which is helpful when you're constantly trying to avoid getting killed.

Lavender Pie

Lavender Pie is not a witch, a sorceress, a member of the royal family, or a warrior. She isn't wealthy; nor does she walk in circles of nobility. She isn't an immortal. She isn't a deity. She isn't even all that tall. In fact, Lavender Pie is just a little girl. Of course, that doesn't mean she's ordinary. Just ask the dragon who made the mistake of swallowing her mother.

That's not to say that Lavender is a troubled child. She's just a free spirited soul that likes adventure and doesn't fear very much. And in a kingdom where things to be afraid of include just about every sort of beast imaginable, that generally leads to lots of learning experiences... for Lavender and the creatures she comes in contact with.

The Queen

Take equal parts of beauty, villainy, vanity, violence, and self-delusion, and you have Ratrilpot's Queen, a woman who'll have you executed for not curtseying the right way. The Queen's favorite pastimes include torturing "criminals", changing her outfit, looking in the mirror, and tormenting her daughter.

As for her past, those who know of it are either long since dead or doing a good of keeping her from finding out that they know of it.
