Minor Characters

Information On This Designation

Characters that come under minor are typically only seen for a small amount of pages, some only appearing on a single page.
 * Background characters and mentioned only characters with no specific name do not come under "Minor Characters", as such are left out of the Wiki all together.
 * A character must be mentioned or must speak in at least one line of dialogue if they make a physical appearance to be considered "Minor", perhaps even having a lot of significance to the plot, however if they are never referred to by an official name they cannot possess a individual page for themselves.
 * Characters who have only been mentioned should be identified as such within their section of this article, but not the section title.
 * If a character physically appears more than once, has at least one line of dialogue, and has been officially named, they may receive a dedicated page. Creation of a dedicated page for one of the below characters is largely dependent on the amount of canon information about the character.
 * Side Sketch exclusive characters also may be added to this list with the tag "(SSE)" next to their name and the level of canon they are portrayed with or their appearance has will be specified within their section. Only characters that have some form of canonical relation to the comic will be featured, perhaps they have been referred to or implied about but have the potential to of existed or still exist elsewhere in the main comic universe. All "(SSE)" characters should be listed a towards the bottom of any race section they are part of to distinguish them from the characters that actually make an appearance within the main comic. Purely fictional characters should not be included.

Templar Cleric
The Templar Cleric is a male human character involved in a brief scene during Chapter 3, between pages 54 & 55, when Trace and Flora first arrive in the human city. The Cleric had black hair, brown eyes, fair skin and wore a hooded white robe embroidered with the Templar's mark.

Before arriving at the city Flora had injured her foot running away from a misunderstanding with Trace and Keith, so when they arrived at the city Trace sought out the first form of healer he could find. Although originally hesitant to cooperate, upon Trace's revalation to him that he was the Grand Templar, he changed his tone. Towards the end of healing Flora, he, speculating that Trace was preparing to sell her, mentions that she is a very beautiful slave and that he would consider buying her, before saying that her breasts were too small when referring to the reason he may not purchase her after all.

Flora quickly leaves at this point to demand Trace to answer if he thinks they are too.

Bounty Hunter
The Bounty Hunter is a male human character who served as a minor antagonist throughout Chapter 4, appearing on 5 separate pages and is presumed to be deceased. He appeared with a wanted poster of Trace declaring that the Templar Order had put a large bounty to bring him in and he intended to collect. The Bounty Hunter had spiky yellow hair, blue eyes and white skin. He wore a black robe and had a strange blue mark across his left cheek. The Bounty hunter appeared to be skilled in both swordsmanship and magic, wielding a sword in one scene and using a type of binding spell on Trace as an example of his magical abilities.

The Bounty Hunter seemed very pleased to see Trace, realizing the potential rewards that came with his capture. Though the circumstances are left unclear, he mentions that Trace "sent his family to their graves" which would be his motivation to capture him. It is unknown how, or if, the Bounty Hunter's family was actually killed by Trace before he lost his memories. Regardless, the Bounty Hunter held a great resentment towards Trace. After utilizing the power of the nearby Templar Tower, Trace broke free of his magical bindings and proceeded to change into his "Dark" form, apparently killing the Bounty Hunter, off-panel, with mana dragons.

Cutaway Guy
The Cutway Guy appeared only once on page 224, a male human, and a one off joke character. He had black hair tied in a ponytail, brown eyes, white skin and was covered in scrapes and bruises all over his body. He wears a light brown vest with dark brown trousers. He is seen farming a plot of land near the forest that Trace and his group are travaling through, he unintentionally breaks the 4th wall while lamenting about how boring his life is and how he's almost being used "as a literary device to momentarily break away from the action. " Lady Nora first appears to save the group from the Dark Mana Dragon covered in a thunder cloud, this shocks the man off of his feet and he wonders what could be causing them to move as they are.

Not much is known about him, but he appears to be depressed at his lackluster life working on his plot of land, and dreams of having a more interesting life one day.

Edinmire Girl
This Edinmire Girl was a young human female and playmate of Flora and Keiren when they were little, appearing in page 112 and as a background cameo in page 407. She has fair skin and long purple hair.

She hurt Flora's feelings one day by stating that she can't be included in their game of "House" because she's a Keidran. Later she can be seen running with Keiren along a roadside away from Flora in another game where Flora is pretending to chase them. Trace's carriage happened to be traveling down that same road at the same time, Flora waved at Trace and this would mark the first time they ever met, but years later neither seems to remember.

Some have speculated the girl to be a young Maren Taverndatter due to the similar purple hair and skin color. This may be true due to the fact that Keiren, as Maren is, appears to be in his 20s by the current events of the comic. The speculation could, however, be false due to the fact that the Taverndatter Inn is in the town of Pinewood, and the events of this flashback were in the outskirts of Edinmire, in addition to the fact that neither Maren, nor Flora, recognize one another.

The move from Edinmire to Pinewood, where the Taverndatter's Tavern is, could be explained by a family move, or a family trip to see family or friends. On the other hand, the fact that Maren doesn't recognize Flora (or likewise) is more difficult to explain away, the most likely reason being that they simply don't recognize one another due to the change in their appearance over the four year period of time between those flash-backs and the current events of the comic.

Additionally, page 112 is labeled "four years ago", along with one cell depicting a slightly aged Keiren, being labeled "one year ago". Page 407 appears to depict some of the events of the day of Saria au Gruhen's death, which Nora dates at "six seasons ago". As evidenced by page 409, Nora meant "six spring seasons ago" in her statement, as that places Saria's death two years prior to Trace taking power, which occurred four years prior to the current events of the comic. The two years in between, Trace dedicated to reviving Saria, causing him to develop his megalomania. In both depictions, Flora, Keiren, and the Edinmire Girl, appear to be children in comparison to Trace, whereas, in the current events, Trace is 24, and Keiren appears to be in his 20s, as is Maren. Both Keiren and Maren have not met in the current events of the comic due to the circumstances surrounding Maren's arrival in Edinmire.

As such, without further information, it is impossible to definitively confirm or deny the identity of the Edinmire Girl.

Karen and Maren's Parents (SSE)
Not much is known about Karen and Maren's Parents, beside that the actions of Tanlen, resulted in their father's death at least some time prior to the current events of the comic.

Neither are discussed in the comic, likely due to the opening of old wounds.

As Maren took over the Tavern upon being orphaned, it is likely that their mother died separately at least some time prior or afterwards (E.G. during the childbirth of Karen, or due to illness), however, it is within the realm of possibility Tanlen's actions resulted in the deaths of both parents, instead of just one.

The death of Karen and Maren's father likely occurred within the four years prior to the current events of the comic if Maren and the Edinmire Girl are one and the same. However, he may have died earlier if their mother was still alive for a period after his death.

The effect of the deaths of the Taverndatter parents are apparent in Maren, who is "emotional one minute, distant the next".

These effects appear more negligible on Karen, who, on the other hand, appears to be friendly to people of all people, regardless of race, which is also an indicator that she has either forgiven Tanlen for his actions, her father's death occurred when she was young enough to not remember or realize the extent of what happened, or both.

Eric and Roderick Vaughan's Parents (SSE)
Nothing much is known about Eric Vaughan's Parents besides their role as such, alongside being parents to Eric's older brother Roderick. Eric's father has made no physical appearance but was likely a Human and his mother made a small cameo in the Side Sketch titled "Young Kathrin and Eric" but here face was obscured off panel. Besides the previously mentioned information the only other time they are referred to is in Mike and Evals Character Reference Sheet, stated as being the original owners of the slave duo. Eric's parents are never mentioned in the Main Comic but are confirmed deceased. They were the owners and possibly founders of the Vaughan Trading Company, a small family merchant business specialising in many forms of cargo as well as presumably Keidran slaves. They owned several slaves before they past, those being Mike and Evals as mentioned as well as Kathrin, however she was treated more as a pet as she grew up and remained that way doing less arduous tasks than her fellow slaves.

The personality of Eric's father is unknown as he is never seen and only mentioned by brief reference, Eric's mother who is seen at one point appeared to be very strict and angry when she caught a young Eric playing with Kathrin. The fate of Eric's parents is confirmed, the two of them are deceased, though the circumstances of their deaths is unclear. The relationship between Roderick and his parents is never spoken about but Roderick mentioned being the owner of Kathrin it one point, suggesting that his parents may have trusted the slaves to him originally though he may have been referring to his better right of ownership due to being the older brother while their parents were still alive. The possibility also exists that beucase of Roderick's actually inherited the Vaughan Trading Company first but his involvement with the Templar ment he had little time to own slaves or run his family's company so that may have been the cuase for Eric becoming the owner of such instead.

King Torval
King Torval was the former Human King. As of Page 344 it was reported that he had been assassinated by the Forest Wolf Tribe, this event caused the already poor relations between the Wolves and the Humans to escalate past the minor racism that the two had shown for each other. The extent of the ongoing war between the Wolves and Humans has been relatively unknown although examples such as the Templar March seen on Pages 598-600 aswell as the attack on Edinmire by Clovis' Guild seem to show that fighting is present in multiple areas. The King's death also seemed to pressure the Humans into gaining the favor of the Tiger Clans, as seen by the Tiger Meetings held in Edinmire where the Wolves attempted to intervene.

What the King's personality or his appearance was like is unknown due to him never being seen alive on panel. His direct descendant is also not known and it's left unclear who now rules the Human Kingdom, if anyone at all.

Travel is one of the guards in Edinmire under the command of Keiren and is tasked with helping put out the fires caused by Clovis' rogue "templar" Wolf Keidran.

Tanlen
Tanlen, or Tan- as he is partly referred to during his one brief reference in the main comic, was a Keidran servant who's actions, whether intentional or otherwise is currently unknown, resulted in the death of Maren and Karen's father when they were young. Tanlen's name was confirmed by Tom within his description of Maren on the "Maren and Karen Ref Sheet" Side Sketch, whereas the one mention of his name in the comics is cut off mid-pronouciation.

His physical appearance is unknown due to having only been mentioned. Given Red's decision to discontinue his explanation to Raine of why Maren is "emotional one minute, distant the next" mid-naming, Tanlen is likely one of the sub-species of Wolf Keidran. Which sub-species in question is difficult to positively identify given the lack of information, however, due to Maren being more apprehensive towards Sythe in particular (even after learning of Raine's Arctic Wolf Keidran form), it is likely that Tanlen is a Forest Wolf Keidran.

Red was aware of how sensitive the topic of Tanlen, was, we are currently unaware if his reasoning is that Maren is particularly affected by Tanlen being mentioned or whether he was just being considerate. Maren and Karen never discuss their father or Tanlen themselves which could suggest they have moved on in a sense, though unlike her younger sister (who may not have been old enough to know her father) Maren still holds some resentment towards the Keidran for what happened.

The fate of Tanlen is unknown as he has not been seen in comic nor has his story, beyond the aforementioned details, been elaborated on. It is likely, by the events of the main comic, that he may have passed away due to the relatively short lifespan of a Keidran, (up to around 20 to 30 years). If he was old enough to be conscious that his actions would have fatal results (between 5 and 7 at the youngest), the events of the comic likely take place, at most (given Maren's age of 20, and 5 years being approximately the youngest age at which a person can retain memories), 15 years after the death of the Taverndatter's father, placing his age at up to 20 years.

If Maren and the Edinmire Girl, are one and the same, the Taverndatter's father likely died within the four years prior to the current events of the comic, while Maren was between 16 and 20, and Karen, between 12 and 16, as, unless their mother was still alive at the time, Maren began operating the tavern in Pinewood after his death to provide a means for survival to herself and Karen.

Natani and Zen's Parents
Natani and Zen's Parents were presumably killed in an attack on Natani and Zen's village when they were young, leaving the two orphaned. Much how Trace attempted to resurrect Saria au Gruhen, Natani was desperate to bring their parents back and created a dark magic spell, named "Heart's Desire", self-testing it on multiple occasions in attempts to perfect the spell resurrect the two orphans parents. The spell did not work however and could only bring back living images of what the target individual knows about their heart's desire. Natani had sadly forgotten the faces and voices of their parents, resulting in the spell's failure, forming only faceless forms of what they may have looked like.

The Heart's Desire spell in it's final form has been used in the comic twice by Natani, and both times, the target was Keith. First, when Natani and Zen were attempting to assassinate Trace, Flora, and Keith, and later when Keith requested that Natani use the spell on him, to bring back Laura so he can have some closure.

Unfortunately Natani's efforts were in vain, as even if the spell completely manifests, or, if the spell achieves it's original purpose, which may have been the case with Laura, and resurrects the person's heart's desire, the spell drains away the life force of the target, possibly leading to severe asthenia if the victim ends the spell, or death if the victim refuses to let go.

Theire Sah-Van
Tigress 37, or Theire Sah-Van as she was later dubbed by Tom, has been featured in just over a dozen unique Side Sketches including that of a series of sketches depicting a hypothetical relationship between her and Edinmire militiamen Daniels. In terms of physical appearance she is a standard Tiger Keidran with black, white and orange fur, she does not have extra human like hair like many other Keidran have and instead has her fur tried back in a short ponytail as if her fur was her hair. She wears clothing despite being presumably a wild Keidran nomad like her cousin and fellow Tigers, she sports a cut dress made out of brown cloth along with another piece of cloth wrapped around her chest to act as a bra.

In the Main Comics she has no lines of dialogue but is referred to by Aerith that during the Tiger Meetings happening in town she is attempting to "get a guard out of his armour" before the first night as part of a bet the two made. Theire can be seen in a few panels in the backround during Chapter 18 hanging around a militiamen referd to as Daniels, visibly trying to flirt with him. Her main appearances occur in the non-canon Side Sketches as previously mentioned, always alongside Daniels. In her many appearances she is shwon flirting with Daniels, although this isn't confirmed canon these interactions were likely happening off panel during Chapter 18. Her biggest appearance comes from the hypothetical situations their cross-species relationship would have caused if they went further past the mere bet that she was originally talking to Daniels in the first place for, some of these situations include introducing both of their respective parents to one another. Whether in the Main Comics Thiere actually had any genuine feelings for Daniels in unknown and the current whereabouts of the two is unclear, however they are possibly aiding in the rebuilding of Edinmire as of present.

Aerith
Theire Sha-Van's Cousin from the Main Comics or Aerith as she was later dubbed by Tom on May 20th 2018 during a Sketch Stream is a minor Tiger character seen in Chapter 19. Appearance wise is a typical female tiger Keidran, covered in black, white and orange fur. She is seen wearing a purple and black dress during her first appearance when she is seen walking towards the center of Edinmire, where the tiger peace meetings between the Tiger Clan and the human Templar are taking place. She and her friend Iris are in the middle of discussing rumors about humans when they are approached by Flora who asks them why they, as wild Keidran, would come to a human town.

Unlike Iris, Aerith is much less hostile towards Flora, even going as far as to tell Iris to stop being so mean. She is later seen again with Iris at the meetings themselves and then again watching on in fear as the Clovis' Guild attacked the town disguised as rogue Templar.

Details about her later dubbed name Aerith during the Sketch Stream of "Mean Girls" can be found here.

Evals' Family
Evals ' Family is a group of about two dozen or so of Eval's immediate family, that being his multiple brothers and sisters, with twice as many cousins. Evals mentions them in Chapter 20 when talking to Mike and Flora about his plans now that he is no longer a slave. In terms of appearance, they are all typical dog Keidran, like Evals, covered fully in brown fur. Nothing is really known about Evals' family except they live back in dog Keidran territory and he hasn't seen them in a long time due to his enslavement. Now that Evals has been freed, he intends to return to them. It can be assumed his family is a lot older than shown within the comic since Evals only remembers them from when he was young himself.

Not much is known about their individual personalities due to their lack of appearance in outside of Evals' memories in the main comics.

Erilas (SSE)
Erilas is presumably one of Evals' older sisters in the canon of the main comics however she has only been featured twice in non-canon Side Sketches talking to Mike at one point and Eric Vaughan at another. Her fur is a combination of various browns, ranging from cream for her coat and a light brown for her hair; with very pronounced purple eyes. Erilas wears a buttoned white long-sleeve shirt under a grey corset accompanied with a black ruff; along with white stockings, a dark skirt, and glasses.

As mentioned above she has been featured in the non-canon Side Sketches twice. In her first appearance she is shown talking to Mike, she states, after the implication that she was in heat at the time, that she takes great pride in being a "civilized canine", but isn't above teasing Mike either, suggesting that if he came with them, "it might test my resolve". In her second appearance having a conversation with Eric, depicting them first meeting, Eric attempts to flirt with Erilas, only for her to bring up that he enslaved her younger brother. Eric jokes that a date would be out of the question, and Erilas remarks that it wouldn't happen if she where in heat and he was the last man alive. Her current whereabouts in the Main Comics are unknown but she is the only member of Evals' family to be portrayed in a current day age, this contrasts the younger memory versions of his other relatives seen. If she is alive in the present day and her existence is canon it is possible she is still living in Dog Keidran territory with the rest of Evals' family.

Flora's Mom (SSE)
Flora 's Mom is mentioned in, but does not appear within the main comics. She only appears within the non-canon Side Sketches twice. In both appearances she is seen with Trace and Flora in hypothetical meetings. Flora's mom may be alive within the main comics, as we don't know which "family" Sythe was referring to when he told Flora that Trace killed them, but her canon appearance or personality has never been seen, nor has she been mentioned any further, so although her mother's fate is never strictly mentioned it can be inferred that she has been deceased in the canon Main Comics for quite some time. Her appearances in the side sketches only reflect a hypothetical version of her. Like most Tiger Keidran, she is covered in orange and white fur with black stripes. In the side sketches, she wears a long dress with fur-like rims around the waist and neck. Also around her neck is a necklace of large stones.

Her personality is shown through both of her appearances in the Side Sketches. In her first appearance when is portrayed as a bit of a "gold digger", seeing the economic potential in Trace's engagement to her daughter. During her second appearance in the sketches she is shown staring eagerly at Trace while a thought bubble shows her thinking about his status in the Templar and his large amounts of money. She is also shown to be quite flirty, in another sketch depicting her first meeting with Trace she teased Flora about him, only to turn and whisper to Trace that it doesn't have to be teasing if he wanted it to be, suggesting if she were still around she may have found Trace attractive herself.

As mentioned above the current status of Flora's Mom is unknown however it has been inferred on a least one occasion she, in whatever canon form she existed, has been deceased for quite a long time.

King Ravlen
Ravlen is stated by Keith to have been a former King of the Eastern Basitins. He has not been seen physically due to being deceased by the beginning of the comic, unless one of the statues seen on page 347 is a depiction of previous kings. Nothing is else is known about him beside his position as King, except that he was a male Basitin. It is unknown how long he ruled but it at least encompassed the year 221, it's unknown who the direct successor for him was after his reign ended.

Western Basitin Sisters
These three Western Basitin Sisters are seen after Carver's teleportation spell is interfered with, causing him to appear on a beach somewhere within the Eastward half of Basidian Islands. They are dressed in typical Western Basitin cloth robes and have white tribal markings painted along their limbs. While two of the sisters have a shade of brown for fur color, brown being the normal color of both East and Western Basitins, the third sister actually has black fur which makes her the only known black-furred Basitin.

Upon meeting Carver, two of the sisters immediately hold him at spear-point demanding to know what he is doing on their island. The all appear to be highly suspicious and hostile to Carver, or at least eldest sisters do.

Musclehead General
The Musclehead General, also known as the Arms General was one of the three leading Generals of the Eastern Basitin Kingdom. He is the only General not to be givien an actual name. The role of the Arms General appeared to be centered around commanding the troops themselves. In terms of appearance, the Musclehead General looks similar to most Basitin, however what set him apart from other Basitin was his heavy golden armor made in a style only he was seen wearing. He also appeared to be very physically fit and strong, a trait that can be assumed contributed to his role as Arms General, as well as being the largest Basitin known, with the exception of the Eastern Basitin King herself.

As far as personality was concerned, he acted like a typical Basitin solider would, loyal to a fault, but seemed slightly self loving and prideful exclaiming how only his "body is the only weapon I need to achieve victory!". He fought Natani and Flora and defeat them when they attempted to reach Trace who was being imprisoned by the Templar present on the Bastadian Isle at the time, defeating and knocking them out easily. After taking them to a jail like building to keep them detained. After awaking Natani and Flora found the remains of the Musclehead General who he was killed by Edmund Sirus, although the two of them did not know this. Although he acted as an antagonist to the main cast Flora did mention that "He didn't deserve to die", at least not the way he did.

Tom was going to make it so that Flora and Natani presumably defeated the Arms General by removing Flora's ankle wraps and clothing items, leading to a catastrophic nosebleed. It was cut from the comic because of time constraints and Tom felt it seemed a bit sexist to have the two defeat him in that manner. He later released it on DeviantArt as the Musclehead Fight Retcon.

Madelyn Adelaide's Father (SSE)


Madelyn Adelaide 's Father is a side sketch exclusive character that makes a total of three appearances in separate sketches. The existence of Madelyn's father is obviously real, otherwise she would have not been born, but the depictions of her father in the sketches, unless corroborating information is introduced in the comic, are non-canon, even if someone who was Madelyn's father would have had to exist. His whereabouts in the main comics is unknown and he is never mentioned. He is depicted with a typical Eastern Basitin shade of brown fur, specifically a darker shade when being compared to King Adelaide's lighter fur. His most notable feature is his small size for a Basitin, a trait which was passed on to his daughter. A common theme with his appearances is the lack of his full face ever being shown, he is either depicted from behind or the image is slightly cut off before his eyes, the image shown here is the closest shot of him in his entirety.

In terms of personality not much is known about him other than he is quite a determined individual, climbing to the top of the Eastern Basitin Castle's tallest tower to meet King Adelaide properly, a feat that impressed her initially due to his small stature. If we were to assume these three side sketches are canon, the extent of the relationship he had with King Adelaide, Madelyn's mother, is unknown besides the following information. In the first sketch ever to show Madelyn's Father takes place during the Basitin Coronation Tournament, wherein Basitin fight it out to determine the next King by means of pure strength including hand-to-hand fighting. At one point the soon-to-be King Adelaide and Madelyn's Father took part in a sparing match against one another and exchanged some flirty taunts before their fight began. It should be noted that despite his small size being a key feature Madelyn's Father still took place in the Coronation Tournament and even faced Jade Adelaide, who was the largest Basitin on the island, further showing his determined nature. Madelyn's father was so determined to see King Jade Adelaide again, that he climbed the tower in order to meet again. The two may have slept together the night that he climbed up the Castle Tower, and if not, they did at some later time. Whether or not this was the only instance the two slept together is unknown, but, if so, it can be assumed Madelyn was conceived that night. In canon, due to the long time skip of 16-17 years between Madelyn's conception and the current events of the comic, whether or not he is alive, and his current whereabouts are left a mystery. If he is still alive somewhere within the main comic universe he is probably in his 40s-50s as he appeared to be around the same age as King Adelaide.

Ol' Rinehold
Ol' Rinehold is a native of unknown species (likely Human), and currently mentioned only once, who has reported suspicious activity numerous times to the Edinmire guard, who, in turn discovered little to no evidence of his claims. Much to their ironic frustration, he accurately reported suspicious wolven activity near the Riftwall East Tavern, which was ignored enough that the wolves could begin their attack in Chapter 18. His history of there being no notable activity caused the guards not to believe his reports even when he was telling the truth, which alludes to the folk story "The Boy Who Cried Wolf." Ol' Rinehold's report to Daniels is likely the reason that Adira, and possibly her daughter, Maeve, were taken by a guard or fake guard at the end of Chapter 20.
