Introduced in “Flyaway”, Inaya is a woman scorned. Rather than focus on the pain, she does all she can to move past it. She wants only to find peace within herself. She reminds herself that life is still worth living by wearing colorful wraps and headscarves. Even though she’s turned very deeply inward, she still runs a pawnshop in a small mountain town and somehow managed to befriend Sylus through a very personal project.

Saari is the last of the Q’taxians. Rejected by her people and marked for death, she was delivered to Qaitax as a sacrifice. Instead, he raised her to high priesthood and she came to revere him as a father figure. The history of her people dictates this as the exact moment their society began to collapse.
Saari has long mutated away from any genetic commonalities for her species and refuses to identify with them. She stands on a spire of tendrils adorned in long white robes with violet trim. Horns protrude where her eyes would be, and a sack of liquid takes the place of her lower jaw. She speaks, eats, and manages to emote through this sack.
Saari wields a staff of petrified tentacles as her main weapon of choice and conduit. She is a crystal shaper by trade.

Edie appears as a common brown bat, however there is much more to her than meets the eye. She is frequently found at Jeron’s side or in his pockets. Though she is unable to speak in a traditional manner, Edie does her best to offer him guidance throughout the series.
She has access to a realm Jeron has come to call Eternity in which time seems to come to a halt.
She has also alluded to knowing far more about the Void than she is able to communicate.

An ornery old tailor engrossed in his own fineries, Finn is an ally of Sylus’ and the designer of his violet attire. Finn takes exceptional pride in his work and will never settle for anything less than his absolute best. All while he, himself, looks like he was plucked from a garbage can and brushed off before being put to work. He has a rough disposition, but is ultimately a well-meaning guy.

Castor is an ally of Sylus’. He is described as traditionally handsome and has the odd tick of repeating a person’s name. Castor is a Dalafaem and gifted mechanic.
He is introduced in “Two Minutes to Midnight” as the mechanic Sylus enlists to help repair Jeron’s truck. The merger of Voidal and human tech was entirely Castor’s doing.
He briefly returns in “Flyaway” before engrossing himself in a new, critical project.

A town staple of Ortzuna, Adelaide Crenshaw is an older woman who usually gets around with the aid of a walker.
Adelaide is a veteran of the Dire War. She served as a combat medic in some of the most brutal battles of the conflict.
Widowed at a young age, Adelaide finds herself frequently reminiscing about a time when she was truly happy.

Who or what Qaitax is is unclear. All that’s known for certain is that he shares a body with Sylus and takes control when “fatal” injuries are endured. He champions himself a Voidlord that’s lived countless lives and recognizes himself as being trapped in an unending cycle of conflict with the Void. He believes that if he can defeat the Void, he can finally find peace. He is abrasive and inconducive to change. The only mortals he tolerates are Sylus and Saari.
Qaitax’s attributes are the same as Sylus save for the fact that he takes on a “feral and exceptionally unsettling” façade over Sylus’ generally soft features when in control.
Mythically perfect, Myrim passed away when Jeron was 12. She suffered from rapid onset dementia at a young age. She was loved and adored by all who met her. A naturally charismatic leader, she was considered the defacto mayor of Ortzuna and orchestrator of all their public events. Every Sunnar, her voice would fill the chapel with hymns rendered straight from the logos. Her death left a heavy cloud over all those who knew her.

Jeron’s oppressive father. Mason, bound in prophecy, was never kind to his son. He carried a heavy burden after his wife, Myrim Miles, tragically passed away. He blames Jeron for her death and entraps his son with a lifetime of atonement. He is haunted by his how much Jeron looks like his mother as a result, if fate has bound him to her memory, then so, too, will he bind their only child.

Appearance: Sylus is borderline ridiculously large in every possible way. He walks a fine line between realistic and cartoonish proportions, but that’s the way he likes it. He wears a black suit, deep purple vest, violet silk shirt, matching tie with silver shot, and patent leather shoes. He often forgoes the dress jacket and simply rolls up his sleeves. Sylus has no skin color. None. He is devoid of any form of melanin due to his body being made of an alien substance called V’rilk. Thick eyebrows adorn soft, hooded violet eyes that fluctuate between being human and appearance and those of a starry-eyed Lord. He has a well kempt head of hair, thick sideburns, and a full face of hair to match. While his whole body is composed of unseen tendrils, he sometimes sports his dorsal tentacles. More often than not, however, he appears mostly human.

Sylus Synclaire is a man of single purpose: Protect his son at all costs. He joined with a transient eldritch god to make sure he could be the unstoppable bulwark he needed to be.
Life was never kind to him. Love has always been something he’s desired, but accepted would never be his. Until he has a rather impactful run-in with an unusual mortal: Jeron Miles. Then, and only then, does his perspective on life and love begin to change.
*He shares his body with Qaitax allowing for a complex dynamic between the two consciousnesses and their relationship with their shared body. Qaitax generally stays back and acts outwardly solely as a safety net. Though Qaitax adopted Sylus’ visage, he still carries his own malice and disdain for mortals openly. No matter how similar their forms, its impossible to confuse the two.

Appearance: Jeron is a tall, fit man with long dark-brown dreadlocks held back by a simple brown bandana. He has darker sepia brown complexion and unusual sharp blue eyes. When not dressed for work (black pants, button up white shirt, black apron, ankle boots), he dons a white tank top and a pair of green khaki capris accompanied by the same pair of ankle boots that once belonged to his mother. Simple, comfortable, flexible. That’s all he really needs.
Species: Human Gender: Jeron was born a boy and was forced to grow into a man well before his time. He solidly identifies with his birth gender, but does not confine his expression of self to societal norms. Pronouns: He/Him Orientation: Queer Height: 6′ 4″ Age: 32 Earth Years Weight: 195lbs Build: Agile Fit Natural Eye Color: Blue Family: Mason Miles (father), Myrim Miles (mother, deceased) Voidal Hierarchy: Archon Magic Type: Blood Proficiency: Audiomancy Primary Conduit: His mother’s guitar
Until the events of Eternity’s Irys, Jeron has lived with his father in the small west coast town of Ortzuna, toiling his life away in the family diner in an endless attempt to atone for a childhood tragedy. He knows enough about the world around him to be tormented by wanderlust, but not enough to tempt him away from his duties.
That is, of course, until he violently meets the rotund half-breed Voidlord, Sylus Synclaire.
