Inhabitants of Argaia

This list contains names of non-Phoenixborn inhabitants of Argaia. Those details were read or heard throughout articles and interviews.

Aaron

  • Father of Aradel Summergaard. Had deep blue eyes. Had a great relationship with his daughter.
  • Very influential to her growing up since her mother passed away shortly after her birth following a mix of health issues and a complicated birth. Was a big part of Aradel becoming the Phoenixborn that she is and of great help to her in the Great Cleansing.
  • He was someone who was very, very well respected in the Evermist Valley. He was seen as a leader, someone people would look for advice.
  • During the Great Cleansing, the Valley was under attack. The Phoenixborn present were all being taken piece by piece. Being along Aradel’s side, he jumped in front of a poison needle that was meant for her. He passed away, saving her.

Alibrimbor

  • Phoenixborn and prophet.
  • Prophecy: “When the last Phoenixborn emerges screaming from the womb, a lust for war shall enter the hearts of all their siblings. For those saviors who delivered humanity from the Chimera are but pieces of a whole, and the whole shall demand assemblage. Not breeding, not morality, nor purity of spirit shall deliver the children of the Phoenix from madness and bloodshed. They shall rage against each other, consume one another, and their hunger will not be assuaged until but a single remaining survivor arises as a true Phoenix, and mounting the throne of God, rules over this world, the next, and all the realms that lie in-between.”
  • “The danger of the Phoenix lies not in the threat of war. Someone always survives, no matter how terrible the ravages of a war. No, the danger posed by the Phoenix is the threat against reality itself, for it drives us not just into conflict, but to sculpt and reshape all that we see around us. When the Collection of Ashes concludes, will humans even recognize the world they are left with?”

Amurai

  • Name given to members of Vermillion Council’s army. Fearless warriors. Some fights alongside the Phoenixborn during the Great Cleansing.
  • The Council ceased training and disbanded them a few years after the Great Cleansing, which was decades ago.

Ancestor Ari

Astor Redmoon[1]

  • Phoenixborn of Viros, older sister of Noah Redmoon.
  • With brother Moses, they were well respected, very good and some of the most powerful Phoenixborn that had never been seen before.
  • Was killed in a strange situation. An incredibly powerful Chimera was tasked specifically to take down the three siblings. But during the fight, a second one showed up and forced the Redmoon into splitting up. The end result was that both Astor and Moses were killed, but not Noah. And then, the Chimera just left, to never be seen again.

Darius

Elga Trilling

  • Human, old woman born in Goldwater, founder and former editor of The Weekly Highriver. Has amassed a small fortune in her morning years.
  • Foreigner inhabitant of Gorrenrock.
  • Made a successful career out of being a political weathervane.
  • Ask to meet with Lulu Firststone but the request was denied.
  • Made a deal with “a low man”, and “the firm”, to bring revenge on Rowan Umberend’s head for what he has done.

Farial

Felix Galeforce

  • Young Phoenixborn, face up against Maeoni Viper in Silverwood plaza. Was killed by Maeoni’s silver snakes.

Final Pythia

  • Mystic from Delphi.
  • Has been issuing cryptic statements regarding Jericho Whitepetal, the usually isolated Phoenixborn of Abylon.
  • “In my dream I saw a great war; one long-fought over many years, and in the end there was but a single victor. A true Phoenix, she was like a second sun, and I wept at the sight of her. But the dream ended, as all are wont to do. What portent was revealed by this nocturnal whimsy? I feel that something has happened, as if the world itself was changed but no one was ever informed. My world is identical to the world of my dream, save for one detail. The victor. Why is she and she alone unique between these worlds? What has she done?”
  • The Pythia’s words are frustratingly vague as if she fears Jericho but more greatly fears the rest of the world understanding why.
  • “The vision unfolded before me and I saw two great fiery birds arise from the depths. One smoldered as it burst from the ocean and as it spread its wings, it carried upon its train a host of lifeforms never before seen by human eyes. The other arose from cracked recesses within the ground, its cries speaking the language of ruin, and upon its head was stamped the name of Blasphemy. I cannot explain why, yet I am certain this was my final revelation. Whatever is yet to come, I do not think I shall survive it.”

Flock Shepherd

  • Flock Shepherds have a storied past as citizens of Gobi. Once the great Gobi Sunshield warriors, they have since retired their armor to take up the homesteading practices needed to reestablish their recently-nomadic community of New Gobi.

Gerald Bywater

  • Human, captain of the famous ship, Crusty Heel.

Lady Mennan

Last Dragon

Lyn

Lord Mayor

Mauger Fleissman

  • Human from Lordswall. A foreman.
  • “We didn’t do anything wrong. The mine had been sealed up as we always do when one peters out. But then the rains started. Water must have built up in the old tunnels, ‘cause one day the whole thing washed out. When we investigated, we found a strange cluster of crystal growing inside, where afore there was naught. Clea touched the damn thing, and that’s when everything went to hell.”

Michael Glassfire

Moses Redmoon[1]

  • Phoenixborn of Viros, Older brother of Noah Redmoon.
  • With sister Astor, they were well respected, very good and some of the most powerful Phoenixborn that had never been seen before.
  • Was killed in a strange situation. An incredibly powerful Chimera was tasked specifically to take down the three siblings. But during the fight, a second one showed up and forced the Redmoon into splitting up. The end result was that both Astor and Moses were killed, but not Noah. And then, the Chimera just left, to never be seen again.

Pirate King

  • Slavers that ruled/plagued the city of Abylon. Were all stalked and killed by Jericho Kill.

Sergeant Crystalmere

Taya

  • Human thief. Was killed by Rimea Careworn while trying to rob her massive chamber.

Tillian Marlowe

  • Human from Shadowreck. Is the city administrator.
  • “The sprawling caverns under our city had long been a boon, helping us break sieges and blockades alike. But when the Red Rains returned, and the foul waters drained into the dark places beneath our streets, we could not imagine what would be born in the shadowy below. Our first clue was when our recent smuggling problem vanished almost overnight.”[2]
  • “Defenders came to our aid, each one of them a legend. But when the fighting started we could only seek shelter and hide away. I know the Phoenixborn wielded powerful magic, but none who witnessed them could comprehend what was happening.”[3]
  • “On the third day of fighting, there was a sound like an enormous door creaking open, and with that the town hall sunk into the ground, vanishing from sight into the black abyss below.”[4]
  • “I asked the heroes to stay with us, that we might honor them with a feast. To our sadness, they all declined, save the mad woman who happily let us celebrate her. She ended up staying a week. It was very trying.”[5]
  • “Once we learned of the Chimera beneath us, we greatly minimized our casualties by issuing orders for our citizens to stay at home. But on the fifth day of battle, the beast emerged from the sinkhole that had devoured the town hall, and for a brief moment, we feared all was lost. Gods, how I wish I had not laid unhappy eyes upon it!”[6]
  • “I told Lord Redmoon it was a blessing that none of the brave Phoenixborn were lost to the monster. He took off his mask and looked at me, and asked me why I said such a thing. I stammered a bit, unsure of the query. His voice sounded irritated, and he demanded to know why I was so sure they hadn’t all died. Then he laughed, his dead eyes smiling at me, and he turned and walked away.”[7]
