This article is a list of characters in the Gaera main universe that are played by or heavily associated with the RPer Archmage.

Archangel Christopher

The Archangel Christopher is a name that appears several times throughout history, usually in the background behind many layers of rumor and hearsay. An archangel of justice, Christopher's name appears many times in events that have shaped the history of Gaera, notably in Igala's War of the Heavens in the Forbidden Plains; Christopher was the celestial that initially lead the crusade against the encroaching prismatic dragons. Eventually, Christopher even took a mortal lover, a Prandian woman named Justine Prentiss, and she bore him a son, Darin.

But happiness was not to be Christopher's fate, for his duties as a celestial took him away from his new family often enough that he was unable to stop Justine from being killed by Prandian military officials that sought to raise Darin as a half-celestial "super soldier." Wracked with grief, Christopher eventually retreated to a corner of the celestial plane devoid of life commonly referred to as "despair in paradise." Whether Christopher created this area specifically to provide himself with a place to brood or it existed prior to his period of depression is uncertain.

Christopher later decided it was necessary to destroy Darin, both to prevent him from being corrupted by mortals and to erase all traces of his mistaken belief that he could co-exist happily with mortals. His efforts were thwarted mostly by Darin's close friend, Hakaril Silvar. He also played a role in the war against Elaith Thenswick by alerting Myrnal Shalienza, Corrigan Heavensent, Ardam Elmine and Rildyn to the presence of the Codex of Infinite Wisdom and by leading a celestial army against Elaith's undead forces.

Ardam Elmine

Ardam Elmine
Birthplace:	Branwithe, Kalshana
Height:	5' 8"
Job:	Paladin of Kazeros
Affiliation:	None (Kazeros)
Weapon(s):	Longsword
Weapon Name(s):	Kazeros' Edge (formerly Silversong)

RPer:	Archmage

Ardam Elmine is a holy warrior of sorts who grew up in a fringe city in southwestern Doma. The primary religion of the people of the area, being primarily frontiersmen and rangers, was the worship of Kazeros, the god of freedom. Ardam, then, grew up revering freedom and righteousness like many of his neighbors, but unlike most of the townsfolk, Ardam had a special connection to the deity he worshipped. Even the clerics of Kazeros failed to understand Ardam's spontaneously developed gifts for communing with the divine and channeling spiritual energies, but Ardam had a vague notion that he was meant for great things in the future. As he grew up, he served as part of the town militia and as a healer of the sick and injured, putting his talents to good use whenever possible.

Inspired to seek out adventure, the the young-adult Ardam often left the village for days or even weeks at a time, trying to find interesting things to do, people to meet, and injustices to overcome. Finally, one night, he had a prophetic dream describing a great evil on the horizon. It was his solemn duty as a champion of freedom to hunt down and destroy all those who would use magic to oppress the free people of the world. And so, charged by his god, Ardam set off in search of a vague enemy he had yet to meet. When Ardam met up with Corrigan Heavensent, Myrnal Shalienza, and Rildyn, he found that not only was his quest on the side of the right, but that he had many powerful and willing allies who would travel with him and combat injustices wherever they might be. When they discovered that the root of the evil brewing on the continent was the obsessive necromancer Elaith, Ardam eventually decided that he needed to pursue Elaith on his own, spurred forth by more prophetic visions...

Fenn Foxfire

The village in eastern Kalshana that Fenn Foxfire grew up in no longer exists—when he was a small child, it was razed by a party of drow warriors, coincidentally lead by the dark dragoon, Kage Sentan. Fairly young at the time, Fenn was saved by a group of wolves who answered his pleas for help and fended off a number of drow. Fenn, now orphaned, continued his study of animals and nature firsthand, and became a slightly hermetic, reclusive, contemplative fellow. For a very long time, Fenn travelled the countryside searching for Kage, hoping to bring him to justice for destroying his hometown, but a meeting with Diikoi Suzukun convinced him that not all that was drow was necessarily evil. Since then, Fenn has lived on the Forbidden Plains, doing his best to maintain harmony with nature and attempting to ensure that all who pass through the area do the same, freely giving of his wisdom to all who ask.

Minor NPCs

• Arachael the Sablewinged -- A shadow dragon-half who rallied an army of greedy dragons and dark dragoons to aid Elaith Thenswick. One of Elaith's right-hand men.
• Callibel -- Riss'ar's "brother," an angel living on the Celestial Plane. He invited Ardam, Corrigan, Myrnal, and Rildyn in for tea and provided them with much needed information about the Codex of Infinite Wisdom.
• The Business Hippie -- A druid in a village neighboring the Tuathan that operates a small store that deals in a variety of goods. His name is unknown to everyone, perhaps even himself. He is constantly seen smoking a form of hallucinogenic herb from an enormous pipe that resembles a bassoon.
• Count Landish -- A minor vampire who appeared in a chat RP. Posed as a patron of the arts and convinced Aya du Mythril-Domanda that she was a good singer in order to lure her into a trap.
• Graff LaRue -- A holy dragoon employed by Gunnir and role model for a young Hakaril Silvar.
• Meldon -- Not to be confused with the Neo Vanist, an evil high cleric of Reshtaha working under Elaith Thenswick. Still alive and a captive in Doman prison.
• Ethyn Prynne -- A blind demon hunter who possessed the Weave of Balance.
• Remus -- A mage that accidentally activated a beacon that drew ethereal creatures to attack a small town in Doma near a tower built by creatures known as Ethans in the chat RP Dimension Dancers.
• Sakhiel -- Apprentice to Elaith Thenswick. He attempted to backstab his master and was ultimately killed at his hands. Sacrificed on an altar to Nikumu by Myrnal Shalienza.
• Zelse -- A fallen angel responsible for the murders of many mortals. He recruited a fairly large following, but was slain by Riss'ar, Aya, Captain Pervy, and Kamos Mazuo in Riss'ar's quest for redemption.
