Rom

Grand Magister Isabella (She/Her)

  • Connection Weaver. Friendly, but not necessarily nice. Has a penchant for trading memories. In charge of the Council of Rom, not only due to her political acumen, and desire to actually do the admin, but because she's the only magister that all of the others can stand to be around.

Has recently bankrolled several expeditions to recover tools and sources of power deemed too dangerous by the Bureaucracy, and is involved in a lot of planar or Outsider-related heists and thefts perpetrated by Great House Keelen.

Asher Kelvin (She/Her)

  • Final survivor of the Last Bastion, Kelvin is a genius Ichorwerker responsible for the creation of the monstrous Elect. Despite the destruction of her research laboratory, Kelvin was recovered by the Imperial Commission, who promptly punished her for her incredibly unethical experimentation by giving her a formal title, a research grant, and all the test subjects she could possibly need. A brush with the Awakened item Unit 11 has merely increased her megalomania and drive to perfect humanity.

Bastion Esposito (He/Him)

The End (They/Them)

  • Taking the form of a child this entity frequently travels to the mortal world to savour the deaths of the mighty. The attention of The End inhibits spiritual healing and to attack it is to subject oneself to the pressures of the abyssal depths.
