Isolvelle is the eldest Blackmont daughter. Having been only five at the time of her mother’s death, Isolvelle became capable and mature at a young age. She is a passionate woman, quick of temper, and sharp of tongue and mind. (Aged 23)

Cereza has always been the thoughtful one of the lot. Her cautionary words have saved Isolvelle from numerous unnecessary confrontations. Her advice is always sound, her eyes are always open, and while she does not speak so much as any of her sisters, she is a wonderful listener in more ways than one. (Aged 22)

Nuez developed her sense of humor early on—she often played in the yard with Isolvelle, who enjoyed the sports of war, and while she enjoyed the exertion and the fresh air, she never had the same taste for blood which had always been so characteristic of Isolvelle. Nuez is a charming, playful girl who delights in the company of other carefree souls. (Aged 20)

Tier Two Characters:

Endrina and Castanya Blackmont;

In two words, the twins would be described as ‘a handful.’ (Aged 18)

Skills: Persuasion and Oration

Higo Sands;

Higo is the bastard son of a distantly connected Martell man—neither his father, nor any of his legitimate sons would ever have stood to inherit the Sun-throne, but their blood, and thus the blood of the Martells runs in Higo. He is a regal man, often quiet, and serves as the closest advisor to Isolvelle Blackmont. Their relationship has often been one of speculation, and there once circulated rumors that he had saved her life once upon a time, and since then, the woman never keen to trust had become indebted to Higo, and had loved him in her own way, and sometimes hated him too for having done what she could not do herself in saving her. (Aged 26)

Skills: Fighting and Wilderness Lore

Brecol Yronwood;

Brecol was fostered at Blackmont, a distant cousin of the Yronwoods of Yronwood, and remained at the castle even after reaching manhood. He had been raised in the castle, and knew the Blackmont girls as sisters—he and Cereza had always been particularly close. She grounded him, and he brought a smile to her face. (Aged 22)

Skills: Leadership and Endurance

Ajo Blackmont;

Ajo is the son of Sauco Blackmont, the younger brother of Nopal. Sauco died in battle with rogue foragers from the deep mountains, and his wife and son came to live at Blackmont from their small keep. Fever took Ajo’s mother, (who had done her best to help raise all of the children having arrived rather late) when he was ten years old. (Aged 21)

Skills: Stealth and Deception
