Allies and Friends

Lelezu Ririzu
"The Pharaoh's Bane"
A well-traveled explorer and at least partially famous archaeologist with a penchant for throwing sand at people. Lelezu runs his own museum of arcane finds, and is ever eager to explore new and dangerous locales to discover their secrets.

Golgoldi Goldi
"The Patroness"
After her very brave and very muscular roegadyn husband was devoured by an Ahriman, Goldi became a stalwart ally in DWC's quest to battle darkness. She serves as the company's preeminent financier, providing a large share of the jobs and funds that keep DWC in business.
T'mara
"The Mechanic"
A free-spirited and intelligent machinist who journeyed to Ishgard to share her skills with the world. Though her technical abilities are nothing to scoff at, she found a niche with her organization and administrative skills. She is a certified airship pilot.

Ignacio Noramus
"The Magus"
An ancient and very long-lived Sharlayan who found a home in La Noscea, Ignacio (or 'Blue' as he prefers) is a Warlock originally pacted to the voidsent Eligos, though that pipeline has since transferred to Asura. He has an archive of countless arcane artifacts.


Kogseguabragh
"The Boy"
A young Xaela with a name that sounds like you are coughing to cover up the fact that you cannot pronounce it. He is excitable and disobedient, and is convinced that he is the strongest Xaela in the world. (He is not.)

Conningway
"The #1 Rated Salesbunny"
Wanna buy a cat flap? Cat food? Catchup? Catamaran? You’ll be categorically catatonic at the catalog of categories I have at my hands. A cavalcade of all your favorite brands! An advertism schism cataclysm, cash on demand.
Anders
"The Saint"
An Alexandrian with a position of considerable influence, and friend to DWC. He is just about the nicest and most understanding person you will ever meet, and is willing to go out of his way to help all creatures great and small.

Gaethan Forsemart
"The Codger"
An aging former dark knight who, on rare occasion, has work or contact with DWC. He lives alone in the wilds of Coerthas and would much prefer not being bothered.



Zagan (Ouranos)
"The Tyrant"
Leader of ‘The Abyssal Conclave’ a royal court of voidsent nobles, Zagan was as arrogant as she was powerful. Her servants were involved in a scheme to create artificial Dark Knights for the Holy See. Since then, Zagan has been slain and her soul remains in permanent captivity.

Flavros (Crius)
"The Erudite"
Ever suspicious and theatrical, Flavros is a member of the Abyssal Conclave as the de-facto second in command. He commands a vast legion of incubi and succubi and prefers the pursuit of hedonistic delights over violent conquest. Flavros is fickle, and close friends with Gremory.
Gremory (Tethys)
"The Benefactor"
Manic and dangerous, Gremory is cursed with a special voidal power called 'Ouroboros' which prevents her death, even outside of the Void, by endlessly replicating her soul, and forcing the clone to murder the original. She is a purveyor of cursed treasures, and cultivates a number of aquatic monsters to do her bidding.

Astaroth (Hyperion)
"The Invincible"
Extraordinarily powerful, able to go toe-to-toe with Gods, Astaroth was the longtime lover and confidant of Zagan. Evil in the sense that he would trample any number of innocents and allow any amount of collateral damage in pursuit of a good fight. Astaroth generally does not get involved in politics, and enjoys a good challenge.


Naphula (Kronos)
"The Harvester"
The brains behind the Abyssal Conclave, Naphula was the one who brought the group together to forge a system where lesser servants like imps would collect aether like worker bees and bring it back to the hive. She was betrayed by her soulmate Valefar, and stripped of her powers, becoming mentor to DWC's Asura Cronus.

Berith (Iapetus)
"The Architect"
Irrational and maniacal, Berith is frequently found interfering with the lives of mortals through intricate plans and mysterious escape rooms. He is a builder at heart, constructing fiendish dungeons and hellish houses to inflict suffering on all he considers beneath him. Which is everyone.
Eligos (Coeus)
"The Insatiable"
The powerful but introverted craftsman of the Abyssal Conclave, Eligos created all of the strange artifacts and weapons his fellows used, preferring to stay out of the limelight. Naphula's attraction to him led to the Conclave's destruction, and saw Eligos's soul obliterated beyond repair.

Murmur (Mnemosyne)
"The Obscure"
The bookish and playful scribe of the Abyssal Conclave, Murmur had the ability to manifest people's memories as 'Flickers', which appear as ghostly afterimages. Murmur collects these Flickers in a vast library. She is also the author of the Daemonicum Maleficarum, a set of five very powerful books of magic.


Saleos (Theia)
"The Inscrutable"
Considered extraordinarily neutral for a voidsent, Saleos is the progenitor of pestilence and plague, seeing the need to purge sickness by delivering it. Adamant in their use of gender-neutral pronouns and physical appearances, their goals are often unknowable and esoteric. They are incapable of telling lies.

Dantalion (Ichnaea)
"The Just"
The arbiter of justice and advocate for balance, Dantalion expresses a belief in fairness and equality that sees death as a great liberator. A fierce combatant to her foes, but likely the last to draw steel, she has an icy demeanor and is not well loved by her peers in the Abyssal Conclave for a number of very strange hyper fixations.
Valefar (Rhea)
"The Collector"
A cruel and untrustworthy thief capable of stealing almost anything. He was the soulmate of Naphula until her indiscretions with Eligos turned Valefar mad with jealousy. He masterminded a coup that led to the dissolution of the Abyssal Conclave. Punished for his actions, he was stripped of his power and sealed away in a sub-realm to rot.

Balam (Oceanus)
"The Eraser"
The unknown twelfth member of the Conclave who never became an official member. She is both loved and hated as it was her original murder by Valefar (which was blamed on Eligos) that led to the chain of events that destroyed the conclave. She has an unquenchable desire to cause havoc, and wants nothing more than to kill every member of the Conclave.


Cacus
"The Legion"
Though he is not 'good' by any measure, Cacus tired of the ravenous scavenging voidsent had to do and consolidated his powers to hand out void pacts like a business. Due to the immense number of voidsent consumed working in concert with each other, Cacus has a vast array of powers which he shares in the form of 'boons', which are tokenized with resplendent red feathers.

Fulminto
"The Forbearing"
Bound through Cacus and avatar to Vahzyn, Fulminto keeps himself in a slumbering state until the call for aid rings. His loyalty is hard to earn - knowing well the nature of pacts between voidsent and mortal. But, he respects higher authority, and knows not to gamble for power. Afterall, a worse fate for a demon is to be consumed - one he avoids entirely.
Agmantius
"The Voidmage"
One of DWC's first enemies, he was a Mhachi Voidmage who sought to bring salvation to voidsent and prevent the Calamitous War by defecting to Amdapor. His experiments gave him a messiah complex, and his legacy led to the creation of a cult who sought his resurrection to make use of his powers.

Broken Dream
"The Resolved"
A succubus and lover of the voidmage Agmantius, Dream took her form from the body of a roegadyn that once lived in the Mhachi civilization. Her loyalty was devout, as was her love, which only made her heartbreak more violent when Agma chose to return to the aetherial sea rather than be resurrected. Dream was the leader of the 'Tenebris in Perpetuum' void cult.


Maljeffica
"The Succubus"
Known as 'She of the Hefty Bosom' Maljeffica (or just Jeff) is an occasional minor villain of DWC under a very strict set of rules that prevent her from causing actual harm to anyone. She tends to use her wits and seductiveness to convince men to do her bidding.

Blanca
"The Devourer"
A Duskwight whose devotion to the Twelveswood elementals was such that he agreed to become their champion and consume the souls of voidsent to erase them. Centuries of corruption turned him into an abomination who fed upon the souls of children and spread a plague throughout the forest.

Taboo
"The Jongleur"
The 'Boss' of Deadpan, a playful voidsent modeled after a harlequin. Though she is mostly an independent actor as far as void politics are concerned, she has not survived for countless centuries without insidious intelligence, and a penchant for violence.

Deadpan
"The Clown"
A mirthful voidsent that prefers the form of a grotesquely proportioned giant clown. Though quick to make jokes, they are often dark or depressing. Deadpan has a habit of not dying and coming back for more, concocting various schemes to cause trouble for DWC in pursuit of aether.
Radiadi Badiadi / Rad Bad
"The Devotee"
One of a family of sixteen Lalafellin cultists who use the dark arts to further for their own ends. Rad Bad was a prominent member of the 'Tenebris in Perpetuum' cult that sought to use control the voidsent 'Agma'. Rad Bad died trying to teleport from inside the DWC office, becoming a ghost that smells faintly of birthday cake.

Mew, Meow, & Nya
"The Freakin Cats"
We don't know anything about these cats. Are they voidsent? Are they Tural Vidraal? Are they Auspices? We just don't know. What we DO know is they keep randomly showing up acting cute and then dropkicking people off ledges or into lakes, with great success. They also don't die for some reason. So if you see one or more of these cats, don't be fooled. RUN.



Umeko Baba
"The Sunflower"
Owner and manager of the Himawari Onsen. She is known for her stern but loving demeanor, and kindness towards the women who come to work at her bathhouse. She has long resisted the influence of local Gumi families, but time and age have begun to wear her down, leading to retirement for this lovely sunflower.

Hana Baba
"The Blossom"
Though events with a ferocious hanya scarred her face and shortened her career as a courtesan, Hana Baba refused to bend to the whims of fate and found new purpose as Umeko Baba's assistant. Hana has since taken over the ownership of the Himawari Onsen so Umeko can at last enjoy a well deserved retirement.
Kasim Lusus
"The Bodyguard"
Former member of DWC and now-husband to former DWC co-owner Nami, Kasim is a massive and intimidating Xaela with considerable loyalty towards the Himawari Onsen. It is largely thanks to his tremendous bulk, and indomitable strength, that the bathhouse has remained free from gumi control.

The Cooler Sekiseigumi
"The Awesome"
Though at a glance he is just another Hingan Samurai, the presence of sunglasses mark him with considerable prestige as a much more amazing Sekiseigumi than the rest. Determined to keep the peace but do it fairly, TCS is known for beating his subordinates into oblivion if he catches them abusing their positions of power.



Daegeun Kang
"The Onryo"
Though in conflict with DWC, he is not counted as an enemy, seeking only to save himself from death. He was originally from the aborted timeline in which the Black Rose Calamity destroyed the star. He was a researcher on the Tycoon project who went insane at the discovery that the timeline changes would only affect a world he would never see, and he did every thing he could to get there.

S'molli Tia
"The Smol"
