Leoric
Spectral Knight leader
A noble-faced man in his thirties with brown hair, a trimmed beard or strong clean jaw (the toy: bearded leader), and a lion-helm option. Blue-and-gold armor, a chest hologram of a lion. He is the most kingly of the Knights: broad, upright, warm brown eyes. Fair-tanned skin. He looks like a mayor of the new age who can still hold a staff of power.
Honorable, sometimes too trusting, the moral center. Leads Witterquick, Cryotek, Galadria; Darkstorm is his dark reflection.
Darkstorm
Darkling Lord leader
A hawkish, goateed man with cruelly handsome features, dark hair, pale skin, and armor in black, purple, and iron. His totem is a molluscan horror on the chest. He is leaner than Leoric, more theatrical, a villain’s posture. Eyes are cold. He looks like he enjoyed the Age of Science’s hierarchies and intends to rebuild them with spells.
Tyrannical, witty, allergic to equals. Opposes Leoric; commands the Darkling Lords against Witterquick and Cryotek; would use Galadria as a lesson.
Witterquick
Spectral Knight · speed
A lean, youthful knight with a sharp face, lighter brown hair, and armor built for motion—cheetah totem. He is slighter than Cryotek, almost a runner even standing still. Eager eyes. Fair skin. The hologram animal is a sprint. He looks like the youngest of the principal Knights without being a child.
Impatient, brave, comic in his haste, loyal. Leoric’s fast blade; spars with Cryotek; Darkstorm is a wall he wants to outrun; Galadria is a comrade.
Galadria
Spectral Knight
The primary woman of the Knights: athletic, with blonde or light brown hair, a determined pretty face, and armor that matches the Spectral set rather than a bikini-plate. Totem associated with a dolphin in some materials; we use knightly armor with a water-creature hologram on the chest. Fair skin, steady eyes. She looks like a soldier, not a princess accessory.
Courageous, team-minded, refuses Darkstorm’s world. Equal among Leoric’s knights; Witterquick’s peer; Cryotek’s friend; Darkstorm’s contempt slides off her.
Cryotek
Spectral Knight · strength
A massive, red-bearded or red-haired knight, bear totem, the physically largest of the fellowship. Broad face, kind eyes in a warrior’s skull, pale-northern skin, armor heavier than Witterquick’s. He looks like a kind giant. The hologram bear is his second body. Hands are huge.
Gentle until he is not, simple in speech, complex in loyalty. Leoric’s strength; brotherly with Witterquick; respects Galadria; Darkstorm would love to break him for the sound it would make.
