GRAN
BIO:
Gran is the honest to a fault hero who’s traveling
to the Estalucia, the Island of the Astrals at the behest
of his father. He’s accompanied by Vyrn, his flying
lizard-like buddy, and Lyria the mysterious blue-haired
girl who saved Gran’s life by linking it with her
own.

KATALINA

Katalina is a former Imperial Knight who abandoned her
post to protect Lyria. When hearing of the
experiments the Empire had planned for Lyria, she

adventures with Gran. She has trouble with directions and
cooking.

LANCELOT
BIO: Lancelot is the captain of the Order of White Dragons
of Feendrache Kingdom. He’s a master swordsman who will
willingly risks life should any threat arise to his
beloved kingdom. (Also, he has trouble keeping his room
clean.)

CHAROLOTTA
BIO:
The diminutive Charolotta is the captain of the Holy
Order of Lumiel Knights. While she possesses both the love
of her subordinates and superb martial skills, she predictably
has a childish side, shown by her love of the famed
“Little Skyfarer’s Lunch” kids meal.

FERRY
BIO:
Ferry is an Erune girl who once lived in the
Mist-Shrouded Isle. She died while waiting for her
sister’s return and returned as a spirit. Now, at Gran

sister. In addition to the whip she wields, she can also
summon her ghostly pets to bite at her opponent.
