alba.
The leader of the Central sector, and a very powerful psychic. All Shepherds will meet her in their first dream, where she interviews them to determine which sector they will be sorted into. She conducts herself professionally and speaks with a soft, practiced voice – one that tells you she has a carefully created and maintained image. With her psychic abilities, she's able to enter dreams, project her thoughts, raise forcefields, track both people and Nightmares, and read the thoughts of Dreamers, though she appears unable to read the thoughts of Shepherds.
katerina irbussós.
The heiress to the Irbussós family, and the person who, perhaps over-excitedly, volunteered herself to be the intermediary in charge of overseeing the Shepherds who come to Kardiochtýpi. An energetic young woman who was rather well known growing up for constantly finding herself in trouble, her family hopes this responsibility will teach her a sense of duty, but she just hopes the Shepherds can keep up. She lives alone with few servants in her family's manor in the city, so she really, really wants Shepherds to drop by to chat.
halimede manakraíno.
The heiress to the Manakraíno family. Blue-blooded, through and through, Halimede's never been seen acting any way but cool and composed, even since childhood. She takes an interest in avenues less explored, or in innovating new ways to use her magical talents; she primarily uses a rapier, a weapon not commonly used in Kardiochtýpi, and has commissioned a specialized glove with conduit "claws" for situations where her rapier may be suboptimal. She takes no interest in purchasing anything but the most perfectly refined water conduits, and refuses to purchase expensive alloys, seeing as she's only able to use water psychí. A childhood friend of Katerina's, she often finds herself offloaded with the intermediary's paperwork and more monotonous tasks – though she never seems to mind.
titania.
Rules over the áes enech of Ever Hollow. While her somewhat cold nature may seem off-putting at first, she's considered benevolent, and ensures her subjects do not behave cruelly or unjustly towards the non-supernatural Dreamers and Shepherds. While she normally seems serious, it's said that some of the Dreamers have seen her behave much more lax than normal under certain circumstances… though, it's not known what those circumstances are. Due to a disagreement, she is no longer with her ex-husband, Oberon.
sophia.
A ghost who may look off-putting, but she's really very friendly. She runs an electronics store called Circuit that isn't very popular among Dreamers, where she also sells trinkets and memorabilia from other sectors. She's very interested in the cultures the Shepherds come from, and in the other sectors, seeing as she can't visit them. Mostly, though, she's very interested in their technology, as there's an almost complete lack of it in Ever Hollow. She's a rare case among ghosts, where she's more interested in listening to others rather than having her woes heard – you never know what you'll get in exchange for telling her about your home, so why not stop by her shop?
