Choeru mayor of Ravel, Berry was killed and/or blowted during the Sorghum Siege, and likely still exists as a blowted capybara monster in the streets of the north districts.

Captain Cronch

A tortle hermit who lives roughly 2 hours outside of Ravel. Was saved from the cold and escorted back to Ravel. Current wielder of Rumblewood. Cronch was saved by the heroes when his burial mound was drawing energies of Orbis Alius, leading to the summoning of a massive Turtle Blowt (likely drawing on the body of his late wife buried deep under the area).

Farmer Lyell Lingon

A farmer who grows (grew) Sour Lingonberries, a notoriously delicious and over-wintering fruit which continued to slowly grow despite the freeze. His house first came under attack by Cultists of Amaun, leaving him to flee into the cities borders, only to almost be snowed in after a particularly deadly squall which also killed his wife and 3 piglets.

He gave one of his piglets, named Turkey Bacon Pork Sausage, to Cavii Kero to keep.

He has formed a strange rivalry with the Dragonborns Sven and Ben, despite only having ever been helped by them. It's said to be because Sven was digging out the house Lyell was staying in when he collapsed into The Unravel.

He earned the title of Sorghum Prince at the first annual Sorghum Fair, which was subject to a major Blowt attack.

He is now a player character after the death of Thimbol

Zugon Montane

A fisherman in Ravel who briefly stayed in Cavii Kero's cafe shop as temporary lodgings from the storm.

Bartlett

Hermis Rangina

A Minotaur who was staying at C3 (Cavii's Bastion). Not much else known so far.

Thaddeus

A rival scholar of Quimbleton's, who taught as Drȳcræft Drīfan University of Magicks. Was killed in battle trying to protect the Manquel Lush Pocket.

From that fatal battle, three of his allies, a Goliath, an Aarakocra named Tim, and a Kitsune, all survived and were captured by Ravel authorities.

Althia Arcanthia

An elf and fellow teacher, though her school of residence is still unknown. Was staying in Cavii Kero's cafe shop as temporary lodgings from the storm. She came from Balabag during a tense time when the city was looking to spy on Ravel. Her treacherous ways were discovered, and she was turned over to the city, who then turned her over to The Unravel to process her interrogation. However, the heroes argued for leniency in her case as she was only a scholar looking for money to aid in her investigations of the Blowted. This leniency, however, fell on deaf ears.

She avoided being interrogated when a group of Wendigo interrupted the interrogator, Silent Wind, and after some other heroes of the city saved her from the Wendigo, they brought her back to the city, suggesting she be kept indefinitely imprisoned for her own safety until the Wendigo invasion was over.

Ennui

A tiefling spy from Balabag who was staying in Cavii Kero's cafe shop as temporary lodgings from the storm. He was discovered after he tried to backstab some heroes out on the ice, and they turned him over to the city (and thus he was taken to The Unravel for interrogations). While in the Unravel, he was interrogated violently and terrifyingly by the Aarakocra known as Silent Wind, who then locked him in a small cage, a cage that in turn protected him from an outbreak of Wendigo in the quarters. Afterwards, Silent Wind bargained to keep him imprisoned, saying that he still had more to answer for and deserved to be kept in the Unravel until the guild was done with him.

Ennui was eventually turned over to Balabag, likely after the Sorghum Siege, after which Ennui was tasked with assassinating the leader of the Manquel bastion, Five. Instead of killing Ennui after this second attempted assasination, he was turned back over to the Balabag armies to take back to the city.

Fergus Remerson

A bit of a grump who runs the general store in Manquel, almost killed the whole town by ordering mystical Whale-Bone flutes which seemed to summon the Blowted

An druid harengon who has lived in Manquel seemingly for as long as Manquel has been around. She is an herbalist and has ties to Fridtjof, as well to a drow Necromancer named Pelan who lives in Ravel.

A friend of Laris'. An artist living in Ravel whose status is unknown. He was declared originally delcared dead by the city. In reality, he had contracted the Wendigo disease and after being slain by the heroes, his ashes were buried behind Cavii Kero's Bastion, the C3.

Maynard

Maynard is Neighbor's boyfriend, a pig folk that she was seeing when the Freeze hit. A bit of a lowlife and lazy bum, he and Neighbor moved into his mother's basement to have somewhere warm to stay during the freeze. He was a driving force as to why Neighbor decided to get out into the Freeze and adventure in the first place...because the alternative was to sit in a basement and hear Maynard complain more about how unoptimized the stratagem of the public response has been and how he could do SO much better if he had any say in things. Like...okay Maynard we get it, please go back to reading your cheap scroll filth and eating your stink juice bugs.

Near the end of Act 1, Asimi sold Maynard's soul to a floating devil ship in exchange for some Doomed Sage's Insight, which makes her better at magic or something. Not cool. She swears she'll get Maynard's soul back somehow, but until then, he'd better get into heroic shape...
