Lady Morgan Suncrest
Date of Birth: 16 Whitemoon, 2E 188
Date of Transfiguration: 27 Whitemoon, 2E 220
Gender: Female
Home: A cottage at the edge of Wolfwicce Wood
Race: Faetouched (Reborn)

A witch following the Black-Quill tradition. Styling themselves as "crow witches", they happily take whatever rituals and techniques they find that work for them, abandoning the rest. Her first teacher was her own mother, a solo practicioner of the craft, until she found her own way. The Black-Quills happily accepted her, seeing in her the kind of adaptability they strive for.

She's had a few prior relationships that ended messily, which she's loathe to speak on. She'd had no intention of taking on an apprentice until saving Melina Stillwater from an over-eager hunter; the girl needed somewhere safe, and had an intellectual curiosity that Morgan thought perfect for the craft.

Since taking in Lucinda Palemoon, Morgan found herself quickly developing feelings for the vampire. She thinks she's hiding them, but has no one fooled.

Date of Birth: 7 Seedmoon, 2E 203
Gender: Female
Home: Lady Suncrest's cottage
Race: Human

An apprentice witch, she met Suncrest while being pursued by an overzealous hunter; her albinism and sunburns were taken as "proof" of her vampiric nature. Quiet and observant by nature, she pairs her attention to detail with an endless curiosity that has made her instruction go far more smoothly than Suncrest expected.

Lucinda Palemoon
Date of Birth: 22 Gustmoon, 2E 179
Date Turned: 14 Hearthmoon, 2E 201
Gender: Female
Home: Lady Suncrest's Cottage
Race: Vampire

Once, the youngest of the Palemoon children, heirs to the rulership of their eponymous city-state. She wanted for nothing, loved her family, and happily helped anyone who needed it. As a young woman, she often found herself working alongside the citizens of Palemoon, wanting to build a bond with them so she could help her older brothers, who she assumed would inherit their parents' power. One day, she met a woman in town and fell for her rapidly. A passionate but lengthy courtship ensued, and her parents were so happy for her that they helped Lucinda pick out and buy a ring.

But it was a lie. The woman never loved Lucinda. She was a vampire, who claimed to have been wronged at some point in the distant past by the Palemoons, and turning Lucinda was to be her revenge; she wanted the family destroyed, and what better way than turning their beloved daughter into a monster?

She has shared little of the immediate aftermath of that, but remains apart from her family. She came to Lady Suncrest in pursuit of a remedy for a long-broken heart, and in a manner of speaking, she did find that.

Gender: Female
Home: The Emerald Spires
Race: Faetouched (Many-Marked)

Born at midnight on the darkest, longest night of the year, Acantha seemed to have an uncanny knack for handling animals that many took to be a sign of fae interest. Such a thing can be worrying, and she dealt with a lot of superstition about that as a child. In her teens, she was cast out of the family home Later, she earned the attention of the fae after pursuing an injured warg into the Emerald Spires in an effort to heal the beast. An effort she succeeded at.
 
She had not, in fact, been marked at birth, but her work earned her the first mark of what would become many. In time, the fae appointed her as the Warden of the Emerald Spires, tasked and trusted to protect that place, which the fae hold sacred.
