Love that Emperor Cat
Next up is me napping for a few hours right?
Okay, so let's keep going then:
Phyrexians and other not so good folks
Volrath: Former Human male from Jamuraa, father takes Gerrard as adopted son. Relationship turns sour when Vuel (human name) is saved from falling by Gerrard during his rite of passage to become cheiftain, and so is disgraced. Not the forgiving type, he meets up with Starke who sets him up as Evincar of Rath.
Yawgmoth: Former Human male from Koilos, the big bad one ruling Phyrexia. NOT a true planeswalker, only has the abilities of one when on Phyrexia.
Starke: Human male from Rath, member of
il-Vec tribe. Phyrexian agent, not Phyrexianized. Was promised daughter's freedom in exchange for bringing Gerrard to Rath.
Commander Greven il-Vec: in charge of Evincar's forces and captain of the
Predator
The New Crovax: bears mentioning, is elected new Evincar of Rath. Grows stronger by killing (think vampires), the more the merrier for him.
Other Inhabitants of Rath
Eladamri, Lord of Leaves: Elven male from Skyshroud, ruler of the Skyshroud elves, leads guerilla campaign against the Evincars.
Oracle en-Vec: human female from the plains of Rath, leader of the Vec and ally to Eladamri.
Lynna: Soltari female from Soltariville (heck, even I don't know where they come from), emissary of the Soltari to the corporeal world, slows the work of the Stronghold.
Takara: trapped in the Evincar's dungeon for quite some time, freed by Eladamri on his raid on the 'Hold. Escaped with him through portal to Dominaria.
Mercadians
The Magistrate: Human male from Mercadia, but pile of fat is more like it. Ruler of mercadia in name only, puppet of the Kyren.
Cho-Manno: Human male from Rushwood, leader of the Cho-Arrim and all around wuss. Let's everyone do the fighting for him.
Ramos: Dragon Engine, crashed into Mercadia millenia ago and just kinda sits around these days.
The Cateran Overlord: ruler of the Cateran Mercenaries, currently hired by the Mercadians to keep the Cho-Arrim, Ramosians, and Saprazzans occupied while they construct a fleet of airships for the Phyrexians under contract.
[phew] That wraps up our basic cast o' characters. The story will come tomorrow at some time ma'am.
