Catamounts

## Species Overview

Catamounts are a sentient species of humanoid “creatures of the night” that have the inborn ability of shape-shifting from a human form to that of a mountain lion.

## Anatomy

### Human Form

In their human form, catamounts are nearly indistinguishable from their human counterparts. They can be any biological sex or ethnicity, are bipedal, and have the regular number of limbs that a human would be expected to have.

Although some catamounts are more animalistic looking than the others of their kind: born with deformed collarbones, and four toes on each foot instead of five — which allows for greater range of movement.

### Mountain Lion Form

In cat form, catamounts are indistinguishable from actual mountain lions. They are quadrupeds, with four legs and a tail.

## The Black Panther

The de facto leader of the unassembled catamount people, this individual shape-shifts into a black panther rather then the regular catamount mountain lion. Only one black panther ever exists at a time, the gene passing from parent to child.

A warrior and leader, the black panther is the general who leads the fight against the supernatural that intends harm to the innocent, and humanity that encroaches too far into the wilderness.

Other names for this rare variant of the species are the "Black One" and the "Warrior-Leader of the Forest".

## Life Cycle and Social Practices

Born deaf and blind, catamount “cubs” gain sight and sound about six weeks after birth. There is usually one to five children per pregnancy.

Learning to change forms before they can walk, catamount children are raised on their parents’ territories alongside their litter-mates, and any other family members they may have.

Once a juvenile catamount is an adult, they leave their childhood home and choose their own territory — an area of land for them to hunt and live on. After that, their social practices are similar to that of humans, although, each family governing themselves, catamounts have a wide range of beliefs and traditions.

## Trinity

Catamouts are three-part beings: they have a soul; a human body; and a panther body.

It is impossible to separate a catamount’s trinity, except without the magic of the Black Cloak.

The Black Cloak envelopes the catamount within its folds, absorbing the human part of its otherworldly victim and subsequently trapping the catamount in their panther form; this is knowing as “splintering” or being “torn asunder”.

ALPHA TROOPER CS-18

**「ALPHA TROOPER(アルファトルーパー)」**は、2010年（日本では2010年）に販売を開始した「N-STRIKE」シリーズのポンプアクションブラスター。

付属品として１８発ドラムマガジンが同梱。

詳細
--

（発売経緯、前身・類似モデルとの比較など）

### ◆本体◆

本体前部を囲っているフロントグリップがコッキングスライドとなっており、ショットガンのようなポンプアクションによるコッキングが出来る点が特徴。トリガーを引いたままスライドを連続で前後させることで連射が出来るスラムファイア機能を搭載。

タクティカルレールは本体上背部に一つとストックの接続が可能となっている。

本商品の特徴であるフロントグリップだが、現在販売されているNERF商品の中でコッキングスライドが本体上下両方にまたがっている商品は本製品以外には存在しない。コッキングスライドとしての使い勝手だが、好きな持ち方で扱って良いほかスラムファイアの高速前後運動にも対応できる柔らかい仕組みになっているため年齢問わず扱いやすい。

扱いやすさと引き換えに、例えばレイダーやランページは下部にコッキング用のハンドルを作った分上部にタクティカルレールが、リーコンやリタリエイターであればスライドが上部についているがその分本体そのもののスリム化が行われている。なので弱点はコッキングスライドの設計上やや本体が大きい割にカスタマイズ性が少々乏しい点である。

持ち手の下にはダーツを１本保管できるストレージが付属。バレルのカスタムが出来そうな見た目だがバレル接続は不可

### ◆付属品◆

１８発のドラムマガジンが付属されている。このマガジンは海外では単品販売されていた（米Amazon等）。

レイダー付属の35連ドラムのようなカタツムリに似た形状をしており、ダーツをある程度装填したらマガジンについてあるハンドルを回し手動でバネを圧縮。ダーツが奥に移動するのでまたダーツを装填して・・・という流れで装填を行う。

ドラムマガジンの利点は縦の長さが少ないためバイポッド系のカスタムが行いやすくなったり携行性が増すこと、欠点はドラムマガジン全般に言えるマガジン内部での弾詰まりだが、装弾数が比較的少ないからかジャムはあまり起こらない。

## ELITE版

ELITE版は2013年に12発装弾のクリップと12発のELITE ダーツが付属したセットで発売した。

オーストラリアではtarget限定発売など、各国で限定発売扱いになっているため日本では入手が難しいかもしれない。

## Mission Kit

2015年にはフォールディンググリップ(ELITE SPECTRE REV-5付属のものと同型？)、2つの6発装弾clip12発のEliteダーツが付属したミッションキットが発売している。

現在Alpha Trooperが欲しければこちらを買う必要がある。

定価45ドル程度だが、プレミアム価格がついており、2016年8月当時、時現在amazonで79-99ドル前後となっている。

## 使い方

1. クリップにダーツを装填する。ドラムクリップの場合普通に詰めるだけではダーツが奥まで入らないため、クリップ背部にあるハンドルを回してバネを圧縮
2. コッキングスライドを「引いた」状態でクリップを挿入。終わったらスライドを押して戻す。コッキング完了
3. トリガーを引くことでダーツが発射される。後は繰り返し
4. クリップを抜く場合、装填時と同様にスライドを「引いた」状態でクリップリリースボタンを押しながら抜く

※トリガーを引いたままスライドを前後させることで動作の少ない、連続した射撃を行える（スラムファイア）

評価
--

コッキングスライドの構造やコッキング自体の軽さ、ジャムの起きづらさや素直な弾道から扱いやすいブラスターとして現在も愛用されている。詳細で述べた通りカスタマイズ性と本体そのものの大きさは犠牲になっているが、それ以上にCS系統で問題視されていた扱いづらさが解消されており、CSならではの装弾数の高さとリボルバー系統に劣らない安定した射撃性能、そしてブラスターとしての安定感の高さはどのような遊び方にも使うことのできる安心感をもたらしてくれる。

## 備考・小ネタ

ELITEの青いアルファトルーパーと、XD改修されたオレンジのアルファトルーパーが存在する。編集者は持っていないため記事を書きにくいため希望者はどうかお願いします。

XDまで改修がされている商品の中で唯一N-STRIKEから商品の形状が変化していない。それだけこの商品の完成度は高いと言える。

IMPERIAL DEATH TROOPER DELUXE BLASTER

正式名称は**「IMPERIAL DEATH TROOPER DELUXE BLASTER」**。
日本名は**「スター・ウォーズ　ナーフ　デス・トルーパーブラスター」**。
2016年公開の映画『ローグ・ワン スター・ウォーズストーリー』とのコラボレーションモデルである。

付属品として蓄光性があるグローダーツ3本と、テスト用単4電池3本が同梱。電池は本体に装填済。

詳細
--

### ◆本体◆

ポンプアクションを採用した先込め式の単発ブラスターである。スラムファイア機能はない。タクティカルレールはトリガー上部に1つを装備。オプションストックの装着も可能になっている。原型機のデザイン再現のため、特製のビジュアルパーツを本体左側面に組み立てる必要がある。このパーツには特にギミックはないので、外しても問題はない。

下部にあるスライドを引く事でコッキングを行う。スライドを引き切るとブラスターの銃身内部が白く発光。この状態でトリガーを引くと*バヒューン*というサウンドが鳴り、銃身上部の赤ライトが点灯し、ダーツが発射、銃身内部が消灯する。ちなみにコッキングしていない時でも、トリガーを引くとサウンドと赤ライトのギミックが作動する。更に言うと、トリガーは半分ほど引いたところでギミックが作動する。

コッキングで内部が発光することにより付属された蓄光ダーツが光を溜め、*光ったダーツ*が飛ぶ。一般のダーツだと効果がないことと、明るい状況だと効果がないため、内蔵されている電池を外しても発射に支障は出ない。

### ◆付属品◆

先端が半透明の緑色、白い塗装にSTARWARSのロゴが入った蓄光ダーツが付属されている。
このダーツは別売りで市販もされており、性能はエリートダーツと同様。

## 使い方

* ①銃口先端からダーツを詰める（最大3本まで）
* ②コッキングスライドを前後させて、トリガーを引くと発射

評価
--

* オレンジトリガーだが、元々コラボレーションモデル全般の威力は下げられているため、性能で言えば国内の製品よりも少し威力の高い先込め式という評価。
* 仕組みとしてはROUGH CUTと同じくポンプアクションなことに加えストックも付属。全体の形状が丸いブラスターは珍しいため、カスタマイズを楽しむことが可能となる。
* 電池はあくまでも電飾＆サウンドギミックのみに使用するため、装填しなくてもダーツは問題なく飛ばせる。逆に言えば、電池さえあればダーツが無くても光線銃のおもちゃとしてごっこ遊びが出来る。
* 版権ものの商品のため、性能や大きさの割に値段は高め。もしもこの商品を「性能」で購入をしたい場合はよく考えるべきである。

## 備考・小ネタ

* 元ネタは帝国軍将校オーソン・クレニックの直属部隊、デス・トルーパーが使用するブラスター・ライフル。通常のストームトルーパーが使用するブラスターよりも大口径化した強化品である。
	+ 劇中ではストックと照準器が搭載されているが、残念ながらナーフでは省略されてしまった。FIRST ORDER STORMTROOPER DELUXE BLASTERのオプションパーツを流用するとかなり近いモノになるので、塗装に自信がある人はまとめて塗り替えてしまうといいだろう。
* 店頭で探す場合、ナーフ売り場ではなく、スター・ウォーズ関連商品の売り場を見よう。

Essie

Unnamed Grandmother (Deceased)

Unnamed Grandfather (Deceased)

## Appearance

Essie Walker is a girl several years older then Serafina. She has a pleasant, gentle face and dark curly hair. Essie is often seen wearing her maid uniform, as she is a Lady’s Maid.

## Relationships

Serafina: Essie and Serafina first met when the maid brought mail down to Serafina in the basement. She kindly let Serafina borrow one of her Sunday dresses to go upstairs to be investigated by Detective Grathan.

Since then, they have become close friends. Essie has assisted in getting Serafina out of tight situations and helping her out around Biltmore, from things to informational stories about ghosts and black panthers to helping her get ready for a fancy dinner like in the *Seven Stars*.

Essie seems to also like giving encouragement to her friend and helped her out in Braeden's absence. *It also seems that Essie likes to play a little match-making, don't you think? ;)*

Braeden: Like Serafina, Essie has helped to get the pair of *friends* out of sticky situations.

Essie and Braeden aren't seen interacting much, but Essie thinks well about the young master (especially, it seems, with Serafina). She's only used his name to his face once, calling him otherwise "Master Braeden".

Essie said, in the *Seven Stars*, when Braeden left for boarding school, that she thought he was a fine enough "Southern gent" already.

When they have talked, like in the *Seven Stars*, it seems there was some playful, friendly banter between them, when she also first used his name to his face.

They could be considered friends.

Waysa

Unnamed Brothers (Deceased)

Unnamed Sister (Deceased)

Unnamed Grandmother (Deceased)

Cat

> “Stay bold!” Waysa to Serafina, Twisted Staff.
>
>

Waysa is a young orphaned catamount of Cherokee descent, a friend of Serafina and Braeden Vanderbilt, and a friend of Lady Rowena Fox-Pemberton.

## Appearance

#### Human Form:

Waysa is thin and lithe. His skin is light brown with Cherokee tribal tattoos on his shoulders and face. Waysa’s eyes are chestnut-brown with traces of gold. His hair is long, wild, and dark brown — a darker brown then Braeden Vanderbilt’s. Waysa is also taller and more muscular than Braeden Vanderbilt, and has a sharper face.

#### Panther Form:

When Waysa is a mountain lion, he has dark fur and golden-brown eyes. Like most panthers, he is described as lean but strong.

## Background Information

As a child, he lived with his family — his mother, his father, his two brothers, and his sister — who were all catamounts of Cherokee descent.

Unfortunately, Uriah's forces slaughtered his entire family as they were returning from a hunting trip, and he ended up entirely alone.

This event gave Waysa strong senses of justice, compassion, and forgiveness, along with the regret that he hadn't been able to save his family in time, especially his sister.

## Relationships

#### Rowena:

Waysa helped Rowena when she was wounded; first from the Battle on the Loggia and then from her father’s abuse. Later relating this information to Braeden, Waysa said that *“'On the night of the quarter moon, I came back and she was gone. She just disappeared.'"*

The next time that Rowena and Waysa see each other is in the third book when Rowena is helping Serafina come back to life. Waysa took little convincing, saying that he trusted Rowena. Serafina thinks that Rowena is pleased by this, although when she brings in up Rowena denies it.

Having successfully brought Serafina back into the living world, the next time Waysa and Rowena are around each other is when they go to fight Uriah during the storm.

When Rowena is knocked unconscious by her father, Waysa single-handedly carried her to Baltimore, so that she could receive help.

By the end of the book, Rowena and Waysa both go their separate ways with a good relationship.

RAYVEN CS-18

**「RAYVEN CS-18」**は2012年に発売された電動ブルパップタイプのブラスター。ギリギリになって国内展開がされなかった悲運のブラスターである。

N-STRIKEシリーズとしては、STAMPEDE ECS、BARRICADE RV-10に続く3つめの電動ブラスターであり、現在主流となっているクリップ式フライホイールブラスターの大元である。また、先んじてN-STRIKEシリーズでリリースされたリボルバー型・FIREFLY REV-8にて実装された蓄光システムを形を変えて受け継いだ希少なモデルでもある。

付属品として18連電飾クリップ、グローダーツ18本が同梱。

後にELITE改修版とその色違い・STINGERがリリースされている。

詳細
--

### ◆本体◆

アタッチメントレールは本体キャリングハンドル上部と、銃身右側面の2つ。延長バレルにも対応する。

カラーリングは蓄光ダーツの発光を意識してか全体的に黄緑色である。なおボルテックスシリーズよりは薄い色である。

メイントリガーの下部にフライホイールを回すアクセレラーショントリガーが配されている。電池ボックスは本体後部、右側面に配置。単3電池4本が必要。クリップリリースボタンは銃床部下部に設置。ジャム発生時に使うクリーニングドアは後部上方に設置。

初のブルパップ型ブラスターである。実在のブルパップ銃と同じく、銃を支える腕はハンドガードを支える形になる。どうしても窮屈に感じる人は、タクティカルレール付の延長バレルと追加グリップを組み合わせるとよい。

### ◆付属品◆

* **18連発光クリップ**
このブラスターの顔とも言えるクリップシステム。成型色はグレーで側面部分にオレンジ色のラインが塗装されている。右側面に突きだしている電池ボックスには「**蛍（ファイアフライ）**」のエンブレムのプリントがなされている。
このクリップには**単3電池3本で発光する強力なLEDライトが仕込まれている**。スイッチを入れるとクリップのリップ部分が点灯し、蓄光ダーツを感光させ、鮮やかな光で打ち出す。
* **グローダーツ（蓄光ダーツ）**
先駆者たるFIREFLYの蓄光ダーツを改良したもの。非クリップ式であるFIREFLYはマイクロダーツを採用しており、ダーツに別途蓄光テープを貼り付ける必要があった。しかし、このRAYVENはクリップ式のためマイクロダーツは使えず、ストリームダーツに限定されている。それに伴い、使用ダーツ自体が蓄光素材で作られたストリームダーツになったのである。ファイアフライのものより長く、明るく光る（多分）。

## 使い方

* ①本体の電池ボックスをドライバーで開放し、電池を装填
* ②クリップにダーツを詰める。必要ならクリップにも電池を入れる（要ドライバー）。そして本体にクリップを装填
* ③アクセラレーショントリガーを引き、フライホイールを始動
* ④アクセラレーショントリガーを引いている間、メイントリガーを引くごとにダーツが発射される
* ⑤撃ち終わったらクリップリリースボタンを押しながらクリップを引き抜く

評価
--

* コンパクトかつ軽量、それでいて大人でも十分ストックに肩をつけて狙いが定められる絶妙な大きさ。フライホイール方式故に過度の連射に向かないことを除けば、とても扱いやすいブラスター。
* **電飾クリップの扱いには注意が必要**。落っことせば電飾ギミックが破損する恐れがある。更にクリップ内部はLEDと回路がむき出しなので、万一水が入れば、最悪の場合漏電してダーツに引火する恐れがある。雲行きが怪しい時に野外に持ち出すのは控えた方がいいだろう。
* クリップは蓄光ダーツ18本と共に単品売りされている。
* 後継のエリートシリーズでも同じだが、ジャムドアの穴から漏れる光がカッコイイ。

## 小ネタ・備考

* このブラスターのギミックが本領発揮されるのは主に夜間だが、いくら光るダーツといえども、発光時間はそう長くない。夜間はダーツを紛失しやすいので注意すること。
* 通常ダーツの中に、数発おきに発光ダーツを混ぜて入れると曳光弾の気分が味わえる。撃ち合い遊び中の残弾管理にも役立つ。
* 「RAYVEN」のスペルは「RAY（光）」と「RAVEN（ワタリガラス）」を合わせた造語と思われる。読みはレイヴン、レイヴェンとでもなるだろうか。
Serafina and the Black Cloak

*“The story drips with suspense, wrapping readers into the narrative just as easily as the Man in the Black Cloak binds his young victims.” ーSchool Library Journal*

**Serafina and the Black Cloak** is the first book in the *Serafina Series*. It was written by Robert Beatty and published by Disney-Hyperion. The first hardcover edition was released in July 2015 and the first paperback edition was released in June 2016

## Dedication

“To my wife Jennifer, who helped shape this book from the beginning, and to our girls—Camille, Genevieve, and Elizabeth— who will always be our first and most important audience.”
—Robert Beatty

This book is dedicated to Robert’s wife and 3 daughters.

## Book Blurb

*“Never go into the deep parts of the forest, for there are many dangers there, and they will ensnare your soul.”*

Serafina has never had a reason to disobey her pa and venture beyond the grounds of the Biltmore estate. There’s plenty to explore in her grand home, although she must take care to never be seen. None of the rich folk upstairs know that Serafina exists; she and her pa, the estate’s maintenance man, have secretly lived in the basement for as long as Serafina can remember.

But when children at the estate start disappearing, only Serafina knows who the culprit is: a terrifying man in a black cloak who stalks Biltmore’s corridors at night. Following her own harrowing escape, Serafina risks everything by joining forces with Braeden Vanderbilt, the young nephew of the Biltmore’s owners. Braeden and Serafina must uncover the Man in the Black Cloak’s true identity... before all of the children vanish one by one.

## Plot

### Chapter 1:

*“You’re the Chief Rat Catcher.”—Pa to Serafina*

The book opens and we meet Serafina, a scrawny, cat-like girl who lives in the basement of Biltmore Estate. She hunts rats in the basement and calls herself the C.R.C. or ‘Chief rat catcher,’ a title given to her by her pa when she asked him what her job was at Biltmore. While she is hunting, she hears footsteps down in the basement. She discovers a man clad in a black cloak, dragging a young girl, Clara Brahms, down the basement corridor. Horrified, Serafina tries to save Clara, following after the man. She fails, and instead witnesses Clara disappear into the folds of the black cloak. The man in the Black Cloak sees Serafina and turns to her, saying in a raspy voice, “I’m not going to hurt you child.”

The chapter ends.

### Chapter 2:

*“I’m not going to hurt you…child,” The Man in the Black Cloak to Serafina*

Serafina runs. She tries to escape from the man but he catches her by pulling her hair. The cloak almost swallows her, but she manages to fight him off. She continues running, and ducks into the linen storage room. She squeezes into a narrow slot between the special drying racks her Pa constructed. The man in the black cloak hunts for her, but she remains hidden.

The chapter ends.

The Angel's Glade

**The Angel's Glade is the given name for the abandoned cemetery in the Dardin Forest, because the actual name remains unknown. The name "The Angle's Glade" comes from the Angel Statue within the actual glade of the cemetery.**

## The Graveyard

Hundreds of years old, the graveyard is abandoned, constantly misty and dark, and has slowly been re-consumed by nature, enveloped in trees, vines, and undergrowth.

### The Outer Cemetery

Shrouded in mist, the outer part of the cemetery holds the youngest graves. Most headstones here are so close together that they couldn’t possibly have bodies of beneath them, as if some of them were for bodies gone missing, and others were simply markers for the lost.

### Unnamed Gravestone (Outer Cemetery)

Halfway buried in the forest floor, this smooth, flat granite headstone is engraved with blocky letters:

> HERE LIES BLOOD, AND LET IT LIE,
> SPEECHLESS STILL, AND NEVER CRY
>
>

### The Grave of Cloven Smith

The flat, gray gravestone reads:

> COME HITHER, COME HITHER, AND LAY WITH ME.
>
>
> WE'LL MURDER THE MAN WHO MURDERED ME.
>
>
>
> CLOVEN SMITH 1797–1843
>
>

### The Inner Cemetery

Shrouded in mist, the inner part of the cemetery holds the oldest graves. Most headstones here have mounds were bodies have definitely been buried, although some of the graves are empty holes, as if the coffins had been stolen, or perhaps the dead crawled out on their own.

### The Grave of Mary and Margaret Hemlock

These sisters are buried so close together that they share a single headstone:

> OUR BED IS LOVELY, DARK, AND SWEET.
>
>
> COME JOIN US NOW AND WE SHALL MEET.
>
>
> MARY HEMLOCK AND MARGRET HEMLOCK
>
>
>
> 1782–1791 REST IN PEACE AND DON'T RETURN
>
>

## The Angel Statue

In the center of the graveyard, this statue of a woman stood on a pedestal. Carved from stone, she was mottled with green and gray mosses and lichens, black streaks of age staining her long hair and her beautiful, tear-stained face. Her feathered-wings were arced upwards while her eternally sharp sword was pointed at the entrance of the glade. The pedestal is engraved with the phrase:

> OUR CHARACTER ISN’T DEFINED
>
>
> BY THE BATTLES WE WIN OR LOSE,
>
>
>
> BUT BY THE BATTLES WE DARE TO FIGHT.
>
>

## The Angel’s Glade

The unnamed enchantment over the glade caused it to be in a perpetual state of growth, the plants never withering or wilting, and to be untouched by the changing seasons, always spring, never winter or summer or fall. The glade also had the ability to heal the wounds of the deceased that were buried there, perfectly preserving them against rot and decay.

## Leandra's Den

Leandra’s Den is at the edge of the glade, the entrance partially blocked by a fallen tombstone, the small cave itself created by a willow tree’s upturned roots.
Maggie Elbourne

**Maggie Elbourne** was a research assistant to Dr. Aldous Carling. She was tasked by ODAR to test the influence of the Timepiece on the human psyche. She believe these experiments were solely on the mice she was testing them on, but ODAR was more concerned with what the tests effects would be on her. After growing more horrified by the effects on the mice she had experimented on, Maggie left ODAR's employ and went into hiding, taking one of the surviving mice, Pandora, with her.

Maggie is played by Lauren Shippen.

Serafina and the Seven Stars

## Synopsis

Braeden goes to boarding school, and Serafina is hating the lack of danger, and it begins to make her paranoid.

However, Braeden comes back for one night to say goodbye. They notice a white deer, who is being hunted. Serafina and Braeden save it, and Braeden heals her. He leaves no trace in the morning, which leads Serafina to doubt herself. She begins to think it was a hallucination.

Mr. Vanderbilt shows up the next morning, telling Serafina that she will move upstairs and attend fancy dinners to help protect Mrs. Vanderbilt and her new daughter, a baby named Cornelia, nicknamed Nell.

Later, hunters, including Serafina's new friend, Jess Braddick, and her father, an obnoxious hunter named Colonel Braddick, go out to hunt mountain lions. They tree Serafina's siblings, the cubs, and she shifts into her black panther form to protect them.

Soon, a fog rolls around, and Serafina finds herself clawing and biting at whatever she can find. She startles Jess's horse who bucks it’s rider — the fall braking Jess’s leg.

When the fog dissipates, Serafina finds all the hunters dead except Jess, who is injured. She comes to the conclusion that she killed the entire hunting party accidentally.

Jess's body disappears. There is a search party sent out for her.

Serafina witnesses Mr. Vanderbilt murdering the cook and kidnaps Baby Nell to protect her. She finds herself tailed.

In Asheville, Serafina’s carriage crashes, and she, Nell, and the other inhabitants, Essie and Nolan, are in the wreckage.

There, she finds Braeden, who vouches for her, and she is forgiven after Mr. Vanderbilt realizes what happened, that it was a duplicate that murdered the cook.

Soon, Lieutenant Kingsley finds Jess, but a medieval warrior and two lions attack them.

They are defeated, and Serafina finds that they were statues, and Serafina and Braeden realizes that the magic of the Seven Stars did this, and it is all the white deer, also a statue.

There is soon an epic showdown with the statues, and Serafina's Pa finally sees Serafina's true form.

Braeden and Serafina go to the Angel's Glade.

Braeden is picked up by a wyvern statue.

Serafina gets the white deer to bring the angel to life, but the deer can't control her.

The angel defeats the deer, and soon Biltmore is getting repaired and things begin to go back to normal.

Braeden gets his uncle to make a school at Biltmore, that he, the servants’ children, Serafina, and Jess Braddick — who was taken in by the inhabitants of the manor as she was technically now an orphan — can attend, so he doesn't have to go to boarding school and be separated from Serafina.

At the lake, Braeden and Serafina reflect on how maybe Serafina gave the white deer its vengeance because the Seven Stars magic reflects whatever is going on at the moment, and Serafina was being violent.

They then declare their love for each other.

A tall and sinewy man, Uhriah had long, knotted gray hair, a gray beard and a gray mustache. He had a weathered, craggy, lined, leathery face, and silver eyes.

#### Owl Form:

As an owl, Uriah is larger than Rowena in her owl-form and has white feathers.

## Relationships

Rowena: Uriah paid Rowena no attention for the first decade and a-half of her life. He let Rowena live in England with her mother, a minor noble, only coming along to “collect” his daughter when she would be emotionally vulnerable after living in an orphanage for several years.

Viewing his daughter as a tool to be used when he had need of her, Uriah trained her to be his apprentice through abuse, both physical and psychological.

When Rowena was about fourteen, Uriah sent her to Biltmore Estate under the guise of a English aristocrat hoping she can be used to lower their defenses.

## Abilities

**Magic Mastery:** Uriah is a sorcerer, a practitioner of magic. This includes making potions and casting spells. While using the Twisted Staff, his natural magical ability were amplified — giving him complete and utter control over every animal he came in contact with.

**Shape-shifting:** As an unspecified kind of shape-shifter, Uriah can shape-shift into an owl.
