Chapter 7

Chapter 7, **"Enemy"**, is the seventh chapter of Act 1 of Exit/Corners.

## Synopsis

(From this point on, an in-game synopsis is available in the form of a "recap" of each chapter at the beginning of the next one. They are in the form of Ink's thoughts as he thinks back on what has just happened.)

Amidst the infighting happening between the contestants, Ink beckons Aether back into the boiler room to have a private chat in which they devise a plan to unmask Sent's true nature.

The others are wary of the two when they return to the hallway, threatening to lock them permanently in the boiler room should they not confess what they were up to; Ink persuades them into focusing on the puzzle first. After it's solved, Sent emerges on the screen to debrief their next course of action.

Their speech is interrupted by Aether slapping Ink, causing everyone to realise Sent was also distracted by it, meaning they're watching them in real time and therefore can't be one of their own. Sent is impressed by Ink's wit as the latter thoroughly explains his gambit of figuring out how to reveal the former's identity; they then leave the contestants to let them figure out the following room by themselves.

Before they can do that, however, Liza begins to feel sick and vomit blood, just like Ink did not too long ago...

Bellbridge University

video File:Placeholder
Bellbridge University is a significant place.  Most of the Contestants , in some way, are linked to it.

## Relationships with Contestants

Ink Greer: Ink attends Bellbridge

Aether: Aether attends Bellbridge, studying psychology.

Liza Thatcher: Liza's father was part of the Bellbridge University Sponsorship Council.

Rae Nandon: Attended Bellbridge before dropping out.  He had programmed RN and presented it to the Bellbridge University Sponsorship Council.  Unbeknownst to him, his girlfriend Tiana had already stolen his program and presented it to the Council as her own work, leading them to think that Rae had plagiarised her.  They rejected his project, and an angry Rae dropped out.

Beth Marche: Unknown.
Chapter 10

## Synopsis

I’m not doing so hot.

Nothing makes sense and it’s really starting to get to me.

For starters, Beth is positive that the person on the other end of her Gemini was her son. You know, the one that died.

Took his own life some years back. But she’s convinced it was him. Not sure what to make of it.

So there’s that. But that’s not even the most confusing thing to happen to me in the last hour. That’s be the ink.

No, not me. Actual ink. From a pen.

I was giving a short lesson on ciphers - the puzzle in the last room used one - so I wrote down an example to make it easier to understand.

Rae ended up writing something else down using the same pen.

But the ink was a different colour when Rae wrote something.

I couldn’t figure it out. Why was the pen a different colour depending on who was using it?

I ended up having a bit of a freak out over it. Then I started coughing up blood again. Wasn’t pretty.

And then, I don’t know how to describe it, but the room got all warped and tore into two halves. Impossible, I know.

Aether managed to calm me down, but… I thought I was losing my mind. And hey, maybe I am.

But there’s got to be an explanation for all of that, right?

## Trivia

* In one of the hint dialogues with Rae, he mentions that he used to smoke a while back, but Tiana had convinced him to stop temporarily. However, when he broke up with her, he returned to smoking, even saying that he would have some on him had their belongings not been confiscated.

Chapter 1

Chapter 1, named "The Four Elements Hotel" after the location that the game takes place in, is the first chapter of Exit/Corners. The chapter introduces the game's contestants: Ink Greer, Aether, Rae Nandon, Beth Marche and Liza Thatcher, as well as Ink's contact, Sean Ward, with Aether's unnamed father also being mentioned as her contact. It also introduces the premise of the game: the five contestants must escape the hotel by solving puzzles within 24 hours, at the end of which it will collapse with anyone remaining still inside (and most likely dying), while their contacts are the only people from outside that they can talk to.

## Synopsis

After an inner monologue in a dream, Ink wakes up in the Four Elements Hotel in the same room and bed as Aether. They introduce themselves awkwardly and wonder how they got there, realizing that they both go to Bellbridge University. Initially believing that they went partying together, Ink notes that on both accounts neither him nor Aether went out the previous day. On the wall is an image with the logo of the Four Elements Hotel. Ink discovers that all his belongings are gone and he only has a PDA-like device that can only contact one person, his best friend Sean. After Aether reveals that her contact is her father, Sean tells Ink he suddenly got the PDA in his mailbox that only sends and receives messages to and from him. Ink and Aether leave the room and in the hallway, they meet and introduce themselves to Rae and Beth, who were unable to open a locked door needed to leave. They see a screen to scan their hand prints, noting that they are called "contestants" and that there is a fifth person that has not arrived. With Rae and Beth having used the screen, Ink and Aether scan their hand prints and wait for the fifth person. Liza comes out of her room revealing that she was eavesdropping on their conversation, and despite trying to force her to give an introduction, the only information she gives is her name and wealth as she believes they have kidnapped her. After Liza reluctantly scans her hand after being forced by Rae, a face on the screen introduces the game, where the five contestants must escape the hotel before it collapses in 24 hours, and the first puzzle appears.

Ink successfully completes the puzzle and unlocks the door, and Rae, Beth and Liza advance to the next room while Ink and Aether stay behind to continue figuring out how they got there. Aether notes that Ink is bleeding from the nose, and Ink starts coughing up blood.

## Puzzle

   The first puzzle consists of a 4x4 grid with 12 negative spaces and 4 positive spaces. The note on the side says "TURN A SQUARE INTO A +".

379

379 is a number that repeatedly appears in Exit/Corners. According to Aether's supposed clairvoyance, this number is significant to the game somehow.

## List of Appearances

### Chapter 1

Though hard to discern and appearing for only a moment, Aether and Ink's room number is 379.

Ink mistakes the date, which is supposedly "3/19", for "3/79". Aether later implies in Chapter 16 that she mistook it, too.

### Chapter 6

While this could be a coincidence, in the hint, the number 373.15 is given for Kelvin, while in the puzzle itself, the corresponding slot only says 373. If one adds the last 3 digits of the extended number together, one gets the number 379. However, it could simply be explained by the fact that, since Sent had more space in the hint, he could afford to be more precise with the number.

### Chapter 12

In the default layout of puzzle, the first column consists of a 3 of hearts, a 7 of spades, and a 9 of diamonds.

### Chapter 14

In the puzzle, one of the arms on the right-hand side has a weight of 37.9.

### Chapter 16

A picture appears with the number painted on it, with the 7 in red and slightly tilted.

379 appears in the default setup of the puzzle, in the second row of the numbers section. Plus, the default date is March 19th, the supposed date of Exit/Corners and also the number Ink had earlier mistaken for 379.

### Chapter 18

The aforementioned picture from Chapter 16 appears again as they backtrack.

The default arrangement of the first puzzle includes 379 in the middle row,

The default arrangement of the second puzzle includes 379 in the right column, as does the third.
Contestants

In Exit/Corners, the mysterious host known as Sent refers to the characters as Contestants. There were originally five Contestants, with two being added later, but two of them are presumed to be deceased.

The original five were

* Ink Greer (Status: Alive)
* Liza Thatcher (Status: Alive)
* Beth Marche (Status: Deceased. Cause of death: blunt force trauma to the back of her head, with a painting being the murder weapon. Murderer is unknown as of chapter 25.)
* Aether (Status: Alive)
* Rae Nandon (Status: Alive)

The two newcomers are:

* Tiana (Status: Alive. Previously Rae's Contact.)
* Sean Ward (Status: Presumed deceased. Previously Ink's Contact.)

Chapter 22

Chapter 22, called "Peace" is the fifth chapter of Arc 2 of Exit/Corners.

## Synopsis

Ink drags Liza back to the cavern hallway in chapter 7 to try and force her to reveal her secret. When she refuses, Ink contacts Sent via Gemini to tell him to show up on the cavern's monitor. Sent then decides to blow up another one of the hotel's foundations, saying Ink had cheated by revealing that he had been communicating with Sent to Liza, disobeying Sent. When Ink tries to get the secret out of him, Sent refuses as well. Liza then gains permission from Sent to tell Ink that Sent is blackmailing her to keep her secret. However, Ink finds a loophole in Sent's rules: if he can guess her secret himself, he will be able to talk about it with Liza. Sent decides to turn it into an official puzzle. Ink then finds out that Liza used to be blind, but mysteriously was able to see again when she woke up in Exit/Corners. Sent is also apparently able to control her vision at will, turning it on and off at his pleasure. Overjoyed, the two Contestants go back to the main hall, only to find the others in a state of panic, saying something terrible has happened. The chapter ends with Ink rushing into one of the Blue wing's bedrooms and finding Beth sprawled across the floor.

Chapter 3

Chapter 3, **"Distant Contact"**, is the third chapter of Arc 1 of Exit/Corners.

## Synopsis

After being spurned by Rae in the third room, as he still too infuriated for company, Ink and the three women retire back to the lounge to talk to their Contacts. Ink explains to Sean his overall situation and asks him for help in finding his location. After chatting shortly with Beth about her Contact Earl, her son, and his refusal to talk to her, Rae comes back in to take a break from "puzzle-solving". While Aether, Beth and Liza go try out the puzzle themselves, Ink tries to draw Rae into a conversation about his past. Failing to do so, they both go back into the third room, a small corridor, to solve the puzzle. Afterwards, Ink finally gets a message from Sean at the same time as Beth's son responds to her as well. The chapter ends with the surprising cliff-hanger that, according to Sean, the Four Elements Hotel "no longer exists".

Chapter 8

Chapter 8, **"Exit?"**, is the eighth chapter of Act 1 of Exit/Corners.

## Synopsis

Beth tends to an ill Liza who is still suffering the aftereffects of a sudden and unexplicable malaise. Aether prods Ink into disclosing his similar experience in the first hallway to the others, to which he agrees to should it be appropriate to do so in the future.

Both of them and Rae survey the next room, a main hallway of sorts containing four coloured doors and a large gate they believe to be the "exit". Rae comes to the conclusion that it won't open until all the four pathways behind the other doors (the "corners") are explored, and moves on to the puzzle on the exit door's screen.

Having finished it, Ink meets Sent and is presented with a choice: going through the Green Door or the Red Door first. Sent cryptically informs that the Green Door is to be picked if he treasures the *past* and the Red one if he relishes the *present*; they also add that they would rather the *Green Door* be selected.

Beth and Liza catch up to the others and everyone decides to take a break in which Ink manages to converse with some of the contestants and communicate with Sean. Eventually, he gets up and is ready to make his decision...

Chapter 26

Chapter 26, **"Slash"**, is the ninth chapter of arc 2 of Exit/Corners.

## Synopsis

Having found a shattered portrait frame in the washroom right next to Beth's corpse, Ink deduces that she was, in fact, assassinated by one of the other Contestants, and shepherds them to the recently unlocked bar in the Blue wing.

Ink opts to investigate the murder case in lieu of solving the next puzzle. After exhaustive examination of alibis, motivation and opportunity, the discussion ultimately devolves into a merry-go-round of accusations. Rae raises suspicion upon Aether's ample timeframe in which she'd be able to retrieve the murder weapon and kill Beth with minimal risk of being found out; Aether casts doubt on Tiana's claim of remaining entirely alongside Sean by the Black wing area; lastly, Tiana exposes Rae's criminal history consisting of committing a series of arsons around Bellbridge (one of which inadvertently nearly claimed Liza's life) in the recent past.

Still missing irrefutable evidence, Ink (with Liza's assistance) eventually emerges with a tentative method of unmasking the culprit: a questionnaire written by each of the three suspects individually. Shedding light into Tiana's knowledge of "Exit/Corners"'s true name, he uncovers her involvement in Beth's death. Tiana evades capture and subdues Aether, taking her hostage and escaping the others with the help of Sent.

Older Pig

**Older Pig**is one of the main protagonists of the entire Oats franchise, along with his brother, Younger Pig. He has appeared in every episode thus far. As his name suggests, he is the elder of the two brothers.

## Appearance

Older Pig is simply a typical pig, and all pigs use his appearance, with tweaks such as color. He is identical to his younger brother. Older Pig has shown the ability to transform, but this tends to just tint his body. His appearance, as well as all his recolors as other characters, resemble the domestic pig.

## Personality

Older Pig is shown to be the braver of the brothers, being the one to start the thought of stopping KEK. He is also shown to be good at rapping, defeating Porkchop the Rapper in a rap battle. However, he appears to be quite gluttonous, always asking for his brother's oats.

## In the Canon

### Season 1

Older Pig first appeared in the first episode, and has appeared in almost every episode thus far. In the majority of episodes, he asks for his brother's oats, only to get denied. He becomes tired of his pen, and explores the outside world, inconsequentially encountering KEK. This causes an incident where KEK opens a portal to The Dimension of Oats to terrorize the people of The Dimension of Pigs. He and his brother fight off the Oats to confront KEK and lose. This allows KEK to take over the Dimension of Pigs and ban oats. At this, Older Pig goes out with his brother to stop KEK, meeting Big Pete in the process. The trio, led by Older Pig, set off, embarking on multiple adventures to prepare for the battle against KEK, the most notable of which is obtaining and consuming the Oats of Gold. The power of the Oats of Gold, as well as his comrades, comes together when he defeats KEK with his own laser. After KEK is defeated, all returns to normal, and his brother concedes one oat.

### Season 2

Soon after KEK's defeat, Older Pig's former friend Cow switches sides in a plot to revive KEK. Over the coming episodes, we learn more of Cow's plan, until eventually KEK is revived once again.
Conspiracy Pete

**Conspiracy Pete** is a minor character that first appears in The Return of The Fabled Spice Brothers. He does not play any major roles in the story, despite getting his own bonus episode.

## Appearance

Conspiracy Pete, like all other pigs, looks exactly like Older Pig in shape. However, he is light grey, and is always depicted with a tinfoil hat (due to his conspiracy nature).

## Personality

As his name suggests, Conspiracy Pete often over-exaggerates things to the point of absurdity in the form of conspiracy theories. Until the events of The Oats Movie 3, he fiercely believed that the Creator, was out to destroy the world.

## In the Canon

### Capo Season 3

Conspiracy Pete first appears in The Return of The Fabled Spice Brothers, in an offhand note where he says he killed the Spice Brothers, and then proceeds to rant about his conspiracy until Big Pete appears and seemingly kills him. However, he appears to have survived, witnessing the entrance of the oat counterpart of Big Pete. But this time, he is actually killed in the resulting attack. The Creator, however, revives him, turning his belief around about the Creator and supporting him by travelling back in time to retrieve the Oat Brothers to stop Big Pete's killing spree. His attempt fails, unfortunately, and the past Oat Brothers, the Creator and Conspiracy Pete himself are killed. He has yet to make any appearances in Season 4.

## Trivia

* In his bonus episode, Conspiracy Pete explains the CAPTCHA system as a conspiracy theory.
Ink Greer

Ink in the opening scene

**Ink Greer** is the main protagonist of Exit/Corners, as well as one of the five Contestants. He has a friend named Sean Ward, who is his Gemini's Contact.

## Background

Ink was born as Kim Greer however, he came out as a transgender male, changing his name to Ink. These actions lead to his parents disowning him.

At some point, Ink began studying at Bellbridge U, the university in Bellbridge, where he lived. He was a loner and not popular, possibly due to the stigma surrounding LGBTQ+ people. However, he met Sean one day, and the two of them have been close friends ever since. Unbeknownst to him, Sean only became his friend to groom him as a Contestant for Exit/Corners, a test for Nolan Thatcher's CORNERS program.

Ink used to visit Bellbridge U's bookstore, and was friendly with the owner, until Rae Nandon burned it down in his arson spree due to the owner actually sexually harassing women.

## Story

Upon waking up in the Four Elements Hotel, Ink meets Aether in his room. They feel awkward at first, neither knowing what was going on and thinking they had a one-night stand because they woke up in the same bed, but they quickly brushed it off and got along. Aether decides to pretend they are in a detective book, and lets Ink choose to be the detective or sidekick. Shortly after, they notice a picture, realizing where they are.

Once they leave the room, Ink comes across Rae and Beth next to a panel, which says "2/5". Rae explains that it must mean 2 out of 5 people pressed their hand onto the panel, which Aether does soon. Shortly after, Ink does so as well, leaving it as "4/5" and leaving the group waiting for the fifth person. After waiting for a while, Liza arrives, accusing the others of kidnapping her and revealing that she was actually there, but had been eavesdropping on the conversation in her room. Beth manages to convince Liza that they were not the ones who had kidnapped her and to put her hand on the screen. Afterwards, Sent arrives to introduce the puzzle to them. Once they are done, Ink begins to cough up blood.
Chapter 14

## Synopsis

Good news: we made it out of the first Corner alive!

The “green” section of the game is, as far as I can tell, compete! We found the first key card and have officially made our way through the Red Door. Go us!

Though I guess it’s not all good news. Sean, my Contact, tells me he’s being followed. There’s no way this isn’t related to Exit/Corners.

I can’t help him while I’m trapped in here, so all I can do is hope that he stays safe.

After clearing our heads a bit, we went and solved the first puzzle in the red section. It was a number-based puzzle that centered around a man with a strange condition.

Rae made some off-colour jokes about having one arm, which made Liza pretty upset. He later apologized, thank goodness. I don’t think those two hate each other as much as they’d like us to believe.

Rae was acting a little suspicious, so I followed him back into the main hall. There, I caught him using his Gemini, which he had previously told me he hadn’t touched.

But right as we were heading back to rejoin the others - WHAM! He slams his Gemini right into a wall.

So here I am, wondering what the hell just happened.

The complete transcript can be found here.

## Trivia

* Aether mentions liking card games (mostly family ones) and reading. She also loves skating and pinball.

* Liza mentions that she's been taking martial arts and self-defense classes since she was young and also practices swimming. She likes K-pop and online poker. As for reading, she mentions that she goes through her father's company archives.

* Rae seems to be great at mental math, as he stated that going through all the combinations in his head was a lot faster than trying them out on the screen.

* Beth mentions being bad at math.

Chapter 15

## Synopsis

I’ve come to the conclusion that Rae’s got issues.

Just a little while ago, he went absolutely ballistic and smashed his Gemini against the wall. Thing broke into a dozen little pieces.

He tried to play it off like it was nothing, but everyone was, understandably, a little concerned.

Beth put some pressure on him and tried to get him to reveal who was on the other end of his Gemini. Nobody knew who Rae’s Contact was, after all, and Beth thought that the fact that he was withholding their identity was suspicious. I was inclined to agree.

After some persuasion, Rae finally agreed to tell me and only me. If I heard something fishy, I’d report back to the others, but otherwise I’d have to agree to keep my mouth shut.

I thought this was kinda strange, but everyone seemed to be okay with it, so I didn’t fight it.

So then Rae told me about his Contact; an ex-girlfriend of his.

Her name is Tiana. The two of them were high school sweethearts. They ended up both going to Bellbridge University for computer science so they could stay together.

But at some point during their university career things took a turn for the worse. I’m not exactly sure what happened between them, but it culminated in Tiana stealing something from Rae - an algorithm he’d worked on known as RN.

She plagiarized his work and Rae didn’t get a lick of credit for what he’d been working on. There was a big fight. They broke up and Rae ended up dropping out.

And that was pretty much it. Rae’s just too embarrassed or prideful to bring it up with the others. I assured the remaining Contestants that there was nothing to worry about.

We almost died trying to complete the puzzle, but we didn’t, so that’s good, I guess.

Anyway, after the puzzle, I caught Sent in the middle of a lie. He was being all misogynistic when BAM - I reminded him that he told me that he wasn’t a man. I asked him what his or her deal was.

But instead of owning up to slip-up, je just spouted a crappy cop-out, called me “Kim”, and ran away.

And now all eyes are on me...

Devouring Technique

< Xuanyuan

## ***Introduction***

*This is a yellow class, but it could become a tao class technique.But one have to keep devouring in order to achieve that. Not everyone can learn it, only the Body Born of all Creation.The body born of all of creation can absorb everything. If someone without this special physique tried to "**Devouring Technique**" they wouldn't be able to tame the devouring power. They would be incompatible, and the person would implode and die. The Body Born of all Creation is much stronger than an ordinary body, so it is best suited to train by using "**Devouring Technique**".*

**-There’s no limit to its growth. This technique regardless of its class can enable the person using it to learn any and all techniques without any consequences as normally one is limited by their original technique like MC at the beginning however since he has this technique and his body of all creation, he can learn all techniques, becoming a man who devours all and becoming the strongest person in the world.**

*The special ability of the Body of All Creations lets MC Recite the devouring technique within the body by itself without MC Doing anything at all* .(Ch-26)

***Devouring Technique** is divided into different parts :-*

* ***The Way of Absorption** (Ch-15) - Fighter Realm*

-Allowed its practitioner to absorb spiritual Qi from the universe continuously, even when they were not meditating

* ***The Way of Refining Flesh*** (Ch-15) - Warrior Realm

- Muscles seemed to come alive. Bit by bit,the muscles were like individual living organisms, absorbing Qi from the universe like hungry babies.

-Xuanyuan was able to directly absorb Qi from the universe. Turned the qi to fighter qi directly. (Normally done with a technique.)

* ***The Way of Refining Bones*** (Ch-15) - Master Realm

The Book of Acquisition

Book of Acquisition

The first chapter was titled “The Understanding of Landscapes”. It carefully recorded the Feng Shui of different landscapes, it also contained the methods of determining how to find precious land, lands of great wealth, lands suitable for Xian, and badlands; lands that were filled with evil and despair. Fighting stones were filled with natural Qi from the universe. Depending on how long the stones had been immersed and the quality of the Qi used, it would greatly affect the quality. When natural Qi filled an area for a long period of time, fighting stones were formed from the materials that were only able to absorb a small amount of Qi, while jades and crystals formed when a material absorbed vast amounts of Qi.

## Synopsis

Ink informs the other Contestants about Sean's discovery that The Four Elements Hotel was destroyed 20 years ago. After a short discussion, they all head into the next room, a hall with elevators and a locked stairway. Forced to take the elevators, the player must chose which person he must go with, as there are only four elevators for five people. Once inside, however, Sent lays his trap by forcing them to solve a puzzle while the elevator gradually starts filling up with water. After doing so, the elevators go back to the hall, freeing the five of them. Shortly later, due to Rae's explanation of how the game has to be linear since it is automated, Liza discloses her suspicions that Sent is one of the Contestants themselves. This sparks a wave of suspicion and paranoia which will persist throughout the following chapters.

Eclipse System

**The Eclipse System** is a system found within the Cerberus Galaxy.

The Eclipse System is found to be well known due to it housing the planet of Horizon, which would eventually form into the successor of the Ra'dam Federation - The Unified Governments of the Republic.

The system is known for its rich, resource filled planets which even some centuries after humans developed space flight still have yet to be exhausted of. Due to this many private businesses find profit in developing their structure in the system which in turn has made the system a sprawling jewel within its quadrant.

#### Planets found within the system:

* Horizon
* Dymir
* Rapture Prime
* Coria
* Vestige
* Eta Cairne
* Typhus
* Veil
* Novak

## Author Notes & Trivia

Myridan & Loki were cut from Remastered due to not wanting too many planets in a single system, atop that Loki also references Norse Mythology which has no presence in the universe in regards to planets.

Horizon, Typhus, Coria and Veil were the first four planets developed for the Eclipse System.

The Eclipse System was actually going to be named the Theri System prior to the creation of the Theron Protectorate, but was ultimately given the name Eclipse as it goes hand-in-hand with the system's capital world of Horizon referencing the sun.

Chapter 9

Chapter 9, **"Once a Cheater"**, is the ninth chapter of Act 1 of Exit/Corners.

## Synopsis

Ink decides to proceed through the Green Door; Liza briefly considers staying behind but is persuaded to move along with the others.

The study they enter doesn't appear to contain a puzzle at first and so they start searching inside for any clue on what to do next. Rae suggests lockpicking the door leading to the adjacent area but is warned by Sent that doing so constitutes cheating and there will be punishment for acting on it. He does it anyway and is readily castigated: Sent blows up one of the Semtex piles on one part of the building's foundation, reiterating that they'll do it again whenever any contestant attempts to "cheat" under his established guidelines.

The puzzle becomes available and is solved. Ink stays behind in the study to speak with a uncharacteristically gloomy Beth. She reveals to have broken her Gemini in the earthquake caused by the explosion, losing her sole mean of communication with Earl, her estranged son and contact. Ink then learns of an intriguing, if not unsettling fact about Earl and his relationship with his mother...

Wonderland is the most nonsensical, riddle-tastic, wonderland-iful place ever after, and I miss it dearly.
Body Born of all Creation

The body born of all of creation can absorb everything. If someone without this special physique tried to "*Devouring Technique*" they wouldn't be able to tame the devouring power. They would be incompatible, and the person would implode and die. The body born of all creation is much stronger than an ordinary body, so it is best suited to train by using "*Devouring Technique*".
Briar Beauty

**Briar Beauty** is a 2013-introduced and all-around character. She is part of the Sleeping Beauty story as the next Sleeping Beauty and she is a student at Ever After High. in the destiny conflict she is on the Royal side because she respects her destiny, but she is a Royal with doubts.

Raven Queen

**Raven Queen** is a 2013-introduced and all-around character. She is part of *Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs* as the next Evil Queen, and she is a student at Ever After High. In the destiny conflict, she is on the Rebel side. In fact, she technically is the founder of the Rebel movement, because it was her rejection of her destiny that inspired others. She dislikes this situation, however, because it makes the other students, Rebels and uncertain Royals alike, come to her for guidance, which she cannot provide. Raven is not evil by any stretch of the definition and so playing the role of villain does not sit well with her. Nor does she enjoy the prospect of the punishment that she, as villain, is destined to. Resolving only her own problem already takes a lot of her energy and as such she cannot help others make their own personal decisions.

## Quote

What if I want to choose my own Happily Ever After!
House Chermer

House Chermer is one of the thirteen great noble houses, and rules over the kingdom of Brinn. Their castle, Windamere, rests in the city of Highwall.

The Chermer family is somewhat small and private. Their people know little about them personally, and all public appearances are done in the context of business rather than pleasantries.

The family has strict morals, and they like to have a very simple and straightforward bloodline, meaning a Chermer woman is meant to have only one child. If a second child is born, it is passed to a noble vassal family immediately after birth and raised separate from the royal family.

The Chermers are humble and quiet, and don't enjoy conflict, preferring to rule peacefully and stay out of political issues. This has gained them the label of cowards from some other kingdoms.

## Culture

### Traits

Members of House Chermer are humans. Red hair and blue eyes are common, and it is rare that a child is born without them.

### Customs

It is customary for women to have only one husband and only one child during her lifetime. If more children are born they are sent away.

Marriages usually take place between the royal family and their vassal families, and intentional inter-marrying is seen as extremely taboo.

The dead are most commonly buried, and funerals are a very private ordeal.

## Members

Queen: Lillina Chermer

King: Thalmus Chermer

Prince: Corren Chermer

extended family is currently unknown.
Asmus Caltaris

(pron. AZ-miss)

Asmus Caltaris is the eldest prince of the Caltaris royal family. He is heir to the throne.

Asmus is tall and handsome, but despite his fair features he carries a strange darkness about him. He is like his father, harsh and too stubborn for his own good. He is serious, and is rarely seen smiling unless in public.

He seems a bit obsessed with his image, always going above and beyond when in public and facing his people. His almost childlike competitive nature leads him to perform quite a bit when under the watch of an audience, as he intends to prove that he is not only the rightful heir but also the most deserving.

This competitiveness spreads beyond his public image, though. At home he strives to outdo his younger siblings in every single task, and doesn't take losing lightly. Unlike his siblings, though, he is more likely to brood silently than to throw a fit over something upsetting.

Asmus is desperate to please his father above all else, wanting more than anything to be recognized by him as truly fit for the crown. In general, this is successful. However, it seems that he and his father can't come to an agreement regarding marriage. Asmus is arranged to marry his cousin. However, he seems to be uninterested in her, and has always shown much more interest in his sister Katrin, having been making sexual and romantic advances toward her since they were very young.

## Relationships

### Parents

Coelwynn Caltaris. Mother. Uninterested in her, seems to think of her more like a nuisance now that he's older.

Baerth Caltaris. Father. Desperate for his respect and approval, and admires him very much.

### Siblings

Katrin Caltaris. Younger sister. Has an almost unsettling infatuation with her, and now that they're older, he looks at her almost as if she were a piece of meat. Wants her as a wife, but only in the sense that it would make her his 'possession'.

Karolin Caltaris. Younger sister. Annoyed and exhausted by her, and treats her coldly.

Lennart Caltaris. Younger brother. Annoyed by him, and thinks he's immature.

Gwennyn Caltaris. Younger sister. Indifferent about her, and ignores her completely most of the time.

Kaleb Caltaris. Younger brother. uninterested in him; ignores him.
Lennart Caltaris

(pron. LEN-ert)

Lennart Caltaris is the middle child of the Caltaris royal family. He's notorious for being a troublemaker.

Since he was born, Lennart has been almost constantly in trouble somehow. He's done everything from tripping and pranking his siblings to sedating or poisoning servants. His parents find it difficult to keep him under their control.

He doesn't take much seriously, and is as selfish as he is playful. Only somewhat recently has he started pulling stunts that leave others seriously hurt, and his family seems a bit concerned that he's going to take things too far soon.

He's slightly more controlled while in public settings, but it is no secret to the kingdom that he's problematic. Many people are thankful that he wasn't the eldest son.

While he has technically been trained in both combat and performance skills, he's excused from both on a regular basis for the safety of the others involved. For the most part, his parents let him do what he wants as long as he does it somewhere away from them.

## Relationships

### Parents

Coelwynn Caltaris. Mother. She's constantly worried for him and his safety, and he wants nothing to do with her.

Baerth Caltaris. Father. Baerth has no patience for Lennart whatsoever, and has a fierce temper, so they mutually avoid each other for the most part.

### Siblings

Asmus Caltaris. Older Brother. Targets him for being serious and important, and loves to annoy him.

Katrin Caltaris. Older Sister. Used to bother her a lot more, but got bored of her reserved reactions and gave up for the most part over time.

Karolin Caltaris. Older Sister. They had a mutual bullying thing going on for a while, but now he's lost interest in messing with her mostly.

Gwennyn Caltaris. Younger Sister. Picks on her often and harshly. Enjoys that no one comes to her rescue.

Kaleb Caltaris. Younger Brother. Tries to get him to join in on the mischief and teach him to be problematic. Likes to blame things on him to make him cry.
