Uova

I giocatori possono ottenere Animali far schiudere le Uova utilizzando le pozioni di schiusura. Il tipo di pozione utilizzata sull'uovo determinerà il colore/tema dell'animale (ad esempio, se utilizzi una pozione deserto su un uovo di lupo, farai nascere un Lupo Deserto.)

Dopo che un giocatore ha completato la loro seconda attività, sblocca la possibilità di ricevere casualmente delle uova come drop quando completano abitudini, daily, e cose da fare. Inoltre, i giocatori possono comprare le uova dal mercato con le gemme. I giocatori possono vendere delle uova per ottenere dell'oro.

### Uova della Generazione 1

Queste uova sono ottenibili via drop. Possono anche essere acquistate nel mercato per 3 gemme ciascuna. Tutte le uova hanno la stessa possibilità di drop. Cucciolo di Orso

Uova

### Uova delle Missioni

Le uova delle missioni (anche conosciute come Uova V2 o Uova di Generazione 2) sono ottenibili completando delle specifiche Missioni. Sono state introdotte nel 2014. La tabella è nascosta per evitare possibili spoiler.

Come tutte le altre uova, i doppioni di queste uova possono essere venduti nel Mercato per 3 punti oro a testa. Possono anche essere comprati per 3 gemme a testa, ma solo dopo che il giocatore ha completato la quest rilevante.

Fatta eccezione per l'uovo normale, che non può essere comprato; l'unico modo per ottenerlo è completare la missione Caccia alle Uova, per la quale le pergamene sono solo disponibili durante l'evento primaverile.
Forza

La **Forza** (STR) è una statistica del personaggio che influenza i colpi critici e il danno fatto ad un Boss. È la statistica principale per i Guerrieri e quella secondaria per gli Assassini.

Questa statistica aumenta la possibilità di un giocatore di mettere a segno un colpo critico quando compie una missione, e aumenta il bonus ottenuto dai colpi critici. Aumenta inoltre il danno fatto ai Boss.

Un giocatore di qualsiasi classe può aumentare la propria Forza distribuendoci punti statistica o equipaggiando armature e armi che gli danno un bonus alla statistica FOR. Guerrieri e Assassini guadagnano un bonus di classe addizionale indossando armi e copricapi che danno FOR ed erano specificamente intesi per la loro classe.

I Guerrieri possono usare l'abilità Presenza Valorosa per buffare la Forza dei membri del proprio gruppo di una quantità determinata dalla loro stessa Forza, buff esclusi.

### Punteggio

Nello specifico, i punti in Forza hanno i seguenti effetti sui colpi critici e sul danno:

* Aumento della possibilità di un colpo critico dell'1% del valore base per punto in FOR (La possibilità iniziale è del 3%, quindi una FOR di 100 raddoppierebbe le possibilità e le porterebbe al 6%).
	+ Aumenta il bonus da colpo critico (Inizialmente per circa il 2% per punto in FOR - Quando la FOR aumenta, ogni punto extra in FOR dà un minore bonus per il colpo critico).

* Aumenta il danno fatto ai mostri durante le quest contro i Boss dello 0.5% per punto in FOR (una FOR di 50 moltiplicherebbe il danno del 1.25).
	+ Questo incremento del danno al boss viene calcolato prima di ogni bonus derivante da un colpo critico (con FOR uguale a 50 l'incremento del danno al boss verrebbe moltiplicato per 1.25, prima che venga applicato il moltiplicatore del colpo critico di 2.3, per un totale di moltiplicazione di 2.875).
Personaggi in Habitica

La pagina che stai per leggere non è ancora completa o è mancante di informazioni/immagini. Il link alla pagina (in inglese) originale è il seguente:

☀http://habitica.wikia.com/wiki/Characters\_in\_Habitica#Justin\_the\_Guide

In aggiunta ai normali giocatori, Habitica è popolata da diversi personaggi, la maggior parte basata sulle persone reali che hanno contribuito allo sviluppo di Habitica. Questi personaggi accompagnano varie caratteristiche nel gioco e molti di loro hanno ruolo nel celebrare gli Eventi Mondiali.

## **Gli Habitica NPC**

I NPC (Non-Playing Characters, ovvero Personaggi Non-Giocanti) erano i sostenitori di alto livello su Kickstarter.

**Bailey la Banditrice Cittadina**

Bailey tiene i giocatori di Habitica al corrente di tutte le novità importanti: correzione di bug, eventi, Oggetti Misteriosi e di tutte le nuove caratteristiche tanto presto quanto loro le hanno implementate. Non ha la sua vera e propria pagina, ma può essere richiamata usando l'opzione "Show Bailey" (mostra Bailey) sotto Settings (Impostazioni).

La tua vita, Il Gioco di Ruolo

### **Benvenuto**

Impara a giocare ad Habitica, un programma open-source di costruzione di abitudini, che tratta la tua vita come un Gioco di Ruolo. Questa wiki è scritta e mantenuta dai giocatori di Habitica. Per favore unisciti a noi!

Deutsch, Français, Русский, Italiano

### **Iniziare**

Dopo aver finito il Tour della Guida di Justin, ed aver eliminato le attività di esempio, è possibile iniziare la tua avventura in Habitica con tre semplici passaggi.

#### **Fase 1: Inserire le Attività**

In primo luogo, inserisci alcuni compiti. Puoi aggiungerne altre più tardi man mano che ti vengono in mente.

#### **1a. Impostare le To-Do**

Inserisci le attività che si fanno una volta o raramente nella colonna To-Do, una alla volta. È possibile cliccare su di loro per modificarle!

**1b. Impostare le Dailiy**

Inserisci le attività che devi fare ogni giorno o in un particolare giorno della settimana nella colonna Daily. Fai clic sull'icona della matita per modificare il giorno (i) della settimana in cui devono essere compiute.

#### **1c. Impostare le Abitudini**

Inserisci le abitudini che desideri rafforzare nella colonna Abitudini. È possibile modificare l'abitudine  cambiandola in solo una buona abitudine (+) o una cattiva abitudine (-).

#### **1d. Impostare le Ricompense**

Attività o premi che si desidera utilizzare come motivazione o permettere a te stesso con moderazione possono essere aggiunti nella colonna Ricompense.

Bonus: Se avete bisogno di ispirazione, vedere Esempi di Abitudini, Esempi di Dailiy, Esempi di To-Do, Esempi di Ricompense.

### **Fase 2: Guadagnare punti facendo le cose nella vita Reale**

Ora, iniziate ad affrontare i vostri obiettivi nella lista! Man mano che completate le attività, otterrete punti esperienza (XP), che consentono di salire di livello e guadagnare punti oro (GP), che permettono di acquistare Ricompense. Se cadete in cattive abitudini, o mancate le vostre Daily perdete punti salute (HP). In questo modo, le linee dell'esperienza e della salute di Habitica serviranno come un divertente indicatore del vostro progresso verso i vostri obiettivi.
UnNamed Saga Wikia

## Welcome! To the UnNamed Saga Wikia

See the latest updates and art for UnNamed Saga at the UnNamed Saga Deviantart Group and on Patreon!

## History

This is about the series **UnNamed**, which will begin with *It Began with a Box*. It is the story of young Silanis Reid, a merchants daughter on the fantasy world of Erve with dreams of adventure and battle. She finds a box containing a ring with magic powers which drags her into exactly what she wanted - an adventure to find a way to battle an evil wizard posing as a prophet of a "God" which seeks to devour her world.

UnNamed has had a few incarnations between when I started it and now. First it was to be a novel, then it was a webcomic, but I've finally settled on a Visual Novel and have been working to put everything together and do the art.

You can find an old novel version of which the story is only slightly different here. You can support UnNamed: It Began with a Box on Patreon.

Batman

**Batman** Joined the Alliance after he witnessed the kidnapping of his beloved Batcow. He felt that he needed to fill a hole in his heart now that Batcow was gone, and he felt that joining the sense of right alliance would fill that hole.

*(Within the Sense of Right Alliance Continuity, "**Batman V. Superman"** Never Happened)*
Faeries

Faeries are a colorful race of humanoid creatures with bug-like wings and large eyes. They are generally between 3-4 ½ feet tall and have childlike, hopeful and easily excitable personalities. They have amazing empathic abilities and eerie situational awareness. The average faerie lifespan is between 5000 to 8000 years, sometimes longer. They have hidden treetop villages nestled deep in forests which are protected by confusing magics which cause temporal disturbances leading humans in circles that never get them even close to the faerie villages. Because of this there are parts of forests marked by humans as haunted or evil, and these areas are generally avoided. Faerie magics are often referred to by other non-human races as “trickster magics” and are often requested by those other races to similarly protect their own hidden villages. It is considered good luck to have a frequent faerie visitor, and faeries are regarded as powerful friends by most of the non-human races.

Under Construction.
Intelligenza

L'**Intelligenza** (INT) è una statistica del Personaggio che influenza i punti esperienza e i punti mana. È la statistica principale dei Maghi e la secondaria dei Guaritori.

Un'Intelligenza più alta permette al giocatore di guadagnare più punti esperienza svolgendo missioni, che significa che saliranno di Livello più velocemente. Aumenta anche il totale punti mana del giocatore e la velocità di rigenerazione.

Una volta che gli MP del giocatore superano i 100 (il che richiede almeno 35 INT in quanto gli MP massimi si ottengono tramite la seguente formula:

M
a
x
i
m
u
m
M
# P
2
×
I
N
T
30

{\displaystyle Maximum MP = 2 \times INT + 30}

), la loro rigenerazione mana giornaliera massima diventa 10% del loro Mana massimo, invece di 10 MP ogni Cron. Il Mana guadagnato da Abitudini positive diventa 0.25% del loro Mana massimo, invece di 0.25, e il Mana guadagnato dalle quest giornaliere e dalle Cose da fare o Checklist diventa l'1% dei loro MP massimi, invece di 1.

Un giocatore di qualsiasi classe può aumentare la propria Intelligenza distribuendoci dei punti statistica (aggiunge anche 1 MP per punto in INT) o indossando un equipaggiamento che dia un bonus all'INT. I Maghi e i Guaritori guadagnano un bonus di classe addizionale se indossano armature e armi che forniscono INT che erano specificamente intesi per la loro classe.

I Maghi possono utilizzare l'abilità Terremoto per buffare i membri del proprio gruppo per un quantitativo determinato dalla propria Intelligenza, buff esclusi.

### Punteggio

Nello specifico, i punti in INT hanno il seguente effetto sull'esperienza e sulla mana:

* Aumenta l'esperienza guadagnata del 2.5% per punto in INT.
* Aumenta il Mana massimo di 2 per punto in INT.
* Per ogni punt di Intelligenza al di sopra del 35, aumenta la rigenerazione dei punti mana di 0.2 punti mana per Cron, 0.02 punti mana per il completamento di cose da fare o dailies, e 0.005 punti mana per completamento di abitudine positiva.
* Ogni volta che il giocatore assegna dei punti statistica all'intelligenza, il giocatore rigenererà, solo una volta per punto, un punto mana.
Sounaga

Sounaga are a race of semi-humanoid snake people. General lifespan unknown, assumed to be roughly 3000 years. They live underground in the Nylian desert just below the Nylia-Hundr Buma border/Thimiskaminga channel. They have a humanoid upper body, but the head and lower torso of a snake. Their scaly skin comes in a variety of colors depending on how close they are to the small rainforest at the top of Nylia's east side.

They have the stereotypical pronounced s when they speak, and their tongues flicker. They can get up to fifteen feet long, they tower over pretty much any other creature they come across and are capable of devouring humans whole should they become cross or hungry. Their numbers are thinning, and they are beginning to go extinct under the era of Zaçic.

They are powerful scryers and are able to see far and wide, future and past, and in the future.

Despite their terrifying appearance they are very intelligent and cunning, and have a rich culture. They worship a deity known as Aurelio, ostensibly a snake deity, who is actually a love deity revered and adored by the Sounaga population, dwindling though it may be.

They do not take lifemates, there is no commitment of love to a single creature in their society, and while incest is not necessarily smiled upon by the Sounaga, that does not prevent it from happening startlingly often in an attempt to keep bloodlines pure and to produce offspring of a specific coloring, or other selfish reasons.

Sounaga are hermaphrodite, possessing both sex organs and capable of switching primary gender at will. They are bizarre creatures with loose morals and loyalties only to themselves and their deity. They are ruled in their deities absence by his high priests.

Blue Power Ranger

**The Blue Ranger** joined The Sense of Right Alliance along with the rest of the Power Rangers, but he said he would only join if his role in the Alliance was much larger than the rest of the Rangers. When he joined the Alliance, he received a $15 McDonald's gift card. He used it to buy 60 Chicken McNuggets.

He has also been given the right to wear any other power ranger uniform. While he has worn a variety of suits, he prefers to wear blue suits.

He is a main member.

Commissioner Fontaine

**Portrayed By** | Olivier Rabourdin

**Commissioner Fontaine** is a recurring character to help Rosemary Woodhouse ends up involved in the diabolical schemes set in motion by Castevet within the walls of La Chimere.

## Personality and Appearance

A staid man showing a certain bias towards the Americans, saying they are ignorant in foreign languages, as well as to the police force at his command, that he feels ill-suited to fight crime. During receptions in La Chimere, it has proved prone to jokes and phrases of circumstances suited to the festive atmosphere.

Commissioner Fontaine is a man in his fifties, with brown hair, a square face and a stocky build. Wearing dark and formal style, suited to his role as police superintendent.
Dwarves

Dwarves are exuberant, short and stout, and physically powerful. They look human, and the males have impressively long beards which they braid. They are generally around four feet tall and have a lifespan of roughly 4000 years. They live underground, generally in mountains though also anywhere they can set up mine systems and underground chambers and cities. There are vast underground cities so deep no one realizes they are there. Their skin looks and acts as though it were made from stone or gemstone, so Dwarves have a variety of skintones.

The Dwarves openly share this space with the Gnomes and with any creature who feels safer down there. The Dwarves mine metals, minerals, gemstones and whatever else they can find underground. Some of the minerals and gems they mine are used in alchemical sciences by the Gnomes. The Dwarves are masters of smelting, the art of black-smithy, weapons, jewelry, metal furniture, metallurgy and, of course, of mining, mine carts and the rails they ride on. They also make a variety of alcoholic beverages such as mead and rum and managed, through magics, to set up food and livestock farms in their underground caverns.

They are fiercely loyal and are powerful allies to have, especially in times of war.

Under Construction.
Lupino

Lupino are a race of humanoid wolf people. The Lupino culture is very simple, consisting of Druids (priests), Warriors, Hunters, Foragers (who gather vegetables and herbs), Guardians (who look after the village pups), Builders, and Chefs (who mostly just cut/clean any meat brought by the Hunters and make steamed vegetables or vegetable stews to go with the raw meats).

Lupino are sometimes mistaken for werewolves by ignorant villagers, with their large, muscularly hulking forms. They range in height from six to nine feet tall when fully grown, and are covered in gorgeously soft pelts of fur from head to foot. Their fur colors include black, midnight blue, gray, white, brown, rust and sandy fur tones. They have large, sharp claws and razor sharp carnivores teeth. The average lifespan of a Lupino is unknown, though exceeds 9000 years, longer than any other known races general lifespan.

The Lupino are not actually native to Erve; they originally came through from what they called a “Chalcedony Gateway,” a dimensional portal created by their Druids to escape an apocalypse in their home world where their ranks were thinning as the world was coming to an end.

Lupino are one of the few cultures, aside from Nylian and lower Hundr Buman, where incest is acceptable under certain circumstances (IE. no immediate family, though lesser relations like ones cousins/aunts/uncles/grandparents/etc. are fine). This is thought to be due to the excessively long lifespan of the Lupino.

The Warriors of Lupino Tribes usually give themselves a piercing in the nose to distinguish them as the Warrior class. There's also Hunters, Foragers, Druids, Builders, Chefs and Guardians. Hunters wear necklaces of bones from their kills, Foragers wear green clothing, Chefs have a communal cooking area in the Lupino villages and usually are distinguished by their tied back manes. Druids wear dark robes, Builders have a toolbelt, and Guardians are usually surrounded by Lupino pups all the time, so don't really need a distinguishing mark.

Under Construction.
Chenesta

Chenesta are a race of humanoid felines from the Eg Segycryn and Nylian deserts. They have fur colors ranging from tan and yellow to orange and lighter browns, oranges and reds. Their eyes are generally orange, green, blue or yellow, and shine ethereally in the darkness. Often their tails have a three-pronged tip of a brighter color, green or blue or red. They are generally between five and seven feet tall, with feminine, slender frames and graceful movements. They have a general lifespan of about 5000 years and they are affectionate and often purr deeply when they are around people who's company they very much enjoy, such as lovers or close friends. Because of the desert heat they generally wear light, cool materials to block the sun but allow the breeze through, an effective method of preventing burns on their bodies, due to their short fur, and also to keep them cool where the breeze allows.

Chenesta have no actual culture, but share a common belief that all sentient, intelligent races should be treated as equals and share the planet as such. They stand against Zaçic and all he works toward. They live in a vast system of interconnected underground tunnels and come out primarily to hunt. They are powerfully psychokinetic and use a form of bone divination which is eerily accurate.

Ellen Kushner

Ellen Kushner is an American fantasy writer, and the creator of the world of Riverside. She is married to Delia Sherman. *Swordspoint* was her first novel, published in 1987, though she had previously written short stories set in the same world as well. She has teased upcoming short stories and potential novels in the world of Riverside.

Elves

Elves are a generally peaceful race of people who's only distinguishing differences from humans are their generally taller frames, pointed ears and a system of glyph tattoos marking which families a person is related to.

Elves have a lifespan between 3500 – 5500 years. There are over 200 familial glyphs. Some Elves are limited only to their more recent relatives while others have their familial lineage going back millennia tattooed in a band somewhere on their person.

Elvish cooking is/was revered as some of the most heavenly fare around, and some very fine furniture and craftsmanship exists within the Elvish communities.

Under Construction.
Goblins

Goblins are a smaller troll-like race of creatures which are actually capable of in-depth speech and basic reasoning skills. Like trolls they have no society of which to speak, and no culture. What they do have is a single terrible Goddess known as Krillik, whom they fear absolutely. Goblins are known to be ignorant and rowdy, causing a general ruckus wherever they go and were confined to two places, deep in the darkest reaches of the Sephirôt forest and in the caves of the ByTalna mountains. They are greedy for anything that is shiny and are easily tricked by those of greater intelligence (which is, basically, everyone else except the trolls). Goblins are generally about three feet tall, sometimes more or less, with gross sand-papery skin that is either dark gray or ash white, depending on which region they are from. Goblins don't tend to live more than 500 years, sometimes much less if they happen to cross the wrong creature, making them the second lowest in terms of lifespan with only humans below them.

Trolls

Trolls are/were a race of somewhat mindless humanoid monsters who live much, much farther underground than the Dwarves have dared to actually expand. They were, for a long time, thought to be extinct. With recent attacks within deep-running mine-shafts the Dwarves are insisting they never were extinct but merely in hiding. They are large, hulking creatures ranging between seven to eight feet tall with leathery gray-green skin and powerful muscles and they, as known from the past, run on baser instincts only for their own survival. Their actual lifespan is unknown, as most don't tend to make it past fifty years without being killed by whoever they happen to be attacking, but they can respawn like crazy and do so asexually, often spawning several offspring at a time, and they mature quickly. The last time anybody actually saw them alive in any great number, they were capable of speaking to you but were limited to crass threats and basic things like food, water, hungry and kill. Since no one has had a chance to study them in hundreds of years no one knows what kinds of evolutionary advances they may or may not have made as a race.

Grammy Legend Award

Country
 Presented by
 First awarded

The Grammy Legend Award, or the Grammy Living Legend Award, is a special award of merit given to recording artists by the Grammy Awards, a ceremony that was established in 1958 and originally called the Gramophone Awards. Honors in several categories are presented at the ceremony annually by the National Academy of Recording Arts and Sciences of the United States for outstanding achievements in the music industry.

The first Grammy Legend Awards were issued in 1990 to Andrew Lloyd Webber, Liza Minnelli, Smokey Robinson and Willie Nelson. The honor was inaugurated to recognize "ongoing contributions and influence in the recording field". The next year four more musicians (Aretha Franklin, Billy Joel, Johnny Cash and Quincy Jones) were acknowledged with Grammy Legend Awards. The award was given to Barbra Streisand in 1992 and Michael Jackson in 1993.

After 1994, when the American musicians Curtis Mayfield and Frank Sinatra were both issued Grammy Legend Awards, the honors have been given to recording artists intermittently. Italian operatic tenor Luciano Pavarotti was the 1998 recipient of the award. The following year, British singer-songwriter Elton John was recognized with the honor. The Bee Gees became the first recipients of the award in the 21st century when the brothers were acknowledged by the Grammys in 2003. British–Dutch metal band Epica will receive the award in 2016 after they broke the record for most Grammy wins now set at 34. Overall, fourteen solo musicians and two bands have received the Grammy Legend Award.

The 2016 Grammy Awards ceremony will be held on February 15, 2016, at the Staples Center in Los Angeles, California. The ceremony recognizes the best recordings, compositions and artists of the eligibility year, which is from October 1, 2014, to September 30, 2015. The "pre-telecast" ceremony, officially known as the Premiere Ceremony, in which the majority of awards will be presented, will be held at the nearby Microsoft Theater. It will be the sixteenth Grammy ceremony to be held at the Staples Center, tying the Shrine Auditorium in Los Angeles for hosting the most Grammy ceremonies. It also marks the latest date for a Grammy ceremony since 2003, which were held on February 23.

Unlike previous years, where it was held on a Sunday, the 2016 edition will be held on a Monday for the first time to take advantage of the U.S. Presidents' Day long weekend. The ceremony will be televised in the United States by CBS; for the first time, CBS affiliates in the western half of the country will have the option of broadcasting the Grammys live from the East coast feed, in addition to an encore in local primetime.

Nominations for the 58th Grammy Awards ceremony were announced on December 7, 2015. Kendrick Lamar received the most nominations with 11. For the latter, he went on to pass Eminem as the rapper with the most nominations in a single night, and second overall behind Michael Jackson (12 nominations in 1984). Taylor Swift and The Weeknd received seven nominations each. Producer Max Martin received the most nominations for a non-performing artist, with six. It was announced that British–Dutch metal band Epica will be honoured with the Legend Award after setting a new record of most Grammys won after winning three at the 57th Grammys taking their tally to 34. LL Cool J will host for the fifth straight year. Gwen Stefani's "Make Me Like You" music video will be acted out, filmed and broadcast live during a four-minute Grammys commercial break on CBS.

**CT-7922**, nicknamed "**Flare**," was a clone trooper of the 456th Marvel Legion's famed Valor Squad that joined later on in the war. He participated in the Battle of Trandosha, where he met his demise when the group was trying to make their final escape.
Vincent Applethorpe

Vincent Applethorpe was once one of the best swordsmen in Riverside.

## Background

Vincent first came to Riverside as boy, but disappeared a few years before Season 1 begins. When he returned, he was older and more sober. Riversiders were glad to see him, having assumed he'd died, and some of the more knowledgeable ones had questions when they saw his fighting style. Whether they asked them and whether he answered them is not revealed.

Vincent has a sister who believes that he runs a shop in the City, and he writes to her regularly to maintain this facade.

## During Tremontaine

Vincent becomes Tess’s protector (and roommate) and Kaab’s instructor in swordsmanship after besting Kaab when she agrees to fight all comers on Tess’s behalf to see who will take the role.

Honora

Honora is the daughter of Diane and William. She has two children, Janine and David, which means that she ran off with Raymond Campion when she was 14 or 15, "not even halfway through her own season". She may have more affection for her father than for her mother, given the names of her children. Diane says Honora sometimes behaved "oddly".
CT-7324

**CT-7324**, nicknamed "**Uran**," was a clone trooper of the 456th Marvel Battalion that served under CC-1121. He informed CC-1121 of the news that someone was sabotaging the 456th's supplies on Umbara, and he was also a member of the Iron Gauntlet Strike Team. He died during the Battle of Trandosha.
William Alexander Tielman

William once served as the Duke of Tremontaine before his wife, Diane, became Duchess in her own right.

## Personality

William does not have the political interests or instincts of Diane. He is terrible at any sort of subterfuge. At the start of Season 1, he seems comfortable letting Diane handle Tremontaine's political interests while he has been the public face of the title.

He has followed her advice even when it worried him, as when they mortgaged a vineyard, and found everything working out well. However, there is a lot he does not about what Diane does, including that she has mortgaged Highgate, nor that there is a risk of losing it following the disaster of the Everfair.

While William attends the necessary Council meetings, he is just as interested in his role on the Board of Governors for the University. He is "One of the most meddlesome members of the Board of Governors" at least from Rafe's point of view, and perhaps from others' as well. William loves learning both as a personal hobby and for its potential for societal good.

According to Diane, William "loved deep, and William loved true". She learns that, before their marriage, he had been Asper Lindley's lover before the other man "moved on". It seems likely that William does not realize that she knows this. He tends not to notice things beyond his specific and intense interests, although he is aware that Asper Lindley is now the lover of Nicholas Galing, the Crescent Chancellor.

He regrets the estrangement between his wife and his daughter, Honora. He is in correspondence with Honora and brings the news of the birth of her son to Diane, along with a request for a visit, which Diane refuses, although she does agree that they must send a present.

Bracken

Bracken are a race of creatures similar to faeries, except they have wings like birds and two sets of eyes. They are generally polite, but have little patience and will snap if you do anything they consider to be bothersome, which varies from Bracken to Bracken. They live wherever they like, assimilating into whatever local culture they happen to choose.
Tess Hocking

Tess is a forger whose work often involves low-level criminality, such as forged letters for reference for those seeking employment on the Hill. She used to serve beer at the Three Dogs. While all Riverside residents are effectively squatters, her living arrangements are particularly well put together and are a source of envy. Tess is both well known and liked in Riverside, and cares deeply for her fellow Riversiders as well.

## During Tremontaine

As Season 1 opens, she is living with Ben Hawke. When his body washes up on the banks of the river, Tess is in need of a new protector, one who has a strong sword arm and no expectations of her sexual favors.

Tess catches Kaab's eye from the moment Kaab sees her. While attracted to Kaab, Tess is also proud. She is not always inclined to take a foreigner's advice on how to conduct her business in her own neighborhood, and she has no intention of letting Kaab, or anyone else, take her for granted or condescend to her.
