Endercrest Academy

This character is one of the five lead characters. She's 16 at the time, with an almost "light" voice. She has some personal issues to deal with, including having witnessed her entire family's deaths a year prior, so she's extremely close to her friend Rosalie Elliott, or Rosie. She befriends a young man only known as PBJ, and

Benjamin Jacobson is a rather crass young Black man with mother issues, and befriends a young woman known only as Cloudy. He's very tenacious, and ends up being one of the four most powerful magic users in the world-but without much control over his power, prompting Phoenix and Haeasynthia, the Headmaster and Headmistress, to pair him up with Joy, much to their chagrin (and eventual resignation).

Rosalie, referred to as "Rosie" in universe by her friends, is a bubbly young woman, best friends with Joy, they've gone through a lot together. She's more of a supporting character at this time, but her character is intended to get an entire storyline focused on her later.

This role is the main villain's second phase in the entire saga, of which this is the ending. After the Null escapes in the Prologue, he corrupts the soul of Cassandra Jacobson, Benjamin's mother. He, or should I say, they, then stay more in the background, only resurfacing over the next nine months as the characters progress in their abilities to remind them that they're gonna be coming for them. They're finally defeated when Joy throws the Null's body into the glass sphere that had once contained him, separating him from Cassandra. Unlike in the previous story, when the Null's avatar repents once the Null leaves, Cassandra rejects Benjamin, curses at him, and says she wishes he was dead, before dying herself.

Bardon Kale is the best friend of Benjamin Jacobson, is ever ready for a quip, yet remains calm in dire situations.

This character is a goddess in the body of an 18-year-old Latina girl. She intersperses sage motherly advice with teasing more suited for her apparent age, really setting her up as the most unusual character in the series. She also has an unexplained attachment to Joy, so much so that Joy becomes known as "The Unkillable Girl" just because of Irene's meddling.

Josiah Aquila is a minor character, mostly a teacher/admin. He's in charge of admissions. The main contribution he makes to the series is in being Siena's husband, and is mostly there for marriage wisecracks.
