NPCs

People

• Ailal Takovenga: AKA Sister Hush. Warden - caretaker of Nemnosti's grounds and nearby areas, the person to go to if something is broken or amiss at the ulajeta. She is a descendant of your dimirabas Fezef so you have a friendly relationship with her from that connection.
• Bache Tokanai: Usually called Cascade, they are a robber / brigand in the Pardopasu who sometimes cause grief, but you and the other stoneguards have a deal with them and their followers, and they even sometimes can provide useful information about what's going on outside the vicinity of the cloister.
• Dadim Nemni: AKA Dumpling or Zhinozh. Zurusha's younger brother, runs a tavern called the Coathook in Naftusa where acolytes and locals often hang out. A good source of information, a friendly guy and of course you have a family connection.
• Detevus Nemni: AKA The Coma or Ashas. The senior active stoneguard at Nemnosti but not the most powerful, usually has the privilege of guarding the Inner Caves. Cousin of the hengi and his family, more distant from Zurusha's branch. No-nonsense, somewhat sullen fellow.
• Ganu Vabaseli: Your lineage's hengi, since about a year ago, still fresh in his job. His father and yours were close friends, but Ganu went to school in Onighus while you were an acolyte, and he's a bit older than you and used to hang with his friends at Gil Pirtu when you were small.
• Ghegra Honogh: You usually would call her Khuz - you were acolytes together along with Zurusha. She is the new hengi of her lineage in Hertu, but is spending more time at Nemnosti, visiting Ancestors, training in weapons (with you and others), and seeking a husband.
• Ghorgimbe Sortusai: AKA Braidworthy or Jazra. Noblewoman-turned-acolyte who chose the life of a stoneguard, in charge of weapons training for acolytes and adults at the ulajeta, and has been your teacher for 15+ years. Passionately loyal to Nemnu and the cloister. Knows every battle site and military event in the region's history.
• Heru Gargimnai: Your mom - call her Black Kidney at your peril! Doesn't talk about her executed parents much, but you know she believes in upending the social class system. You definitely get your size/strength from her. Lives in Zhustir, been a while since you've seen her.
• Irdomila Nemni: Your daughter, extremely bright, inquisitive, and compassionate, just like her mom. About to start acolyte training, with an aim to become a mystic - you have mixed feelings about that, perhaps. Very protective of her brother Rugu.
• Jonte Gorga: AKA The Muzzle. Jonte is groom / Master of Horse and anything to do with the stables. Around your age, but wasn't an acolyte - you mainly know her through her older brother, your friend Legonosh.
• Junu Arfendazi: AKA Quellstorm and Jagu - you could call him either. Acolyte about a year ahead of you, now one of the country's finest sculptors. Smartest person you know who isn't a mystic, full of clever jokes and keen observations. A good friend.
• Legonosh Gorga: AKA The Hoof, Kefun. Was an acolyte just before you, a bit of a bully back then, now in charge of discipline of acolytes. Never had the theological inclination to become a stoneguard, has an enormous booming voice. Loves rock and wall climbing with you and others. Going grey early, but just as strong as ever, or moreso.
• Mutur Vabaseli: Your dad. Spends most of his time talking about the state of his fields, his lineage, of which he's very proud, and his two kids, you and your sister Shosti.
• Naka Igriz: Your mother-in-law, only ever Naka to you. You have a common bond in that you both married into the Nemni. Wants Irdomila to become her successor as herbalist at the ulajeta. Has an acerbic wit, but is actually a super kindly generous person.
• Nezel Varokhi: Sentinel based in Naftusa, captain of the garrison there. Sometimes has joint operations with Nemnosti, but more often, quarrels over jurisdiction and getting in each others' way. Not a fan of the ulajeta's independent streak.
• Rembes Kaisastelovis: Sentinel, great military hero of the nobility "The Lion", now hengi of his lineage. Had a role in putting down the rebellion of Ekrakosh and other military actions in the area. Very involved in politics, including at the ulajeta.
• Rubo Keronaf: AKA Trundles or Aikesh; you would call him either of these, or Rubo in mixed company. Your ally and good friend, kind of a big brother. VERY big. Super friendly, beloved of the stoneguards at the ulajeta. Comes from a poor country lineage from Hertu; married to a Ravre woman who lives up the hill in Akapa Sogo.
• Rugu Nemni: Your son. Definitely struggling hard with his mom's condition, has been prone to tearful outbursts but really normally a quiet kid, very cautious with his life and yours.
• Sakasa Nemni: AKA Vivid-red / Viv / Vinda. Envoy for the ulajeta, a distant cousin of Zurusha, a couple years older than you. Long-time friend of you and Zurusha. Single since her divorce, there has been talk among the Nemni about you and her as a kind of partnership, but she does NOT seem interested in attachments.
• Shosti Vabaseli: AKA Burnbean / Bean, which you often call her. Your sister, somewhat of a loud and overbearing temperament, and strong of opinions. You get along fine, with the usual range of annoyances, and you really do wish her well with this latest marriage prospect.
• Tamandu Sempi: AKA Pavavi; few still living call him that. Former Hulti, convert and now one of the most loyal acolytes. You rely on him when you need to pull magic arms and armor from Nemnu's vast repository. Family in Zhustir knows yours well.
• Zaren Nemni: AKA Zesty and Ronu. Your father-in-law, father of Zurusha, Ifa, Izu, Dadim. A retired stoneguard after a serious injury more than a decade ago. Proud of his family and very proud of you. Fond of a friendly conversation about weapons and a nice warm beska beer.

Revenants

• Aru Ninderulai: You normally call them by their dimir, Sadal. Your familiar relationship was shaped by their father Medimur being your dimirabas, establishing a familiarity with someone different in profession and generation. Their relationship to the Hand and the Corps is very complicated by their personal history. Always seems a bit sad.
• Bem Pekai: Usually just Bem, but Lozla in in informal settings. Was an acolyte after you and you helped train her. You still train together now that she's a stoneguard. When she died and was revived just a year or so after Zurusha, that was a lot to deal with. Very sensitive about the whole Hulti / family thing.
• Zurusha Nemni: Your wife, your love. Lamna when you first met; Geme is what you called her as acolytes, and still often do; Zurusha still feels hard on your tongue and Whimsy no longer fits as it once did. Your interaction with her now is all at a distance, by letters mainly, which you write back and forth all the time. She seems happy to still be able to serve at Nemnosti as a bookbinder, but especially sad about the children.

Ancestors

• Fezef Takovenga: There are lots of people who are very jealous (bitter?) that he is your dimirabas. But you get it - the loyalty, the intimidation, the massive 25-foot statue that you salute every day. At first, talking to him was just as intimidating as the statue, but no longer. A Ravre from the high hills, not really 'civilized' but exceptionally proud.
• Medimur Ninderulai: Your dimirabas, after whom you were named by the Lady. Like you, a soldier who married into the Nemni, but comes from the nobility. He wants to know how his family and lineage are doing, which is a tough conversation every single time.

Special Notes

• The Vabaseli family farmlands abut the mighty ruins of Gil Pirtu, the fort that defended the province during the two Khutu-Taizian wars centuries ago. Though now abandoned, you and others from Zhustir would play around there as kids a lot, so you know it intimately. You still have an old Omban silver coin that you found in there once. There are still parts that aren't fully explored and one time, a local kid, Vor Cheskai, got lost in there and was never found.
• You never knew your mom's family much, and she doesn't talk about them. But you have a strong memory from when you were about nine, of a (then) visiting young man who your mom called Molar, who seemed kind of like a relation, and they were talking about something called Moot. When you asked about it you were sharply scolded, which solidified the memory even further.
• You have a passing familiarity with the Register of Patrols, a long series of books going back centuries of the activities of the stoneguards at Nemnosti. While you are no scholar, and some of these old records are full of strange handwriting and abbreviations, you know there is a vast repository of knowledge of the everyday and the unusual in there.
• The stoneguards of Nemnosti have a centuries-long tradition, of course, which includes a well-known motto "Until Feet Fail". Lesser-known (though not quite a secret) is a shared codeword, 'fervent(ly)' - when a stoneguard uses that word in a sentence it is meant to alert other stoneguards that something is amiss and to be highly alert.
