NEMESIS (F, Age: 20-50) Nemesis is a goddess whose sole responsibility is to bring vengeance upon all those who act with hubris or greed before the gods.

Can she deliver the prideful all that they are due?

ARIMANES (M, Age: 30-60) Arimanes is the personification of evil in the whole cosmos. His form is human-like, but don't be fooled. His skills of deception and enticement are unmatched, and his trail often remains invisible. He is a busy god, for evil never rests.

HERMAN (M, Age: 20-30) Herman is a servant in Count Manfred's castle. Young and curious not only about his master, he fixates on being the best servant he can be. Unfortunately, he works alongside a fellow with a bitter temperament and is thrust into a whirlwind of conflict surrounding his master.

MANUEL (M, Age: 50-70) Manuel is a servant in Count Manfred's castle, first serving Count Sigismund, Count Manfred's father.

Will his bitterness and golden age fixation manifest any change at the castle?

DEMON (M/F, Age: 20-50) The Demon is a malevolent, supernatural manifestation of Hell. Its sole mission is to bring malicious death upon the cursed. It is an invisible entity to the righteous and pure, but a visible, haunting nightmare to the crooked, vulnerable, and broken. Will it properly serve the forces of evil and drag the damned to tragic ends when their time comes?

FIRST SPIRIT OF NATURE (*VOICE-OVER*, M/F, Age: 20-60) The First Spirit of Nature is the supernatural manifestation of the Star. This celestial being is the voice for the Seven Spirits of Nature.
