Alriai "Alri" Aborin (Phoenix Dawn): The Ankaa's pilot. The only person on the crew that doens't know everyone else before the mission begins. A bit of a romantic, but tries not to let it get in the way of her common sense.

Arianna (Phoenix Dawn): Mysterious child-figure that folows Delwyn around, occassionally tossing out ideas, but mostly there to give him someone to talk to.

Aris Darenka (Phoenix Dawn): Riki's little sister and Stowaway #1. This wasn't her idea at all, and she just knew it would get them in trouble.

Bree (Blue Rose): Not quite a talking horse, unless you count telepathy. A psychic adept, healer, herbalist, and Shay's source of horse sense.

Lord Delwyn Hywel (Phoenix Dawn): Ruler of Hinoiri. Smart, ambitious, and charismatic -- very dangerous combination. Currently has mysterious plans to do something that requires three children. Our Heroes have a feeling this is nothing good.

Elise Connor (Phoenix Dawn): She begs the question, what is a human doing in a universe where they never evolved? Apparently fortune telling and being mysterious.

Kai Shoresprite (Phoenix Dawn): The native guide the crew meets on Hinode. He's only a foot tall (and not technically a he) but both his intellect and ego are massive.

General Faris Kimiko al Fahd (Phoenix Dawn): Delwyn's subordinate, one of two sent to keep Our Heroes from stopping Delwyn. Clever, competent and a master of disguise.

Keeper Melisan Lastin (Blue Rose): A Jarzoni Priest on the up-and-up. Dabbles in arcana, history and languages, and has a gift for finding and keeping secrets -- including his own.

Melody (Phoenix Dawn): The Ankaa's comm tech and impromptu social sciencist. Is a rather sarcastic half-alien childhood friend of Riki.

Miklin D'lani (Phoenix Dawn): Stowaway #3. HE knew this was a bad idea, but went along with it because he was bored.

General Philandre Murchadh (Phoenix Dawn): Delwyn's subordinate, one of two sent to keep Our Heroes from stopping Delwyn. Seemingly happy-go-lucky, he is one to watch, simply because one really shouldn't trust anyone who doesn't stop smiling.

Phillee (Phoenix Dawn): The Ankaa's captain, doctor, life-science person and self-appointed morale officer. Is the oldest member of the crew -- and also Melody's adoptive mother -- but doesn't always act like it.

Ravi Falk (Phoenix Dawn): A rather unusual looking Merfolk, but he seems nice enough.

Rikayo "Riki" Darenka (Phoenix Dawn): The Ankaa's engineer and quite possibly the most naive man alien person in the galaxy. Is the hero, by virtue of the fact one of the stowaways is his kid sister and his parents will go apeshit if he doesn't come back without her.

Saria Terrence (Phoenix Dawn): Stowaway #2. Oops -- even if this was her idea, she hadn't intended for it to happen. It was an accident, honest.

Shashi Matsushita (Phoenix Dawn): Delwyn's personal gate mage. Quiet and mysterious, he doesn't usually say what he's thinking. Which is probably for the best, as usually he is thinking about how stupid everyone else is -- he IS a teenager.

Shay (Blue Rose): A young Knight of the Blue Rose. Has a decent head on his shoulder, for being a hopeless do-gooder.
