Michel is an exceptionally talented artist, responsible for creating some of the most beautiful sculptures Eos had ever seen. Determined to see what the Gift had in store for him, he underwent a painful Attunement Ritual, one that almost claimed his life. After two days of pain and suffering, he reemerged, creating a true colossus of a sculpture in record time. But something extraordinary happened upon its completion: the sculpture came to life. Michel then finally realized what the Gift had in store for him: the task to save his beautiful homeland, and the people who had appreciated and loved his work throughout his entire life.

Florence was born to the powerful elites of Bainbridge; she spent years preparing for the Attunement, but when the time came, nothing happened. She started to believe that she wasn’t worthy of the blessing the Crystals provided. Rejected by her own, she took refuge and started living and working with the common working class. Until a terrible accident in a major factory saw Florence helping to carry the victims away. As she worked, she started noticing a yellow energy emanating from her hands, leading right into the wounded, healing those that it touched. Thus, she finally found out that her blessing was always inside her: the ability to heal and save other people.

Tomoe was born in the fishermen's village of Awazu, located on the westernmost island of Digyu. A happy childhood was abruptly interrupted by a mysterious tsunami that destroyed her village, killing her parents. After miraculously surviving, the young girl found her way to the Imperial City, where her Gift was discovered. Attuned to the Crystals, she quickly developed incredible swordsmanship and archery skills, which led the Empress of Digyu to be personally invested in her training. Tomoe’s short stature, youthful appearance, and polite demeanor manage to hide the young woman's true identity: a lethal assassin who strikes fear in all enemies of Digyu.

Selena always loved to fight, though it started with her words, and not her sword. Her skills with the spoken word were demonstrated time after time during the World’s Fair, where she won the flyting competition for 3 years in a row. After her mother’s passing, she embarked on a great hunt in the caves far to the north to pledge herself worthy of clan leadership. The journey ended with her attuning to a Crystal - which altered her poetry forever. Her sagas have the power to drain the lifeforce of her enemies, making her stronger and more powerful. Reshaping her clan into Clan Crimson, her leadership keeps The Hálsful’s poets singing ballads in her honor.

Birbal is the Shah’s right hand, best friend and confidant. From humble beginnings, he was instrumental in re-creating an Empire that hadn't existed for centuries. His quick wit and knowledge to deploy new weapons as well as his strength and courage in the battlefield helped shape the fate of the Reunification. His attunement gave him a special bond with fire, and with it he created his signature weapon: a flamethrower to unleash hell on his enemies. Many a victory has been won from Birbal’s famed strategic feints, and he remains one of the most feared and respected military tacticians in Aurora.

Akila has always been a polarizing voice in the scientific community of Aurora. Recklessly circumventing Khufuian law, Akila hacked into Khufu’s highly classified databases just to test her skills when she was 13. Her attunement in the years following only enhanced her intellectual prowess but further greyed her moralities. Now a decade later, Akila’s groundbreaking research into UAS tech and magnetism have produced Osiris - a pyramid shaped drone that floats around her magnetic glove. Her genius is undoubtable, but many question the motivation behind creating such a powerful weapon.
