NPCS

CANON CHARACTERS

These may be mentioned in the story, but with some exceptions are not playable.

Helena Walker/HLN-4: @hln-4

A Paleontologist hailing from Darwin, Australia from 2008 CE, Helena diligently recorded the nature of every creature in her dossiers. She is known to be cheerful, creative, and respectful of others despite their power dynamics– and for her color use of swearing. At times she can come off as a bit of an idealistic person, or have her natural curiosity overcome proper social norms-- making her a bit awkward and unintentionally rude at times. She is the first Survivor to become Homo Deus; and the "Guardian Spirit" to the Stargazers. HLN-A is the fractal drone-like companion created by Homo Deus Helena to guide Stargazer in the Genesis Ship.

Edmund Rockwell

A chemist from Victorian era United Kingdom. He is known outwardly to be a gentleman scholar to his fellow survivors and often acted as a mediator and later a leader to a neutral tribe. He also collected a wealth of information about the flora and fauna, and the man responsible for creating the medicines used among the tribes. However, beneath the façade, he is prone to being self-centered, needing to be superior, and one of the most cunning manipulators on the Island, playing the other three against each other. Rockwell is the eventual main antagonist of the story. If anyone does want to write him, I'll allow it.

Li Mei Yin

Born in the late 100s CE in China, Mei Yin was raised with her brother Han by their grandfather during the Yellow Turban Rebellion. A capable warrior, she brought many victories to the rebels. She died in a flurry of arrows trying to assassinate the Emperor. On the Island, she was known as "The Beast Queen", a fearsome warrior and constant foe of Nerva.

Gaius Marcellus Nerva

A Centurion from 100s AD Rome. From the province of Numidia, Nerva served his empire in the conquest of Dacia. He died on the battlefield, only to wake up on the Island. He is a disciplined, military man with a sense of superiority to rival Rockwell (both coming from Imperialist backgrounds it’s not a surprise). He dreams of conquering the Island and creating a Pax Arca-- with himself at the lead as Imperator. He is killed by Mei-Yin at the battle of the Tek Cave along with the rest of his tribe, leading to the current state of affairs the Island is in today.

TO BE ADDED AS THE STORY PROGRESSES.

[triviacrossing]

In New Horizons, if the game can't load an NPC due to their referenced model name being invalid, or for other reasons, the game will instead load a naked, unnamed Bob in their place as a failsafe. This was likely a dummy NPC used for testing reasons.

NPCS

THE ISLAND:

Rashid Izad Ibn Abdullah

Rashid was born in Baghdad in the late 700s CE. When he came of age, he would serve Harun al-Rashid as a scholar or many things, proving to be a bit of a polymath himself. Rashid’s last memories before arriving on the Island was traveling on a diplomatic mission to Frankish court of Charlemange-- and beset upon by raiders. He provides wisdom to the Stargazers. Preferred Tames: Layla, a female Argentavis, and Nadim, and a male Mesopithecus often found on his shoulder.

Altanyn Tuya

Tuya is a trained equestrian and competitive sharpshooter from Altai, Mongolia in the in 2020s. She is skilled with a rifle and the traditional Mongolian bow, often showing off on horseback. She is dedicated to preserving her people’s culture, but also embraces the future. Tuya also had a relatively sized social media following as well, posting videos of her tricks on and off horseback. Tuya studied abroad briefly in the UK, but then returned home to Ulanbaatar to continue her studies. She thought about history, but turned around and went more or a veterinary route. Tuya unfortunately was struck down by a driver before she could finish her studies. She is Stargazer's Stablemistress. Preferred Tames: Khulun, a female Equus, and Naran, a female Microraptor.

Oberführer Otto Eirich

The Leader of the Sonnenrad. In his former life, Oberführer Otto Eirich of the Schutzstaffel-Totenkopfverbände was commandant of some of the satellite labor camps during Nazi-controlled Europe. Dedicated to the cause, Otto was the exemplar of the Master Race in looks and ideals. He was responsible for the deaths of thousands before his own death during a camp revolt. After coming across the ruins of the New Legion and Rockwell’s later research, Otto has become obsessed with unlocking and overcoming the ARK and creating the Island as an Aryan paradise. Otto thinks very little of his fellow tribal leaders; with a strange sort of admiration-hate relationship regarding the Howling Wolves-- as Sigrid is part of his revered Aryan ancestors, but she refuses to ally with him. Preferred Tames: Jaeger, a raptor, and Alruna, a hyaenodon.

Forgemaster Zenshiro Hankei,

Leader of Iron Brotherhood. A prudent, and shrewd leader and skilled smith. In his previous life, he was a sword and gun smith from the Hankei family living during the Tokugawa Shogunate (Late 1500s/Early 1600s Japan) Preferred Tames: Iwa, a male Ankylosaur, and Yorume, a male Troodon.

Shieldmaiden Sigrid Sigurdsdottir

Sigrid was born at the start of the Viking Age to Jarl Sigurd Einarson, and in time became a Shieldmaiden fighting alongside her father when she came of age. Sigrid would inherit his lands after his death and become a fearsome raider raiding the English coast as the Norse expanded south. A competent and prudent warrior, she was not against learning and adapting her tactics from the Celts and Anglo-Saxons she was facing. She was killed in battle and expected to be greeted by the gods in Valhalla. Instead she found herself in the tundra naked and alone, with only her drive to survive. With her intelligence and determination she took command of the Tundra and the Howling Wolves from its previous leaders and has been leading the tribe since. Preferred Tames: Loki and Sigyn, a mated pair of Dire Wolves.

Edward Warden

Edward was a Warden for one of the Royal Forests during the end of the reign of Henry I (1100s England) and lived during the Anarchy– having been killed during the conflict between the Empress Matilda and Stephen of Blois. A simple, but shrewd man, he replaced the previous leader after they died in a raid. He has a grudging respect for both the Howling Wolves and the Stargazers, and has since slowly shed his misogynistic notion of women of his time since arriving to the Island. Despite his lack of technical know-how, he has proven to be a consumate survivor in the Jungles of their territories. Preferred Tames: Gwen, a female Gallimimus, Odo, a male Ichthyornis

Reed Abbot

Reed was just a regular bloke from the late 1990s Australia. Jack of all trades, master of some. A sort of nomadic handyman and, and farmhand, following where the money went in Slide-On, with his best mate, a black lab named Missy. It wasn’t the most lavish of lives, but he appreciated the freedom it gave him. A knowledgeable outdoors-man, Reed could make do in the wide wild lands in between towns. Reed’s end was through an unfortunate downing trying to save his employer’s sheep. Waking up to paradise, he though he’d reached Heaven. At least until the Dilophosaurs showed up. Making his way inland, he would find himself joining the Red Hawks tribe. As a simple man with no serious ambitions, the Eyrie hasn’t been considered part of the great tribes, but in their limited ambition have also survived. Preferred Tames: Drongo, a male Dodo, and Baz, a male Argentavis

Warlord Bane

Leader and " Warlord" of the Raider Laughing Skulls tribe. No one knows when or where Bane has come from, or who he was, and he has not divulged any of that information to anyone. It is possible he was incarcerated at some point, and part of some sort of gang, or even possibly a serial killer given his penchant for violence and chaos. A hedonist, he only really cares for sate his needs at the moment, the Skulls living their existence in the here and now, taking what they can get. Preferred Tames: Ravage, a male Carnotuaurus, and Mayhem, a male Pegomastax
