Queen Guinevere Arenthon nee Roquellard
Queen Guinevere comes from the House Roquellard of Levagues. Her marriage to King Rommald was planned when they were both infants. The queen is a person with a dove-like heart, engaging in various charitable activities, particularly towards children. However, due to her husband's lifestyle, she does not have a good relationship with him. She spends the majority of her time in Cadena.
Being a talented mage, she graduated from the Arcane University of Arvis with a master's degree in the School of Illusion.
Jerdan Thorne
Black sheep of the family. Born as Jerdain Roquellard, the youngest child of the influential House Roquellard, he had always shown a deep affinity for nature, a stark contrast to his family's values centered around progress and inventions. Sent to the Levagues Mage's Enclave for a formal arcane education, Jerdain found himself increasingly alienated, leading him to abandon the enclave and flee to the forests of western Antadon. There, a life-altering encounter with a pack of wolves led him to a druid grove where he embraced his true calling as a druid of his druidic circle, vowing to protect Lurra's ecosystems. Upon hearing of his new path, his family disowned him, leading Jerdain Roquellard to become Jerdan Thorne, a protector of nature, wielding his yew wand as a druidic focus.
