Without a watch, Ryann would be lost. In one sense he is carefree and loves to joke around, yet he is also very aware of what time of day it is and whether the events of the day are
on schedule. Classmates like him and he’s a natural leader. A strength that can be a weakness is his competitive nature and always wanting to be first at everything.

 

Little Known Fact:

Ryann enjoys watching sports and is thinking about trying out for the basketball team.

drake dunfellow

Drake is the opposite of Liddy—everything in life seems to be going against him. Living with his eerie aunt and backwards uncle after his parents died prematurely in a car accident, Drake has allowed bitterness to take root in his heart. Held back a year in school due to this hardship, Drake isolates himself and lashes out in anger at classmates.

 

Little known fact:
Drake loves the thrill of roller coasters. His three favorites in nearby Orlando are Universal’s Hulk, Sea World’s Kraken, and Disney World Animal Kingdom’s Expedition Everest.

Aeliana Creatures


RAZ

The first creature Ryann meets in Aeliana and his closest friend there. Raz is characterized by his wise advice and his knowledge of the Word. Typical of raccoons, he can be chatty and fast-paced in his speech.


ESSY

Esselyt or “Essy,” as she is known, is the second creature Ryann meets in Aeliana. A leopard with a quick wit, Essy is not shy to make jokes. She bonds quickly with Liddy and the two form a special friendship.


GRIFFIN

Griffin is the red fox who is part of the High Counsel of Myrradin. Regal and proud, Griffin also appears to be a battle-tested warrior due to his shortened tail which is bluntly chopped off at the end. Griffin is appointed by Chancellor Aodan to travel with Ryann, Liddy, Terell, Raz and Essy, and find the sword.
