This list of NPCs is for the use of anyone looking to add a little more substance to their posts, or who are interested in getting to know some of the "background" or lore characters of our Court! If interest for more or different types of NPCs come up, this list might expand so feel free to check back, and we hope you enjoy!

Court NPCs

Sullivan - Sullivan is the head steward of Denocte’s citadel. He manages all the castle’s employees, looks after the property, and supervises all on-locale events. Sullivan is stern, calm but friendly and takes his duties seriously. Having seen the come and go of more than one sovereign, Sullivan is often more concerned for the state of the Night Court’s affairs than he lets on, and is incredibly loyal to his kingdom, and more than willing to give advice to those who are seeking it. He is an older male 10 years of age, a blue roan with violet eyes and a voice like distant thunder.

Aubin - One of many young pages of the Night Court, Aubin is easily awed, eager to please others, and prove himself to those in charge. His main duties are to deliver messages locally within the court and to call upon anyone who the Regime seeks to speak with at the castle. He’s often seen squeezing through the crowds with a look of determination in his morning blue-green eyes, but is easily overlooked despite his vigor. Aubin is a cremello, roughly 1 year of age.

Isla - Isla is delicate and beautiful, but bright and full of life. Too good to be working as a servant, many might say when they first lay eyes upon her and speak to her. What those many don’t know, however, is that Isla chose to become a kitchen maid, secretly hoping to apprentice under the castle’s cook. She has a true love for food and sharing it with everyone that she cares about. A young 3 years of age, pale strawberry roan sabino pegasus with light golden eyes and a smile for every occasion.

Rhys - With a heart as big as his appetite, Rhys can be quite the unapologetic flirt and is very good at expressing himself through his cooking. Respectfully (and affectionately) called simply “Chef” by those who work closely with him, he is the head of a well-run but close-knit kitchen, who treat food not just like a necessity but like an art form. In his down time, Rhys is often experimenting with new dishes and flavor profiles to add to his menu. A bold mahogany bay draft with gunmetal grey eyes, he has quite the hearty sense of humor to go with his size.


Market NPCs

Halwyn - Homemade by Halwyn is a humble but often bustling shop located within Denocte’s market. The shop has an ordering window which opens directly onto the street, making it easy for passersby to get whatever they want on the go. Halwyn, the shop’s namesake, is a talented baker who offers a number of goods always made fresh. Though his specialty is breads—rye, grain, seeded and more—the signature item of his shop are his rolls. A simple white bread with a little touch of sweetness, and the personal favorite of the Sovereign. Halwyn is a baroque sooty bay with a bald face and crystalline blue eyes, 8 years of age.

Anisette - Even though Anisette might be one of the youngest merchants selling at the market, it’s no secret that her pastries, pies and other desserts are some of the best. Her stall is rarely seen without patrons drooling over her offerings, or buying more than their fair share of sugary goodies. When asked, she tells everyone the same. Every recipe is a family one, passed down for generations as long as she can remember. She says she hasn’t changed a thing, except maybe added a little extra TLC to each one. 4 years old, Anisette is a sunny gold champagne welsh pony with verdant green eyes.

Velia - Velia boasts a wide array of goods that, upon first glance, might seem neither cohesive nor all that special. In fact, unless you are specifically looking for Velia’s stand in the market, it’s incredibly easy to walk on by. If you are, however, and you happen to glance at that statuette that would look good on your mantle or that pin in your hair, that’s when Velia will lean in a little closer and whisper to you. They’re all weapons. She’ll tell you there’s a knife in the handle of the comb you just put down, and even pull it apart just to show you. Velia, unicorn pale as the moon with eyes innocent as freshly bloomed lavender, selling all those secrets.


Docks NPCs

Ramiel & Aella - Twin hippocampus divers and activists, these two can almost always be found roaming Denocte’s port or shores. Keeping the beaches and oceans clean is their ultimate goal, and you just might find them trading anything they’ve come across that isn’t garbage. Together they make for a determined and hard-working pair, though they manage to have a lot of fun along the way. Ramiel is the first-born twin, a stone grey dapple with seaweed green eyes and a mischievous smirk. Aella is a few shades lighter than her brother, eyes like a stormy sea, eyes that are always seeing. Both of the twins have beautiful, elegant looking fins, in and out of the water, though they lose their hippocampus tails in the transformation.

Bastian - Bastian is a grizzled old sailor that has faced off many an angry sea in his time captaining ships. Take a moment to chat with him and he’ll tell you that in his younger days he was a rebellious stallion with a fearless streak, and briefly left Novus to become a Cabin Boy on a pirate ship, where he learned to become a skilled swordsman and talented mariner. After years on the ocean, he is now the captain of a successful trade ship. Bastian is a bold and bright chestnut overo with copper eyes and a scattering of scars—a particularly notable one stretches across his chest, as if from a fight.


Other NPCs

Aisling House - “Dream House”; An exclusive society and business often whispered about on the lips of seedier individuals, Aisling House is one of Denocte’s most lucrative black market organizations, and perhaps its best kept secret. “They sell tea,” says the questionable equine at the end of a darkened alley, and you might think to yourself, tea? Oh, but this is not just any tea. The concoction marketed by Aisling House is so much more than a normal tea, and so much more insidious. The teas you’ll buy from this establishment will put anyone who drinks one to sleep, and fill their sleep with fantastical dreams. However, it also leaves them in an almost hypnotic state. Open to suggestion, if you will. This begs the question, are the dreams just dreams, or are they a reflection of something else, something real?

Cu’Madóir - Commonly called The Composer by those who don't know them (which is most everyone), very few have ever even seen this mysterious equine. What little is known of them, this much has spread like the most invasive of plants: The Composer is responsible for making the unique blend that has come to simply be named Dream Tea. Many also claim that The Composer is a brilliant mage, skilled at Potioncraft, which is what gives the tea its incredible and inimical abilities. Whoever they are, they’re very good at disguising themselves among the rest of Denocte’s citizens while making a veritable fortune off of their product, to the right buyers.

Fleet - While it may not be his real name, Fleet is your most reliable source for anything related to Denocte’s blackmarket, for a little recompense of course. Looking for a place to sell that item you may not have gotten through the most honorable means? On the hunt for rare animals, plants or herbs with questionable uses, monarchical jewels and regalia? Fleet can tell you where you need to go and look the other way when you leave, as long as you leave a little coin with him. Fleet’s clearly middle aged, though he’s faster than he looks and smarter than he seems; a dark coated, sparse snowflake appaloosa with mahogany eyes.
