The Crown & The Flame Miscellaneous Characters

Amanth Drammir
The king of Fydoria, he attends Queen Adriana's banquet for working together with his son Tevan, leaving his daugher Aurynn at home in Fydoria. He and Tevan are introduced to Kenna, although only Tevan appears to actually speak with her. A little later while there he is beheaded by an unknown Nevrakis soldier during the attack on the royals from the five kingdoms gathered there.

Luther Nevrakis calls him, the Thornes, and Queen Kalalei, snakes, scheming behind Queen Adriana's back.

Eloise
One can assume that Eloise grew up alongside her sister Adriana. They presumably remained close even after Adriana married into Stormholt's royal family and later became Queen.

In the loosest of terms, one might call Eloise "promiscuous". This is shown when Adriana mentions that she enjoys going away for long periods with her lovers, and when Luther reveals her "latest lover" was a Nevrakis spy.

Adriana also says that Eloise was fashionable during a conversation with her daughter, Kenna.

Whether Eloise is still alive or not is up for debate. It's mentioned by Luther that she had her eyes gouged out while being interrogated for details about Stormholt Castle's secret passage. This would imply that she most likely died from her interrogation.

Adriana was Eloise's sister. Not much is said about their relationship, but it can be implied that they are close given the fact that Adriana trusted her with the knowledge about Stormholt's secret passage.

As is mentioned, Eloise had a string of lovers, which Adriana attributed to "the joys of not being Queen".

Marcellus Rys
Adriana's husband and Kenna's father. He the King of Stormholt until his death. He is said to have been well respected, and he and his wife were known to be very in love.

Adriana Rys was his wife. They were very in love when he died, and she was so heartbroken that she believed she would never love again. Since their daughter was only a little girl when she died, Queen Adriana became the ruler of Stormholt.

Kenna was his daughter and only child, as well as heiress to the Kingdom of Stormholt. Not much is known about their relationship. Since Kenna was a little girl when he died, it is likely she doesn't remember much about him. What she did remember was that she was holding the hilt of her father's sword while the latter was playing with her.

Not much is known about their relationship, but Gabriel respected King Marcellus very much.

He is unnamed until Book 3, Chapter 2, where in a flashback, Queen Adriana says that her late husband's name was Marcellus.

The name Marcellus is Latin for 'hammer'. It also refers to the Roman god of war, Mars.

Duncan
Duncan is the former weapons master whom Hex replaced when Marco failed to take over Aurelia. Marco and Hex used him as a test subject to show off Hex's cannon that channeled Sei's fire power, effectively executing him for the failure at Aurelia. He insisted that the weapons were his best work, but it didn't matter to Marco.

Ewan and Daphne Thorn and Children
Other than Rowan, their children's names are not known. Rowan, the youngest daughter, was the only one of the family to stay home from the peace talks. The rest of the family was killed along with the other royals who went to the peace talks.

Beltair Nevrakis
Beltair is one of Luther Nevrakis's five children, brother to Diavolos, Marco, Zenobia, and Seoras. He died in the battle against Azura that takes place during Book 2.

Seoras Nevrakis
Seoras is one of Luther Nevrakis's five children, brother to Diavolos, Marco, Zenobia, and Beltair. He died in the battle against Azura that takes place during Book 2.

Duchess Leandra
Princess Zenobia comments to Helene Leventis that Duchess Leandra is so much more fun since her husband died in a "hunting accident." The implications of the comment include the likelihood that Zenobia was involved in the very deliberate death of the unnamed Duke.

Queen Kalalei
When asked why he killed the rulers of the five kingdoms, Luther Nevrakis calls her along with King Amanth and the Thornes snakes, scheming behind Queen Adriana's back. Very little is known about her, but by process of elimination it appears that she was likely the ruler of Ebrimel, where Kailani and Noa Keawe come from.

Azura's Attendant
After Azura restores Mechawolf Pup to life, she shows a distinct weakening of her strength and asks for assistance. A man cheerfully pops up and offers his assistance. At the time, Val assumes she knows "how he's serving her right now." She later feels bad when they realize what Azura does after she kills Leon and realizes that the man was cheerfully volunteering to give his life for Azura, because Azura had trained her people to not only accept that one of them must die for her every single day, but also to be happy and honored to be the one chosen.

His appearance is modeled after Logan Mills, a character in Most Wanted. The hairstyle and clothing style have been altered some to better fit the genre and the time frame.

Claudius Umad III
When Val trains the Fydorian soldiers during her and Raydan's trip there t prepare them for an invasion from Azura, one sticks out above the rest, a spoiled son of a baron named Claudius Umad III. Val challenges him to a dual and can humiliate him to take him down a peg. If Val rallies the Fydoian soldiers during Azura's attack, Claudius will appear later during the battle and after it is over he will arrange to have the Fydorian troops muster arms for Kenna. When they mess it up, he comments about training new recruits.

Fydorian Dancing Soldier
One of the soldiers Val is trying to train is distressed that she isn't getting it right, believing that her mother was right and all she was good for is "dancing at balls and looking pretty." If Val tells her that fighting is basically the same as dancing, she will pracitce with Val and soon get a hit off her.

King of Marossi
He is the King of Marossi from whom Azura took the throne 1000 plus years prior to the series. According to Lia he was unable to answer a riddle Azura told him and gave over his crown. Raydan found a different answer far more likely.

His appearance is shared with Charming, a character in Rules of Engagement. The hairstyle and clothing style have been altered some to better fit the genre and the time frame.

Fire User
A fire user who resisted Azura's take over during her first invasion.

Her appearance is modeled after Dana Beckham, a character in Most Wanted. The clothing style and markings on her face have been altered some to better fit the genre and the time frame. This exact appearance was later used for a "Foreign Woman" in A Courtesan of Rome who has a monkey that the main character of that story can adopt.

Hector Nevrakis
Hector is only seen in a premium scene in chapter 11 when talking to Lia.

About fifty years before the start of the story, Hector was Azura's first visit in the Five Kingdoms for her offer of fealty. He strongly declined, and mentioned that he had already sent a fleet to destroy Marossi, marking the start of a war that would form the main plot for the novel.

Little is known of him, but based on Lia's flashback, Hector is seen as an unwavering and patriotic ruler who refused to surrender Abanthus nor pledge allegiance to Azura. His rather blunt and sarcastic declination eventually led to the decades-long war between Ducitora and the Five Kingdoms.

His look is composed of Bill Holton's previous appearance and parts of Luther’s design.

Diavolos's horse, Hector's Shadow, is named after him.

The name Hector (Εκτωρ) is Greek for 'holding fast'. In Greek legend Hector was one of the Trojan champions who fought the Greeks.

Eda
Eda is a captain in the Nevrakis army. During the retreat back to Stormholt in the beginngs of the final war with Azura, Eda stays behind to make sure her troops make it into the castle safely. She is then locked out of the castle in order to keep Azura's soldiers from getting in.

Everyone agrees that there is no way to save her, even a reluctant Diavolos, but Kenna can choose to go after her and save her. If she does the Nevrakis soldiers gain a lot of respect for Kenna and Eda is impressd with her. Diavolos takes note of this action and it will help influence his actions after the batte is over and his father tries to take Kenna out.

When Zenobia and Adder are trying get Kenna to decide who should rule Abanthus, if Eda survived, Zenobia will pick her at random and ask her who she thinks should rule. Eda looks at the two of them and says, "Nope," followed by her declaration that she's moving to Panrion.
