Leofric "The Maimed" of Arus<span style="color:rgb(17,17,17);font-family:verdana,sans-serif;font-size:small;line-height:16.899999618530273px;"> - Danish knight who inexplicably wound up fighting in the Massacre at Béziers during the opening of the Albigensian Crusade. Was saved from a fire in the city by Bonhomme Bertranz. Leofric later sheltered Bertranz and other Cathars at Mont-Mercure. Haunted by his past and unwilling to accept the presence of Knights Hospitallers so close to Mont-Mercure, Leofric became the consort of the White Lady. He aged rapidly and died only a few years later, leaving behind their daughter, Magdalene.

Nameless Grog<span style="color:rgb(17,17,17);font-family:verdana,sans-serif;font-size:small;line-height:16.899999618530273px;"> - Died falling to his death in the first layer/form of the covenant's magical regio.

Pepin <span style="color:rgb(17,17,17);font-family:verdana,sans-serif;font-size:small;line-height:16.899999618530273px;">- De facto leader of the turb when Faramond was not around. Fat and garrulous. Died fighting against the dragon/Muspelli wizard Haemir aka Eric.

The White Lady aka Undine<span style="color:rgb(17,17,17);font-family:verdana,sans-serif;font-size:small;line-height:16.899999618530273px;"> - Queen of the odd faerie regio near Mont-Mercure. Powerful and bold, the White Lady demanded the covenant provide her with a "consort". In exchange, she kept the river flowing and provided a source of vis for the covenant. During a period of relative weakness, she was preyed upon by the rogue maga Adiega of Merinita, who drained the White Lady into non-existence through an ancient ritual. Her death marked the collapse of the faerie regio and the diminishment of Mont-Mercure's magical aura.

Yves LeVert<span style="color:rgb(17,17,17);font-family:verdana,sans-serif;font-size:small;line-height:16.899999618530273px;"> - Carousing knightly companion of Laetitia of Guernicus. Fond of Leona. Was mentally dominated by Adiega of Merinita and forced to attack his comrades, killing the soldiers and wounding Laetitia. Adiega later commanded Yves to slit his own throat.

Not-So Dearly Departed
Adiega of Merinita<span style="color:rgb(17,17,17);font-family:verdana,sans-serif;font-size:small;line-height:16.899999618530273px;"> - Powerful maga who sought to cheat death and reverse her rapid aging by preying on faerie monarchs. Framed Noctua Alba Bjornaer for her "death" and went on a rampage across Normandy. Slew several faerie monarchs and countless faeries in her rampage. Assaulted Laetitia of Guernicus, Burgundy's quaesitor, and killed her companions and grogs. Killed all of the faeries of Mont-Mercure, including the White Lady, before Faramond smashed her reforming "egg" apart, slaying the nascent reborn forms of her and stag familiar, Velox. She had two main accomplices that the magi detained: Benci (a half-giant) and Morigenos of Mercere. After Adiega's death, the covenant received most of her remaining property. Her "egg" form returned to Confluensis with Laetitia.

Brother Gilbert<span style="color:rgb(17,17,17);font-family:verdana,sans-serif;font-size:small;line-height:16.899999618530273px;"> - Conflict-prone Knight Hospitaller who led the charge against Grerr's wedding party. When encircled and defeated, he and his brothers killed each other in a grisly death pact. Presumed to have been mentally-manipulated by Frère Amalric.

Mormulus of Merinita<span style="color:rgb(17,17,17);font-family:verdana,sans-serif;font-size:small;line-height:16.899999618530273px;"> - One-time magus of Mont-Mercure, before the arrival of the "new kids". Was involved in some strange feud with Petra of Tytalus that seemed to involve Hugh, Aeolus' apprentice. Was killed in the covenant's regio by Petra of Tytalus, who collapsed a bunch of rocks on him. His ghost swore vengeance against her and threatened to wake up the titan of the regio if the covenant did not bring him Petra's head. Grerr and Linfiaclach bound Mormulus' ghost into a jar and interrogated it for a few seasons before trading him to an Arab merchant for magical baubles.
