Captain Alexy served with Captain Popov in the Royal Sezjan Navy decades ago, and now owns his own vessel, the Stormrider's Fortune.
Andriy was Mon's understudy until he was terminated this morning based on allegations of improper conduct with some of the female musicians and actresses. He was replaced by Matviyko.
Anya is the older sister of Dukha, the girl who haunts the Legendary. She went missing about 18 months ago after stepping out of their secret shelter on the fifth floor of the theater. Branna has enrolled Captain Popov into looking for her whereabouts.
Artem is an artificer who works for Stal Steel, the main industrial concern on Katarina. Artem is renowned for building pumpkin sized bombs that project sonic energy in a specific path, a process very useful in mining to minimize the risk of a collapse or an unplanned explosion. Marigold suspects he might be responsible for the device that destroyed Khoroshim.
Astral, Natalia is a wealthy socialite on Katarina whose torrid love affairs are both numerous and well publicized. She is wife of Nikita Astral. Rumors swirl that Natalia might have dated the fabled pirate Captain Lafoy in her youth.
Astral, Nikita is a wealthy merchant who is friends with Cardinal Feorode. He is the long-suffering husband of Natalia Astral.
Berdy is the stage manager of the Legendary.
Bohdan is one of Captain Popov's drinking buddies at the Anchor Luck.
Dima, a sergeant in service of the Archduke, runs one of the night patrols on Katarina. A strongly built and tall fellow in his mid thirties, Dima runs an efficient patrol and has little tolerance for the depradations conducted by the Cardinal's men.
Dmitri is the stage manager of the Legendary,who supervises the extras.
Dusana is a famous props designer who oversees the props department at the Legendary.
Herald is a mid-tier actor who works at the Legendary, and he hopes to one day break it big. Upon meeting Mon quickly formed the opinion that Herald was either a dimwit who is wholly focused on himself, or he was a deviously clever individual who hid behind a veneer of silliness. A quick look at the clothes spread all over the furniture and floor of Herald's room, the empty bottles of wine piled in a corner, and the general messiness of the place convinced Mon that it was probably the former.
Ivan is a balding middle-age human who owns the Anchor's Luck, a tavern in Low Town.
Jeronim is the Maître D' at Khoroshim. A tall and thin bald man, Jeronim appears aloof but has a good heart. The Marquess of Sidorov considers him a friend.
Joseph works in accounting at the Legendary, but his true love is designing clothes.
Kisa is the lead female star of the First Crew. She earned her position following an amazing performance in Father Frost Comes to Town, and has served in her position for over two years. Kisa suspects that Luba wants to replace her. Mon once read in Dukha's journal that though Ulan and Kisa are always looking like they get along swimmingly in public, they hate each other with a passion privately.
Lafoy, Captain is a famous Sezjian pirate rumored to have plied his trade around the island of Katarina. About a decade ago, Lafoy is rumored to have stolen a gold cross in a daring raid on a mainland cathedral run by Cardinal Feodore.
Lena is a halfling who works in the marketing department of the Legendary. She is Marigold's roommate.
Luba is the lead female star of the Second Crew. She aspires to take over Kisa's role as the Legendary's most famous actress. Luba first spotted Mon during his unforgettable performance as Brother Gerald in the production of The Goblin and the Turtle Soup at the Fantastic. Having been spotted spending time with Mon in a coffee house, rumors now circulate that the two of them might be an item, much to Vadim's consternation. Luba spent a few traumatic nights in the Cathedral's jail, where she was interrogated by the Cardinal about oak leaves. She was rescued by Sir Gregory Tsaplin's laywer, Sir Matviy. Luba has a cat named Bahzen.
Archduke Maksimillian III is the current ruler of the Island of Katarina. He has a beautiful wife, Yeva, and two daughters, Verushka, 17, and Yula, 10. Over the last one hundred years, the Svetozars have managed the island expertly, extracting resources, generating wealth, and ensuring that this wealth was shared equitably with most of the island's inhabitants. This has created a surprisingly open society with a vibrant cultural scene. Over 45,000 people now live on the Island of Katarina, with two thirds of them residing in the capital city of the same name. Archduke Maxsimillian has inherited his family's talent for business and management, and he has continued to increase the island's wealth and spread its culture beyond its border. An active shipping industry has grown to export Kat steel and its derived products, and ship building soon followed, diversifying the island's economy further.
Maria, a human female about 60 years of age, is Sir Matviy's secretary.
Marinka is the Legendary's first author, a position she obtained due to the successful run of The Story of the Wind six years ago. She writes the scenarios for most of the plays produced by the theatre. Though she specializes in musicals, Marinka enjoys the occasional macabre piece as well. Despite her rough edges, she loves to collaborate on scripts and is free with her time and advice. Mon has approached her about writing a script written in part on Dukha's story.
Matviyko is Mon's new understudy following the beginning of General Toptigin Cheats Death. He replaced Andriy. A lanky youth that closely resembles Mon, Matviyko has always wanted to be an actor.
Sir Matviy, an old man of over eighty, is Sir Gregory Tsaplin's solicitor. His offices are located two streets north and three streets east of the Legendary, on the second floor of an ornate building. His secretary, Maria, runs the front of the office, screens his calls, and is otherwise very protective of him.
Nadie, a human female about 40 years of age, is the head of security at the Legendary.
Nastasia, a human female about 50 years of age, is the owner of the Warm Whistle, and is a confidante of Luba.
Ola works in the kitchen of the Palace, and hopes to become a chef someday
Olehiv is the Marquess's butler. He has been in the Sidorov's service since the Marquess was a toddler and has worked selflessly to ensure that the Marquess's excesses and overenthusiastic schemes do not bring sudden ruin to the Sidorov family name.
Ony is Sir Gregory Tsaplin's long-suffering manservant.
Oskana is a middle-aged human woman who serves as the head designer for the Legendary. Her costumes are renowned, and she has created truly amazing outfits that have achieved iconic status.
Ostap is Katarina's harbor master. He administers the wharfs and controls the merchandise leaving and entering the island.
Paula is the human middle-aged woman, runs the Needle and Thread sewing shop, and loves to share tips sewing with Branna.
Pavel is the head carpenter for the Legendary. Known as much for his bad jokes as for his legendary appetite, Pavel stands 6 feet tall and his arms are twice the size of the average human's thigh. Strong and hard working, Pavel seems to know everything that is happening around the theater.
Popov, Captain Ilich is an old fisherman and fourth generation resident of Katarina. Over eighty, he usually hangs out with his friends Yevheniy, Vasyl, and Bohdan at a tavern on the waterfront called the Anchor's Luck. Captain Popov enjoys a good game of low stakes cards and a few drinks, but his purse is usually light enough to prevent him from thoroughly enjoying the evening. He knows all of the coves around the island, and has spent a lifetime fishing on his old boat, the Tall Tale. Almost blind, Mon removes this affliction and restores his eyesight, and Captain Popov doesn't know how to thank him.
Raissa is the chief marketer of the Legendary.
Roksolana, a half-elf, is the owner of Blossom Boutique, the premier florist in Katarina.
Sidorov, Zoya, known as the Marquess of Sidorov, is a rich widow known for her extravagant entertaining parties and her propensity for monopolizing the conversation. The Marquess is always on the lookout for new and exciting elements she can add to her repertoire, and she especially loves pretty clothes. She is best friends with Lady Sirenko.
Sirenko, Lady Fayina, is the Marquess of Sidorov's best friend. The two women met as children when they both received private lessons from a well-known tutor. The two of them have been inseparable ever since, and rumors circulate that they may be more than friends. Lady Sirenko never married, and she continues to administer her family shipping concern with skill.
Ulan is the first lead actor at the Legendary, a role he has served for over seven years and 79 distinct plays. His talented acting and his incredible transformative abilities hint at a darker past. Rumors that Ulan and Sir Gregory Tsaplin share a connection beyond the walls of the theatre suggest that this is why Ulan has remained in this role longer than anyone else. Ulan and Vadim were overheard by Mon discussing Luba, and each of them expressed their loathing for the actress. Mon once read in Dukha's journal that though Ulan and Kisa are always looking like they get along swimmingly in public, they hate each other with a passion privately.
Vadim is the second lead actor. A human of average height, Vadim's impressive acting range has ensured a rapid climb nearly to the top, but rumors abound that Ulan's personal connection with Sir Gregory will prevent Vadim from ever reaching the top billing. Unless, of course, an incident prevented Ulan from continuing on.... Vadim and Ulan were overheard by Mon discussing Luba, and each of them expressed their loathing for the actress.
Vasil is one of Captain Popov's drinking buddies at the Anchor Luck.
Veronika owns the Gemstone Harbor, a jewelry shop where Marigold sells some of her wares.
Verushka is Archduke Maxsimillian's eldest daughter. At 17, she has strong views about the politics of Katarina and its social scene. A studious student of history, Verushka always carries a book with her. She was startled when she noticed that Mon's understudy Matviyko had joined the crew of the Legendary.
Viveka is the owner of Kaleidoscope Winery, located on the Slope of Katarina. She loves good wines, and is always willing to purchase rare or exotic bottles, no questions asked.
Yakov is a portly bald man who was hired to kidnap Kisa and deliver her to the port city of Kyan on the coast of Sezjan.
Yevheniy is one of Captain Popov's drinking buddies at the Anchor Luck.
Yula is Archduke Maxsimillian's youngest daughter. At nearly 13, she loves riding her horse and exploring the island. A budding outdoors girl, Yula often skips her lessons to play outside the Katarina Palace.
Yurchik is the theater manager of the Legendary and is responsible for daily operations as well as long-term planning. He is not a fan of Luba, and has attempted multiple times to get rid of the actress.

SPECIAL ABILITIES
Ink Cloud (Ex): A kraken can emit a cloud of black, venomous ink in an 80-foot spread once per minute as a free action while underwater. This cloud provides total concealment, which the kraken can use to escape a fight that is going badly. Creatures within the cloud are considered to be in darkness. In addition, the ink is toxic, functioning as contact poison against all creatures caught within it. The ink cloud persists for 1 minute before dispersing. The save DC against the poison effect is Constitution-based.
Kraken Ink: Ink cloud—contact; save Fort DC 29; frequency 1/round for 10 rounds; effect 1 Str damage plus nausea; cure 2 consecutive saves.
Jet (Ex): A kraken can jet backward as a full-round action, at a speed of 280 feet. It must move in a straight line, but does not provoke attacks of opportunity while jetting.
Rend Ship (Ex): As a full-round action, a kraken can attempt to use four of its tentacles to grapple a ship of its size or smaller. It makes a CMB check opposed by the ship’s captain’s Profession (sailor) check, but the kraken gets a cumulative +4 bonus on the check for each size category smaller than Gargantuan the ship is. If the kraken grapples the ship, it holds the ship motionless; it can attack targets anywhere on or within the ship with its tentacles, but can only attack foes on deck with its free arms and can’t attack foes at all with its beak. Each round it maintains its hold on the ship, it automatically inflicts bite damage on the ship’s hull.
Tenacious Grapple (Ex): A kraken does not gain the grappled condition if it grapples a foe with its arms or tentacles.
Vitar Shadowborn: A destitute noble who used to own Shadowborn Manor prior to Daryle purchasing it.
