Zelsai
- Zelsai is the great tree of Makira, through which all magic is made and spread through out the people of Makira. Each leaf on it's branches represents a person. When a baby is born, the tree grows a leaf for them. When a person dies their leaf withers and falls off, returning to the earth at the base of the tree, keeping the soil fertile. The Zelsai tree has it's own sentient consciousness. If the tree is in need then it will send it's thoughts up through it's branches to an individual leaf or leaves on the tree. These thoughts then reach the people represented by those leaves and they either choose to answer the tree's call, or to ignore it.
X-Phantom
- This is the spirit of the machines. Every mechanic believes that something is in the machines, that gives them their individual touch and even sometimes a personality. X-Phantom is the name that this spirit has given itself. It is a mass consciousness that spreads through out all of the machines all over Makira. It feels the pain that the machines take on a daily basis. It gives the machines a feeling of purpose. In some cases it will even completely take over a particular machine in order to communicate with another species.
Andrew
- The Ysorn who created the sacred tattoo. After ascending to their new home the Ysorn brought together their best alchemists who worked together and made him a potion of immortality. he now holds the position of the High Chancellor in the Council of Zel. He rarely leaves, Merites, the Ysorn's home. There is a rumor going around that he suffers from psychosis, as he is occasionally seen causing trouble around the city claiming to be satan. He is the only Ysorn ever to posses wings.
Ureya
- The goddess of the Aitiri. She is thought of as a maternal figure. There is an annual festival to her celebrating fertility. Ureya will choose one Aitiri she deems worthy and she will bless them with the gift of pregnancy. Three months later the Aitiri child will be born. The Ureyan temple has one Master Priest located at the Aitirian capital city of Lyrentya. Each temple has a designated Chief Priest who is in charge of taking care of the temple and preaching the word of Ureya.
