All Hail Ruby Parker

𝐂𝐡𝐚𝐫𝐚𝐜𝐭𝐞𝐫𝐬

Ruby Parker – The Reluctant Heir A sharp-witted high schooler with a streak of sarcasm and a hidden yearning for purpose. Thrust into a destiny she never asked for, Ruby must navigate the world of Eldryn with one foot still in the life she's leaving behind.

Kael Thornhart – The Brooding Guardian An elite warrior bound to protect Eldryn's royal line, Kael is stoic, fiercely loyal, and haunted by past failures. His icy demeanor hides a deep capacity for care—and secrets that could unravel the realm.

Marla Vex – The Rebel Witch Banished for refusing to swear allegiance to the dark council, Marla is wild, unpredictable, and brilliant. She sees through the pomp of royal politics and becomes Ruby's fiercest (and most chaotic) ally.

Finnick – The Talking Fox Clever, sly, and endlessly quotable, Finnick serves as both guide and comic relief. But his loyalty masks a mysterious past—he may know more about Eldryn's fate than he lets on.

Queen Elira – The Phantom Queen Ruby's mother, once believed dead, lingers in half-whispers and visions. Her disappearance fueled civil war in Eldryn, and Ruby must unravel her legacy to unite the fractured kingdom.

Lord Malgareth – The Usurper A master manipulator wielding f*******n magic, he's claimed the throne in Ruby's absence. Malgareth will stop at nothing to ensure the prophecy remains buried—and the rightful heir silenced.

Gareth Parker – The Forgotten King Once a decorated soldier in Eldryn's royal guard, Gareth sacrificed everything to protect his daughter. After the fall of Queen Elira, he fled to the human world with infant Ruby, cloaking her lineage in shadow and raising her as an ordinary girl in an ordinary town. Quiet, steadfast, and a little world-weary, Gareth carries the burden of old battles and secrets he's vowed never to share.
