BarneySpecies: River OtterCreator: Christian O'KaneBarney was simple-minded since birth. The one thing that he knows anything about is fish, and after the curses became the fishkeeper for Lord Altera Loriod. Barney was the only one who noticed that the goldfish where Loriod kept a pyrock hidden were sick and thus, gave an important clue to Prince Phil that eventually led to Loriod's fall. He has since moved to Whales where he tends to the fish on the Naval Academy Grounds. |

JosephinaSpecies: Female HumanCreator: Christian O'KaneJosephina was once captain of Lord Alvarez Loriod's guard. When the curses made her female, Lord Altera Loriod commanded that all who had switched genders to conform to their new identity. She was given in marriage to Barney, and expected to keep the river otter's house. She came to love Barney as he came to love her, but she felt hopeless and that her life could never go anywhere again. Phil discovered her plight, and arranged for her and Barney to move to Whales. While Josephina's freedom there is greater, she has come to accept her role as mother and wife more fully now that hope has been given back to her. |

After King Tenomides became a widower, he was adopted as the Crown Prince of Whales. While assisting in the defence of Metamor during the Battle of Three Gates, his Cannon backfired and he was covered in Whalish Fire. He would have died a grisly death if the curses had not been cast at just that moment. He was healed and became a white rabbit. He has to sleep in a cage though, because he has a greater tendency towards going feral than do most Keepers. Phil stayed at Metamor and served as Duke Thomas's Chief of Intelligence. After news of Tenomides's failing health, Phil left Metamor to return to his homeland to assist his father in managing the kingdom. |

TenomidesSpecies: Untransformed HumanCreator: Christian O'KaneKing Tenomides of Whales is an old widower who has no heirs.
