The Cast of the Druid Game, parts One, Two, and 2.1

In no particular order:

Master Druid Barnabus Boltagon - second or third ranked Druid at Whitetower (if the Druids marked such things) and organizer of the quest for the Unseelie Heartstones; Uncle to Catrina Maximoff: looks 50ish but probably older, with short honey-blond hair fading fast and slowly becoming shot with gray.

Pan - diminutive fire Fey; messenger for the Druids; connoisseur of the arts (especially fire dancing): only a few inches tall, with red and orange hair and butterfly wings; leaves behind pleasant smelling smoke when he's in a hurry.

Young Master Amelia - teaching assistant; research aide assigned to Sir Ardrau: quiet, pleasant; very disappointed in herself for not being more accepting of Sir Ardrau's "condition".

Darius Wordsmith - bard and poet; one of a handful of experts on Unseelie poetry in Easterlee (although there are many dabblers and aficionados): dark hair with an artistic touch of gray; long, lean build; dark eyes and an easy smile; good conversationalist.

Lady Grivane - fallen knight; comrade to Sir Ardrau on his last quest who died before reaching the Angel's Heart; slave to Lord Jaulvor: mummified corpse in blackened armor, typically riding a rabid worg.

Young Mistress Crystal - adopted mother of Catrina, mother of Luna, wife (estranged) of Ranger Pietro Greatwood; former elementalist instructor on family hiatus: Auburn hair; youthful, athletic figure; smoky blue eyes that turn gray or green to suit her mood or the magic she's channeling. REVISION: Young Mistress Crystal's real name is Crystalia, but she prefers the diminutive.  She took the married name of Maximoff, changing it to Lencher when her husband's lineage was revealed, and then dropped all surnames when she became estranged from her husband a few years ago.
 
Rimeaea - dancer for Romgald's Company, a group of traveling performers; Air (Ice) Elementalist; perhaps the only survivor of attacks on Greatwood Road caravans by strange creatures: about 5'4", with short, dark hair and a gymnast's build; pleasant and kind, but "allergic" to Shen Wu Ji because of their elemental sympathies.

Erik Lencher, Prince Magnus of Easterlee - Descendant of pre-Druid noble houses; one of eleven sitting "Princelings" of the Easterlee Council; Air Mage of nearly unrivaled power; Grandfather of Catrina Maximoff; Magocrat: 6' tall and solidly built, with white hair cut in noble style (pageboy); rarely walks, since flying requires an insignificant fraction of his power and perhaps less concentration on his part.

Master Brink - Elder (and elderly) Druid; seer and diviner of the first rank; toymaker and chess piece carver: stooped well below 5' tall, with little hair to speak of, and gray eyes that spend too much time focused on something other than what is before him.

Cleopatra - Cheshire Siamese; Familiar of Whitetower; "knowledge collector" and trader in secrets: dark furred, with amber eyes, and a playful-and-wicked-by-turns smile that seems to expand as she disappears; approximately Dex-sized, but a tad heavier, since she merely clings to walls and ceilings instead of flying.

Luna - soon to be Druid Initiate; 8 year old daughter of Crystal & Pietro; sister (half- and adopted) of Catrina: brown hair; dark eyes that sometimes seem wise beyond her years; plump and energetic little girl who just happens to be able to read and manipulate earth and stone.

Senior Ranger Pietro Greatwood - first Maximoff, after his adopted father, then Lencher, after his real father, Prince Magnus, changed to a generic Ranger surname after an explosive falling out with same; "Master" Ranger; Father of Catrina and Luna; estranged husband of Crystal; son of Prince Magnus, Erik Lencher: white hair and dark eyes (sort of a silver-headed Viggo Mortensen); weapons master with mystically backed combat talent - superhuman speed and skill; remote, withdrawn and temperamental; rarely seen in Whitetower of late, and never in Easterlee.
