Oh, definitely! [name_m]Harrison[/name_m] [name_m]Ellington[/name_m] is dead when the story begins, and [name_f]Kenna[/name_f] later dies as well (my poor babies 
) In the prequel to their story, [name_f]Eileen[/name_f], [name_f]Monroe[/name_f], [name_f]Cecelia[/name_f], and [name_f]Sonya[/name_f] [name_m]Ellington[/name_m] all die.
[name_f]Hestia[/name_f] Olivere dies at the end of her story, and so does [name_f]Verity[/name_f] [name_f]Vale[/name_f]. [name_m]Julius[/name_m] [name_m]Blaze[/name_m] dies as well.
There are a ton more, but these are the stand outs!
DYHAC who are immortal?
Depends on your definition. Iāve got a few ghosts (who canāt very well die again), but I think thatās it. Aevia is trying to make herself immortal, but she hasnāt done it and never will. OH I remember Lireyin was cursed with immortality (not invincibility though, they can still be killed they just wonāt age) as a price to pay for finding their sister, but the curse was broken when their best friend drowned them and then traveled to the underworld to bring them back (itās a very long story).
DYHAC with control over water? (hydrokinesis)

I have a race of people called Deyeonads who can control the elements (which ones depends on the person), so yes. Specifically [name_m]Ren[/name_m] [name_m]Eldar[/name_m] and [name_f]Nixie[/name_f] [name_m]Osian[/name_m], but there are more. [name_f]Blythe[/name_f] [name_f]Marin[/name_f] can also control water, to some extent, but sheās not a Deyeonad.

DYHAC who ride horses?

Many of them have ridden horses, often not particularly intentionally. . .
Ciroās father dabbled in horse racing, and she befriended a lot of his horses and rode them sometimes (which makes her a much better equestrian than [name_m]Pax[/name_m], which is very, very funny). [name_m]Cyprian[/name_m] has also undoubtedly done horseback riding lessons and I imagine he enjoyed them because he likes animals.
DYHAC who are very allergic to cats?
1 Like
[name_m]Giuseppe[/name_m] Tamborello, the antagonist of my story, hates virtually all animals, but especially cats because one, they donāt like him and act hostile towards him, and two, heās allergic to them (which he finds embarrassing). Needless to say, he has no cats kept as pets. The only scenario where I could imagine him adopting a pet cat was if it were one of those rare exotic breeds, such as a Serval, purely to show off. Otherwise, heād just ignore the cat and neglect its basic needs.
DYHAC who have changed their birth name? If so, what was the reason?
[name_f]Ginevra[/name_f] [name_m]Gilbert[/name_m] was born [name_f]Ruth[/name_f] [name_m]Brennan[/name_m], and she changed her name for a few reasons. The first was that she became a thief who didnāt want to be tracked down by using her real name, and the second being that she wanted to become her own person rather than the little girl with a dead mom and an abusive father.

DYHAC any characters who are traitors (to the bad side or the good side)?
1 Like
Most prominently, have a guy called [name_m]Green[/name_m] [name_m]Leaf[/name_m] who is 1000% a traitor. Iāve also got bits and pieces of treacherous behavior from various people, like how the [name_m]General[/name_m] betrays [name_m]Loren[/name_m] all the dang time but doesnāt really have sides, and how [name_m]Quince[/name_m] betrayed Liliani twice, once because she thought [name_m]Basil[/name_m] deserved to know what happened to his parents, and once because Liliani was planning to brainwash him for the [name_m]Council[/name_m]. I suppose Liliani herself might also qualify as a traitor, but only to the person [name_m]Basil[/name_m] thought she was.

DYHAC who have personality disorders?
The one I can think of off the top of my head is Glitter with narcissistic personality disorder, but there are probably at least a couple more. A lot are neurodivergent in some way, mostly autism, but I donāt think that counts.
DYHAC who are autistic?

Nelia Elephantaye is definitely on the autism spectrum because sheās heavily based off of someone I know who is. Iām sure I have others, but sheās the one Iām 100% sure of right now. Fun fact about Nelia, in case anyone was wondering. Her first name is short for Cornelia, the first name of an author who had a huge hand in getting me started on writing. Her last name is a play on the word elephant, in honor of a picture book that Iām super fond of.
