The Mannamong Main Characters

Kali Teal

Kali is an inquisitive eight-year-old girl that believes the bedtime stories about the mannamong her mother told her.
Angry and confused when a rogue mannamong enters her life, making her sick and takes her hostage.
Now filled with resentment and confusion, her ability to see spirits leaves her feeling alone when she is unable to convince her mother the mannamong exists.
She mustards the courage to let go of her resentment and places her trust in others rather than cling to hatred. Even if it’s naive, it’s her way to keep her faith in the mannamong.

Kali’s loving and diligent single mother. Giving birth to Kali at a very young age, Vianne works hard to support herself and her daughter.
Kali’s unexplainable illness not only adds more trials to living a supplemental life but humiliates her deep down for failing to cure her, like the doctor she wishes she could’ve been.
After Kali was born, Vianne put aside her pharmaceutical studies and buckled down to attain her bachelor’s in Biology.
She lands a job as a park ranger to support them both for the time being. However, Kali’s frequent doctor visits with little results to a cure had taken a tremendous debt.
She hopes helping Trent make a historic discovery on Red Mountain will resolve her past pains.

Hot-headed and cautious, Tontorus is a hostile mannamong out for himself.
Resentful towards humanity for the death of his mentor, he clings to this grudge to justify his excuse not to assist humans, despite it being his duty.
He is remorseful of his past actions and has grown weary of being spiteful.
Wishes to redeem himself but has little hope of gaining that second chance.
He plays the image of the bad guy to Kali and others to keep himself free and safe. Yet struggles to back up his threats with his conflicting moral compass and guilt.

The daughter of Mother Nature and de facto leader of the Mannamong.
A mannamong who sought out to help Kali alleviate her illness and dilemma with Tontorus from afar.
Despite her assistance, she can come across as quite condescending to the whole ordeal and with Kali in particular.
She prefers to keep Kali out of it as much as possible to reclaim Tontorus and fix his mess.
But her hands are full with monitoring the other mannamong involved in this hunt to ensure they don’t make the situation worse.

Hawk’s quiet yet faithful companion.
A mannamong character who sacrificed his high authority to be by his human friend’s side. This sacrificing act disgusts the righteous Scorch.
With few words to be spoken, Galerith complies to help Kali and Tontorus separate peacefully.
But unlike Gisenes and Hawk’s plans of separating the two, he intends to form a bond between them similar to what he and Hawk share. He believes another unity between mortals and spirits is needed today.

Mischievous and terrorizing, competing against Scorch in reclaiming Tontorus by haunting Kali.
Quite the meddler compared to most mannamong, her twisted antics are her excuse to get involved and learn how to guide humanity as mannamong are suppose to during an age when the spirits have gone passive and hidden.
She uses Kali as her guinea pig to stretch how far one’s actions define their real character to prove who are genuinely dutiful or hypocrites. All by taking advantage of Kali’s naivety and desperation to be rid of Tontorus.

An infamous hunter of his kind, this mannamong character is known for being the one who initially captured and imprisoned Tontorus for his crime.
Returning to put Tontorus back in his place, Scorch prowls Kali from the shadows waiting for the opportune moment to capture Tontorus the moment he escapes.
Aside from his iconic bounty, Scorch makes it a point to persecute any mannamong who ignores or defies the mission Mother Nature gave them in guiding humanity.
He sees mannamong that follow their desires instead of their duty as blasphemous.
