Wayne Hoffman grew back into Ouroboros and devoured Stephanos just as he was about to do eat Emily Kingston. Whether it was because he felt like it was the right time or because there was any concern for her life it isn't clear. Ouroboros never bothered to change bodies or hide his identity since, helping Hope with her revenge against Romazvhir. He became her mentor and named her as Xesirit as she gave into the monster. Ouroboros now continues his search for revenge alone and in a much lest focused manner. One can argue that he makes himself a little too easy to find...

KULSHEDRA in modest times
Attacked, called out and betrayed, Kulshedra was left with practically nothing with Sergej took out his revenge and Fenrad followed. Kulshedra managed to flee with what little strength she had left and relied on Aspen's help for a long time. Fenrad's rape resulted in an offspring, Raicho, proving wrong whatever certainty there was of Kulshedra's sterility. She now lives secluded and in a new body, slowly plotting her rise back to power.
♈ ∞
RAICHO a terrible noise
The baby monster that did not come from Mother Monster, Raicho is kept under the radar by her mother Kulshedra although she wanders about a lot with the company of her doberman, Wendigo. Raicho loves her mommy more than anything in the world. With the uncanny ability of holding two bodies at once, she likes to take the body of pretty boys and girls to break their heart and their bones. Her great, terrible noises can make wood, stone, flesh and bone shatter, but she is still learning.

WENDIGO the watch dog
Most animals have the tendency to run away from monsters and monsters don't really pay attention to animals, but this particular doberman is rather fond of baby Raicho. Wendigo is a very well trained dog who is only loyal to Raicho, protecting and watching her. Unless he think he, his property or his owner are in danger, he's not vicious, though he growls at strangers who stray too close. An incredibly intelligent doberman, sometimes almost a bit too much.
FENRAD human no more
After Sasha was rescued, Sergej went mad from anger, giving the monster inside a chance to take over control. Fenrad regained absolute command, silencing Sergej forever. To punish the human, he tried to kill his daughter Sasha, leavng her to die in a ditch like the miserable rat she was, a mercy from the last flicker of Sergej who urged Fenrad to walk away - a final spark. Kulshedra did not escape Fenrad's wrath, as he blamed her for his fate and made her suffer the same destiny he had: humiliation. He violated her brutally; unbeknownst to him, she became pregnant and gave birth to Raicho.
When Hope discovered who Romazvhir was as the monster who had raped her mother, she began to hunt him. By chance or opportunity, she met Ouroboros, who having eaten Stephanos wanted to move on to his next target. He became her mentor when both found that they a revenge in common. Before killing her father, Hope asked that she be granted a new name to complete her metamorphosis into a monster and Xesirit was born when Romazvhir drew his last breath. Now on her own, killing and devouring as much as she pleases, far away from her origins and morality, there is little left to remind her of Hope Moore.
♉ 24
BALTHAZAR he chose his path
Taught to control his monster urges and urged to take a stand, Balthazar wandered around for a long time, only caring about the nature of his father and mother, but soon he chose another path, hunting down monsters and devils, looking out for human rebellion groups, making sure they were safe so that they can kill monsters. Travelling around the world as an errand avenger, he ended up finding a beaten up Julia and took her with him on his travels. A casual fling, he ended up getting her pregnant (a fact unknown to him) before he urged her to return to her wife Emilia.
♋ 25
JACK & CERBOS cut a deal
Cerbos was never able to control a body completely and keep its voices shut. Instead, he jumped from one dying man to another to breathe life into them, allowing them to live as long as they allowed him to feed through them. Jack Gibson was as good as dead when the monster found him. Desperate to live, Jack accepted the deal. The two travel together now, and ever since, the man with the monster in his ear has been forced to question and forget his sense of morality. Still, Jack finds some of it to stand up to the monster, which results in Cerbos taking over from time to time.
♌ 43
TEAGAN hold on to humanity
Teagan was raised on "even the good people can't always control themselves". It was a justification, a reason for her to be as human as she could. A childhood spent travelling ended up in an encounter with a devil at the age of twelve, which left Teagan scarred and separated from her mother. Ever since, she has gone on alone, looking for her. No one wants Teagan, neither monsters nor humans, but she lives in hope. Despite everything, she feels human, in her emotions and her motivations, and she refuses to give into the monster instinct. She wants to be worth all the things that humans crave: life, love, happiness.
♍ 17
JULIA heart of a lion
Julia has always known she is a half-hybrid and has always hidden it. A lone travelled, she ended up finding a community hidden in the Catatombs de Paris, where she found a pregnant woman, Emilia, trapped after a monster raid. They became friends and later, after Em had the twins, they began dating. They relationship was interrupted when Em was kidnapped a cult and they were separated for six months, during which she met Balthazar and became pregnant. Reunited with her wife, they travelled to Amiens, a community for both humans and hybrid to co-exist.
♌ 29
PATIENCE of two halves
Born to two hybrids, Patience had the good fortune never to be familiar with her father. Less fortunate was her and her mother's capture by a monster when she was fourteen. Treated as some sort of pet, the combination of Stockholm syndrome (her mother's) and torture (her own) didn't do much to develop her faith in people, hybrid or otherwise. She eventually got away, and has been travelling - running – ever since.
It would not be a stretch to call Brynja a stray devil. While one can't pick their nature, this devil strongly believes she can choose her own path - if that is true or not, it's something she will eventually find out. Mocked and even targeted violently by other devils because of her unwillingness to convert humans into sulfur slaves, Brynja has separated from her sulfur siblings, though she still loves Daddy no matter what. But one could argue that the Devil her made her this human on purpose...
When he was young, he was saved by the cult and since then he has dedicated his life to serving those people, committed whole-heartedly to them. He believed in their virtue and the Prophet and his gratitude and loyalty soon became fanaticism. Once sulfur slaves were needed for protection, he was among the first to volunteer. When news of twins reached him, Levi was eager to lead the group to rescue them from Julia. He rarely left Emilia's side once they had her, only when requested by the Prophet. It was what spared him from the bloodbath when Julia returned to rescue Emilia and the twins. Deciding only he would be strong enough to put the Bringer and the Saviours back on their journey to save humanity, he vowed to find Emilia and do whatever necessary.
Wayne Hoffman, the new pet of Stephanos, took his sweet time until he revealed that he was Ouroboros and Emily almost got caught up in that sort of family affair, was it not for Peter Johnson, who had just left the cult of the prophet Sebastien. The two of them quickly became great friends and slowly began to build a solid human front which was not as big as previous ones but far more effective because of it. Emily became the leader of said force with Peter as her right-hand man. They recruited only the bare minimum people they could trust, especially because some of their members were monster hybrids.
♋ 40
JERRY before, now and after
While Sebastien the false prophet was worshiped, the world had no idea that a true one had been roaming about since before the beginning of the Wars. Jerry Redmond has spent his entire life in his home nation, Canada, left with little more than ghost towns and refuge camps. Immune to the powers of both monsters and devils, Jerry always had the knowledge of the before, now and after of the world and the people inhabiting it. This drove him to seek solitude, dreaming of a simple, normal life he will never have. He is the only one who knows if the red skies will ever clear.
♑ 42
EMILIA love over prejudice
Emilia grew up in a safe community in the Catatombs de Paris, living her normal life. She became pregnant with her ex-husband's children, which she was going to keep a secret - nothing to worry about as one day a monster raised it. Barely surviving, traped with a broken leg, she was rescued by Julia, who would become her wife later on. Things took the wrong turn when Levi kidnapped Emilia and the twins. Trapped there for six months, Julia came back for her and they ended up searching for shelter in Amiens.
♉ 31
CHLOE & MATTHIAS the young hope
Barely old enough to perceive the world around them, the baby twins had a rather rough start when their mother was kidnapped to make sure they were safe as they were believed to be humanity's last hope for some odd reason. Twins were becoming unheard of and because these were born during the disappearance of Mother Monster, they were said to be the bearers of great things to come. If it's true or not, both Emilia and Julia don't seem very keen on educating their children to become warriors, rather to love and protect them as much as they can.
♏ 3
ADAM let's play a game
An orphan since childhood, Adam is a talented musician, collecting old CDs and cassettes through his travels, joined rebellion after rebellion, never staying for long in one place. Always bringing warmth to those he stayed with by providing them with light entertainment to ease the minds, Adam never had much contact with monsters. But misfortune happened when he was caught by Raicho. Instead of an imminent death, Adam became hers, her very own toy: a human who sings for her and in return, he has kept his life - for now.
♌ 23
MILO renounce them all
Milo was just a normal kid and like many others, who got lost from his family during the Wars. He was rescued by Emily Kingston and she took care of him - until Stephanos took her away. He met Nicola and ended up developing a crush on her, but that soon was made impossible as she sacrificed herself to save him and the rebels he was with at the time. From that moment on, Milo started travelling by himself, hopping from rebellion to rebellion but never actually setting down, always rejecting the approaches of devils.
