riff
riff has a small gang called the jets that he typically runs with. he's nowhere near as infamous as kaz, but he has a reputation for being wily and not getting caught. he also has a reputation for being an asshole, but whether or not that's true is yet to be determined. he runs with the dregs on occasion but he mostly sticks to the jets.
dodge
dodge is a street magician in ketterdam. he goes to the local university and is trying to find the merchant that is responsible for his sister's death. he runs with the dregs occasionally but typically tends to work for whoever pays him the best. dodge is a shadow summoner that’s aware of his abilities. he’s very proficient with them, and he doesn’t try to hide his abilities from those he works with.
connor
connor was taken to the little palace at age five. he’s made aware of his abilities and what they entail, and he sets to training and learning about the history of ravka. he’s a heartrender that sometimes has issues getting his temper under control, but he’s good in a fight and he’s well known for his knowledge of ravkan history and literature from all over the world. he’s not the friendliest of people—being from kerch tends to lead to prejudices—but connor has a reputation for being scary when he’s angry, so it works out. when he’s seventeen, he’s sent on a mission to kerch. he’s tasked with finding information on the merchant council, to see if any of them are selling jurda parem to the fjerdans. he works undercover at the bandycat. he hates it, but it’s a good place to be in order to hear any secrets.
art
art is a tidemaker indentured to patrick zweig. he was sent to kerch by the little palace to see if any of the merchant council was selling grisha secrets to ravka’s enemies. unfortunately, his ship was captured by kerch slavers on the way there and art was sold to the house of snow. he spends two years there. he’s absolutely miserable and he wants nothing more than to return to ravka. when his indenture is bought by patrick zweig, art knows that’s no longer possible. patrick is one of art’s least favorite clients. he’s a rich merchant that spends his money on whatever he wants and he doesn’t like sharing. art’s indenture with the house of snow is ended, but his indenture with patrick starts the next day. patrick’s wife, tashi, is just as bad as her husband. art can’t escape, because patrick has eyes everywhere and tashi seems to know what he’s planning before art himself even knows. he wants, desperately, to escape, but he doesn’t know where he’ll go if he gets out of ketterdam. he can’t return to ravka as a failure, but he can’t stay in kerch, either.
