Xanther is Kaelen’s only true rival in terms of discipline. He believes that the Elite 9 should be a wall that the Shadow King cannot break. He is initially very suspicious of Lyra because her "uncontrolled" light makes him feel like he’s standing too close to a sun that might explode. Power: Density Control & Invulnerability. He can turn his skin into indestructible obsidian or diamond-hard metal. He is the ultimate "Vanguard." Unlike the Ferros-Vanes who shape metal, the Iron-Hearts become it. Their name refers to a legend that their ancestors traded their human hearts for cores of enchanted steel to survive the First Shadow War.

Seraphina was the one who predicted the return of the Aethelgard heir. She is Lyra’s secret mentor, often whispering cryptic warnings about the "Prophecy of Sacrifice" that the Dean and the others are trying to hide from her. Power: Psychometry & Spirit Sight. She is blind in the physical world but sees the "Aura" of everyone around her. She can read the "echoes" of an object's past just by touching it. The Stargazers are the ancient seers of Enchantaria. They do not fight with swords, but with destiny. Their name suggests they see the souls of the living as clearly as the stars in the sky.

Caspian is the "Joker" of the Elite 9, using humor to hide the immense pressure his family puts on him to outperform everyone—especially Kaelen. He views the mission to find the Sun-Stone as a race he intends to win. Power: Electro-Motion. He can move at the speed of light for short bursts and generate high-voltage arcs from his fingertips. The Volt-Sovereigns were once rivals for the throne. They believe that power should be fast and absolute. Their name indicates their belief that "Light" is slow, but "Lightning" is instant.

Elowen grew up in isolation, talking more to plants than people. She is incredibly observant and can sense the "life force" of others. She is the first to notice that Lyra’s aura isn't just bright—it’s "overflowing" with every color of the spectrum. Power: Chlorokinesis (Nature/Life). She can grow lethal, thorn-covered vines from marble floors and create healing spores from her palms. This family governs the Great Jungles of the East. The "Bloom" part of their name refers to their ability to bring life to dead lands, but "Wilder" warns of their ferocity. They are the doctors and the poisoners of Enchantaria.

Bastian is the "Older Brother" of the group. He was sent to the Academy not just to learn, but to keep the peace between the bickering nobles. He is the only one who doesn't care about Lyra’s "mortal" past; if you can fight, you're his friend. * Power: Metallurgy & Structural Manipulation. He can reshape any metal within a 50-yard radius into shields, cages, or blades. The Ferros-Vanes are the legendary weaponsmiths of the kingdom. It is said they "breathed life into the walls" of the Academy. Their name signifies their role as the ultimate protectors who can adapt to any battle.

The youngest daughter of the Sea Lords. Marina is the "calm" to Kaia’s "storm." She is the first person to be kind to Lyra at the Academy, sensing the immense, warm power hidden inside her. She acts as Lyra’s emotional anchor when Kaelen’s training becomes too much. Power: Water and Mist. She can heal wounds using enchanted water and create massive tidal waves or blinding fogs. The Thalassic family is the oldest noble line of the Azure Coast. Legend says they have mermaid blood in their ancestry, which explains their ethereal beauty and their ability to breathe underwater.

A high-ranking Noble from the Terrene Province. She initially looks down on Lyra for being "mortal-born," but after Lyra saves her during a training accident, Kaia becomes her fiercest protector. She provides the "tough love" in the trio. Power: Earth Manipulation. She can sense vibrations through the ground and turn stone into liquid or armor. The Terrastones are the architects of Enchantaria. They built the Academy and the Royal Palace. Her name represents her personality: grounded, tough, and impossible to break.

The son of a fallen noble house, Kaelen was raised to be a weapon. He was taught that "mercy is a luxury the dead cannot afford." Because he wields Darkness, many fear he will turn evil like the Shadow King, which is why he keeps everyone at a distance with a cold, ruthless persona. He is strict with Lyra because he knows the enemy will be even crueler. Power: Dual-Wielder of Ice and Dark. He can freeze time for a split second and create shadows that act as physical blades. He carries a hyphenated name because he is the union of two fallen Great Houses—one that ruled the Shadow Lands and one that ruled the Northern Tundra. The name carries a "cursed" reputation at the Academy.

Lyra grew up thinking she was a "glitch" in the mortal world. She spent her life feeling like she didn't fit in, unaware that her "adopted mother," Elena, was actually a high-ranking royal guard who gave up her magic to hide her. She enters the Academy with zero knowledge of etiquette or magic, making her an outsider among the nobles. Power: The Aura of All. Initially, she can only produce raw Light, but she eventually learns to mimic and combine Earth, Water, Fire, and Air. Aethelgard is the hidden royal surname of the Enchantarian Throne. In the mortal world, she went by Lyra Miller, but when the Dean sees her power, he realizes she carries the blood of the Aethelgard line—the only family capable of wielding the "Aura of All."

A brilliant transfer student who views life as a competition. She didn't necessarily love Nikolai at first; she wanted him because he was the "prize" of the campus. She saw Aristella as an easy target because of the girl's quiet nature. Tifanny’s insecurity stems from a need to be the "best" in the room, and she used her position in the student council to isolate Nikolai from anyone she deemed "beneath" them.

Nikolai grew up in a high-pressure household where showing emotion was considered a distraction from excellence. This is why he developed his "nonchalant" persona—he didn't know how to handle someone as "loudly" loving as Aristella. He secretly loved her home-cooked meals because they were the only thing in his life that felt "homemade" and real, but his pride stopped him from admitting it until she was gone.

Aristella comes from a family of modest means; her parents worked hard to send her to nursing school, which is why she refuses to complain about her health. She felt that getting sick was a "weakness" she couldn't afford. Her "obsession" with Nikolai wasn't just about his looks—she saw a moment of hidden kindness in him once and became convinced there was a warm heart behind the ice. She is a "giver" by nature, often neglecting her own meals and sleep to take care of others.

Hana’s protector and ECLIPSE' main dancer. She figured out the secret when she saw Hana crying over a news article about Jin-woo’s "supposed" dating rumor with another idol. She helped choreograph the collab, making sure the movements were just "professional" enough to avoid a scandal but "intimate" enough to satisfy the couple's need to touch.

The only member of CROWN(rapper) who knows the full truth. He acts as the "lookout" during their secret dates. He is the one who purposefully causes "chaos" on red carpets (like tripping or acting loud) to distract cameras if Jin-woo and Hana are standing too close.

Jin-woo was the "Perfect Trainee" who debuted as the leader of CROWN. He carries the weight of his group's global reputation on his shoulders. He met Hana at a music show when they were both rookies, and he fell for her when he saw her practicing her vocals in a dark hallway. He has spent five years being the "shield" for their relationship, often refusing solo opportunities just to stay home and wait for her calls.

Hana is the "Soul of ECLIPSE." While she is marketed as "The Nation’s Pure Sister," she is actually the most daring of the two. She grew up in a strict household and sees Jin-woo as her only true freedom. She wrote the majority of the lyrics for their collab, using actual lines from the letters Jin-woo sent her while he was on his first world tour.

Maya's best friend and ASL interpreter who was the last person to see her alive and harbors guilt about their final conversation.

Teo is Elarie’s senior colleague in the Intensive Care Unit (ICU). He is the person who taught Elarie how to keep her composure during a "Code Blue." Teo doesn’t care about K-pop; in fact, for the first few months, he didn't even know who Ni-ki was. He is the person Elarie leans on when the emotional weight of nursing becomes too much. While Chloe helps Elarie navigate the fame, Teo helps her navigate the pain. He knows Elarie has a "secret boyfriend," and though he warns her that dating a superstar is a recipe for heartbreak, he always swaps shifts with her so she can make it to Ni-ki’s 4 AM video calls.

Chloe is Elarie’s childhood best friend and a rising star in the international modeling scene. She is the only person who truly understands both sides of the secret: she sees Ni-ki at fashion week events and industry parties, and she sees Elarie at home, exhausted from her shifts. Chloe often acts as the "messenger." Since she is a celebrity herself, it isn’t suspicious if she is seen talking to Ni-ki or the ENHYPEN members. She uses her influence to secure "plus-ones" or VIP passes that allow Elarie to be near Ni-ki without anyone questioning why a nurse is at a high-end fashion gala.
