Winter (208x263, 37K)

Personality and background:
Winter is the leader of a pack of moonlight wolves, which are the counterparts of the nightmarish shadow wolves. Winter is the first dream creature to find Ariana when she first arrives in the Dreamworld, and they eventually become good friends. Winter is dignified, calm, comforting, and protective, taking it upon himself to guide Ariana and her friends and aid them in their quest to find out why they are in the Dreamworld, and how to get home. Winter has interesting ways of addressing people; for example, he calls Xeth "flightling," and he sometimes refers to Jessie as "girl-human." Ariana, however, he almost always calls "she-cub."

Xeth! (250x316, 32K)

Personality and background:
It's Xeth! Xeth is possibly my most popular character so far. He's already got at least three fangirls, one of them in another country! O_o Heehee, but he's a cutie. Xeth is a fairy—er, that is, a pixant (a male pixie; pixants think "fairy" and "pixie" are sissy names; Xeth is very touchy about this). A light-hearted little prankster with a definite streak of mischief, Xeth is, however, very fierce in defending his friends and standing up for what he believes. That is, if you can ever get him to stop zipping around in the air and laughing at people! Xeth has a wonderful sense of humor and a sharp wit, and he's also very persistent (and sometimes annoying). Xeth becomes particularly good friends with Jessie; he's the first dream creature she meets in the Dreamworld.

Personality and background:
Kendalie is a very timid person, but a very powerful dream. Her one major fault is her complete lack of self-confidence and her incredible shyness. When the story's heroes are first transported to the Dreamworld, she comes across Robert and follows him secretly for a time, curious about who he is and where he is from. She may even have a little crush on him...how cute! ^_~ However, danger awaits Robert in the Dreamworld. If and when it finds him, will Kendalie dare to follow? How much interest does she really have in these strange teenagers from another world, and how much is she willing to risk for them?
