[edit] Night Stallion

He rules the nightmare land inside the Gourd. Also known as Trojan and The Horse of Another Color. He does not (possibly cannot) leave the Gourd himself, but sends the Night Mares to deliver nightmares to dreamers. Smash Ogre fought with him to regain his soul in Ogre, Ogre after trading it for Tandy's, which she had lost by trickery earlier.

She was introduced in Ogre, Ogre and then seen in Night Mare. She was the last of the Nextwave Kings. After her death she reemerged as a Day Mare. She becomes a tree nymph in Faun & Games.

[edit] Mare Juana

[edit] Mare Nectaris

In Isle of View, Chex Centaur was forced by the demon/cloud Fracto to land on Mare Nectaris' section of the moon. Mare Nectaris and Night Stallion helped Chex escape by crafting a dream so sweet that it disgusted Fracto.

[edit] Bones family

[edit] Marrow Bones

Marrow first appeared in Vale of the Vole, where he helped in defeating the demons who mangled the curves of the Kiss-Me-River. Marrow then reappeared in Heaven Cent as Dolph's adult copanion.
