Samandahl Rey

Roiya (full name Roiya Sintor) is a character from CrossGen Entertainment's Sigilverse. She appears in the Sigil comic series as a major character for several reasons. First, she is Samandahl Rey's friend and former comrade in the army. Second, although she was killed at the start of the series, the mysterious JeMerik saves her mind and spirit making her more than a ghost while not quite real.

[edit] Character Details

Roiya has mid-length brown hair and a narrower face than the other major female character in the series: Zanniati. Roiya is knowledgable military leader and has to take command sometimes when Sam is too busy fighting (or gone).

Spoiler warning: Plot and/or ending details follow.

Roiya is saved from death by JeMerik (who is himself a fragment of Danik) because he falls in love with her spirit. This is most unusual, as none of the other fragments of Danik seem to feel much emotion (though once Wyture says she feels regret). Because of JeMerik's feelings for Roiya, he tells her things which no one else knows. He gives her a very unusual semi-existence thanks to his great power. Although Roiya knows something of Danik's powers and plans, she cannot reveal this information to anyone.

Spoilers end here.
