[edit] Fey
[edit] Magnus Bouvier
Beautiful, with waist length, chestnut colored hair and sea green eyes, Magnus was a powerful fey-human crossbreed, with strong powers of glamour and touch clairvoyance and preturnatural speed and strength. Much of his power, however, came from his secret feeding on the blood of Rawhead and Bloody Bones. He was ultimately killed when Ellie, animated and controlled by Anita like a zombie, burned to death in the sunlight while holding his waist. Appearances: Bloody Bones.
[edit] Dorcas Bouvier
Magnus's sister, Dorcas, was cursed, together with Magnus, to remain near their family land and ensure that Rawhead and Bloody Bones remained restrained. Like Magnus, she had chestnut hair and sea green eyes. Unlike Magnus, Dorrie typically used her glamour to hide her startling beauty. With the destruction of Bloody Bones, she was free to take her children and start a new life. Appearances: Bloody Bones.
[edit] Rawhead and Bloody Bones
Apparently based on the folk legend of the same name, Rawhead and Bloody Bones was a fey approximately ten feet tall with a bloody, pulsing head. A children's boggle, Bloody Bones was a true immortal and lived to punish guilty children. He was brought to the US by Magnus and Dorcas's ancestor, who used his blood to make a potion that increased his fey power. After he escaped, he was confined to the ground by the combined power of the available Indian, fey, and Christian magic and remained there until Magnus began using his blood, centuries later.
Ultimately, Seraphina and Raymond Stirling were able to trick Anita into freeing Bloody Bones. However, while Magnus was drawing power from him, Bloody Bones was mortal, and Anita was able to kill him. Appearances: Bloody Bones.
[edit] Mer
[edit] Leucothea (aka "Thea")
The last living siren, and wife of Samuel, Master of the City of Cape Cod. (For mythical allusions, see Leucothea). She and Samuel have three sons (presumably half-human, half-mer): Sampson, the eldest (70 years old with the appearance of a 20-ish young man), and 17-year-old twins Thomas and Cristos.
Appearances: Danse Macabre.
[edit] Perdita (aka "Perdy")
One of Thea's mermaids, she came to St. Louis with Samuel and Thea. Jason "evaluated" her suitability for joining Jean-Claude's group, and the two are dating as of The Harlequin. She is spying on Thea and Samuel's son Sampson to ensure he attempts to develop his potential powers as a siren with Anita's assistance.
