Dawnwalker characters

Mert

Mert is a man held prisoner at Stoneward Post for working with the Manumits. Reach him in time during The Firebrand or he is executed, and freeing him opens the rebel storyline.

Mirto

Mirto is Coen's younger brother, eight years old. Once a quiet boy, he has grown restless as his parents drifted away, and he is taken with the family after Laslea's uprising.

Neberu

Neberu is a character Coen can meet and speak with. Very little about Neberu is documented yet, but the wiki lists Neberu as one of the few known Dawnwalkers.

Nish

Nish is a vrakhir hiding in Svartrau whom you track down in Lacra's side quest A Friend Like This. You have to win the first fight, but you can talk Nish down instead of killing.

Ocha

Ocha is an Uriash from Clan Bakr who picks a tavern brawl with Coen in Svartrau. Beat her and she asks for help with Andrei, which opens The Heart Wants What It Wants.

Pieter

Pieter is Coen's father, a retired sellsword turned silver miner. He taught Coen to fight, and he is taken with the rest of the family after Laslea's failed uprising.

Rena

Rena is the woman at the mill who points Coen toward Stoneward Post in The Firebrand. Play along and she quietly tells you Mert is held there for working with the Manumits.

Saint Mihai

Saint Mihai is a revered saint of Vale Sangora. The church says he slew a dragon, but finding out who he really was drives the quest A Monk and a Saint.

Sanzhani Tsarina

The Sanzhani Tsarina is a moth-like fairy who rules the Sanzhani burrow and carries Coen's secret messages to Lunka. Her quests start with Good Home in the Svartrau Outskirts.

Sheema

Sheema is a goddess worshipped by the ancient Arimaspians, the valley's first people. You learn about her through lore found in ruins and tombs across Vale Sangora.

Skender Dragosti

Skender Dragosti was the cruel human Knyaz of Vale Sangora before Brencis. His tyranny made it easy for Brencis to play the savior and win the people over.

The Matriarch

The Matriarch leads the Bakr clan, the Uriash who live hidden in the mountains. You reach her with Lacra in Song of the Mountain, and afterwards she sells witchcraft skill manuals.

Tobias

Tobias, the one-armed monk, was Saint Mihai's travelling companion. The church made him a saint too, but the truth behind his fame is far darker.

Tonis

Tonis is Heile's brother, a coal burner living alone in the woods. In Good Home you track him down so he can decide whether his sister stays with the Sanzhani.

Vasil

Vasil is Coen's neighbour in Laslea and the village troublemaker. He is the target of the prologue quest Someone Needs a Lesson, and you can run into him again after Laslea falls.

Vicho

Vicho is a gentle vampire who lives alone in Svartrau and runs Vicho's Emporium. He fights his own hunger, dislikes Brencis, and holds the key to a hidden ending in A Study in Crimson.

Vladimir

Vladimir is a friend of Coen and Pieter from Laslea and a member of the Manumits. In the prologue he plans to strike back at Brencis, and the rebel storyline picks up from his hut.

Volk

Volk is a blind old former mercenary who fought alongside Pieter. Once he works out who Coen is, he offers to share stories of their sellsword days.

Xanthe

Xanthe is the oldest of Brencis's Boyars. She rules the southeast of Vale Sangora, where she digs up ancient secrets for Brencis's army and raises his Blood Guards.

Yanna

Yanna is Coen's sister and the eldest daughter. She keeps the family going and looks after Mirto and Lunka whenever Coen and Pieter are away.

Zdislav

Zdislav is the wise old alderman of Laslea, Coen's home village. He is a lore figure from The Secret History of Vale Sangora whose diary warns the young about the valley's dangers.
