With the close of Leafchange, the temperature rapidly plummets for much of Caido. Torchline and the Oerwoud, with their tropical climates, are still balmy and bright, and the Feverlands sweat out the season whilst Hak Etme blisters in the endless heat. But the rest of the world is blanketed with snow, bringing crisp, cold days and deadly nights. Snowstorms are not uncommon as the winds crest and fall, and keeping light and warmth is a priority for all those who wish to see the end of Longnight in the Hollowed Grounds and Halo. Elsewhere, the dark end to the season is a time of quiet reflection rather than danger.
Character of the Season
Arriving in Caido having been a field medic, neither becoming an ascended, dying, being shoved into the body of a unicorn, nor being brought back to life has stopped Isla Lockwood's desire to help those around her. Now the Overseer of the Hollowed Grounds, Isla walks a fine line between preventing war from breaking out and doing what's best for her ascended-family and her citizens. With one of the fabled relics as her companion and a more than intimate knowledge of the threat facing her people, there are few better suited to lead the resistance against the old-gods.
Congratulations Isla!

What happens when you mix black curls and blue eyes with an easy smile and a child's endless curiosity? Mateo is the best of both his fathers, wrapped in a package of youthful guile and generally covered in dirt.
Personality
curious ● inventive ● morbid
the greatest life grows out of death
Mateo is a child, and thus his personality remains rather amorphous. Curious and innocent, he asks questions in abundance and makes up answers just as easily. Magical thinking means he sees the world as something far more interesting than it is, though he is endlessly in search of the why. Why does it work? Why do we bleed? Why do things die? Why must I eat my vegetables?
