Ariel Chylde

Title

Ariel Chylde is the Darkchylde. A sweet, innocent, young girl with a kind heart and the cursed ability to summon creatures from the nightmare realm. Abused by her adoptive father as a child, something inside her snapped resulting is his death, and her first summoning. She presents an interesting contrast between her beauty on the outside and the evil she commands within. Since the events covered in the mini-series, Ariel has left Salem in search of herself.

       
   

Perry Stodghill

Title

Ariel's romantic interest. Forced apart by an unfortunate incident in which Ariel assumed the form of Fang, a giant dragon, and killed his father. At present Perry is on his way to college to take up a scholarship and seems unlikely to meet up with his sweetheart again. Yeah right! Perry is a fundamental part of Ariel's motivation and, after meeting Jessica, is likely to go in search of her. There is destiny at work here.

   
       

War

Brought to earth from the nightmare realm by Sage, War serves as Ariel's primary protector. With his formidable size and kind heart, War has become one of the most endearing characters in Randy's ongoing saga.

       
   

Piece

Title

The brains of the War & Piece dynamic. Blessed with a wickedly funny sense of humor and a sweet nature, Piece completes the most thoroughly enjoyable partnership in the history of comic books. That's just my humble opinion of course. It still remains to be seen just how much Piece really knows about Ariel's past. For now, he isn't talking.

   
       

Sage

Title

The manifested spirit of Ariel's mother, Sage acts as an advisor to her daughter and powerful force for good in the nightmare realm. At this point Ariel isn't aware of the relation but, after events in issue #0, the seeds of suspicion may have at least been planted.

       
   

Jeremy Spencer

Title

Jeremy is a mystery at present. He appears to be a young boy who commands the absolute respect of men far superior in years and proportion. One can only assume that he is the possessor of a great power. Perhaps his apparent youth hides an old soul? Only time will tell. For the moment he appears to be on the side of good and has offered Ariel the opportunity to travel with his Carnival of Fools.

   
       

Jack Stodghill

Title

Perry's father and a former agent of paranormal research group, Sentry. He left the organization after helping Ariel escape horendous experiements. Jack died in the fifth installment of the Mini-Series when Ariel, in the form Fang, accidentally fried him. It is this event that forms the core tension between Ariel and Perry.
