Heroes of the Resistance
Characters in Shining Beyond
Jake Galahad

Jake was born to a Human father, a sellsword from Camelot, and an Elf mother who was a noble warrior. He spent his childhood as an outcast: shunned by humans for his Elven physical prowess, while also condemned by Elves for his ‘tainted’ blood. As such, he frequently experiences conflict between trying his best to be accepted and the fear of further rejection.

At the age of 9, Jake lost his parents to the war started by Emma’s Awakening, was captured, tortured, and subsequently brainwashed into serving as a child soldier for the Crimson Army. He was rescued 3 years later by the Resistance Force, and had to undergo a long, grueling recovery from his mental and emotional scars. Now serving as a knight of the Resistance Force, Jake fights to save others like him from the Crimson Army, hoping to one day take revenge upon Emma, and also against the realm of Arathos for having created this monster.

Olivia Sol’eldur

At the age of 18, Olivia is the youngest captain of the Resistance Force, having survived countless battles since the age of 13. She is of noble descent, a daughter of the House of the Sunfire, though her father’s identity remains a mystery. Like all Sol’eldur, she is distinguished by her bright orange hair and eyes.

Olivia was raised single-handedly by her mother, a famous sword maiden, to continue her legacy of protecting their small kingdom from any possible attack by the Elves. Olivia’s admiration for her mother, and desire to live up to her mother's expectations, are at once the source of both her greatest drive and fear.

Athena Granheim

Fierce, Regal and Invincible. Words which have been used to describe Athena, one of the Arena's greatest champions. Her battle style is the epitome of elegance, and it is said that blades and spears have never once pierced her shields once imbued with her indomitable spirit

Loki and Fenrir

A pair bonded for as long as they care to remember, the demon-fighting cat Loki and her corgi steed Fenrir are heroic 'paw-tners' in crime, travelling the realm in a endless search for opportunities to save those in need (and perhaps, to be remembered in song)

Leon D. Godric

No longer the brash young warrior of his youth, Leon pursues the Dark King to Feldria, where he finds that the danger looming over his homeland is far greater than originally thought. Despite discovering his true lineage, he preserves his adoptive name in his middle initial as a sign of honour and gratitude.

Freya Valeria

Tales of her courageous exploits cemented her title as a Valiant - a protector of the distant realm of Arathos. As peace and justice reign over her homeland, Freya's restless spirit drives her to join her fellow Valiants and the Hero of Arathos in Feldria to spread her legend to lands unknown.
