STORIES
CHARACTERS
The Emberstone Universe is full of a variety of characters that are easy to love (or hate)! In case you’d like to get to know them a little bit better, here’s some information on each of them. I’ve got them appearing in stories even if they are only mentioned. Entries are in order by first appearance. All stories are (or will be) available to read on Havok (www.gohavok.com), so click on the link to be directed there. There may be one or two stories that don’t make it to Havok, and if that’s the case, they’ll be stored here on this site.
