Main Characters

J.T. Sabina, and Eric grew up together, and have been friends for their entire lives. Aisling has always been on the outside looking in. Never fitting in, never a part of the crowd. But when the four meet, the have an instant bond. A feeling as if they had known each other for ever – Consanguinity.

🌙 Aisling Gallagher

  • Aisling Gallagher – The new girl in town with visions she can’t explain, drawn into the heart of Nutfield’sconsanguinitymysteries. When Aisling Gallagher arrived in Nutfield, she thought she was just starting over in a small New England town. But from the moment she walked into the high school, the shadows seemed to follow her. Whispers in languages she’s never studied haunt her dreams, and sometimes she sees things others can’t. She tries to blend in with new friends and school routines, but the pull of something ancient and powerful won’t let her go. Aisling isn’t just the new kid in town—she’s the spark that awakens secrets buried for centuries.

🥋 J.T. Walker

  • JT Walker – Loyal martial artist with hidden depth, whose father’s dojo becomes a safe haven—and a consanguinitybattleground. J.T. Walker keeps his emotions locked down tighter than his fists during sparring at his father’s dojo. To most of Nutfield High, he’s the quiet, dependable one, never causing trouble. But behind that calm exterior is a storm he refuses to let out, a storm he’s carried ever since his mother died. His loyalty runs deep, especially to Eric, his best friend, but when Aisling enters the picture, those walls he’s built start to crack. The dojo may teach discipline and strength, but J.T.’s greatest fight might be with himself.

🎭 Eric Michael Wallace

  • Eric Michael Wallace – The class clown with a tragic past, who carries more truth inside him than anyone consanguinityrealizes. Eric  has a grin that can disarm even the strictest teacher, and a joke always at the ready. On the surface, he’s Nutfield’s eternal prankster, the one who turns every classroom into his stage. But the laughter is a mask, hiding the loneliness of a childhood marked by tragedy and cold indifference. Only his closest friends—J.T. and Sabina—see the flickers of the boy underneath, the one searching for where he truly belongs. What Eric doesn’t realize is that the truth he’s been chasing all his life has been chasing him, too.

🔮 Sabina Cassandra Gheata

  • Sabina Cassandra Gheata – Fierce, stylish, and intuitive—Eric’s girlfriend, and Aisling’s unexpected ally. Sabina SabinaCassandra Gheata has always known who she is. Sharp-eyed, unflinching, and dressed to turn heads, she moves through the halls of Nutfield High with a confidence most people only dream of. Her bond with Eric is strong, forged through years of laughter and quiet loyalty, but Sabina is more than just someone’s girlfriend. There’s a fire in her spirit and a mystery in her past that tie her closer to Aisling than either of them expect. Sabina may play the role of the stylish confidante, but when the Veilshard stirs, her strength and intuition prove she’s every bit as vital to the circle as the others.


Supporting Cast

    • Vanessa – A rival who thrives on sharp words and sharper intentions.
    • Mr. Walker (JT’s Dad) – Mentor and dojo master.


The Veilshard Connection

Each of the four main characters carries a shard disguised as an ordinary piece of jewelry or an accessory, unaware at first of its hidden purpose. To the outside world, these items look like keepsakes all disguised as something else. Small tokens of style or sentiment. But in truth, each shard holds an ancient fragment of the Veilshard, a relic forged when the Ancients bound Earth to Elydrion through the ley lines.

Individually, the shards awaken different gifts in their bearers: memory, intuition, strength, and growth. They stir visions, sharpen senses, and create bonds that transcend time itself. Yet only when all four come together can the Veilshard’s true nature be revealed—a conscious relic, alive with the voices of those who came before. In uniting the shards, the characters are not just piecing together an artifact, but stepping into a legacy older than Nutfield itself, one that will demand courage, sacrifice, and trust in one another.
