castorice
birthday: 11/1
polyxia's twin sister
a lonely girl who has trouble connecting with her peers after her sister isnt by her side daily anymore. she ends up ostracized to some extent by her classmates due to her own standoffish nature as well as people's unwillingness to go out of their way to reach out to her. once she meets phainon and mydei she starts to become more comfortable being alone without having to feel lonely, and walking to the beat of her own drum.
loves any manner of handicrafts, and reading, and any new hobby she can immerse herself in. once she starts to feel comfortable being herself, she drops in on many clubs for a day just to try something new
also loves reading and writing, and likes to bring random volumes of whatever shes reading with her to school in the weeks before prepping to write
polyxia
birthday: 11/1

a frail girl who has been in and out of hospital care most of her life, who runs into phainon and cyrene several times during one of her extended stays.
anaxa
birthday: 8/?
physics and chemistry AND biology teacher at chrysos high school
was blacklisted from every higher ed institution in the area because everyone hates his ass. he lowkey got this position because of nepotism (tribbie) but he genuinely likes teaching high schoolers and it isnt a bad position for him to have.
the year before he was hired there was some drama in the science department and they ended up in desperate need to fill all 3 of these science roles. it helped tribbie's case in hiring this controversial guy
aglaea
birthday: 9/?
history and law teacher at chrysos high school, in addition to being a counselor and on some administrative board for teachers
she has a lot of political enemies and people tend to dislike her for petty reasons regardless of how diplomatically she presents herself
worked her way up the ladder, even though she's very familiar with tribbie. (this is a point of contention for people who want to write off her position as one she got through nepotism)
she isnt the most friendly teacher, but she's very perceptive when it comes to interpersonal dynamics between her students, and pays a lot of attention to detail
cyrene
birthday: 5/5
phainon's adoptive sister
due to her illness, her parents decide to move elsewhere for treatment, leaving phainon behind
her parents are incredibly overbearing and send her to a private school as soon as she starts to recover from her illness
hyacine
birthday: 6/26
student intern at the nurse's office, and one of anaxa's former students
knows the aglanaxa lore
cipher
