Dramatis Personae

Warning: this page contains SPOILERS for all four books.

Here listed are all of the significant characters in DK with a bit of basic information about each, although in a few cases, names have been withheld. (I think I included all the characters, but I'm worried I might have missed a couple.) This page may be a useful reference for those currently reading the book, but regardless, you have been warned.
