ELIDOR ALTREVES	DAISY CORONAE	ADDIE IHJAID

Elidor is a senior member of the St. Cecilia troupe. He is twenty-five, and has been a part of the troupe since he was fifteen. He is known to be a stellar actor and usually takes a lead or secondary lead role, though he sometimes elects smaller-known roles to expand the weight of knowledge he has. He is the first person to know Aruz, and the person she trusts the most. He is like an older brother to her, and cares for her deeply, trying to do whatever he can to keep her safe and sound. He is a cynic, stern and sarcastic individual, but everyone in Cecilia knows that it's a front. he warms up around Daisy and Lily the most besides Aruz, having a deep fondness for Daisy in particular, that borders on romantic. He tries to always keep up appearances and is responsible for many street performances that draw crowds to their performances. He is always the one who keeps Aruz close to him; being from a broken family, he feels he can fix what was broken for him and is fiercely protective. She is never let out of his sight and if she isn't in his arms, he's holding onto her hand.	Daisy is a senior member of the St. Cecilia troupe. She is twenty-seven, and became a member when she was only eight. She and Lily were found together by Antross, having run away from their homes together as children. They were raised by the troupe and are well-loved as actresses and 'family' members. Daisy gravitates to roles with great gravitas, that go through great struggle. Daisy is the second person Aruz trusts greatly; she clings to Daisy when she's lost and depends on her when trying to learn about acting at first. She is always a sense of stability for Aruz. She is a kind, nurturing individual, to the point of mothering some older members, too. She is very close to Elidor, and tries to always keep an eye on him, knowing he is prone to his sadnesses and inner frustration, because he feels his roles so deeply. Lily is her best friend and confidante; they have known each other since they were little, and share a very special bond.	Addie is a junior member of the St. Cecilia troupe. She is a ripe old seventy-seven, and works as the troupe's head seamstress. She is in charge of all the costume design and purchases. Having seen her children and grandchildren grow and mature, Addie sought to travel, and thus, became a part of the troupe to see sights and art. She is an avid collector of small trinkets and gains inspiration from reading and researching. She has been in the troupe for only five years. When Aruz is allowed into the troupe, she is sent to Addie first, and Addie treats Aruz like a granddaughter, doting on her and telling her stories as they work. Aruz likes Addie a lot and sees her as an inspiration when she sews and when she's on stage. Addie is cheerful and starry-eyed, but loves to be mischievousness, calling the troupe her 'grandchildren'.
