[b]53 | Berlioz Auclair |  He/Him[/b][hr][i]"I will pry the gates to our paradise wide open."[/i][/center][/cell][cell]
[b]Description:[/b]
[indent]The leader of the New Thule Society and one of the former lieutenants to Das Sonnenrad. Occasionally uses the moniker of [b]Neron Corona.[/b]

The younger brother of Auri Auclair's father, Gerard Auclair, had a bitter rivalry growing up as Gerard was seen as the genius older brother. At the same time, Berlioz was just... there. He grew up with a hunger for the level of fame and status his older brother seemed to wield just for being alive, and that hunger led to a thirst for power, however it may manifest. Berlioz's early life was unremarkable, but the kid grew up resenting his family, and such hate can take one down a [i]very[/i] dark. As he grew older, Berlioz became interested in the Nazi ideology, fascism, and extremist ideologies that promised a return to a perceived golden age - most essentially, the idea of a[i] paradise[/i] for his kind. By his late teens, he was rolling with wannabe Nazis, and it wasn't long until his family discovered his views and they disowned him.

Not that he cared (he hated them); Berlioz simply moved on and picked up a normal job as an accountant for a big bank in St. Portwell. As years passed, he became a supervisor and a big wig in the company, and one simple accountant under his wing caught his eye, Nathaniel Thorn. The man was a family man, but one day, he began spouting dog whistle phrases that were music to Berlioz's ear. Seeing that he was receptive, Nathaniel Thorn approached Berlioz and told him that he was forming a new world order, starting in St. Portwell. The Das Sonnenrad Cult aimed to purge St. Portwell of the unworthy and attain supremacy. Attracted by this sense of purpose and promise of supremacy, Berlioz joined Das Sonnenrad and eventually became a top-ranking member through his cunning, intellect, and sheer determination. 

However, Berlioz's ambitions surpassed Kaiser Draeger's... and it wasn't long before Berlioz began plotting against Kaiser Draeger. It was simple: Berlioz thought Das Sonnenrad should use their magic to build their paradise in St. Portwell rather than terrorizing the streets. Berlioz began obsessed with the idea of this "Paradise" as it reminded him of his past goals. In secret, Berlioz built his inner circle within Das Sonnenrad of those loyal to him who believed in his idea of Paradise and were willing to betray Kaiser Draeger. In the meantime, Berlioz bided his time, gathered knowledge of magic, and eventually found himself drawn to one of the artifacts in their possession: The Staff of the Void Priest (one stated to be able to open portals). It was deemed too dangerous for Das Sonnenrad to utilize, so Kaiser Draeger ordered it vaulted away. 

Things began crashing down for Das Sonnenrad when simply put, Kaiser Draeger got too big for his britches and started picking unnecessary fights. The 8th Street and Greenwood Covens began systematically tearing Das Sonnenrad apart, and Berlioz saw the writing on the wall... he grabbed his sect of followers, took the Staff of the Void Priest, and fled Das Sonnenrad. He managed to escape the destruction of Das Sonnenrad and laid low to form his successor to the Das Sonnenrad Cult: The New Thule Society. Berlioz sold the New Thule Society a vision: out there, in the All-Verse, was their White Paradise, a dimension that was rightfully theirs that only an artifact could open the pathway to. 

They just needed to find it.[/indent]

[b]26 | Paige Ingrid Auclair |  She/Her[/b][hr][i]"Magic found us in the battle with the Stygian Snake, but it's up to us to decide how we will use it. I'll use it to carve my destiny."[/i][/center][/cell][cell]
[b]Description:[/b]
[indent]The second oldest of the five Auclair sisters and the defacto second-in-command of the New Thule Society, Paige always lived in her more successful sister's shadow. However, Paige was the one to point out that Auri didn't deserve half of the praise that she received, but she just internalized this jealousy. This got worse, however, when their mother, June Auclair, gave Auri the Butterfly Staff instead of Paige, who felt she rightfully deserved it. Paige ignored their mother's reasoning that it was [i]tradition[/i] for the eldest sister to gain the staff and simply pushed herself to excel in every field in school and prove herself as better than Auri. It all went well. 

Until the Stygian Snake came to St. Portwell, things changed, got tense, and Paige's peers began disappearing or ended up dead far too much for her to brush aside. Then, the Stygian Snake attacked her, initially appearing as an invisible force tearing her to pieces... then the Sycamore Tree Coven, led by [i]Auri[/i] of all people, came to save her. Auri explained what was going on, and Paige said she wanted to be a part of it. Auri provided her with an Artifact: The Shield of Vitality. With the Shield of Vitality, Paige acted as a healer and protector for the Old Coven and saw the Stygian Snake felled. 

Afterward, the Old Coven fell into a mess of drama, and Paige was also a part of the drama. She was openly critical of her sister's leadership, saying she only gained her position due to being friends with Daisy and Ashley. Eventually, Paige got annoyed at it all and up and left the Old Coven; shortly afterward, she went no-contact with Auri and chose her path: going to school for Marine Maintenence. However, there was that creeping interest in magic, and Paige saw no place for her in the mundane work, at least not after the things she saw. The only way she saw herself getting into the world of the Paranormal was through the 8th Street Coven and the Old Coven tormentor Emily. Which she hated because Paige just could [i]not[/i] stand Emily but sucked it up to sate her curiosity for magic. 

However, 8th Street's campaign against Das Sonnenrad began, and during one of their raids of Das Sonnenrad's facilities, she came across her uncle Berlioz. She heard Berlioz Auclair was disowned for his extremist views, but she got his contact information and allowed him to run free. Afterward, Paige gained contact with Uncle Berlioz and listened to his side of the story... and he tempted them with what she wanted: being more than a lackey. However, Paige knew that turning Nazi would be beyond the pale and declined. Das Sonnenrad fell, and things went back to normal and despite turning down Uncle Berlioz’s offer, Paige kept in touch… until she heard a conversation she wasn’t supposed to.

Paige accepted her invitation to The New Thule Society without hesitation, and she always remains at Berlioz's side.[/indent]

Agent - [i]The Shield of Vitality.[/i]
[indent]As far as the New Coven is concerned, Paige's Agent is [url=https://i.imgur.com/AKAkKqW.jpeg]a massive blue tower shield[/url] with two primary magical properties. The primary aspect is that it's virtually indestructible and can tank hits from even the Stygian Snake (even negating their impact)! The other aspect is that, at will, Paige could exude a healing aura in a five-meter range. It normally healed slowly, but it healed wounds incredibly fast in combat. With this combination, Paige used the shield as a weapon and defense in the fight with the Stygian Snake. [/indent]

[b]67 | William Ulysses Lynch |  He/Him[/b][hr][i]"The actions of the subhumans should not have consequences on me or my family."[/i][/center][/cell][cell]
[b]Description:[/b]
[indent]Berlioz's right-hand man, and the Patriarch of the illustrious Lynch Family... or at least, the head of what's [i]left.[/i]

William Ulysses Lynch was born in New Orleans and was built up as the successor of the successful Lynch Family business from the moment he was born. He had everything handed to him, including his wife Mabel whom he loves dearly, and when the time came, he became the head of the Lynch Family when [i]his[/i] father could not. However, the "Family Business" included the fact that the Lynch Family were the rulers of the supernatural scene in New Orleans... and they were famous for being some of the most powerful Necromancers out there, and [i]nobody[/i] in New Orleans, or beyond, dared cross them. Every family of Necromancer in New Orlean answered to them, and whatever the Lynches decreed was law lest whoever disobeyed them suffered a page. 

He ruled New Orleans with an iron fist, and no one dared cast a spell or enter his city without him or a family member knowing. In the meantime, he fostered a massive family of eight sons, six daughters, and [i]many[/i] Grandchildren, and, much like himself, William fostered a successor... then it all came crashing down, and went oh so wrong when a girl named Regina began a massive war between all the necromancer families they were originally underneath the Lynch family. Try as he might, William could not prevent New Orleans's supernatural scene from collapsing. Then, new factions began rising that were not loyal to the pacts and laws set by the Lynch family.

Then the [i]Necromancer Purge[/i] came. 

The purge was begun by a woman named Mary-Louise Black, who was burned by the various necromancer families of New Orleans for years, and every Necromancer in New Orleans was either killed or ran out of the city. The first was the Lynch family, and William watched before his eyes as everything the Lynch family had built for [i]centuries[/i] was burnt down. All of his children (and grandchild) were brutally murdered, and William had no choice but to grab his wife and two of his infant grandchildren and run for the hills. He left a chaotic New Orleans behind, with little to nothing to his name, and was forced to live among the working class he looked down upon. The Lynch Family settled in New Orleans, and William yearned for the golden age and harbored a hatred for the kind of people that ruined his life. 

Then, that yearning and hatred led him to Das Sonnenrad, who tempted William with promises of power and a misguided sense of purpose. He and Mabel joined the Das Sonnenrad Cult, and using their mastery of Black Lux, they were instrumental members of Kaiser Draeger's society. The pair provided the cult with extra footsoldiers that were difficult to kill, but they found themselves drawn to Berlioz Auclair's promises of finding a paradise for people like them. Where the subhumans that ruined their lives would not be able to touch, and the decision to plot against Kaiser Draeger was easy. However, before their plans could come to fruition, the Subhumans ruined everything, and William fled Das Sonnenrad with Berlioz. 

Now, he serves the New Thule Society as one of their most powerful and fearsome members.[/indent]

[b]Description:[/b]
[indent][i]Née Clark.[/i] As far as the world is concerned, Mabel Lynch was William Lynch's childhood sweetheart that he fell in love with. However, the fact that it was practically an arranged marriage is kept secret. So, Mabel grew up as one of the daughters of a celebrity whose father had made a pact with the Lynch Family. One that went unfulfilled to keep himself and his family from being cut down by a horde of undead minions, he gave his eldest daughter away to be married to William Lynch. 

At first, Mabel was against the idea and thought it was horrible that her freedom was swiped from her, but as her father explained that her entire family was at risk, she practically had to force herself to love William. As years passed, she had many children, whom she grew to love far more than her bastard husband, and chose to stay with him for the sake of her family. She also had endless wealth and riches, so she was happy. However, the power dynamic in New Orleans completely changed for the worse, and then the purge began.... she saw the happy family she had created get wiped out in a few nights. 

She fled with her husband and infant grandchildren to St. Portwell, grief overtaking her as he was the only one that she could go to... and saw herself developing some type of feeling for him after all the years. It was alien to her, but he was the only person she could go to. She needed some attachment, as she only had him and raised her two grandchildren as he worked on getting them back to the feared status they had before... and the key to that was Das Sonnenrad, which Mabel was a proud part of. Like her husband, she supplied Das Sonnenrad with undead footsoldiers and then conspired with Berlioz to betray Kaiser Draeger. Then, it all came crashing down when the Greenwood and 8th Street Coven dismantled them, and they fled again. 

Mabel joined the New Thule Society and aims to find Thule to be safe with her grandchildren.[/indent]

[b]Description:[/b]
[indent]Bejamin grew up in a trailer park in the northeastern section of St. Portwell (now Wolfpack territory) as one of many brothers. His father was a lowly fisherman that relied on catching and selling fish, and usually worked all day and all night... and wasn't much of a father as he just wanted to sit down and watch TV and deal with his nagging kids. However, the young Benjamin grew up hungry... for wealth and power. As he grew up, he fell in line with the bad crowds and quickly ended up selling drugs as the only way he could get out of living in a trailer park. Once his parents found out he was selling drugs, he was cast out and forced to live on the streets, where he lived for years. He was angry, hungry, and more... however, in his late twenties, he encountered Das Sonnenrad. 

They allured him with promises of wealth and power, finally being his beacon of hope to get off the streets... and he had no issue with what Das Sonnenrad was, as they aligned with feelings that Benjamin already harbored. As one of the organization's founding members, Benjamin did not rise through the ranks as he was never really a leader and more of a footsoldier, and Kaiser Draeger knew that. Benjamin's ambitions were more than a goon or muscle... and that led him to Berlioz, who promised him a spot as a leader if Benjamin helped him. He wasn't an idiot, but Berlioz got him to assist in his plot against Kaiser Draeger. Berlioz convinced Kaiser Draeger to give Benjamin the abstraction that would change everything, The Phantom Leviathan. After the ritual, Benjamin was the most powerful member of Das Sonnenrad and crucial for Berlioz's plan to overthrow Kaiser Draeger. 

However, the Covens toppled Das Sonnenrad, and Benjamin joined The New Thule Society alongside the rest of Berlioz's followers.[/indent]

[indent]The only other survivors of the Necromancer Purge were only infants when their family was wiped clean off the map. They had no clue of their loss, but the two grew up in St. Portwell, joined at the hip, and unnerving people with their... demeanor. They are called the Twins, usually because they are rarely seen apart. They were not a part of Das Sonnenrad, but Mabel and Willian adjoined them to an Apparition known as the Fell Dragon. They were adjoined as a means of protection and a backup plan if their plans to overthrow Kaiser Draeger went south and Das Sonnenrad came after them. However, after Das Sonnenrad went down, they were brought into the New Thule Society as their abstraction was far too powerful to waste.[/indent]
