- Charon (The Three Worlds)
The "Charon" are a fictional human species from Ian Irvine's arc of novels, The Three Worlds Cycle.
Characteristics
The Charon are a tall, dark people with purple eyes and are great users of the Secret Art. They are very long lived, as are the Faellem. They were once Mariem and shared the world of Tallallame with the Faellem. But the Faellem saw how the Mariem destroyed their beautiful world with their machines and knew that if they continued that the Faellem would become extinct. So the Faellem got their most powerful mancers together and learnt how to use magical "gates" as the Mariem did, and cast them into The Void. The Mariem quickly dwindled in that horrific place. But they remade themselves. Giving themselves a new name, Charon, after a frigid moonlet at the furthest extremity of the void, they took Aachan from the Aachim(Irvine, 2001). The Hundred, as the remaining Charon became known, dared allow nothing to stand before the survival of their species (Irvine, 2001). While the Aachim were millions, they were too frightened of the Charon to retaliate. The greatest among the Charon, Rulke, eventually opened the path between the worlds, which caused all the major events on Santhenar to happen. Only 3 Charon ever ventured to Santhenar. Rulke the greatest Charon of all; Yalkara: Mistress of Deceits, the Demon Queen; and Kandor: the only Charon to ever perish on Santhenar (about 1000 years prior to "The View from the Mirror").
