• Role: The orchestrator of the ritual.
• Bio: A self-proclaimed adept of chaos magick, Xantho is enigmatic and playful, believing that all meaning is inherently fluid. He views the mystery play as both a game and a high-stakes act of creation. While he appears confident, Xantho harbors a deep fear of losing control, which manifests in cryptic asides to himself throughout the play.

• Role: Protagonist; the anchor of the play.
• Bio: Alethea believes in the power of language to define reality but struggles with the limits of words to capture her inner world. She is haunted by a recurring dream of a library whose books rearrange their contents every time she tries to read them. She joins the ritual hoping to uncover a “primordial language” that can express the ineffable.

• Role: The skeptic and antagonist.
• Bio: Siris views language as a flawed construct that distorts the purity of thought. Cynical yet magnetic, he thrives on dismantling others’ beliefs but secretly fears his own emptiness. He brings to the ritual a fragment of an ancient text he believes holds the key to transcending language, though he refuses to admit he doesn’t fully understand it.

• Role: The heart of the group.
• Bio: Myra communicates in feelings and sensations, often struggling to articulate her emotions in words. Her presence evokes deep emotional responses in others, and she has an intuitive grasp of how feelings ripple through collective consciousness. Myra seeks the ritual as a way to navigate her overwhelming emotional landscape.

• Role: The wildcard.
• Bio: Thane is a shadowy, ambiguous figure who seems to represent the fragmented parts of the other seekers’ psyches. His lines often mirror or distort what others say, reflecting their hidden fears or unspoken desires. It is unclear whether Thane is a separate character, a projection of Logoi, or the personification of the ritual itself.

• Role: A fluid, collective presence.
• Bio: The Chorus functions as both the audience and an active part of the play. They repeat, reinterpret, and amplify the Seekers’ words and actions, creating a feedback loop that alters the course of the ritual. As the play progresses, members of the Chorus step forward to blur the boundary between spectator and performer.

A shimmering, mercurial figure who spins a loom of sentences. It grows tangled when emotions overpower coherence.

A geometric, maze-like construct that shifts and rearranges itself based on the Seekers’ attempts to map it.

A glowing ember of pure feeling, surrounded by an aura of calm. It intensifies when observed but diminishes when spoken about.
