The Gwethil Original Characters
The Gwethil write – in the main – fanfiction, but the desire to write fiction that expands upon and genuinely goes further than the original has seen the creation of more than a few original characters (OCs), a few of which we present here. Rather than present all the original characters (which would be nigh on impossible, as there are probably literally hundreds of them of one sort or another - although most of them are probably just one-line servants, waitresses and victims) we have concentrated on the main ones, the ones which vie with the canon characters for “screen time” and importance to the story.
Although each character is the creation of a single member of the Gwethil, we are an egalitarian bunch and we tend to "borrow" each other's characters to a certain degree. If that has occured, it has been noted in the description of the character.

Stella Bodine and Dean Winchester: a match made in Heaven, or possibly Hell depending on your perspective.

But that changed when she met Dean – when she met him, Stella did more than get her groove back, she met her soul mate. The relationship got off to a bit of a rocky start because they’re both so similar, but they managed to work it out with minimal bloodshed.

Quote : "Chill out, Blondie Bitch."

Heather isn't entirely sure how she wound up with three friends who were fantasy nuts, but she manages to find herself loving them nonetheless. She had passable interest in the phenomena of Legolas appearing at Dawnsend academy, but her world was rocked when she was sent to Middle Earth and found herself in close company with Haldir, the arrogant March Warden himself. She takes it upon herself to completely annoy the Elf, whether by calling him an assortment of unflattering nicknames or just being irritating. She aims to be a chemist, and she is very smart, though it often doesn't show in her actions and speech. She loves fashion a great deal, and always makes a point of looking fabulous, whether in her boring black uniform at Dawnsend or under her labcoat in the laboratory. |  |

Now nearing the age of retirement, Ronan finds in Campbell the peace he was searching for...when he isn't being dragged into one adventure or another by the Rafferty siblings.

A hard-working police detective who ran for mayor to better protect his people, Tom Farrell is, like an astonishing number of Campbell residents, a reincarnation of someone in Middle-earth.

Quote : “The truest virtue is freedom, and only the Truth can set you free.”
Created by: Darknight & Merc
Relatively recently appointed to the College of Cardinals, Raymond Griffin is an American and perhaps does not understand the politics of old Europe as well as he might.

Favorite song : Kyrie by Mr. Mister
Created by: Darknight
Written initially as a "thank you" to Almyra for her tireless help on "The Redemption of Sulva", Evangeline was originally intended to be nothing more than a minor character and an "in joke". However, she swiftly grew into a means to make a number of important comments on the nature of faith, Christianity and friendship. She is also slated to have a significant role in the third story in the Elizabeth Trilogy. Evangeline is "played" by Tea Leoni, as she looks a lot like Almyra. |

Name: Bronwyn Suzette Harris
Fandom : The Lord of the Rings
Appears in : The Champions Series
Quote : “I appreciate that you loved Arwen, but here's something you need to appreciate: I'm not that woman. I may be her reincarnation, but I'm not Arwen, and you need to accept that.”
Created by: Lady Deb
Bronwyn was seven years old when her mother was murdered in front of her, and that trauma pushed Bronwyn to her career as a child's advocate. While the police seek to prevent such things from happening again, Bronwyn has made it her life's work to ensure that children can be heard when they are victims. Such a case brought her to Campbell and led her to set up a practice there. While she grows to love the town and its people, she tries to keep her distance from Gavin Rafferty. She remembers her life as Arwen Undomiel, and has no interest in reigniting the passionate love between Aragorn and Arwen. . .or does she? |

Name: Arianna Hunter
Fandom : Stargate: Atlantis
Quote : (defending Rodney McKay) “He may be a tactless, paranoid, anti-social jerk….but he’s MY tactless, paranoid, anti-social jerk and I love him. So you best be findin' someone else to listen to your complaints.”
Created by : Melanie
Initially intended for Major Evan Lorne, Arianna has instead decided to latch on to Dr. Rodney McKay. The Irish/Scottish cousin of Dr. Carson Beckett, Arianna is head of a program on Atlantis designed to give each off-world team a medic that is well trained in combat. As a former Air Force doctor, she fits the role perfectly. Her relationship with McKay is, of course, extremely frictional. Because…..well, he’s McKay. Because of her ability to irritate him as much as he irritates her, she eventually earns his respect and vice-versa. It’s Arianna’s love of music (just about any kind) that truly defines her. When she’s not on duty, she can often be found in the Atlantis rec-room, playing the piano that John Sheppard somehow managed to get the SGC to ship them, or on one of the balconies with Sheppard, where he teaches her guitar. |  |
Name: Idrial
Fandom : The Lord of the Rings
Appears in : "What Heals One Wound", first story in the Haldir Trilogy
Quote : (to Haldir) “Proper elleths bore me. And they bore you as well, so please do not begin to lecture me.”
Created by : Melanie
Actually plucked from the video game ‘Lord of the Rings: The Third Age’, Idrial has basically been expanded upon by Melanie. The niece of Lord Erestor of Rivendell, she resides in Lothlorien and seems to take odd pleasure in going against the conventional role of elleths. It is perhaps the fact that she is Unconventional that enables Haldir to regard her as one of his few female friends. Her father Valandil and her brother Aranel have seen to it that she is well-trained in combat. Only Haldir and Legolas can outshoot her with a bow and only Haldir has ever bested her in close combat. Her weakness, however, is her desire to be so much like her best friend, Arwen. When she is sent on a mission to help a mysterious stranger from Gondor, will she try to emulate the choices of the Evenstar? The wrong choice could mean her downfall...and the destruction of Haldir. |  |
Name: Jonathan
Fandom : Narnia
Appears in : "The Land of Make Believe"
Quote: “Then, sir, we will give them the bayonet!”
Created by: Almyra
Sent from the destroyed Narnia to guide the High King and the Just King through the Land of Make Believe, Jonathan is a prophet of sorts and is above all things supremely faithful to his Lord, Aslan. A former Narnian army officer, he can be difficult, exacting, and secretive, and he relates far better to children and their simplicity than to adults and their complexity. A brilliant tactician and daring strategist, he expects others to be as doggedly persistent and deeply disciplined as he is himself, and despite the danger, he is exactly the man to see Peter and Edmund and their families safely Home. |
 | Name: Aidan Kenobi
Fandom : Star Wars
Appears in : "Out of the Ruins, Out of the Wreckage"
Quote : “My grandfather was called the Negotiator. I'm not my grandfather!”
Created by: Lady Deb
In his mid-forties when the Four were sent back in time, Aidan bears little physical resemblance to his grandfather, High General and Jedi Master Obi-Wan Kenobi. However, he did inherit his grandfather's stubborn streak and his determination to protect those who couldn't protect themselves. Had things gone differently in his universe, Aidan might have pursued the mutual attraction he felt for Merit Solo. Two other characteristics Aidan shares with his legendary grandfather are his devotion to duty and his devotion to duty and his willingness to sacrifice himself to protect others. But one thing he will not willingly sacrifice is his daughter, Amidala. |

Name: Amidala Kenobi
Fandom : Star Wars

Quote : “I don't know what's scarier. . .what a dolt Anakin Skywalker was or finding out that my great-grandfather was a real dish when he was young!”
Created by: Lady Deb
As Aidan's daughter and padawan, Ami learned a great deal from him and the other remaining Jedi before the Great Reset. Eleven years old when the Four went back, Ami and her father arrived on Corellia with her father, several years after Thane and Merit Solo's arrival at the Jedi Temple. There, the Kenobi father and daughter team met a young ragamuffin named Han Solo, destined to become the grandfather of Ami's mother figure, Merit. In order to protect both Ami and Han, Aidan takes the two children to Kashykk, the Wookie homeworld. As Ami's power within the Force grows, so does her certainty: in order to prevent the bloodshed that is to come, sacrifices must be made. But is she strong enough to make the most necessary sacrifice of all? |
 | Name: Aravyn Kenobi
Fandom : Star Wars
Appears in : "Storm Clouds May Gather"
Quote : “By the Force, Luke! Why are you always such a whiny baby?!”
Created by : Melanie
A persistent character who would not be denied her existence unless Melanie wanted to go batty, Aravyn Sola Kenobi is the daughter of Obi-Wan and Padme Amidala. To say she was….unexpected is probably the understatement of the century for her parents. As a Force-sensitive, she is trained along with her half-brother Luke in the ways of the Jedi by their father. Her passionate nature comes from her mother, her wry humor from her father, and her patience from both of them. Aravyn’s little quirks have often been a source of amusement/despair for Obi-Wan, such as the time she requested that her lightsaber be a ‘rainbow’. Fifteen during the events of Star Wars: A New Hope, Aravyn manages to make her own impact on the drama that begins to unfold. |

Created by : Cath
An innkeeper on the off-season, this spy has what he likes to think is a mysterious past. It is unknown who he spies for, and really, who he's spying on, but that just might be proof of his abilities. Able to speak seven languages and integrate himself in almost any social class, he really only does anything if he finds it interesting. He's a companion of Astraia Caspian and Jin as they race to take the magical book the Draycillys to safety. He is a consummate charmer, and flirts with beautiful women wherever he goes. He's also something of a pathological liar, though it is unclear if he does it for personal gain or if he gets a kick out of fooling people. |  |

Quote : “This could be expensive . . . ”
Created by: Darknight & Merc
The only daughter of Dominik Kristatos and the heir to the Kristatos Factory, Cleopatra was never going to be a girly girl. Her first toys were nuts and bolts, her first playroom the greasy echoing space of the Factory and her first playmates her father's mechanics. As the years have passed, she has grown into not only an accomplished mechanic but a beautiful woman - and it is both of these things which attact her fiance. |  |

Quote : “Aravyn, your father taught me that there are some things which are just worth pursuing, no matter the cost. I think he might have been meaning you.”
Created by : Melanie
Jeran Lars is the son of Owen and Beru. He is a year older than Luke Skywalker and, unlike his cousin, is not a Force-sensitive. Despite his father's irritation and annoyance at his son's choice of friends, Jaren is a constant companion of Obi-Wan Kenobi. His association with the Jedi Master is perhaps down to his desire to learn more about the wider galaxy beyond Tatooine - or perhaps simply to spend time with Kenobi's daughter, Aravyn. Despite her irritation at his earnest pursuit, Jaren has proven to be a tenacious suitor. What will come of this remains to be seen . . . |

Created by: Darknight
A former member of the Vatican Swiss Guard, Toby LeGuin was recruited by Susan Pevensie for her organization shortly after the fall of the N.I.C.E. But, depending on whether a particular train crashed or not, he either became her chauffeur and bodyguard, or one of her Dark Apostles. In either case, his loyalty is without question and he is a fighter without peer. |

Appears in : "Persuasion of the Swan Princess"
Quote : “I hear that in Rohan, my lord, willful fillies are swiftly broken.”
Created by : Angoliel
Perhaps technically-speaking an OC, Lothiriel is the Queen of Rohan after the events of "The Lord of the Rings" - but she has no lines in the story and never appears in either the book or the film. A proud and sophisticated woman, she was married to King Eomer for political expediency and initially does not love her husband. But, as time passes, that may change . . . |  |

Appears in: "Consequences", as-yet-unamed Usaki origin-story by Darknight, mentioned in "The Rule of Two" and "Storm Clouds May Gather"
Quote : “Are the Jedi not taught to listen to their feelings?”
Created by : FireMaiden
Vandalyn didn’t set out to take on Jedi Master Qui-Gon Jinn as her lover, but sometimes the Force moves the Universe in highly unlikely ways. She learned – and she taught Qui-Gon – that it is possible to be a Jedi and still feel complex emotions like love. She teetered on the edge of the Dark Side after Darth Maul killed Qui-Gon, but Qui-Gon’s Force Ghost helped her remain centered and whole.
Vandalyn's relationship with Qui-Gon has been treated as semi-canonical by Darknight for his Star Wars series of stories. |  |

Created by: Darknight & Merc
The niece of the Japanese ambassador to the Court of Versailles of His Royal Majesty the Most-Christian King of France Louis-Phillipe XVII, Lady Murasaki is an accomplished 'mech-warrior and a powerful politician in her own right. But it is perhaps her beauty and grace - and not her 'mech Hagane-Kochou, Steel-Butterfly - that give her the true power, for the King has his eye on her for reasons other than her utility in war. A friend of Lady Jane Gray and Lady Monica Hunyadi, she quickly becomes involved in the Reconquête Français du Pierre led by Vladimir Hunyadi. |  |

Created by : FireMaiden
One of the “quiet ones you need to watch” Artemis didn’t start many fights when she was at Hogwart’s, but she certainly finished them. And she did it with typical Slytherin panache. After having a crush on Severus Snape for a long time, Artemis finally managed to get Severus to ask her out. They stayed a couple for many years, until Severus’ unrequited feelings for Lily Evans eventually destroys their relationship, and she left him. Artemis, however, never stopped loving Severus and in the final confrontation between Voldemort’s forces and the rest of the wizarding world, that love makes all the difference. |  |

Palomnus the faun was first introduced to Peter and Edmund on the eve of the Battle of Beruna. He volunteered to attend them as their aide-de-camp and made certain both boys were ready to face the Witch and her army that morning. Following the restoration of Narnia at Cair Paravel, it became apparent that while fond of both kings, Palomnus held a special regard for Peter. He was eventually asked to serve as the High King’s sole valet and aide, and he fulfilled his duty faithfully and well throughout the Golden Age, even going as far as travelling with Peter on his many military campaigns. |  |

A beautiful demi-goddess who chose to save Boromir and transport him to modern Earth, Pelagia has revealed herself to only two mortals: Boromir himself and the reincarnation of Gimli, Ronan Daly. Not even her Campbell Champions (the Rafferty sisters and Elena Gutierrez) have ever seen the entity who has pledged herself to their protection, and the protection of those they hold dear. While time does not move in a linear fashion for Pelagia and her brethren, she has still learned from the mistakes of others who have brought warriors of the past into the present. Powerful though she is, Pelagia cannot see the future clearly. She can only sense that something terrible is coming. . .and hope that her Champions will be strong enough to defeat it. |

The wife of Peter Pevensie in "The Redemption of Sulva", a force for evil in "The Land of Make-Believe" and a powerful witch in both tales, Bronwyn is a complex character who is – for a time – poorly understood by her husband's family. Her redemption and journey to the light is a major theme of the second part of "The Redemption of Sulva" and enables the story to explore a number of important questions concerning religion which Lewis raised in “That Hideous Strength”. |

Formerly a nurse and now the wife of Peter Pevensie and the mother of their three children, Meg is tough, absolutely fearless, sometimes a bit severe, bossy, and outspoken (the kind who will give you the bird if you cut her off in traffic), but also practical, organized, efficient, generous, kind, funny and absolutely someone you want, and are proud to have, on your team.

Edmund Pevensie's wife and the mother of his son, Maureen is the sort of person with whom one has a cup of tea and chats the afternoon away. If you need help, she will give it gladly, and she considers her specialties listening and offering comfort - sometimes advice.

Quote : “I'm a pre-med student, not a brain surgeon!”
Created by: Lady Deb
The youngest of Pelagia's Champions, Kristin was Boromir's first contact upon arriving in modern times, and it was she who alerted her older sister Megan and Elena to his presence. She also played an instrumental part in convincing the pair to return to Campbell with the displaced warrior. A pre-med student with an interest in general practice, Kristin is frequently impatient with what she views as stupidity, and often fails to take things into consideration. |

Marine Gunnery Sergeant (retired) Gavin Rafferty has spent nearly his entire life protecting others. . .his family, his unit, his country and beyond.

 | Name: Aubrey Raston
Fandom : The Lord of the Rings
Appears in: "The Fresca Files"
Quote : "I blame it on the Fresca."
Created by : Cath
Fandom was in Aubrey's blood. Raised by two dedicated fans of fantasy, and Tolkien in particular, Aubrey continued the tradition, being a fangirl of Legolas in particular. When an accident involving a can of Fresca and an electrical outlet in her dorm at her boarding school causes Legolas to materialize in front of her, Aubrey takes full advantage of the situation. An aspiring writer and something of a daydreamer, she soon finds herself falling in love for real with the handsome elf, much to her chagrin, as Fresca has a habit of popping Legolas between worlds at random. Aubrey is smart, and loves nothing more than to spend an evening watching some bad movie with her friends. She firmly believes she will one day publish a book, and she is quite vocal in her likes and dislikes in regards to literature and movies and music. |  | Name: Meredith "Merry" Reynolds
Fandom : The Lord of the Rings, Pirates of the Caribbean
Appears in: "The Fresca Files"
Quote : "ROBESPIERRE!"
Created by : Cath
Merry is, to put it bluntly, completely insane. It took awhile for the Fellowship of the Fanatics to warm up to her, as her antics were rather odd and off-putting until they got to know her. She is the one who dubbed the five friends with the moniker of the Fanatics, though Julie and Heather could care less about fantasy and Lord of the Rings. Not only did she take great delight in Legolas' appearance at Dawnsend, but when she tried to send Legolas and Aubrey on their honeymoon to Middle-earth, she instead was sent to the pirate ship the Black Pearl, and found herself hobnobbing with Will Turner, Commodore Norrington, and of course everyone's favorite pirate Captain Jack. She and Jack get along famously, causing mayhem and hilarity, but Will greatly dislikes her, due to an incident in Tortuga involving his manhood. Commodore Norrington is sort of afraid of her, until she starts being her annoying self and they quite often bicker worse than Haldir and Heather. However, Merry bickers for the sole reason that it amuses her. She is a history teacher in training, certain to strike terror in the hearts of teenagers everywhere. |  | Name: Rhoswen of Anfalas

Very much the granddaughter of Leia Organa-Solo (ie, headstrong/willful), Merit is in her late twenties at the time of the Great Reset, one of the youngest members of the Four Travelers. She goes back in time for one purpose and one purpose only: to avert the heartbreak and bloodshed of both Jedi Purges and the falls of the Republic. Falling in love never entered into the picture.

Name: Major Tierra Jael Whitney, USMC (usually known as TJ)
Fandom : Stargate: SG1
Appears in : "A Brilliant Disguise"
Quote : (to Shu, a Goa'uld) "I will only kneel before the one true God and, last time I checked, He wasn't in the habit of forcing people to do so."
Favorite Song : Consume Me by DC Talk
Created by : Melanie
TJ is, technically, Melanie's first OC. Assigned to the SGC as the second in command of SG23, TJ receives her field training with SG1. She is initially very open in her immediate dislike of Daniel Jackson, but when the two are captured off-world by a Goa'uld the SGC has never dealt with before, a bond of friendship is formed through their ordeal, which later blossoms into romance. Full of contradictions, TJ is more than able to take care of herself in hand-to-hand combat and can disassemble and reassemble a P-90 faster than anyone else on her team. Yet, when she has down time, she is most usually found classic Hollywood films, especially musicals, or her favorite romance film 'Somewhere in Time'. Much to Daniel's chagrin, she is quite enamored of the young James Garner and he has often found himself thrown over for a viewing of 'The Rockford Files' or 'Support Your Local Sheriff'. |
