calamity dawning

sabine

born to rich parents (competitive riders) forced into the equestrian world from a young age. had a very dramatic teenage angst phase that never truly left. still not in the best of terms with her parents

born and raised in jorvik

biker girl. i really saw her in those red pants once and was sold

dark riders in my au are chosen by chance as the soul riders are; in short, they harbour the exact same powers but 'corrupted' in the hands of thise who know what to do. most of the time they pick teenagers/early adults with circle skills that have struggles in life or are easy to manipulate into working for them. sabine had both; when she was younger she had no friends and felt as if she belonged nowhere when mr. sands found her

quiet, reserved, aloof, does not really like talking even to jay or katja

actually really likes khaan and finds solace in him

jay

*sighs* jay has so much lore in my au that it ain't gonna fit here but

model/actor, born to rich parents aswell, roots in india, their family breeds marwari horses and are also in modelling/wine business with branches in multiple other fields. even richer than sabine's family. at some point anne overtook their career from which they will always be bitter about

has the hardest time of the three associating with horses, even acerbus. prefers a car to horse any time

the planet 'darkstar' where they're from does not actually exist (anymore! it was destroyed by garnok before it was imprisoned and sent to earth), but is used as a ploy to make them work for dark core. mr. sands & co have been planting false memories to their mind that make them homesick and feel 'wrong' even if there's nothing wrong with them and the closest actual relation they have is to aideen

has an on-off relationship with katja that is not very healthy lol

katja

the closest to 'truly evil' here, katja is a cold and an unforgiving character

her family moved to jorvik after a recommendation from a friend, for katja's ice powers manifested very early, and it became a problem where they were in their home country. she was a weird kid with all kinds of brutal and unkind hobbies, especially concerning little animals she would catch, and obviously had no friends either

is used to manipulate the other two often. she is a compulsive liar and an incredible storyweaver, and for some reason people really find it easy believing her

hates how lisa 'misrepresents' the star, for to her they are dear in their cold distance.
