I just draw out the whole thing and crop like half of it out LMAO bad habit.

in the OG verse, the kids are all adopted by both Caira and Mbk.

Rosa (Rosakya) (Thief / Specter) was first. She and Caira already 'met' each other in the Dream. Caira awakens years before Rosa, and when it was Rosa's turn, she went out to search for Caira. She and Mbk butt heads at first as Rosa came to them during the time Mbk finally settled down with Caira, but they eventually came to an understanding with each other when Mbk had helped Rosa control her Specter powers.

Rosa is quite sensitive in sensing other vari's emotions and finds it to too intense at times, which affects her own feelings and thought processes and leads her to emotional outbursts. She also struggled with controlling her own powers as she disliked the feeling of a Specter's ability to give and take life force.

The first time Rosa acknowledged Mbk as a father figure was a slip-up and just accidentally called him 'dad'. He of course just stares at her in shock like, "Is that how you see me?" to which she admits yes, and they hug it out.

She joins the Order of Whispers first, and once Caira comes back from the Wizard's Tower, joins the Astral Ward.

Vince (Vincent) (Revenant) was found by Mabaki during his solo 'patrol' round in Kessex Hills, specifically in Lychcroft Mere. Vince had managed to escape from a small group of Nightmare Courtier's grasps, wounded. When he arrived at Lychroft Mere, the fungal infection had taken over his weakened state, thus making him very sick.

Mbk likes to make rounds in Kessex Hills in search of the Toxic Offshoots for spores, but had found the sick and wounded sapling barely managing to fend off a forgotten/dormant Risen. Mbk comes in to intervene and, discovering Vince's sorry state, and brings him back home to nurse him back to health. With nowhere else to go, Vince ends up staying with them and thus becomes adopted.

Vince is the calmest and independent of the three kids and joins the Priory later, to follow Caira's footsteps in a way.

Laurane (Guardian) was brought home by Mbk as a helpless Sapling who struggles with keeping focus. They met as Laurane was a recruit for the Vigil that Mbk had to help train (as a group of recruits). Noticing how much she struggled with many things, especially focus and becoming distracted, it had clearly reminded him of Caira's same issue, thus dragging her home in hopes that his wife could help.

Laurane was too 'green' even as a sapling and was adamant she could take care of herself, but Mbk had clearly disagreed judging by the way she acted around others. She had unfortunately not been granted as much knowledge as others from the Dream and it reflected so. Thus Mbk takes on the role of being her mentor and now father figure.

She is the strongest of the three and is very Skritt-brained, and very carefree. Sometimes she forgets her strength and hugs everyone too tight (except Mbk, cuz he can handle that lmao)
