Archmaester Marwyn An archmaester of the Citadel, called Marwyn the Mage. A squat, thick man with a bull's neck who studies the higher mysteries that most maesters prefer to ignore. | Member |
An acolyte of the Citadel in Oldtown, slim and dark-skinned with close-cropped black curls, nicknamed 'the Sphinx' by the other students. A gifted archer and quick study who has already forged three links of the maester's chain in a single year, Alleras is in fact Sarella Sand, one of the Sand Snakes of Dorne, living at the Citadel in disguise.

Pate A pink-necked novice of the Citadel in Oldtown, five years a student and still without a single link of his chain. The son of westerlands smallfolk, he tends the white ravens of doddering Archmaester Walgrave and is desperate to win the serving girl Rosey from the Quill and Tankard. He is the point-of-view character of the prologue, in which a man calling himself an alchemist offers him a gold dragon in exchange for a stolen key. | Member |
