Exit to the Right ??

I should probably have posted this upfront, but better now than never. In brackets the people I imagined when writing and which I use for the illustrations. If no one is mentioned, think characters from politics past and present.

Nigel, Diane, the Professor (Donald Sutherland) – three witches who maintain a private chat group called UKIP (Uberknowledgeable Important People) while working for their principals.

Matis (Ben Whishaw) – ghostly leader of the Great Hunt. It should be Prince Matis as he is the son of Duke Vlad and Duchess Mathilda, but circumstances had it that he, like his sister Perdita didn't grew up with them.

Justin (Gareth Bale) – shares the lead of the Great Hunt with Matis, rather died before becoming a ghost than to live in a world without his lover and partner Matis.

Hel (Chloe Bennet) – Immortal with her own realm from where she cares for the Tree, plugging the leaves of all living at one time or the other to return them to the well that nourishes the Tree. Daughter of Flo and Wisdom aka Ella.

David – Team Leader of the Tortoise, one of the two big British teams participating in the competitive reality TV show The Game.

Ed, William, Ross (Richard Armitage), Angus (Chiwetel Ejiofor), Macduff (Robbie Coltrane) – Chairs of the National Team Council of the Tortoise.

Boris Maison – London Ward of the Tortoises

Michael – Boris personal advisor

Theresa Maison – wife of Boris

Flo – aka Prince Florizel, Immortal with magical abilities and a perchance for chaos, creativity and mischief. Son of Duke Guthrum. Father of Hel, Autolycos, Jör (a serpent), Sleipnir (an eight-legged horse). Husband of Perdita.

Duke Vlad – leader of the Immortals, owner of a company dealing in ships, ship supply and ocean carrier (officially), benefactor.

Duchess Mathilda (Emma Stone) – leader of the Immortals, worked for a time as domina when she pretended to be dead as punishment for Vlad.

Duke Guthrum – leader of the Immortals, sometimes best friend since childhood of Duke Vlad, media mogul. 

At one moment, Duke Vlad got it into his head that Guthrum and Mathilda had an affair that resulted in Perdita, and that the two tried to kill him. The episode ended in a falling-out between Guthrum and Vlad for more than 30 years after Vlad had Perdita abandoned in the wilderness and put Mathilda on trial. After Mathilda's innocence was proven, she faked her death and that of her infant son Mamillius (Matis). The occurrences surrounding Matis' real death brought the family members and Guthrum back together, just so that the kids could fall out with their parents.

Paulina (Viola Davis) – Immortal, best friend of Mathilda

Autolycos (Eric Johnson) – Immortal, son of Flo and Wisdom, works as celebrity blogger for his grandfather Duke Guthrum)

Security guard (Ian Somerhalder) – at the manor house of Boris and Theresa
