Emily Glover: A little girl who walks through dreams. Used to be friends with Reggie before a terrible fire.
Reginald Terlinger: A self-hating party clown who's good with his hands and shockingly good at mimicry. Used to be friends with Emily before a terrible fire caused him to believe her dead.
Oswald Terlinger: His brother, the creator of Ringo the Walrus, an extremely successful children's show.
Ridley Rhye: Reggie's roommate, a short engineer who works for Vespcorp, a massive global security firm.
Phineas Cain: Owner and CEO of Vespcorp. Generally really creepy.
Charley: The leader of a faction of the Oneiros, a cult that worships the god of dream. He travels with and watches over Emily in the real world.
Guile: A former member of the Children of Phant, who worship the god of Nightmare, and a noted tech wiz. Travels with Emily in the real world.
King: A mute with a photographic memory. He is the Scribe, and travels with Emily in the real world.
Cera: Genetically engineered assassin, the most devout of the group. Left the organization who made her when she was beckoned by Relsus in a dream. Travels with and protects Emily in the real world.
Relsus: The god of dream. A one-armed, one-eyed purple cnidarian creature. Recruits Emily to stop the Sandman.
Phant: The god of Nightmare. Like a cloaked, rotten hornet. Recruits Reggie to stop the Sandman.
Sandman: An old cyborg who has retreated into self-imposed exile in the Barrier between dream and reality. Appears to be causing dream avatars to drift from the barrier, drained of all psychic energy, their real world counterparts left comatose.
SAAND: The servant of the Sandman. A collection of self-aware nanites which has been roaming both Dream and Nightmare, absorbing the landscape into itself.
buckets: A mysterious being that seems to only exist occasionally. Knows more than it should. Likes mustard on clam shells.
Icksys: The sycophant of Relsus. A secretary with a classy suit and a hole where his head should be.
Kayar: The sycophant of...Phant. A white java sparrow with piercing white eyes. A worrywart and a coward.
Obelus: A scavenger of the Rueldol Barrens. Her left eye shows her brother Ampersand everything it sees. She constantly looks for nice things to show off to her brother to make him feel jealous.
Ampersand: A vomute herder on the coast of Pelgavyx. His right eye shows his sister Obelus everything it sees. He constantly looks for disgusting things to make her sister look at to aggravate her. His personal favorite is butthole plants.
Captain Beardbeard: Captain of the Poropas, a wooden ship crewed by a somewhat unconventional crew. Even so, he is a child's idea of a pirate. Or so he claims to be.
Kotikakt: A wooden robot among the robotic refugees that power the Poropas. He replaced himself piece by piece with wooden equivalents. It is rumored he keeps the old parts in a chest. Very old, he remembers the time before the Barrier.
Minister Slaufist: Leader of the Builders of the Heavenly Tower. His cult builds a frozen tower of debris and prisoners to try to get to heaven. But sadly it melts every summer.
Tor CMLXIII, Keeper of Maan Torre: The sole remaining inhabitant of the Tower Maan Torre. His robots do his bidding, and he is loathe to anyone who does not entertain him. Anyone who fails to make proper homage to him is cast off the top of his tower to the marshes below.
Rossumark: One of two robot lords that live in the marshes at the base of the Tower. He wishes to build an army to destroy Tor and his tower, salvaging any robots still loyal to Tor as scrap.
Karalkapek: The other robot lord, a pacifist. He wishes to leave the marshes in search of better lands to live in.

Oh we're floating, west and east, we go floating, free and released from the hands that gave us flight, hands too little to hold on tight, now we float forever in and out of sight.
It wasn't so much the music, or the rain that started to fall. The miracle part of Woodstock, was that peace could happen at all. Peace could happen at all! Heard they tried it again, but me and my string feel you can't relive a one-time thing.
So we're floating (floating!), south and north, we go floating (floating!), backwards and forth, 'cause of hands that gave us flight, hands too little to hold on tight, now we float forever, in and out of sight!
At Buffalo Bill's Wild West Show, where the child is noisy and wild, I bobbled above the grand stand, from the sticky hand of a child. When Bill waved to the crowd, twas fine fun until, that small hand that held me waved to Bill. He waved to Bill!
Now we're floating (Floating!), west and east, we go floating (Floating!), free and released from the hands that gave us flight, hands too little to hold on tight, now we float forever in and out of sight.
The circuses, fairs, and boardwalks, and all the special places we've been; we all have our tales to tell you, and all the time in the world to tell them in!
So come floating (Floating!), east and west, it's like walking (Floating!) after the best. Come and join our endless flight from hands too little to hold on tight! Now we float forever, in and out of sight! Float with us forever, in and out of sight!
