Luca Scorda­to ; an Illu­sion­ist — 1320–1700

A rel­a­tive­ly young and entire­ly stub­born Immor­tal­ist that want­ed to prove that he could do more with his gift than was pos­si­ble.

Immor­tal­ists do not con­trol fate. We only con­trol time. And some­times, we don’t even do a very good job of that.”


Wilsa Schuttman ; a mor­tal — 1320-???

Luca’s only friend. She did every­thing to pro­tect Luca after he for­got him­self, and led him through every life as per Luca’s desires, and she did so will­ing­ly, know­ing she may nev­er have Luca as he once was.

You see a day in the blink of an eye, Luca. I do not. I see it for what it is, for the only thing it can be.”

 

Leonar­do Soran­zo ; a Mag­is­ter — ???-???

As a Mag­is­ter, Leonar­do had an unre­mark­able con­trol over Time and Life. He took Luca in as an appren­tice when he dis­cov­ered the boy’s gift as an Immor­tal­ist. Most of his life  — such as his age, his pur­pose for Luca, or the rea­son he dis­ap­peared from their lives with­out a word — is an unan­swered ques­tion.

Time does not die, time can­not die. It will go on, for­ev­er, and the only thing you or I can do is be there, with it, for as long as it will allow us.”
