NPC Roster:

• Zen Garden (they/them): A student made entirely of rock and dirt - one of Crash’s challengers for Class President, though definitely not a frontrunner.


• Creeping Ivy (???): Old enemy of the Green Knight legacy - an insidious, strangling creature of vines whose promises are poison.


• Niles Berman (she/her)/Pharrolax the Eternal (she/her): Niles was a mild-mannered archaelogist; Pharrolax was the cat-god-queen ruler of an alternate ancient Egypt. When the Amulet of Sekhmet-Ka-Ra transferred Pharrolax’s essence into Niles, there was a brief reign of terror, until the heroes of Halcyon City confiscated the amulet. Now, they share duties teaching History at Phoenix Academy.


• Lyra Lancer aka Snowflake (she/her): A student newly arrived under the Clean Slate program, with the same ice powers as the rest of her (supervillain) family.


• Old Man Oak (he/his): The ancient spirit guiding the legacy of the Green Knight - a vast tree glimpsed in visions in an endless summer glade.


• Evangeline aka Incredible Ooze (she/her): Though this hero's most obvious power is that she's entirely composed of amorphous slime, she'd prefer to be known as a gadgeteer hero. Shy and socially awkward.


• Bob aka 808 (he/him): A TV-headed robot who’s a big nerd for AV electronics.


• Abby Juration aka Dispell (she/her): A gothic lolita spell-weaver from a storied family of mages. Crash's other rival for Class President.
