The Knights of the Shard

Once called the Children of the Shard, these "knights" now seek to bring horrific change to the world of Io.  In the past, its members have manipulated and maneuvered powerful entities into ripping the barriers between the planes, tethering demons to royal families, and raising their fallen dead with blood magic.  Possibly ancient and very mysterious, not much else is known of this organization, save for the few members encountered and dispatched by the Knight Owls.
Lady Motis - an oathbreaker paladin of Thorizduun who once attempted an uprising of the denizens living below Orlandin.  She and her allies struck a terrorist blow to the Nine (the council in Orlandin) and charmed/kidnapped Amos Southpaw.  In their plan to use the vicious Pale Wings to wipe out all of Highborn, they unknowingly revealed a schism in the ranks of the Pale Wings, which the Knight Owls and their allies exploited to neutralize the Pale Wings.  It also helped that they easily overpowered and defeated her in the middle of her dark ritual far below the city of Orlandin.  -UPDATE: Lady Motis was recently resurrected through blood magic by ex-Knight Owl Hydris.  Her life-force was successfully bound to a PC (Darrak), splitting her pain between the two and eventually killing him, but the party once again cut her down.

Medivh - also known as "The Immortal Matron," it is clear that Medivh has been the matriarch of Exian for quite some time, but no one really knows how long.  She has proven to be an extremely powerful sorceress and a true student of the arcane, though the party seems wary of her true intentions.

POWERFUL ENTITIES

Less of the Eye and Wind (Lessai) - first encountered at the Gala at Ardonai, Lessai's form is imposing, but curious.  At a glance, she is an athletic woman in tight black leggings and long-sleeve shirt.  In stark contrast is her white bodesse and long white gloves, paired with an immaculate porcelain mask over her face, framed by long, flowing black locks.  The mask is mostly opal, save for one stylized eye on the left side.  Upon closer inspection and conversation, one PC recognized that her clothes were not fabric, but concentrated black smoke that would stretch and cling to her form as she moved, and the white accents of her "wardrobe" were fine, scaled bits of armor.  As the night wore on and became more interesting, she demonstrating immense power in concentrating the air around her into weapons and was only felled when she was banished from this plane.  That same PC has been searching for her ever since...
Celeste of the Sky and Moon (Celune) - 

THE ESPERS
  + Eilir, The Key - a timid Earth Esper who commands immense power.  She was tasked with rebuilding the armies of the Espers for the war, doomed to continue this task until the end of time...  That is, until the Knight Owls fought their way out of her "proposal" to guardian-hood.  Now, she is but an eroding stone heart telepathically linked to whomever is holding her, uncertain if she is the last of her kind...  Learn more about Eilir and her abilities here.
