Legends of the Shady Trough

Super Important Dramatis Personae

This is a handy reference to the characters that will be playing an important role at one point or another in the tale. I will add characters as they are introduced. The format for each character will go as follows:

Character Name *Creator's Name*- Short description. (Chapter Introduced) [Date Added to Story]

The *Creator's Name* is the name of the FimFiction user that gave me the OC to use in the story. Some users let the imagination go wild and submitted several OCs. I appreciate all the characters, and you can feel free to submit others to be added to the story later on down the line! Well, enough talk, let's start the list!
