《The Eightfold Fist》79.5. "The Glossary"
Advertisement
Due to the ever-increasing size and scale of the story, I thought a glossary would be useful to help keep track of everything. Listed here are brief descriptions of characters, places of interest, and the various odds-and-ends of the world they live in. Still under-construction, but this will have spoilers for the Prologue (Episodes 1 - 4), with very minor spoilers (such as the existence and allegiances of certain characters) for Episode 5 and beyond.
Character List
New England
By the sword we seek peace. A quiet peace under liberty.
Consisting of the same six states from the former United States, New England has had a turbulent fifty-year history, from the Presidential Restoration that founded it to its peak following the Upstate War and its defeat in the First American War.
West Narragansett Technical Academy
Class 2-C
Isaac Spallacio
Power: The Eightfold Fist (Supercharged Fist and Ability to Produce Clones)
First Introduced: Season 1, Episode 1 – The Funeral
On the border of medium height to tall, usually with messy brown hair, generally wakes up ready to take on the day, always ready to lend a hand to someone in need. Determined to never give up or never give in, though that can make him a little stubborn, especially when any of his pet peeves (Slovenliness, Piper, alleged violations of alleged social norms) are involved. Loves life, though he’s naïve to it in a certain way, as many of his ideals, including several school-learned ones, don’t always hold up in reality. The brawn.
Audrey Adzinoki
Power: Accelerate cell growth of plants
First Introduced: Season 1, Episode 1 – The Funeral
Medium height, medium blonde hair, you’ll never find a happier girl. Audrey is fun personified, always enjoying the small moments in life, a perpetual smile on her face...until she reaches a breaking point. But when those points come, her friends will be there for her, since she’ll always be there for them. Not the most academically-gifted student, but she always tries her best. Scatterbrained, but she always means well. The heart.
Hibiscus Reed
Power: The Domino Sword (Sound wave manipulation)
First Introduced: Season 1, Episode 1 – The Funeral
Short, unkempt brown hair, dour and sour, plain and dry. Reed wants a lot of things, or maybe really just one thing in particular – some vaguely defined sense of freedom she continually finds to be just out of reach. Of course, she has little motivation to do any reaching anyways, spending most of her time bumming around with her friends or getting high, sometimes both at the same time. Has a nasty habit of lying and scheming that generally blows up in her face at the worst time. The brain (though she’d tell you she’s all three).
Mackenzie (Something)
Power: Can emit radar waves
First Introduced: Season 1, Episode 2 - The Sewer
Tall, long blonde hair, the Class Rep for Class 2-C. Can be seen as authoritarian, both in her management style and in her political beliefs. But she does care for her class and especially for Lynn, her best friend.
Lynn Falls
Power: Super Speed (Though Not Quite)
First Introduced: Season 1, Episode 2 - The Sewer
Short, blonde with a blue streak in her hair, a nice and pleasant girl. She generally goes along her merry way in life, but her occasional empty-headedness can land her in trouble. Does better with taking orders than giving them. May or may not be in love with Reed.

Piper Piper
Power: Platinum Disco (Can emit blinding lights)
First Introduced: Season 1, Episode 1 - The Funeral
Oksana Nazarov
Power: Snake Manipulation
First Introduced: Season 1, Episode 4 – The Microwave
Short, mousy brown hair, a perpetual lack of emotion on her face. Had an odd childhood involving Russian “population movements” and atomic warfare before ending up in New England. A special friend may or may not be there for her in times of trouble.

Clayton Wesley
Power: Wind Manipulation
First Introduced: Season 1, Episode 1 - The Funeral
Tall, sandy hair, relaxed and as cool as a cucumber. Clayton is the strongest user in the school. He's a bit of an airhead, which ties nicely with his ability to manipulate the wind.
Hanai Hanaki
Class 1-D
Esther Adzinoki
First Introduced: Season 1, Episode 1 – The Funeral
Power: N/A (Just a genius)
Tall, long black hair, beautiful, the smartest girl in the school. Too bad she has problems with connecting with anyone in the school. Always shy, Esther is much more comfortable around her books than she is with people, because people don’t fit into neat little boxes like her facts do. Highly loyal to Chairman Stockham, the man who got her out of poverty (which can make her forget about the sister who got her through poverty). A fun fact about her is that sometimes, lying in bed late at night, she feels a little lonely, which makes no sense since being alone is so much better, right? (Sometimes she also wishes the Central Powers won World War I, but that’s a story for another time).

Japanimation
My Little Sister and I Couldn’t Have Possibly Been Reincarnated as Modern Day Spirit Hunters
The second-greatest Japanimation of all time, according to both Isaac and Reed. The main character, Takibi, and his little sister, Yuki, are reincarnated thirty years into the future, as Japan faces a crossroads of destiny. Complicating matters are evil spirits wreaking havoc across the country, led by a mysterious man named Yuji. Other characters include Takibi’s childhood friend, Chikyu (both Isaac and Reed’s favorite, who, of course, doesn’t win Takibi’s heart) and Yasashi, a memorable one-episode peasant girl (though she does reappear in the manga apparently).

Blood and Honor (Rewrite)
Fate is such a simple and complicated word. It is also the name of the most popular VRMMORPG. Do what you want, be what you want. Your fate is what you make of it. Their is also wealth and power from Fate Online for those willing to take it and fight for it. For the people fighting from the bottom up, they are willing to do almost anything. Even kill or betray. I learned that the hard way, but when a man losses everything, he can do pretty much anything. Note* I do not own the Pic, I did not create it. All credit of the PIC/Art goes to the original creatorNote* Rewrites are coming starting 08-March-2021Note* Chapters will be released on Monday, Wednesday, and Friday.Note* This story will contain profanity, violence, cursing, sexual content, offensive language, jokes about fantasy ethnic groups (People that aren't real in other words), etc...
