Meet the Love Interests
Love & Magic… Emphasis On Love
At Elderwood University, you’ll learn magic spells, battle terrifying monsters, solve forbidden mysteries… and most of all, you’ll have the chance to fall head-over-heels in love. LOVE & MAGIC: SPELLFYRE will offer players a choice of six original love interests to romance, from the irresistibly arrogant rival to the mysterious girl across the hall.
Did You Say SIX?
That’s right! When developing LOVE & MAGIC: SPELLFYRE, we knew we wanted to go above and beyond the standard expectations of mobile romance games. When it comes to love interests, that means making sure there's something for everyone, no matter what kind of romance storyline you’re interested in. Rivals to lovers? Got you covered. Sweet best friend that becomes so much more? Got that too. Being together is too dangerous, but irresistible? We've got that in spades. 😏
So who are these captivating Love Interests?
Talyn Reaver
Class: 3rd Year
Age: 21
Affinity: Penthos
Fun Fact: Talyn’s father was from Savola, a tropical island kingdom to the west
A brooding outsider with a chip on his shoulder, Talyn has long since given up trusting anyone. Orphaned when his father was executed for fighting with Andros Dreadbane, Talyn grew up being passed around from one noble family to another, forced to rely on himself to survive. At Elderwood University, he’s created a reputation as the Beastslayer, famous for his skills slaying Shades… and for coming back from team missions alone.
Iridessa Brightsage
Class: 1st Year
Age: 18
Affinity: Felicis
Fun Fact: Iridessa makes incredible cocktails with a magical twist
Iridessa comes from one of the wealthiest families in Austerea (think: fancy balls, elegant tea parties, sprawling country estates). She’s bubbly, outgoing, and personable, an expert at throwing parties and charming people. But underneath that sunny exterior, Iridessa longs to forge her own identity at Elderwood University and find a way to define herself outside of her parents’ influence.
Bardric Arkland
Class: 1st Year
Age: 19
Affinity: Erolis
Fun Fact: Bardric arrives at Elderwood on the back of Steelbeak, his majestic red-maned griffin
Bardric has a tremendous reputation hanging over him. His father is General Arkland, the hero of the republic and the man who defeated Andros Dreadbane. Bardric struts into Elderwood University driven by a deep sense of loyalty and duty, but when he meets you, it turns his entire worldview upside down. Your fathers were mortal enemies… but could the two of you make peace?
Leona Goldenspire
Class: 1st Year
Age: 19
Affinity: Sikranos
Fun Fact: Leona’s tattoos are a map of her life, each element from somewhere she’s traveled
Leona is adventurous and free-spirited, a wanderer with a zest for life. Raised by her father, Austerea’s finest bounty hunter, Leona grew up on the road, chasing thrills and sleeping under the stars. Growing up like that has made Leona crafty and resourceful, but also skittish when it comes to settling down. And three years at Elderwood will mark the longest she’s ever lived in one place…
Cato Fairscribe
Class: 1st Year
Age: 18
Affinity: Ikaris
Fun Fact: Cato is a skilled musician, proficient at multiple magical instruments
At a cutthroat university like Elderwood, Cato immediately stands out for his empathy, humor, and kindness. It doesn't hurt that he’s also a prodigy, and his love of learning means he's read more books by eighteen than most people read their entire lives. Raised by his grandmother in the Archives of Gildtower, Cato’s brilliant mind is offset by his lonely heart and a yearning for connection with others.
Niel Shieldsong
Class: 1st Year
Age: 18
Affinity: Timoros
Fun Fact: Niel secretly dabbles in forbidden dream magic.
The product of an affair between a married arcane and an innkeeper, Niel is marked from birth as a dirtmage, an embarrassment shunned by elite society. She can seem shy and cautious, but beneath that quiet front is a resourceful and driven arcane, increasingly finding her place in the world. Niel is inquisitive, loyal, compassionate… and willing to bend the rules if she needs to.
Find One True Love… Or Date Them All!
You can date all six Love Interests in LOVE & MAGIC: SPELLFYRE, or you can focus on just one (or none!). But romance isn’t the only way to get to know people. All of these great characters will also be available as friends and allies, so you’ll be able to experience their stories platonically if you prefer.
We can’t wait for you to meet them!
