Here's the list of all the leaders, spiritual advisors, and quasi-chiefs of the Sun Folk. Since the Sun Folk don't have "chiefs" as the Wolfriders or the Go-Backs, this listing is somewhat more fluid than the others. As with the Wolfriders, I've included known soulnames, children, lifemates and lovemates, and a short summary of the "chief's" rule (well, a lot more than "short" for Savah), plus my own rating of the chief.

SAVAH the MOTHER OF MEMORY
Soulname: Unknown
Parents: Hassbet (Father unknown)
Lifemate: Yurek
Children: Many
She and her mother Hessbet founded Sorrow's End sometime after the Palace crashed. Her resemblance to both Timmain and her Recognized mate Aerth would suggest she may be their granddaughter or other descendant. Lost her lifemate Yurek relatively early in her long life, but continues to commune with his spirit. Almost 20,000 years old, the oldest living elf after Timmain. She continues to guide the Sun Folk, even as they travel in the Palace.
Rating: **** (I especially like her devotion to her lifemate's spirit.)
 
 
 

SUN-TOUCHER
Soulname/True name: Anatim
Parents: Unknown
Lifemate: Toorah
Children: Leetah and Shenshen
He is the day-to-day leader of the Sun Village. He is a bit of an astronomer like Skywise, and lost his sight by staring too long at the Daystar. We don't know much about him, despite his over-10,000-year life.
Rating: *** 1/2 (I wish he didn't like Cutter so much.)

RAYEK
Soulname: Unknown
Parents: Jarrah and Ingen
Lovemates: Leetah, Kahvi, Winnowill
Lifemate: Winnowill (not exactly by choice)
Children: Venka
He was the sole hunter and protector of the Sun Village before the coming of the Wolfriders, and held a great deal of prestige. He left the Sun Village after the Wolfriders arrived and only returned from time to time.
Rating: **** 1/2 (He was pretty mean to the Sun Folk, but in his heart he always wanted to protect them.)
 

DART
Soulname: Dyrr
Parents: Strongbow and Moonshade
Lifemate: Kimo
Recognized: Serrin
Children: Bowki
Dart took over as hunter after Rayek, and started the Jackwolf Riders, aka the New Blood Wolfriders. He came to be another day-to-day leader of Sorrow's End. He left the Sun Folk after the destruction of the village to return to his parent's tribe.
Rating: **** (Loses points for those brooding fits, gains points for giving Kimo his soulname.)
 

AHDRI the DAUGHTER OF MEMORY
Soulname: Unknown (Possibly none)
Parents: Unknown (descendant of Savah)
Lifemate: Windkin
Children: None known (though 10,000 years is a long time to be childless....)
She served as Savah's student and handmaiden for over 10,000 years. Her rockshaping gift allowed her to protect Sorrow's End from the increasing human population. She refused to let Savah die with the village and sacrificed herself to protect the Little Palace. Recently healed by Leetah, she now lives with the Wolfriders.
(Presumed) Death: Shot by humans back in 1995, and wrapstuffed at the edge of death. Revived by Leetah in 2004.
Rating: ***** (Daughter of Memory AND cheated death? This girl rocks!)
 

SUNSTREAM
Soulname: Unknown
Former name: Suntop
Parents: Cutter and Leetah
Lifemate: None yet
Children: None yet
He was destined from birth to be a powerful mystic, and has now come into his power as the "clear stream" through which all elves are joined in sending. The student of Savah and Timmain, he's currently napping in wrapstuff, taking some time out to talk with the spirits in the Palace.
Rating: ***** (Too cool for words.)
