;Tavare: Tavare is an Emerald level blade elemental. Tavare refers to themself as "Radiance". Tavare has access to radiance (a subessence of constellations) and metal magic. Tavare was capable of transferring mana to Sera. Tavare usually resides within one of Derek's swords but when summoned looks like a person with golden skin with scale-like armour seemingly growing from their skin.
