The Aetheri short film (and the ball itself) has its own original cast and on this page we’ll introduce the characters and actors. New introductions will be added the upcoming weeks till ticket sales start.
Kyra – played by Ada Öztürk
“Kyra is raised by her father, Theon, the captain of the guard. She honed her skills under his guidance, becoming a fierce and fearless guard. Within the ranks of the guard regiment, she found not just duty, but family, forming an unbreakable bond with her closest friends, Milo and Dax. Kind yet unyielding, Kyra is a force of nature, loyal, relentless and impossible to ignore.”
Azure – played by Joey Wagemans
“Azure once lived peacefully in the kingdom, until one day he packed his belongings and left. For years, he wandered in search of knowledge, his journey leading him to a band of pirates. Impressed by his sharp mind and strategy, they took him in. Soon, he became one of their most valued members.”
Godrick – played by Jeremiah Fleming
“Godrick, the king of Aetheri, was once a man of promise, but time has worn him down. He had an arranged marriage to Medina at a young age. He once cared for her, until that affection faded into indifference. His choices over the years have turned admiration into resentment, leaving him more feared than revered. A king isolated by his own choices.”
Theon – played by Ben Wood
“Theon is the captain of the royal guard. He’s a strong and disciplined leader who sees his regiment as family. His daughter, Kyra, started training with him at the age of six, and he’s incredibly proud of her. As both a leader and a father, Theon is deeply respected.”
Riven – played by Giada Tresoldi
“Riven is Captain Raden’s closest friend. She once worked at a tavern, when one day a group of men threatened her. Raden stepped in and stopped them. Seeing her potential, Raden offered to train her so she could defend herself. Over time, Riven came to believe in Raden’s vision and chose to follow her on her journey. From that day forward, she has remained fiercely loyal to her captain.”
Medina – played by Ramona Wood
“Queen Medina is the heart of her kingdom: graceful, beloved, and deeply devoted to her people. Married to the king at a young age, she has learned to navigate the complexities of both the throne and her strained marriage. Though their relationship is far from perfect, she remains steadfast, holding her kingdom together with quiet strength and unwavering determination.”
Milo – played by Tristan Valkenburg
“Milo is fearless, outgoing, and always ready for a good time. He and Dax are like brothers, balancing each other despite their differences. They joined the regiment together, later meeting Kyra and forming an unbreakable trio. Whether training, fighting, or partying, Milo is always at the center of the action.”
Dax – played by Sasha
“Dax is quiet, strategic, and always thinking ahead. The opposite of Milo, he prefers precision over impulse but is fiercely loyal to those he trusts. He and Milo joined the regiment together, their bond like brothers despite their differences. While Milo thrives on chaos, Dax finds strength in strategy.”
Eric – played by Eddy Janson
“Eric is Theon’s best friend and closest ally, their bond forged in battle. Loyal and dependable, he stands by Theon like a brother. As a respected guard, Eric has played a big role in training Kyra, acting as a second father to her. His dedication to both his duty and his chosen family makes him a valued leader among the guards.”
