• Emerson Cole: A 17 year old girl who sees people from the past. It has been harder to cope with since her parents died four years before the story began.
• Michael Weaver: Consultant for the Hourglass. Very good looking, not much older than Emerson.
• Thomas: Emerson's brother and guardian, roughly two decades older than her. An very talented architect, his business partner/wife is Dru and they both love Emerson.
• Dru: Thomas' wife. Loves Emerson like a daughter. She's amazing at throwing things together be it room-design or fashionable outfits.
• Lilliana "Lily" Garcia: Em's best friend. Her only friend to stick with her over the years. Her grandmother owns Murphy's Law -- a coffee shop with delicious Cubanos and empanadas.
• Jonathan Landers: The villian of the story. Currently head of Hourglass.
• Liam Ballard: Scientist, Kaleb's dad. Founder of Hourglass.
• Grace Ballard: Liams wife. Has the same abilities as Emerson.
• Kaleb Ballard: Liam's son, and Michael's best friend. REALLY good looking and pretty obnoxious, though that's just his 'outer wall.' An empath.
• Ava: One of the people who live in Hourglass. Connected to Michael somehow, she is stunning, very tall with dark auburn hair.
• Dr. Cat Rooks: Works at the college funded by Hourglass (for people with 'abilities'). She is a house mother, described as being stunning and in her late twenties.
• Nate Lee: He has time-related powers like Michael and Em. Lives in the college house with the others. A friend of Michael.
• Dune Ta'ala: He has water-related powers. Lives in the house too. An exceptional researcher.
