Character List for Inda

Some have asked for a list of characters from Inda. Below are only people named, so in the case of the families, members not mentioned in the book by name don’t get listed here. It’s long enough already. I tried to keep people to categories, but there is a Misc. list at the end for the ones who don’t belong in a category and I didn’t want to set a single one up just for them.
