- Larka is the main character and, like Morgra, has the Sight. At first she is terrified, but as the story progresses she learns to control her power. Because of Morgra's "curse" all her pack dies except her mother and father, her brother (which in the middle of the book fell though the ice on a river and then lost his memory), and her best friend and possible mate, Kar. She has a pure white pelt and gold eyes. She dies while killing Morgra in order to save the child, a death she foresaw that causes great distress to her family and potential mate, Kar.
- Fell is Larka's brother. He has a pure black pelt with yellow eyes with a sliver of green in the right eye. As a pup he pretended he was scared of nothing. After he fell though the ice he was found by Morgra and brainwashed to make him believe he was Wolfbane. Larka brought him back to believe in who he really was and help bring about the Vision. Fell also has the Sight, although this is not clearly stated until Larka confronts him in Harja.
- Morgra is the main antagonist. She possesses the Sight, and is Palla's half sister. She was believed of being a pup killer. Her Helper, a bird companion that helps a wolf with the Sight learn to see through the eyes of birds, is a raven named Kraar.
- Huttser is Larka and Fell's father and alpha male of the pack. He is described as a large silver wolf with reddish flecks in his tail. His sister is Kipcha.
- Palla is Huttser's mate, and the Drappa of the pack. She is Morgra's half sister, and has a brother named Skop. Though the books do not mention her main fur color, it is said that she has a long, slim muzzle and bushy silver ears.
- Kar is an orphan who accompanies Skop to the main pack, and is then left with them when Skop goes to join the rebel pack. He and Larka were best friends and could have been mates. He is described as looking like a true Dragga, but often is shown to be slightly cowardly and more of a Sikla. He has a dark grey pelt.
- Brassa is the pack's oldest member. She was the nurse who raised Palla and Skop as pups. She knew of Morgra's innocence in the pup killing, but said nothing to defend her. She dies of a lump in her stomach, brought on by the guilt of her lie and its ties to the legend.
- Khaz is the Beta or second-in-command. He is described as having gray fur with a red bushy tail, and the second strongest jaws in the pack. He falls into a wolf pit, laden with spikes at the bottom, and dies.
- Bran (wolf) is the pack's Sikla, or weakest member. He is very skittish and often backs away from confrontations. However, he fights off a group of the Night Hunters to save his pack, dying from the wounds he sustained in the process.He had a distinctive smudge of black around his right eye.
- Kipcha is the sister of Huttser. She mates with Khaz, but her and her unborn pups die as she is smashed against a rock when she falls into a river.
- Skart, a steppe eagle, is Tsarr's Helper and mentor. When Larka was trapped in the fire, Skart saved her life by showing her a way out of the flames. He then becomes Larka's Helper as well as Tsarr's.
- Skop is Palla's brother and also the one that brought Kar to the pack but then left in search for the Rebels. He couldn't find the Rebels and a few years later, found a lone wolf in a cave and pleaded with it for food and shelter while carrying the burden of a large wound on his side. He soon found out that the lone wolf is none other than Kar then he dies slowly.
- Slavka is the leader of the rebel wolves. She was forced to kill her own cubs when she was younger, leading to her fiery need for revenge and bitterness when she meets Huttser and Palla. Originally completely anti-superstition, after she met Larka, she began to believe. Morgra gained control of her after she released the Searchers, spirits of the dead. After Morgra and Larka died Morgra's power over Slavka was lost and Slavka approached Huttser, Palla, Kar and Fell for forgiveness.
- Tsarr is Larka's mentor. He is an old wolf who had the Sight, but it faded. He helped Jarla to steal the human child. It was his idea for the child to ride on wolves' backs such as Tsarr's back after realizing he's too heavy to carry in their mouths. Tsarr was one of the main wolves to protect and raise him. Tsarr died trying to rescue the baby from Morgra, but failed. He was very close to Bran.His Helper is Skart.
- Tsinga is Brassa's sister. Brassa and Tsinga had a falling out as young wolves. Tsinga is a fortune teller who lives on her own in the Valley of Shadows. She is blind and feared by others. The pack seek her out to help Larka with the Sight and to tell them how to escape Morgra's curse.
- Bran (human) is the human child that was stolen from the human's and is used for Larka, and the Sight. He is named after Bran the wolf. All of the wolves Jarla, Tsarr, and Larka all died for the human cub so he can live. This human child was fond by the wolves, except for Morgra. After Tsarr failed to save Bran, it was Huttser who rescued it and brought the child on his back to safety. In the end, Fell brought Bran back to his home. Fell knew that the child wasn't happy saying good bye, but Fell knew he had to.
- Jarla is a grey wolf who suckled Bran at first. Then she was killed by Rebels and passed the duty on to Larka.
