	Bradley Humes Brother (Status ••); Athletics Major (Senior), Baseball Boisterous and the unquestioning leader of the fraternity's partiers, Bradley is the sort who was obviously born for the Greek life. He is a second-generation ATO, and his father contributed a fat portion of funding that paid for the ATO house's furnishings (something he never lets anyone forget). Common Locations: ATO Fraternity House (Room 8), University of Astoria (Athletics Center, Main Quad, Other frat houses), Crossroads
	Brody Higgins & Caleb Huffman Brothers (Status ••); Currently General Science Majors (3rd Year Seniors); UofA Republicans, Social Gaming Club Brody and Caleb are childhood friends that are rarely ever seen apart from each other. They spend most of their time on the couch in the ATO house watching television or playing video games. They are both third generation ATO and third year seniors having attended Wayne State University in Detroit, MI prior to transferring to UofA when it first began enrollment. They have changed their majors seven times since they began college and their parents don't seem to mind continuing to float the bill so long as they retain their ATO family pedigree. Common Locations: ATO Fraternity House (Rooms 3 & 4), University of Astoria (Student Center, Library, Richmond Science Center, Athletics Center)
	Sebastian King Brother (Status ••); Biology (Pre-Med, Junior), Soccer, Track and Field. Sebastian's parents are major donors to the UofA and frequent guests at university functions. Sebastian is expected to follow in their philanthropic footsteps and is President of UofA's Student Council. His own interests run toward food, and he is a master barbecuer. He also organizes competitive eating events on campus, the chief of which is this year's third annual Blazing BBQ Bacon Burger Apocalypse. Common Locations: ATO Fraternity House (Room 12), University of Astoria (Student Center, Richmond Science Center, Athletics Center)
	Tyler Doress Brother (Status ••); Engineering Major (Junior); Ballroom Dancing Club, Habitat for Humanity, Bowling Club Tyler transferred to UofA from PSU last year. He is highly sociable but tends to be a quiet observer more than a contributor. He is a very active participants in the clubs he belongs to and always eager to lend a helping hand in fraternity events. He maintains a perfect 4.0 GPA, though he is rarely ever seen studying. Tyler has a girlfriend named Jin Ae that he has been dating long distance for six years. She lives in Korea and they met through World of Warcraft. • Ep 101b: Stella had initially mistaken the "large hulking figure" in the basement to be Tyler. Common Locations: ATO Fraternity House (Room 7), University of Astoria (Student Center, Library, Innis Hall)
	Henry Mulgrew Brother (Status •); Mass Communications Major (Junior); Wrestling, Cross-Country & Rugby Henry is the newest member of ATO. Common Locations: ATO Fraternity House (Room 17), University of Astoria (Athletics Center, Columbia Hall, Student Center [esp the Queer Resource Center ).
	Carter Smythe Brother (Status ••); Engineering Major (Sophomore); Cross Country, Rugby, Wrestling Carter is a young former Eagle Scout who is attending university partially on a Scouting scholarship. He's an upstanding young man: a star rugby player and wrestler, good at academics, a faithful church-goer who does work with service organizations like Habitat For Humanity during his summers. He also helps run the campgrounds for the local Boy Scouts, as well. Carter was thrilled when Warner, someone from his old troop who'd been (to his mind) unfairly removed from the Scouts, showed up at the university, and they've struck up a tentative friendship again. If Carter has a weakness, it is the TA Neena Cosgrove, whom he asks out on a date at the end of every lecture he attends where she is presiding. To date, he's had no success, but he's sure he just needs to prove himself to her. In the short time since the new brother Henry has shown up, he and Carter have found themselves in a friendly rivalry. Common Locations: ATO Fraternity House (Room 21), University of Astoria (Student Center, Library, Innis Hall, Athletics Center)
	Justin Baratiak Brother (Status ••); Athletics Major (Sophomore); Baseball, Cross Country Justin juggles working full time for the Astoria Trolley and a full load of courses on top of baseball and cross country. This being the case, he has precious little spare time. He lives in a tiny off campus apartment with his aunt. He frequently spends what little free time he can find at the ATO House where he decompresses with his friends or studies in the frequently abandoned study hall. Common Locations: ATO Fraternity House (Room 11), University of Astoria (Athletic Center), Crosswalk Apartments, Astoria Trolley (work).
	Kaleb Jackson Brother (Status •); Marine Biology Major (Sophomore); Swim team, Coast Guard ROTC Known throughout the frat house as "Grumpy Cat" for his general demeanor and bad attitude, Kaleb goes through life with a glare on his face. Though he doesn't have many immediate friends in the frat or out of it, he is dedicated to it as a whole - unsurprising given the fact that his father is ATO as well, and donated about half of the funds used to furnish the downstairs. Common Locations: ATO Fraternity House (Room 14), University of Astoria (MERTS Campus, Patriot Hall, Richmond Science Center).
	Eric Clasen Brother (Status ••); Mechanical Engineering Major (Sophomore); Rugby, Coast Guard ROTC Eric is pursuing a Mechanical Engineering degree under a Coast Guard ROTC scholarship. Absolutely mad for Rugby he decided on the University of Astoria so that he could play and not have to leave the Oregon Coast to go to college. Eric seems to split his time between studying, partying at the ATO house, and working out at the Athletic center. Common Locations: ATO Fraternity House (Room 13), University of Astoria (Athletic Center, Innis Hall).
	Scott Garcia Torres Brother (Status •); English and Music Major (Sophomore), Wrestling, Boxing, Dance. A California transplant, Scott is a driven young man who keeps busy athletically and academically. His frat brothers see him as a withdrawn and taciturn tough guy, but he is actually a brony who is afraid to come out to his frat. He is an aspiring playwright and musical writer who keeps his scripts of musical vignettes for the ponies a closely guarded secret published online under the pseudonym Hoof Cadence. Common Locations: ATO Fraternity House (Room 23), University of Astoria (Towler Hall, Alder Hall, Athletics Center)
	Emmett Lahey Brother (Status •); Major Undeclared (Sophomore); Swim Team, Rugby Emmett has come close to declaring his major several times, vacillating from Communications to Philosophy to Linguistics, but he hasn't settled yet. He's a Portlander whose parents died while he was a teenager, and he often returns to his aunt's winery for the weekend, bringing friends along for the trip. He sometimes eschews his studies in favor of coastal owling and feels more comfortable in the woods because a childhood accident left him with severe claustrophobia. He shares his adjoining bathroom with Scott Garcia Torres. Common Locations: ATO Fraternity House (Room 22), University of Astoria (Athletics Center)
	Pieter Kostina Brother (Status •); Agriculture & Business Dual Major (Freshman) The nephew of an ATO alum who worked to get the young man in the fraternity, Pieter grew up in Volgograd, Russia. Though he is bilingual, his speech is still somewhat heavily accented - he's only been in the United States since his senior year in high school. He's bright, if a little shy. Common Locations: ATO Fraternity House (Room 15), University of Astoria (Delphis Hall, Columbia Hall), his uncle's house in Portland, OR.
	Nick Marchant Brother (Status •); Undeclared Major (Freshman); Wrestling Another freshman who is part of the fraternity because his father was, Nick always seems a bit overwhelmed at the university experience. Though he's got something of a reputation as a bit of a follower, he's also a great guy to have around at parties. For some reason, he also seems to have quite a way with the ladies. Common Locations: ATO Fraternity House (Room 16), University of Astoria (Richmond Science Center, Towler Hall, Student Center).
	Eddy Tsung Brother (Status •); Education Major (Freshman); Cross Country, Baseball An Astoria local, Eddy has a half-assed intention of becoming a high school teacher, but is far more interested in his athletics program, hoping to find a place in professional baseball at some point. Common Locations: ATO Fraternity House (Room 19), University of Astoria (Athletics Center, Kant Hall), his family home in the Alameda/WestLex neighborhood of Astoria.
	Roger Vinings Brother (Status ••); Computer Major (Freshman); Swim Team Though the frat house nominally has maintenance to deal with such things, Roger immediately took up that responsibility when he was inducted into the ATO last year. Though this is his second year as a freshman, he started in Winter term last year, and rushed the frat that term. Common Locations: ATO Fraternity House (Room 20), University of Astoria (Innis Hall, Athletics Center).

He's used to landing all the ladies, and has a reputation of a lady-killer. He's also got a reputation (without sufficient legal precedent, unfortunately) as someone willing to resort to chemicals if his ladies are less-than-willing. Ep 104a: Roman had his eyes on Aedia Randall at the Greek Row Trick-or-Treat Block Party, but was interrupted mid-dance by Jace Evans. When he responded with violence, Jace bloodied his nose for him.

• Other Sisters, by Name: Lyssa (Junior), Bethany (Sophomore)

	Aedia Randall Chapter President; Business, specializing in green technologies and conservation; Cross-Country and Swim Team The president of Theta Phi Alpha, Aedia comes from money. She's no spoiled debutante belle, though, or snooty New England royalty. She's definitely a Pacific Northwestern girl, all piercings and a preference for house music. She's really damned good at most of the things she puts her mind to, and looks down on everyone else around her. She claims to hold herself and everyone around her to a high standard, but most people agree she's just kind of a superior bitch, even if she is fucking irritatingly good at what she does. Unlike most queen-bee types, she doesn't have a clique of girls who follow at her beck and call, however - so far, no one's managed to live up to her high standards. Aedia also has a cousin who is a TA at the university, and the two of them spend occasional time together. • Ep 101: Aedia appeared at the Crossroads while Jace and Thomas were there. She paid attention to Jace just long enough to get drinks off of him, and then hooked up with some meat-head athlete. Common Locations: TPA Sorority House (Room 1&2), University of Astoria (Athletics Center, Columbia Hall, Innis Hall, Student Center), the Crossroads
	Bethany Tanner Art History Major (Junior) Something of a party girl, Bethany is a social force to be reckoned with. Coming from old Southern money, she is very familiar with the very highest of American society, and though she acts like a rebellious party-girl, she can "put on" those old mannerisms at the drop of a hat. She owns a big land yacht of a car, and loves driving her friends off on weekend road trips occasionally. • Ep 101: Part of Aedia's crew at the Crossroads, she was among those left to entertain Jace (a task she didn't seem to object to at all). Common Locations: TPA Sorority House, University of Astoria (xxx), the Crossroads
	Lysa Amber Godfrey Veterinary Medicine Major (Sophomore) The quiet one of Aedia's group, Lysa is actually a clever and very likeable young woman. She is a good planner and coordinator of people who loves animals (and they love her right back). She also has an unfortunately low self-esteem and a tendency to get "white girl drunk." • Ep 101: Part of Aedia's crew at the Crossroads, she was among those left to entertain Jace (a task she didn't seem to object to at all). Common Locations: TPA Sorority House, University of Astoria (xxx), the Crossroads
	Miranda Barnes Psychology Major (Sophomore) One of the small clique of girls who seem to orbit Aedia, Miranda is arguably the quietest one of them all. She recently managed to land the attentions of Jace Evans, to the envy of her girlfriends, but doesn't seem sure what to make of it. • Ep 101: Part of Aedia's crew at the Crossroads, she was among those left to entertain Jace (a task she didn't seem to object to at all). He was cool toward her, and she ended up giving him a handjob in the car outside, before they went their separate ways. Common Locations: TPA Sorority House, University of Astoria (Kant Hall, Student Center, Alder Hall), the Crossroads

Deceased

Dan Montoya History Major (Sophomore); Cross Country, Basketball Dan was very gregarious and made a point of getting to know just about everyone that he encountered on anything like a regular basis. He was also the go-to guy for brothers who were having problems with history or writing work in general. Dan lost his life after being bitten by a wolf at the Bonfire event, and two days of subsequent fever. Common Locations: ATO Fraternity House (Room 24), University of Astoria (Athletic Center, Patriot Hall).
