*6th century Byzantine minor noblewoman
*Born in 526, Daughter of ennobled silk merchants who died in the plague of Justinian (c. 541-542), Konstantia serves as a lady-in-waiting to Aelia Sophia, the wife of Justin, the nephew to the Emperor Justinian. Educated under the reforms of Empress Theodora, Konstantia speaks Greek and Latin. She is a patroness of the arts and a patroness of a small home for orphans and widows.  Konstantia was 6 for the Nika Riots (and that's why she's still a Blue to this day), 16 during Justinian's Plague (where she lost both parents to bubonic plague), 25 when the Beirut Earthquake caused a tsunami for the Mediterranean.  Theodora died when Konstantia was 22. Of course, when Justinian keels over next year, she'll be inconsolable.

*6th century Byzantine minor nobleman
*Constantine Gabrielus Kaloethes, known as Constans, is a minor noble serving in the courts of Justinian and Theodora.  He is a diplomat working in the Bureau of Barbarians (''scrinium barbarorum'') and like the Emperor and Empress, is a Blue.  He, too, was born a few days after the end of the Nika riots, and speaks Latin, Greek, and a smattering of other barbarian tongues.
