OH MY GOSH I’M SO EXCITED!!!!! My favorite characters from The Runaway King (well the whole Ascendance series really) would have to be Jaron (duh he’s awesome) Imogen, and Fink. I feel like that’s what everyone is going to say though, I’m not that original XD
Ahhh this is all super exciting!
My favourite characters areโฆSage, Audrey, and Harlowe!
(Iโm not sure if Caela counts, but she is pretty cool too!)
oh no! i just realised my phone autocorrected Audra to Audrey :/
My three favorite characters are Jaron, Mott, and Chaya.
Thank you for another amazing book and another amazing giveaway! This was a hard prompt because I love so many of your characters, but this is the list I finally settled on:
1.) Sage from the Ascendance Series
2.) Aurelia from the Mark of the Thief Trilogy
3.) Mott from the Ascendance Series
Jarron
Imogen
Simon
My three favorite characters are Jaron because he takes so many risks which always makes his books fun. My second favorite character is Mott. I admire his loyalty to Jaron and the king of Carthya. My 3rd favorite character is from Words on Fire. Words on Fire is my favorite book of ALL time because it shines a light on a not as well-known part of history and shows how much books can change you. So my absolute favorite character is Audra the storm.
My three fav characters:
*Roden- The False Prince Trilogy
* Ani- The Scourge
* Nic- Mark of the Thief Trilogy

Iโm so excited for The Shattered Castle! Can you get books on Halloween instead of candy? Lol ๐ My favorite characters are Kestra, Simon, and Imogen. I also have a question from The Traitorโs Game series Iโm hoping you could answer. What did the โBut all to Foolโ mean in the prophecy?
Kestra had to fool all of them. Does that make sense?
If Iโm being honest here, I still donโt understand.
Oh waitโฆ is it because she had โitโ the whole time and nobody knew? Thatโs just my guess.
Conner, Sage, Jaron
Ahhhh!!! Iโm sooooo excited for this book to come out!
My favorite characters are Wilta (from Captive Kingdom), Gerta (from A Night Divided), and Audra (Words on Fire)!!!
P.S. Have you been sending the newsletters out on a different platform than this? Iโm asking because even though I signed up for it, I havenโt been getting anything. So Iโm just wondering if itโs my mistake. Thank you!
Oooooo Iโm so excited for The Shattered Castle!!!!! I like Simon from The Traitors Game, Fink from The Runaway King, and Weevil from The Scourge!
My top 3 characters in the Ascendance series are Sage, Erick, and Imogen.
jaron 100% (my favorite sarcastic nuisance), fink, and imogen (the one that keeps the nuisance in line <3)
The countdown has started!! So excited for this release!
For my favorite characters I think I’ll go with Jaron, Roden, and Nic.
I am absolutely terrified to read this book, but I’ve also never wanted to read a book more. I’m scared of what you are going to do to us!
Also, I have a question. Is this going to be the final book in the series, or will there be more after this one?
I think this will be the final book – but it’ll be a big ending!
No you have to write more please donโt give up on jaron
Yes!!
Please don’t stop you can’t give up on him(like everyone other than Imogen)
HI! So from the ascendance trilogy my favorite characters are:
1. Sage/Jaron because i just love how he is so saracastic but also smart plus he nevers gives up
2. Imogen because its Imogen how can she not be one of your favorite characters
3. Either Fink or Mott. I couldn’t choose from either so I chose both because Fink is a literal mood and Mott is just really trustworthy and is a warrior
So excited for this release!! My fav characters have to be Jaron, Imogen, and Kestra, although I also really like Aurelia!
The ascendance trilogy
1. Sage/Jaron because I love how saracastic he is and also how he always protects his friends/family
2. Imogen because how could you not love Imogen she is smart and makes sure Jaron does the right thing
3. Fink/Mott. I couldn’t choose between them because they both are in my top three. Fink is a literal mood and Mott is a warrior and is so trustowrthy
Fink, Sage/Jaron, and Harlow
I would say that my favorite characters are Imogen, Jaron (Obviously), and Aurelia.
Imogen is kinda like me in personality. Quiet yet blunt. However she’s actually a cinnamon roll ๐ I would like to be as brave as her.
Jaron… he’s cleverly annoying ๐ I love his sarcasm make me feel giddy all the time.
And Aurelia from Mark of The Thief series, I like strong girls as I’m not, especially since she was in ancient roman times.
So, I love the Ascendance series, so that’s where my characters are going to all come from.
First off…Kerwyn. I don’t think we appreciate the fact that this man was at the castle for all of Jaron’s craziness, and he was there when the royal family was murdered (whom were probably very good friends of his.) He keeps the kingdom together. Jaron trusts him with different secrets no one else is granted access to. That shows you what type of person he is. I just can’t help but love him.
Second, Harlowe. He’s just a good person. The world needs more people who help out those in need without judging them. The world needs more people that are accepting of people for who they are, instead of expecting them to be perfect. That’s why I love Harlowe. He’s a good man.
Lastly, Amarinda. She is is selfless. When she is told to marry Darius, she eventually accepts it, and learns to love the people so that she can be the best queen for them. Then when that doesn’t work out, she picks herself up, and continues to try and be the person the kingdom of Carthya needs, and she figures out a way to be happy about it. It can be really hard to move forward with a smile during hard times but, Amarinda does, which is pretty admirable.
Hmmm… for me, Tobias, Jaron, and Mott from Ascendance Series.
I love Ascendance Series with passion!!!
Sage, Fink, and Simon are my favorites! ๐
Iโm soooo excited for this – I havenโt been this hyped for something since the release of The Captive Kingdom! My three favorites characters are #1 Jaron (of course! Heโs also my all time favorite fictional character), #2 Roden ๐, #3 Fink!!!
Three of my favorite characters are Jaron, Imogen, and Mott from the Ascendance Series!!!!
Good luck to everyone who’s entering!
This is so awesome of you to do! A thank you from all of your fans ๐
In no particular order:
Kestra – love her! She’s so strong, independent, and clever.
Imogen – absolute angel for doing with Jaron all the time and she’s very compassionate and capable.

1. Sage
2. Sage
3. Sage
jk it’s actually:
1. Sage (not Jaron. Sage.)
2. Nic from Mark of the Thief
3. Simon from The Traitor’s Game
I don’t know why I like the guys best. I just do.
I totally get Sage and Jaron being different! Theyโre totally different people in my mind too.
Thats so true!
They have comepletly diffrent personalities
1.Sage/Jaron-his wit and personality instantly makes him my favorite character
2.Imogen-she’s strong and loyal. She’s not afraid to fight
3.Chaya(Resistance)-she is bold and brave. She is selfless and courageous
I CANNOT WAIT TO READ THE SHATTERED CASTLE!
1 Ani
2 Chaya
3 Audra
Agh this is so hard to choose! But I think my three favorites would be (in no particular order) Fink from The Ascendance Series, Basil from the Traitorโs Game trilogy, and Nic from the Mark of the Thief trilogy. Iโm so excited for the Shattered Castle, and thinking of it, Black Ink and any other stories that are on their way!
My three favorite characters are:
1. Sage
2. Mott
3. Fink
๐
My favorite characters are Tobias, Imogen, and Fink
Hello! I LOVE, absolutely LOVE…
1. BASIL!
The world has not seen a better character. Never.
2. Trina
*she haunts me**she is definitely scary**she is awesome*
3. Nic
Magic just adds to his amazing personality !!
Though seriously. I love almost every single character in these books. Except maybe Tiergan…
1. Ani from “The Scourge”
2. Jaron/Sage from “The Ascendance Series”
3. Simon from “The Traitor’s Game Series”
In no specific order though. They’re amazing characters with realistic flaws and fears. They make mistakes like we all do, but overcome them for the greater good. They care for other people more than they do themselves which make them a reflection of what we all should aspire to be: selfless, despite what the other (selfish and self-serving) characters in the same story try to convince them they’re not.
I have so many characters that I absolutely love from all your books, but if I had to choose three, they would be:
1) Jaron/Sage from the Ascendance Series
2) Nic from the Mark of the Thief Series
3) Kestra from the Traitor’s Game
Hi! My favorite charactersย in your books are…
1) Jaron/Sage 2) Imogen 3) Weevilย
Obviouslyย there’s waaay more though. Like Simon, Kestra, Roden, Aurelia, Ani.
P.S. I LOVE your books!!!!! I always recommend them to my friends and they love it too. I even convinced my friends that hate reading to try reading The False Prince and they LOVED it and wanted to read the next straight away! So what I’m trying to say is thanks!! From me and my friends!!
1. Mott (his sense of humor is almost exactly the same as mine!)
2. Roden (one of my top fictional crushes)
3. Aurelia (I love her spirit and sarcasm)
Ah so exciting!
Mott is my favorite, obviously! I love him so much!
Jaron takes second place, he is so sassy!
And then Tobias is third because I love him he is so precious!
I just want to start off saying that every character is unique in their own ways so this was a hard question disguised as a simple question ๐ But here probably my top three faves!
!. Sage/ Jaron
2. Simon Hatch
3. Mott
Without a doubt, Jaron is my favorite character. I’ve never met anyone like him before, and it will be difficult thing to come across his equal. He was the hook that drew me into Ascendance, and he will forever be the best part of the series.
Picking second and third favorites will be a little harder. At the moment, it’s Fink and Nila. In Fink, I see a reflection of the younger sibling that I never had – annoying at times, but full of fun, immensely loyal, and infinitely precious.
On the other hand, despite Nila’s youth, she has seen more than she should have for her age, more than many others have seen. But she has not let it break her sweet character. And aside from that, I love how she sort of looks up to Jaron as an older brother type figure, because that is just so sweet. <3
My favorite characters are Jaron, Imogen, and Tobias!
1. Ani from “The Scourge” because she’s brave, smart, flawed but always wants to do the right thing, in fact, she strives to do good. She’s a little blind to what’s in front of her, and can sometimes miss the bigger picture but that’s what shows her human side.
2. Jaron/Sage from “The Ascendance Series”. I could spend days talking about how much I love Jaron as a character (and several additional hours on his sass) but in a few words: he’s quick on his feet, selfless (despite what others may try to convince him), and cares deeply for everyone, even those who have tried, on several occasions, to kill him. Its really his vulnerabilities (like his extreme lack of trust) that speak to me. It makes him so real.
3. Audra from “Words on Fire”. On her own she’s an incredible character, witty, fast-thinking, and intelligent. It was incredible to go on this literary journey with her as she discovers the power words can have on a person or society as a whole. Despite not understanding this idea at first, she still agrees to risk her life to deliver the books because its something her parents believed in. When she does discover the magic of words, she embraces this dangerous work because of what they can bring.
I feel like I’m picking favorites of my children, I love all of your characters! But alas a choice must be made…My three favorite characters are:
1) Gerta from A Night Divided
2) Sage/Jaron from the Ascendance series [no longer a trilogy ๐ ]
3) Aurelia from the Mark of the Thief trilogy
My top 3 are:
1. Ani
2. Imogen
3. Jason
Top 3 is hard!
1. Jason/Sage (Sage more so than Jaron)
2. Darius (I always love a good brother duo, especially if it has rivalries and lies and all the other good family drama stuff)
3. Mott (no reasoning needed)
Can’t wait for TSC to come out!
Mine are Jaron, Roden, and Mott
Itโs Not much but it says what it needs to say
This is so exciting! I can hardly wait for The Shattered Castle! My favorite characters area:
1. Sage/Jaron
2. Kestra from The Traitorโs Game
3. And Ani from The Scourge
Mine are Jaron, Imogen, and Kestra
1) Jaron (I love his personality!)
2) Imogen (How would Jaron be here without her!)
3) Meg (I love how clever she is!)
Wow it was so hard to choose!! I love every single one of your characters because they’re all so immaculately created!!
I’m sooooo exited for The Shattered Castle!! Ahh!!!
Mott!!!
Jaron
Imogen
Roden
Sage/Jaron
Nicolas Calva
Imogen
1. Jaron (I love his personality!)
2. Imogen (How would Jaron be here without her!)
3. Meg (I love how clever she is!)
It was so hard to decide on just three characters!! I love every single one of your characters because of how well they have been written and created!!!!
I’m SOOOO excited for The Shattered Castle!!! Ahh!!!
Hi Mrs. Nielsen, I have a question.
I know you probably can’t answer this without spoiling anything, but I have to ask. Will Kestra and Simon be in the Shattered Castle? I, along with many others, noticed the Eranbole Sea mentioned in the Warriors Curse and The Captive Kingdom.
Thanks so much!!
They won’t be in that book, but I love that you caught the connection!
Mott
Amarinda
Sir Master Conner
Good morning!
My favorite characters are:
Audra
Sage/Jaron
Ani
My three favorites (all from your Ascendance series) are Jaron, Mott, and Queen Erin. Jaron because he always tries to do what’s right and is willing to do anything for his kingdom, no matter how extreme. I also love his quick-witted and clever quips! I like Mott because of his loyalty and devotion to his king. I chose Erin because I love the stories about how she saw Jaron differently than everyone else. I especially liked the part where Conner said she wrote in her journal about him, and that she believed he was just like her.
These will be the BIG 3
(A) Jaron
The character which was inspired by Eddie Vedder song “Guaranteed”
(B) Imogen
I fell in love with her personality. And I will not forget these words that she told to Jaron. “If you love deeply that means you hurt deeply too.”
(C) Gerta
I love her personality also of taking risk and for being brave.
Acctually i’m pretty sure mott told Jaron the quote u said under imogen after umm he thought Imogen died
I would have to say my favorite characters are Imogen, Jaron, and Kestra, but all the characters are amazing so it is so hard to choose!
Mott
Imogen
Darius
1 – Jaron
2 – Nic
3 – Simon
Hi! I’ve only read your first three books, but I’ve ordered the fourth and it’s on the way! I love Jaron, Fink, and Imogin. All three have such unique, defined, lovable characteristics. Always a fan!
~Marie
Jaron
Mott
Errol
Sage – love his wittiness and stubbornness
Kestra – so clever and capable
Roden – his ambition is super relatable
Sage, love his wittiness and stubbornness
Kestra, so clever and capable
Roden, his ambition is super relatable
My three favorite characters are Jaron and Tobias from The Ascendance Series and Meg from Rescue!
1: Jaron
2: Roden
3: Mott
I have to say read the Ascendance Trilogy in three days and I loved the characters, the plot, and everything, it keep me into it all the way. But when the fourth book–Captive Kingdom was released and I read it, i was pretty disappointed, Jaron was too predictable. Not a lot of the story made sense, and it was weird how Darius was Conner’s son. A lot of the stuff kind of seemed thrown in there to make a story.
It’s only my opinion, however.
But other than that I think your stories are amazing and engaging! keep up your awesome work and know that I am a huge fan!
I will give the podium to…
1. Jaron: THE MAN, THE MYTH, TEH LEGEND (Gold)
2. Imogen: The unsung hero in the series (Silver)
3. Fink: A cinnamon roll and a cinnamon roll (Bronze)
THREE! I love all your characters and I have to pick THREE??
Jaron
Nic
Aralia.
I LOVE all of your character that you made in your book. But since you asked THREE:
Jaron (of course, the mischievous prince)
Roden (strong and loyal)
Mott (loyal to his king and act as a friend/a father)
This is really hard… I love all them.
Well, I hate choosing the MC, but how can I not?
1. Jaron/Sage
And then because I can totally relate to how she feels about books, and then that part when she was talking about them, wow. I loved it and it sent chills through me.
2. Audra
Hmm. This is really hard, but I think I am going to choose
3. Weevil
My three favorite characters are:
1. Sage
2. Mott
3. Weevil
I AM SO EXCITED FOR THE SHATTERED CASTLE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
1. Sage
2. Roden
3. General Radulf
Hmmmmm, I would say:
Jaron
Imogen
Mott
Jaron, Tobias, Imogen
My three favourites are
-Jaron
-Erick
-Harlowe
OMGoodness this is so exciting!! My favorite characters are Jaron, obviously because I love his personality and all of his sassy remarks, Imogen, because she reminds me of myself a lot in some ways because she’s always the voice of reason, and Fink, because he is just so darn adorable and I just love him so much!! He’s almost like the little brother I’ve always wanted :).
BTW thanks so much Mrs. Nielsen for all that you do!! You are amazing, and I’m sure you hear this a lot, but I just wanted to let you know how much I look up to you!! You inspired me to be an author one day, and right now I’m on my journey to being published!!! Thank you!
Thank you, and good luck! I can’t wait until you have your own book published!
Thanks so much!!!
Alright I have to say:
Jaron
Basil
Radulf
That’s a tough request, but my favorites are:
1. Jaron
2. Weevil
3. Fink ^-^
1. Jaron
2. Mott
3. Roden
If I had to choose, itโd be:
1. Jaron
2. Jaron
3. Jaron
yeahโฆ
1) Fink (cause he’s just such an adorkable bean)
2) Mott (He will do absolutely ANYTHING for those he loves)
3) Simon (I’ve always had a soft spot for underprivileged characters who and strong and prove themselves)
AHHH it was so hard to choose just three and I did it but here are some honorable mentions:
Jaron (obviously, who couldn’t love Jaron)
Kestra (Brave enough to admit her own faults and shows that its okay to be lost sometimes
Imogen (so loyal and caring to her friends it can almost be fatal sometimes)
Harlowe (Got that perfect fatherly Dumbledore-or-Chiron-esque that Jaron was seriously missing)
IM SO EXCITED FOR SHATTERED CASTLE!!!
My three favorite characters are:
1) Jaron/Sage
2) Mott
3) Imogen
Only three? This is going to be tough…
1. Jaron. What can I say, he inspired so much of my early writing and was one of the first characters I wholeheartedly fell in love with.
2. Livia. She shows so much strength in the later books, and even in Mark of the Thief her courage is ever present.
3. Connor. He sidesteps the ‘power hungry villain’ archetype and possess some surprising depth *cough cough book 4 twists cough*
My three favorite characters are:
Jaron
Roden
Simon
I’m beyond excited!!
My three favourite, although a tough decision would probably be
1. Jaron – His wit and skills to back make him very likeable and I look forward to the Shattered Castle to delve back into the world of Carthya
2. Erick – Very nice character who is not given enough credit. He took โSageโ the thief in to his band of thieves and although weary gave him a home and risked his life to bring him to the pirates. Upon hearing his death in book 4 I was upset that he had died.
3. Nicolas Calva – Narrowly beating out Roden I choose the protagonist of Mark of the thief because this book series is so great. Although having been a while since reading it I enjoyed seeing Nic beat out his opponents and his grandfather to acquire against all odds the Jupiter stone.
Jaron, Luka, Chaya
To be honest, I like Connor… I know he isn’t a good guy, but you can’t have a story without a villain… ๐
Jaron, Nic, and Simon
My favorite characters are: Jaron, Kestra and Lukas!
My favorite characters are Jaron, Amarinda, and Roden.
JARON
NIC
RADULF
It’s hard to pick just three but probably Jaron, Kestra and Audra
I think it’d have to be Jaron, Tobias, and Fink!
Omg! I am so happy you are doing a giveaway! I’ve never been able to comment but now I can!!!! ๐
My fav characters ( it was hard to pick ) :
โขSage/Jaron because he is a the best!!! Love his attitude and sarcasm!!!
โขAni because she is so confident and I love her determination and she is so funny with weevil!
โขAurelia ( not sure if that’s spelt right! ) Because she is such a badass and is such an amazing character!!!

Duh. ๐
Sage, Imogen, and Mott. ๐
Jaron is an inspiring character who is full of life and is funny. He is not smart but he is however clever. Next is Nic is also a character that I admire. He is witty and has a smart tongue (like most of Jennifer Nielsen’s characters). I love how he rushes into situations without plans (well mostly stupid plans๐)and wants only freedom not power or glory. Last but definitely not least is radulf, Nic’s grandfather. At first he sought power and wealth(along with the simple plan to destroy one of the most powerful civilizations, Rome). Later on though he proves that he cares about his family. He is tough and endures a ton of pain yet he still stands strong(except when he is sitting. Then he is sitting strong I suppose). Sooooo yeah those are my favs and I hope I get picked bye!๐
I’m a huge fan! I love so many characters, but my favorites are probably:
Simon, Basil, and Sage (though there are so many more that I adore)!
Mott Roden and and Jaron
I have a question do jaron and imogen ever have kids
Thanks
Yes, several.
WHat are their names and ages? I think one should be named after Conner. After all, if he hadn’t done anything, Jaron and Imogen would never have met.
Nice
Hi Mrs. Nielsen I have a question. Do Mott and Cregan have last names? It only calls them by their first names in the books. Also, what time period does the Ascendance Trilogy take place?
Servants in Carthya don’t use first names – that’s considered a privilege of someone with wealth and property of their own. The Ascendance books aren’t consistent with a strict timeline of our history, but they’d be roughly the 1400s.
My favourite characters are
Jaron
Fink
and Imogen
Imogen, Tobias, Jaren
OMG.I’ve read through most of the commentes and more than half of the people have Jaron/sage on they’re list more have sage.
Mine is real easy
Jaron(NOT SAGE) -Cause hes awsome and not smart but clever and doesn’t surrender
Nic-I love the courage he has to fight for a place that hasn’t given or helped him in any way
Aurelia-cause I love how shes strong and resilient and tries to know some sense into nic
Late to the party, it’s been a rough month. But, I am going to answer this one because it is fun.
Ani, Mott and Muller from A Night Divided. I am sure some re-reads might change my mind.
Looks like I’m late to the party, but as for my favorite characters, I’d have to say:
Jaron (of course!)
Ani
Roden
But I love them all, and I can’t wait for the Shattered Castle!
Upon retrospect, I realize I TOTALLY missed the characters from the Traitor’s Game, and would have to add Simon … and Kestra … and … oh they’re all just so good! ๐
AHHH the suspense is killing me, I can’t wait to read the book when it comes out! Can’t believe it’s been so long since the first book came out!
I read through all the comments that I haven’t seen:
Jaron-obvi gold
Nic-Narrowly beating Jaron silver
Aurelis-I love that shes not like other girls in rome and is like the only girl who uses a weapon- bronze
Okay, so I know this contest is over already but I couldn’t miss this opportunity to praise your characters Mrs. Nielson. Mine are Jaron, Simon, and Aurelia. Love them all of course…. but if I had to pick!!
It’s too late now, but here are mine:
JARON!!! (favourite character in the whole wide world)
Aurelia! She’s just so smart and tough, definitely one of the coolest characters of Mark of the Thief trilogy.
This might sound crazy but third place goes to Wilta. Sure, she’s evil and all but in a way, she’s as brilliant as Jaron. I love how her character plays all these confusing games and is so bold and clever.
