Carondolet, Cushing and Sloane: Aggie’s parents; they were kicked out of the Conclave for a time following her death for showing anti-Committee sentiment and calling for the White Vote. They returned to serve on the council after Lawrence Van Alen was made Regis. The couple perished during the Rio massacre.

Carter, Muriel (“Muffie”) Astor: One of most popular Blue Blood socialites, she was educated at Miss Porter’s and Vassar and enjoyed a successful career in public relations before marrying Dr. Sheldon Carter.
