Akim and the previous generation
Akim is the titular hero of the beginning to the story, who is a young Alas peasant man from Ketambe, which is within the Sumatran rainforest. As a child, he suffered from skin colour discrimination not just by school bullies, but also by the rest of society; thus becoming both a brutal nature hero and a sporty survivalist. He has about five surviving siblings, with Zainab and Jamaluddin amongst them. His real first name is Rashid and his marga is Cibekho.
Zainab Cibekho - Long Lost younger sister, herself kidnapped by an unscrupulous gangster mentor of hers, becoming his unwilling dragon.
Jamaluddin Cibekho - Jamaluddin is Akim’s much younger brother. He is perhaps both the father of two girls and the most likely victim of various sexual violations enacted by a corrupt politician’s dangerously amoral wife.
Keumala Cibekho - Keumala is Rashid’s main daughter and heroine of the story, who has a thuggish little sister named Atara.
Atara Cibekho - Keumala’s short tempered little sister.
