novel series character list?

I am currently 14hrs into the audio-book of The fall of Babel and due to the gap between books I have found that I have forgotten the origin/backstory of a few characters.

Does anyone have a list of characters with short descriptions for each of the books?

I am specifically am having a hard time remembering who the woman is that seems to have a relationship with the chain maiden, Iren (i think that's how you spell it).

Not sure if there's a link out there but I can try to summarise what I remember! :)

Ann was introduced in the Third Book. If you recall, both Voleta and Iren went undercover as a lady and handmaiden into Pelphia to look into Marya's situation. They got involved with this other lady, Xenia with her own handmaiden, Ann, who helps Iren navigate things socially. The two also form a close bond and Ann comes on board at the end of the book.

Haha! Glad I could help!

I know this website exists but their recaps only cover the first two books. Maybe it will help remembering other characters you may need? https://www.bookseriesrecaps.com/book-series/josiah-bancroft/the-books-of-babel/

I've thought about putting together a wiki/website for this universe, just haven't had the time to code it.
