This is a list of all the antagonists and protagonists in The Power of Five series by Anthony Horowitz. The series chronicles the war between the Old Ones and the Five Gatekeepers. The Five are Matthew Freeman/Jesus, Pedro/Inti, Scott and Jamie Tyler (Flint and Sapling) and Scarlett Adams (Scar, or Lin Mo, the Chinese goddess of the sea). The Old Ones ruled the world for eighty years at the dawn of humanity, but the Five defeated them, and threw them into Hell, causing the demons to await their return for millenia. Two gates were built in between Earth and Hell to keep the Old Ones out - these are the focus of the series and consist of Raven's Gate, and the Nazca Desert, which is the second gate. The only characters to physically appear in all five books are Matthew Freeman, Richard Cole, Pedro, Chaos the King of the Old Ones and Susan Ashwood. Although it may seem like the characters are very clear-cut, some are neutral (for example Paul Adams and the Incas). Even the Old Ones themselves can appear decent and friendly - this is their main weapon such as how Audrey Cheng uses her charisma to influence Scarlett when in human form. It is initially unknown who is behind the power of the Five, but eventually it is revealed to be the Librarian: a God-like being (who in fact equates with God) who is revealed as the father of the Five. The world in which the Librarian lives is strangely dead, with no colour, and is revealed to be a place the Five can use to see each other in dreams when they sleep. Eventually, in the final book, they leave for the Dreamworld forever, hinting that the Dreamworld is actually Heaven. ==Scarlett Adams== Scarlett is the fifth of the Five and is the main protagonist in the fourth book ''Necropolis''. She had a close friend named Aidan (In the books it never claimed to be her boyfriend.) Scarlett is English, and was adopted in New York, British from an orphanage there. She lives in Dulwich. Her adopted parents are Vannessa, who ran a holiday company that put together packages in China and Far East and Paul Adams, who specialised in international business law. Her mother is described as tall, blonde and elegant while her father is described as having the looks of a lawyer with greying hair, a round face and glasses. She bears a strong resemblance, and is described by some, as Lin Mo, the Chinese goddess of the sea. Scarlett's father Paul works for the Nightrise Corporation, at the end of ''Nightrise'' she leaves on a flight to Hong Kong. Scarlett's power is controlling the weather. Scarlett's power was at first thought to be predicting the weather but is proven that she could also control it when she summons a dragon typhoon to escape after she gets captured. This is also noted in Nightrise as Scar summons a rainstorm to mask Inti's arrival. Scarlett is described as being of average height, slim, and being () She also has long black hair, strange bright green eyes and has the soft brown skin of a girl born in Asia. She is also said to have a winning smile, that has gotten her out of trouble on many occasions. Matt also claims that she is very good-looking and kisses her in Oblivion. While her parents are out working, Scarlett is taken care of by a Scottish woman, Mrs Christina Murdoch. She is short, dark-haired and seemed to have no sense of humour at all. Scarlett and Mrs Murdoch had agreed silently that they were never going to be friends although they got on well enough. Scarlett is known to act before she thinks, like when she pushed a teacher (who couldn't swim) fully clothed into the school's swimming pool. Scarlett is shown as brave throughout Necropolis. Her past life is name was also Scarlett, but often called Scar. At the end of Necropolis, Scarlett is shot in the head by a Nightrise agent.
