The turtles and iguanas, while less directly significant, become members of Rose’s Complacency as she learns how to use her magic. The crocodiles work the stock exchange in LOHAC, which Dave has to manipulate to learn how to use his time powers and make the trolls aware of the humans’ game session in the first place. The salamanders’ trade network, the parcel pyxis, becomes essential in PM’s quest to deliver John and Jade’s packages.
