Character structure and summaries

Active source

5.2 Part 2, Gathering the Hearts, Chapters 028 to 059

Tier	Characters
Main	Lexa, Clarke, Nancy, Robin, Alex, Piper, Emma, Regina
Sub-main	Raven, Steve, Finn, Rachel, Henry, Theo, Scout, Beta
Secondary	Costia, Anya, Kurt Hummel as legacy/name source, Thea, Diane, Barbara as convoy/material echo
Event-critical / legacy secondary	Costia, Thea, Diane, Kurt Hummel, Steve as absent living thread
Sub-secondary	Road survivors, past families, Storybrooke echoes, living dead, supply-site traces

Notes:

All four core couples are now on the board.
Finchel is very important, but not a core couple.
Henry and Theo are sub-main because they change structure, movement, parenting, and the shape of the group.
