*Jenny "Momma" Beaumont (maiden name O'Connell) The mother of the family. *Gypsy Beaumont The youngest member of the family at three years old and Mibs' younger (and only) sister. In the sequel, his savvy is to disappear and reappear at will. When he appears, however, everyone around him is stronger. His touch is noted as having a strengthening effect on people, although it is not clear whether this is his savvy manifesting early or a part of his personality. He likes hiding in dark, quiet places and does not talk much. * Samson Beaumont Seven years old and Mibs' youngest brother. He loses confidence at the end of the book after nearly destroying a hospital with his savvy, and moves to his aunt and uncle's house where he will cause less damage a year after the initial events take place. * Rocket Beaumont The oldest child of the household at age seventeen.

He gains control of, or "scumbles", his savvy halfway through the book. He is often hot-tempered, which affects how he handles wind and rain, which are his savvy. *Fish Beaumont The fourteen-year-old brother of Mibs. Her savvy is to be able to read the mind of people when they have ink on their body, such as tattoos (though when temporary tattoos eventually fade, like Bobbi's, it is harder for Mibs to "speak" to them). Throughout the book, she reminisces about her family and speculates about her own future, as she feels she is on the cusp of growing up. Starring a cast both fresh and familiar, Scumble brilliantly melds Ingrid Law's signature heart and humor with the legendary Wild West.*Mississippi "Mibs" Beaumont The thirteen-year-old main protagonist. Now he has to keep Sarah from turning family secrets into headlines, stop her father from foreclosing on Uncle Autry's ranch, and scumble his savvy into control so that, someday, he can go home. Just like that, Ledge's beloved normal life is over. Worse, his savvy disaster has an outside witness: Sarah Jane Cabot, reporter wannabe and daughter of the local banker. So his parents decide it's safe to head to Wyoming, where it's soon revealed that Ledge's savvy is much more powerful than anyone thought. īut Ledger Kale's savvy is a total dud - all he does is make little things fall apart. Nine years after Mibs's Savvy journey, her cousin Ledge has just turned thirteen.
