Nando--He was always there for me. When I was attacked, he was there for me even though he'd been shot. He always took care of me, putting my needs first and respecting my wishes, even when it wasn't what he wanted. I have never felt safer than when I was with him.

Heaven--We met completely by accident one night when I wandered into the Rose and Shield. Since then, she's become my best friend. She's also the one that first introduced me to all this strangeness. She was the one who sent me with Laughs. I'm sure she meant well, but she couldn't have known how that would trun out. She went into torpor, and I was never able to find where. When I found that she was awake, I was happy to have my sister back. Though, now that she handed me over to Eryk, I have to wonder if she's really as trustworthy as I thought...

Papa Kolenkov--He's sort of my Guardian Angel. I met him on the street one night and he offered to make me a case for my violin. Since then, he's become sort of a surrogate father to me. He calls me his Davushka, which is what he used to call his daughter, who he lost years ago. Even though Laughs forbid me from seeing him, he was the first person to find me in the hospital.

Laughs--My ex...He took me away from Heaven's place and helped me get away from being a ghoul. I care about him, and I truly believed he was the best chance I had for a normal life...but when he disappeared after I was attacked, it was time to move on and accept that life would never be normal.

Damien--Laughs and I found him on the beach, going through his first change. We took him back to Heaven's, cleaned him up, and Laughs was teaching him. He really is a sweet kid, and even though he vanished shortly after Laughs did, I hope he is doing okay.

Azreal--I met this gentleman one day when I was out hunting in the forest...he's been living out there all alone for years. He came into the city to look around, but decided he didn't like it and went back. When I decided to leave Laughs, he took me in and trained me so I could defend myself better. I'm not sure I understand where he went, but it was something he had to do, and I have to respect that.

Lilah--I met her through Edge. I never really felt comfortable with her....maybe it was that time she shot me....not saying I didn't have it coming, but after that, I was always a little bit afraid of her. I'm not really sure what happened to her, just one day, Edge came back around, and she wasn't with him. I can't say she had the most positive impact on my life, but I did learn a great deal from her.

Eryk Stormbright--I wandered into his club, just looking for a new place to hang out. He and I got to talking, and I found out Eryk knew Heaven, and that she's awake. Wasn't long before he embraced me. Apparently, Heaven trusted him enough to give him her blessing on that. I wasn't as sure as she was, but things always become clear with time. He sent me to kill a Ductus, knowing I had a snowball's chance of actually pulling it off. I went to him trusting that he'd help me, and he turned on me. Even with that, though, he has transformed my life more than any other.

Grace Farley--She didn't get the choice like I did, some Malk embraced her, and she doesn't even know who. She was a sweet kid, and like a baby sister. If I ever find out who embraced her, I'll kill him.

Edge--My dearest friend. He'd always been there for me, letting me have my freedom, but showing up just when I needed him the most. I'll never understand how we became such close friends. One night, he had me pinned against the wall biting me, the next we were doing tequila shooters at Fetish. I know it disappointed him to find I'd been embraced, I just hope he can forgive what I've had to do since.
