Official Biography: Nicole is the second of Doctors Leyla and Paul Masterman’s three children. Nicole’s parents made a name for themselves about 30 years ago during a series of studies that led to the discovery of magic, they’ve been the foremost experts in the field ever since. Nicole was a bright young girl, but was never terribly motivated due to being overshadowed by her famous scientists parents and genius older brother, Martin. Like her parents, Nicole is interested in paranormal science and has a Bachelor’s degree in Paranormal Biology from SouthSide Virginia Technical University (SSVT) where her parents are professors.

These days she’s a clerk at an ABC store and spends her off time being a geek with her friends. Her main hobbies are playing video games and watching obscure films, she also enjoys cooking and mixing alcoholic drinks.

After graduating she decided to stay in River’s Crossing since all her friends are there and it’s much cheaper than moving to a larger city.

As a general rule, Abigail and Nicole get along pretty well, despite the fact that they don’t understand each other.


 * The Glorious War of Sisterly Rivalry: Averted. Most of the time.

Sergio Quezada


Official Biography: Nicole met Sergio several years ago through a blind date set up by Abigail and her then-boyfriend Greg. She found him very charming and mysterious, the sort of guy she might be interested in if she were to be interested in anyone. After going on a few dates he disappeared, only to reappear again recently. Nicole still finds him charming and mysterious; Ian thinks he’s a creeper.

As the oldest vampire in the city and surrounding area, Carmilla has a certain level of authority over the other vampires living nearby.

 * Reused Character Design: First appeared in Cuanta Vida as a RED Spy.

 * Who You Gonna Call?

Liam Williamson


Official Biography: Liam is Gabry’s aforementioned partner (both in crime and the domestic sense). He runs most of the practical end of the business, such as the paperwork and finances, he also makes the scones. Unlike Gabry, Liam is quite stoic and standoffish, preferring to stay at home and read than go out on “adventures”, or at least that’s how he says he feels.

 * Reused Character Design: First appeared in Cuanta Vida as a BLU Sniper.
 * The Stoic
 * Invisible to Gaydar

Seth Belthis


Official Biography: Seth lives in the plantation house with Sergio and the rest of his entourage. Sergio apparently found him useful for something but he’s mostly just a lazy jerk. He likes to push around mortals and other vampires weaker than him but is a complete wimp around anyone who could pose a real threat.


 * The Brute
 * Red Eyes, Take Warning
 * Satellite Character: For now, possibly.

Lily Renoir


Official Biography: Lily also lives in Sergio’s plantation house and is probably the one who originally acquired it. She’s one of the oldest vampires in River’s Crossing and has something of a superiority complex partially due to it. She gets along well with Sergio mostly because he’s one of the only people she views as an equal. She also has some kind of history with Carmilla, and hates her as a result.


 * Red Eyes, Take Warning
 * Satellite Character: Same as Seth.

Greg


Briefly seen in the prologue, introduced as Abigail’s then-boyfriend. By the time the main story occurs, he’s another vampire who lives with Sergio.


 * Chekhov's Gunman: Introduced Sergio to Nicole because Sergio “really wanted an elf” and Greg himself wanted to be turned.
 * I Just Want to Be Special: Why Greg wanted to be turned. It's not very effective.
 * No Last Name Given
 * Red Eyes, Take Warning: Subverted. He's not exactly intimidating...
 * Satellite Character: Deliberate, unlike Seth and Lily. He’s not even tagged on the pages he appears on, and only characters with such tags get blurbs on the official cast page, hence the lack of an official biography.

Doctor Anton Möller


Official Biography: Anton is a talented, if inexperienced doctor at the local hospital. Gabry and Liam seem to have roped him into treating any injuries sustained in their unusual line of work. As such he’s pretty well versed in illnesses and injuries that may be magical in nature or monstrous in origin. He wishes he was a pediatrician instead.


 * The Medic
 * Reused Character Design: Originally appeared in Cuanta Vida as a RED Medic.

Bunnie Gibson


Official Biography: Bunnie is the owner of the appropriately named Bunnie’s Bar and Grill where Cynthia and Jeremy work. She decided to open it after her daughter Kimmie was born with features resembling that of a field mouse. There are few job opportunities for Beastmen, even in a city where they are relatively common, so Bunnie wanted to help in whatever small way she could. She is also somewhat of an activist for equal rights for beastmen. She views her employees as surrogate children of sorts.

"Jeremy (to Cynthia): She keeps telling me to marry you."
 * Benevolent Boss: She’s concerned about Cynthia walking home alone at night, and tries to call Nicole to take her home.
 * Shipper on Deck

Kimmie Gibson


Official Biography (originally attached to Bunnie's): Kimmie attends a local private school. She is very shy and wants to be a dancer when she grows up.


 * Satellite Character: Only for now, having only appeared on a couple pages without dialogue.

Jeremy Lawson


Official Biography: Jeremy is originally from somewhere in New England and is the son of a fairly prominent surgeon. He’s somewhat disappointed his parents by not wanting to be a doctor of some type as well. Like Cynthia, he wants to be a writer and they sometimes critique each other’s work.

"Cynthia: You just need to tell him about your little crush."
 * Adaptation Dye Job: His hair is blond in Cuanta Vida. It's bleach here.

 * Most Writers Are Writers
 * Reused Character Design: First appeared in Cuanta Vida as a BLU Scout.

"Jeremy: I'm gonna call Jordi and add sexual frustration to this already terrible night."
 * Blatantly stated in chapter two:

Jordi Bertrand


Official Biography: Jordi works at the same ABC store as Nicole and is frequently terrorized by her pyromancy. He sometimes hangs out with her and the rest of her friends outside of work, and doesn’t seem to have many friends of his own. In his spare time he’s a reasonably good photographer and also plays guitar a little bit so long as no one is listening.

Oh, and he drives a motorcycle. Jeremy thinks it it totally badass; Nicole thinks it is too badass for a guy like Jordi.

 * Cool Bike
 * Reused Character Design: First appeared as the protagonist of Cuanta Vida – the BLU Spy.
