Emmy Willis
- Gender:
- Female
- Age:
- 18
- Orientation:
- Straight
Emmy hates vampires. Loathes learning about their existence, rituals and "sacrifices". So, it would come as a surprise to her too if you told her she'd save one. Despite her helpful nature, she tends to stay away from people, believing that all friendships are transitory and will only end in pain. Headstrong, stubborn and perhaps a little too sassy for her own good, she drops herself into a little danger along the way. From the moment Emmy began investigating into the country-wide ***s known as "The Carvings", she made herself a target. For disaster, for agony, for forging friendships, for death.

Matt Simmons
- Gender:
- Male
- Age:
- 18
- Orientation:
- Straight
The Golden Boy. He who can do no wrong. The over-achiever. Mr Perfect -- Matt's heard them all. Although not part of a healthy upbringing, every student in school would easily name him as King. Funny, with a happy-go-lucky attitude and a big heart, he and Emmy aren't exactly friends, but that's all about to change when she breaks his friend's nose. Suddenly, Matt is all about Emmy's life and trusts her with his. Now that you mention it... he did suggest helping her with solving the ***s.
-
Arden
- Gender:
- Male
- Age:
- 24
- Orientation:
- Straight
Do you remember reading somewhere in an ancient text that vampires, fiends of the night, had to all be named something intimidating? Well, apparently, Arden didn't get the memo. Although he lacks a soul, he is resourceful as he is cunning. He and Emmy forge an alliance after she saves his life from a group of OneLifers, a debt he believes he owes. Calling her out when she needs it most, Arden didn't think that he'd fall for the pathetic human. When you work in such close proximity to a person -- every day, no less -- feelings are bound to stir. It's what you do about them that matters.
-
Tam Willis
- Gender:
- Female
- Age:
- 28
- Orientation:
- Bisexual
A single mother, and recently guardian of her 18-year-old sister, Tam doesn't have it easy. Along with raising her genius son, she must deal with the "robot" that is Emmy. The complete opposite of her sister, she is loving and greets most with open arms. In a way, this can be seen as naivety, but Tam assures most people are better than how we see them. Her job, although unconventional and illegal, provides her family well and while she may not be proud of it, she believes it will be worth it when her son grows up. When he does, she says she will go wherever he goes. So, where does that leave Emmy?
-
Holly Oates
- Gender:
- Female
- Age:
- 17
- Orientation:
- Straight
There aren't enough ways to describe Holly Oates. While known for being a party girl and adventurous, she somehow made the title of Matt Simmons’ best friend. The reason is unknown to many, but they gave up searching for it, anyway. Curvy, raven-haired with aqua eyes to pierce straight into your soul, nobody truly survives a day with Holly. You can't tell if she's trying to be your friend or playing her cards. A catalyst to everything Emmy has ever known, it's matter of whether or not she will ever accept the misanthropic catastrophe.
-
Darren Meyes
- Gender:
- Male
- Age:
- 33
- Orientation:
- Straight
Emmy's first crush. One of her sister's oldest clients. Darren has many names. "Stud" is right there with them, we bet. While mostly quiet, he shows that he cares for the girls by buying them treats before he arrives for an appointment. This may be the reason why they crumble like cookies under his stare. After a misunderstanding with Tam, Darren tries to retain her sister's approval. And with a few more stolen glances, a few shared Custard Creams, why would you try to intervene with fate?
-
Nena
- Gender:
- Female
- Age:
- 23
- Orientation:
- Homosexual
The sister to Arden, Nena defies the reality that vampires don't have souls. A kind, thoughtful and inspiring person, damn anyone who says that someone so beautiful in nature doesn't deserve happiness in this life and the next. An act-first, think later person, Nena often finds herself in the brunt of it all. Indulging in women from all over the world, she is open about her past and relationships. Which, as you can guess, tests the foundation of Emmy and Arden's friendship.
-
Zach Willis
- Gender:
- Male
- Age:
- 7
Son to Tam and Emmy's adorable little nephew, he is the perfect child. While smarter than every other boy and girl in his grade, his playfulness and immaturity show his real age. Looking up to his aunt, Zach would fall into a sea inhabited by sharks to see her smile. Perhaps it's why when it comes to Emmy making friends, he's all too willing to invite anyone into his beautiful home.
-
Paolo Vasquez
- Gender:
- Male
- Age:
- 18
- Orientation:
- Bisexual
Meeting Emmy briefly at a party, he is immediately interested in getting to know her. His intentions are unknown but, according to Matt, they can't be good. Comforting Emmy when she needs it most, she quickly determines that he's going to be a part of her life. However, when it comes to a ***-measuring contest between him and Matt, she realises it isn't so easy having friends.
