Cherry's Dramatis - The Humans
Fatima Merali: The head witch of the Order of the Silver Crescent's resident coven, Fatima was the one who brought Cherry into the fold and made her aware of the fact that the man who has cursed her was, in fact, a vampire. Fatima's family has served the Order for generations, her mother as leader of the coven before and her grandmother before that and so on, down the line. Fatima is a strong individual with very fierce opinions and morals. Since she and Cherry share most of these ideals, they got along great. Although Fatima is the leader, she is not the most powerful witch in the Order, which is occasionally a point of contention. Nevertheless, the majority of the other Human witches are fiercely loyal, Cherry included.
Cardinally Firman: Perhaps Cherry's first friend, Cardinally was the self-appointed leader of the tramp children that took Cherry in after she left foster care. Cardinally was one of the few children in the group who was not an orphan or child of a broken home. Her father was the owner of the Beigor opera house and as such, Cardinally knew the ins and outs of the theatre which eventually led to Cherry's intense passion for music. It was Cardinally who dubbed Cherry with her nickname and she has kept it ever since. Additionally, Cardinally was one of the first "bird children" who also became a red bird, like Cherry. As the children grew up, Cardinally became increasingly unstable, due, as it turned out, to the presense of vampires. Despite her occasionally off-center attitude, Cardinally developed imto perhaps the most powerful witch of the group.
Emily Staret: Another witch in the Order. As a child, Emily and her entire family were pulled into the underworld and put through a decidedly hellish ordeal. Although they were eventually rescued, the emotional scars left on Emily's psyche would last her for all time. She grew up an outsider, completely devoid of life. Eventually, she was discovered by the Order, who realized that Emily had returned to the world with traces of underworld magic on her, making her in essense, a powerful necromancer. She was brought into the Order, and taught how to manage her powers. The emotional pains is still healing for her.
Phoebe and Seki: Two of Cherry's traveling companions from the Order. They went on various missions across Hyrule together and eventually, Cherry and Phoebe became lovers. It turned out, however, that Phoebe was also having an affair with Seki. Eventually, Phoebe and Seki ran off together to elope, leaving behind their mission, the Order, and poor Cherry.
Blossom: When Cherry joined up with the other tramp children, she formed many friendships that eventually faded. Her relationship with one particular girl, another one of the bird children, would go on for a long while. Currently Blossom, the girl has gone through many names, including Michele, Ursela, Rachel, Strawberry, and Mimi. Like Cherry, Blossom turns into a red bird and enjoys traveling constantly, never settling down for too long. Unlike Cherry, Blossom's journeys are all made in the pursuit of a "good time." She is flakey, promiscuous, free-spirited, and above all, kind.
James Miller: James is the self-proclaimed "king of the dancing jesters." A runaway from a life of servitude to an evil queen, he ended up a sensation in Hyrule. On occasion, Cherry writes songs for him. She enjoys going to see him perform in taverns and often tries to imitate his unique and exciting dances.
Velvet Daae: Another one of the bird children, Velvet and her older sister were orphaned at a young age, at which point they both took up positions in the opera house. Velvet eventually joined Cardinally, Cherry, and the other tramp children, getting into trouble with the vampire community below. When the dust finally settled and the children were all restored to some sense of normalcy, Velvet became a ballerina, a feat Cherry was never able to accomplish due to her weight. It was because of this, that Cherry would end up dedicating her life to more rustic dancing. A friendly rivalry formed between Cherry's style of dancing and Velvet's style, but the two of them remained friends. Velvet eventually abandoned magic all together, but she had the second form of a blue bird.
Cardinally Firman: Perhaps Cherry's first friend, Cardinally was the self-appointed leader of the tramp children that took Cherry in after she left foster care.
