* OlderThanTheyLook: Canonicaly is over 700 years old, ''at least''. She doesn't look to be more than 20.
* ParalyzingFearOfSexuality: She would like to be intimate with Jon, but the first and last time she had sex was Molag Bal brutally raping her in order to turn the poor girl into a vampire, so she cannot handle more than kissing. Though oddly, she's got absolutely no problem stripping in front of him.

* CharacterExaggeration: Her dislike of Jon is cranked up several notches compared to canon, resulting in her being a much colder woman.

* OriginalCharacter: In canon, 'Enzo Vlast' is a hidden final boss who only appears when you reach level 80, with no details about him other than he is a redguard. Here, he was an incredibly talented warrior and yet absolutely bored out of his mind, so challenged the Last Dragonborn to a duel to die well. Instead, after one of the most grueling and prolonged battles of Jon's life, he spared the man's life and Enzo swore UndyingLoyalty to his saviour. He serves as Jon's spymaster, bodyguard, and babysitter, although he is seen more as a best friend/favourite uncle by the younger man.
