Heroine and Family
Heroine
Heroine/Protagonist/Main Character ("MC")
The player character, a Chinese-American bike shop mechanic who semi-recently moved back to Las Vegas after dropping out of med school.
- Afraid of Needles: In Malakai's route, her fear of needles is mentioned to be one of the many reasons she didn't make it through med school.
- Demonic Possession: In Onyx's route, she's possessed by demons multiple times due to them targeting her for some reason.
- Eating the Eye Candy: Indulges in this in every route.
- Fashionable Asymmetry: Her shirt collar is cut diagonally and bares one shoulder.

- Heroic Lineage: In Wrath's route, it's revealed that her father's side of the family have long been entrusted with being the only thing standing in the way of Ograth escaping and regaining his full power.
- Performance Anxiety: She tends to get overwhelmed if a lot of eyes are on her. It stems from the night her father left, when she looked for him in the crowd just before she was to perform on her bike and couldn't spot him.
- Rings of Death: Once she starts training to fight alongside the troupe, she uses chakrams.
- Wrench Wench: She's a bike mechanic.

- Education Mama: Downplayed, but she definitely doesn't approve of the heroine having dropped out of med school, and will jump on any hint that she'd be interested in going back.
- Locked Out of the Loop: The heroine takes great pains to keep her from finding out about the demons.
- Shipper on Deck: For the heroine and her love interest in every route, though in Wrath's route she's initially more interested in setting her up with Yvette.
- Unnamed Parent: Her name was not initially revealed in-series, though it was confirmed in
a Q&A.
Heroine's Dad
Kevin
- Daddy Had a Good Reason for Abandoning You: He did it because he didn't want the heroine or her mom to get pulled into the world of demons. This didn't end up helping in the long run, though, and the harmful impact that his departure had on the heroine and her mom is not minimized by the narrative.
- Disappeared Dad: He left when the heroine was a kid.
- Heroic Lineage: His family has long been entrusted with being the only thing standing in the way of Ograth escaping and regaining his full power.
- Unnamed Parent: His name was not initially revealed in-series, though it was confirmed in a Q&A.

- The Leader: She leads the group both on stage as ringmaster and off stage as an assassin.
- My Greatest Failure: She was indirectly responsible for the deaths of the previous Pride, Lust, Envy (Ripley), and Gluttony (Malakai's younger brother), and for Yvette's defection to the side of the demons, and it weighs on her heavily.

- Red Baron: Her real name is Esperanza, but she's only ever called by her stage name.
- Red Is Violent: She's associated with the color red and the sin of Wrath.
- Statuesque Stunner: She stands at 5'9" and as a love interest is intended to be attractive.
- Super-Strength: She's plenty muscular, but even that doesn't explain how she crumpled a bicycle frame like tinfoil when rescuing the heroine from being crushed at the beginning of her route.

- Dual Wielding: He uses two swords.

- Gay Option: Alongside Malakai, she was one of the second set of love interests released.

- Papa Wolf: He's Avi's legal guardian, and is very protective of him.

- Gay Option: The third in the series.
- Hope Crusher: In Wrath's second season, she seems to be in danger from the demons, and Wrath wants to do everything she can on the slight hope that it's not a trap and Yvette really can be redeemed.

- Hypocrite: She hates Wrath for being indirectly responsible for the deaths of most of the former troupe, who she considered to be her family, but has no problem with hurting Cal, who was one of the only other survivors of the former troupe, or with allying herself with Vinca, who personally murdered the former Pride.
