Vita was dragged along for the next few years, constantly moving and forced to grow up too fast in some desperate attempt to help provide for Dad. The whole experience has left Vita ''severely'' embittered and way more cynical and depressed than any fourteen-year-old should be.
* DefrostingIceQueen: Vita is scared, defensive, and hostile toward the inhabitants of the Houses
at so far.first, to the point where she can't even summon the energy to try and look out for Wiggy right after [[spoiler:her brother dies]], but the longer she stays, the more it settles into Vita she ''can't'' just turn away from all her problems anymore, resulting in Geiger finally starting to defrost her.



* KidHero: Her age isn't stated, but from the remarks implying Vita has been too young to get a job for the past few years and the general comments toward her, she can't be any older than sixteen.

to:

* JadeColoredGlasses: As a consequence of having forced herself to grow up too fast after her parents split apart, Vita bitterly admits to Geiger that "I'm fourteen years old, and I've already seen myself working dead-end jobs until the day I die."
* KidHero: Her age isn't stated, but from the remarks implying Vita has been too young to get a job for the past few She's fourteen years old--albeit a ''lot'' more [[WiseBeyondTheirYears experienced and the general comments toward her, she can't be any older mature]] than sixteen.one would expect--and finds herself, however unwillingly at first, in the middle of a war she accidentally starts.

to:

* WiseBeyondTheirYears: Deconstructed. Vita's emotionally stunted and depressed as a result of having ''forced'' herself to grow up faster than she should have, with the overall effect it has on her giving her a cynical, dreary resignation to life at the tender age of fourteen.

!!House Dusk

[[folder:In General]]

The native house of the night-claws.
----
* CastingAShadow: Seemingly their main powers. Their approach in the Wilt is always heralded by shadows, in which they can manifest in and out of to hunt down their prey.
* OurVampiresAreDifferent: Quite vampiric, alongside the day-vamps, but a ''lot'' more monstrous in appearance and with serpentine eyes meant to see in the dark.
* WeakenedByTheLight: The light severely burns them, to the point where it can leave them writhing in agony.

[[folder:Korva]]

The Pitchwraith, and the head of House Dusk.
----
* TheGhost: Hitherto unseen.
* TheManBehindTheMan: Zeil claims Korva is as much in the plot to assassinate Volte and Psyka as he is, but several things fail to corrobate this--mostly the fact that Korva is reputed to be the ''complete'' opposite of Zeil's pragmatic, stab-you-in-the-back villainy, and his failure to show up at either the meeting or any of the ensuing aftermath.

[[folder:Zeil]]

The second-in-command of House Dusk, and a roving night-claw with a prejudice against the other Houses--Noon, in particular.
----
* AffablyEvil: Slips closer to FauxAffablyEvil when he's confronting the rest of Noon and Midnight, but Zeil is courteous and usually jokes around with his cronies even in the middle of a hunt.
* BerserkButton: Volte insinuates Zeil was the one who murdered his beloved "Pye," and this seems to provoke Zeil beyond anything else that's been said to him before. [[spoiler:Enough so that it leads directly to his death.]]
* BoomHeadshot: [[spoiler:With a bow and arrow instead of a gun, but this is how Aile kills him.]]
* DecoyAntagonist: Zeil is introduced more or less the closest thing the story has to a tangible villain and is introduced as someone with a major role to come, [[spoiler:but he dies ten chapters in while taking Volte with him.]]
* EvenEvilHasLovedOnes: Zeil's a murderous savage and known militant in the Houses, but he truly does care about his fellow night-claws. His vendetta stems from Noon's apparent murder of a night-claw named Pye--whose relationship with Zeil is unknown--and Volte accusing Zeil of simply using her death as a cheap excuse makes him ''[[BerserkButton flip]]''. Even Vita picks up there's no way Zeil could have murdered Pye himself.
* LennonSpecs: Wears a pair verbatim called "Lennon specs" in the story itself, to hide his real eyes and seemingly to help him see in the light.
* SmallRoleBigImpact: [[spoiler:Zeil is a minor antagonist in the scheme of things, but it's the successful execution of his plan to assassinate Volte that leads to the provocation of the ensuing war between Houses that frames the conflict for the rest of the story, long after his death.]]
* VillainousFriendship: Shares one with his CoDragons Aiken and Reva. He openly calls them "pals" and gets along with them plenty even in the middle of his hunts. It's hinted Pye used to be among his CoDragons as well, which explains a lot about his ensuing grief.
* WalkingSpoiler: Like Volte, it's hard to discuss him without revealing pertinent details about the plot.

[[folder:Aiken & Reva]]

Zeil's two cronies and members of his pack in House Dusk.
----
* CoDragons: To Zeil, serving as his fellow pack members. It's hinted Pye used to be among them too.
* HalfTheManHeUsedToBe: [[spoiler:Cut in half by Psyka in the six seconds that also claim Volte and Zeil.]]
* ThoseTwoBadGuys: Never seen apart, [[SatelliteCharacter and they in turn revolve around their boss]].
* VillainousFriendship: Share one that's entirely corrobated with Zeil.

* TrueCompanions: One thing House Noon is shown to emphasize is brotherhood and family. Geiger says as such when introducing the tenats of the House and seems almost ''betrayed'' when Vita seems to ignore Volte's death, which causes such a vengeful stir in the rest of the House they're willing to go to war with Dusk over it.

* OneHundredPercentAdorationRating: He's utterly beloved by House Noon and the other Day Vamps

to:

* BlueAndOrangeMorality: Admits he has "trouble putting dots" on Vita since she's still too human for him to gauge.
* EveryoneHasStandards: Warped as Geiger's humanity has become, he's clearly pissed off something ''fierce'' by Vita's apparent apathy to Volte's death and Wiggy's ensuing reaction.
* JerkWithAHeartOfGold: As crude as his pranks are, he stops when it's clear they're causing Vita distress.

[[folder:Volte]]

A teenage girl who wishes for a more exciting and interesting life. She gets her wish, though perhaps not in the way she would like...



* AmbiguousDisorder: It's never named explicitly, but Vita is clearly suffering from some sort of depression given the lack of motivation she shows back on Earth, constant self-beratement and ambiguously suicidal thoughts.

* IJustWantToBeSpecial: As a result of living a life of making ends meet, Vita wants something special to happen to her and to be more than just a girl working dead end jobs...it comes true in all the wrong ways.

* TheQuietOne: Almost the entirety of the first three chapters go without any verbal comment from her. Even when she's in the company of others, Vita tends to say little compared to the others in the Houses. She tends to talk the most when she's flustered or panicked.
