Your Character
Erin becomes your character's first friend when you meet her in your first theatre lesson. In Chapter 7 she is also your friend date for Homecoming. She gives you advice about theatre and your potential love interests.

Your Twin
Although they had already briefly met, they talk for the first time in Chapter 7 while Your Character gets ready for Homecoming. They get along well, given that your twin will comment that he/she thinks that Erin is cool because she's good with dogs (if you adopted the dog in Chapter 6) and also a fan of the Stingrays basketball team. If you take one of the premium scenes in Chapter 8 and Chapter 11, you can choose to pair your twin with Erin to be a couple. In this case, your twin will bring Erin flowers in Chapter 14. In Book 2, Erin becomes your twin's campaign manager for student body president.

Trivia

 * The name Erin is of Celtic, Gaelic and Irish origin, which means "Ireland".
 * The surname Ward is of English origin and means "marsh".
 * In Book 1, Chapter 7, her story about her freshman homecoming slightly varies depending on your and your twin's gender. If you are female and your twin is male, she tells you about her ex-boyfriend. If you are male and your twin is female, she tells you about her ex-girlfriend. In both cases, she was taller than her ex.
 * In the same chapter, if Your Character asks her during a game of Would You Rather? whether she would rather date Matt Rodriguez or Victoria Fontaine, her answer also depends on whether you are male or female. For a female MC, she replies, "Matt. He's not my usual type, but he seems like a cool person. I'd rather be Victoria", and for a male MC, she replies, "Victoria. I could never decide if I wanted to date her or be her".
 * Alternatively, if you ask her if she would rather backpass across Asia or Europe, she will choose Asia. It's then revealed that she had an anime phase in middle school.
 * In Book 3, it is mentioned that Erin is also on the softball team.
