Your Character
You have known Annalisa since you were a little girl, both of you loving the other with no regard for bloodlines. Even though you were sent to the Royal Palace Library to be a scribe, she sent you packages including books to read, the last being The Last Dance. In Chapter 1, she comes to get you, bringing you back home and dressing you for the Royal Masquerade. When she falls unconscious and unable to wake, you decide to take up the Head of House mantel to fight for her dream and wish of making your House noble.

Vasco
Vasco has been Annalisa and your House's steward for many years. She trusts him to hold the magical charm gifted to the House by Queen Kendra, the Jade Mirror, which he presents to you. At the Royal Masquerade, he accidentally gives her the wrong invitation for the queen, and upon finding you in the throne room with the assassin, he helps you bring Annalisa home.

Zya
In Chapter 1, when Zya looks down upon your entrance into their home, Annalisa reminds her that she leeches from Annalisa's success and should hold her tongue. In Chapter 3, Zya tells you that Annalisa's blind doting love for you has always been one of her weaknesses.

Queen Kendra
While her parents amassed land and wealth and became a family of “some renown” (according to Kana), Annalisa amassed the queen's favor and Queen Kendra gifted your house the Jade Mirror. It was at the Royal Masquerade Ball that Annalisa was to invite the queen to the House's Noble Debut after the queen recognized the House as one of Cordonia's Noble Houses. For the first time in generations, a new family would ascend into the ranks of nobility and be an advocate for the commoners. However, tragedy struck and Queen Kendra was unable to see it through.

Trivia

 * Her character model resembles Theresa Holland from Most Wanted, Book 1 and Claire Pierce from the Rules of Engagement and The Freshman and its sequels.
