Annalisa
Annalisa is your older adoptive sister, who sneaks you into the Royal Masquerade Ball via forged invitation. She fought for years to petition her House to join the court, to be an advocate for the commoners. When she becomes indisposed, it becomes your duty to see it through.

King/Queen-Regent
King/Queen-Regent is one of your love interests. Although your daydreams involve him/her as a Masked Man/Woman, you first meet him/her at the Ball where you observe a gaggle of admirers vying for his/her attention.

Crown Shield
Crown Shield is one of your love interests. You first find him/her staring at you in the Ball, trying to determine whether or not you belong there. During your House's debut, he/she helps you obtain information by listening to the gossip around you as you two dance. In Chapter 17, if you pursued him/her, you have to choose between him/her and the crown. Crown Shield is fine with whatever you choose and remains by your side even if you choose to marry Fabian and therefore have to keep your relationship secret.

Fabian Rhys
In Chapter 17, you choose to make him king to avoid a civil war which may lead to death for many Cordonians. He offers to marry you in order for you to stay queen but doesn't force you since he knows you love someone else. You can help him when he first meets his mother Elise. If you choose to marry him, you will discuss the matter of a heir on the way to meet her. You can say that you could have his child or that he can have children with someone else. He will be relieved if you choose the second option. He doesn't have any problem that you keep seeing your chosen love interest.

Trivia

 * A version of Your Character is shown on the cover of The Royal Masquerade.
 * This book reuses three female faces from Open Heart and one face from A Courtesan of Rome.
 * Your surname depends on the House you choose.
 * She will share the same forename as Julia Mason from High School Story, Book 3, if the player decides to keep her default name.
 * It is mentioned (by Zya in Chapter 8) that she was found by Annalisa's parents 20 years ago. Together with the information that she was a baby when the woman in a cloak left her in front of the door (mentioned by the Oracle of Past in Chapter 7), this hints at her being 20-21 years old.
 * Her fate is left unknown at the end of Chapter 16, after being stabbed by Renza Fierro.
