**Sarah Osborne** is a witch and a supporting character throughout the story routes in Mystery Spell who is known to have secrets about the Bartholy family. In Peter's route, she serves as the first second love interest in the first season and is the first female of the series to become a love interest as a contrast to the males. She is later replaced by Haku Kobayashi as the second love interest in the second season. She is also the main love interest in her own mini-series.

## Appearance

Sarah has shoulder length dark brown hair in a wavy style, light tanned skin and hazel eyes. When she activates her magic powers as a witch, her eyes became teal.

She has seven outfits on her portrait while two of her new outfits are revealed in her mini-series.

Her initial appearance was her casual outfit; a brown long vest with a white sleeveless midriff underneath with several designs which shows off her belly, a dark olive short denim shorts with a black belt with white studs and black boots. She also carries a light khaki sling bag on her right and wears two loose necklaces on her neck. Her shoulder length black hair is tied in two loose braids in each sides and wears a silver dangling earrings and a silver ring on the right middle finger. In the trailer of Drogo's third and final season of Chapter 10, her shoulder-length dark brown hair is loose without wearing her danggling earrings while wearing her main outfit.

Her second and most well known outfit is her Mystery Spell school uniform as the sleeves had white folded sleeves. She also wears a gold crescent moon shaped dangling earrings in each sides, a brown watch on her left wrist and a ring on her left middle finger. In the third and final season, the emblem at the left side of her uniform is missing.

Her third outfit is a white long sleeved cotton dress and a matching sandals. She also wears a gold necklace on her neck. She is not seen wearing her dangling earrings.

Her fourth outfit was either her sleeping attire or her swimwear, a loose short sleeved olive midriff which shows off the strap on her red lingerie bra on the right side with different designs, a red micro bikini while barefoot. Her shoulder length black hair was tied in tangles while wearing her gold hoop earrings, a gold necklace with a large round pendant, and a gold anklet on her right ankle. In the mini-series whenever she gets intimate with the player, Sarah is no longer seen in her short-sleeved olive midriff to reveal her red lingerie bra to match up her red micro bikini and her shoulder-length dark brown hair is now loose.

Her fifth outfit which was unused in all other story routes. She wears a gray V-neck long sleeve shirt with a black sports bra underneath, brownish khaki cargo jeans and black hiking boots. She also wears a black necklace on her neck. In the last part of Chapter 8 at the second season of Sebastian's route, she wears this outfit, and she covers her entire head and neck in a long red keffiyeh, and the player mistook her jeans being her hiking pants. She also retains her gold crescent moon shaped dangling earrings from her school outfit. She later wears this when they infiltrated at the Arcane and was forced to escape upon learning of Viktor's attempt of killing them both.

Her sixth outfit where she had an intimate dance with the player on her story route during the witch's party, she wears a black sleeveless top to reveal her cleavage, a matching skirt with large triangular holes in each sides to show her legs and black heels. She retains her look from her school outfit but without her gold crescent moon shaped dangling earrings.

Her seventh outfit is her new casual outfit and also seen in the official trailer of her mini-series and its Chapter 2. She wears a dark red and green fashionable shirt with long puffy sleeves and white and purple tile designs resembling mosaic windows, medium blue jeans with a brown belt along with a silver "Chanel" buckle and brown short boots. Her sling bag is now tan instead of brown. This outfit later became her new casual outfit at the third and final season of Drogo's route.

## Personality

Sarah is described as a calm, witty and fun-loving woman as the player initially describes her throughout Drogo's story. In reality, her true personality shows her for being optimistic, cheerful and always extremely cautious when the player works with the Bartholys.

Therefore, she is also extremely secretive whenever she hides her hidden secrets about the Bartholy family especially when the player is always asking her about them. She also warns the player after she discovers their nature as vampires and also became stubborn when the player decided to run away out of the class as she noticed her true nature as a witch like she was as currently stated by Professor Sebastian Jones when he discusses about vampires and witches.

In Peter's story, Sarah was revealed to be a lesbian when she has a crush on the player especially when she comforts her not to follow Peter. In Chapter 7, she confesses her feelings to the player during the masquerade party. Therefore, she also explains to the player about her family ancestors of witches after she found out about the old feud between the Osbornes and the Bartholys, especially Drogo, Peter and Nicolae's adopted father Viktor Bartholy on one of her books at her home knowing the Bartholys are a family of vampires. At the second season, she can be emotional at times when mentioning about her grandmother's disappearance until in Chapter 4 that her grandmother is not yet disappeared like the other women. Unlike the player in James' story who is capable of lying, Sarah wasn't capable of lying as Cassandre had ordered her to make lies to anyone else which forces her to do her task and their actions also cause the player to get mad at them. Although in Chapter 10, she became frustrated and upset towards her grandmother Cassandre who does not accept for who she is and her relationship with Dorothy Rakoczy due to her dislike about same-sex relationships, showing her rebellious side to her grandmother.

In Drogo's story, Sarah almost kisses the player while she stays at her apartment which resulted in the player to leaving immediately, after showing her strange behavior for being a lesbian. In the second season after Drogo managed to transformed her into a vampire due to her grandmother's wishes and their love for each other, Sarah became much more of an antagonist going as far as making Samantha cry when she officially dates Loan and talks back to Sebastian during his class leading him to rebuff her. This also happens when she angrily scolds the player about her actions when she demonstrates her powers as both a witch and a vampire by taking Samantha out using her telekinetic powers and mind reading ability to add insult on her injury rather than being satisfied of teaching Samantha some manners in respect. At the end of Chapter 6, she was teaming up with Drogo, Peter and the player to investigate about the package which was sent by Viktor Bartholy, finally overcoming her true dislike to them. During Chapter 7 in order to restrain the player's anger due to Samantha's constant remarks and her awful behavior, Sarah reveals that she hung out with Loan at the bar where he was on a drinking spree in which he told her that he didn't like Samantha while in a drunken state causing her to have an argument with him. Sarah was also surprised to hear from the player about the Arcanes which are witches who were transformed as the first vampire-witch hybrids in ancient times and also discovers the player is able to use fire magic which she summons a small phoenix which was witnessed by both Drogo and Nicolae. She also takes part along side her grandmother Cassandre, Drogo, Conrad and the player in battling Viktor at the final chapter of the story. During the Christmas limited extra love scene, Sarah is able to make a love potion when the player tries to spend romantic time with either Drogo or Sebastian whether she succeeded in putting Sebastian under the love spell or getting backfired when most people in Mystery Spell are under the love spell, leading Cassandre to punish her for her mistakes. In the third and final season, Sarah is revealed to recruit any witches to battle her grandmother Cassandre due to her greed for power and using Viktor's powers as an Original vampire to destroy any supernaturals but other witches were unmoved or unconvinced on making alliance towards her. She also became saddened upon learning about the player's nightmare, stating that her nightmare might be prophetic when her grandmother begins her murderous spree using Viktor's powers.

In the near end of Peter's story shows that Sarah was disappointed and panicked as the Descendant of the Templars were attacking their house since the Bartholys rescue the player from their torture as she follows both Peter and the player to Paris to warn them about Mystery Spell being wrecked with havoc by the same group who wrecked her house. But on the second season, she sided with Nicolae's group in the battle against the Descendant of the Templars and was very concern to Dorothy.

In Sebastian's story, it was revealed that Sarah hated when the player lied about the secret meeting with Sebastian. Therefore, her cautiousness towards the Bartholys caused her and the player to have a fall out before stomping away angrily. Although, the player did this because of her current job as an *au pair* when she mentions Lorie Bartholy and both her spoiled nature personality and her violent streak. Because of her interest in Sebastian, Sarah finally shows her doubt and envy towards the player after Sebastian tells her to meet him in his office about the books that she used to borrow from him and going as far as wanting to steal the player's place after Nicolae initially refused to let her go to Sebastian's expeditions until he changes his mind and to Sebastian's disappointment after he chose her to go with him. Their tensions on getting in the position to help Sebastian on his expeditions in Peru caused them to break their friendship. But she later gives the position back to the player knowing that Sebastian had wanted for her to fulfill her dreams as an archaeologist like he is. In near end of Chapter 9, she also has an interest on Esteban Dias which leads him to strike up his friendship with her. In the second season, it was revealed that Sarah became angrily annoyed over her grandmother Cassandre's demanding attitude and she was frequently given some chores at their villa and the main reason why she did not come over to Sebastian's house where the player lives. At the climax of Chapter 4, Sarah finally demonstrates her telekinetic powers as a witch when she rescues Isabella from getting hit by a car and getting electrocuted from a falling electrical posts. Despite this, she was completely embarrassed as she exposes her magical powers in front of Sebastian, Esteban and the player. Throughout the chapters shows Sarah as a reliable ally to Sebastian and his group and she is able to casts protective spells towards the possessed Isabella and always kept in touch with Cassandre and the Coven regarding the ritual to remove Ka-Ata-Killa from Isabella's body. Unlike in the first season where she wasn't chosen in Sebastian's trip, Sarah now joins them on their trip to Cairo.

In Viktor's story, Sarah works as the co-owner of the Mystery Books Bookstore owned by Archibald Pearlman which both the player and Elena Gabe thought this place she currently worked for is an occult shop. She gave Samantha some magical artifacts just to find Loan who is unaware that he and the Descendant of the Templars were killed by Viktor from decapitation and the artifacts she gave to her enables her to get through the Arcane as seen in Chapter 3. It was revealed that Sarah has a best friend which happens to be Archibald's unnamed daughter who travels abroad with her husband and it was her request to manage her father's bookstore.

However in Conrad's story, Sarah had lost his trust towards Elena after mourning over her grandmother's loss due to Cassandre being murdered first by Viktor after he succeeded in killing the player and surviving the blood poisoning which was casted by Cassandre.

In her main story, similar in Peter's route and other extra events, Sarah takes on an intimate dance with the player and showing her great interest towards her. She can also be deeply emotional as seen on her bad ending where she mourns over the player's loss after Viktor had killed her during his murder spree.

## Trivia

* According to Claire Zamora within her Facebook page, Sarah was confirmed to be a lesbian in Peter's route. Sarah tried to kiss the player in season 1 of Drogo's route which raised the suspicion that she was a lesbian which is not true, since in other characters' story routes due she's not a lesbian. but is bisexual, since she has an interest in Sebastian Jones and later Esteban Dias within Sebastian's main story route, and has a boyfriend in Nicolae's route, and shows an interest in Nicolae in season 2 of Drogo's route. The only story route where she could possibly be a lesbian since she shows no interest in men at all and only in women is indeed Peter's route.
* She was mostly criticized by many players due to her extreme cautiousness towards the Bartholy family or ruining the player's relationship with Peter as seen on his main story route. She is also heavily disliked due to her stealing the player's place in the expedition in Sebastian's route.
	+ As of Drogo's route in its second season, she and her grandmother Cassandre Osborne were widely criticized by many players due to their actions of forbidding the player to avoid the Bartholys and does not heed the player's words about becoming a vampire as a higher price and as an outcast to fellow witches like they are especially when the player demonstrates both of her powers as a witch and a vampire by hitting Samantha with both telekinesis and mind reading.

* She's been in more secret images than any other female in the game excluding the main character, with a total of 13 secret images.
	+ She's also the only second love interest to be in 13 secret images without having her own story route. She also has the most secret images out of any other second love interest as Daryl Ortega and Jake Stewart only have 7 from their respective main love interests story routes, as Sarah's images come from both Peter's and Drogo's stories.
	+ She's also been featured in the most official game ads than any other female in the game excluding the main character.
* She was the second female to be featured on a game's cover, excluding the main character. The first being Jenny Blake who was featured on Ryan Carter's game cover.
* She's one of the 9 original Mystery Spell characters.

* Mia Cooper's character model is a rendition of Sarah's.
	+ Everything about their designs is the same except for their hair and skin color.
	+ 3 slight differences they have though is that Mia has more noticeable eyelashes than Sarah, Mia's collar is also slightly bigger on her uniform, and Mia's eyebrows are slightly longer and a little bit lighter than Sarah's.
* It is possible that Mia Cooper was Sarah's original design before it being later changed so that she wouldn't resemble Samantha Gautier, or even Lorie Bartholy.
* In Sebastian's route during the events of Chapter 5 through Chapter 10, she, Sebastian Jones, Esteban Dias, and Isabella Jones misspell Cassandre Osborne's first name as being Cassandra.

* She is the youngest love interest in the entire Is-it Love? franchise at just 22 years old by confirmation.
* She is the first female 2nd love interest to be replaced by another love interest.
