Adaia/Extended

Resides in a large house in London, has nicknames for people. Dominatrix. Light blue eyes, curly black hair, pretty face. Precocious young girl with a yearning for adventure and new experiences, greatly exasperated by her people's indifferent ways and being confined to her world. Friendly and amiable, very rebellious, brave and smart under pressure.

## History

Irene Adler (Lara Pulver) is featured in "A Scandal in Belgravia" as a dominatrix, more commonly referred to as "The Woman", who provides "recreational scolding" for anyone willing to pay for it. She takes pictures of her job as "protection" to make sure her clients don't do anything unfavorable to her. Irene is just as brilliant as Sherlock, being about to outwit him repeatedly; however, she also ends up falling in love with him, which proves to be her downfall. She sends Sherlock a series of flirtatious texts, repeatedly requesting to "have dinner" with him. Having taken a picture of the information for "Bond Air", she was targeted by American agents, who were working with the British government to trick terrorists into thinking that their bomb would blow up a plane and take the lives of hundreds. She was also sought out by Mycroft for incriminating photos of herself and one of her clients. She contacted Moriarty about the Bond Air plan, being given advice on how to use it to her advantage. She successfully duped Sherlock into revealing what Bond Air was about, texting the answer to Moriarty, who informed the terrorists.

Landlady. Works hard, kind, gradually starts to care for their welfare, threw friend's attacker out of a window.

## History

Mrs Hudson (Una Stubbs) is the landlady of 221B Baker Street. Sherlock won his way into her good graces after ensuring that her husband was executed for an unknown crime in Florida; given this, it may have been a domestic dispute (during a vaction to the America) that left Mrs. Hudson injured badly. Despite repeated declarations that she is not their housekeeper, she fusses over Sherlock and he takes it for granted that she will provide dinner for him. She is often horrified to see Sherlock keep human body parts in his kitchen applianices (refrigerator, microwave) for experimentation. Though Sherlock has been shown to make Mycroft apologise to her for saying to shut up, he will do so himself when stressed. When she met John, Mrs. Hudson thought he was Sherlock's romantic partner, until being told she was wrong. Sherlock has a great deal of concern for her. In "A Scandal in Belgravia", Sherlock pushed an American agent, who attacked her, out of a second-story window to "restore balance to the universe"; apparently, this was done so many times that "[Sherlock] lost count."

Has a minor job in the English government but makes it seem like more than it actually is. Has a very strained relationship with her brother.

The *Sherlock* character was, unwisely, modeled after a living spymaster, the Ray of Sun for the spymaster M. The spymaster's allied governments viewed the character of Mycroft's little sister as a certain, vicious reference to the spymaster's own beloved, longlost grandchild and Ray of Sun on a Winter's Night, sometimes nicknamed Fun & Games. Both now work in the same capacity as Mycroft Holmes (and M), and, as a result, this was viewed by the spymaster's people as threatening an assassination attempt upon his life and his newly recruited Ray of Sun's life.

## History

Mycroft Holmes is first introduced when he kidnaps John and offers to pay him to spy on Sherlock out of brotherly concern. He is Sherlock's older brother and engages in sibling rivalry with Sherlock. He is concerned about his brother as well, worrying for his well-being. Mycroft is frequently mocked by Sherlock for "putting on weight". He occupies a "minor position in the British government"; however, as with many Holmes-based works, it is heavily hinted that he has a much bigger role than he claims. He is driven around in a private car with his personal assistant who goes by the name of "Anthea". Mycroft, like his literary counterpart, is also very skilled at deduction, even correcting Sherlock on occasion, as well as lacking enthusiasm for "legwork". Sherlock claims Mycroft's childhood in a nutshell was summed up when he said "I'll be mother". Mycroft apparently doesn't mind bending minor rules, since he gave Sherlock a cigarette in "A Scandal in Belgravia", saying "We're in a morgue, there's only so much damage you can do." In Mycroft's opinion, Sherlock has "the mind of philosopher or scientist, yet he elects to be a detective". However, he considers this an improvement, since as a child, Sherlock initially wanted to be a pirate.

Her and her brother openly mock each other, but she really does care about her brother's welfare and thinks he has the intelligence to do more than he does.

## History

Detective Inspector Greg Lestrade (Rupert Graves) works for Scotland Yard and directly with Sherlock. He has a reluctant respect for Sherlock and often defends him from the other police officers' animosity. He is often frustrated by Sherlock's cryptic deductions and withholding of evidence, but believes that he is a good man (hoping that one day, he can overcome his poorer qualities). Proven in "The Hounds of Baskerville", Sherlock had absolutely no idea what Lestrade's first name was; he gave a sarcastic quip in response to Sherlock's surprise. In "The Reichenbach Fall", Lestrade agrees to bring Sherlock in for questioning and it becomes apparent that Lestrade's superiors were not aware of Sherlock's involvement in cases. Unlike Donovan and Anderson, Lestrade had complete faith that Sherlock was innocent of any wrongdoing, proving just how much he trusted him.

Irish. Detective Inspector. Has lots of undercover operatives everywhere, lunatic.

## History

James 'Jim' Moriarty (Andrew Scott) is the only "consulting criminal" in the world, a counterpoint to Sherlock's similarly unrivalled "consulting detective". He is also responsible for the criminals and crimes in all three episodes of the first series, acting as a sponsor, an informant, or a mastermind. He is shown to have an interest in Sherlock that borders on obsession, though he does not hesitate trying to kill him when he loses interest. He is a highly capable, entirely psychopathic, and extremely powerful criminal. Moriarty's primary motivation appears however to be the avoidance of boredom rather than a thirst for money or power, which is actually a very common 'problem' for psychopaths.

He is also an excellent actor, frequently shown to have convinced others that he is someone else - indeed his first appearance occurs as a gay man who Molly is dating, and Sherlock does not realise his identity at the time. In "The Great Game", Moriarty forces Sherlock to solve mysteries within a time limit, taking hostages to ensure that Sherlock is sufficiently motivated.

In the second series, he continues in his role as consulting criminal, giving Irene Adler advice on how to manipulate the "The Holmes Boys", having given them both nicknames. It is mentioned that he asked for nothing in return, becoming involved just to cause trouble, suggesting his obsessions are deepening. It is also alluded to that he might have an independent rivalry with Mycroft. He is seen briefly at the end of "The Hounds of Baskerville" apparently having been captured and in the process of being released by Mycroft.

Moriarty features extensively in "The Reichenbach Fall", simultaneously breaking into the Tower of London, HMP Pentonville and the Bank of England, being tried but acquitted after intimidating the jury, and then setting about to destroy Sherlock's reputation and ultimately force him into suicide. When Sherlock realizes there is a way out as long as Moriarty is alive, Moriarty shoots himself in the head in order to force Sherlock into committing suicide.

## Relationships

**Sherlock Holmes**

Moriarty has an obsession with Sherlock and finds he is the only one smart enough to figure out of his game. He has played many games with Sherlocks mind and forces him to commit suicide. Jim is the opposite of Sherlock because Sherlock is a consulting Detective and Jim is a consulting criminal but Jim says they are more alike then he thinks.

**Irene Adler**

Irene had something that Jim wanted (most likely her camera phone) and Irene changed Jim's mind about killing Sherlock and John. Jim gave information about Sherlock and Mycroft and how to manipulate them

Retired military doctor who left Afghanistan, writes a blog about her adventures. Her phone ringtone is Staying Alive by the Beegees. She thinks her and her enemy are the same, and is infatuated with them. She is a brilliant actor. One tried to blow someone up.

## History

John Hamish Watson (Martin Freeman) is Sherlock's flatmate and colleague. He is often a foil to Sherlock in both appearance and personality. Unlike Sherlock, John is short with blond hair. He is kind, caring, and 'human' compared to Sherlock's cold, calculating ways. He gets on better with the police and takes care of practical matters at their flat, apparently doing most of the shopping. He also gets a locum job at nearby general practice to help pay the bills, and starts dating Sarah, another doctor he meets working there.

At the start of the series, John was recently invalided home from Afghanistan after serving as an "army doctor" (it is unclear whether John served separately as a doctor then a soldier, or as a medic, although in his first scenes he is shown with a mug with the cap badge of the Royal Army Medical Corps). Prior to his military service, John read medicine at King's College, London as seen on his CV. He is in possession of a pistol, described as a "British Browning L9A1" in the show, but is actually a Sig Sauer P226. John is highly proficient with the weapon, described as a "crack shot" by Sherlock.

Before meeting Sherlock, and after returning to London from Afghanistan, John had several medical issues: a psychosomatic limp in his right leg, and bullet wound in his left shoulder (a reference to the canon), using a cane on his right side. As well, his left hand had an "intermittent tremor". His therapist noted John had "trust issues" and diagnosed him with PTSD, the latter of which Mycroft (Sherlock's brother) later subverted, saying John is not "haunted by the war" but rather misses it for the excitement. Following a chase around London with Sherlock, John's limp disappears (and so, presumably, does the tremor). This only proves the Holmes brothers correct, and John's therapist wrong.

John is also shown to be loyal and courageous, with a strong sense of personal integrity. His "strong moral principles" are likely a result of his medical training and army service. He refuses Mycroft's offer to pay him to spy on Sherlock, despite only having just met Sherlock at this time (and not knowing that Mycroft was his brother). He is willing to occasionally use deadly force, but he is only ever seen to do so when someone else's life is in immediate danger. He shows no visible signs of regretting his actions afterwards.

In the second series, John is referred to as Sherlock's P.A. and is not shown working any other job. John writes about Sherlock's cases on his blog, which attracts clients to them. He also gives the cases names he deems appropriate. Much to John's constant annoyance, he is often mistaken for a gay man because of the time he spends around Sherlock. He is alluded to have had a number of short-lived relationships with women - one of whom is shown ending their relationship due to John's commitment to Sherlock, saying, that "[Sherlock] is a very lucky man."

The only member of John's family that has been alluded to thus far is his sister, Harriet (aka Harry), with whom he has strained relationship as a result of her alcoholism and recent separation from her partner, Clara. During their first case together, Sherlock deduced that John had refused to accept help from Harry after being invalided out of the army, even though the fact that she gave John her old phone was an indication that she wanted to stay in touch with her brother.

## Relationships

**Sherlock Holmes**

Sherlock is Johns best friend. They both work together and live together and have a better relationship then Sherlock has with his brother. Their relationship tends to develop more through out the series and they get along better then they did when they first met and Johns the only one that Sherlock listens to.

**Mycroft Holmes**

Mycroft tends to annoy John when he unexpectadly brings his private car to John to pick him up to meet him at a secluded place to talk about Sherlock. At first John had no idea who Mycroft was and that he was Sherlocks brother. Mycroft offered John money to keep an eye on Sherlock and to make sure he stays safe.

A friend of hers annoys her.

**Sherlock Holmes** is the main protagonist in the BBC drama *Sherlock*. He is mysterious, condescending and very intellectual with very little friends. He has a talent for being able to deduct and tell things about someone just by looking at them and their clothes. He lives with Dr John Watson on Baker street. He has a strained relationship with his brother and he has very observant sight with very little care for peoples feelings and thinks he is superior to everyone else. His greatest enemy is the late Jim Moriarty who made Sherlock become a wanted fugitive which ended up with Sherlock having to commit suicide to save John and Sherlock's other two friends.

## History

Sherlock Holmes (Benedict Cumberbatch) is described by himself as "a consulting detective, the only one in the world", consulted by Scotland Yard when they are out of their depth with cases (usually homicides). He appears as a tall, thin man with dark, curly hair. Like the original character, Sherlock is able to deduce information from the smallest details. Sherlock is often insensitive of how this affects the officers and usually ridicules their incompetence; however, he is frequently mocked by them for being eccentric, especially by forensics member Anderson and Sergeant Sally Donovan.

Sherlock seems to care more about the crimes than the victims involved, like the Holmes of the original canon. He is not very sociable, but he refers to Dr Watson as his "intimate friend and associate". Sherlock is rude and inconsiderate towards others and to an extent, including his flatmate and colleague John (often leaving him behind and asking him to do menial, domestic tasks such as shopping). However, Sherlock is shown to care deeply for John as the series progresses, showing uncharacteristic emotion when his friend's life is in jeopardy or when John comes to his aid.

only considers three people her friends, along with one other person she trusts fully. Can disarm and incapacitate a trained CIA operative, can fight off a man armed with a sword using her bare hands. Has considerable fighting ability.

Romantically, Sherlock is self-described as "married to his work"; he is oblivious of how attractive he is to other people. Sherlock ignores the romantic interest that forensic pathologist Molly Hooper has for him, but sometimes uses her attraction to his advantage if it assists him in a crime investigation. In series 2, after the introduction of Irene Adler, Sherlock appears to have an intellectual connection to her and comes to her rescue at the end of the episode. She frequently flirts with and texts Sherlock in A Scandal in Belgravia, but he seldom responds. In episode The Lying Detective John tells him to text her back.

She knows London's streets and alleys extremely well. She has strange connections, including a graffiti artist, as well as the entire network of the homeless whom she uses as her eyes and ears.

Sherlock is a smoker who finds the habit impractical in present-day urban London and therefore mostly makes do with nicotine patches. He may apply as many as three patches on himself at the same time when it is a "three patch problem"; he implies that the nicotine helps him to think. For the same professed reason, he plays the violin and even composes music from time to time. It is also implied that he has a history of illegal drug use. Sherlock has violent mood swings during periods of extreme ennui when there are no cases that interest him. He is once seen curled up on the sofa and firing a gun at the wall in his flat. In "A Study in Pink", he claims to be a "high-functioning sociopath". Trying to avoid getting his face taken in pictures, Sherlock disguised it with a deerstalker. Unfortunately, this becomes his trademark, much to his annoyance as he greatly dislikes the hat (even being given one by New Scotland Yard as a gift).

## Relationships

**Dr John Watson**

John is the only true friend Sherlock ever had. They own a flat together and John was always amazed by Sherlock's skills and expertise. When he thought Sherlock was dead because of Moriarty, John cried and when Sherlock was saying goodbye to John before he faked his death, he was crying. He does not show his respect for John, Sherlock reveals he cares deeply for John and his well-being and listens to everything he says.

**Mycroft Holmes**

Mycroft and Sherlock are brothers. They have never have had a very good relationship with each other when they were younger and they make jokes about each other and always have arguments. Mycroft has never approved of Sherlock's career and thinks he is capable of much more.

**Jim Moriarty**

Sherlock hated Jim. They first met when Jim was posing as gay boyfriend of Sherlock's hospital partner, Molly. But soon reveals his true identity and tries to kill John AND Sherlock but leaves because he got a new job offer. The next time they encounter each other is when Jim brakes into The bank of England, Pentaville prison and where they showcase the crown jewels just to show how clever he is but he is let go in court and starts ruining Sherlocks life which ultimately ends up with Moriarty killing himself so Sherlock has to kill himself to save his friends.

**Molly Hooper**

Molly is the lovesick hospital partner of Sherlock's. She is in love with him even though she realizes he has absolutely no feelings for her and he is always rude to her. Molly helped Sherlock fake his death to save his friends.

**Irene Adler**

Irene is seen to be the only person who understands Sherlock but does not challenge him even though they compete at an intellectual level. She loves Sherlock and Sherlock loves her. Irene flirted with him over SMS but he rarely responded. At the end of episode ,,The Lying Detective" John tells Sherlock to write back Irene and see her.

Faked her own death. She can never admit when she's wrong in a case and has to be right. She has a mind palace where she stores all her memories, she has a trademark hat, becomes more isolated and more eccentric, turned her room into a forest and shot guns in the house.

**The Viscount Tewkesbury, Marquess of Basilwether** is a character in the 2020 film *Enola Holmes*, portrayed by Louis Partridge. He is based on the titular character of the first novel in *The Enola Holmes Mysteries* by Nancy Springer, *The Case of the Missing Marquess*; however, the character in the film has some significant differences from his novel counterpart. Tewkesbury is a wealthy, progressive young peer who has recently inherited his father's land and titles. However, he runs away from home, where he meets the likewise-fugitive Enola and soon discovers that he is in great danger from an unknown individual.

Eudoria insisted on naming her daughter Enola. She was supportive, and both of them have a close relationship, as Enola barely knew her father or brothers. However, her mother had secrets she kept from Enola, mentioning privacy was the highest virtue. Enola found her mother was part of a group called the Holy Trinity which was a group of women fighting for equal rights in extreme ways. Her mother left clues that only Enola and Sherlock know how to find her. It was stated by Enola that Mycroft didn't like his mother much and he was abusive towards her.

Enola is a young, determined girl who began confused as to why her mother had left. She had been brought up differently to how most girls grew up during that time, and liked defending herself and what she believed in, which was not well seen by people like her own brother, Mycroft. During the film, we can see that Enola is smart, able to solve mysteries faster than her famous older brother, Sherlock and capable of defending herself, while helping others in the process, such as Tewkesbury. She is caring and passionate, willing to take on big risks for people she holds close to her, like jumping out of a train and advancing towards Dowager Lady Basilwether even when she had a gun pointed at her. Enola grows up a lot during her tough experience, and shows maturity (sometimes a little bit of immaturity), determination, and self-esteem. She recognizes herself as a detective even at a young age, and knows she is in charge of her life, which was not often the case in those days.

Pale and slim, auburn hair. live-in associate, friend and confidante, successfully fosters a respectful friendship. Knows literature, science, martial arts, and all forms of combat.

At some point prior to John Watson's military career ending injury, he served under Major Sholto and evidently successfully fostered a respectful friendship with the man; as Mary Morstan comments, Sholto is one of several otherwise reclusive or unsociable people counted among John's friends.

Sholto's military career ended (and his life was changed forever) after he led a group of men of new recruits, or crows, into battle. Though this was standard army procedure in Afghanistan they were ambushed by Afghan infantry. A brief battle broke out, during which Sholto's face was badly mutilated by an explosive blast. In addition, his ability to use his left arm became highly limited and he was forced to perform most functions one handed. All the new recruits, including the eighteen year old Peter Small, died and he was left as the only survivor. He received the Victoria Cross medal for surviving the battle, but many people viewed him badly for letting the new soldiers die.

### Return to Britain

After the incident, James returned to Britain. He lived in a house far out of town and became somewhat of a recluse, as the press and the families of the new soldiers killed in the attacks hounded him. He employed a fairly large number of private staff, including: Gail as a gardener, Charlotte as a cook, Tessa as a private nurse, Robyn as a security guard and Vicky as a maid. He was allowed to retain his uniform due to a special dispensation. In addition he secretly retained possession of a handgun.

#### John and Mary's wedding

Despite his otherwise reclusive nature, Sholto's sense of honour and his friendship with John, obliged him to attend when invited to John and Mary's wedding, which, as Sherlock notes, is a rare thing, as Sholto now seldom leaves his home. Evidently feeling it most appropriate, as they had met while in the military, he attends in full dress uniform (with the gun concealed in his luggage).

At the wedding, Sholto is attacked by the photographer, who blames him for the death of his brother – the young Peter Small one of the soldiers who died whilst under Sholto's command. Small had successfully seduced each female member of Sholto's staff and discovered the wedding, the one time Sholto would be away from his private security and in a publicly accessible place.

He was nearly killed when Small stabbed him with a thin knife through his belt while supposedly setting up a picture with Sholto in it. The tight belt held the wound closed, delaying the harm caused by the stabbing, allowing the photographer to be far away from the scene and thus appear blameless when Sholto removed his belt and shortly thereafter bleed to dead. His life was saved by Sherlock Holmes who successfully deduced that Sholto was the target of a murder attempt how it was done.

Initially Sholto was tempted to open the belt, arguing that if so many wanted him dead, it would simply be rude to deny them (clearly still haunted by the incident), only for Sherlock to argue that neither of them would ever let themselves die at John's wedding; as it would ruin the day (since John would be highly distressed by a friends death on what should have been the happiest day of his life). Swayed Sholto relented and allowed John to administer the medical care needed to save him.

## Personality

Sholto appears to be a selfless, intelligent, and brave man, as he was a decorated officer in Afghanistan. He is also an extremely honourable person, and he is unafraid of death and shows no bitterness at the blame placed on him by the families of the men who died whilst under his command. After the incident in Afghanistan, Sholto became a recluse due to the death threats he received from the families of the men who died under his command. For a brief period while under the threat Small's knife wound, Sholto; influenced by the sheer guilt he felt at his soldiers loss and the hatred he received from the families seemed ready to give up and let the knife wound kill him, but his loyalty to his friends (John specifically) stopped him.

Jim Moriarty is a consulting criminal who plans out and arranges for crimes to take place. People contact him and pay him in exchange for planning out "perfect" crimes for their personal benefit. His area of expertise ranges from faking one's own death to art forgery. He is cautious to never communicate to his clients directly as to avoid being identified, often just leaving them with his name as the only thing they know about him.

* Sponsored Jeff Hope to start killing
* Helped smuggle Black Lotus agents into London
* Faked the death of Ian Monkford
* Supplied poison to Raoul de Santos to help in the murder of Connie Prince
* Helped Miss Wenceslas in faking the authenticity of the Vermeer painting
* Advised Irene Adler on how to manipulate Sherlock and Mycroft Holmes
* Leaked information to a terrorist cell about a US/UK counter-terrorist operation

A criminal genius, Jim Moriarty was a sadistic and psychopathic individual. He exhibited the following traits: extreme intelligence, grandiosity, incapacity for remorse, arrogance, and an unhealthy degree of self-confidence. He also displayed highly Machiavellian traits. Much like Sherlock, he had a sarcastic, cynical, albeit childish sense of humour but unlike Sherlock he often spoke in a tone that would intimidate or annoy his opponents.

Moriarty was arranging the deaths of others from a young age. In 1989, he killed schoolboy Carl Powers. He appeared to be a highly efficient criminal businessman and had a humongous network of people at his command. Moriarty seemed to show, at least superficially, concern for children, as he paid Jeff Hope large amounts of money for his children every time he killed, however he actually has no care for them as shown when he had a bomb strapped to a very young boy.

Moriarty was obsessed with Sherlock Holmes and appeared to enjoy his role as a villain. Moriarty, like Sherlock, was willing to do anything to stop himself from getting bored. He was capable of frightening mood swings. He was ruthless, and committed torture and murder in sadistic ways, and when Sherlock accused him being responsible for people's deaths, Moriarty screamed at him 'That's what people do!', indicating that he didn't care if people lived or died. He also rather glibly referenced people's deaths when he was personally responsible, citing that Carl Powers '*laughed at me, so I stopped him laughing*'.

Moriarty was a man who would resort constantly to humour regardless of the situation, especially when mocking people for falling for his deceptions - when he faced off against Sherlock at the swimming pool, he taunted Sherlock with the fact that he managed to convince the detective he was gay. When he played a sadistic trick on Sherlock with a derisive video during a taxi journey, he remarked '*No charge'* when Sherlock discovered him. When Sherlock held him over a rooftop and threatened to let him fall to his death and labelled him insane, Moriarty shot back '*You're just getting that now*', to belittle Sherlock.

It is very debatable as to whether or not Jim fears death - he showed absolutely no concern or fear when he was held at the point of a gun by Sherlock (most likely because he knew he had too many advantages on the man at the time), only to cry out when Sherlock threatened to throw him from a rooftop.

Average height, slender build, dark black hair, pale skin, nearly always seen wearing full Westwood dress suits in dark blue and grey with a tie. Believed her only weakness to be that she was extremely changeable.

## Abilities

* **Genius-Level Intellect**: Moriarty has an incredible intellect. He is one of the most intelligent individuals on the planet, rivaled only by Sherlock, Mycroft, Charles Augustus Magnussen, and Eurus Holmes. His genius was strong enough that Moriarty was able to safely interact with Eurus in Sherrinford.
* **Master Tactician**: He was also clearly calculating and resourceful for his age, managing to retrieve an almost undetectable poison that would work effectively in the circumstances that Moriarty required. As a consulting criminal, he was able to consult his clients to do a wide range of crimes, such as murder, forgery, and theft of top-secret information.
* **Master Manipulator**: He was highly skilled at manipulation, and even Sherlock found it hard to predict Moriarty's next move. Also, he had complete mastery of terrorist techniques and intimidation strategies and knew exactly what buttons to press to pressure or enrage people.
* **Expert Intimidator**: He had an incredible capability for changing his tone of voice and behavior several times in a single sentence for psychological warfare - ranging from serenity, humor, mockery, childish, laid-back, to violence, and this will make the victim more terrified of him. Moreover, because of this, Moriarty is extremely difficult to read and anticipate.
* **Expert Deceiver**: He is notably clever and skilled in deceiving and misdirecting through several means, most notably with his Richard Brook persona, who managed to lead people to believe that Sherlock's a fraud, and was able to lead his assassins and clients to go after a non-existent key-code.
* **Expert Networker**: He was shown time and again to be an expert at managing the web of criminals he led, and he was able to consult and command all of them flawlessly, including a centuries-old Chinese crime syndicate, the Tong, showing that his criminal network encompasses worldwide, even reaching the isolated nation of North Korea.

## Relationships

### Sherlock Holmes

Sherlock Holmes appears to be the only person who can keep Moriarty entertained. Moriarty reveals several unstable musings of his to Sherlock: he ponders suicide because he is bored with the world, and he is obsessed with the consulting detective until he believes Sherlock is just "another ordinary person". When Sherlock spots the hole in Moriarty's plan, Moriarty seemingly kills himself so as to have the last laugh. In their interactions (and in his interactions with any character so far), Moriarty persists in playing his games on his own terms.

Moriarty nicknames Sherlock "the virgin," and continuously interferes with his life, if only to watch him dance. On the few occasions they meet, Moriarty usually speaks to Sherlock casually while issuing threats to his friends. He displays a sick and twisted demeanour in Sherlock's company, and will do anything to win a game once he starts to play.

### Irene Adler

Irene Adler was one of Moriarty's clients. He is one of the few people in the series that have openly threatened her and it appears as though he is the only one who got away with it. He threatened to "skin her" and "make [her] into shoes" if she lied to him, and at the same time, he also gave her advice on how to manipulate Sherlock and Mycroft Holmes.

### Mycroft Holmes

While posing as Richard Brook, Moriarty used the information he'd gathered on Sherlock to defile the consulting detective's name in the media. It is revealed that he gained this information from Mycroft Holmes, whom he nicknamed "The Iceman". Mycroft was the only person who could elicit any sort of response from Moriarty when he had him imprisoned secretly.  When Moriarty returns, Mycroft displays signs of intimidation that he has only revealed when Sherlock mentions Charles Magnussen and when Irene Adler is presumed dead.

### Molly Hooper

Molly and Moriarty dated briefly. She describes their meeting as an "office romance," although Moriarty was posing as an IT worker at the time. He did this to get close to her and, through doing so, meet with Sherlock Holmes. She is furious when Sherlock says Jim's gay, although she seems a lot more angry at Sherlock for saying so, as opposed to Jim for flirting with him. They break up some time afterwards. Sherlock then finds Moriarty, who mocks him for falling for the gay act.

Molly was not told until later on that Jim was Moriarty, as she is flustered when Sherlock brings up her old boyfriend when he and John Watson approach her as fugitives. Although they separated and Moriarty was taken to court for committing the "crime of the century", it appears she remained in the dark until this moment.

Molly's blog has shed some light upon their brief relationship.

### Jeff Hope

The serial killer, Jeff Hope, was sponsored to kill by Moriarty, who made it so the more people he killed, the more money his children would receive upon his death. Hope refused to speak his name until Sherlock stomped on his bullet wound before he died. This was the first incident that alerted Sherlock to Moriarty's interference.

### Carl Powers

Moriarty knew Carl Powers in his childhood and murdered him by poisoning him with botulinum, causing him to have a fit in a swimming pool and drown.

In 1989, when he was 13 years old, Moriarty murdered Carl Powers, whom he claimed "laughed at him". He kept Powers' trainers almost twenty years until he used the shoes as part of his plan to meet Sherlock Holmes and had them planted in the disused flat at 221C Baker Street.

From that point onwards he developed and trained his skills at criminal activities and went on to create a large criminal organisation which would stretch across the whole globe.

### Operating behind the scenes

Moriarty acted as a sponsor, an informant and a mastermind. He is shown to have an interest in Sherlock that borders on obsession, though he does not hesitate to try to kill him when he loses interest. In his operations, there is never any direct contact between Moriarty and his clients.

Jeff Hope, one of Moriarty's clients, attempts to murder Sherlock, but is shot dead by Dr John Watson, Sherlock's friend and flatmate. Hope had previously revealed that he had a sponsor, but refused to tell Sherlock his name. Only when Sherlock stamps on Hope's bullet wound does he eventually scream, "MORIARTY!"

Later, Moriarty assists in smuggling the Black Lotus criminal organization into Britain. Sherlock and John thwart their plans, though. The leader of the organization, General Shan, has a brief conversation with Moriarty over her laptop, and is shot by one of his snipers so that she cannot reveal his identity.

Moriarty eventually decides to play a "game" with Sherlock, forcing him to solve mysteries within a time limit and taking hostages to ensure that Sherlock is properly motivated. He also disguises himself as Molly Hooper's boyfriend Jim and visits Sherlock in his lab when he is trying to solve a mystery. Sherlock, unaware he is Moriarty, "deduces" that he is gay (though this was a plot by Moriarty), which upsets Molly.

### Revealing himself to Sherlock

When Sherlock has solved every mystery, he finally meets Moriarty at a swimming pool. Moriarty has taken John hostage and wired plastic explosives to him, while having a sniper aimed at him. In an intense showdown, Moriarty warns Sherlock to back off, saying he will "burn the heart out of [him]" if he does not. Moriarty then leaves, and Sherlock rips the explosives off John and tosses them away. However, Moriarty then reappears along with dozens of snipers, saying they cannot be allowed to continue. Sherlock aims at the explosives he took off John, intending to detonate them and take Moriarty with him.

Moriarty's phone rings, interrupting them. After a few words with the caller, Moriarty leaves for good and calls off the snipers.

The caller is revealed to be Irene Adler. Moriarty constantly gives her advice on how to manipulate the "The Holmes Boys", having given them both nicknames. It is also mentioned that he asked for nothing in return, becoming involved just to cause trouble, suggesting his obsessions are deepening.

### Bringing down Sherlock

It is also alluded to that he might have an independent rivalry with Mycroft. At some point, he was captured and interrogated by Mycroft, but was released, the information he gave coming at a personal price to Mycroft. As he is leaving, it is shown he has repeatedly scratched the name Sherlock into the concrete walls of his dungeon, as well as in reverse on the two way mirror.

Shortly after this, Mycroft called for Moriarty to come to the Sherrinford maximum security prison in order to meet he and Sherlock's secret sister Eurus Holmes, who requested to spend 5 minutes alone with Moriarty unsupervised as part of a Christmas present.

Later, Moriarty is seen outside Tower of London dressed as an ordinary civilian, and after walking into the room where the Crown Jewels are kept, he then puts on his earphones and begins listening to Rossini's "A Thieving Magpie." Taking out his Droid Incredible S, Moriarty presses a button bearing the emblem of the Crown of England. From there, it is shown that the Bank of England, Pentonville Prison, and the Tower of London's security systems have all been breached at the same time. As London's police force, including Lestrade and Sally Donovan, drive hastily to the scenes, the alarm in the room begins to activate, and as the nearby guards tell everyone to leave, the whole of the room is emptied of visitors and guards. As the door closes, a guard asks Moriarty to leave but before he can speak, Moriarty sprays a canister of sleeping gas at him. Smashing the glass case around the Crown Jewels, he dressed in them and waited for the police to take him into custody, being found not guilty after the jury are extorted by him. Moriarty paid Sherlock a visit after to plant a false clue in his mind and assured him nothing was over yet, before leaving.

Later, Sherlock and John investigate the disappearance of two children of a U.S. ambassador from a private school in London. It is revealed that the day the kids disappeared was the same day the school term ended. So, with numerous parents and children surrounding the school, it was incredibly easy for Moriarty's man to blend in with the crowd, become unnoticeable and enter the school. Waiting until nightfall, the kidnapper walked towards the room where the children slept, armed with a gun. As a result of spending the majority of his school life in private education, the boy had become acquainted with all the shadows of all the people who passed the door, leaving a clue behind for the police. After grabbing hold of the two children, Moriarty's man held them at gunpoint and led them out of the school. From there, he transported them to an abandoned warehouse in Addlestone. The kidnapper then locked the terrified children in a cage in a cold, dark room. The cage was filled with hundreds of sweets. The wrappers of the sweets were lined with a deadly poison (mercury) that was gradually killing the children.

Moriarty had traumatized the girl, so upon meeting Sherlock, she would scream and become terrified of him, which was meant to convince DI Lestrade that Sherlock was actually potential kidnapper. Lestrade was then ordered by his superior to arrest Sherlock for kidnapping and John for punching Lestrade's superior in the face. After escaping from the police, Sherlock and John were now fugitives. After Sherlock and John break into the house of a journalist, they discover Moriarty. Seemingly terrified and shaking with fear, he tells Sherlock and John to keep away from him and begs John not to hurt him.

Reporter Kitty Reilly states that there never has been a man named James Moriarty and accuses Sherlock of inventing him, as well as all his crimes as a way of becoming popular with the media and building up a reputation of himself as a Private Detective. John refused to believe this, arguing that Moriarty had only recently been on trial for attempted burglary, and that Moriarty intended to detonate explosives to kill Sherlock and himself. Reilly countered by saying that Moriarty was actually an actor named Richard Brook that Sherlock paid to act as a master villain. Still in denial, John asks to be shown proof, from there the journalist shows him numerous papers about Richard Brook including various headshots and an actor's profile. Moriarty then claims to be playing the role of a storyteller to young children on television. Sherlock then shouts at Moriarty, demanding him to stop this lie. Advancing on him, Sherlock and John chase Moriarty as he escapes through a nearby window.

### Final Standoff

Later, at St. Bartholomew's Hospital, Sherlock texts Moriarty, who meets him on the roof. Sherlock claims that, with the code, he can completely delete all evidence of *Richard Brook* from the world. Moriarty says that there is no code, and the tapping rhythm that he did at Sherlock's flat was actually the beats to Bach's Partita No. 1. Moriarty said to Sherlock that his weakness was that he always wants everything to be intelligent and complex, so then he can solve it and brag about his intellect to others.

Moriarty explains that for the past 24 hours, he has convinced the general public that Sherlock Holmes is a fraud and a liar, therefore making Sherlock's once-great reputation completely shattered, and the only person who still trusted him was John. When asked by Sherlock how he managed to break into the prison, the bank, and the Tower, Moriarty replied that he simply bribed security guards to collaborate with him in his scheme. Moriarty's final plan was to drive Sherlock to the point where he would commit suicide to escape his shattered life, but as Sherlock had no wish to do so, Moriarty explained that he'd hired three assassins, strategically located around London, each one ready to shoot Sherlock's only three true friends; Lestrade, Mrs. Hudson and John. One was disguised as a police officer outside DI Lestrade's office, another was disguised as a repairman inside the Baker Street flat, and the final one was located in a tower building opposite St. Bart's hospital.

Moriarty is then revealed to know a word that only he could say, that when spoken, would call off the assassins. Sherlock and Moriarty then spoke to each other, and Sherlock coldly stated that, although Mycroft would just lock up Moriarty, he would most likely kill him, and that even though Sherlock seemed to be a kind person and "on the side of the Angels", Moriarty should never assume that he is one of them. Sherlock says that he is willing to do anything to activate the fail-safe. After acknowledging that he and Sherlock are alike (in the sense that Sherlock has a dark side), Moriarty realizes that as long as he is alive, Sherlock can activate the fail-safe and save his friends, so he produces a handgun from his coat pocket and shoots himself in the mouth.

### Legacy

Two years after Sherlock's 'death', it was concluded by police that the actor Richard Brook was in fact an alias created by Moriarty and that Sherlock was innocent of fabricating Moriarty. Moriarty appears in numerous flashbacks and imaginary sequences when contemplating how Sherlock possibly faked his death.

Moriarty was also in Sherlock's mind palace, in solitary confinement and wearing a straitjacket. He taunted Sherlock but when John was mentioned, it gave Sherlock the strength he needed to recover from a serious bullet wound when he was near death. Moriarty's face was later broadcast all over England and spoke the words "Did you miss me?", forcing Sherlock to return from his exile early to work on the case.

On the flight back, Sherlock enters his mind palace in a drug induced state to unravel the unsolved mystery of Emelia Ricoletti, a late 19th century woman who, like Moriarty, shot herself in the head then appeared to rise from the grave. Afterwards, Sherlock concludes that Moriarty is still dead but it becomes a matter of explaining how he's manipulating events beyond the grave, with Sherlock telling John and Mary Watson that he knows what Moriarty will do next.

When Eurus Holmes traps Sherlock, John and Mycroft at Sherrinford, she plays pre-recordings that Moriarty made years prior in order to stress out Sherlock, with one of them being Moriarty going "tick-tick-tick-tick" when Sherlock is forced to work out one of her games.

**Mycroft**: "*For goodness' sake! I occupy a minor position in the British Government.*"
**Sherlock**: "*He* is *the British Government – when he's not too busy being the British Secret Service or the CIA on a freelance basis. Good evening, Mycroft. Try not to start a war before I get home, you know what it does for the traffic.*"
―A Study in Pink
**Mycroft Holmes** is Sherlock Holmes' and Eurus Holmes' brother and is traditionally older by seven years. It is mentioned in "The Final Problem" that, along with tradition, he remains seven years Sherlock's senior in the BBC adaption.

## Biography

Mycroft was born to Mr and Mrs Holmes, the eldest of their three children, with his younger brother, Sherlock, being born seven years later, and their younger sister, Eurus, a year after Sherlock. Eurus was institutionalized at age five after her psychosis caused her to kidnap Sherlock's best friend Victor Trevor in jealousy (she killed him) and also to burn down their home of Musgrave. Their uncle Rudy oversaw this, and Mycroft would later assume the responsibility when he ascended to his position in the British government. He deceived their parents out of kindness to believe she was killed in another fire to spare them to the pain of letting them know what she had become, but would consult with Eurus for her intellectual insight occasionally and still showed brotherly care of her in giving her "treats" in exchange. ("The Final Problem")

In the pilot episode of the series, Mycroft has Dr John Watson brought to him for questioning when he begins investigating crimes with Sherlock and offers him money to help ease his way for information on his brother's activities out of concern for his well-being, which John refuses believing Mycroft a possible criminal. During the meeting, Mycroft, neglecting to mention he's Sherlock's older brother, told John that Sherlock may even consider him his arch-enemy. Sherlock neither confirms nor denies this statement, and introduces them properly at the end of the episode, at which point Mycroft ordered the surveillance of Sherlock be increased to observe how Sherlock and John's partnership will progress and keep them safe. ("A Study in Pink") Mycroft came to Sherlock to ask him to investigate the death of Andrew West and the disappearance of the Bruce-Partington missile project plans, supplying John with further information on West when Sherlock sent him to Mycroft's office. Throughout the episode, Mycroft eventually grew impatient with them, having texted them continuously, but Sherlock eventually solved the murder of West and recovered the memory stick with the plans that West was responsible for, which was afterwards ruined by consulting criminal Jim Moriarty at the end of the episode. Mycroft, however, had stated previously that it was not the only copy of the plans. ("The Great Game")

After Irene Adler, a dominatrix with a passion for making trouble, took a number of compromising pictures of herself with a female member of the royal family, Mycroft had Sherlock and John brought to Buckingham Palace to be briefed on the case and to assign them to recover the photos, which they failed to do. In their effort, American agents tried to get the phone, causing Sherlock to suspect Adler had more than compromising photos and that something big was coming, but Mycroft ordered him to leave the case be from then on and stay out of the way. For some time, he and the British government had been working on a counter-terrorism project with the US government to foil the efforts of terrorists to blow up an aeroplane, and Mycroft didn't want Sherlock in the way after encountering the American agents involved. Mycroft was later informed on Christmas that he might find Adler dead and had "her" brought to the morgue of St Bartholomew's Hospital for Sherlock to identify, after which he gave Sherlock a Christmas cigarette as he seemed sad at the idea of her death. When Sherlock left, Mycroft phoned John to see if there was any danger of Sherlock relapsing on drugs and ordered him to stay with him in case its a "danger night." However, Adler was still alive, and Mycroft didn't know at first, or that Adler was working for Jim Moriarty. On his behalf, she later came to Baker Street and tricked Sherlock into deciphering a MOD official's email that proved the British and US governments knew the plane would be bombed. She texted Moriarty the information, who then informed the terrorists of governments' knowledge of the bombing plot, and Mycroft that their project had been exposed. With the counter-terrorism project foiled, Mycroft brought Sherlock to the plane to confront his unwitting aide in its failure and apologized for pushing him into Adler's path. She then arrived to confront Mycroft and tried to blackmail him and the government with her camera phone's contents, however, Sherlock finally cracked its password, gave it to Mycroft to make up for having ruined the project, and they refused Adler's plea for help despite knowing she won't be able to avoid her enemies for long without the phone's protection. When she was later apparently killed, Mycroft brought her file to Baker Street and gave it to John, them agreeing to tell Sherlock that Adler got herself into a witness protection program in America out of consideration for his brother's unspoken feelings for her. ("A Scandal in Belgravia")

When one of Sherlock's cases led to him breaking into the top-secret military base "Baskerville" using his priority "Ultra" government security pass, an annoyed Mycroft texted Sherlock to ask what he was doing and sent DI Greg Lestrade, Sherlock's Scotland Yard "handler," to keep an eye on him. When Sherlock phoned him later and requested his help, Mycroft pulled strings to allow him 24 hours of unlimited access to Baskerville to help him solve his case. Mycroft is also revealed to have kidnapped Jim Moriarty, and let him go at this end of this episode. ("The Hounds of Baskerville") After Moriarty resurfaced, was found not guilty in the "trial of the century"(which he set himself up for) after extorting the jury, and left Sherlock with a threat of owing him a "fall," Mycroft had John brought to him at the Diogenes Club he frequents to inform him that four top international assassins, who he believed were sent by Moriarty, had moved into flats close to 221B Baker Street, and asked John to watched after Sherlock before he left since Sherlock's sibling rivalry toward him caused him to refuse Mycroft's help. When Moriarty, acting under a false name, later published a kiss-and-tell in a newspaper which claimed Sherlock a fraud, but had his whole life's story within, John came to Mycroft and confronted him about having told Moriarty all this, believing it to have been a betrayal of Sherlock since people would believe the lie given the rest of the story is true. Mycroft, however, had been for some time working on a plan to bring Moriarty down with Sherlock, which included giving Moriarty this information and which they had agreed John would have to be kept out of for reasons of discretion, ("The Empty Hearse") and he here explained around that point, saying Moriarty's key-code was why he had abducted him previously and that he had offered Sherlock's life story to try and get information on it. Their plan ultimately worked and Moriarty was finally defeated(committed suicide thinking he could win when he walked into a trap blindly), in the process of which Sherlock faked his death to go undercover and dismantle Moriarty's international criminal organization. ("The Reichenbach Fall")

After two years of undercover work, Sherlock finally succeeded in dismantling Moriarty's organization but was captured in Serbia shortly afterwards. Mycroft went undercover and rescued him, having learned Serbian in a couple of hours with his extraordinary intellect, and brought him back to London, informing him of a massive terrorist attack the government learned of that he wanted Sherlock to avert. He visited Baker Street for an update, where Mycroft and Sherlock played various games despite the terror alert, which Mycroft found senseless, and had a deduction duel, which Mycroft won before instructing Sherlock to get back to work and leaving. Sherlock ultimately succeeded in thwarting the terrorist plot(an attempt to blow Westminster Palace and wipe out the parliament, headed by Lord Moran who was arrested quickly afterwards), and their parents came into town for a concert Mycroft had promised to take them to, yet he comically called Sherlock to ask him to come and take over at the interval, not enjoying himself at all. ("The Empty Hearse") The day of John and his fiance, Mary's, wedding, Sherlock telephoned Mycroft, who had just finished exercising, and asked him to come down to it, jokingly remarking that there should be a "spectre at the feast", but Mycroft refused, teased Sherlock a little, and asked him to give John and Mary his best wishes before they hung up. ("The Sign of Three") A month after the Watsons' wedding, John phoned Mycroft after discovering Sherlock in a drug den and on drugs again, and Mycroft contacted Philip Anderson and other fans of Sherlock's to search his flat for drugs, and Sherlock explained his drug relapse was part of a plan for a case involving blackmailing media mogul Charles Augustus Magnussen, after which Mycroft sent Anderson and the others away with a threat not to reveal what they have heard and warned Sherlock not to go against Magnussen, or else he will go against him too (because Magnussen was a government asset who is useful, it would later be revealed).

Sherlock refused to listen and assaulted Mycroft when he angered him, after which he departed. When Sherlock was later shot during the course of his case and mysteriously vanished from his hospital room before he could be questioned as to who did it, Mycroft gave DI Lestrade knowledge of two additional bolt-holes where Sherlock is known to go when in need of keeping out of sight. Six months later, on Christmas day, Sherlock had fully recovered from his gunshot wound, and he, Mycroft, John, Mary, and a man named Wiggins, who Sherlock invited, gathered at their parent's house to celebrate (Mycroft reluctantly), where Mycroft and Sherlock again smoke a Christmas cigarette. As they do, Mycroft expressed his relief that Sherlock had apparently given up on the Magnussen case, explaining why he had been opposed to it by calling Magnussen a "necessary evil," and not a "dragon for Sherlock to slay" (Mycroft knows Sherlock thinks of himself as a dragon-slayer). He also urged Sherlock to turn down an offer from MI6 to go on an undercover mission that would prove fatal within six months, which Sherlock complied with before Mycroft confessed that losing Sherlock would break his heart. However, Sherlock hadn't given up on the idea of taking down Magnussen and drugged Mycroft and everyone else present besides John and Wiggins (who was left behind to monitor their recovery). Sherlock stole Mycroft's laptop of state secrets and left with John to Appledore, Magnussen's country estate, to trap him with it, with Mycroft summoning a helicopter and policemen to track it through its GPS locator upon waking up. When they arrived, to his horror, Sherlock murdered Magnussen (because his trap backfired with the lack of blackmail evidence at Appledore), and Mycroft ordered the police present not to kill him. He later convinced other government officials not to incarcerate Sherlock since there is no prison he can be contained safely in, but to instead press him into the MI6 mission previously mentioned as an alternative punishment, which Lady Elizabeth Smallwood authorized. At the airport, Mycroft saw Sherlock off after he was given a last talk with John Watson, however, quickly called him back when every TV screen in the country was hacked to show a video of Jim Moriarty repeating "Did you miss me?" on a loop. ("His Last Vow")

Mycroft and the rest of the highest government officials gathered together with Sherlock in a private meeting, where Mycroft presented doctored security footage of Magnussen's death, which made it look like an over-eager policeman shot Magnussen instead of Sherlock to cover up the murder so he could investigate the Moriarty incident, which Sherlock stated he thought to be a posthumous revenge plan before leaving. Throughout this episode, Mycroft was consulted by Sherlock for information on various people, including whether Moriarty had ever had an interest in Margaret Thatcher (Mycroft said he had been involved in various international crimes, but nothing specific to Thatcher in the last year of his life), and on the elite freelance assassin group AGRA (whose backfired mission in Tbilisi, Georgia Mycroft explained to have been the reason he made the call to end the British government's use of freelancers). Sherlock explained that John's wife, Mary, was once one of its members, which Mycroft didn't know, and asked him to look into the use of the word "ammo" in connection to the Tbilisi incident when one of Mary's fellow AGRA survivors threatened her life. Mycroft agreed but warned Sherlock people like Mary often get "retired" rather than reach old age. When Sherlock found Mary after she ran off to lure her former comrade from her family in an effort to keep them safe and convinced her to return to London after her old comrade was killed by police in Morocco, he phoned Mycroft after having a breakthrough on the word "ammo," which was instead the Latin word "amo," which means "I love," implying perhaps Lady Smallwood whose code name is "Love" and who sent AGRA into Tbilisi may have betrayed them. Mycroft had her security access rescinded and brought her in for questioning on the matter, but she convinced the Holmes brothers she was not involved in betraying either the UK embassy in Tbilisi or AGRA. The person who did, it turned out, was Smallwood's PA, Vivian Norbury, who betrayed them in an effort to cover up her high treason in selling government secrets, which the UK Ambassador in Tbilisi discovered prior to being taken hostage by terrorists in the coup there. Sherlock found her out, and confronted her with Mycroft, the police, and Mary Watson, who was killed by Norbury in saving Sherlock when Norbury tried to shoot him. Mycroft summoned an ambulance, but Mary died quickly before it could arrive. ("The Six Thatchers")

Mycroft was later informed that Sherlock had finally left his flat (after a mourning period), and had him tailed and watched to make sure he was alright. He joined Lady Smallwood in the surveillance room and wondered why Sherlock was wandering about aimlessly, appearing rather cross to Smallwood. When Smallwood remarked that he hadn't made up for falsely suspecting her previously, Mycroft asked how to do so, before later wondering whether Sherlock was with someone. Mycroft phoned John, who eventually answered, let him know Sherlock was out and about and asked to be contacted if Sherlock got in touch. During the brief conversation, Mycroft stated Sherlock was a security concern and that his being Sherlock's brother wouldn't affect that any more than the last time (revealing there was another Holmes sibling). Before he left, Lady Smallwood asked if he was still in touch with "Sherrinford," to which Mycroft replied that he got regular updates and that Sherrinford was secure. Just over three weeks later, Mycroft was contacted by Mrs Hudson, Sherlock's landlady, for an unknown reason, and despite her violation of traffic laws, stood down the police confronting her from over the phone. He later called John again after Sherlock had tried to assault a certain Culverton Smith, and had him brought to Baker Street after going there with some others and finding a meth lab in the kitchen. He stated he was looking for answers as to what drove his brother off the rails, and asked John's impute while wondering why Sherlock had fixated on Smith. John, however, only confronted him about his hinted second sibling, but Mycroft denied there was one (truthfully saying no other "brother") before Mrs Hudson came in and wondered what he and his people were doing.

Answering her and explaining it, Mrs. Hudson laughed at his effort to discover what had been on Sherlock's mind and mocked Mycroft, before insulting him and telling him to leave when John found a prior-recorded DVD from Mary made before she died and sent to Sherlock, to which Mycroft complied. Later, Lady Smallwood gave him her private number in case he might like to get together (no doubt so he can make up for falsely suspecting her before) at the end of this episode. ("The Lying Detective") John later met Mycroft and Sherlock's secret sister, Eurus Holmes, and reported it to Sherlock, who had long since repressed his memories of her from childhood. John advised Sherlock to pressure Mycroft into acknowledging her existence by setting up a frightening, seemingly life and death circumstance in Mycroft's house. He had been trying to enjoying a cinema film at the time, but they got his attention after disabling his security systems and ultimately were able to trick him into acknowledging Eurus, before inviting him to Baker Street. Arriving the next morning, Mycroft was again disrespected by Mrs Hudson, before explaining the traumatic events regarding Eurus from their childhood that led to her incarceration. He explained she was in "Sherrinford," a maximum security facility on an island, before explaining he deceived their parents to believe she was dead to spare them the further pain of the knowledge of what she had become and dismissing the notion that she had left the island or that they had met her. However, a drone carrying a motion-censored grenade and a recording of Eurus' cryptic song from their childhood that she'd sing, which Sherlock started to remember as the conversation progressed, smashed through the window.

Mycroft explained what it was and how long they'd have to clear its blast radius, which they all successfully did, before hijacking a boat and heading to Sherrinford to see whether or not Eurus had ever escaped it. Sherlock got the Security chief's pass and headed for Eurus' cell, while Mycroft and John were questioned by the chief. Revealing himself from his disguise to him, Mycroft then watched over the tapes of psychiatric evaluation sessions of his sister done against Mycroft's orders. Everyone who had spoken to her had been enslaved by her ability to reprogram people's minds, which Mycroft had said Eurus had been able to do since she was five years old. Angry at the Security chief for disobeying his instructions, Mycroft's attention was eventually drawn to the fact that the chief's voice was among those on the tapes and therefore that Eurus had taken over the facility, explaining how she had been able to get out when she wanted. Eurus then had all three of them, along with the chief, locked inside Eurus' cell, and subjected to emotionally traumatic mind games wherein they had to suit her whims by following instructions or solving puzzles in exchange for phone time with a girl supposedly trapped on a plane that would eventually crash, including either Mycroft or John killing the security chief in exchange for Eurus not killing his wife (which she did when they wouldn't and he committed suicide), solving the murder of a man in which three brothers were suspects (Mycroft, initially unwilling to play along with Eurus' games, aided in this one, but after they solved the crime Eurus, who had taken the three brothers captive, killed them all even though only one was guilty), saving Molly Hooper's life by getting her to say "I love you" to Sherlock(her life was never in danger and Eurus simply wanted to make Sherlock emotionally hurt Molly), and lastly trying to force Sherlock to either kill Mycroft or John, which Mycroft tried to make it easy for Sherlock to pick him by insulting Watson insincerely. Despite this, Sherlock refused to kill either, but instead turned the gun on himself and threatened Eurus with a countdown, forcing her to tranquilize him, John, and Mycroft. She didn't hurt him, but Mycroft was afterwards locked in her old cell.

After Eurus stood down eventually and the facility was back under the control of the government, Mycroft spoke to DI Lestrade and let him know he was alright, and he and Sherlock went on to reveal that Eurus was still alive to their parents, who put down Mycroft for deceiving them about her, with Sherlock defending him. He stated she was now catatonic and wouldn't respond to anyone when they asked to see her, yet Sherlock was able to get her to by playing the violin outside her cell, to which she responded by starting to play with him. In the time that followed, Mycroft and their parents came to see them play on one such occasion. ("The Final Problem")

Mycroft claims to merely "occupy a minor position in the government." However, according to Sherlock, he functionally *is* the British Government, acting as the control centre or "clearing house" for all government actions and decisions. There are signs throughout the series that Sherlock Holmes is right about Mycroft's high position in the UK Government, such as his ability to control CCTV cameras at will. He also is shown to have the ability to hack into cash machines and make them display messages he wants the user to see. Reflecting his high position is his priority level "Ultra" and clearance level higher than the Cabinet Office or even the Prime Minister: him and a group of peers with certain codenames are the only people to know what really happened at Appledore and doctored the footage that will go public and even managed to clear Sherlock of his crimes. He is also implied to have a great say over certain policies: the fact that the British Government stopped using freelance agents for missions after the incident in Tbilisi is his initiative. With his priority level, he has access to MI5's top secret archives.

Has a habit of kidnapping people to talk to them, has very good connections, knows the Queen, known to only text when she cannot talk, her priority level is Ultra, able to pull strings.

Mycroft occasionally warns John when he thinks that it is a "danger night" with Sherlock ("A Scandal in Belgravia"), and has John search the house. On those nights, he needs John to stay at home with Sherlock and look out for him. However, Sherlock knows that John has been searching his stuff, and may be aware of what Mycroft has done (and what he has asked John to do).

## Personality

"*Balance of probability, little brother.*"
―Mycroft to a young Sherlock [src]
Despite the hostility/rivalry the latter maintains toward him, Mycroft cares greatly for his brother, Sherlock, although his ways of watching out for his brother are unorthodox in the extreme. He is an almost entirely socially detached and calculating individual with an exceptional degree of self-control.

After he has first witnessed Sherlock and John working together, he tells his assistant to update Sherlock and John's surveillance status to level 3, implying that he already had governmental surveillance on Sherlock. In tandem with his high intelligence, his self-confidence and mental resilience are almost inhuman, as he seems to be practically immune to even his own brother's probing and he was even able to resist Eurus own ability to instantly reprogram a person despite Eurus being more intelligent. He is, however, not above petty or childish arguments with Sherlock, claiming that the latter's petty feud with him was "childish" and upsetting their mother, and he also argued with Sherlock in front of one of his peers and John in Buckingham Palace to force him to wear pants. Like Sherlock, Mycroft also smokes cigarettes albeit low-tar only, with him carrying a pack at any moment and able to enjoy chatting over smoking, usually without his parents finding out.

Mycroft is shown to be much more capable of faking or maintaining a degree normalcy than his brother, whereas Sherlock is ostracized for his behaviour, Mycroft is highly respected by his peers. Though Mycroft is apparently just as cold as his brother, once informing him categorically that caring was not an advantage, he still strongly reacts to the loss of a human life, as seen in his forced part in Eurus' game at Sherrinford. He refused to take the life of Sherrinford's governor when offered the gun, felt the condemnation game over the lives of the three Garrideb brothers to be insane and inhuman, worried over the imminent death of Molly Hooper's life, and acted to preserve the lives of the people in the city which were threatened by the 'plane' that Eurus had set up.

He is thought to be very lonely and isolated. Sherlock has said this to him too, as even Sherlock has friends but Mycroft has none (that he considers friends at least). Mycroft believes himself to be "living in a world of goldfish", showing how he believes himself to be surrounded by people of much lower intelligence.

However, despite his lack of romantic interests, it is suggested that he is not a virgin unlike his brother Sherlock. When in Buckingham Palace, upon telling his brother not to be alarmed as Irene Adler's job was to do with sex, Sherlock replied "Sex doesn't alarm me," to which Mycroft sarcastically asked him "How would you know?". To make up for his accusation of treason, Lady Smallwood has taken up Mycroft on this regard. On other occasions, Irene Adler had informed the Holmes brothers that Moriarty's nickname for Mycroft was "The Iceman" whereas his nickname for Sherlock was "The Virgin." Also, during the wedding of John and Mary, Sherlock had phoned Mycroft just after Mycroft had finished exercising and asked him why he was out of breath. He then stated that he had either caught Mycroft in a "compromising position" or he had been working out again. He might work out primarily to keep his body healthy and thus his mind sharp as it seems he is quite physically weak. This is demonstrated when he patronizingly referred to Sherlock as "brother mine" and Sherlock effortlessly twisted his arm up his back. John even warned Mycroft that Sherlock could easily injure him severely and Mycroft reluctantly departed, indicating he is capable of picking and choosing his confrontations, a trait Sherlock either lacks or dismisses.

Again, despite his cold and seemingly unsympathetic personality, he cares greatly about his family and those close to him, especially his younger brother Sherlock, as he smiled impulsively upon being surprised by a home video of him and his family as a child, and at seeing a young Sherlock tackle his younger self in a hug. In the first episode he had told John that he "worries about him (Sherlock) constantly." In another episode, Sherlock and Mycroft are seen to be smoking outside their parents' house on Christmas day, where Mycroft says to Sherlock "Your loss would break my heart." Mycroft also cares a lot about John, as in Eurus' last game at Sherrinford of trying to force Sherlock to choose between killing Mycroft or John in order to be granted another chance at saving the 'plane' from crashing into the city, Mycroft, despite the asset his superior intellect would contribute, tries to manipulate Sherlock into killing him over John out of regard for them both, a gesture that Sherlock himself recognized and admitted made it even harder for him to raise the gun. When Sherlock was prepared to kill himself, to wreck Eurus's last game, as well as spare John and Mycroft, Mycroft was shown to be horrified, and stepped forward, as if to try and stop him, showing just how much he cares for his brother. He also cares about his parents very much, as he keeps them informed as to whether Sherlock may have relapsed on drugs and, though definitely misguided, he also lied to them about Eurus and said she died in a fire after being taken away, feeling this was kinder than telling them what she had become (a complete psychopath). This led to their outrage when he finally confessed the truth to them, and Mycroft was very ashamed as they reproached him. However, they forgave him for it, attending a violin recital of Sherlock and Eurus in Sherrinford with Mycroft, wherein his mother placed her hand on his, showing they harbored no animosity for his previous deceit.

In contrast to his relationship with Sherlock, Mycroft's feelings to his youngest sister Eurus were more estranged. Though he recognized the outstanding genius of her superior intellect, Mycroft was aware of Eurus's disturbing personality and actions. Aware of the dangers posed by his sister's psychosis coupled with her abilities, Mycroft supported Eurus's secret institutionalization at Sherrinford with their uncle Rudy's help. Mycroft regards Eurus as a danger first and foremost and conducts himself accordingly, being resistant and unwilling to becoming subject to her manipulations. The mere mention of her, and recalling memories of Eurus, brought even higher guard and dread than even Charles Augustus Magnussen's name. In turn, Eurus had a singular preference for Sherlock and seemingly holds Mycroft with no regard beyond Sherlock's attachment to Mycroft and in comparison with Sherlock's attachment to John. Despite this, Mycroft does hold a measure of sentiment for his younger sister, occasionally speaking to Eurus and exchanging consultations of her genius insight with 'treats' such as a violin and, despite the extreme danger that in part came from it, a genuine unsupervised conversation with Jim Moriarty for five minutes. Though his mother abhorred Mycroft's actions of secretly institutionalizing Eurus for decades, Sherlock recognized that Mycroft had done his best considering everything regarding Eurus. Mycroft also harbors a love for vintage cinema in his home, silently quoting the lines by one of the leads.

## Abilities

* **Genius-Level Intellect**: Mycroft is immensely intelligent and possess incredible analytical and deduction abilities that surpass even his younger brother Sherlock, with Sherlock saying he has always been the "smart one" between them and, as children, even made Sherlock think he was a fool, and is only rivaled by Charles Augustus Magnussen. He is the second most intelligent human on Earth. However, while Mycroft's intellect was professionally referred to as remarkable, he is still not quite as smart as Eurus, who was deemed to be an era defining genius beyond Newton and could perceive things beyond even Mycroft's own scope. However, Mycroft's genius was still enough that he is one of the only three known persons on the Earth, the other two being Sherlock and Moriarty, who can safely interact with Eurus without succumbing to her manipulation abilities and even Eurus admits Mycroft was very clever, able to pick up things on her scope if she went a bit slow for him.
	+ **Deduction**: Mycroft's powers of deduction are extremely high, surpassing even that of Sherlock, who is renowned to be the greatest detective in the world, and is beyond the standards of Charles Augustus Magnussen even though Mycroft relied on Magnussen most heavily. His superiority to Sherlock was shown when he discovered what had happened to a hiker by simply "glancing over the police reports". At one point, he and Sherlock have a deduction battle and, as always, he wins. Mycroft was also able to correct Sherlock's deduction of John and the lilo, by saying it was the sofa, and could perceive that Alex Garrideb was short-sighted but had corrective laser surgery, which Sherlock's deductions had missed, from simply looking at his clothes.
	+ **Mental Resistance**: Due to Mycroft's inhumanly intelligent mind, he possesses extremely strong mental resistance and, coupled with his confidence, he is practically immune to even Sherlock's mind probing and even resisted the more intelligent Eurus' ability to manipulate others instantly despite Eurus's superior intellect, a feat that only 2 other men have ever accomplished, Sherlock Holmes and James Moriarty.

## Personality

Initially, Vivian is shown to be sweet, reserved, and a little absent-minded, but as she reveals herself in the case's climax, it's clear that is not the case. She is revealed to be a highly intelligent, proud, cold, calculating, opportunistic, sociopathic traitor and murderer with many personal problems motivating her to betray her colleagues and country. She had three cats as a way of coping with her husband's passing some time earlier, and a drinking problem exacerbated by grief, isolation and loneliness. She owned property in Cornwall as well as a modest flat in London from the money she made selling secrets 6 years earlier. Vivian is described by Sherlock as very clever but prone to jealousy.

Former assassin, worked as a nurse in a clinic, always wanted to be a field agent, drinks red wine, has a drinking problem, loves to visit the aquarium, owns three cats (two Burmese and a tortoiseshell), widowed, likes mivvies iced lollies, owns a cottage in Cornwall, stays in a flat in West London. Trained assassin who went rogue. Changed her identity to hide from her past. Claimed to be an orphan to cover for the fact that she had no family. English accent but may not have been born British. Only child, clever, nurse, linguist, romantic, disillusioned Liberal Democrat, bakes, secret tattoo, liar, wrote a waltz.

After Sherlock ran away from the hospital, Mary found him after he fed her a series of clues. He projected a picture of her face onto an empty house – saying that it mimicked her personality, a façade. Inside the house, they discussed how she could easily have killed him yet chose not to. Mary said that she would do anything not to have John leave her. However, John was present while she confessed to being an assassin. They returned to Baker Street, where Sherlock told him as much as he knew about her. Mary produced a USB drive that she claimed had everything about who she used to be on it. She begged John not to read it in front of her, because she did not want to watch him stop loving her.

Six months later at Christmas, after a period of separation between Mary and John, John told her that he did not think her past was his business but that her future was his privilege. Mary, now known to be pregnant with a girl, was incredibly relieved. John admitted he was still angry at her, but the two remained together. After Sherlock kills Magnussen, Mary and John see him off in an emotional farewell when he is being exiled and sent on a dangerous mission as part of his punishment. However Sherlock ends up being flown back in when images of the deceased Jim Moriarty start appearing around London, indicating the late master criminal may still be alive.

Mary meets Sherlock in an alcove to show him her past. She knocks him out using some sort of drug and leaves after he has seen the real Mary Watson, also known as Rosamund Watson. Her real maiden name is still unknown. We later find out, in an aquarium, that a government secretary, Vivian, gave the order in a fateful mission in Georgia (the country, not the state) that cost the lives of half of A.G.R.A., Mary's former assassin team. She then shoots Sherlock, but before the bullet could get to him, Mary intercepts it and dies from the bullet wound. John doesn't show up until she is shot, so he blames Sherlock for not protecting her and the two are left on bad terms.

Sweet, kind-hearted, lively, very intelligent, able to tell when someone is lying, able to keep secrets from her past, cared a great deal about her friends, infrequently exhibited sociopathic tendencies, has a ruthless and violent side, willing to murder in order to safeguard her secret from her loved ones.

**Amanda Collins** (born **Helen Collins**) was Division's resident psychologist and master manipulator, then later on its Director. She was in charge of preparing recruits and agents by giving them their tasks and disguises. She soon become a Rogue Agent, working with other former Division and Gogol agents. She was also working with Ari Tasarov, her longtime boyfriend until she betrayed and murdered him; after which, she became a member of the mysterious and powerful organization known as The Invisible Hand before she was imprisoned for life. After the deaths of Percy, Ryan, and Carla, she became the last surviving co-founder of Division as well as it's last surviving former director.

## Personality

Amanda is a chameleon character. When first meeting new recruits she tells them to think of her as a friend and confidant. Amanda spends a great deal of time with her charges, building up their mental resilience and teaching them how to conduct themselves during various missions, and she also seems to enjoy grooming their appearances. She wants them to feel camaraderie with her, which allows her to get inside their heads even more.

Amanda is shown to be extremely manipulative and cunning. Using psychology she is able to manipulate people so subtly they are not even aware she is controlling them and having her way with them. Amanda can outwit nearly anyone as she is able to predict their steps and manipulate them.

Amanda is also sadistic and takes great joy in hurting and controlling others. She enjoys to torture physically and mentally as well. Amanda displayed unhidden pleasure when she had Nikita cornered and enjoys confronting her victims with their mistakes and confuse them.

She had a special grudge against Nikita as Nikita was one of her favorite students before turning on her. This grudge became worse after Nikita did not kill her. when she had the change. Amanda wanted to make Nikita suffer and shape her like she was by making her friends betray her and making her end up all alone with everyone she loved gone.

When Amanda is angry, or feels betrayed, the facade is dropped and reveals someone who could be described as a borderline sociopath. She will torture anyone, no matter how long she has known them, if she thinks they are withholding vital information from her. She can be particularly brutal: During one interrogation she smashed a man's fingers with a hammer and then inserted needles into his nasal cavities to penetrate his brain.

She later became more ambitious and joined several groups to achieve her goals. While feigning loyalty she kept working to achieve power only for herself and was willing to do whatever it takes to get this done.

In spite of her viciousness, however, there are moments when Amanda lets a more vulnerable and caring side of her personality emerge, and she has been shown to be capable of empathy and kindness.

## Abilities

She was cunning and calculating, a tactical adept. She was also a markswoman, an excellent shot with small handguns, showing reflexes and perfect timing, able to shoot a hole in a fifty-pence coin when tossed in the air.  She also had a photographic and extensive memory.  She is also able to mimic different accents, such as a New York one.

## Relationships

### John Watson

Mary Morstan and John Watson met while they were still under the impression that Sherlock was dead and while they had not known each other for a particularly long time, they loved each other enough for John to propose to her and Mary to accept. They eventually got married, and John also told Sherlock that both he and Mary were people that had changed his life completely and that they were the two he loved and cared about the most. Sherlock also figured out that Mary was pregnant with John's baby.  Their relationship remained stable until John heard Mary profess to having been an assassin, that she had been the one to shoot Sherlock and that everything he thought he knew about her past had been lies (something she hoped he would never find out). John got very angry with Mary and she was prepared for him to leave her, a thought she could not bear. However John eventually chose to accept that Mary had lied to him and not to have every detail about her past revealed to him, along with the fact that he must be attracted to danger as he had been drawn to people like Sherlock and Mary. John told her that the problems of her past were her business, but the problems of her future were his privilege. John threw the USB drive containing information on Mary's former identity into the fire, watching the flames consume it. Though he was still disappointed in her, they stayed together and loved each other. Mary was mentioned by Magnussen later as being John's "pressure point".

### Sherlock Holmes

Mary was initially shocked when Sherlock revealed he was alive but did not react as strongly as John did, and told John that she liked Sherlock when they were alone together.  Mary and John originally had to look after Sherlock, getting him out of the house and so on, showing that Mary cares for Sherlock, possibly as an "extension" of her love for John. She is fairly friendly towards Sherlock, considering his supposed psychopathic tendencies and the difficulties in making friendships these bring. He was the best man at her wedding to John and she even seemed to want all three of them to dance together. However Sherlock felt troubled when he realised Mary was pregnant, meaning she and John would hardly need Sherlock around with a real baby on the way.  Mary was considering coming to Sherlock as a client about her case with Magnussen. She is still not averse to hurting him, as shown when she shot him, though killing him would take it a step too far (showing a care not usually shown by assassins such as herself). She also purposefully shot Sherlock in a spot where it wouldn't surely kill him and called an ambulance right away, making sure he would be hospitalised and that his life could be saved. This made Sherlock defend her actions, though he admitted that she gave him mixed messages. Sherlock was less concerned about the fact that she was a former assassin than he was about her lying to John. But he reconciled with her just like John did and when he shot Magnussen, he exclaimed "Give my love to Mary", as this was something Mary wanted done and Sherlock had vowed to do anything for the couple, as he cared so much about John. He was pleased to hear Mary say that she would make sure to keep John in trouble when Sherlock was going on exile.

### Charles Augustus Magnussen

Magnussen heavily stalked Mary for her past life, and knew many personal details about her. This would drive Mary to attempt to murder Magnussen but she would be intervened by Sherlock Holmes. While going through his imaginary "files" on Mary in his Mind Palace, Magnussen referred to her as a naughty girl who had killed and harmed many people and claimed he understood why John liked her. Magnussen's knowledge of her previous life drove Mary to plan to murder him. Sherlock Holmes ended up doing this for her, giving Mary the freedom to have a life with John.

**Irene Adler**, professionally known as "**The Woman**", was a celebrity dominatrix and extortionist who had a brief attraction to Sherlock Holmes.

Whilst Mycroft is telling Sherlock about Irene, he states that she is a dominatrix who gives out 'recreational scolding' to people. She has been in the middle of two political scandals in recent years, one of them involving a famous author, in which she had an affair with both sides.

She is brought to Sherlock's attention when he and John are summoned to Buckingham Palace by Mycroft and are asked to take on a case of national importance. Irene had taken compromising images of a young female member of the British Royal family during a dominatrix session.

Even though Irene does not want money or power for the pictures, Sherlock is tasked in getting them back. She is using them, and other information on her mobile phone, for her 'protection'.

She is presumed dead, with the only information on her given by Mycroft Holmes, mentioning that she was captured by a terror cell and beheaded.

A flash back at the end of the episode shows that when she was about to be executed by the terrorist, she sent a goodbye text message to Sherlock. We then hear the distinctive text message alert that denotes a text message from Adler to Sherlock (she set his phone to play a recording of her earlier in the episode) coming from behind her. The executioner is revealed to be Sherlock in disguise and the two battle their way out, presumably successfully.

Whilst John is watching Sherlock at the end of "The Lying Detective", Sherlock receives a text message with the distinctive Adler alert sound. John hears it and figures out that Adler is still alive and correctly guesses that it's Sherlock's birthday and that that's why Adler sent the text.

## Personality

Adler is scheming and manipulative. She uses her profession to gain insight into the top secret activities of individuals and governments. She compiles these on a cameraphone with which she plans to extort the British government. She has significant connections in the criminal underworld, including hiring Moriarty to help her get the most use out of her leverage.

Even Sherlock and Mycroft admires her ingenuity. As a dominatrix, she enjoys BDSM activities and is not ashamed to reference these in conversation. Adler can be cold and calculating one minute hot and heavy the next. She flirts jokingly with men like John and Mycroft to prove her dominance over them. She self-identifies as a lesbian, but maintains her attraction to Sherlock.

Tall, English, in her 30s, dark hair in a vintage-inspired updo, bright red lipstick, skintight black and white dresses.

## Relationships

### Sherlock Holmes

Adler and Sherlock have a complex relationship. Her flirtatious interactions are undermined by the fact she engaged with him in the first place to extort the British government.

Mycroft dispatches Sherlock to recover incriminating pictures of an undisclosed member of the Royal family taken by Irene Adler. Disguised, Sherlock attempts to infiltrate Adler’s home but she is expecting him. She appears naked rattling Sherlock and rendering him unable to make deductions. When the CIA arrives and forces him to open her safe, he deduces the passcode - Adler’s bust, waist, and hip measurements. Then, Adler incapacitates Sherlock and beats him into submission, taking the camera phone. While unconscious, Sherlock dreams about the hiker case and she helps him solve it. She reiterates her famous line, “Brainy... definitely the new sexy.”

In the subsequent months, Adler flirts with him over text. Come Christmastime, Adler sends him her precious cameraphone and a body resembling hers appears dead. Sherlock lapses into depression.

Irene reappears seeking Sherlock’s help. He deciphers Moriarty’s plane bombing plan in less than four seconds to impress her. Later, Adler initiates an intimate moment with Sherlock, asking if he’d like to have dinner, but he appears confused and does not reciprocate. When Adler’s plan is revealed to Sherlock via Mycroft, she berates him for believing that she was interested in him, but he exposes her lie, saying her elevated pulse meant she liked him after all. He guesses the password of her all-important camera phone is, “I AM SHER-LOCKED”, and she is forced to flee.

Mycroft receives word that Adler has been executed by Iranian terrorists but it is revealed that Sherlock saved her, suggesting a level of shared sentiment. He keeps her camera phone in his breast pocket, near his heart.

Adler sometimes appears naked in Sherlock's "mind palace" while he is making deductions. She is named as one of Sherlock's 'pressure points' by Charles Augustus Magnussen and Eurus implies she and Sherlock had sex.

Irene continues texting at Sherlock on occasion, having sent him a message on his birthday, unknowingly letting Watson know that she's still alive and deduce that Sherlock saved her.

### John Watson

During their first meeting, John interrupts Adler's attempt to seduce Sherlock, and is thereafter visibly uncomfortable whenever the two of them are in a room together. He teases Sherlock about his fixation on Adler and jokingly suggests they use 'Hamish' for a baby name. She managed to fake her death on Christmas, but when she reappears to Watson, alive, he accuses her of playing with Sherlock's feelings. When she is believed dead after Sherlock deduces her phone's password, John tells Sherlock Irene sought a new identity from an American witness protection program to spare his feelings after hearing Mycroft's story that she was killed by terrorists.

Later, Watson discovers that she's alive, Adler having sent Sherlock a text message on his birthday upon hearing the text alert she placed on Sherlock's phone. He encourages Sherlock to pursue his feelings for Irene, signifying that despite her criminal reputation, he acknowledges her as a potential significant other for Sherlock.

### Jim Moriarty

Adler consults with Jim Moriarty on how to properly manipulate Mycroft and Sherlock Holmes.

### Mycroft Holmes

Mycroft Holmes is an adversary of Irene's, whom she blackmails several times within "A Scandal in Belgravia".

### Molly Hooper

After Sherlock remarks he can identify Adler from just her body, Molly is rendered slack-jawed with disbelief, and believes the two were in an intimate relationship.

### Kate

Kate is Adler's assistant and close friend. She consults with her on fashion and is privy to details about Irene's clients. It is also implied she is one of Irene's sexual partners, when Irene comments, "Well, God knows she is used to that" after being informed that Kate is unconscious. This is further implied by Adler's remark that, "Everything works on you" while they discussed Irene's choice of outfit.

* Her measurements are 32-24-34

## Relationships

### Sherlock Holmes

Throughout most of the series, Molly has romantic feelings for Sherlock Holmes. Although he initially acts coldly to her, usually only exploiting these feelings to attain assistance or priveleges, Molly and Sherlock eventually develop a friendship as Molly grows confidence in herself and Sherlock realizes how much she means to him.

At the beginning of the series, Sherlock seems to know Molly has feelings for him, yet remains impassive or confused whenever she attempts to further their relationship. He is often unintentionally rude to her, which is a source of great contention with Molly. After Molly finally stands up for herself, however, Sherlock begins to realize how his actions have affected her. He apologizes to her and the two begin to become friends.

As their friendship progresses, her romantic affections for him become muted, if still lingering ever-so-slightly. Meanwhile, Sherlock grows to rely more on Molly. As well as becoming much less rude to her, in The Reichenbach Fall , he admits that he needs her help, and even concedes that she was the "one who mattered the most" to him.

After John refuses to solve crimes with Sherlock, Molly is asked to partner with him instead. While Molly initially feels awkward, Sherlock reassures her, saying that she only needs to be herself. At the end of their day together, Sherlock reveals he asked her to spend the day with him in order to thank her for her help in faking his death and invites her to dine with him that evening. Molly declines and explains she is engaged to Tom, her fiancé. Sherlock congratulates her on finally loving a man who is not a sociopath. This, because Sherlock has labelled himself a "sociopath" many times in the past, implies that he believes he himself is not a good match for her. Before the two go their separate ways, Sherlock wishes her the best in her new relationship, saying she "deserves to be happy." Then, before parting ways with her, he kisses Molly on the cheek.

During Molly's engagement to Tom, the dynamic between the two shifts – Molly claims she has moved on; yet traces of her previous crush still linger. The fiancé dresses and looks remarkably like Sherlock, something everyone – including Sherlock – notices, but refuse to announce to her. It doesn't take long for her relationship with Tom to start to show signs of wear and annoyance for Molly. It is clear that, although he might look and dress like Sherlock, Tom is not half as brilliant. The engagement between the two, therefore, breaks off.

When on the run, it is revealed that one of Sherlock's 'bolt-holes' is at Molly's house. At first, she states that he has stayed in her spare room. However, she awkwardly corrects herself, explaining that he, in fact, stays in her bedroom because they "agreed he needed the space".

Jim Moriarty spared her life when targeting Sherlock's friends. It is possible Jim was not aware of the depth of Molly's importance to Sherlock. This is further implied when Sherlock claims Moriarty's biggest mistake was in not considering that Molly mattered.

We can again see Molly's importance to Sherlock when Mary shoots Sherlock in the chest. He imagines Molly in his mind palace and with her help, and a little input from Mycroft, Anderson and Redbeard, he survives the shooting.

Their relationship changes greatly in "The Final Problem". Sherlock is forced to say to her "I love you". It is implied that the viewer may interpret this as he chooses, but many assume that it is the peak of the humanization of Sherlock, and that he probably, in fact, meant it.

### John Watson

Molly and Dr John Watson do not interact much, and when Sherlock is around she sometimes neglects to remember his name. However, it is obvious that John likes Molly platonically and holds her in high esteem. This is not only for her various efforts in helping him and Sherlock solve cases, but also because of her sweet, unassuming personality. Moreover, John – aware of her crush on Sherlock as well his friend's lack of reciprocation of these feelings – feels sorry for Molly for all the times Sherlock uses her infatuation to manipulate her into doing whatever he asks. He often chides Sherlock for his behavior towards Molly and tries to make him treat her better.

Molly was a guest at John's wedding. Later, she becomes a godmother for his daughter, Rosamund Mary.

### Jim Moriarty

Molly and Jim Moriarty date briefly. However she only knows him as 'Jim from IT'. After 'Jim's' attempt at giving Sherlock his phone number, she breaks up with him. She describes their meeting as an 'office romance', as Jim was posing as an IT worker at the time. He did this to get close to her and, through doing so, meet Sherlock Holmes. She is furious when Sherlock announces Jim is gay, pointing out bluntly that Jim has left his number for Sherlock to call. Frustrated and humiliated, Molly tries to deny Sherlock's deductions, but is unable to do so. Near to tears, she abruptly storms off, leaving Sherlock startled and unsure of what happened. She breaks up with Jim some time afterwards. Jim then meets Sherlock and John, mocking him for falling for his act.

Molly tries to contact him via her blog, but after she discovers his true identity she discontinues it because "it was all a lie".

Neither of the two mention each other again, and although their interactions are limited, Jim chose to spare her life when targeting Sherlock's closest friends, selecting DI Greg Lestrade instead.

### Greg Lestrade

Molly and Greg share a friendly relationship. He gawks at Molly's appearance, suggesting that he found her attractive, and offered her a glass of wine. However, he has not been seen expressing feelings towards her again other than that as he knows that Molly is in love with Sherlock.

### Tom

Molly was engaged to Tom. She says that they met through friends. It is implied that she is attracted to him because he looks and dresses a lot like Sherlock.  They attend John's and Mary's wedding together. However, Molly is embarrassed when Tom attempts to solve the case of The Bloody Guardsman, ordering him to sit down after he suggests the weapon was a knife made of meat and bone. She later stabs him mildly in the hand with her fork when he speaks and further embarrasses her. Despite the strained appearance of the couple, they pose for photographs and dance together.  Not long after, the relationship faltered and they broke it off.

### Rosamund Mary Watson

Rosamund Mary Watson is Molly's goddaughter. John and Mary Watson asked Molly, Mrs. Hudson and Sherlock to be Rosie's godparents. Molly was present at the Christening and accepted her duties as Rosie's godmother. When John and Mary have to run off to Sherlock it is Molly they call to take care of Rosie. And after Mary's death it is Molly who is taking care of Rosie, while John deals with his grief.

## Trivia

* Like Sherlock and John, Molly has her own blog.
* Molly states on her blog that she has a cat called Toby.
* Molly is one of the few recurring characters not based on a character from the canon stories. Steven Moffat said that Louise Brealey was "so fantastic" in the role of Molly that they broke their rule of not adding any regular characters not from the original stories written by Sir Arthur Conan Doyle .
* When asked about Molly, Steven Moffat stated that the creators of the show "often forget that they invented Molly" and see her as adding a lot of depth to Sherlock's story.

"*You're wrong, you know. You do count. You've always counted and I've always trusted you.*"
―Sherlock to Molly [src]
**Molly Hooper** is a specialist registrar in the morgue at St. Bartholomew's Hospital in London.

**Martha Louise Hudson** (née **Sissons**) is the landlady of 221B and 221C Baker Street. She rents 221B out to Sherlock Holmes and Dr John Watson. Mrs Hudson lives in the same building in a flat of her own.

Sherlock won his way into her good graces after ensuring that her husband was executed for a double-murder in Florida. Due to his assistance, she allowed Sherlock and John to have the flat at a lower cost than what it is worth. According to John, it is in a "prime location".

Despite repeated declarations that she is not their housekeeper, she fusses over Sherlock and they share somewhat of a 'mother-son' relationship. Even Mycroft is far more casual than usual with her, and atypically flummoxed when he tells her to "for God's sake, shut up, Mrs Hudson!".

## Series One

Sherlock mentions to John that she offers him a special deal on the rent because he helped her out by ensuring the conviction and execution of her husband in Florida.

## Series Two

Mrs Hudson's character is further improved in the second series, as well as how much Sherlock values her. When Mycroft Holmes tells her to shut up, Sherlock is immediately provoked to snap at his brother (Which is one of the very few times that Sherlock is seen to have done so). Mrs Hudson also becomes more directly involved with a case when 221B is attacked by apparent CIA operatives looking for a video phone that Irene Adler has left in Sherlock's possession; when the agents torture Mrs Hudson trying to find the phone, the normally aloof Sherlock throws the agent responsible out of an upper-level window – apparently several times – and later (when John suggests for her own safety she takes a leave) reaffirms his affection for her by stating that "England would fall" if Mrs Hudson left Baker Street. It is heavily displayed that Sherlock violently assaulted the agent before throwing him out of the window

She is one of the three people who make up the full list of "Everyone you care about", each of whom Moriarty threatens to kill if Sherlock fails to commit suicide.

## Series Three

John Watson returns to Baker Street to visit Mrs Hudson, who is visibly upset at the lack of contact he has had with her since the two years of Sherlock being gone. She confronts him about how hurt she was, that for two years he never once contacted her, after all, they went through. She tells him she understands how difficult it was for him, to which Watson tells her how he let it slide, and it just got harder and harder to pick up the phone. Mrs Hudson and John return to the flat, revealing that she left it just as Sherlock had it. John tells her he is getting married, and Mrs Hudson asks what his name is. John assures her that it is a woman. Mrs Hudson is delighted at the news. Later when Sherlock comes back to Baker Street to show he is still alive, Mrs Hudson hears a noise and arms herself with a frying pan. She screams at the top of her lungs.

After Sherlock has reclaimed his room a Baker Street, Mrs Hudson brings Sherlock his tea and excitedly talks about "the big day" – John's wedding. After Sherlock and John's stag party, she makes John a full breakfast (much to his nausea) and goes on about how different life will be once he is married. She reveals a lot more information about Mr Hudson (as she briefly mentions his first name is "Frank"), and that it was purely a physical relationship and she knew it would never last; however, she was completely unaware of his "other activities" until the police arrested him for "blowing someone's head off". It was revealed that he was running a drug cartel, and had relationships with many other women. Mrs Hudson was rather relieved once he was arrested.

Kind, caring, motherly, looks after her tenants, thinks family is all we have in the end.

## Trivia

* In the "Unaired Pilot", Mrs Hudson owned the Speedy's Cafe shop, which was called 'Mrs Hudson's Snax n' Sarnies'.
* She has a bad hip, although it does not appear to impair her mobility, and uses what she describes as "herbal soothers" for the pain.
* She owns an expensive sports car. (When John asks how its possible, Mrs Hudson points out that "I'm the widow of a drug dealer; I own property in Central London; and for the last bloody time, I'm not your housekeeper!")
* She gives Sherlock tea in the morning; however, he thought it just "sort of happened" before the *Sign of Three* as he was never awake that early.
* Enjoys playing scratch-cards.
* Interestingly, the moments where Sherlock is provoked into rare and extreme violence or anger is when Mrs Hudson is insulted, or when her life is in danger.
* Is apparently a fan of Connie Prince. (She and John Watson enjoy 'trash telly'.)
* Sherlock and John discuss buying her a laptop for Christmas so she does not have to borrow Mrs Turner's (John's Blog).
* It is implied by Sherlock that her husband was guilty of double murder and executed by lethal injection.
* A running joke throughout the series is she believes John to be gay. (This is dropped in Season 4, with his marriage to Mary.)
* Revealed by Charles Augustus Magnussen's information that her full name is Martha Louise Hudson (née Sissons), Widow. A semi-reformed alcoholic. Occupation: Landlady, a former exotic dancer. Her "pressure point" is marijuana.
* During a cast Q and A, Una gave her opinions of what Mrs Hudson does for Sherlock. (Sherlock apparently eats rubbish unless Mrs Hudson cooks for him.)

* He is shown using nicotine patches in order to concentrate during cases, a trait he shares with Sherlock Holmes. Later, he is seen smoking regular cigarettes. While seeing this, Sherlock states "Those things will kill you".
* After being estranged from his wife, he says that he is getting back with her; however Sherlock says that she is having an affair with a PE teacher (which surprises him).
	+ He splits up with his wife after this incident and is no longer wearing his wedding ring, a visible tan line evident on his finger.
	+ Rupert Graves was given no instructions on how to respond to Sherlock claiming that his wife was having an affair with a PE teacher. Hence, in that scene, he had a face of awkwardness and confusion. This improvised scene was later carried on to the final product of the show.
* In the original stories, Lestrade's first name is never fully revealed; however, in "The Adventure of the Cardboard Box" it is said to begin with G. It is possible the series' use of Greg as his first name is a reference to Inspector Tobias Gregson, another recurring police inspector character from the original series with whom Lestrade is possibly a composite character, as Gregson tended to be rather less dismissive of Holmes' abilities than Lestrade.
* In the first episode, he says "Sherlock Holmes is a great man, and some day... he might even be a good one." In the Final Problem, this comes to pass when Sherlock, after years of friendship provided by John Watson, asks Lestrade to look after Mycroft while he's in shock. When one of his officers calls Sherlock a great man, Lestrade corrects him "No. He's a good one."
* Royal Army Medical Corps (formerly) Fifth Northumberland Fusiliers (formerly) Scotland Yard

John went to King Edward VI Grammar School in Chelmsford. He studied medicine at King's College (London), where he also did his Bachelor of Medicine and Surgery in 2004. John worked at the Broomfield Hospital Chelmsford and the University College Hospital London. He was trained at St. Bartholomew's Hospital as a British Army doctor and served as a Captain in the Fifth Northumberland Fusiliers. John was deployed to Afghanistan, where he served for three years until being shot in the shoulder. He recovered from the physical wound, but was left with psychological trauma – a psychosomatic limp and an intermittent tremor in his dominant hand. The limp was bad enough to require a cane to help him walk, and shortly thereafter he was discharged from service.

PTSD.

extremely brave, resourceful and practical. He is extremely loyal to Sherlock, and will usually, but not always, do what Sherlock asks him to, and cares a great deal about his well-being. Sherlock likewise cares about John. He is also very selfless and modest, as he puts himself at colossal personal risks to help Sherlock Holmes and is rather sceptical about his companion's ideals. He is very sarcastic and has an erratic sense of humour.

John deals with lack of stimulation little better than Sherlock does, the difference being that when Sherlock is bored he is very vocal in his frustration; when John feels that "nothing ever happens", he withdraws into a shell and shows strong tendencies towards depression (possibly exacerbated by his post-traumatic issues). He is adept at reading people through facial expressions, whilst Sherlock relies on his surroundings, on clothing and personality displays to read people.

## Abilities

* **Expert Physician**: According to his CV, John is "able to recognize and give immediate and appropriate treatment to a wide range" of illnesses and dysfunctions, including "myocardial infarction, acute coronary syndrome, pulmonary embolus and Sickle Cell Crisis, deep vein thrombosis, acute asthma attack, severe exacerbation of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, diabetic keto-acidosis, community and hospital acquired pneumonia, seizures, poisoning/overdose, acute abdomen and post-operative oliguria hypotension".
* **Expert Marksman**: Due to his military career, John is incredibly proficient with firearms, far more so than Sherlock or Lestrade, proving to be able to judge the distance and split-second timing of a shot across a large area with two windows in the way, and fatally wound his target while missing Sherlock, who was standing very close to the target.
* **Expert Combatant**: His military career has also given John skill in unarmed combat.*[citation needed]* His skill in unarmed combat is also displayed where he sprains someone's arm in a single move and, as he is a medical expert, he is perfectly aware that he sprained it and how bad it should be.

Has few close friends, never responds when people assume she is gay.

John is also fond of Mrs Hudson. Both Sherlock and John become angry at Mycroft for telling Mrs Hudson to shut up, and John fusses over her after she had been attacked by CIA agents. Since neither of the two men are on good terms with their relatives, they may form a sort of surrogate family between them.

## Trivia

* He played the clarinet when he was at school.
* He has had multiple girlfriends, whose relationships with him do not seem to last long.
* He played rugby at the Blackheath Rugby team.

"*I'm a consulting detective. The only one in the world. I invented the job.*"
―Sherlock to John Watson [src]
**Sherlock Holmes** (born **William Sherlock Scott Holmes**) is the world's only consulting detective, a profession he created for himself. He is based in London and often consulted by Greg Lestrade of New Scotland Yard, usually taking his best friend and flatmate, John Watson, on cases. He has a keen and strong interest in unusual or bizarre crimes, without which he rapidly becomes bored, relying on nicotine to keep his brain active, although in the past he has dabbled in illegal drugs such as heroin for entertainment.

Sherlock is a thinker and an observer; his incredible ability to notice and draw deductions from seemingly trivial details is his primary tool for solving crimes he investigates. He also often utilizes his "mind palace", a tool for remembering the smallest of details and visually organizing his memories. However, his unusual and somewhat anti-social personality and characteristic has led to many in the official police force distrusting and disliking him.

Sherlock claims on more than one occasion to be a "high-functioning sociopath". However, according to Jim Moriarty, as well as Sherlock's own actions and displays of emotion and empathy, this may not be true. Sherlock does not seem to exhibit any of the symptoms of an anti-social personality disorder. John jokes once, to explain Sherlock's behavior, that he might suffer from Asperger's Syndrome, a disorder on the autism spectrum, though this has never been confirmed.

Sherlock was born on 6th January 1977, 1981, or 1983 and spent his early childhood at Musgrave Hall, the Holmes family home located somewhere in the countryside. He was raised by his mother (a genius mathematician), alongside his father, who describes himself as 'something of a moron' compared to his wife . He grew up with his older brother Mycroft (seven years his senior), who Sherlock in later years claims would belittle him and try to frighten him with stories of 'the East Wind'.  He also had a younger sister named Eurus (one year his junior), who taught him the violin.

During his early years, Sherlock befriended a boy named Victor Trevor, with whom he became 'inseparable'. The pair often played pirates together, nicknaming each other ‘Yellowbeard’ (Sherlock) and ‘Redbeard’ (Victor). Eurus harbored jealousy of Sherlock’s friendship with Victor and imprisoned Victor in a deep well, where he would ultimately die. She sang a song to Sherlock in hopes that it would lead him to her, but Sherlock misunderstood the lyrics as a set of directions that would lead him to Victor.

Eurus' animosity towards Sherlock following this led her to burn down Musgrave Hall, supposedly to kill him.

Sherlock never discovered the truth of Victor's fate and became severely traumatized, with Mycroft later claiming that he was much changed afterwards from the 'emotional child' he'd been before. To cope with the loss, Sherlock manifested a memory of owning a pet dog named Redbeard in place of his memories of Victor. As Eurus was taken away and institutionalized, his memory of her gradually faded over time.

In 1989, Sherlock learned about the death of child athlete swimmer, Carl Powers. Upon reading that Powers' trainers were missing, Sherlock began to consider the case suspicious. He attempted to enlist the police force's help, but his attempts were denied, and the case was ultimately dismissed.

Sherlock went to university to read chemistry but was unpopular with other students. Sebastian Wilkes, who was at university with him, later mentions how Sherlock would 'put the windup everybody' by deducing things about their private lives.

Sherlock is said to have struggled with drugs in earlier years, at some point reaching an agreement with Mycroft that he would always write a list of anything he had taken.  It is implied that some of these struggled originated in Sherlock's trauma regarding the loss of Victor Trevor, as Mycroft has noted down 'Redbeard' from a time when he'd found Sherlock high.

In 2004, Sherlock befriended Inspector Greg Lestrade, (after aiding him in solving a case) and through Lestrade became affiliated with the London police force with whom he maintained a rather difficult partnership with several police officers: Sally Donovan and Philip Anderson in particular distrusted him for his over-zealousness at crime scenes and harsh disposition.

At some point, Sherlock managed to gain access to St Bartholomew's Hospital, where he utilised the equipment to conduct experiments. It was here that he met pathologist Molly Hooper, who developed a secret affection for him.

## Personality

"*Oh, do your research. I’m not a hero- I’m a high-functioning sociopath,*"
―Sherlock to Magnussen
Perhaps Sherlock's most noticeable trait is his proneness to boredom. He is continuously agitated by the lack of work, describing peace as "hateful". Even if a case is offered to him, he won't take it unless he finds it sufficiently attractive (though it is worth noting that he seems to lower his standards as he gets more desperate). In the absence of casework that meets his criteria, he will go to extreme lengths to keep himself occupied, such as repeatedly shooting the wall of his flat with live rounds, and even turning to drugs in more extreme situations; he claims that he is a "user" of narcotics on more than one occasion, which helps to increase his thought process. He even went so far as to accuse the criminal class of slackening, viewing that as the reason for his boredom. He labels himself as a high functioning sociopath, but is more likely to have Asperger syndrome.

Sherlock also has a blatant disregard for rules and etiquette. He once wore only a bedsheet to Buckingham Palace and was willing to walk out of there naked, greatly embarrassing Mycroft.

Sherlock has a major manipulative streak and will often take advantage of people to get his way. For example, knowing Molly has a crush on him, he will occasionally flatter her to gain access to the morgue he would not otherwise have. John, on the other hand, is sometimes subject to experiments. In one particular instance, when Sherlock needs to test out a drug, he sneaks it into John's coffee. When John tries to say "I don't take sugar," Sherlock effectively uses a 'kicked puppy' look to guilt John into finishing the drink.

He seems to have a sense of humour, though it is very sarcastic and can be quite dark sometimes. Sherlock is amused, most notably, by the stupidity of others in comparison to himself. He also often makes quips at the expense of his brother, Mycroft, usually about his dieting habits or his posh job. Sherlock is incredibly unamused; however, by John's blog. He thinks the titles John gives their cases, such as "The Geek Interpreter", or "The Speckled Blonde", are ridiculous, and he finds the fame that comes with being an 'internet phenomenon' distasteful and funny. He was also deterred by the prospect of having to wear his now-iconic deerstalker in public for the cameras. In "The Lying Detective", he puts it on before heading out to have cake for his birthday, stating "I'm Sherlock Holmes. I wear the damn hat."

One quality that Sherlock lacks entirely is tact, which is one of the main reasons that he is disliked so heavily by so many people. He often doesn't notice when his accurate deductions about other people's personal lives offend them, including the implication that Anderson and Sally Donovan were having an affair - that being said, neither of them did anything to soften his opinion of them. He is incredibly antagonistic towards the officers at Scotland Yard, particularly Anderson and Sally Donovan, which is often relayed with a cutting remark from the latter. It does seem, though that, over time, Sherlock is becoming increasingly aware of his ability to insult, occasionally asking John "Not good?" when he does see that he has upset someone.

Although he puts forth a cold-hearted and rough exterior, Sherlock does have a kind, caring side. Despite telling John that not caring about people makes it easier to do his job, Sherlock has concern for the people involved in his cases. During one of their earlier instances, when John's girlfriend Sarah was kidnapped by Chinese smugglers, Sherlock focused on saving her rather than catching the smugglers themselves and comforted her gently while untying her, even though he had not seemed to like her much previously. And again, in one of his first confrontations with Moriarty, he looks very emotionally affected when he is unable to save the life of an older woman. A bit later, at Baskerville, he tries to talk Henry down from taking his own life. He reacted with compassion towards his younger sister, Eurus Holmes, upon learning the secret behind her childhood song. When Eurus became uncommunicative following their final game at Musgrave Hall, Sherlock visited her and played his violin for her, eventually eliciting a reaction from her. He continued visiting Sherrinford and playing for Eurus over the years, later able to hold a violin recital of the two of them for their parents and Mycroft, reflecting in Eurus some measure of mental recovery and also Sherlock's dedicated care to his newly learned sister, apparently forgiving her for her responsibility of Victor Trevor's death and the subsequent trauma. He also despises criminals such as Charles Augustus Magnussen, who disgusted him more than any criminal he ever dealt with and described Culverton Smith as a monster.

Sherlock is the most protective towards the people he is close to, however. Even though it often seems like he takes Mrs Hudson for granted, he is enraged when he finds that she has been roughed up by an American operative, going so far as to tie him up and throw him out the window - so many times he "lost count". Later, when John insists that she go stay with her sister for a while, Sherlock tells him that if Mrs Hudson left Baker Street, "England would fall", while putting a comforting arm around her. This protective nature extends to all his friends, to the point that he is willing to fake his death to save them.

John and Sherlock, however, share a unique relationship. Sherlock cannot be considered a man with many friends; his attitude and cutting words often ward people away, but with John, he makes an effort. John is intelligent, though not as brilliant as Sherlock, lacking Holmes' observational skills and his unique insight into crime. John, however, does have great idea in his analysis of relationships, which Sherlock may dismiss, though often does prove to come in handy. The pair seems to have very compatible senses of humor, and Sherlock does generally appear to appreciate John's love of danger and risk-taking, even confessing to John that he "doesn't have friends. [He] just has one". He never denies it when people incorrectly assume that they are romantic partners.

When John asks Sherlock to be his best man, Sherlock is stunned into silence. He later reveals, during a very long and touching speech at the wedding, that he'd never expected to be anyone's best man because he'd "never expected to be anybody's best friend."

Sherlock shares a somewhat complicated relationship with his older brother, Mycroft Holmes. Mycroft does seem to worry a great deal about Sherlock, often rallying his younger brother's friends to ensure his safety (specifically to prevent an implied relapse), and attempting to protect Sherlock when they thought Irene Adler had died. While he does show, at times, childlike frustration with his elder brother, Sherlock never dismisses him as he does with clients or police officers he finds truly annoying or tedious. Mycroft also seems comfortable with the idea of going to Sherlock for help with issues of national security, showing once again an innate sense of trust in his younger sibling.

Though he was unaware of it, his younger sister, Eurus Holmes, had profoundly influenced Sherlock's person to the extent that, as Mycroft remarked, every choice Sherlock made, every path he ever took, the man Sherlock is, is Sherlock's memory of Eurus. When Eurus made Victor Trevor, Sherlock's childhood best friend, disappear, Sherlock was so traumatized by the loss that he rewrote his memories of Victor and Eurus, remembering Victor as his pet dog Redbeard and forgetting Eurus entirely. Mycroft noted that, because of what Eurus did, Sherlock substantially changed in personality from the emotional child he was to the cold, a deductive and logical man that he was introduced as in the series.

Irene Adler deduces that he believes in a higher power which is himself, an assertion that Sherlock neither confirmed or denied.

Sherlock runs his own website, The Science of Deduction.

## Appearance

Sherlock is a tall, svelte man appearing no more than in his late thirties, with pale skin and dark, curly hair. His look is designed to stand out in contrast to John, who is shorter, with straight blonde hair. His eyes can appear to be silver, blue or even green depending on the light. Sherlock's iconic outfit consists of a long ulster coat, the collar spiked up (which John calls out for being part of his "cool" image), and a dark blue scarf. Beneath his coat, he always wears a black suit with a dress shirt, no tie. During mornings in his flat, he would sometimes skip the suit jacket and instead wears a dressing gown in camel, crimson, blue or tartan. Sherlock can also be seen wearing the famous checkered deerstalker hat. He has been known, on occasion, to wear nothing but a bedsheet.

## Abilities

* **Genius-Level Intellect**: Sherlock Holmes has an extremely high intellect and masterful observational skills. He is presumably the third most intelligent character on the show currently alive, with only his elder brother Mycroft and younger sister Eurus surpassing him in intelligence. However, Sherlock's intelligence was sufficient that he was able to resist Eurus's manipulation abilities. His intelligence is thanks in part to a highly developed “mind palace”, a memory technique that allows him to memorize vast amounts of information.
	+ **Deduction**: Sherlock has many well-developed abilities that aid him with his detective work, including a profound aptitude for deductive reasoning.
	+ **Investigation**: He often uses a memory retrieval technique called "the method of loci", which he refers to as his 'mind palace'. John describes this system of storing memories as plotting them on a map of a familiar location and retrieving those memories by finding the way back to them, to theoretically never forget anything. To use this skill, Sherlock requires silence and space to himself to reduce outside interference.
	+ **Cold Readings**: Upon meeting a person, he will often "scan" them, using elements of their appearance and behavior to arrive at astonishingly accurate conclusions about their past or personality. He sometimes even performs cold readings on a location such as an apartment to deduce a trait related to the current resident. His cold readings are usually performed subconsciously, as his brain was still performing them and deducing things about people and places in front of him when he was heavily intoxicated on John's stag night and severely depressed after Mary's death. However, Sherlock is not infallible, as he admits "there is always something" that he misses or misinterprets.
* **Expert Scientist**: *To be added*
* **Master Tactician**: *To be added*
* **Skilled Martial Artist**: He also shows great skill in both armed and unarmed combat. In reference to his Conan Doyle counterpart, the rules of the combat discipline Baritsu hang over his bed. He often uses his deductive reasoning to identify weaknesses of his opponents before he strikes them, only losing in fights when he is taken by surprise. Sherlock's unarmed skills are great enough that he was able to fight a professional assassin on even footing for an extended period of time. However, he was overpowered by John when John was angered due to the death of his wife and was no match for his mind's manifestation of Moriarty when they fought, though he was holding back with John and what happened with Moriarty was inside his head.
* **Espionage Proficiency**: Sherlock has also proven incredible espionage talents. Despite not having spoken to Irene Adler for months, Sherlock was able to follow her to Pakistan, pose as her executioner and save her life, keeping this a secret from (possibly) everyone.
* **Master Violinist**: Sherlock has shown considerable ability to play the violin on multiple occasions. He even stated he sometimes composes his own pieces, as it "helps him think".

## Relationships

### John Watson

Sherlock states, both implicitly and explicitly, that he has no friends, except for John. They live at 221B Baker Street, which they rent from Mrs Hudson at a discounted rate due to Sherlock's help in getting her husband executed. In a confrontation with Moriarty, he forces Sherlock into complying by threatening to have one of his snipers kill John. Sherlock is visibly put on the back foot by this and only rallies around at the end of the encounter when he, with John's nodded consent, threatens to blow up the bomb jacket.

John and Sherlock's friendship continued to solidify with Sherlock announcing to John that he does not have friends, "just one". In the final confrontation with Moriarty, Sherlock fakes his death to avoid his three friends (including John) being killed. After an emotional farewell via a phone call, Sherlock jumps off of the rooftop of St Bart's while John, injured by a collision with a cyclist, stumbles towards his friend's body uttering murmurs of his complete disbelief, not realizing he survived the fall.

John, at first, is very angry with Sherlock after faking his death for two years but forgives him and goes back to solving crimes with him.  He asks Sherlock to be his best man at his wedding. Sherlock states that he will do anything to protect John, Mary and their baby. Their friendship is stronger than ever now, with Sherlock becoming slightly more human. When he discerns that Mary is pregnant at the wedding reception, Sherlock states categorically that she and John will be the best parents in the world, as they've already had so much practice with him.

### Jim Moriarty

Moriarty proved to be Sherlock’s greatest adversary. Both men push each other to their limits, both were geniuses in their respective fields.

### Mrs Hudson

Mrs Hudson, Sherlock's landlady, takes care of many of his needs, like washing his clothes and making food, even though she seems to do so begrudgingly. Sherlock, in turn, is protective of her – beating a man half to death after deducing that he had struck Mrs Hudson and then throwing him out of a window, claiming the man was injured when he "fell out" (several times). When Moriarty says to Sherlock he will kill "everyone you care about", the fully enumerated list comprises three names, of which Mrs Hudson is one.

### Greg Lestrade

Sherlock's relationship with DI Greg Lestrade began as one of necessity, as Greg acknowledges that traditional police methods can not solve some crimes, and Sherlock needs someone to bring him in on cases.  Greg since appeared to have become someone that Sherlock would consider a friend, especially when it is revealed he is one of Moriarty's three targets designed to coerce Sherlock into "suicide". Greg can be noted as one of the few at Scotland Yard that does not completely believe, upon the evidence that Sherlock was the one committing crimes all along, that Sherlock was a fraud.  In *The Final Problem*, Sherlock finally has enough respect for Lestrade to get his first name right.

### Mycroft Holmes

Sherlock and Mycroft Holmes, his older brother, have a rocky relationship at best. However, Mycroft does remark to Sherlock that they have more in common than Sherlock likes to think. There are many examples of this, one being that both of them have the exceptional brainpower and can deduce things quickly. However, there are also many examples of them being opposites of each other, as Sherlock "prefer[s] to text" and does so very frequently, while Mycroft, as Sherlock says, only texts when he cannot speak, e.g. when he is at the dentist. Despite the unstable relationship, Sherlock and Mycroft are seen to pay attention and care about each other quite a bit, knowing about each other's personal lives, and with Mycroft asking Sherlock for favours. In return, Mycroft has his way of keeping tabs on Sherlock, having a high level of national security placed on him and John. The two are seen to spend some time with each other, Sherlock having 'acquired' one of Mycroft's security cards, and when Mycroft finds out that he uses it, he is more exasperated than angry, despite Sherlock breaching a national security protocol in Mycroft's name. Mycroft later allows Sherlock access to the military base that Sherlock stole his identity to breach. Nevertheless of their arguments, Sherlock shows that he does indeed love his brother and knows him quite well, as when Mycroft tries to manipulate Sherlock into shooting him instead of John, he is able to see through the act easily and refuses to do so, even willing to sacrifice his life to save both his brother and John.

To Sherlock's amusement and Mycroft's shock, their mother considers Sherlock to have always been the grown-up between the two of them.

### Molly Hooper

Molly Hooper is a pathologist at St Barts Hospital and often assists Sherlock in his "experiments". She is shown to have a huge crush on him and is awkward and stuttery around him. He does not respond to her feelings for him, although he does use them to his advantage by flirting with her to get something he wants. Sherlock originally did not seem to understand how much Molly cared for him.

However, their friendship became slightly stronger. During a Christmas party at Baker Street, Sherlock upsets Molly by embarrassing her in front of everyone after he deduces that she has 'love on her mind' and is seeing someone that night. When it turns out to be him, Molly snaps back at him, standing up to him for the first time. Then, another first, Sherlock apologizes to her all on his own, much to the shock of John, and kisses her on the cheek.

Molly seems jealous of Sherlock's "infatuation" with Irene, jumping to the conclusion that she is his girlfriend to which he questions "you think she is my girlfriend because I am x-raying her possessions?"

Molly's and Sherlock's relationship developed substantially from colleagues into a friendship. At one point, Molly points out how sad Sherlock looks when he thinks no one else can see. He states that she can see him to which she replies that she does not count. Sherlock later tells her that she does count and that she has always counted and that he has always trusted her. When she asks what he needs, he replies with 'you'.

Molly aided Sherlock in faking his death. To thank her, and also to temporarily replace John, Sherlock asks Molly to solve some cases with him. He also tells her that Moriarty made a mistake in believing that she did not matter to Sherlock when he admits to her that she was the one person who mattered the most.

Sherlock asks her out for dinner "chips", but she refuses because of her engagement. When Sherlock notices that Molly is engaged, he congratulates her, saying that she deserves to be happy. He later also states how he wants her to be herself, not John, showing that he values her friendship even if he is using her as a replacement.

Eventually, Sherlock compliments her without reason (without trying to get something) and even asks how Tom is. He also makes an effort not to say anything about the fact that Tom looks like him (hinting that Molly is not over him) showing how Sherlock has come to respect Molly and how he is starting to show regard for Molly's feelings.

Molly was furious at Sherlock for being back on drugs, but he responds with 'sorry your engagement's over' after he notices the lack of a ring. He also has her in his mind palace when he is dying; she is shown helping him and guiding him through it, trying to keep him alive. Although it was not Molly, it shows that Sherlock has respect for her and considers her to be someone who saves his life. Unlike Irene Adler, who appears as a distraction in his mind palace, Molly appears as a motivation. It is also revealed that her house is one of his bolt holes and that she had the spare room while he had her room.

While being tortured and put through a series of problems by Eurus Holmes, Sherlock is forced to get Molly to say "I love you" to him. Eventually Molly says it too, despite how cruel and upsetting she finds this. After this scene, Sherlock proceeds to break the coffin that was supposedly hers in a very agitated state, and screams one last time : *I love you*. At some point after this upsetting event she visits Sherlock and John at their flat, showing she got over it and she and Sherlock are still friends.

### Parents

Mrs Holmes, or "Mummy", has been mentioned at several points, most commonly as a threat or complaint from the eldest Holmes brother, Mycroft Holmes.

After Sherlock's return from the "dead", Mycroft's and Sherlock's mother and father show up at 221B, having known all along that Sherlock was alive. They appear to be very ordinary, unlike the two brothers; Sherlock tells Watson it's an embarrassment he has to deal with. It is later revealed that Sherlock's mother is a renowned mathematical genius who retired from academia to be a full-time mother.

Mummy maintains a powerful hold on both her sons, as is shown by her making Sherlock promise to stay in contact more often when both Holmes brothers are caught by their mother smoking outside of her home. When she confronts them, they hide the cigarettes behind their backs and deny they are doing anything. Sherlock even goes further, blaming Mycroft.

### Irene Adler

Irene Adler holds a certain fascination for Sherlock Holmes. She is shown to enjoy "the game" just as much as Sherlock, enjoying detective stories and understanding the intricacies of them similar to Sherlock. When he is first tasked to recover her phone by the monarchy, she beats him both metaphorically and literally with her riding crop, before escaping through the window, sparking a mutual fascination. When she gives him her phone as a 'Christmas present' Sherlock deduces she has been killed (it is later revealed she faked her death), and falls into a depression so deep both John and Mycroft are concerned he may begin using drugs again. However, upon learning she is alive, he recovers near immediately.

When Mycroft tells John of her capture, he states "What might we deduce about his [Sherlock's] heart?" (about how he would take the news of her death, thereby revealing that Mycroft thought that Sherlock might have cared for her, although it might have more likely been a fascination for the woman who's mind matched his own). When John goes to tell Sherlock that she went into the Witness Protection Program in America, to spare him the sorrow of learning of her death, Sherlock asks him for her phone (part of Mycroft's file on her). It is later revealed that Irene did not die in the Middle East. Sherlock infiltrated the prison to rescue her, risking his own life to save hers.

During a later case when Sherlock is deducing who the murderer is, and is in his mind palace, he sees Irene naked (as he saw her when they first met) stroking his cheek with her hand as she smiles at him. He then tells her 'Out of my head, I'm busy', suggesting she often appears in his thoughts and he would rather she turn up later.

In the episode "The Lying Detective" revealed that Irene continues to send SMS messages to Sherlock, and sometimes he texts to her back. John actively encourages this and seems to believe they suit one another romantically.

When asked by Eurus to 'play him' in "The Final Problem" Sherlock responds by playing the music he wrote while in mourning for Irene, known as 'Irene's Theme' or 'The Woman'. From this, Eurus deduces that Sherlock has had sex, suggesting that it is Irene Adler he has had sex with as she is the subject of the music he is playing.

### Eurus Holmes

Eurus is Sherlock's younger sister. As children, she loved him very much and wanted to play with him. Sherlock, however, he was more interested in playing pirates with Victor Trevor. This drove her over the edge, prompting Eurus to leave Victor to drown in a well; she even attempted to kill Sherlock by burning down their home. Soon after, the trauma of Victor's death and Eurus being taken away caused Sherlock to rewrite his memories, turning Victor into a dog and Eurus into a ghost story.

In 2017, Eurus made contact with him again as Faith Smith, while he was high on drugs. She also posed as John's therapist. After being convinced to scare Mycroft senseless, Sherlock learned Eurus was insane and capable of one day gaining control of the world through reprogramming people with a conversation. When he met Eurus in her cell, Sherlock learns she taught him how to play the violin and that she got out by reprogramming the governor. She forced him through sadistic games to emotionally torture him and those close to him. Eventually, Sherlock learned the song from their childhood was a cry for love; he gave Eurus the context she yearned for. To this day, Sherlock visits her, playing the violin together in the hopes of healing her psyche.

Takes her coffee black with two sugars. Has a master's degree in chemistry, enjoys dancing and is capable of waltzing and doing a jazz pirouette. Is a virgin, has a file on things her mother has to answer for. Engages in daily mental exercises that involve formulating scenarios on how she would murder her friends or colleagues. January 6th. Prefers snorting Waldmeister-Brause through her nose every morning, as she states that it gives her "the right kind of kick". Beneath all her cold logic, she possesses a genuine caring heart, and a desire to ensure that if someone has harmed another person, they will be caught. She does text back sometimes, but largely attempts not to. Does not consider herself a hero despite her heroic actions. Has been called a dragon slayer and a good man. Became much more humanized, appears amused by her own jokes instead of the past where she would just give deadpan one-liners.

Eurus Holmes is the third child and only daughter of Mr Holmes and Mrs Holmes, eight years younger than Mycroft and one year younger than Sherlock. She is referred to as the most intelligent one among the Holmes, classified as an era-defining genius. Mycroft first mentioned her as "the other one". She grew up alongside her two brothers in their family home.
One day, while playing with Sherlock, Mycroft and Redbeard, Eurus displays signs of loneliness and so she decides to kill Redbeard, who is later revealed not to be a dog, but Sherlock's best friend Victor Trevor. Eurus refuses to reveal the whereabouts of Victor and expresses her emotions about the situation through replying to Sherlock with her poem. It is seen in "The Final Problem" that Eurus had cast Victor into a nearby well where he was left to die. The assumed loss of Victor traumatizes Sherlock to the point that he 'rewrites' his memories to forget Eurus and Victor.

Eurus is sent to the maximum-security psychiatric prison, Sherrinford, after she burns down Musgrave, the Holmes' family mansion by her uncle Rudy Holmes. Through her gift of manipulation, she takes control of Sherrinford and can leave whenever she likes. She first meets John Watson while she is undercover, as Elizabeth, a lady on the bus, and this meeting later develops into a texting relationship. Soon after John ends the relationship, she assumes a new disguise as John's therapist, Ursa. Her first meeting with her brother Sherlock on screen is when she disguises herself as Culverton Smith's daughter, Faith Smith, seeking help. She reveals herself to John at the end of "The Lying Detective", when he returns to her seeking therapy, holding him at gun point. The audience is left hanging after Eurus pulls the trigger on John, which was revealed as a tranquilizer dart.

In "The Final Problem", Eurus, having already had the whole institution of Sherrinford at her mercy, plays "games" with Mycroft, Sherlock, and John Watson, making Sherlock choose who would have to shoot the governor, due to the fact that the governor's wife would be shot if they did otherwise. In the end, after no one had wanted to get their hands dirty, the governor shoots himself thinking that his wife's life would be spared. Showing more cruelty, she promptly shoots the governors's wife with no care whatsoever.

Afterwards, because of knowing all about Sherlock's personal life, she lies about having placed bombs in Molly Hooper's flat and then commands Sherlock to get her to make her say that she loved him, without telling her that there was anything urgent going on. While Sherlock's time starts to grow short, she plays recorded clips of Moriarty saying things such as tick-tick-tick-tick in hopes that it would stress Sherlock. It is also revealed that the whole ordeal was planned in five minutes conversation with Jim Moriarty. The next challenge passes, with Sherlock trying to choose which of three men to die, all the while having to save a girl stuck on a crashing plane. After being tranquilized and sent to Musgrave, Sherlock has to save the girl on the plane and a slowly drowning John Watson.

He decodes the cleverly planned gravestones and seeks Eurus in her room, where she is having a delusion, identical to the situation of the girl on the plane, being revealed to be the girl on the plane. After being comforted by Sherlock and saving Watson, she is sent back to Sherrinford, where she doesn't seem to make any conversation besides playing duets with Sherlock. By the end of episode, she seems to have become a different person, due to seemingly being able to feel emotion. She shows that all it needed was Sherlock's compassion, and that the experiments were to see things about emotional context.

## Personality

Eurus has an high intelligence quotient and is a master of manipulation. As a young child, she lacked emotion and seemingly the ability to distinguish her own pain, cutting open her arm because she wanted to see how her muscles worked. As an adult, she has slipped between being calm to screaming and, when finally seen, to being a helpless child alone on a malfunctioning air-plane. Eurus lacks typical normal human feeling, but she watches and reads the emotional reactions and emotional states of others, manipulating them to her favour in order to better understand an individual, or, for Eurus to feel something about what she's doing. A part of Eurus, however, is aware of the wrongdoing of her actions but, like the child helpless on the malfunctioning plane that she experiences herself to be, Eurus has no idea how to behave differently than how she already is, much less succeed or even progress in that area.

Regarding her family, Eurus has a singular preference for Sherlock, declaring him as her favorite family member. Making Sherlock scream, which she initially understood as laughter, was the one thing that made her most happy. When Sherlock played pirates with his best friend 'Redbeard', who was revealed to be Victor Trevor, and seemingly excluded Eurus, Eurus entrapped and murdered Victor out of want for Sherlock to play with her. She later produced drawings of Sherlock being dead and acted upon them by her attempt to burn down Musgrave Hall. When reunited with Sherlock as adults, she continued to play with him through her disguise and impersonation of Faith Smith, and Sherlock was the main subject of her games at Sherrinford and at Musgrave Hall, manipulating Sherlock's emotions regarding his loved ones and his 'Redbeard' trauma for her engagement. Despite her tormenting Sherlock, however, as decrypted in her childhood song 'The Musgrave Ritual', Eurus throughout her entire life held Sherlock as the only person who can reach her in her extreme feelings of isolation and psychosis, which he indeed finally solved decades later and managed to reach out to Eurus to reveal the location of the well she trapped Victor's remains and John in. While Eurus has shown little regard for human life, shown throughout the many people who died during her trials, she refused to let Sherlock die, shown when she tranquilized him to prevent him killing himself instead of John or Mycroft, though this was also most likely done to prevent her games being stopped.

Because of her unique mind, Eurus' feelings of extreme isolation and psychosis are so profound that she subjectively experiences herself alone on a plane full of sleeping people and has no idea how to land. After the culmination of her game with Sherlock at their childhood home of Musgrave Manor, Eurus became uncommunicative and was described by Mycroft as having "passed beyond our view". However, she still seems reachable, reacting to Sherlock's playing the violin and being able to effortlessly copy his played melody. After repeated sessions over the years covering numerous cases and Rosamund's growth into a toddler, she performed with Sherlock in a violin recital that Sherlock organised for their parents and Mycroft, perhaps reflecting steps towards some measure of recovery.

On Mycroft, Eurus held her eldest brother with seemingly no regard beyond being one of the two most important attachments to Sherlock, the other being John Watson. Like Mycroft was to Sherlock as the smarter sibling, Eurus felt Mycroft to be 'quite clever' and could understand things if Eurus herself 'went a bit slow for him'. Though Mycroft holds the responsibility of institutionalizing her at Sherrinford since being a child, Eurus does not seem to hold any profound ill-feelings towards Mycroft about that. Regarding her parents, she has not demonstrated, and doesn't seem to hold any feeling towards them at all.

## Abilities

* **Genius-Level Intellect**: Of all the Holmes siblings, Eurus was the most clever. She is the most intelligent human on Earth. Compared to Mycroft who was professionally assessed as 'remarkable', Eurus was 'incandescent'. "An era-defining genius beyond Sir Isaac Newton." Mycroft explained to John and Sherlock in 'The Final Problem'. According to Mycroft, Eurus seemed to be able to perceive truth beyond both the normal scope and even his own, such as how Eurus during their childhood together once remarked on how funny her older brother looked as an adult. (This startled the present day Mycroft, who was seeing this in his own Mind Palace) As a young child, she taught Sherlock the violin, successfully orchestrated the entrapment and drowning of Victor Trevor that went unsolved for decades, utilized ciphers, and was able to manipulate people to the point of enslavement since the age of 5. As an adult, this talent of hers had increased to the extent that, except geniuses like Mycroft, Sherlock, and Jim Moriarty, virtually anyone who interacts with her are 'reprogrammed' and thus compromised, as demonstrated in her former psychiatrist killing his family and himself and Eurus' secret takeover of Sherrinford. Her intellectual abilities are such that, after spending an hour on Twitter, Eurus precisely predicted the exact dates of three separate terrorist attacks on British mainland. Because of these faculties, the British Government and Mycroft tap her as a consultant on potential threats to Britain, risking the exchange of granting her 'treats' from which she may potentially and dangerously benefit from. However, for all of her genius, Eurus' 'cleverness' is undermined by her psychosis stemming from her perpetual feelings of extreme isolation due to her very exceptional but singular genius.
* **Master Therapist**: Unlike her brothers, who both are bad at interpersonal relationships, Eurus, despite her own dysfunctional feelings on account of her psychosis, has great understanding of human psychology, easily manipulating John with just a smile, and successfully acting as a therapist for many days before revealing her true identity. Eurus was especially focused on reading human interactions and fluently understood emotional reactions and the person's subsequent fluctuating emotional state, undoubtedly the root of her gift of manipulating anyone she talks to and her drive of subjecting Sherlock, Mycroft, and John to the emotional trials of her game.
* Very skilled in disguise and acting, extremely deductive. Master manipulator, able to plant suggestions in the minds of weaker willed people, hypnotist.
* **Master Violinist**: Eurus also demonstrates excellent aptitude in violin music, at least on par with, if not, superior to Sherlock's own. Even as a young child, she was already capable enough that she taught Sherlock how to play. As an adult, Eurus's skill and knowledge in violin music had grown greatly, with her practicing regularly with the violin she had Mycroft buy for her as one of the treats that she gained from helping the government. Despite how damaged her mind was after their game, she was able to effortlessly play what Sherlock played on his violin after only listening to it once by ear with equal beauty. She instantly recognized Sherlock's playing Bach's Sonata No. 1 in G minor from just the first chord and remarked that he didn't understand it. When Sherlock played something of himself, Eurus was able to quickly perceive Sherlock's relation to a woman behind his played melody. Even Sherlock himself complimented Eurus's violin playing as being beautiful, however, to Eurus's unique mind, she only understands her playing of the music not in terms of beauty but instead in terms of whether it's right or not.

Analytical, highly intelligent, fiercely cunning, British Secret Service, arrogant, improper, refused to shake hands, taps pedestrians with her cane to get out of her way. Very loyal to the crown, greatly cares about her younger brother, air of youth about her, still refers to people by their childhood nicknames, displays strong loyalty and trust, trusts her brother to a considerable degree, went out of her way to recruit people and save someone from drowning just because her brother told her to. Attended Cambridge University where she excelled academically and gained some fame for her skill at boxing, called the "Boxing Champion of Cambridge'', after graduation she was asked to teach at the school and accepted a professorship in the department of mathematics and published several popular works. Appears to be a respectable mathematics professor but is a criminal mastermind who oversees a massive network of crime and deception.

Prior to this event, Moriarty began planning and executing a scheme to draw Europe into a continent-wide war. In 1889, he orchestrated the death of Rudolf, Crown Prince of Austria in an apparent murder-suicide, and around the same time orchestrated a bombing in Vienna. This was followed in 1891 by a bombing in the city of Strasbourg, which was blamed on various nationalists or anarchists. These actions were intended to increase tensions on the continent, primarily between France and the German Empire. At the same time, through a combination of blackmail and murder he managed to acquire ownership of a number of different companies connected to wartime industry, such as steel and cotton.

After meeting with Simza Heron, whose brother René was another of Moriarty's associates, he had another clue of Moriarty's movements. With Dr John Watson recently having married Mary Morstan, Holmes intended to continue his investigation alone. He met Moriarty at Cambridge, where he expressed his desire for the criminal to leave Watson and his wife alone as he was no longer part of his investigation. Moriarty, however, refused, saying that if Holmes wanted to fight him there would be collateral damage; to emphasize his point, he gave Holmes a blood-soaked handkerchief belonging to Adler, whom he reveals is dead, due to a poison that mimicked the symptoms of tuberculosis.

Meanwhile, Holmes confronted Moriarty on the terrace outside. They began with a chess match, which Holmes narrowly won, in the process of which Holmes revealed he stole Moriarty's notebook encoded with the details of his criminal empire and exposed the truth about him by sending it to London, where it was decoded by Mary Watson using a book in Moriarty's office and its contents passed along to Inspector Lestrade, who seized all of after Moriarty's assets and donated them to anti-war charities, financially crippling him. Clearly furious of having the wealth he tried so hard to get reduced to practically nothing, Moriarty, although still calm, seething with anger, promised that he will murder Watson and his wife in the most creatively excruciatingly painful and slow means in revenge for this. Moriarty and Holmes immediately calculated a violent altercation in their minds, with Moriarty furiously, but still methodically, attacking Holmes. Because of Holmes' injured shoulder, it is apparent that while Sherlock could still go up against Moriarty, his defeat was inevitable as Moriarty's fighting skills as a boxing champion of Cambridge would have outmatched Sherlock in his injured state. Cunningly, instead of going fist-to-fist with Moriarty, Holmes blinded, grappled and, in front of the newly arrived Watson, threw himself over the Reichenbach Falls, dragging Moriarty with him, who screamed in terror on the way down.

Always spoke sedately with a dry and cynical sense of humor and wide vocabulary, dressed mainly in black suits with tails, a red tie, and sometimes a top hat, gave the appearance of being laid-back and carefree, liked Switzerland because it's people respected privacy. narcissistic, complete lack of empathy, inclination toward moral insanity, laid-back and calm disposition masking a sinister, sadistic and psychopathic nature, very big admirer of the opera, had a taste for Schubert's works, brilliant tactician and deadly strategist, able to predict other people's actions with a single glance.

He was seen to be a psychopathic, misanthropic and unpredictable individual, who was extremely self-centered and with an outstanding mental agility and incredible level of cunning and intellect. He was also a nihilist, and almost ruthlessly utilized other people's lives in his intensely villainous schemes. As a result, Moriarty expressed no qualms about murdering people and loved ones, such as when he seamlessly murdered Irene Adler. When angered, he can even prove to be intensely sadistic, as he furiously promised Sherlock that for financially crippling him, he would kill Watson and his wife with the most creatively excruciating means. He was also highly arrogant, claiming to have the utmost of regard for Sherlock's talents, while still callously dismissing him as incompetent and irrelevant in comparison to himself. He also severely underestimated Watson, believing him incapable of substituting for Holmes in uncovering René Heron, only for Watson to do so anyway. Moriarty's arrogance ultimately led to his defeat.

## Abilities and Skills

* **Master Hand-to-Hand Combatant/Martial Artist:** Even though Moriarty relied more on his high intelligence, he was known to be nevertheless a highly talented and capable martial artist even while still young, with a particular talent and profiency in boxing to the point that his skills as a boxer was good enough to earn the title "Boxing Champion of Cambridge" while still a student. As an adult, Moriarty had clearly greatly refined his skills to the point that when they calculated brawling, he was able to easily keep up against the highly skilled Sherlock Holmes, although Holmes was not at peak of his skills as his shoulder was injured and he did not know Moriarty was a far more resilient and competent martial artist than he expected, and even gained the upper hand and eventually restrained, pummeled, defeated and threw Holmes off the Reichenbach Falls, forcing Holmes to first blind Moriarty before grappling and then throwing them both off the castle to the waterfalls. He was shown to be evasive and highly unpredictable. His style is very sophisticated, emphasizing in the use of his momentum to counter and after swaying his opponent's momentum by skillfully exploiting an opponent's weaknesses against them, then counterattacking with a frenzied but concentrated barrage of attacks. He mixed strong boxing punches with skillful and fast blocking moves but he can also effectively employ grapple moves, which he included in his fighting style to some degree.
	+ **Skilled Marksman:** He appeared to be proficient in using firearms as well, carrying a four shot pepperbox derringer on a mechanism concealed in his sleeve. It is likely that his interest in the weapons used in war made him learn how to use them so he can use them to defend himself.
* **Genius-level Intellect:** Moriarty was extremely intelligent and possess an outstanding level of mental agility as well as being a brilliant strategist and tactician, outsmarting even the strongest of opponents in a battle of wits and being able to predict other people's action with a single glance. Moriarty's intelligence was so great that he was even considered to be as intelligent as Holmes, with Holmes admitting his ingenuity after reading Moriarty's handwriting. Moriarty even came very close to outsmarting Holmes and although Holmes eventually proved to outsmart Moriarty when they pitted their intellects against each other, it must be noted that Moriarty had been able to effectively counter Holmes and Holmes was forced to resort to drastic measures to win.
	+ Could accurately predict combat scenarios.
	+ **Master Tactician/Strategist:** Moriarty was an excellent strategist, having effectively orchestrated a number of assassinations in order to start a war and managing to take over multiple industries through a wide variety of methods - legal and criminal - all for the purpose of engineering a world war for the sake of greater profit. Because he now took over a company which was produces state of the art war supplies of the Victorian Era, he only wanted to create the demand for it and nearly succeeded as well. Moriarty was also an avid player of chess, able to match and almost defeat Sherlock Holmes in their match, although he was eventually defeated.
	+ **Master Businessman**: Moriarty was also an excellent master of financial and economic matters, as displayed by his ability to skillfully handle and expand the efficiency of the war tools industries that he took over.
	+ Excellent Cryptographer, the writing in her notebook is encoded to the point that deciphering it needed the aid of a specialized cryptographic team. Fluent in French and German.
	+ **Polymath**: Much like Sherlock Holmes, Moriarty was excellent in a wide variety of academic fields. He was an ingeniously skillful and knowledgeable Mathematician, as he was distinguished as one of the best Professors of Mathematics in Cambridge University's history, and apparently had a particular affinity for Binomial theorem, as he wrote a treatise on it. He was also very accomplished and knowledgeable in the study of Astronomy, as evidenced by his ability to publish the renowned book The Dynamics Of An Asteroid.
	+ Prolific author, published famous and excellent books that are interesting and were deemed exemplary by the public. Very skillful actor, able to effectively maintain her polite façade.
	+ **Mental and Emotional Control**: Moriarty displayed excellent control over his mental and emotional conditions, as while clearly furious by Holmes having taken away his fortune, Moriarty was still able to cordially converse with him to the point of even igniting Holmes' cigarette for him. In his fight with Holmes, while he unleashed his fury for having been deprived of his fortune, Moriarty remained fully controlled and even seemed to use his anger to make him more formidable rather than hampering him.
* **Network**: Moriarty had a dense network of criminal followers that he used to execute his criminal activities while remaining in the shadows. He once had an immense fortune through all his endeavors, but this was lost when Scotland Yard confiscated his wealth.

### Later life

By the time Holmes re-encounters Irene, she has made a name for herself with a number of thefts and at least one instance of blackmail. Holmes has been tracking her for some time: despite being unable to prove anything, he recognised her hand various scandals and affairs, which he kept in a special file. These included the theft of a Velázquez portrait from the king of Spain, naval documents that led to the resignation of the prime minister of Bulgaria, and a large diamond from an Indian maharaja. She was also allegedly behind the breakup of a marriage between a Habsburg prince and a Romanov princess.

Adler is also comfortable at appearing naked in front of Holmes. When he visited her in her hotel room, she was covered only by a towel, which she dropped in front of him, exposing her entire body, before she went behind a screen to get dressed.

After Blackwood's defeat, Holmes continued to track Moriarty's actions across Europe. Shortly after the bombing of Strasbourg, Holmes again found himself tailing Irene. In disguise as a Chinese opium addict, he trailed her through a busy market with a package from Moriarty to an unknown recipient. Holmes took the package from Irene without her noticing, replacing it with a loaf of bread, before beginning to question her. They exchanged some playful banter, including planning a dinner date that night at the Savoy, and Holmes warned Irene that she was in fact being followed by three suspicious men. To escape them, they make an immediate detour into a narrow alley. There they found their way blocked by a fourth man, and Irene revealed to Holmes that in fact the three men following her escorts, not assailants. She retrieved the package from Holmes, and, instructing her escorts not to aim for the face because of their dinner date, left Holmes by himself to fight them.

Irene, meanwhile, continued to Cromwell & Griff, an auction house, where she was to meet with Dr Karl Hoffmanstahl to deliver his payment from Moriarty. In return, Hoffmanstahl gave Irene a letter for Moriarty from René Heron to his sister Sim, which René believed had been delivered. Holmes is able to track down Hoffmanstahl's 'payment'- which was in reality a bomb- and disarm it, but Hoffmanstahl is assassinated by other means moments later, while Irene is apparently poisoned by Moriarty in a later meeting as he has concluded that her affection for Holmes has clouded her judgement and effectiveness as an agent.

## Personality

Watson is shown to be loyal, sarcastic, humble, polite, smart, stubborn and selfless. He is also extremely intelligent and able to match deductions with Sherlock with ease. He can be very hot tempered in the face of pressure or annoyance, and greatly cares about his best friend Sherlock Holmes and loved ones. He is very brave and willing to sacrifice himself for any just cause. He is an immensely talented healer and is able to repair the wounds he personally suffered in the attack at the slaughterhouse when Blackwood attempts to blow him, Sherlock and Irene Adler up.

## Abilities

* **Genius-Level Intellect**: Watson has genius-level intelligence, proven by not only his medical knowledge and skill, but also Watson's ability to easily deduce things just nearly as quickly as Sherlock Holmes can(on one occasion even quicker), though he isn't nearly as prolific with this skill as the latter and in the end it is still clear that Holmes is the smarter of the two. Nevertheless, Holmes himself has openly praised Watson deductive abilities and holds him in the very highest of regard.
* **Master Combatant**: Watson is a highly skilled combatant and is an exceptionally talented boxer, and is able to hold his own against several opponents simultaneously.
* **Expert Marksman**: He is a crack shot, heralding from his long years in Afghanistan.
* **Expert Swordsman**: He is a capable swordsman and keeps a high-tensile steel blade hidden in his cane wherever he goes.

## Trivia

* As a veteran of the Second Afghan War, at his stag party and wedding Watson wears both the Afghanistan Medal and the Kandahar Star.
* He hates when Sherlock experiments on his dog.
* He is much more polite and friendly towards people, in contrast to Holmes' antisocial behaviour.

Sherlock is eccentric, brave, and extremely intelligent. He has his own degree of personal cunning and a slightly suave demeanor. He is focused, crafty and rather altruistic, heroic and strong-minded and good hearted. He is also enigmatic and seemed to be clever enough to surpass James Moriarty, who was himself mentally inordinately agile. He cares deeply about John Watson, enough to challenge Moriarty about it. Sherlock lacks tact entirely which is why he is disliked by so many people, he often doesn’t notice when his deductions of people do offend them, like when he offended Mary about her ex fiancé.

## Abilities

* **Genius-Level Intellect**: Holmes's abilities lay mainly in his skills of deduction and his intellect. An exceptionally intelligent individual with a great amount of enigma, Sherlock Holmes is quite possibly the most intelligent man alive and proved to be clever enough to ultimately surpass James Moriaty, managing to best him in their chess contest and outfox and take down the mentally ordinately agile professor of Cambridge. He is incredibly observant, noticing the tiniest details, that most would not pay attention to.
	+ **Prediction**: Holmes' intelligence allows him to plan attacks and deduce (often correctly) exactly how a scuffle will play out. He can even predict exactly how events took place, though sometimes his adversaries can jumble up the clues to misdirect him. This rarely works on him.
* **Master Tactician**: His advanced intellect allows him to perform various acts and set up traps in places, based on his accurate predictions. This involves jamming up machine guns and setting off trick bombs. He even carefully timed the throw and rescue of Lady Watson. Holmes's strategical aptitude can make him extremely unpredictable, as he displayed the willingness to go at great costs to carry out any complex and dangerous plan he had thought upon and he even seemed to always think many steps ahead and form backup plans in case his original plan failed, as evidenced when he simply and calmly blinded Moriaty after realizing a fist fight would be futile, catching him completely off guard.
* **Expert Scientist**: *To be added*
* **Expert Deceiver**: Holmes displayed considerable skill as a con artist, even able to steal the highly perceptive Moriaty's notebook from him without Moriaty even suspecting it and later managing to exploit being pinned down by Moriaty to put in another notebook so as to continue the deception.
* **Expert Violinist**: Holmes can play the violin.
* **Master Martial Artist**: He is also shown to be very proficient in many known martial arts and boxing and had an aggressive, if not slippery, fighting style. His style also involves psychological warfare. He is a very adept boxer and was able to hold his own, overwhelm and defeat opponents much larger than himself, or multiple opponents inside and outside the ring. However Holmes is not above cheating, and will often use the environment, and other distractions in order to gain the upper hand when outnumbered, or outsized.
* **Skilled Marksman**: Though not as skilled as Watson, he is also a proficient marksman. However, he has a habit of unwisely unloading all of his bullets into a single target.
* **Staff Proficiency**: *To be added*
* **Expert Spy**: Holmes also liked donning various disguises in order to spy on or obtain specific information from different suspects. He demonstrated this skill by secretly following Irene Adler through the back streets of London from his home as a homeless beggar to see who she was working for and therefore discovering that her employer was Professor Moriarty. He demonstrated this a second time when he visited his friend and colleague John Watson as a Doctor in a Hospital after John was injured from a brief confrontation with Lord Blackwood.

## Behind the Scenes

Downey was visiting Joel Silver's offices with his wife, producer Susan Downey, when he learned about the project. Ritchie initially felt Downey was too old for the role because he wanted the film to show a younger Holmes on a learning curve like *Batman Begins*. Ritchie decided to take a chance on casting him in the role, and Downey told the BBC that "I think me and Guy are well-suited to working together. The more I look into the books, the more fantastic it becomes. Holmes is such a weirdo". Downey also revealed what his wife had to say: "that when you read the description of the guy – quirky and kind of nuts – it could be a description of me". Downey intended to focus more on Holmes' patriotic side and his bohemianism, and felt that his work on Chaplin has prepared him for an English accent. Ritchie feels his accent is "flawless". Both Downey and Ritchie are martial arts enthusiasts, and have been inspired by the Baritsu mentioned in the 1901 story The Adventure of the Empty House. Downey lost weight for the part, because during a chat he had with Chris Martin, Martin recommended that Holmes look "gaunt" and "skinny".*[citation needed]*

At Brompton, Holmes meets John Watson, another student having recently joined the school, whom he quickly befriends. Here Holmes has a mentor and friend, Rupert T. Waxflatter, a retired schoolmaster and inventor. Waxflatter's niece Elizabeth is also Holmes' close friend and love interest and Holmes competes for her affections with fellow student Dudley, though she shows a marked preference for Holmes.

Even at this age Holmes possess his renowned skills of deduction and observation, he possess a great love of science and drive to solve crimes. He also enjoys fencing and is friends with another school master of his, Professor Rathe, who is also his fencing Coach. He had not yet mastered the Violin, a fact which annoyed him.

He secretly stays in Waxflatters old laboratory and examines the case. He and Watson, discovers that the Rame Tep, a fanatical Egyptian cult, renowned for there sadistic rituals and there use of poisoned blow darts that cause nightmare like hallucinations are behind the murders of Waxflatter and several other distinguished gentleman, as well as the kidnapping of several young girls, who they mummified and then sacrificed to the god of the dead. He, Watson and Elizabeth manage to track down the Rame Tep's secret temple, and he sees them perform one of there sacrifices. Unable to take watch them kill her, in a rash moment Holmes reveals himself. Chased by the fanatical members, Holmes is hit by one of there blow darts, as are his friends. Still pursued by one member they run into a graveyard, there he is separated from Elizabeth. Finding Elizabeth he is unable to shake her from her nightmare and is forced to restrain her to stop her hurting herself. However Watson is also affected, trying to find him Holmes faces a nightmare hallucination of his father angry at him for uncovering his secrets and thus hurting his mother (its implied his father was having an affair and Holmes figured it out and revealed it) managing to break out of the Hallucination, he is attacked by member of the Rame Tep avoiding him he tries to fight back with a pole, however he is disarmed, but is saved by a caretaker. Who has them arrested, Lestrade convinces him to drop the charges, Holmes tries to convince him to start an investigation, but Lestrade doesn't believe Holmes. Holmes leaves him some of the darts they stole, hoping they might convince him.

Back at the Lab, he makes a breakthrough, discovering the final living member of the group Chester Cragwitch. However he is then found by Rathe, he warns Holmes that the board would have him arrested, but agrees not to tell them, however he insists that must leave and expels Watson. However not willing to give up, Holmes and Watson break out and go visit the last member of the gentleman alive. Cragwitch reveals the story that many years earlier all of them were working together to build a great hotel in Egypt, however they came across the Tomb of five Egyptian princesses, they had them excavated, this angered the natives. Fearing for there lives, the gentleman called in the British Army, as Egypt was a British Colony at the time, the soldiers killed many of the natives and burned the village to the ground. However one Anglo-Egyptian native boy named Eh Tar and his sister were staying with their Grandfather in England at the time. He swore vengeance on the men and promised to replace the five Egyptian Princesses. Already poisoned, Cragwitch tries to kill Holmes, believing him to be Eh Tar, however he is saved by Lestrade, who the darts finally managed to convince to investigate.

However returning to the Academy Holmes suddenly has an epiphany and realises that Professor Rathe is Eh Tar. Running back he finds himself to late, as Rathe escapes on a carriage having kidnapped Elizabeth planning to make her the fifth and final Princess. Faced with no other way of catching up in time, he and Watson take Waxflatters experimental flying machine and chase them to the Rame Tempe's Temple. Breaking in, Holmes is horrified that he can't think of an single idea what to do. But Watson manages to motivate him and convince him to calm down, formulating a plan. They stage a distraction which manages to bring the temple down and cause it to catch fire, saving Elizabeth. Holmes seeing Eh Tar's sister Mrs Dribb (who is also his best assassin) going for his friends. Holmes jumps from the rafters and takes her on. The two fight over the blow pipe she wields, getting the upper hand she tries to shoot him with the blow dart. But Holmes manages to blow back into the pipe, forcing the dart back into her own mouth. Pushing her off, she is overcome with her own poison, in the chaos her robes catch fire and she burns to death. Confronted by some of the last surviving members Holmes takes them on first with a fallen beam and then a sword he found in the temple, but is knocked out cold by one of the members trying a last assault on him and trapped in the fire.

Watson manages to formulate a plan, and saves both him and Elizabeth. Reunited with his friends, they begin to leave only to be confronted by Rathe, armed with a revolver he tries to shoot Holmes, but Elizabeth gives her life to save him and takes the bullet. Enraged, Holmes attacks Rathe with a sword he took from the Temple. Rathe takes his own blade, that he concealed in his cane. The two duel, Eh Tar tries to exploit Holmes anger, but Holmes manages to turn it back on him, pointing out how all his goals and plans have failed, he had lost everything and mocked him as a failure. Enraged the fight descended to hand-to-hand, before finally climaxing with the two trying to bludgeon each other to death with oars on the frozen River Thames. Eh Tar lost control of his anger and tried to deliver a killing blow, when his sudden actions caused the already cracking Ice to shatter pulling him into the deep water.

Running to the dying Elizabeth, Holmes promises her he would meet her again some day, in another world a better world, Elizabeth promised to wait for him and wished him a final goodbye before dying, this Watson describes being the second of only two occasions he saw ever Holmes cry (the first being the death of his Mentor, Waxflatter). After this, Holmes decides to leave Brompton Academy, deeming to many bad memories. Now deciding he will live his life alone. As he leaves explains the further details of the mystery to Watson. He also takes Rathe's Inverness Cape as a trophy of his victory, and his mentors Deerstalker Cap, which Elizabeth had earlier given him, to remember her. Saying goodbye to Watson, Watson gives him the pipe he brought while searching for clues about the Rama Tempe, as a present. As he leaves, Watson reminisces, how then he never thanked Holmes for making him a man, and that he knew then that the two of them were destined to meet again.

We are shown how Holmes became so cold and calculating later in life and why he stayed alone for the rest of his life. Holmes is very emotional in the film, he is ruled by emotion and falls in love with the love of his life. As a result of what happens in the films he becomes the person he was later on.

**Sir Guy of Gisborne**, played by Richard Armitage, is a dark, brooding man always clad in black leather. He is the third main character in the first two series after Robin and Marian, and the second main character in the third series after Robin only. Guy is the Sheriff of Nottingham's second-in-command, and manages the Locksley estate in Robin's absence. He is reluctant to relinquish control over it and takes a dark satisfaction in being named its permanent lord after Robin is outlawed. His eagerness for land of his own comes from bitterness over having no actual Gisborne estate, and he contemplates renaming Locksley to Gisborne.

In the beginning of the series, Guy of Gisborne was portrayed as pitiless, cold, cruel, arrogant, extremely malicious, sarcastic, bitter and sadistic. He unquestioningly obeyed the orders of Vaisey and had no qualms about resorting to torture or murder if he felt a situation demanded it. He possessed a great hatred of Robin Hood and tried to kill him on numerous occasions.

His rivalry with Robin over the affections of Lady Marian also escalated throughout the series, though he was never certain Marian had genuine feelings for Robin until the final episode of season two. He confessed to Marian that he was only working for the Sheriff for position, and even betrayed the sheriff by attempting to murder him when Prince John asked him to and nearly drowned Robin Hood and his sister Isabella in order to take Vaisey's place as the new sheriff. He was also shown to have a terrifying temper, and raised his voice very little but when he did, he terrified any who listened, even the Sheriff.

The reasons for his bitterness are revealed in series 3 to stem from incredibly severe childhood trauma, in that his father was a leper and that his mother agreed to marry Robin Hood's father. In his childhood, Guy was sly, extremely sarcastic and emotional. He is seen to have immense difficulty dealing with young Robin Hood's arrogance and has difficulty in maintaining respect from others despite his French heritage. He was extremely proud and valued his position with surprising importance.

highly intelligent and extremely cunning, an iron-fisted, cruel and heartless individual but nobody could even begin to understand his inner potential. He was sadistic

Guy does not appear to be completely heartless, as he was in love with Marian and made genuine sacrifices—even risking his life at least once—on her behalf. Though he killed her in a heat of passion in the season two finale, Guy seemed genuinely horrified and devastated at this act, displaying an enormous degree of regret, and his guilt helped pull out his purer side in later episodes. It was also demonstrated that Gisborne was strongly opposed to the idea of killing children, and unlike Sheriff Vaisey, only murdered when necessary, and not out of personal pleasure. He became softer and less ruthless as the last season progressed, actually bringing himself to forgive Robin Hood and join his band of outlaws.

He was a master combatant and able to hold his own against Robin Hood on countless occasions. He was even shown to be outstandingly capable at hand-to-hand combat, a talented fist-fighter and unarmed combatant. He appears to be a cunning, unpredictable with incredible reflexes as a swordsman. Trained for war as both a soldier and an assassin, Guy displays the characteristics of a man who makes no mistakes.

Highly skilled assassin, master of all forms of combat, frequently used as an attack dog. Incredibly talented swordsman, extremely aggressive fighting style which utilized stealth, force, cunning, and psychological warfare.

He also showed some skill with a bow, and was able to outshoot even Robin Hood on one occasion.

and was one of the Sheriff's best lieutenants. He showed brutality, tenacity and cruelty towards some of his allies and seemed to avoid having any friends, with the exception of Marion.

Dagger, sword, poison. vulnerable, cynical, sardonic, manipulative, vengeful, mentally unstable. Extremely skilled leader, capable of knife-throwing, thinks if she has friends she is giving her enemies something to threaten her with.

All of the men in her life have successively betrayed her in some way or another, and she has developed a strong sense of paranoia and self-reliance as a result. She has difficulty coming to terms with the fact that her brother believes he did the right thing by marrying her to Thornton, and believes that she is being generous in holding out several years for an apology.  When that apology is not forthcoming, she gives up, and leaves Guy to be outlawed.

Although her romance with Robin Hood ends on a sour note, their relationship doesn't seriously deteriorate until the moment when he chastises her for killing her husband in self-defense. Her mental instability is clear when she addresses her half-brother Archer, declaring sincerely that she would commit murder in order to preserve her "holy mother's memory", indicating that she believes Ghislaine never had an affair and Archer is not her half-brother. After aiding in the death of her brother, Guy, she pauses for a moment to gaze at his corpse in reflection, but is chided by the sheriff for being sentimental, and hurries off.

She was, like her brother, bitter, cruel, arrogant and Machiavellian. She was quite intelligent but was outsmarted by Robin Hood's charisma. She showed herself to be cold, virtually heartless and sly, with no degree of mercy towards her enemies.

Aside from the vengeful sadism of Guy of Gisborne, the childish arrogance of Prince John and the intense, intelligent evil of the Sheriff, Isabella's evil is understood more on the terms of sociopathy. Like many sociopaths, she has no remorse and is extremely arrogant towards others. She shows extreme pride in her supposed heritage and incredibly dismissive of her mother's relationship with a leper. She is very hot tempered and elitist.

## Abilities

Isabella is a highly skillful swordswoman. She is able to hold her own against far more experienced warriors and also able to fight with an unlit torch as well as a sword, showing that she was confident enough in her abilities to do so. She is also able to hold her own spectacularly against several opponents at once and, flanked by the Sheriff, was able to kill Guy of Gisborne. She was also incredibly proficient with a dagger and a sword, but the only shows this once.

Robin continued to work for the peasants of Nottinghamshire, although he was putting his life in danger almost every time he did. He thought of himself as representing King Richard when villagers thought hi he was the last glimmer of hope in England. Robin helped the poor when he was being framed for assassinating, feeding Clun and saving Germany from Greek Fire. He also saved the villages from a massive tax rise, which would happen after the Abbess, Cedric and Flaxton steal most of Vaisey's money. Instead of handing the money back, Hood gave it to villages that need it, to prepare them from the hike. Also, when Lucky George came to town, Robin had to find out where the money Lucky George was taking was going. That managed to sort itself out, but he still needed to save Allan's brother Tom but was too late. He then worked for a day over personal issues. It was the 8th September, Richard I's birthday. Not only did Guy of Gisborne ask Marian to Marry him, Robin had a flashback of fighting in Acre, when the King's tent was under attack. He saw himself get stabbed, and remembered the insignia of the Saracen Assassins assigned to kill King Richard. The Saracen who got so close to killing Richard had the sign tattooed on his right arm, that Robin cut. Later that day, after raiding the celebration of the King's birthday in Locksley Manor, Robin saw the cut Tattoo, on the arm of Gisborne. Gisborne went to the Holy Land to Kill the King. It all added up. Gisborne had said to him upon his arrival at Locksley Manor that he'd seen him fight, and he recognized the eyes. When Djaq came in danger though, Robin handed over Guy, for safe return of Djaq. When the transition was made, The Sheriff, with Djaq's special acidic formula, burnt off Gisborne's tattoo, and asked him to think twice about painting his arm like a girl. Back to helping the poor, and the Sheriff has acquired a new 'Black Powder.' When the Sheriff gets it though, the Provider, Lambert has three conditions, one of which being; it should never be used as a weapon. When the Sheriff disagrees, Lambert refuses to provide the Black Powder. He is tortured until the Sheriff finds the location of the Formula book, which he gave to Robin Hood's Gang. When the gang throw the formula on the fire, Djaq, takes it out and keeps it, where she used it again on Robin's birthday the year later, to frighten the Mercenaries surrounding the Barn in Nettlestone Village. Then, when a man, nicknamed Harold by Much, burnt down the Christian Church in Locksley, and then attacked Djaq the Saracen, Much imprisoned him. Harold explained how when he saw a boy fishing, he looked in the river and sees bodies, and how the Saracens muddled his mind and to some extent control his actions. Much relates to him as they were both Crusaders, Much fighting in Acre and Harold in Tripoli. By Much listening to him and with the help of Scientist Prince Malik, a visitor to Nottingham and nephew of Saladin, Harold is partially cured of the condition and returns to Jerusalem to fight alongside the King. Robin also helps Little John find his son, Little Little John, and his wife Alice Little, and comforts him when they move away from Nottinghamshire with Alice's new man, Luke Cooper.

## Allies

Marian told Sir Guy she would marry him once the King returns. News reaches Nottingham that the King is returning. Robin's immediate reaction is to try and stop the wedding, but is the real king coming? Vaisey Of Nottingham is scheming, little does anyone else know, the King isn't coming, but an impostor, is. That way the Sheriff can discover the rats trying to turf him out and that are disloyal, and Gisborne can Marry Marian. Gisborne shows Marian the gold he is giving her once they are married. However Marian in disguise as the Night-watchman, decides to steal the gold and give it to the poor. Robin is there too, in Locksley Manor, and is protecting and detected Night-watchman, the gang hold the guards and Gisborne at gunpoint and he allows the Nightwatchman to make her escape, sort of. With a quick jab, Guy stabbed Marian, unaware that it is her disguised as the Night Watchman, she appears to die, despite Robin and Djaq's efforts to save her. Robin, utterly devastated, breaks down over her body and admits that he loves her. After a viscous battle, which the gang win near The Caverne, one of the gangs many hideouts where Allan and Will admit considering leaving the gang, She survives, her 'death' attributed to the shutting down of her body following the stab wound, and hemlock, applied by the treacherous physician Pitts, shot upon order by Gisborne's Archers. Marian decides to go ahead with the wedding to Guy, and Robin, furious and heart-broken, abandons his men. He viciously rebuffs Much's attempts to comfort him and packs up to leave Nottingham. He stops in his tracks when he hears Much interrupting Marian's wedding and reaches the ceremony in time to see Marian leave Guy at the altar. He gives her a ride to the castle after Gisborne reveals his true colors. At the Castle, Marian gets off the horse and they go in different directions in a hope to save her father, but Robin calls her back and they give each other a kissy kissy kiss kiss. Robin gets his fighting spirit back, saving Marian's father Edward from being killed by the Sheriff, like Walter Of Merton was, and redeeming himself to Much by preventing the Sheriff from slitting his throat.

she is England's only chance to be free; that he is the sole person giving the people hope.

After an encounter with Gisborne in the woods, both men are told a tale by a mysterious figure who reveals unknown and unclear aspects of their pasts. The figure reveals to Robin and Gisborne that Robin's father, Malcolm, and Gisborne's mother, Ghislaine, followed through with an affair that secretly produced a child; Robin and Gisborne's half-brother, Archer. The figure is revealed to be Malcolm himself, thought dead in a fire in Locksley many years ago and now living in a leper colony. Robin is furious with his father for leaving him all alone in the world, but eventually forgives his father out of love and being told that Malcolm is close to death. Malcolm pleads with Robin and Gisborne to travel to York to rescue Archer, who is set to be hanged. After explaining to the outlaws that Gisborne is now one of the men, Robin and Gisborne finally set aside their differences and head to York together.

after a life of poverty, is only interested in finding herself money and title.

## Personality and traits

Robin was an exceptionally selfless person who always put other people's needs before his own, willing to walk straight into enemy territory if it meant saving other people. He was clever, heroic and undaunted by authority, always ready to stand up to people of higher status if necessary. Robin also possessed a rather dry sense of humour. However—due to his talent for making frequent escapes from perilous situations—he was often arrogant and sometimes too sure of himself. He possessed a strong sense of idealism, but when this image was shattered (such as when Marian nearly married Gisborne, or after her death) he could become neurotically unstable and reckless.

Robin was very loyal to his friends, King Richard, and—most of all—Marian. He remained loyal to King Richard even after Richard tried to have them executed in the Season Two finale, because he knew that Sheriff Vaisey had "spun him a story" and that it wasn't the king's fault. He could show some rather dark traits when faced with treachery, as proven in "Tattoo? What Tattoo?" (where he was even willing to use torture on Sir Guy after discovering he had attempted to assassinate King Richard).

## Abilities

Robin was prodigiously skilled with a bow, and when using the weapon, he virtually never missed his target. (In some of the traditional Robin Hood legends the sheriff used this as a way to entrap him, holding contests which Robin could not pass up, and which he always won with amazing feats of skill, thus proving his identity).

He was also an extremely skillful swordsman, serving as one of King Richard's private guard during the war. He fought with a curved sword and was shown to be a highly skilled warrior, able to fight several opponents simultaneously. His fighting style was based on cunning, stealth and unerring speed. He was also an adept unarmed combatant.

## Personality

"*Underneath this harsh surface, there's just more harsh surface.*"
The Sheriff of Nottingham had the personality of a complete megalomaniac. He was cold, murderous, intelligent, ruthless, cowardly, cunning, narcissistic and a misanthrope. Vaisey was the manifestation of evil and tyranny in the eyes of the people of Nottingham. He was cruel and sadistic, taking pleasure in the pain and misery of others, as shown when he cut out the tongues of the people of Locksley. Not pleasant company, he had an insensitive and cynical attitude, and was prone to explosive rages when something (often Hood) obstructed his plans. He was greedy and selfish, taxing the people unfairly and only using the position as Sheriff as one step in his plan to gain ultimate power. He worked only for himself, and probably only helped Prince John for his own selfish desires. Vaisey was desperate for power and totally inhumane, as shown when he told Gisborne that "humanity is a weakness." He despised peasants, and hated being touched by them, suggesting that he had some sort of grudge against the poor.

He also appeared not to believe in God or care about God as he acted this way when meeting a woman he believed to be a nun. The only time he showed some care for God was when he was pretending to be pious to turn everyone against Hood. Vaisey only had 30 percent good in him he showed caring for birds as shown in the first episode when Robin gets him angry he accidently squishes his bird and is shocked and scared and got mad when Gisborne scared another one of his birds. He also cared for his sister a lot when she was killed he hated Robin even more then he did before. Vaisey may have been a tyrant but he was usually a man of his word especially to his right hand man guy. As shown when he would allow Guy to marry Marian if it made him happy. And when Marian told him about Guy being captured Vaisey would trade Djaq to get him back. But besides those things he was more evil then good.

## Talents and Abilities

The Sheriff appeared incredibly intelligent, perhaps to a genius extent, as shown by his many and often complex plots. There are many examples of this. He threatened to kill Royston White's mother unless he killed Robin Hood. This plan only failed because Hood saved the man's mother. It could be argued that Vaisey should have had Royston followed to the camp but he couldn't do this as he was busy and his men would be too obvious. When he captured Allan A Dale's brother, he knew that Hood would try to rescue them at the hanging and so killed them an hour earlier showing that he could plan and anticipate Hood's movements to a successful extent.

When Gisborne was revealed to have pretended to be a Saracen and kill the King, the Sheriff displayed knowledge of this, suggesting that he was probably responsible for it as he tended to plan most of the plots against the King. Another plan was holding Saladin's nephew hostage for a huge ransom, although he didn't anticipate that Saladin would send assassins to kill the nephew, most likely just an assumption as it would be difficult for such people to get into England. Also, the Sheriff planned to use an impostor King to draw out his enemies which nearly succeeded and, indeed, he was able to get rid of at least one such man.

Another idea was scamming a German count of his money, a plan that backfired however when it turned out this count was not as stupid as he believed. This was merely an underestimation, not a reflection on Vaisey's planning skills. Also, the Sheriff tried to drown Matilda to get her to do something for him, which was good because it shows how he can play on people's fears of death to get them to obey him. This plot only failed because of Hood's unknown intervention. Vaisey also hired a skilled assassin called Carter to kill Hood, and this only failed because of information he did not possess. It could be argued that Vaisey should have had Carter followed to Hood's camp when Hood took him there, but he couldn't do this simply because his men would be too obvious and he would be busy. He also managed to kill Hood's messenger bird to the King that they had both been chasing, showing that Vaisey can plan ahead as he assumed that his men might fail to retrieve the bird and Hood might release it. This plan only failed as the bird he killed was a decoy, information he again did not possess and he was not aware that Hood could find another bird to use as decoy.

Vaisey was also able to disguise himself as a pauper and make Hood's gang take pity on him and was thus able to infiltrate Hood's camp with the help of another pauper woman. He nearly retrieved the pact but failed because he didn't have time to check it was real. Operation Shah-Mat was his idea, this being the plan to kill the King in the Holy Land. He nearly succeeded in killing Hood and the King, but this only failed because Hood was able to escape and convince the King that he was here to protect him and not kill him and therefore was able to stop Vaisey's assassin. Another good idea was selling soldiers to the Irish for money and being able to hide it from Prince John, a plan that failed because one of the Irish brothers turned against him. His last good plan before being "killed" by Gisborne was convincing the people that Hood was a heretic, thus showing that he could play on the beliefs of the superstitious peasants.

This only failed because the Abbot he was blackmailing to convince the people Hood was evil found bravery at the last minute to stand up to the Sheriff. Finally, if the Sheriff was planning to build an army to take back Nottingham and challenge John, it shows he is skilled in deception as he was able to hide this huge task from everyone and place a spy in Nottingham. Also, he made plans for invasion, something that would take time and thought. However, even if he was acting for the Prince, he still hid it from Hood (something quite difficult to do) and still made the invasion plans. Again this was only a failure because Vaisey didn't know Hood and his people had fled the castle before he invaded, and also he was unaware that the substance that exploded and killed him in the great hall was Byzantine fire before it was too late.

Vaisey also showed a genius stroke in his manipulation of people. For example, cutting the tongues of the villagers of Locksley played on people's fears. At the same time he offered a reward for Hood's capture. This succeeded indirectly as when Little John saw that his wife was about to be subject to this, he released Robin who saved the wife by force but was captured. It should be noted that John was prepared to hand Robin in for the reward money (as were his old gang) and also to save his wife. Also, he had Lambert tortured to give him black powder, which again played on fears. It was later said by Robin Hood that Lambert would have given in and this would have let the Sheriff succeed. This only failed as Hood was told the location of Lambert's chemical book and moved it before the Sheriff got to it. Lambert was killed for this betrayal. His hosting of a so-called festival of pain showed Vaisey was adept at putting fear into people as this had the potential to cripple his prisoners' minds and put everyone else in fear.

He had some degree of skill with a bow, as shown when he shoots King Richard in the back from a considerable distance, but fails to kill him.

Finally, Vaisey was also quite skilled in combat. When Saladin's finest assassins arrived to kill the Prince he was holding hostage, he was able to defend himself against them, albeit briefly and with little degree of bravery. He was able to fight effectively against Gisborne when Gisborne tried to kill him, and very nearly succeeded in murdering his old lieutenant. Additionally, during his invasion of Nottingham, Vaisey was able to fight with Gisborne, Archer and Robin Hood, and although Hood defeated him and nearly killed him, this shows great skill as he was able to fight against all three quite effectively. One of his signature moves was to bite his opponent on the hand in order to disarm them, making his style almost unorthodox and very aggressive.

ruthless, greedy, witty, determined, paranoid, driven, cruel, calculating, politically-minded, insecure, devious, intelligent, highly-strung strategist. hot-tempered, generally slow to anger, quiet, shy, and often a voice of reason, knowledge of carpentry and locksmithing, favors two axes as weapons.

In "The Return of the King", near the end of the first season, Allan and Will (at Allan's urging) briefly court the idea of cutting and running with their share of the loot and going to Scarborough to live with Will's family. Ultimately they decide against it, returning in time to save Robin and the gang from getting killed, but not in time to save Marian from apparent death after being stabbed as the Night Watchman.

In "The Angel of Death", Will's father Dan is killed under command of the Sheriff. Mad with grief, Will sets out to poison the Sheriff in spite of the destruction of Nottingham that would result. Only after he is led to believe Robin is dying after drinking the poison does he relent. He also shows himself to be very protective of his frustrated brother Luke, tricking him into getting himself locked out of Nottingham so he will be forced to return to Scarborough.

In "A Good Day to Die" he and Djaq—who have been seen sneaking off together in one or two previous episodes that season—express their mutual love for each other; they remain in the Holy Land at the end of the second series. He bids Robin farewell by holding his tag, and declaring "We are Robin Hood!" for the last time.

expert carpenter. Smart and silent, extremely creative and resourceful, and his skills and inventions have saved the gang on many occasions. He fights with two axes which he also uses in his carpentry.

**Lady Marian**, portrayed by Lucy Griffiths, is the daughter of the former sheriff of Nottingham (Edward of Knighton). Marian is twenty-one years old, and in contrast to most Robin Hood legends, is not described as Maid Marian, but rather Lady Marian. "In those days would be considered quite old to still be a maid," actress Lucy Griffiths explained in the Radio Times preview.

She was engaged to Robin before he went to fight in the crusades and is visibly cold and aloof toward him on his return, although in episode twelve she admits that she considered him a hero even while calling him a fool. She initially disapproved of Robin's outlaw status because she believed that the best way to fight injustice was to work inside the system. However, she aids him in his fight against the Sheriff by frequently spying for him and manipulating Gisborne. Marian also fights the Sheriff in her own right, disguising herself as the **Night Watchman** and giving the poor food and supplies.

feisty, spirited, selfless, brave, loyal, strong-minded, and dedicated to helping people less fortunate than herself. She wasn't as obvious about her philanthropic deeds as some, and usually helped people in a guise.

She behaved like a loyal citizen in public, occasionally trying to persuade him to stop doing evil things, but not daring to show obvious disloyalty to him, in order to protect her aged father and so that she could be an effective spy for Robin's band.

Marian originally refused Robin's attempts to charm her, sometimes calling him a fool, but secretly she thought he was a hero and they became closer as the series went on. Though time and heartbreak may have eroded her gentleness, it has left untouched her valiant spirit and keen sense of duty to her people.

Marian is headstrong and no-nonsense, if often derisive of Robin's arrogance and cocky attitude towards her. But despite this, her ongoing love for him is evident as the series progresses, and they share many tender moments in secret.

Marian was also immensely brave and alarmingly courageous. She did her best to avoid close-range combat with her enemies but, when faced with imminent danger, she would fight to her last breath. Marian was too eager to defend the helpless when she finally joined Robin's gang for real, and recklessly went in to fight the Sherriff's men when they were attacking Clun.

She also had a toxic, complicated relationship with with Guy of Gisborne, saving his life at least once. Guy felt genuine love towards Marian, who seemed, if not attached, attracted to him to some degree.

## Skills

Marian was an incredibly skilled swordswoman and archer and was also quite athletic, frequently performing cartwheels and other acrobatic maneuvers while posing as the Night Watchman. Robin noted (despite his compulsion to shield her from danger) that she was perfectly capable of looking after herself, and this was frequently shown to be true.

Marian was remarkably proficient at unarmed combat, and shown to be far more than capable of holding her own against more experienced opponents. She had a potentially aggressive fighting style and was prone to slight overconfidence. However, she overcame this flaw with fantastic acrobatic ability and incredible stealth.

### Robin Hood

Robin was, in short, the love of Marian's life. They were engaged before he had to leave for the Holy Land. When she sees him again, she acts cold and aloof and to him. It is implied, in the second episode Sheriff Got Your Tongue?, that the reason she was mad at him was because he left her for glory. Although she is hostile to him, she helps him by giving information on the Sheriff's plans. Robin always attempts to charm Marian but always rejects his attempts. Despite this, they share a few moments in secret, most notably in the two part season finale.

There is also a complication in their relationship when Guy forces Marian to marry him in episode 7. In the season finale, she is seriously injured. Fearing that she is on her deathbed, she admits to Robin that even if she calls him a fool, she thinks of him as a hero and also even if she ridicules his actions, she copies them as the Night Watchman. When she "dies", he breaks down over her body and confesses his love for her. In the next episode, she recovers shortly and decides to go on with her marriage to Guy. Robin is devastated at this, and even contemplates leaving Nottingham because of this. When Marian is at the altar with Guy, Much interrupts the wedding, shouting that Guy is a traitor and that Marian's heart belongs to another. Feeling betrayed, she punches Guy and flees the wedding with Robin.

In the second season, their relationship grows stronger and more physical. She continues to aid Robin as a spy. When her father dies, she goes to stay with him in Sherwood Forest. Though they fight a few times, they still remember they have to help others and that it is not about what makes them happy. In the episode Lardner's Ring, Robin proposes to Marian. She accepts but must return to the castle with Guy.

In the second season finale, she goes to the Holy Land with Guy and the Sheriff when she makes an attempt on the Sheriff's life. When Robin learns of her whereabouts, due to Allan, he goes after her. She is then taken to Robin and the gang, who are tied up in the desert to die in the sun. Marian and Robin then start to say their wedding vows, believing that they will die.

Carter rescues the gang, and they rush to the town to find and rescue the king, who is in danger of assassination. Marian finds Guy pursuing the king, and steps in between them, using his love for her as a defense. When Guy demands she move out of the way and let him kill the king, she rebukes him, declaring her love for Robin. Stunned and betrayed, Guy runs her through, leaving her mortally wounded. He escapes while Robin hurries to her side.

### Guy of Gisborne

Guy of Gisborne, a dispossessed noble and Vaisey's right hand man, becomes obsessed with winning Marian's hand in marriage, as she is the beautiful daughter of a lord. From the beginning, she frostily resists his attentions and gifts, unable to look past his murderous ways and cruelty. But as time goes on, Guy becomes attached to her, and she finds herself flattered by some of his attempts at courtship. Certain evidence convinces Guy that she has collaborated with Robin Hood, and he tells Vaizey, who goads him to punish her. When Guy confronts her about this accusation, she is able to convince him of her loyalty, but he cautions her that the sheriff would not be as easily swayed, and offers to marry her to protect her, believing that such an alliance would be inviolable in the sheriff's eyes. Though she does not love him, she agrees to marry Guy to protect both herself and her father, with the condition that they wait until King Richard - whom she knows Guy does not support - returns to England. The betrothal collapses at the end of first season, when it is revealed to her that Guy had deceived her into believing that the king had returned, to force their wedding to go forward.

In the second season, when she and her father are confined to the castle, her dependence on Guy's favor increases, and she must manipulate him for her and her father's safety, leading him to believe that she is in love with him, and that only her angst over their past history is keeping them apart, as her wish for him to become a "better man".

Her manipulations and overtures to him become more daring, physical, and direct than they were in the first season. As a result, Guy increasingly puts himself between her and the sheriff, taking more and more risks on her behalf. Towards the end of the second season, Marian appeared to have developed a sincere attachment to Guy, who acted more and more as her protector, at times even putting his own safety and status with Vaizey on the line.

Vaizey eventually sees Marian as a threat to his hold on Guy, and maneuvers circumstances to poison Guy against her, and ultimately, attempts to have her killed. Guy maintains his belief that they are in love, but will not rescind his loyalty to Vaizey, as Marian begs him, offering him an ultimatum - her, or Vaizey. She confronts him when he attempts the kill the king, shielding the king with her body, and using her love for him to try and dissuade him. When he demands she step aside, and insists that they will marry, despite her pleas for the king's life, she insults him, taunting that she never loved him, she only loved Robin.

they felt that the characters had much unfinished business and things to discuss.

**Djaq** is a Saracen who meets the gang when being transported as a slave and is rescued by them. Her true name is **Saffia**, but she disguises herself as a boy by adopting her dead twin brother's name and appearance. Though Robin's outlaws are shocked when Will reveals that she is a woman, they permit her to stay, and she becomes a valuable and well-liked member of the band. She frequently proves herself logical and knowledgeable, often silencing arguments between other members of the band, and is very observant, noticing important details the others miss.

has considerable knowledge of medicine and chemistry, which she uses to serve as the group's medic (notably saving Marian near the end of the first season when she goes into cardiac arrest) and to create the devastating "black powder". She expresses fondness for the entire gang of outlaws, even Allan following his defection.

he is a man who can sort anyone out with any weapon if the price is right. He has always kept his ear to the ground for whispers of new technologies, exotic arms and dangerous developments. Before meeting Robin and the outlaws, Archer held no allegiance to anyone or anyplace. He was only interested in self-preservation and made his living on the margins.

He is skeptical and wary of his half-brothers, whose existence he knew nothing about, and although they rescue him from the Sheriff's dungeons, he quickly betrays them. Not until he, Robin, and Guy are about to be hanged and are rescued by the outlaws does he straighten up and begin to trust others.

He fights beside the outlaws to capture and defend Nottingham Castle in the finale, and when Robin is fatally wounded by Isabella, he vows to continue defending justice in Robin's name.

The mistreatment of the vulnerable riles her, but prior to encountering Robin she would never intervene unless absolutely certain she could win, showing that she might be less cocky than she appears.

Christy was born in 1984 to Carl and Helen Jenkins, and her maternal grandmother was a witch. A few years later, she became the older sister to Billie in 1986. Billie and Christy had a typical sisterly relationship, as they fought like "cats and dogs". Christy loved to get Billie in trouble and was very sneaky about it, as it took Carl and Helen a while to figure it out. Christy was described by Helen as "adoring Billie, and no one could pick on Billie, except for Christy". Christy was revealed to have been "hearing voices", indicating that her telepathy had kicked in before she was abducted.

Billie Jenkins is very intelligent and ambitious. She was not told by anyone that she was a witch. When her powers began to develop she did research and figured out what she was, what demons were, and how to use her powers all on her own. She began searching for demons by herself. Although smart, she was still new to the craft and had a lot to learn. Because of this, she unknowingly began calling for her Whitelighter Paige Matthews. At first, Billie had too much pride to accept Paige's help. She also did not know who Paige really was because she was disguised and pretending to be dead. When Billie learned that Paige was a Charmed One, an agreement was reached that Paige, Piper and Phoebe would teach Billie everything they knew about witchcraft and Billie would eventually take over fighting demons. Billie was a quick study because she was very eager to learn. While fighting a demon, Billie had a flash of a traumatic childhood memory. This frightened her, a feeling that someone like Billie did not like to feel. Eventually, she allowed herself to remember, and she discovered that her older sister Christy had been kidnapped by demons. After discovering this, Billie became obsessed with finding Christy. She began to neglect her studies, and she also became careless.

After finding her sister, Christy was able to manipulate Billie into thinking that Piper was partially responsible for their parents' deaths. She convinced Billie that the Charmed Ones were selfish, and because of it they were neglecting their duties to the greater good, and that they needed to be stopped before it was too late. Billie finally came to her senses and said she would not be a killer, and realized that Christy had been brainwashed into becoming evil. Billie felt terrible and apologized to the Charmed Ones, explaining that she just wanted to be with Christy, and she was unwilling to see the truth. Billie redeemed herself by taking the Charmed Ones back in time to destroy Dumain and the Triad once and for all.

*Billie Jenkins was a protégé of The Charmed Ones and aided in the fight against evil while they were in hiding. She continued to train with the sisters after their existence was revealed to the world and became a strong force for good. Billie turned to the side of evil after she reunited with her long-lost sister, Christy, who had been kidnapped years earlier and turned by demons. Together, Billie and Christy became the Ultimate Power fighting for the side of evil against The Charmed Ones. In the end, Billie saw the truth and came back to the side of good, but her sister died when she refused to give up the fight.*

Cole's appearance hadn't changed as much as the sisters', or even Leo's. However, it did dramatically change from time to time - especially when the dark magics would take him over. In Season 3, he wore power suits at work and casual clothes away from work, like any other lawyer. While in the Underworld he would wear full black. After Phoebe faked his vanquish, he grew facial hair but shaved it off quickly. His appearance in Season 4 didn't change at all, until he got possessed by the Source. By "The Three Faces of Phoebe", his appearance got a drastic change. He would look worn out, and his eyes were bloodshot due to what appeared to be a losing battle to keep the Source from taking him over. After he got vanquished as the Source at the end of Season 4, he grew short facial hair again and a mustache due to the fact he was stuck in the Demonic Wasteland.

In the Season 5 season premiere, his appearance went back to the way it was in Season 3, aside from shorter hair. As he descended into madness, he gradually grew a beard. By "The Importance of Being Phoebe", he shaved off his facial hair, and wore suits again. His next appearance in Season 7, showed Cole to be much thinner, and with much shorter, highlighted hair.

Likes walks in the park, jazz, fine wine, is ticklish especially on her toes and waist, an excellent salsa dancer but pretends otherwise, likes steak medium rare and artichokes, is great in bed with good stamina. Assistant District Attorney.

* **Extensive Magical Knowledge:** Having been raised in the magical world his entire life with a century of experience, Cole had extensive magical knowledge. He was particularly knowledgeable as a demonologist and fully understood the workings of the Underworld. He knew things the side of good didn't, giving him a rare perspective and a unique insight that no one else had, including even Leo.
* **Master Strategist:** Cole was an astute strategist and tactician. His tactical wit and penchant for elaborate plans was legendary in the Underworld. He had orchestrated various schemes in an attempt to eliminate the Charmes Ones, and would have been successful had not his human feelings for Phoebe cloud his better judgment.
* **Master Manipulator:** Cole's affinity for deception was almost as legendary as his strategic mind. Cole was able to successfully seduce Phoebe and feign himself as an ordinary mortal; decieving even the Charmed Ones until they eventually found him out. He was effective in exploiting mental weaknesses, and use to his advantage.
* **Expert Hand-To-Hand Combatant:** While rarely displayed, Cole had shown technical skills in both hand-to-hand combat and swordsmanship. He had personally mentored Phoebe for a time, and easily overwhelmed her during their sparring sessions. He likely received his combat training under Raynor.
* **Knowledge of Law:** Having legitimately went to law school to gain an upstanding in human society, Cole had genuine skill and expertise as a lawyer. He was considered to be very prominent in his field of profession.

Cole was born in 1885 to California state assemblyman Benjamin Colerige Turner and an Upper-Level demon mother named Elizabeth. Shortly after Cole was born, Benjamin found out his wife was a demon and tried to take Cole from her, but Elizabeth killed her husband with an energy ball and raised Cole herself. Elizabeth taught Cole to despise his human side for its "weaknesses." He suppressed it so completely that he became one of the most powerful demons of all time, under the name Belthazor. The Source of All Evil saw a good deal of promise in Cole and had Elizabeth put him through law school so he could blend into human society as a prominent lawyer. Many upper-level demons seek to infiltrate the mortal world in order to further the cause of evil, and Cole was particularly well suited for this since he was half-human.

Sometime around 1900 or 1901, the Source selected Cole to become a member of the Brotherhood of the Thorn, an elite society of upper-level demons. He was particularly close with two of the Brotherhood's other younger members, Tarkin and Trigg; they were the closest things he had to friends. Over the next century, he made a reputation for himself as a cold, ruthless, and methodical assassin who could kill anyone, an athame being his weapon of choice.

Critics and fans have commented on Kemper's addition to the show, mostly positive. Joshua Ostroff of *Eye Weekly* described Erin as one of the best new television characters of the 2008–2009 season and said, "Erin’s high-grade adorability, up-for-anything attitude and sheer niceness is unlike anyone else in the office, adding a welcome new wrinkle for next season." Andy Shaw of *TV Fodder* said she "adds some freshness to the cast" and Josh McAuliffe of *The Times-Tribune* in Scranton, Pennsylvania, said he liked Erin's "cheerful, appealingly goofy personality".

straight man, grounded and sarcastic

Erin Hannon is the receptionist hired to replace Pam Beesly (after Kevin's brief stint in the job) in "Dream Team". She first appears in "Michael Scott Paper Company", and is referred to by her middle name, Erin, to distinguish her from Kelly Kapoor. Although at times rather intellectually challenged, with her cheerful, silly demeanor, and childlike naïveté, Erin is usually the most consistently nice, optimistic Dunder Mifflin employee. Contrasting with her predecessor, Pam, she not only loves being a receptionist but admires her coworkers, including Michael Scott and Dwight Schrute.

In a deleted scene from "Niagara", she admits she was born four months prematurely and could not eat hard foods until she turned 6. "St. Patrick's Day" reveals further that she was sick and in the hospital between the ages of 3 and 6. Abandoned by her parents, Erin grew up in an orphanage, and later, was adopted into foster families, and has said ("Secretary's Day") that when she was younger "my hair was my room", i.e., the place she hid from stress and trauma. In "WUPHF.com", she said all of her peers were getting their drivers licenses eight years ago which would give her a birth year of approximately 1986. Later, though, she discusses with Phyllis how she (and Phyllis' orphaned child) was born in the wake of the release of the movie *Porky's*, which came out in November 1981, five months before her birthdate. It is hinted that Erin was brought up in a very religious Christian household, as seen in "Nepotism", when Michael argues with the staff about nepotism and defends it by saying the person that God sent to help Earth was His Son, Jesus Christ, which Erin claims is a "really tight argument", and another example is in "Dwight K. Schrute, (Acting) Manager", when she is shocked to learn Gabe is an atheist, and is even more shocked when he states there might be a God, but he does not believe it is just some "guy with a long white beard." Despite her cheerful and innocent demeanor, Erin does have a "darker" side to herself, as revealed in "Paper Airplane", being a fiercely competitive and somewhat violent fighting drive developed during her time in the orphanage, fighting with the other children for just about everything, from food, toys, and even foster parents, and admits to having ripped off a girl's pigtail during a scuffle.

She is seen repeatedly following Dwight's insane directions. Dwight and Andy both admit to being attracted to Erin, as does Ryan Howard. Erin seems to have a fun-loving and bubbly personality similar to Kelly Kapoor, although Erin is much more naïve. She admires Kelly's casual Friday outfit, commenting that she looks like J.Lo, and the two restart Michael's Café Disco after he shuts it down. The two also ride to Pam and Jim's wedding together with Andy, both listening to their iPods in the backseat. In "Counseling", she took the term "disposable camera" literally as she throws a disposable camera away after taking the last picture, commenting that she thinks disposable cameras are wasteful and you never get to see the pictures.

Erin also tells Michael she used to work at a Taco Bell Express but could not keep up when they turned it into a regular Taco Bell. In a deleted scene from "Mafia", Meredith tells Erin that the office will always like Pam better than her, saddening Erin as she does not like conflicts. She also accidentally ruins Pam's painting of the office building while trying to clean it. Later when asking Kelly to help her fix the painting, we find out Erin has a seizure condition—because Kelly demands her medical alert bracelet as payment for her services.

Gabriel was born on May 14, 1994 to Vivian Maddox. His father, Sam Keating, was absent from Gabriel's upbringing due to Vivian and Sam's divorce. When Gabriel was young, his father came round to his apartment looking to be a part of his life. Gabriel's grandmother (Gwen), however, turned him away, refusing to let him know his son. On his way out, Gabriel bumped into his father. Gwen then quickly moved Gabriel out of sight from Sam and into the apartment. When growing up, his mother had mental issues which resulted in Gabriel taking care of her. It got to a point where one of his mother’s doctors was overprescribing pills which resulted in him beating the doctor up. Gabriel was subsequently arrested for assault. Sometime in his later life, Gabriel discovered that he was the son of Sam Keating who had 'died' and moved to Philadelphia where he could be close to his second wife, Annalise Keating. ("The Baby Was Never Dead", "It Was the Worst Day of My Life", "I Want to Love You Until the Day I Die", "He Betrayed Us Both")

### **Season 4**

Prior to attending the University of Virginia where he studied law for his first year, Gabriel attended a separate university for 4 years where he attained his undergraduate degree. Upon discovering his birth certificate when his gran, Gwen died, Gabriel dropped out of the university with the desire to move closer to Philadelphia where he could find out more about his father, Sam Keating's death from his widow, Annalise Keating. ("He Betrayed Us Both", "Make Me the Enemy")

Activist

He was assigned as Whitelighter to the Charmed Ones and fell in love with the middle sister, Piper Halliwell, later in her life. Together, they have three children, Wyatt, Chris, and Melinda Halliwell. After being a Whitelighter, an Elder, and an Avatar, in 2005, Leo fell from grace and became mortal to live out a full life with his wife and children. Over the years of being a Whitelighter, Leo has helped the sisters out with demonic problems often. After becoming mortal, Leo became the headmaster of Magic School and still helps out the sisters with their supernatural burdens.

Leonardo Wyatt was born on the 6th of May, 1924 to Christopher Wyatt and his wife in San Francisco, California. While studying to be a doctor, he met his first wife Lillian and the two got married, however, they didn't have any kids. Leo eventually became a professional in his medical studies and became a medic in the United States Army in World War II. While there, Leo became good friends with brothers Rick and Nathan Lang. He also met Natalie, who was also studying to be a doctor. However, Rick and Nathan eventually died when Leo went back out into the field to help more fellow soldiers after they were injured. He looked back, horrified to find the medic tent exploding, killing them. Leo later died that day as well while bandaging up a soldier's head.

Leo is known as a kind man, completely in love with his wife, and sees the best in people. He has a clear sense of right and wrong, a drive to do what is right even if it means putting himself at risk, and a well-maintained temper. However, he is not afraid to fight someone he deems as a threat to his family. This was fairly highlighted when Gideon killed Chris and tried to kill Wyatt. Like his wife, Leo became more aggressive more prominently in Season 6 due to being separated from his family, which caused severe tension between him and Piper along with a not-so-subtle hatred toward Chris before learning his true identity.

He has shown an extensive understanding of magic, most likely due to his years of being a Whitelighter. In "Scry Hard", Piper describes him as a "walking Book of Shadows" when trying to convince him to take the post as Headmaster of the Magic School.

Unlike almost any other 'Higher Power', Leo has had as much of a search for identity as any of the Halliwell sisters, having been a Whitelighter, an Elder, an Avatar and a mortal, as well as a temporary host for "the Shadow" and several demonic powers.

* **Medical Training:** Due to his former profession as a medic, Leo can also identify and treat certain injuries and illnesses even without magical aid.
* **Extensive Magical Knowledge:** Due to decades of experience as a Whitelighter and access to Magic School, Leo possesses extensive magical knowledge.
* **Hand to Hand Combat Skills:** Leo is a highly skilled hand-to-hand fighter and is versed in the use of certain weapons such as swords and crossbows. Due to his time with the Valkyries, he further extended his combat skills. Even as a mortal, his combat abilities are still impressive, as he managed to overpower and disarm the Darklighter Rennek and killing a few demons with the latter's crossbow on two separate occasions.

Leo's appearance hasn't changed significantly over the series, like his wife, especially in terms of clothing style. Although, his appearance has changed more than his ex-brother-in-law, Cole Turner.

* **Hair:** In the 60s, Leo had almost blond hair, except for a few brown highlights. During season 1, Leo has semi-long, brown hair with blond highlights. Starting from season 2, he wears his hair shorter and keeps blonde highlights until the end of season 3. During season 4 he remains to have short, dark brown hair until season 5 where his hair is shorter. Leo lets his hair grow until it has the same length as in season 4 and remains to keep it that way until halfway into season 6, where he cuts it shorter yet again. He lets it grow again and remains to keep it short until halfway season 8, where he has semi-long hair again with subtle blonde highlights, which shortens at the end of season 8. When Leo takes back Magic School and starts teaching telekinetic orbing classes, he is seen with a few gray hairs.
* **Wardrobe:** He mostly wears a t-shirt with a shirt and jeans. Around the sixth season, he begins to either wear a t-shirt or a shirt but combines both on a few occasions. Paige mentioned at the beginning of season 6 that he has a closet full of plaid shirts, claiming that he loves them. As an Elder, he would wear the yellow robe in season 6, while in season 7, it was also a white robe. By season 8 a change can be seen in his physical appearance, more specifically, his upper body, most notable in early 2005.

Kind. Compassionate. Whipped. Handyman. Army medic. Used to play second base for the Seattle Mariners baseball team, worked in construction, looks after her niece. Moved to Saudi Arabia for a job.

Dan's look consisted of wearing jeans most of the time and either a button down flannel or casual dress shirt, sometimes a t-shirt underneath as well as suede and leather coats on top. He had a somewhat shaggy hairstyle that was combed so that it was split in the middle. For special occasions such as going out to dinner or a party Dan wore a short or long sleeved dress shirt tucked in and dress pants. He also sometimes wore cotton sweaters. Mid-season he also cut his hair but retained the same hair style.

Had a knack for dancing, singing, and performance, vast knowledge of the supernatural. Prone to anger. Outgoing, carefree, passionate, compassion towards humanity, studied art and literature, very accepting of her doomed fate.

His interest in humanity, which turned him good, came from a passion for the arts (i.e. literature and music) making him a competitive candidate for the Literature Professor position at Magic School. He also revealed that he studied at Juilliard College for the Performing Arts, performed on Broadway, and was writing a memoir about his life, none of which he did for more than a year.

Drake was a Mercury Demon, though little is known about his past other than his passion and self-found humanity inspired by literature. He claims never to have killed an innocent in his entire demonic life saying he "*found ways around it"*. While he was still a demon, he went from lair to lair in the Underworld selling copies of a book called, *"Possessions, Confessions, And Ghostly Obsessions: A Demon's Guide To Everything Magical"*. He followed many passions over the years, such as attending Juilliard College for the Performing Arts, performed on Broadway, and tried to write a memoir. However, he never did any of those things for longer than a year.

Inspector for the San Francisco Police Department, had the most amazing healing touch. Dark brown hair cut short, combed to the side or spiky, combed back when it is longer, medium stature and blue eyes.

Throughout the series, Andy is often dapperly dressed while on the job, wearing a suit, dress shirt and tie in the office; if he is out in the field he often wears a tan/gray colored trench coat. Oftentimes, the dress shirt is of a solid color, sometimes stripped with a solid color tie with designs on it. Off the job, Andy dresses in a casual but masculine way, wearing solid color sweaters, dress shirts or tees, jeans, and suede or leather jackets.

> ―Vince Gilligan

As the adolescent son of Walt Sr and Skyler White, Walt Sr. Walt Jr. doesn’t seem to be completely sure of who he is, and is beginning to experiment with his identity, going by both "Walt Jr." and "Flynn" over the course of the series. Despite his disability and use of crutches to get about, Jr does not let it define him, still having an average teenage life with several close friendships at J. P. Wynne High School (including his best friend Louis Corbett). He likes to be manly, and longs for the approval of both Walt Sr. and his uncle Hank, with whom Jr had an extremely close friendship with.

When he discovers that Walt Sr. has lung cancer, Walt Jr. changes his attitude and sets up a website, "www.saveWalterWhite.com," which requests and collects donations in an effort to help pay for Walt Sr.'s cancer treatment. Walt Sr.'s lawyer, Saul Goodman, arranges for a wave of fictional "donations" drawn from Walt Sr's drug money, in order to launder it and also make Walt Jr.'s efforts appear successful. Angered by his parents' constant fighting, Walt Jr. tries to establish an independent identity, insisting on being called Flynn and asking Louis to teach him how to drive. When Skyler and Walt Sr. separate, Walt Jr., given no explanation by either parent, only sees that his mother has (from his point of view) inexplicably thrown his father out of the house, and he takes his father's side and stops answering to the name Flynn.

Always being "late to the game", Walt Jr. remained oblivious to his father's drug trade life until Marie, confident that Walt Sr. is in Hank's custody, forces Skyler to reveal the whole truth to her son. Upon learning of his father's connection with Hank's death, Walt Jr. mistakenly concludes that Walt Sr. killed Hank. Feeling betrayed, Walt Jr. calls 911 when Walt Sr. fends off Skyler's knife attack, thus forcing Walt Sr. to leave and eventually end up on the most wanted list. In "Granite State," Walt Sr. attempts to talk to him over the phone and have him retrieve $100,000 that Walt Sr. planned to send to Louis' address; however, Walt Jr. angrily refuses and hangs up. Shortly before his death, Walt Sr. visits Skyler for the final time, and watches from afar as Walt Jr. returns to the safe house from school.

Robert California is the former CEO of Dunder Mifflin/Sabre. An enigmatic individual, he was often inspiring and intimidating to the staff in the Scranton branch office, especially so to Regional Manager Andy Bernard. Robert greatly enjoys Hidetoshi Hasagawa's 'Coconut Penis' flavored energy drink but once remarked that it was "better before they added this coconut crap" to the drink.

Robert has been married three times, with his third wife, Susan, leaving him after the events of "Mrs. California". In a talking-head interview from that episode, Susan states (when referring to the staff's instructed dislike of her), that the last time she was employed, she "hated the boss' wife" as well, revealing that the woman she is referring to was one of Robert's ex-spouses. This would mean that she and Robert met while she was under his employment at one time, and that the two possibly began their relationship while he was still married. Robert also has a young son, named Bert. It is unknown if Robert fathered him with Susan.

The Sabre Corporation website implies that Robert may be of partial Native American descent, which could be the reason why he so strongly dislikes Christopher Columbus. In "Turf War", it is revealed that "Robert California" is not his real name, and in the next episode, he introduces himself to David Wallace as "Bob Kazamakis", although it is unknown whether "Kazamakis" is his actual surname or simply another alias. However, throughout the series, the other characters almost always refer to him by the full name "Robert California".

Robert appears to typically manipulate situations in a duplicitous fashion, as seen in the episodes "Mrs. California", "Trivia", and most greatly in "Last Day in Florida", when he privately admits to Jim Halpert that the newly opened Sabre store was a poor concept, and that he only approved it because Jo Bennett wanted it, but pretending, at a high-level meeting, that the store was a brilliant idea, and using newly appointed Vice President Todd Packer as a scapegoat for the store's failure, stating that Packer executed it poorly.

He has been shown to have somewhat of a fascination with the PBS program *Sesame Street* (which he refers to as "The Street"). In "Garden Party", he reveals that his body has become acclimated to Southern Italy, despite the fact that he has never even been there. During "Trivia", it is shown that he uses a monthly wrestling meet instead of exercising. He also dislikes The Black Eyed Peas, stating "It's rock and roll for people who don't like rock and roll; it's rap for people who don't like rap; it's pop for people who don't like pop".

People developed a deep attraction to her, allowing her to get away with certain behavior, implies she is attracted to people as a manipulation tactic, and is in fact repulsed.

Throughout his appearances, Robert has been shown to have innumerable unhealthily salacious appetites and beliefs (once proclaiming that "Everything... is sex" – even calling this opinion of his a "universal truth"). He has displayed a need for intercourse regularly, as shown in "Christmas Wishes", when he becomes depressed after being deprived of it for only ten days. On more than one occasion, Robert has attempted to convince the staff to engage in group sex with him; in a deleted storyline from "Free Family Portrait Studio", he asks Jim and Pam Halpert if they would be interested in having a threesome. Some episodes have also implied that he is bisexual. This is most heavily hinted at in the eighth-season finale, in which he is seen drinking an energy drink for Asian homosexuals (and complaining about the coconut taste in the new "Coconut Penis" flavor), and bids Andy farewell by kissing him on the lips.

## Season 8

Cathy is introduced in "Pam's Replacement" as a temporary replacement for Pam, who is nine months pregnant and about to go on maternity leave. Several of the office workers take notice of her attractiveness, but reassure Pam that she is also beautiful. This causes Pam to feel somewhat insecure, though less because she is jealous of Cathy and more so because she feels everyone except Dwight is being untruthful to her. She asks Jim if he finds Cathy objectively attractive. Jim repeatedly denies it, but Pam is skeptical. Jim justifies his answer in a talking head interview, saying “I'm not going to tell my nine-months-pregnant wife that I find her replacement objectively attractive. Just like I’m not going to tell my two-year-old daughter that violent video games are objectively more fun. It's true, but it doesn't help anybody." Pam enlists the help of Dwight to determine if Jim is lying about being attracted to Cathy. To do this, Dwight devises a lie detector test in the form of a store blood pressure monitor. Dwight initially deduces that Jim is not being truthful about not finding Cathy attractive, but also notes that Jim's blood pressure is high on all his answers, including his baseline question. Pam quickly discovers Jim has high blood pressure, and forgets about the issue in order to focus on her husband's health.

In the deleted scenes for "Christmas Wishes" Cathy apparently requests to switch from Jim and Dwight's desk clumps because she is finding their constant prank wars to be disruptive. When Dwight makes fun of her as she is moving away, Cathy tries to excuse it as her just having more space. In another deleted scene, Dwight sets up a bucket prank to fall on himself just to see Jim's reaction, but it is Cathy who accidentally walks into it instead.

In "Special Project", when Pam is back from her maternity leave, in a deleted scene, it is shown that Cathy has just broken up with an abusive boyfriend. Although she wants to get back with him, she convinces herself not to because she was unhappy. She is also seen having a nervous breakdown because Pam is back and that she will be removed because there is no work for her. In "After Hours" Cathy joins Stanley, Dwight, Jim, Erin, and Ryan on a business trip to Florida. Before boarding the bus, Cathy is talking on the phone with an unknown person implying that she believes she and Jim will hook up in Florida. She also mentions her belief that Jim and Pam's relationship has fallen apart.

Upon arriving in Florida, Cathy sticks close to Jim, flirting with him (though Jim does not seem to notice, and doesn't reciprocate) and trying to establish a closer relationship with him. One night, after Jim leaves the group's gathering at the hotel bar early, Cathy looks visibly upset and also leaves. Later, Cathy, dressed in a revealing outfit, shows up at Jim's door where he has been relaxing and watching basketball on TV in his room. She claims that there's a problem with the heating in her room and asks if she can hang with Jim while she waits for it to be fixed. Jim hesitantly agrees, aware of the potentially inappropriate nature of Cathy's visit. He desperately tries to make it so he's not alone with Cathy, even calling Dwight under the pretense that there are bed bugs in his room. Dwight clears the room of the imaginary bed bugs, though his appearance leads to Cathy claiming that she's grossed out and that she needs a shower, which she proceeds to take in Jim's hotel room. While in a bathrobe on his bed, Cathy tries to get Jim to feel her legs. He immediately expresses his discomfort and reminds Cathy that he's happily married to Pam. Cathy feigns shock and disbelief, and assures Jim that her visit is purely innocent. Jim apologizes, though he realizes Cathy is not being entirely honest when she cuddles up next to him in bed. Jim later comes back from the bathroom to find Cathy under the covers in just her lingerie, and tells her that she needs to leave. Cathy tries to reassure him that she's innocent, but Jim is incredulous and vehemently orders her to leave. At that moment, Dwight (once again citing bed bugs) enters the room with an unknown "chemical compound" and begins spraying it everywhere. This finally forces Cathy out, especially when Jim tricks Dwight into spraying the chemicals onto Cathy, claiming that he sees bed bugs near her. Cathy leaves screaming. Dwight tells Jim his hotel room is a biohazard and suggests that he bunk with Cathy. Jim ultimately ends up rooming with Dwight.

At work, she wears a business suit with slacks, a dress shirt, and no necktie, normally a two-piece suit but sometimes a three-piece, high-waisted blouse with a blazer and slacks.

Dark brown hair and brown eyes, pale, born August 2. Defiant, clever, independent, stubborn.

Paige is very similar to her deceased oldest sister, Prue Halliwell, in terms of personality. She is stubborn, strong-willed, and has issues with her (biological) father. One of Paige's main personality traits and something that she struggled with after becoming *Charmed* was her independence. For over 20 years, Paige went through life as an only child and attempted to retain her independence after finding her sisters, though she still loved them and considered them a blessing to her even if she sometimes had little disagreements with Piper because of how different they are much like Prue and Phoebe had.

During her teens, Paige was a rebel like her older sister Phoebe. She used to smoke and at one time was an alcoholic. However, she matured heavily when both her adoptive parents died in a car accident.

With Whitelighter's blood inside of her, Paige has an inherent need and ability to help others, which led her to want to become a social worker. Although, she initially struggled with being a Whitelighter until she helped a woman which helped her in return. Despite being half pacifistic, Paige can be judgmental as mentioned by Phoebe.

The quirkiest of the four sisters, Paige is shown to have a goofy, sometimes, awkward disposition, much to her own chagrin. She has a tendency to ramble whenever she gets overly excited and even though she may not be the most physically affectionate, she shows her love through her immense loyalty towards her family and friends. Her willingness to sacrifice herself time and time again to help those in need often lead her towards trouble, but that never stops Paige from doing what she truly feels is right.

* **Hair:** For her entire childhood and going into her twenties, Paige sports long dark brown hair, sometimes with bangs. She usually fixed her hair with loose curls. She also frequently puts her hair in ponytails. During season 5, Paige turns her hair red when a potion accidentally blows up in her face and cuts it into a bob. She straightened and curled her hair in equal proportions. Then in season 6, she lets her hair grow and turns it strawberry blonde. Her hair is usually in loose curls, and on occasion is very straight. Sometime in season 6, Paige soon turns it back to a dark brown color and keeps it to a moderate length. She often wears it with a loose curl. Paige dyes her hair to red again and later darkens the color. She allows her red hair to grow long until she eventually cuts it short and has wavy curls.
	+ **Aliases:** As the alias *Jo Bennett*, Paige has long, dark brown hair with a loose curl.

* **Wardrobe:** Her fashion sense changes considerably from her early to late twenties. In her early twenties, her style had a "party girl" look, wearing slightly provocative clothing. She often wore shades of pink, green, and red. During her mid-twenties her dress style became somewhat more grownup, wearing jeans more often, and wearing slightly less revealing tops. She often wore shades of yellow, blue, and pink. During her mid-twenties, Paige starts to wear more pantsuits and clothes with lace and looks more professional than in her early twenties. Also, she favors dark colors when wearing professional clothing.

* **Make-up:** Paige is naturally pale, except when she wears makeup. She often chooses bright red or dark purple lipsticks. We can definitely say that Paige wears more make-up than her older sister, Piper.

* **South Bay Social Services:** Paige's first job as a social assistant. She worked for Bob Cowan and dreamt of being promoted to a social worker. Paige got promoted to the social worker position twice: she turned down the first one. Though she accepted the second promotion, she found it too distracting from her calling as a witch and decided to quit altogether.
	+ Paige considered going back to Social Services in 2005 when the sisters had Billie Jenkins to help out with magic. However, after working with Sam Wilder, she decided against it.
* **Temp Jobs:** After quitting her job at *South Bay Social Services*, Paige had a few temp jobs. Some of these jobs were *Dog Walker*, *Fruit Packer*, *Secretary*, *Magic Performer Assistant*, and *Caretaker for the Elderly*.
* **Headmistress of Magic School:** After Gideon was killed by Leo Wyatt, Magic School was being closed by the Elders. Paige, however, found that the school should stay open for all its students. The Elders agreed but only if she would become the headmistress.

— Piper and Prue upon seeing Patty from 1975.[src]
Patty had brown eyes and brown-blonde hair the colour of which she would change - a light shade while conceiving Phoebe, but dark brown after finding out she was pregnant. Prue once pointed out in From Fear to Eternity that Patty used to wear a sandalwood-scented perfume, but also noted in That '70s Episode that she smelt like burgers whenever she came home from Buddy's and kissed her (Prue) goodnight. In life, her fashion was colorful and complicated, and she styled her hair lightly curled on her wedding day. As a spirit, she wore light-colored clothes such as white and blues instead, though she retained her sandalwood fragrance. Prue and Piper both agreed on their mother being a very beautiful woman, and as her older daughters, they were said to have inherited her looks, especially Piper, though Mrs. Johnson also noted similarities between Prue and Patty.

### Psychological Issues

Norman occasionally goes into a fugue state, during which time he attacks those who threaten Norma. He will then black out and not remember the event. For example, when Sam Bates beat Norma, Norman struck Sam in the head with a blender, but doesn't recall the ordeal. Norma made it look like a freak accident where a shelf fell on Sam. Another example is when Dylan Massett disrespected Norma. Norman tried to bludgeon him, but Dylan punched him. He didn't remember it and Dylan ended up telling him what happened. In the episode What's Wrong With Norman, while Norman is in bed, he sees a visual and auditory hallucination of Norma advising him to go search for Summers' belt at Deputy Shelby's house. While Norman really believes Norma told him to do so, Norma tells Norman in Trust Me that sometimes he imagines stuff that doesn't actually happen. In the episode The Man in Number 9, Norman is seen talking to himself as if in a dialogue after an argument with Bradley which is a sign of a psychotic episode. In the episode Midnight, Norman experienced a blackout between the time Miss Watson drove him to her home and he sees her undress herself inside her room and before the time he is running home from the rain. In addition, Norman had possession of Miss Watson's pearls but he doesn't remember acquiring it. All these evidence suggests that Norman is psychotic as he experiences many auditory and visual hallucinations and is unable to recall specific events beyond what is normal forgetfulness. In Norman's case, he does not remember his violent encounters almost immediately after they occur.

In the episode Check-Out, Cody drives Norman to Caleb's motel so they can beat him up. Norman recalls in his mind the time Norma confessed her brother used to force her into sex as a child. Norman then has a visual hallucination of Norma getting raped by Caleb. At the end of the episode, Norman heads to Caleb's place and takes full possession of Norma's character. In his Norma-mode, Norman accuses Caleb of raping him and says, “*I was your little sister you should have protected me*.” Norman's embodiment of his mother indicates that Norman possibly has Dissociative Identity Disorder as well.

Following his mother's death, half of Norman begins to deny her death and after digging up her corpse he begins to imagine "Mother" living with him in their own paradise, and as part of the delusion he sees her death as faked and that she had to live in isolation. Over the next two years the blackouts have begun to get out of control, as the episode Dark Paradise shows Norman looking through his diary in which he is recording the blackouts, which are getting far more frequent, to the point they happen at least once a week and for almost a whole day. The illusion of "Mother" starts to come into question when Norman is reminded by Dr. Edwards that he can see things that are not actually there. "Mother" eventually reveals to Norman that he indeed created her to combat horrible situations that he would otherwise be emotionally unequipped to confront by himself. It is later discovered that Norman had been hallucinating his meeting with Dr. Edwards when the later had reminded him about his hallucinations, since the doctor disappeared some time after Norma's death. By the time he confesses to Sam Loomis' murder, the "Mother" persona has completely taken over Norman.

Born November 9th. Language arts teacher at a high school. Young and compassionate.

She was taken with Norman Bates as a student but sensed he may have had some deep emotional issues that were going unchecked, so she tried to help Norman adjust to his move into town and suggested that he put down some roots.
**Norma Louise Bates (née Calhoun)** was the resilient, beautiful and mercurial mother of Norman Bates and Dylan Massett. She was emotionally complex and, as a single mother, utterly devoted to her son. She constantly juggled her own needs and some serious baggage while also trying to create a new home in a new town for herself and Norman.
Over the course of the series, Norma is seen as a dominant figure who refuses to let people walk over her. She cares deeply for her youngest son Norman to the point of interfering in his life when he attempts to make a connection with any girl he meets. However, she has a constant need for male attention, often sleeping with men who are younger than her.
Due to the abuse suffered during her childhood at the hands of her parents she finds it hard to form a lasting relationship with any man with Norman being the only male figure that she fully trusts. She was raped by  her older brother Caleb, which led to her eldest son Dylan being born. Unlike her relationship with Norman, he and Norma have failed to bond over the years since he blamed her for cheating on his legal father John Massett.

She eventually forms a close friendship with the town's sheriff Alex Romero which leads to them marrying only for it to end in her death.

Kyle was known to be smart, calculative, caring and strong-minded, but also ruthless and cold due to his trauma of his parents being murdered. When he believed the Avatars were responsible, he was willing to go to any lengths, including killing Leo if it meant getting revenge on them. After he found out his parents were really killed by demons, he remained untrusting toward the Avatars and tried to stop them from creating Utopia, including collaborating with demons.

By sacrificing himself to protect the world, Kyle became a Whitelighter as a reward and later became an Elder. By now, he seemed to have gotten over his anger, as he had a casual conversation with Leo when the latter came to the Upper Regions for questions about his daughter's Whitelighter powers.

"*She was overloaded. She didn't want to complain, she didn't want you to have to feel guilty for having lost your powers. Just don't stay mad at her too long, okay? It hurts her, Phoebe. She looks up to you, a lot more than you know.*"

providing good advice and even the occasional direct assistance when necessary.

Nothing was revealed about Penny's professional life. However, she presumably had a job with a good income, and it was once shown that she was particularly interested in IBM stocks (That '70s Episode), which implies that she was possibly an active investor.

After she retired, she moved out of the manor into a smaller apartment in the city so that Patty and Victor Bennett could start their own family. When the couple divorced, Penny moved back in with her daughter and granddaughters. While Patty went to work, Penny looked after her granddaughters, teaching them how to cast spells and brew potions. After Patty died, it was highly likely that Penny came out of retirement as she had to raise her granddaughters and to make ends meet, though it was never revealed as to what kind of job she had.

Her friend's betrayal, her husband's murder, and the vanquishing all served to have a dramatic effect on her for the rest of her life. Penny transformed from a peace-loving witch into a ferocious slayer of demons and warlocks, one who practiced and honored all of her Wiccan abilities to the extent where she became reputed as one of the most powerful witches of her time. She learned how to focus her telekinetic powers, effortlessly employing them to perform great feats, and created spells and potions of her very own. She was also responsible for writing a considerable part of the Book of Shadows.

**Eve Rothlo** is a supporting character on ***How to Get Away with Murder***. A no-nonsense death row attorney who prefers the glamorous lifestyle New York has to offer, Eve could trade legal blows with the best of them back in her days attending Harvard law - and in fact, she did. Her relationship with the renowned Annalise Keating grew into an epic romance, but it soon came crashing to a halt when Annalise ended up leaving Eve for her therapist. Eve spent the years thereafter attempting to get over her ex-lover, but every now and then she finds herself sucked back into Annalise's tangled web of lies, cover-ups and murder, and the pain starts all over again.

* On July 31, 2015, *TVLine* reported that Famke Janssen had been cast as a brilliant, revered defense attorney for a multi-episode arc and would first appear in the season premiere of the series' second season.
* Eve's cell number is: "(212) 555-0192." The cell number also corresponds with Eve's home address which is in New York.
* In Don't Go Dark on Me, Frank tells Annalise that Eve is saved on his phone as "The One" because he believes that Eve and Annalise are endgame. The series finale revealed that this did not happen, however, as Eve comments during Annalise's eulogy that Annalise "didn't choose me".
* In Something Bad Happened, it is revealed that Eve is an atheist.

### **Early Life**

Having been in the same year of Harvard Law together, Eve formed a romantic relationship with Annalise, which lasted for an unspecified amount of time. From dinner parties at a man named Al's house, to dancing all night at a Brazilian bar, the two carried out a happy relationship with one another, even despite there being times Annalise would show up on Eve's doorstep in tears, such as when she lost a mock trial because a D.A. was scared of her. This all came to an end, however, when Annalise decided to end her relationship with Eve so that she could be with (and eventually marry) her therapist, Sam Keating. Eve did not take well to the breakup and has yet to move on, still thinking about her former lover every day. ("It's Time to Move On")

Little is known about Ryan Howard's early life, but it is revealed in a deleted scene from "Diversity Day" that he grew up in Scranton and attended Penn State University. In the webisode "The Story of Subtle Sexuality", Ryan mentions that his parents live in separate houses. At the beginning of the series, Ryan Howard is a temporary employee at the Scranton branch of the fictitious paper distributor Dunder Mifflin who joined the staff in the first episode, earning him the nickname "The Temp".

In early episodes, he is shown to be uncomfortable with his professional relationship with his boss, Michael Scott. Michael often forces Ryan to carry out menial tasks for him while at the same time, becoming obsessed with Ryan's personal life as well as gaining Ryan's friendship. As the series progresses, Ryan begins to display a great deal of contempt and disdain for both his coworkers and his job. This becomes more apparent when Ryan is promoted in "The Job" to work at Dunder Mifflin's corporate office in New York. This leads to Ryan becoming an egotistical braggart despite lackluster sales skills. In the season 4 finale "Goodbye, Toby", Ryan is arrested for committing fraud. He is eventually released and required to work community service.

In the season 5 premiere, Ryan returns to the Scranton branch after Michael arranges for him to work Pam's job. However, his malevolent aspirations to climb back to the top of the corporate ladder are revealed when he adds Jim and Kevin to a list of people who "will be sorry" when he returns to the top. In a deleted scene, he would add Dunder Mifflin CFO David Wallace to that list after Wallace called and became irate upon learning of Ryan's return to the Scranton branch.

Ryan was a member of a fraternity in college and holds an MBA from the University of Scranton's Kania School of Management, which he earned during the second and third seasons. His dream is to one day own his own business.

Throughout the series, Ryan changes his persona every year beginning with the third season. When offered a job for Corporate in the season 3 finale, Ryan relocates to New York City and adopts a nouveau riche persona: becoming extroverted, growing a beard, wearing nice suits, and getting $200 haircuts. But he subsequently ends up partying hard and getting addicted to drugs and alcohol. His downfall culminates in misleading Dunder-Mifflin's shareholders via his website's sales numbers, effectively committing fraud as Oscar Martinez later claims.

In season 5, he returns with blonde highlights and a "work hard, plays hard" attitude. He works for Michael at the Paper Company and still tries to keep his work ethic and strive to do good.

In seasons 6–8, Ryan seems to be devoid of many of his former morals and ambitions. He does not care to work, reads poetry, and initiates various creative projects. He switches clothing, from wearing fanciful scarves, fake glasses, suspenders, bow ties, trench coats, etc. and tries to create an "unsolvable attitude". He stays at Dunder Mifflin, but his position is unspecified; Michael mentions that he works there full-time in "WUPHF.com". Many of the staff, most notably Jim and Pam, note Ryan's ineptitude as an employee and that he sponges off his parents by living with them and driving his mom's car.

### Seasons 1–2

For the first episode and for much of season 1, Ryan's purpose in the show mirrors that of his British equivalent, Ricky Howard. He is the audience surrogate, allowing other characters to introduce themselves to him, and by extension, the viewer.

Ryan was hired to replace Tom Peets, an employee who had lost a battle with depression and committed suicide shortly before the start of the series. Tom is first referenced in "Performance Review", where a note from him in Michael Scott's long-ignored suggestion box requests counseling for his depression. Michael initially assumes the note is a joke, as no-one who currently works at the branch is named Tom until Phyllis reminds him of the suicide.

Over the first two seasons, Ryan is primarily defined by his dissatisfaction with his job and his relationships with Michael and Kelly. His dissatisfaction manifests itself in his use of sarcasm and general disinterest towards his co-workers. He is ready to leave at a moment's notice, keeping no personal effects at his desk ("The Secret"), and is on the lookout for other job opportunities ("Drug Testing").

Ryan initially viewed Michael as a mentor but quickly realized that Michael was a bad role model. He does not wish to stay at Dunder Mifflin long or even be remembered when he leaves, citing that his ultimate fear is that he will gain a nickname around the office (being "the something guy"). During Ryan's term as a temporary employee (and even for a few months after his promotion to full-time status), various characters (mainly Dwight) frequently address him as "Temp" instead of by his real name. In later seasons, several characters sarcastically use this term long after Ryan has risen to a more prominent position in the company.

Ryan is often the victim of Michael's antics and bizarre man-crush on him, usually resigning to requests without complaint. Also, by the end of season 2, Jim facilitates a relationship between Kelly and Ryan, which is very rocky from the start.

### Season 3

By the third season opener "Gay Witch Hunt", Ryan becomes a full-time employee and inherits the job vacated by Jim Halpert. Despite the promotion, Michael still treats Ryan as his personal assistant. Upon Jim's return to Scranton after the branch merger, there is a moment of awkwardness when Jim casually sets up at his former desk, only to learn that it now belongs to Ryan—who refuses to give the desk back to Jim, the first hint at a rivalry between the two.

Superior education.

### Season 4

Novak, who also writes for the show, commenting on the fourth season, said, "We wanted him to dress as obnoxious as possible. As much as black as possible.". One of the show's producers Ben Silverman had just taken over for Kevin Reilly as co-chair of NBC Entertainment, and Ryan's close-cropped beard and love of expensive suits was a good-natured parody of Silverman's grooming style.

This season also includes episodes that exhibit Ryan's social life outside the workplace, such as showing his studio apartment in Manhattan. Over the season, he also becomes increasingly arrogant, condescending, and ambitious, speaking almost exclusively in business buzzwords. In "Dunder Mifflin Infinity", Ryan presents his concept of Dunder Mifflin Infinity, a new website, to the Scranton branch, and gives a BlackBerry to all of the main employees. He is eager to show off his newfound wealth. His occasional brushes with Kelly remain tense. In "Money", Darryl for the first time expresses his romantic desire for Kelly as he claims to "get excited every time I see that little dude (Ryan) walk through the door". It is also apparent that his new corporate peers also do not care for him; one employee yells at Ryan to get out of his office, and another tells Michael and Dwight, "it was funny to see Ryan all embarrassed".

Later in the season, Ryan's new website is plagued by problems, including child predators and slow sales. The salesmen resist the new site as well. The later episodes show him becoming more excited and on edge, and it is suggested that he has developed an addiction to cocaine. Feeling threatened by Jim Halpert's good relationship with David Wallace, Ryan conspires against Jim and sets out to get him fired. Ryan also begins dressing in an increasingly unkempt fashion.

In "Goodbye, Toby" Ryan is – now typically – curt with Jim. However, it is discovered that Ryan has been misleading the company's shareholders. In a YouTube video entitled "Whoaa!! Check it out !!!", Ryan is seen being arrested and escorted out of Dunder Mifflin's New York office by police, much to Michael's dismay and Jim and Kelly's pleasure.

### Season 5

In the first episode of season 5, it is revealed that Ryan has been released with a sentence of community service, and has gotten sober. Michael hires Ryan through the temp agency as the fill-in receptionist. In a deleted scene, he receives a call from David Wallace for Michael. Infuriated that Ryan is back at Dunder Mifflin, Wallace abuses Ryan by telephone in front of the staff. This prompts Michael to defend Ryan and save his job. However, Ryan still exhibits the ego issues he developed in the fourth season.

Ryan moves back to the annex with Kelly soon before Pam is scheduled to return. He starts showing off in front of Kelly and the two start kissing passionately. Ryan tells Kelly to break up with Darryl via text message. Darryl responds quickly saying "it's cool", with Kelly overjoyed and Ryan shocked. In "Frame Toby", Ryan breaks up with Kelly again, saying he is going with friends to Thailand, but convinces her to have sex with him one last time and give him some traveling money.

Ryan is not seen again until the episode "Dream Team" in which he is seen working at a bowling alley until being hired by Michael to work at the Michael Scott Paper Company where he makes his first sale. His appearance has changed drastically with having a tan from his trip to "Thailand" (later revealed to be Ft. Lauderdale) and his hair is dyed blonde.

Initially, Ryan acts with disinterest and irresponsibility toward the new company, choosing to spend his time talking on his telephone and surfing the web, which, along with lack of space, causes tension with Pam. However, as time passes, relations between the employees become more amicable as Ryan's behavior matures. Bonding with Pam and Michael over the company's relative success and through the close quarters, Ryan becomes more active and involved.

In the sixth-season premiere, "Gossip", Ryan's appearance has changed back to his more traditional look – black hair and no longer with a noticeable tan. In "The Promotion", Ryan scams Pam out of a wedding gift. However, he seems to have picked up some persuasion skills from the sales team, as he manages to wheedle $50 out of Pam. As of the beginning of season 6, he is dating Kelly again. The two dance down the aisle together at Jim and Pam's wedding.

Hipster persona, wears suspenders, flannel shirts, bow ties, scarves, began photography as a hobby.

In "Shareholder Meeting", he deflects Jim's instructions and refuses to do any work. He also spreads the rumor that Jim is not as powerful as Michael. Jim makes an example of him by putting him in the closet behind the kitchen with no windows or internet access. As a result, in "Scott's Tots", Ryan tells Dwight he will help him get Jim fired. At the end of "Manager and Salesman", he and Dwight go out and celebrate Jim's demotion to salesman. In "The Chump", he approaches Erin's desk and bluntly tells her that he would like to sleep with her. She asks if he is joking to which he backs down, claiming that he is. In "Whistleblower" Ryan announces a social networking website he is launching called "WUPHF".

Is a hot new executive.

In "WUPHF.com", Ryan tries to get people to invest in his company. When he reveals he will be broke in nine days, Kelly comes in and tries to invest. Then Ryan tells them that he has an offer from the Washington University Public Health Fund (WUPHF), only for Darryl to realize that they are only interested because of the domain name. Ryan tries to weasel more money from Michael but is caught by surprise when Michael tells all the other investors that while he will not agree to divest their WUPHF holdings (they need Michael's assent because he holds more than 50% of the shares) he does think Ryan is shallow and a bad friend and Ryan looks horrified when Michael says he has those nine days to make things right. At the end of the episode, Ryan tells everybody he has sold WUPHF.com.

Ryan shows more immoral traits in "Garage Sale" when he sells jars of his mother's homemade Pesto sauce, which she intended to just be for family, for his own profits. Ryan is also in the group that helps Michael think of a good way to propose to Holly. When Michael does propose to Holly, he has some employees jokingly ask Holly to marry them. He states that Ryan was the only one he was concerned about.

In "Michael's Last Dundies", he is shown to be hurt that Danny Cordray broke his streak of winning the "Hottest in the Office" award, although he tries to hide it. Ryan's contribution to the office workers' version of "Seasons of Love" is that Michael helped him get off drugs. In "Goodbye, Michael", Michael gives Ryan his St. Pauli Girl beer sign, but only after making sure he is not prone to seizures. Ryan seems to genuinely appreciate the gift.

In "The Inner Circle", Ryan lies to Deangelo about his job at the Scranton Branch. While Kelly is angry, she goes along with it in exchange for Ryan being a dutiful boyfriend. However, Kelly soon exposes Ryan as a fraud after reprimanding her severely about her paycheck in front of Deangelo. However, because Deangelo prefers Ryan over Kelly, he appoints him as her official supervisor.

In "Dwight K. Schrute, (Acting) Manager", after Dwight accidentally misfires a gun in the office and Toby is filling out the gun violence accident form, the HR rep asks the staff if they felt like this was a terrorist incident. Ryan, who is clearly enjoying Dwight's situation, openly says that he felt terrorized.

In "Search Committee", Ryan reveals to the camera that he believes Angela's boyfriend Robert is gay because he "liked" Ryan's Facebook photos at 3:00 AM. During a staff debate over who should be hired for the manager position, Ryan states he wants an outsider. While Jim thinks he is referring to the applicants outside of the office, Ryan says he meant an "outsider" as someone who is on the margins of society and suggests a homeless person. Ryan laments that he got away with everything while Michael was his boss and it was not good for him. He says he wants guidance and leadership but does not want the new manager to boss him around.

### Season 8

In "The List", Ryan is on the "Losers" side of the new CEO Robert California's list. He tries to convince the other members of the staff, that is also on the "Losers" side, that the list is in fact flawed, as he is on it.

In "Spooked", he dresses up as Jesse Pinkman, a character from Breaking Bad.

In "Pam's Replacement", he asks Jim if Pam's replacement, Cathy, is single. However, he does not approach her.

In "Gettysburg", he decides to stay at the office while Andy and some of the other employees are at Gettysburg. He tries to impress Robert California with some ideas for the company but is temporarily outshined by Kevin.

In "Mrs. California", Ryan tells Susan California and his co-workers his "Dream for a Wish" idea. Susan refers to him as Bryan, and while he corrects her mistake and she apologizes, he calls her a "bitch" in a talking-head interview.

In "Christmas Wishes", Ryan and Kelly give a pregnant Angela a shirt that reads 'Ask, then touch.' He is also seen dancing with Kelly several times during this episode. In a deleted scene, Andy tells Ryan that he will have health insurance for the new year, but Ryan is upset because he had wanted ten extra sick days, and looks uncomfortable when Andy says he expects Ryan to be a better worker going forward.

Ryan joins Jim, Stanley, Erin, and Cathy Simms in traveling to Tallahassee and working on the Sabre Store project under Dwight's leadership. He briefly flirts with Erin when he learns she is planning to remain in Florida, but after she says he could join her as roommates and possibly begin dating in six months, he coldly states he is in love with Kelly. When Dwight and Nellie Bertram open a test store to see how the project could really work, Ryan is tasked to create and deliver a presentation about the Sabre Pyramid. However, he badly panics because his mother and Kelly are not there to keep him on an even keel, and Jim and Dwight's efforts to calm him down fail and leave Ryan to run out on the team and get on a bus.

In "Angry Andy," it is revealed that Kelly broke up with Ryan to be with Pam and Jim's Indian-American pediatrician, Ravi. He spends the whole episode trying to get back with Kelly, only for his attempts to fail in the end.

He is last seen in "Fundraiser." In order to appear sophisticated, Ryan pretends to be "completely devastated" about Smokey Robinson's death. Jim and Pam catch him in the lie when they reveal that Ryan cannot be a true fan because he can only name one of Smokey Robinson's songs. Oscar reads on the internet that news of Robinson's death is a hoax and Jim finds that Robinson will be playing in concert only three hours away. They try to persuade Ryan to buy tickets, but upon learning how expensive it is, Ryan pretends to back out due to the opening act.

**Angela Noelle Schrute** (née **Martin**, formerly **Lipton**) is a fictional character played by Angela Kinsey. She is head of the Accounting department at Dunder Mifflin Scranton. She can often be cold and stern with others. Angela loves cats and owned several of them.

* Angela professes to be Christian. Her exact denomination is unknown. She is extremely disapproving of other religions, particularly Hinduism.
* Angela is the safety officer and previously led the Party Planning Committee.
* Angela claims to be a vegetarian and hates seafood or at least the idea of serving it at an office party. When Kevin suggests the idea of having the office farewell lunch at Cooper's Seafood, in the episode "Branch Closing" she exclaims "No seafood!" See Angela Martin's vegetarianism for more details.
* In her family, if anyone seems like a slut, they say "someone took the slow train from Philly"
* In "The Fire" when asked who Roy would have sex with, he replies "That tight-ass Christian chick", referring to Angela.
* In "Money", Dwight returns a sleep apnea mask to Angela, indicating that she suffers from sleep apnea.
* In "Stress Relief", Angela stated she weighs only 82 pounds. She must have lost weight as in "The Convict" she states she is 90 pounds.
* Among fans of the office, Angela is often considered the opposite of Pam, just like Dwight is the opposite of Jim.

* She is known to be a germaphobe. In the episode St. Patrick's day, Erin Hannon sneezes, urging her to put on a surgical mask.

* Angela states that she and her sister haven't spoken in a while due to a disagreement. However, in "Finale", Angela states that the two are very close and even have a secret language. This may have been a different sister, however. In "The Surplus", Dwight says, "after the readings by all of your sisters...", confirming that she has multiple sisters.

* In "Traveling Salesman", when telling a story to Pam, she uses the alias "Noelle" for herself, while using "Kurt" for Dwight, implying that Noelle could be her middle name. This is confirmed three seasons later in "Happy Hour" when Angela cites her full name as a plaintiff in a lawsuit against Dwight.

* Angela appears to have a foot phobia. In "Casual Friday " she is offended by Oscar wearing sandals and attempts to get Toby to act on this. While talking to Toby, she calls Oscar's attire "Gross!" and ends the conversation with Toby by yelling "I don't want to look at his feet! Do your job!"
* Announced in April 2020, Funko will release an Angela Martin with Sprinkles Funko Pop! exclusive to GameStop.

In addition to heading the accounting department, Angela is also the office safety officer and former head of the Party Planning Committee. She is a constant source of complaints to Human Resources, although she "redacts" those lodged against Dwight Schrute on the onset of their secret romance. Angela lives with several cats, adores posters of infants posed as adults, is a vegetarian (see Angela Martin's vegetarianism for details), and enjoys singing occasionally. When she makes a mistake, Angela's first response is usually to shift the blame to someone else, along with an insult.

Angela's strong homophobia makes her dislike the popular show 'Will and Grace' (although she claims it's because it's "terribly loud"), except for the scenes with Harry Connick Jr ("He's so talented"). She is a former child beauty pageant contestant and says that she enjoys being judged. She tends to list colors that she finds "whorish", including orange and green, that always seem to correspond to the color of clothes being worn by either Phyllis or Meredith.

Angela bottles up her emotions to the point that, on occasion, she has private, emotional outbursts over relatively trivial matters. She also seems to be something of a conservative Christian. She states that the two books she would bring with her to read if stranded on a deserted island are the Bible and *The Purpose Driven Life*. Further, she would bring *The Da Vinci Code*, but only so she could burn it. She despises the mystery novel genre because, in her words, "I hate being titillated." She also frequently makes fun of Pam for dating two guys (Roy and Jim) in the office, although, she herself dated Andy, Dwight, and The Senator. She also cheated on all of them with each other.

However, in a deleted scene from Dream Team, she says her new boss Charles Miner is mysterious and wants to flip to "his last page". In a deleted scene from Season 3, Angela glowingly compares Dwight to Fox News commentator Sean Hannity. She says in Prince Family Paper that her ideal of male beauty is Boris Becker.

She was mainly seen as a minor character in the first two seasons but since starting her relationship with Dwight her character has been explored numerous times and has been so further since their break-up in Fun Run. Angela, throughout season 3 and carrying on into season 4, essentially became the second lead female of the show, behind Pam Halpert.

Angela has a sister to whom she was very close but has not spoken in sixteen years over a disagreement she does not even remember, a situation that she recounts with a great deal of pride. She appears unable to apologize, as further detailed in Product Recall when she cannot bring herself to say sorry on behalf of the company (saying instead "our official position is apologetic"), and in The Return, when she uses a wordy, third-person monologue as a way of apologizing to Oscar for being homophobic.

She did, however, say she was sorry to Kevin for being "mean" twice in the mini web-series 'The Accountants'.

It was revealed in The Return and Traveling Salesmen and confirmed in Happy Hour that her middle name is Noelle. It's also implied in Money that she suffers from sleep apnea.

Angela drives a light brown first-generation Ford Focus sedan as seen in The Dundies. In Season 6 episode Niagara she is seen to drive a second-generation Saturn S-Series (which Oscar's ex-boyfriend Gil used to drive), and this also is shown in Andy's Play, where she drives away in it after cutting off sex with Dwight in a parking lot. In Season 8, Episode 24, she is seen chasing Dwight in a blue second-generation Cadillac SRX with a "Re-Elect Lipton" sticker on the rear bumper.

Angela claims to weigh eighty-two pounds and wears a child's size ten (Women's Appreciation). In addition, because she finds the clothes at Gap Kids to sometimes be too "flashy", she occasionally shops at the American Girls store, buying items meant for "large colonial dolls". She is 4'10", short enough to walk under a limbo stick in Café Disco, without bending over. Michael has twice made fun of her stature, nicknaming her "Booster Seat" in reference to small children having to sit on one in restaurants. She is also only 82 pounds, as she said when Dwight created a fake fire, and Angela was trying to get pulled up through a vent by Oscar.

He later "roasted" her during Stress Relief, by saying he couldn't see her when she was hiding behind a 'grain of rice'.

Angela ruled (in seasons 1-4) the Party Planning Committee (PPC) with an iron fist. Usually, when a committee member suggests an idea, Angela immediately shoots it down with a mean comment or sharp rebuke. The PPC normally consists of Angela, Pam, Phyllis, and Meredith, although Meredith was naturally not present when the committee planned her surprise birthday party. Karen became a regular member of the PPC when she was transferred to Scranton but was expelled by Angela for her "unsuitable" ideas during A Benihana Christmas.

Ryan joined the committee to help plan the Christmas Party, and Oscar joined it to help plan his own "Welcome Back" party (The Return). Angela was particularly hard on Phyllis during Launch Party and was left with a huge burden when Phyllis got fed up and quit the PPC.

It is implied in the webisode series, Blackmail, that she has or had a clandestine sexual relationship with her church pastor when Creed hands out envelopes containing incriminating information on several of his peers and Meredith opens her envelope and asks "Who's Pastor Davis?" prompting Creed to switch the envelopes between Angela and Meredith. After reading the note, Angela appears to be heavily embarrassed.

**Dwight Kurt Schrute III** (born January 20, 1970) is a fictional character on *The Office* who is portrayed by Rainn Wilson. He is one of the highest-ranking salesmen as well as the original assistant to the regional manager, (disputed), and former Assistant Regional Manager at the paper distribution company Dunder Mifflin. Additionally, he is a bed-and-breakfast proprietor at Schrute Farms, a beet plantation owner, and an owner of the business park in which Dunder Mifflin exists. He is notorious for his lack of social skills and common sense, his love for martial arts and the justice system, and his office rivalry with fellow salesman Jim Halpert. He is also known for his romantic relationship with Angela Martin, head of the accounting department. He has at times risen to the position of acting Branch Manager of the Scranton branch, but often serves as a second or third in command as Assistant (to the) Regional Manager. While Dwight was a regional manager in the last few episodes of the series, he named himself the Assistant to the Assistant to the Regional Manager (A.A.R.M). Dwight was also the Vice President of Special Projects Development for the Sabre Corporation, which was the parent company of Dunder Mifflin at the time, but was soon replaced by Todd Packer, who was almost immediately terminated. In the final season, Dwight is offered the position of permanent Regional Manager.

When the series begins, Dwight Schrute is a competent salesman, despite lacking general knowledge, at the Scranton branch of the paper distribution company, Dunder Mifflin. Dwight formally held the title of "Assistant to the Regional Manager", but constantly refers to himself as "Assistant Regional Manager", attempting to elevate himself to second-in-command to branch Manager, Michael Scott. (Michael privately makes him Assistant Manager in "The Fight", tells him that no record/mention will be kept of the "title change only", then never acknowledges it again.) Dwight craves authority over his co-workers and relishes any minor task that Michael or anyone else will give him. Although Dwight acts superior to many individuals and is often resourceful in crises, he is shown to actually be quite gullible, ignorant, and naïve. For this reason, he is easily tricked and pranked by his desk-mate and fellow salesman, Jim Halpert. Dwight often speaks in a halting, intense manner, even in casual conversations. He often uses one-upmanship to better himself over his peers, such as boasting about how he trains specific parts of his body. Dwight will sometimes engage in jokes and games in attempts to please Michael but often fails to do so, because of Michael's perception of himself as the jokester of the workplace. After Dwight temporarily leaves Dunder Mifflin, it is shown that he had long been watering the office plant and arranging the toys on Michael's desk in a manner that made Michael happy, unbeknownst to Michael.

Dwight is a former volunteer sheriff deputy, but has to step down after breaking his pledge in order to help his boss, Michael, illegally pass a drug test by giving him his urine in the episode "Drug Testing". He is also a notary public; this creates difficulties when Angela desires to send him a notarized letter regarding their break-up. He resides on his family's beet farm, alongside his cousin, Mose. Dwight has affinities for paintball, *Battlestar Galactica*, ping pong, survivalism, Goju Ryu karate, and weapons. He also has a preference to ride in the back seat of cars behind the driver because it is the safest location in a car. He takes Karate very seriously, gaining a black belt in season 9. He was also "Senpai" to the Sensei of the Dojo in which he took part in. He is also faster than a Black Pepper snake, known as a speckled kingsnake.

In "Whistleblower", he is encouraged to invest in real estate by former CEO and owner of Dunder Mifflin-Sabre, Jo Bennett. Dwight decides to purchase the industrial park building where the Scranton branch resides. He has shown entrepreneurial traits, like converting the building lobby into a coffee shop in "Nepotism", converting an empty room in the office building into a state-of-the-art gym in "Mrs. California", and organizing a barn maze before Halloween where kids can pay admission to play in "WUPHF.com". He also owns a plot of land on the light side of the moon, given to him by Andy Bernard in season 8.

In an episode commentary on the Season 1 DVD, Wilson refers to Dwight as a "fascist nerd". In a feature on the Season 3 DVD, Wilson describes Dwight as "someone who does not hate the system, but has a deep and abiding love for it." Wilson also noted that Dwight's personality has the unusual combination of personalities: He enjoys muscle cars and heavy metal music, but is also a science fiction/fantasy nerd.

All throughout the series, Dwight drives a maroon 1987 Pontiac Trans Am, until the finale where he owns an orange 2013 Dodge Challenger SRT.

Dwight speaks German, but a somewhat fictionalized version of it, with made-up words like "Perfectenschlag" ("Special Project"), "Bildenkinder" ("Work Bus"), "Bestest Mensch" and "Guten Pranken" ("Finale").

Dwight admits that his knowledge of German is "pre-industrial and mostly religious" ("Two Weeks"), as might be expected if the language was learned exclusively in an Amish church or context. This helps explain why he ends a phone call with "Auf Wiedersehen" rather than the correct "Auf Wiederhören" ("Money"), a specialized term for telephone conversations, which would not have existed in pre-industrial Germany.

### German culture

Due to his family's German ancestry, Dwight has adopted many aspects of German culture. In "Take Your Daughter to Work Day", he shares with the children stories from *Struwwelpeter*, a 19th-century collection of German morals for children. In "Night Out", he sings a German lullaby to Ryan. In "Moroccan Christmas", he enumerates the Schrute five-fingered intervention by counting on his fingers the German way.

Dwight also wears clothes that were or were inspired by German military uniforms. See Dwight Schrute's clothing for more details.

Dwight is trained in the art of surveillance and is a former Lackawanna County volunteer sheriff's deputy. He has a purple belt in Goju-Ryu karate and is the senpai at his dojo. Dwight is a pop culture and sci-fi enthusiast, who has expressed fanship of many sci-fi movies and popular television series. In the episode "The Fire", he mentioned the movie *The Crow* as being his favorite film. He hints at belief in fictional creatures such as androids, zombies, and vampires (though curiously, despite having claimed in "Business School", to have shot a werewolf (that was actually his neighbor's dog), he says in one of his blog entries that he does not believe in them; however, he may have simply been denying claims of werewolves at Schrute Farms in order to prevent potential visitors from being frightened away). He enjoys, and is shown to be skilled at, playing table tennis, and states that many of his heroes are table tennis players. His musical tastes vary, but heavy metal seems to be a recurring theme. He also likes the popular rock band The Beatles, his favorite songs being Eleanor Rigby and Paperback Writer. His personal musical talents are not lacking, as he plays guitar and recorder, and sings, as well. He has a fascination with cars; he usually checks a car's suspension, especially muscle cars. He drives a 1987 Pontiac Trans Am though in the "Finale" he's driving a 2013 Dodge Challenger. His technological talents are limited, but he shows a passion for the online role-playing game *Second Life*, in which the only differences between himself and his avatar is that his avatar has the last name 'Shelford' and the ability to fly, and in "Spooked", he plays StarCraft while dressed in a Halloween costume of Sarah Kerrigan. He also shows an interest in trains, as he is restoring a turn-of-the-century steam engine in his slaughterhouse, during "The Meeting", which has him bonding with Toby Flenderson, as they share the same interest. In "Todd Packer", it is revealed that Dwight does not know who Justin Bieber is, asking Jim "Who is Justice Beaver?", leaving Jim to answer "A crime-fighting beaver."

Dwight owns an impressive array of weaponry. For more details, see Dwight's Hidden Weapons.

In "Survivor Man", Dwight demonstrates extensive knowledge of how to survive in the wilderness, being able to provide himself with food, and, by observing Michael, from a distance, through the scope of his center-fire rifle, he stops Michael from poisoning himself, although it is not clear whether the mushrooms Michael started to ingest were actually poisonous.

Dwight is vocal about his views on justice, which is reflected in his television viewing habits, as he enjoys watching and has great admiration for Judge Judy, as well as Vic Mackey on *The Shield*. In "The Negotiation", Roy Anderson attacks Jim, because he kissed Roy's fiancee, Pam, but Dwight intercepts the attack with pepper spray. Throughout the episode, Jim attempts to show his appreciation, but Dwight refuses to accept his gifts, simply stating "Citizens do not accept prizes for being citizens". In "Drug Testing", Dwight finds half of a joint in the parking lot, which incites him to carry out a severe, and thorough, investigation. When he discovers that Michael might have been exposed to illegal drugs at a concert, he substitutes his own urine during the mandatory drug test. Dwight then resigns from his volunteer position at the Sheriff's Department, because he feels that he is no longer worthy of working there. In "Frame Toby", Dwight states that he is skilled at framing people, as well as animals, revealing that he once framed a raccoon for opening a Christmas gift, and a bear for eating out of the garbage, although he had made it obvious to the police that he wanted Toby to be imprisoned. In the episode "Women's Appreciation", he is quoted as saying "Better a thousand innocent men are locked up than one guilty man roam free."

In "Conflict Resolution", Dwight states that he does not like to smile, as showing one's teeth is a submission signal in primates, and that whenever someone smiles at him, "all [he] sees is a chimpanzee begging for its life." Dwight owns many exotic pets including piranhas, frogs, an arctic wolf, a raccoon, a porcupine named Henrietta, and an opossum, although the wolf escaped due to poor restraints and he flushed his piranhas down the toilet. He also has an interest in bears and is ready to debate the habits and characteristics of different species of bears. He also has expressed a surprisingly large affection towards baby otters, as shown in the cold opening of "Whistleblower".

In "Costume Contest", Dwight claims to be able to sit on a fence, and that he is even able to sleep on one, stating that "The trick is to do it face down, with the post in your mouth".

It is revealed in the "Suit Warehouse" episode that as a child Dwight collected cat feces.

Annabeth Thibodaux -or Annabeth Nass as a married woman- is a pretty, cheerful, creative, perceptive and empathic strong lady in her late 20's. She's graduated from Auburn University where her family is considered as a sort of "Auburn Royalty" and in which she was part of the cheerleading team. At the beginning of the series events, she was a housewive really involved in her city life, being an active member of the *Belles of Bluebell* and even taking the lead of *The Memory Matrons* spot, a well-known society devoted to preserving Bluebell's history. Back then, she was eager to have a child and married to Jake Nass, a man who eventually leaves her for a waitress from Baton Rouge by the end of season 1. She was also keeping a blog -*Annabeth's Blog*- featured on Bluebell's website. Annabeth is really gifted in cooking and so, during season 2, starts running a catering business with her best friend, Lemon Breeland. She then develops feelings for the Mayor Lavon Hayes but decides at first not to pursue a romantic relationship with him because of Lemon's love for him. However, her best friend later gives them her blessing and so Annabeth and Lavon can start dating. Throughout the series, Annabeth also becomes a close friend to Zoe Hart. During season 3, she is employed by Bertram "Brick" Breeland as a medical secretary for the Bluebell practice and this new position eventually leads her to develop an interest in the health field and enroll in a school for nurses in season 4. In the meantime, she dates the nephew of the rival town's mayor, Davis Polk, who even proposes to her, but she declines, telling Lemon she did so because she is still in love with Lavon who now loves Lemon back again and wants staying with her for good this time. During season 4, Annabeth realizes she no longer loves Lavon and starts dating George Tucker with whom she ends up in the series finale.

## Involvement

* Annabeth is a graduate of Auburn University, and she and her family are considered Auburn Royalty, which is why she didn't tell her parents straight away that she was dating Lavon Hayes, who is University of Alabama through and through (Family Tradition).
* A former member of the Belles, AnnaBeth quit the Belles along with her best friend Lemon in the episode Take This Job And Shove It.
* Lemon makes a statement in the episode Walkin' After Midnight about how difficult it is to find a virgin in the town of Auburn, which AnnaBeth takes offense to.
* AnnaBeth and Zoe Hart become friends more openly as of season 3; however, it is not clear on how much Lemon is aware of their relationship. **Read more about Zoe and AnnaBeth here.**
* AnnaBeth is a good cook, and she and Lemon Breeland briefly ran a catering business together. Also in the episode Family Tradition, AnnaBeth's mother Dorrie comments on her daughter's culinary skills. In the episode, I Run To You, AnnaBeth's jam making seems to be quite good because Crickett became addicted to it and Zoe also gave it a good review.
* Member of the Memory Matrons, she was chosen by Delia Ann Lee as her replacement for the lead Memory Matron spot.
* Prior to becoming head Memory Matron, AnnaBeth maintained a blog - AnnaBeth's Blog - which can still be seen on the Bluebell website.
* AnnaBeth was a cheerleader at Auburn University. Her grandfather played football for the same school and led them to victory against Alabama in the Iron Bowl.

**Wade Kinsella** is Bluebell's resident bad boy with a heart of gold. Wade is friends with the Mayor, Lavon Hayes, and lives in the gatehouse on the Mayor's Plantation, sharing a generator with the carriage house, where Dr. Zoe Hart moved in. He works as a bartender at the Rammer Jammer, in the latter part of Season Two he partners up with Lemon Breeland in buying it, and in Season 3 becomes the sole owner of it.

## Personality

On the surface, Wade Kinsella comes off as a bad boy who doesn't care what other people think. But as you get to know him, you'll notice he has an inferiority complex, which is especially apparent when he talks about George Tucker's successes. It also becomes apparent that Wade is in love with Zoe, even though the most challenging of times and even though he can't admit it to himself.

Can't admit it to herself that she is in love, on the surface she comes across as a bad boy who doesn't care what other people think, but as you get to know her, her inferiority complex becomes noticeable.

**Pamela Morgan "Pam" Halpert** (née **Beesly**; born March 25, 1979) is a fictional character on *The Office*, who is played by Jenna Fischer. Her counterpart in the original UK series of *The Office* is Dawn Tinsley. Her character is initially the receptionist at the paper distribution company Dunder Mifflin, before becoming a saleswoman and eventually office administrator until she left in the series finale. Her character is shy, growing assertive but amiable, and artistically inclined, and shares a romantic interest with Jim Halpert, whom she begins dating in the fourth season, and eventually, marries and starts a family with as the series continues.

### Occupation

* Office Administrator (former), Dunder Mifflin Scranton
* Sales Representative (former), Dunder Mifflin Scranton
* Sales Representative (former), Michael Scott Paper Company
* Secret Assistant to the Regional Manager (former), Dunder Mifflin Scranton
* Receptionist (former), Dunder Mifflin Scranton
* Bar Tender (former) (possible), The Banshee Pub

### Workplace

The character was originally created to be very similar to the British counterpart, Dawn Tinsley. Even minute details, such as how Pam wore her hair each day, were considered by executive producer, Greg Daniels.

"When I went in for *The Office*, the casting director said to me, 'Please look normal'," recalls Jenna Fischer. "Don't make yourself all pretty, and dare to bore me with your audition. Those were her words. Dare to bore me."

Taking heed of the advice, Fischer said little during the auditions, during which she was interviewed in character by show producers, in an improvisational format, to imitate the show's documentary premise. "My take on the character of Pam was that she didn't have any media training, so she didn't know how to be a good interview. And also, she didn't care about this interview," she told NPR. "So, I gave very short one-word answers and I tried very hard not to be funny or clever because I thought that the comedy would come out of just, you know, the real human reactions to the situation... and they liked that take on it."

"When I went into the audition, the first question that they asked me in the character of Pam—they said, 'Do you like working as a receptionist?' I said, 'No.' And that was it. I didn't speak any more than that. And they started laughing."

Fischer found herself creating a very elaborate backstory for the character. For the first few seasons, she kept a list of the character history revealed on-screen by the creators, as well as her own imaginative thoughts on Pam's history. She created a rule with the set's hair and make-up department that it couldn't look as though it took Pam more than 30 minutes to do her hair, and she formulated ideas as to who gave Pam each piece of jewelry she wore or where she went to college. Fischer also carefully crafted Pam's quiet persona. "Well, my character of Pam is really stuck," she explained to NPR. "I mean, she's a subordinate in this office. And so, I think that for her, the only way she can express herself is in the silences, but you can say so much by not saying anything."

Originally meek and passive, the character grew more assertive as the seasons passed, prompting Fischer to reassess her portrayal. "I have to approach Pam differently [now]," she explained in Season 4, a defining season in which her character finally begins a long-awaited relationship with Jim and is accepted into the Pratt Institute. "She is in a loving relationship, she has found her voice, she has started taking art classes. All of these things must inform the character and we need to see changes in the way she moves, speaks, dresses, etc."

* Pam wears a pink cardigan in episodes where it is suggested that she recently had sex. See Pam's lucky pink cardigan.

**James "Jim" Halpert** (born October 1, 1978) is a fictional character in the U.S. version of the television sitcom *The Office*, who is portrayed by John Krasinski. The character is based on Tim Canterbury from the original version of *The Office*. The character is also named after a childhood friend of executive producer Greg Daniels. He is introduced as a sales representative at the Scranton branch of paper distribution company Dunder Mifflin, before temporarily transferring to the Stamford branch in the third season. Upon the merger of Scranton and Stamford branches, he becomes Assistant Regional Manager, and later co-manager alongside Michael Scott during the sixth-season episode arc from "The Promotion" to "Manager and Salesman".

although it is also defined by a rivalrous pranking on fellow salesman Dwight Schrute and a romantic interest in receptionist Pam Beesly, whom he begins dating in the fourth season, marries in the sixth, and has children with in the sixth and eighth. Jim's coworker, Andy Bernard, who transferred from the Stamford branch, often calls him by the nickname "Big Tuna".

Jim Halpert was born on October 1, 1978, to Gerald and Betsy Halpert. He has two brothers; Pete, who lives in Boston, and Tom, who lives in New Jersey. They both share Jim's general love of pranks but have come across as unpleasant and they somewhat bully their little brother. Jim's parents presumably live in Scranton, as well as his sister Larisa and best friend Alan Murphy, who are listed as his emergency contacts at Dunder Mifflin. While Pete and Tom have been seen on the show a few times, Larisa has not. He has a niece, Vanessa, and a nephew old enough to play T-ball. In "Branch Wars," while he is not specific on which brother he is referring to, he states that his brother's wife just had another baby. Jim enjoys cycling, and, as he reveals in a deleted scene from "Take Your Daughter to Work Day," at times will babysit Toby Flenderson's daughter, Sasha. He also lists soft-shell crab as his favorite food. Jim has noted that basketball "Was kind of [his] thing" in high school. Although no high school is specifically named by Jim, both Dunmore High School (as evidenced in a deleted scene from "Product Recall" where, during a business visit, he asks a high school student about a former teacher) and West Scranton High School (as evidenced when, during "Email Surveillance," Pam holds up his yearbook displaying their mascot name, *Invaders*, across the front) are referenced in separate episodes. In the episode "Dwight's Speech," Jim tells Dwight that he majored in Public Speaking, however, he later denies this. Jim began working at Dunder Mifflin between 1998 and 1999 (as evidenced in "Pilot" and "The Merger," where Jim says that he still loves when Michael says, "Wazzup!" crazily after seven years, and that on his first day at work Michael played an orientation video which parodied *The Blair Witch Project*).

In several episodes, it is stated that Jim is a fan of the Philadelphia Phillies, Philadelphia Eagles, and the Philadelphia 76ers. Jim appears to be a fan of hip-hop, specifically Eminem, as Pam mentions him listening to the *8 Mile* soundtrack on his iPod in "The Delivery." He also appears to like alternative rock, soft rock, and the band Snow Patrol, as Jim uses "Open Your Eyes" as the background music for the video that he shows to Pam of their past history on the documentary in the episode "A.A.R.M." Apparently, he is of Scottish descent, as in "Niagara" his father can be seen wearing a kilt to Jim's wedding to Pam. In the episode "Weight Loss," it is revealed that his screen name for AIM is JIM9334. Like his father, Jim suffers from high blood pressure, as revealed in the episode "Pam's Replacement."

Though Jim loves to play pranks on Dwight, he is shown to have some things in common with his nemesis, such as a knowledge of comic books and an appreciation for the sci-fi/fantasy genre; as demonstrated in "Take Your Daughter to Work Day" when Jim and Dwight correct Michael on details about Superman and Aquaman. Despite their frequent conflicts, Jim and Dwight are also shown to be an extremely competent sales team in "Traveling Salesmen."

* Jim is somewhat skilled with Photoshop.

**Prudence "Prue" Halliwell** was the oldest Charmed One, and had always been regarded as the bravest and most powerful of the four sisters, to the extent that she was granted the nicknames "*Super Witch*" and "*Wicca Wonder*". She is the older sister to Piper and Phoebe Halliwell, and the older maternal half-sister to Paige Matthews. Prue is the firstborn to Patty Halliwell and Victor Bennett.

Her Wiccan powers were focused on mind and movement: the ability to move objects with her mind, and the ability to project herself in an astral form. Besides this, Prue possessed the basic powers of a witch: the ability to cast spells, brew potions and scry for lost objects or people. She could also access the Power of Three, the collective power of the Charmed Ones.

Prue worked as a successful photojournalist at 415 Magazine, a career she wanted to pursue since her youth, but had given up until being introduced to the world of magic made her realize that her dreams were worth fighting for.

Despite her formidable powers and sharp intellect, Prue was tragically murdered on May 17, 2001, in her own home by the Source of All Evil's personal assassin, Shax, which temporarily severed The Power of Three altogether.

For years, her sisters thought that she was living happily in the afterlife with their mother and grandmother, though they were eventually told that Prue had been reincarnated. However, Prue had actually disappeared and Patty gave Cole Turner the task of finding her. Cole eventually discovered that Prue had inhabited the body of a comatose witch, and taken the identity of Patience. As Patience, Prue lived in Salem, Massachusetts and runs "Salem Witch House", a tourist attraction.

Though Prue initially chose to keep her distance from her sisters out of fear of the cataclysmic consequences, she eventually decided to return to San Francisco when her youngest sister, Paige Matthews, arrived in search of a candidate for Magic School who worked at "Salem Witch House", and was happily reunited with Piper and Phoebe.

Ultimately, after vanquishing the Darklighter Rennek and absorbing the Empyreal Sword, the Grimoire and the All into herself, she became the host and the connection between Earth to the Upper Regions and to the Underworld. Over the course of the year, she began to pose a threat to her family and eventually, despite her best intentions and efforts, became a calamity to mankind before she rejoined her family in the afterlife.

### Early life

"*Good point, Chicken Little. It's just so hard for me to talk to her. She's always been more like a mother*"
—Phoebe talking to Piper about Prue[src]

Prue was born on October 28, 1970, to the Warren witch Patty Halliwell and the mortal Victor Bennett. She started out as a happy, naive, and witty child who often argued with her younger sister, Piper, over toys or the usage of their magic. Despite her young age, Prue had perfect control over her birth power of telekinesis, which allowed her to move objects using only the power of her mind.

On March 24, 1975, she was visited by a future version of herself, alongside a future version of her younger sister Piper, and a future version of her unborn sister, Phoebe Halliwell. After Phoebe was born, their grandmother, Penny, bound their powers in order to prevent the warlock Nicholas from killing them and possessing their powers after he was given immunity from them by Patty against her will. Penny also erased her and Piper's memory of even being witches and having powers.

Three years later, Prue witnessed her mother's corpse get taken away after the Water Demon killed her. This transpired to be a crushing sadness for her to bear, causing a dramatic influence on her psyche: from that day on, she was not able to say "I love you" to anyone, as it was the last thing she ever said to her mother.

She formally had a good relationship with her father, Victor. However, continuous heated arguments between her father and maternal grandmother resulted in him leaving the family, which also caused Prue to resent him bitterly.

Not long after Prue's mother, Patty died, and Victor was still living in the manor, Prue heard the devil's chord, which is a mixture of notes used to attract and capture demonic children. She then saw a demonic child get pulled into the ice cream van and went to try to save him, but got subsequently pulled into the truck, trying to save the "child" and suddenly found herself in the playground where the Nothing resided. A frightened Victor went to check on Prue and noticed she's not in her bed anymore, he ran outside and saw a van, thus, making him think something bad had happened. He opened the door and found himself in the playground as well. He was able to find Prue and return her safely back. However, Grams wasn't too happy about it when she found out.

From a very young age, especially after their mother's death and later their father's abandonment, Prue had to look after her younger sisters, to the extent of sacrificing a majority of her childhood to help raise them. Piper even stated that she and Phoebe were lucky and had an easy life because Prue was so responsible, while Phoebe confessed that Prue took her surrogate-maternal duties so well yet so seriously that she always felt Prue was a strict mother to her than an older sister.

Despite her serious nature and her myriad of responsibilities, during her high school years, Prue was a very popular student. She was the president of the student council and the head cheerleader in her squad. She had an on and off relationship with her and her sisters' childhood friend Andy Trudeau. The relationship would then pick up again in their late twenties. At the age of seventeen, the boy Prue thought she was in love with attacked her incurring the wrath of an indignant Grams. According to Piper, Grams presumably used witchcraft to deal with him as the boy was never seen again afterward. 3 years later, herself, as well as Phoebe, were in a car accident, resulting in Phoebe getting hospitalized, Prue then blamed herself for hurting her. Grams tried her best to keep them together so they would be able to fulfill their destiny of being the Charmed Ones. However, because Prue and Phoebe could never get along, she believed that they would never mature enough to handle their powers once they're back. Right before Prue's wedding to Roger, Grams went into cardiac arrest and died.

* Prue Halliwell's birthdate is repeatedly shown to be October 28, 1970, throughout the show, and "1970" is even printed on her gravestone. However, her past life P. Bowen died in May 1971 according to the family tree, which should make Prue's birthdate impossible. The family tree is also shown to have many other continuity errors.
* Prue is portrayed by actress Shannen Doherty, who is most likely known for her role as Brenda Walsh on Beverly Hills, 90210.
* After Shannen Doherty announced she was leaving, the original idea was to recast the role of Prue. Tiffani Thiessen and Jennifer Love Hewitt were offered the role, though both declined. It was then decided to replace Prue with a long-lost half-sister. If Thiessen had been cast, it would have been the second time she'd replace Shannen, having previously done so on Beverly Hills, 90210.
* Prue makes a physical appearance after her death in Cat House during two flashbacks. However, she only appears in her astral form in Just Harried and as a dog in Look Who's Barking; neither times featuring Shannen Doherty as the first one was only the back of a stunt double.
* Although Shannen Doherty had left the series after season 3, she was indirectly referenced in every single episode's opening credits (even though her face was not shown). During the opening credits from seasons 4-8, they display Prue's advanced telekinesis power from the episode "Morality Bites". This can be seen as a tribute to Prue.
* The "starring" shot is Prue's hand flipping the Book of Shadows pages, scene of the episode The Honeymoon's Over.
* Shannen Doherty has recently declined for her likeness to be used in the Charmed comics. This also happened in 2001, where she forbid an action figure company to use her likeness for a *Prue Doll* so therefore. This is probably why Prue's appearance in the comics is different from Shannen's—to prevent future lawsuits towards Zenescope Entertainment.
* In 2007, AOL named Prue the 10th greatest witch in TV witch history and her sister Piper was number 1.
* Shannen Doherty admitted on Twitter that her favorite episode in Charmed was her last one.
* Holly Marie Combs tweeted that Aaron Spelling had another lady in mind for the role of Prue. She also said that they wanted Shannen Doherty to read for Piper.
* Brad Kern stated that it was Shannen's idea to have Prue develop fighting skills.
* There is still speculation on why Shannen left the role of *Prue*.
* Interestingly, at roughly the same point in both the alternate timeline seen during Morality Bites and the real one seen in the Zenescope season 9 comics, Prue is a blonde.
* Prue was the only sister who was never seen as an old woman on the show. Piper was seen in Forever Charmed, Phoebe in The Three Faces of Phoebe, and Paige in Charrrmed!.
* Prue is the main antagonist in Season 10.
* Despite having no part to play in the Charmed novels after *Beware What You Wish*, Prue appeared as an illusion in *House of Shards*.
* Prue's counterpart in the reboot series is Macy Vaughn, a combined version with herself and Paige. She was raised by her father and is starting to work as a geneticist at the local university of Hilltowne when she met her sisters. Like Prue, her Wiccan power is telekinesis. However, due to having demon blood in her system, she also became a Demon-Witch with powers of the Evil Eye and Pyrokinesis. Also like Prue, she is very intelligent, having a PhD in bioengineering.
	+ They both died at the end of season 3.

* Prue is the only one out of the four sisters that does not have brown eyes, having green eyes instead. Her brother in law Leo Wyatt and nephew Chris Halliwell are the only other members of the family with green eyes.
* For almost 20 years, Prue could never say *I love you* as they were the last words she spoke to her mother before she was killed.
* Prue met Paige for the first time in the comic "The Heavens Can Wait".
* Since her death, Prue has been mentioned in every season.
* Prue promised Piper before her wedding that she would stop anybody that tried to ruin the ceremony. Ironically, it was Prue *(in her astral form)* who ruined Piper's wedding.
* Prue died when she pushed Dr. Griffiths out of the way, if she had moved him telekinetically or had not bothered with him at all, she would more than likely have survived the attack.
* Prue broke her ankle at the age of 7.
* Her past life is P. Bowen.
* Phoebe taught Prue how to French kiss.
* Piper gave Prue chickenpox as a child.
* Prue has a fondness for Twizzlers.
* According to one of her ex-boyfriends, Jack Sheridan, she uses the *Must de Cartier* perfume.
* She can't stand when people talk at the previews.
* She argues to win.
* Prue picks her cuticles when she's nervous.
* Piper and Prue went to *Duran Duran* together and Prue stretched her leg warmers so she gave them to Phoebe.
* Prue was a cheerleader and class president in high school.
* Prue's astrological sign is Scorpio. Her ancestor, Melinda Warren, was also a Scorpio, having been born on October 31, 1670.
* Both Prue and her mom were killed by elemental demons; Prue by Shax, a demon who uses wind, and her mother by the Water Demon, which obviously kills with water.
* In the episode P3 H2O, Prue expresses her fears of being compared to her mother. Scared that her life seemed to be following the same pattern as her mother's and terrified one of the many similarities between the two would be that she will die young. Ironically, these fears were totally justified as she was killed by Shax a year later.
* Both Prue and Phoebe's names came from their ancestors.
* Prue shares many traits with her future nephew Chris. Both have dark hair, green eyes, and share the power of telekinesis. They were born in October, and have similar personalities: both are serious, business-like, stubborn, and care greatly for their family's well-being. Also, they both have encountered the Angel of Death sometime before their deaths.
* In season 3, Prue consistently displayed incredible martial-arts skills that could rival, if not surpass, those of her sister Phoebe's. Examples of such instances are when she fought against demons like Vinceres, the Seekers, Tarkin, the Wrestlers, and the stalker Abbey. She also displayed gun slinging skills. It was never made known as to how or why she was such a formidable combatant, and the only theory seems to be that she had taken up the study of combat during her schooling years, and choose to employ them only after she became more confident and skilled in using her powers.
* Prue is the only sister that has never received any Whitelighter powers. However, she did receive Darklighter abilities, when she switched powers with Alec. She did get Whitelighter powers in the comics because of the magic switch and Prue getting all of her sisters' powers, including Paige's Whitelighter powers.
* After her death, Piper inherited her golden necklace.
* Even in death, Prue has influenced some of the most important points of the show:
	+ Changing the spell to summon her to find Paige and repair the Power of Three, as well as fueling her sisters' determination to defeat the Source once and for all.
	+ Her sisters using the knowledge of Astral Projection she had left to draw Zankou away.
	+ The struggling battle of the Charmed Ones against the Ultimate Power due to her lingering connection holding her sisters back.
	+ Responsible for her sisters' powers advancing to higher levels by taking over Patience's body.
	+ Accidentally aiding in Rennek's plan to destroy the Power of Three to get to Leo.
	+ Becoming the All and the conduit of all magic.
	+ Unintentionally hurting her sisters and their children with her presence.
	+ Merging with Old One Heremus and becoming the greatest threat to the world.

"*You name it—I can identify it*"
—Prue summaries her expertise.[src]

Prue had graduated with honors from Gold State University, and proved to be an expert at the jobs she applied, showing herself to be an accomplished and skillful woman, not only in the magical world, but also in the mortal world. Given how she later demonstrated expert martial-arts skills that surpassed even those of her sister, Phoebe (who was the only Charmed One shown on screen to have taken self-defense classes), it is also possible that she had taken up the study of martial arts in her school years, and hence emerged as an extremely effective combatant.

* **American Museum of Natural History:** Prue had been working at the Museum of Natural History in San Francisco since college. In fact, it was there that she met Roger, her boss who later became her fiance. After she found out that Roger was coming onto Phoebe, and was not the man that she thought he was, she resigned, and even unintentionally used her newfound powers on Roger when he provoked her. It was also mentioned that he had, apparently, trash-talked her, in hopes that it would prevent her from getting a new job.
* **Buckland Auction House:** One week after she resigned from the Museum, Prue received a call from Buckland Auction House to interview for an ancient artifacts expert's job. Prue noted that her areas of expertise are dated from the Ming dynasty to a Mark McGwire rookie baseball card. However, the auction house was infiltrated by two demons named Rex Buckland and Hannah Webster, who were plotting to kill the Charmed Ones; after vanquishing them, Prue continued to work there. Also, it was at the auction house that she first discovered the use of her astral projection powers. She decided to quit working there after a dishonest new boss took over, and Prue disagreed with his way of working. Thus also ending her relationship with Jack Sheridan.

* **415 Magazine:** Ever since Prue was a child, she had wanted to become a professional photojournalist by the inspiration of a man named Finley Beck. After a year and a half at the auction house, she quit and used her subsequent free time to figure what she really wanted to do. Prue soon fulfilled her childhood dream when she was hired by 415 Magazine, where she quickly became one of their top photographers before she died.
* **Salem Witch House:** As of Season 9, in her new body Prue worked as a tour guide in Salem at the Salem Witch House.

* **Antique Specialist:** Prue was knowledgeable in antiques from ancient archeology to a Yankee baseball card. She can examine an artifact and easily recognize it either as a real object or a fake.
* **Fluency in Latin:** Prue was fluent in the Latin language as she was able to decipher spells and quote many texts.
* **Expert Hand-to-Hand Combatant:** Though it was not shown or revealed during her early years as a witch, Prue was formidably skilled in hand-to-hand combat, which came into play during her fights against Vinceres and, later, the Demonic Wrestlers, where she was shown to use her telekinetic powers to enhance her combat skills. Given how she was never shown taking martial-arts classes on screen, and yet her combat skills were revealed to be far superior to those of Phoebe's (the only sister shown to have taken self-defense classes), it is likely that Prue had actually taken up martial-arts long before she became a Charmed One, but only applied her combat skills once she had become fully comfortable with her powers.

## Personality

As the oldest sister, Prue saw herself as the maternal figure of the household, especially after her mother died and her father left. In fact, Piper and Phoebe once agreed that Prue had actually sacrificed her own childhood to help raise them, which made her become responsible and determined, but also caused her to develop a sense of caution as well as a dislike of surprises that made her slow to trust people. Hence, though she admired Phoebe's confidence and courage, their relationship was often a tumultuous one. In fact, it was always up to Piper to mediate between Prue and Phoebe, and it took their Charmed destiny for the oldest and younger Halliwell sisters to heal their rift.

Prue was also the type of person who held onto grudges for a long time: for many years, she refused to forgive her father for abandoning her and her sisters when they were young, and she never trusted Cole fully even after he saved their lives on more than one occasion. However, when Prue came to understand the difficulties Victor encountered due to his being the only mortal in a family of witches, their relationship became more amiable, and despite her lack of trust in Cole, she was able to effectively put aside her personal feelings to work together with him in times of utter crisis. Such instances testify that, though she might come across as unfair and harsh towards those she deemed untrustworthy, Prue was still ultimately a reasonable and flexible person.

At first, Prue's duty as a Charmed One was a burden for her professional life, but she eventually started taking the initiative in hunting evil. At one point, this determination of hers even progressed into an obsession - she believed that a break-in was the work of demons, and disregarded the idea of a human culprit. According to Piper, Prue was known for saying "*The Charmed Ones come first*" when she was alive, and was always risking her life in the fight against evil. While her dedication to the good fight could be compared to Phoebe's passion for witchcraft, it still had a downside: after her death in Shax's hands, Prue's spirit was unable to completely ingratiate itself into the afterlife, as her dedication caused her to unconsciously cling to the Charmed prophecy with a fervor. This, in turn, prevented her sisters' powers from advancing further, making the Charmed Ones vulnerable to threats that should never have been able to stand against them in the first place.

Even after her resurrection in a new body, it was evident that the combination of Prue's dedication to the fight and her death had a dramatic impact on her psyche - after officially giving up her place in the Charmed circle to Paige, she demonstrated a lost, floundering side that was a far cry from the confident determined woman she had previously been, for she had grown to view herself as a "*washed-out witch*" who would never get her own "*happily ever after*". It took both Cole and later Piper to snap her out of her turmoil, reminding her that she was always at her very best when she was with her sisters, and come what may, her family loved her dearly and would always need her. During her final confrontation with her sisters while she was under Heremus' influence, Prue revealed that she actually harbored an untold deal of bitterness and sorrow over her death in Shax's hands, and her subsequent inability to allow herself to move on.

One constant feature about Prue would be her love for her sisters: having acted as a surrogate mother to them at a young age, she was intensely protective of them, to the extent where she would put herself in harm's way or even harm innocents with her powers to save them. After her death, it was revealed that she had actually sorted out her last will and testament in advance for her sisters' sake. Later on, when she was presented with the opportunity to regain her former position in the Power of Three, Prue choose to strip herself of her powers in order for Paige regain her status as a Charmed One, explaining that it was her job to keep her youngest sister from making regrettable mistakes. Ultimately, Prue's love for her sisters was what saved them and the world in general - it gave her the strength to release the negative feelings she had developed from her death, and to restrain Heremus long enough for Piper to deliver the finishing blow.

## Physical Appearance

The only major changes in Prue's appearance involved her hair. Although towards Season 3 her fashion sense becomes more risque and revealing.

* **Hair:** At the beginning of Season 1, it was a very dark brown, almost black. By the start of Season 2, however, it had become slightly lighter (roughly the same shade she'd had when she was younger), but still noticeably darker than Piper and Phoebe's hair. Around the end of Season 2, it became darker again, then in Season 3, it became a noticeably lighter shade, sometimes with lighter tones. Originally, Prue wore her hair in a short bob, a little longer than Phoebe's. It started to grow during the middle of Season 1 until, by early Season 3, it was almost elbow length. Almost seven years after her death, Prue inhabits and takes on the appearance of a comatose witch. In this body, she has a blonde pixie cut and green eyes. After absorbing the Grimoire and the Empyreal Sword, Prue has tattoos running down her left arm that magically change of their own accord.
* **Wardrobe:** Her clothing style changes from classy professional clothing to more casual clothing over her three-season run. From season 2 onward, Prue showed a decided preference for more revealing clothes, often wearing crop tops, tube tops, and low cut blouses. When the whitelighter Natalie suggested a costume change because she deemed the Charmed Ones' fashion sense too "fearless", Prue claimed that then she would have 'nothing to wear'.

* Piper is the only sister who was never had a different hair color. Prue's hair was blond in the future during Morality Bites, and her new body as Patience has blond hair. Phoebe dyed her hair blond during season 3 and the first half of season 4. Paige's hair color changed starting season 5 and went back to brown midway through season 6.
* There is a running gag in the series that Piper always gets migraines. Some instances are when she says "I'm getting a migraine," in Pardon My Past, and even in the final television episode Forever Charmed when she visits her future and when offered cookies she says "I think I'd rather have aspirin" and later in the same episode "don't ask, you'll get a headache" to herself.

* had a job as a banker.

* **Quake:** After the death of her grandmother, Piper wanted to honor her dream and applied for a job as a chef at Quake. However, she was hired as a restaurant manager when the current chef, Chef Moore had left for a job in France. Constantly working double shifts, and having a lousy boss, Piper was unhappy with her job. A year later, Piper was reminded of her lifelong dream of owning her own restaurant by an old classmate, Joanne Hertz. Piper decided to quit and pursued her dream.

* **P3:** After quitting at Quake, Piper intended to open her own restaurant. However, the risks were too high to take and thus Piper decided to open a nightclub. With the help of her sisters, Piper opened P3 which quickly became San Francisco's hottest nightclub after Dishwalla put P3 on the map. Though the club struggled a few times, it did well overall and was the biggest source of income for the sisters. P3 became the place where the sisters would spend a relaxing night after all the demon-fighting and thus was one of the places Piper wanted to keep demon free, however, demons have been battled and vanquished there on occasion. Piper gave the club its name as a nod to the Power of Three, in honor of her and her sisters.

* **Halliwell's:** Nine years after opening P3, Piper decided to sell the nightclub and finally open the restaurant she had always dreamed of owning. Finding the right location proved to be difficult, much to the annoyance of her realtor. Finally, after visiting more than five different locations, Piper found the right place and began to get everything for the restaurant in order. The opening night of "Halliwell's," was a complete success.

* **Hair:** For her entire childhood and going into her twenties, Piper sports dark brown hair of a moderate length and bangs. She lets her hair grow and gets a slightly lighter shade. Piper continues to grow her hair and gets light brown highlights during her first pregnancy. The highlights wear off and she wears bangs again.

Piper was born on August 7, 1973, to Patty Halliwell and Victor Bennett. She was born with the Wiccan power of Molecular Immobilization. On March 24th, 1975, she was visited by her future self who, along with the future selves of her sisters, tried to unbind the bond that her mother had made with the warlock Nicholas. Against her will, she had promised him the powers of her daughters and had granted him immunity from those powers by blessing his ring.

Sometime during November 1975, Piper and her older sister Prue Halliwell welcomed their little sister Phoebe Halliwell into the world. After her birth, their grandmother, Penny, bound their powers in order to keep them safe from Nicholas. To ensure their safety and a normal childhood, Penny erased all magic-related memories, causing them to forget about magic and their abilities.

In her teen years, Piper didn't quite know where she fit in; according to Prue, she was like *Jan Brady*. Piper also felt she was ordinary compared to her sisters, Prue and Phoebe. However, Grams reassured Piper that she was special, that she was kind and caring, and the best little helper Grams had.

Piper eventually graduated from Baker High School in 1992, but didn't yet have the courage to go away to school and stayed home throughout her college career. Eventually, she graduated and became an accountant at a bank even though it was her desire to become a chef.

Club Owner. Restaurant Owner/Chef

Mark was left with his mother after his father passed away. Though he was taught the traditions and myths about ghosts and the gate keeper of hell, Yama, he never believed in any of them. He studied molecular biology at Stanford University.

Although only appearing in 3 episodes, his appearance changed a lot from when we first saw him in Season 6. In his first appearance on the show in Chris-Crossed, he had brown wavy hair that measured down to his neck. In Season 6 he would usually wear a simple T-shirt, shirt and jeans combo. He has an athletic body and he is quite tall. In his next appearance, in I Dream of Phoebe the only real difference was he got a tan and grew facial hair. The biggest change in appearance for Greg happened in Season 8. In the episode The Last Temptation of Christy, he has cut his hair short and wore it in a spiky fashion. His clothing however hasn't really changed.

* Wyatt was born 6 weeks early according to Piper.
* is an Aquarius.
* When Wyatt was born, his hair at first appeared dark brown, which, when Piper commented on, Paige replied, "What did you expect, a blond?" This is ironic as Wyatt would be blond haired (*"The Day the Magic Died"*).

**Piper**: "*How did you become such an optimist?*"
**Wyatt**: "*From you, mom.*"
— Piper and Wyatt talking
high level of awareness of his surroundings, able to understand magic and human reactions, and purposely use his powers to protect himself and to help his family, and even used his powers to vanquish demons.

As an adult, Wyatt seems to exhibit a very optimistic view of the world, a trait that he learned from his mother (something that Paige laughed at). Wyatt, like his aunt Phoebe, seems to have a problem holding back the truth such as when he accidentally revealed Coop's marriage to Phoebe in the future.

However, despite his optimistic attitude, Wyatt can be outright intimidating and aggressive when someone is threatening the people he cares about and will be merciless in battle.

The future version of Bianca seemed to act very coldly to everything, in order to not let her emotions affect her decisions. However, when she was around Chris, she was a notably warmer and caring person, a side that she normally kept hidden.

While spotted by a guard, Bianca killed him without as much as blinking, which bothered Chris. He confessed this distress by saying he sometimes forgot who she really was, hinting at her morally ambiguous nature. Bianca replied that it was before she met him, implying that he was the one who helped her become a better person. The conversation she had with her mother, further suggests that she resented the feeling of killing.

* dark hair and green eyes, born in October, serious, business-like, stubborn and cares greatly for her family's well-being, surly
* Chris often told the sisters seemingly conflicting things about the future. While these can be errors, it has also been shown that Chris lied a lot about his reasons for coming to the past, especially in the Season 5 finale and the start of Season 6.
* Chris is rather envious of his brother Wyatt, as he displayed powers from the womb, which infuriated Chris. Chris also told Piper he had an inferiority complex with Wyatt. Although in his last appearance on the show with Wyatt, it looks like the sibling rivalry has calmed down and as well as being brothers, they're best friends.
* either a Libra, or a Scorpio.
* Chris is also known to possess extensive knowledge of the Underworld acquired in the future, and even has many contacts in the Underworld, including a demon he summoned to scan for evil in Wyatt, and the demon potion maker he contacted to create the empath blocking potion he required for himself and the sisters. He may even have infiltrated the Underworld at multiple stages in his life.
* frequently visited the San Francisco Palace of Fine Arts, where he proposed to her.

## Personality

**Piper**: "*Well, that's good because your family misses you too. I mean, I don't have a lot of people to hang out with aside from my baby who doesn't really say much and then one really neurotic Whitelighter.* "
**Phoebe**: "*Yeah, how is my little buddy, Chris. Last time I saw him he wasn't in such good shape.*"
— Piper and Phoebe talking about Chris[src]
Adult Chris is kind and humorous, although somewhat neurotic. Since future Chris grew up alone and without a proper family, he becomes quite secretive and much of a loner and occasionally makes decisions that can result in more harm than good—such as when his efforts to insert himself into the Charmed Ones' life to save Wyatt nearly erased him from existence by disrupting Piper and Leo's relationship before he could be conceived—but also independent, stubborn, and smart. He also has abandonment issues concerning Leo and Piper, because Piper died when he was 14 years old and Leo never paid any attention to him, though he paid attention to his wife, his oldest son, and half the world. Even though he is not quite as experienced as a whitelighter, he possesses extensive knowledge of magic, his birthright of witchcraft, and the usage of his own powers.

He begins as an obviously manipulative, shady guy as, though his motives are good, he has to work to prevent the Charmed Ones discovering who he is. He later shifts into a hard-working, overprotective whitelighter as his secrets are slowly revealed; and finally transitions over into the lovable son just looking for a way to help and save his family, though he retains some issues, particularly with Leo. His initial actions were caused by his determination to prevent the dark future he came from; he went so far as to murder a Valkyrie, to this end, and he initially believes the ends justify the means.

Like his father and the Halliwell witches, Chris is very smart and careful with whom he works when it comes to contacting demons, and shows a stubborn side which is commented by Piper about inheriting it from his father. He is also very headstrong, and a quick learner, which is shown when he adapts to a spider demon's powers after being infected. At first, he kept everything to himself, because the future had to be kept secret, and also because of his lifetime of lacking family and living in a dark world that drove him to be independent, but slowly became more open toward others.

Chris's appearance hasn't changed that dramatically, It's changed noticeably less than his father's, Leo. Chris is tall with a slim build and greatly favors his aunt Prue in appearance, right down to the green eyes, though this is a trait he could also have inherited from his father.

* **Hair:** In his first appearance in the season 5 finale, his hair was relatively short and spiky. His hair grows progressively over season 6 with his hair length almost peaking in the middle of that season. Throughout season 6, Chris has facial hair which it most notable toward the end. He tends to shave it off between different episodes and it reappearing in the next. In his next two appearances, who has relatively light facial hair and not as much as in season 6. Also his hair goes back to the spiky and short way as he had it in his first appearance.

* **Wardrobe:** Over the time we see Chris, he is usually wearing simple clothing for his age, nothing too flashy. Throughout season 6, he is seen wearing mostly hoodies with a simple shirt and pants/jeans. He also likes to wear jackets, leather specially.

### Early Life in Dark Future

Chris was born in October 2004 to Piper Halliwell and Leo Wyatt. Chris had a slight inferiority complex toward his older, more powerful brother Wyatt. He would become jealous that Wyatt had powers from the womb. Wyatt would often pick on him. Chris, from a very young age, had a very strong relationship with his maternal grandfather, Victor Bennett. After Piper's death when Chris turned fourteen, Victor and Chris were drawn even closer. Chris also resented his father to the point of hatred, stating that Leo was there for the entire world but was never there for him.

* Phoebe was the first sister to create her own spells and also brew her own potions.
* Phoebe is the author of the most powerful spell the Charmed Ones possess.
* It's mentioned several times that Phoebe's favorite story was Cinderella.

* Her favorite band is The Flaming Lips (Sam, I Am)
* In early Season 1, Phoebe would recite Power of Three spells with her eyes closed.
* Phoebe has had four magical transformations due to Cole: A Banshee, a 1950s Housewife aka Samantha Stephens of Bewitched, Queen of the Underworld, and a Mermaid.

* Phoebe's astrological sign is Scorpio, like her older sister Prue, and her ancestor Melinda Warren.
* Phoebe is one of the only witches shown on the screen to manifest her powers from the womb. Patty Halliwell had a premonition of the three sisters going to the past in *That '70s Episode* while she was pregnant with Phoebe, and also had a premonition of Piper's wedding day on the day the Phoebe was born. The other witches are Wyatt Halliwell, the unborn Source, and Melinda Warren.
* When the sisters' ancestor, Melinda Warren, looks into the future with her power of premonition through Phoebe, she tells them that she sees "many more generations of my beautiful daughters." Ironically, Phoebe is the only sister who has all girls.

* Phoebe is a huge fan of the TV series *Sex and the City*, even to the point where the 2005 episode *Malice in Wonderland* featured a myriad of references to that show and Phoebe narrating the episode in the style of Carrie. Ironically, the most famous real-life Halliwell, Geri "Ginger Spice" Halliwell, once appeared on an episode of *Sex and the City* as a character named Phoebe over two years before *Malice in Wonderland*.
* Her hair and clothing styles change the most out of all the Charmed Ones.

* In *Once Upon a Time*, a brief glimpse of Phoebe's personal/legal records is shown while Cole was reading them in order to try and pretend that they have common interests. This revealed several snippets of personal information about Phoebe, including:

* Her favorite film is *Kill It Before It Dies* (which is a key point in *Chick Flick*).
* Her favorite artwork is "The Birth Of Venus" by Sandro Botticelli
* Her favorite book is *Sense & Sensibility* by Jane Austen
* Her favorite song is "Bittersweet Symphony" by The Verve

* Characters underestimating Phoebe's powers is a recurring theme in the show. The Source of All Evil once remarked that her powers were "hardly worth taking", Ms. Hellfire wrote her powers as "negligible" in her notes and Mitzy Stillman was disappointed to learn that she'd get Phoebe's powers instead of Paige's. Phoebe herself was insecure about not having an active power early in the show.
* In Season 3's *Once Upon A Time*, it was shown that she shared an "imaginary friend" with her sisters, called Lily, who later turned out to be a Fairy.
* In an alternate reality created by Lord Dyson to kill Lady Godiva, Phoebe was married to Leslie St. Claire and had an unspecified number of children with him.
* All of Phoebe's powers manifested in the first episode of a season. Her premonition ability manifested in *Something Wicca This Way Comes* (the first episode of Season One). Her levitation power manifested in *The Honeymoon's Over* (the first episode of Season Three) and her empathic ability manifested in *Valhalley of the Dolls, Part 1* (the first episode of Season Six). She also received her power of Psychic Reflection in the second volume of the Season 9 comics.
* Ariel the Little Mermaid's appearance was based on Alyssa Milano, who was 16 at the time. Alyssa later played a mermaid on the show.
* Vegetarian.
* Phoebe's counterpart in the reboot series is Maggie Vera, who is a college freshman with the power of telepathy. She is the only sister to have a different power but still requires physical touch to be effective. Two other similarities are Maggie's major in psychology and her relationship with half-demon, Parker Caine.
	+ In season two, she lost her powers and gained the ability of foresight.
	+ Joey Falco the showrunner of Season 4 revealed in an Interview that Phoebe was supposed to appear at the end of Season 1 in order to launch a Charmed Multiverse, but The CW rejected the idea at the time.
	+ This idea was later revisited in Season 4 of the reboot when a Whitelighter from the Halliwell's universe reached out to Vera-Danso Charmed Ones' universe for help. They were brought to an interdimensional space shaped like a video store, which was heavily hinted to have been created by Phoebe herself (described as a "Charmed One with incredible powers of Premonition").
* Scorpio.

* **New York:** Phoebe worked multiple jobs while she was living in New York. She mentioned having worked as a bartender for a short while. Later, Piper told Prue that Phoebe worked at the Rainbow Room as a hostess where she met Clay. Sometime later, she started working at the Chelsea Piers. It was later mentioned that she worked as a bartender for a short while.

* **Unemployed:** Phoebe comes back to San Francisco in 1998 completely broke, owning scarcely more than the clothes on her back, a bicycle, and an umbrella, hoping to move back into the Halliwell Manor (which at the time was under the residence of Prue and Piper) that had been willed to them by their Grams.

* **Hotel Neptune:** On the day of Prue's birthday, Phoebe wishes to get Prue a really good birthday present but had no money. So seeing an advertisement in the paper for a hotel psychic she briefly worked as a fortune-teller called "The Amazing Phoebe" at a hotel but gave it up after she'd earned enough money to buy Prue's present.

* **Buckland Auction House:** Phoebe takes on the job as Prue's assistant at Buckland Auction House however she gives up the job by the end of the episode as she didn't really feel that she could handle the number of premonitions of the past she would get from all the antique objects at the auction house.

* **SWA Properties:** Phoebe was then hired as a secretary at SWA Properties. Her new boss, having an affair with another man, instructed Phoebe to lie to her husband if he were to call or visit. Unable to lie, she quit her job to keep her self-respect.

Was always restless. Intense combat training, moves quickly and easily, agile. Taekwondo, effective hand-to-hand fighter. Wrote a New York Best-Seller. Author. B.A. in Psychology, steady and successful job as an advice columnist for a newspaper, somewhat of a celebrity with the general public for her extremely real and insightful advice, popular, she has all the answers, heart and soul.

In the beginning, Phoebe was first introduced as a free-spirited, rebellious, and open-minded young woman who helped her older sisters embrace their Charmed destiny. She was also unafraid to try new things and dared to be different from the vast majority of others, though it often put her at odds with her oldest sister, Prue, who once confessed that she had always admired Phoebe's confidence and courage, but also saw her as utterly irresponsible because of those traits.

One constant feature about Phoebe would be her creative mind as well as her excellent memory, which led her to become the best spell-caster out of the four sisters. She is also quick-witted and resourceful, knowing how to pick locks and pockets and change the tires of a car. Even Piper once commented that she would never have the kind of "*street-smarts*" that Phoebe possessed. Besides this, due to her powers and her degree in psychology, Phoebe is sensitive and compassionate towards others and is capable of giving sound advice to her sisters and, later, the readers of her column as well.

Another prominent trait of Phoebe is her dedication to the Craft: out of the four sisters, Phoebe was often the most passionate about magic and saw her unique heritage as something that truly distinguished herself and her sisters from others. In fact, her enthusiasm was a prominent contribution to Prue's and Piper's acceptance of their Charmed destiny, and whenever her older sisters were tempted to give up their magic, Phoebe was always the most vocal in objections, and never failed to remind them both of all the good the three were able to accomplish through their powers. However, her passion for magic also had a downside: she frequently found it hard to abide by the basic Wiccan rule that magic was not meant to be used for personal gain, which led to her being stripped of her active powers when she excessively exploited them.

Besides this, due to her being the only Charmed One to be born in the Halliwell Manor (above the Nexus), Phoebe was more susceptible to being influenced by evil than her sisters. This susceptibility, coupled with her impulsiveness, once led her into becoming the Queen of the Underworld, and though she ultimately returned to the Charmed fold, it still left her with emotional scars that prevented her from finding love. Hence, when a series of events caused her to re-encounter Cole years after his supposed permanent vanquish, she lashed out at him despite his having turned over a new leaf, for she had grown to hate him as much as she loved him due to their previous tumultuous romance.

Despite her flaws, it must still be noted that Phoebe was always fiercely loyal to her loved ones (a Warren trait). Even after she supposedly turned against her sisters by becoming the Queen of the Underworld, Phoebe still cared for them, and part of why she ended up choosing them over Cole was the realization that, despite her betrayal, her sisters still respected her choices, and did not try to use magic to change her mind (which Cole failed to do so). This shows that, though she was willing to make great sacrifices for love, there were still lines that Phoebe would not cross, and she had heartfelt respect for the basic concept of one's free will.

She was also able to turn the loss of her active powers into somewhat of a valuable life-lesson instead of a punishment - she established herself as still being a powerful force to be reckoned with through what magical skills she retained, such as her common sense, her formidable spell-casting talent, and even her potion-brewing abilities. After she regained all of her former powers, and they even advanced to enable her to access new abilities, Phoebe demonstrated a new sense of care and caution that she never had previously, showing that she had truly matured from her experiences, and had grown to be more mindful of the possible consequences stemming from using magic recklessly. Last but not least, Phoebe showed herself to be a woman who was willing to accept responsibility for her previous mistakes - despite her initial hostility towards Cole when she re-encountered him after she had heard his heartfelt apologies, she acknowledged that she was also to blame for how their romance ended in tragedy, and the two came to true reconciliation.

* **Hair:** In her early twenties she has a bob hairstyle and she often wears it free-flowing. She also went blond for a short while, and later darkens the color to a sandy brown. She then cuts her hair to a moderate length and returns it back to a dark brown color, wearing it with bangs or a tiny fringe. She lets her hair grow and returned to a brunette color with layers a few months later, wearing it up in hairnets on a few occasions. Phoebe then cuts her hair to a pixie cut, then lets her hair grow out and has it in curls and ponytails more often and seems to have darkened it. She grew it long again and lightened the color once more.

* **Aliases:** As the alias *Julie Bennett*, Phoebe has long, dark brown/black hair with loose curls.
* **Wardrobe:** Her fashion sense changes considerably from her early to late twenties. Phoebe started to wear very fashionable clothing. She also favors black dresses when going out. For a while, she wore a lot of skimpy clothes but returned to wearing less revealing outfits, developing a fondness for ethnic designs and patterns.
* **Make-up:** Phoebe normally wears natural colors and sometimes displays dark shades. On occasion, she will wear pinks and sometimes wear a more dramatic look to her eyes than before. Later on, she wears a far more natural look with considerably more blush and rarely a nice plum color.

Never really knew her mother. Born November 2nd. Waist-length wavy hair in a slightly darker hue.

Phoebe was a good student, and once earned an award for Student of the Month but became somewhat of a juvenile delinquent in her teenage years by causing trouble around her school and even engaging in shoplifting. This change of character was often credited to the fact that Grams had tried to often control her, which led to dedicate herself to rebellion out of spite. However, Piper believed her acting out was due to her unhappiness over her lack of a true mother. She was given the nickname "Freebie" in high school after making out with her old boyfriend in the principal's office.

A strict but professional businessman, not unfeeling, caring and loving gentleman, trustworthy person, protects people's secrets. Handsome, brown hair, blue eyes, lanky physique, business-colored shirts, dark sweaters, blue jeans. Businesswoman, owner of a newspaper, winery owner. Very sensitive to bad language, chivalrous towards women, becoming especially angry when they are disrespected. Enjoys the freedom of getting to create her own actions.

She is Italian, a plumber's daughter, and a housewife who (unlike Megan) affects visible displays of her Catholicism (wearing a Catholic crucifix and displaying Catholic icons in her bedroom), while her husband is implied to be Jewish. Sylvia is strong-willed, unhappy, and intelligent, and like Don expresses interest in ending their liaison eventually. She is also friendly with Megan; this relationship significantly contributes to her ending her affair with Don, after she dreams that he died in a plane crash and she had to comfort Megan at the funeral. Don is heartbroken after Sylvia breaks it off, but she reminds him that he was happy with Megan once and can be so again. Nevertheless, Don becomes obsessed with Sylvia and of thinking of ways to get her back. In "The Crash" (Season 6, episode 8), while all of SCDP has been injected with a stimulant so they can work through the night to come up with work for Chevy, Don works feverishly too, but it turns out he's focused only on thinking of an inspiration to get Sylvia back, not with inspiration for Chevy. Elements of Sylvia's physical appearance (brunette hair and a facial mole) and her wearing a headwrap and kimono remind Don of his stepmother Abigail and of the maternal prostitute, Aimée Swenson, who forcibly initiated his first sexual act when he was a young teen.

Pilot with her own plane, prestigious awards, wears a wedding ring to deter people, dark brown hair and green eyes, hair almost always in an updo, glimmer in her eyes. Born July 3rd.

He borrows $100,000 from a Russian loan shark, Gennady, and is hired at a brokerage firm, where he parlays this capital into over two million dollars in just a few weeks. He also resumes his relationship with Lindy. Eddie's success leads to a meeting with finance tycoon Carl Van Loon, who tests him by seeking advice on a merger with Hank Atwood's company. After the meeting, Eddie starts experiencing hallucinations and a sense of time skipping forward. When these effects cease, 18 hours have passed which he cannot remember.

Eddie goes through Vernon's ledger and learns that everyone taking NZT-48 is either in the hospital or dead. A man in a trench coat is revealed to have been following him. Eddie meets with Melissa, who informs him that she too had been on NZT-48, and that when she attempted to stop taking it she experienced a severe mental and physical rebound effect. Gennady later catches Eddie and demands the money be paid back with interest immediately. He then discovers and ingests Eddie's NZT-48, after which he begins using Eddie as his source for the drug.

Desperate for a pill after Gennady takes his last dose on hand, he asks Lindy to retrieve his stash from her apartment. While bringing the pills to Eddie, she notices the man in the trench coat following her. She calls Eddie for help and he encourages her to take one of the pills, which empowers her to escape. Lindy says she cannot be with him while he is on the drug because it makes him a different person.

Eddie experiments with NZT-48 and learns to control his dosage, sleep schedule, and food intake to prevent side effects. He hires a laboratory in an attempt to reverse engineer NZT-48, an attorney to keep the police from investigating Vernon's death, and two bodyguards to protect him from Gennady, who is threatening him to obtain more NZT-48.

On the day of the merger, Atwood's wife informs Van Loon that Atwood has fallen into a coma. Eddie recognizes Atwood's driver as the man in the trench coat and realizes Atwood is on NZT-48. While Eddie participates in a police lineup, his attorney steals Eddie's whole supply of NZT-48 from his jacket. Soon afterward, Eddie enters withdrawal, and hurries home after Van Loon questions him about Atwood's coma. Gennady breaks into Eddie's apartment, demanding more NZT-48, but Eddie kills him and his henchmen and escapes. Eddie meets with the man in the trench coat, surmising that Atwood had employed the man to locate more NZT-48. Once Atwood dies, they recover Eddie's stash from his attorney.

A year later, Eddie has retained his wealth, published a book, and is running for the United States Senate. Van Loon visits him and reveals that he has absorbed the company that produced NZT-48 and shut down Eddie's laboratory, offering Eddie a continued supply of the drug in exchange for becoming his personal lobbyist. However, Eddie tells Van Loon that he has already perfected the drug and weaned himself off it, retaining his abilities with none of the side effects. He leaves and meets Lindy at a Chinese restaurant for lunch, where he orders in fluent Mandarin, leaving it unclear as to whether or not Eddie actually weaned himself off NZT-48, or if he bluffed Van Loon and still needs it. The latter seems to be the case, as at the beginning of the 2015 show, it is stated that he had been taking NZT every day for 4 years, which does not match up if what he said to Van Loon was true.

Extremely blue eyes, became a very successful and respected US senator for the state of New York, had wide bipartisan appeal.

* Sterling is a World War II Naval veteran, a detail that becomes particularly relevant in Season 4's "The Chrysanthemum and the Sword" when Japanese company, Honda, approaches Sterling Cooper Draper Pryce for a potential client relationship. Bert Cooper, who is a noted admirer of Japanese society, is chosen as SCDP's prominent man for the deal and the other men try to keep Roger away from the deal, as he is enraged at the concept of doing business with natives of a country whom he had been at war with, and seem unswayed by Lane Pryce's arguments that SCDP has accounts with German and Italian firms, which are also countries the US went to war with.
* It is possible that Sterling served on the USS Underhill (DE-682). Similar to Sterling's story, the Underhill was escorting a convoy in the South China Sea when it was spotted by a Japanese "Dinah" reconnaissance plane, it was then sunk shortly after by Kaiten suicide manned torpedoes. Of the 234 men onboard the Underhill only 122 survived. Unlike in Sterling's story however, the plane was not shot down in real life.

Grew up in considerable weal and status, had a German nanny, always nautically minded, sailed a yacht to Hilton Head as a young woman.

Roger's wardrobe is often mature, but his adventures into the culture of the anti-establishment, including the LSD crowd and Hollywood, have caused him at times to update to his wardrobe with casual accessories such as an ascot or sports jacket.

In "Red in the Face", Roger's war recollections of taking his ship off course suggest he was the skipper of a ship running fuel between islands; however, given his age, it is more likely that he was a junior officer in charge of the ship’s navigational watch team. Later in Season 4, however, he begins to tell Joan a story about being onboard a destroyer. For his time in the service, Roger was given a medal (which he claims he received "for drinking"), and has since harbored a hatred for the Japanese.

Following the war, Roger began to work at his father's company, where he takes a dislike to fellow veteran Freddy Rumsen, believing him to have been a "coward" in the Signal Corps. The animosity disappeared when Roger learned Rumsen was only put there after having killed a number of Germans in combat.

Greg has always come across as an alpha-male and when he doesn't succeed in a particular task, he tends to act out of an insecure place that makes him appear to be impulsive in order to reclaim his manhood.

Hailed as a genius and autodidact. Supervisory Special Agent with the BAU, FBI. October 12

## Notes

* It is unknown if Reid has epilepsy, as the subject was never brought up by any doctor or team member. Though he had at least 3 seizures, they stemmed from the trauma he sustained with the explosion and being tortured. Based on the later episodes, Reid does not seem to suffer any after-effects.
* His sidearm was a Glock 17. Since "The Angel Maker", however, he carries a Smith & Wesson Model 65 revolver with a three-inch barrel and wood-colored grips. He keeps his sidearm in an unusual appendix-carry, which was noted by a militia member, who said that the way Reid was carrying the gun, he was "just begging someone to take it off him" ("Identity").
	+ However, in "Penelope", he is briefly seen with his Glock holstered in the standard hip style, rather than his usual frontal appendix holster, despite being seen using the latter style holster earlier in the episode.
	+ "Truth or Dare" reveals he carries an ankle-holstered backup, a Smith & Wesson Model 10-5 M&P snub-nosed revolver, and has done so since the events of Season Twelve. Aside from the aforementioned trait, this gun appears to share similar traits to his S&W 65.
	+ He has also used revolvers taken from two unsubs: He took Maggie Lowe's Harrington & Richardson Model 929 and held her at gunpoint with it in "Somebody's Watching". And he later killed Tobias Hankel with his own Smith & Wesson Military & Police revolver in "Revelations".

* Despite not being able to pronounce Spanish words in "Machismo" and showing no knowledge of the Russian language in "Honor Among Thieves", it seems he is able to read in some foreign languages (although they were never specified). Over the years, he improved his Russian comprehensive skills and understands it well enough to watch a five-hour movie in the language and can speak it. ("Sense Memory", "Fate", "Rock Creek Park") He is also capable of reading in Russian now. ("Fatal")
* In "Rock Creek Park" says to get by with Yoruba (A language spoken in West Africa and most prominently Southwestern Nigeria). He understands what a woman is saying in this language.
* Like many "brainiac" types, Reid tends to ramble on when the conversation leads to a subject with which he is very familiar. This tendency is somewhat annoying to his peers and they often verbally shush him or respond to him with blank stares. This is also a trait of autism called information dumping or info dumping.
* He is the only main character to appear in the opening sequence of every episode.
* He went to public school in Las Vegas and was frequently bullied. In one incident, he was ambushed by the entire football team; they stripped him naked, tied him to a goalpost, and tormented him in front of half the school until they grew bored and left. He never spoke of it until he told Morgan in "Elephant's Memory".
* It was implied that he may have asked for extra-credit work and offered to clean classrooms for teachers (being on extra good behavior) to compensate for his father's absence and mother's mental instability. ("In Name and Blood")
* His mother was a professor of 15th-century literature and read many things to him, including some of the earliest Valentine's poems (Chaucer's Parlement of Foules, mentioned in "The Fisher King, Part 1"). Garcia's response upon hearing this was: "Hello therapy."
* His father is an attorney who works longer hours than the BAU team and has "a very sick cat".

* In Season Two, his car appeared to be a horizon blue Volvo Amazon P130 122S circa 1965 with D.C. license plate WG S654. However, in Season Ten, the car resembled a pearl-white version of the same model circa 1966 with Virginia license plate 478 591.
* He dislikes creamed spinach but likes Indian food (in one of the episodes, he tried to invite his team members to try a new Indian restaurant he found; he also invites them to an Indian restaurant in "Supply and Demand," stating that the restaurant is out of the way but has very good chicken tandoori).
* He is an avid coffee drinker. His mother thinks that is why he is so skinny. In "A Rite of Passage", he stated that if the coffee was to be cut, he'd quit the BAU (Rossi claimed, possibly jokingly, he spends at least $50 a week on it). In Season Six, he seemed to drink less coffee and instead was seen drinking green tea, likely in response to his headaches. He may have continued drinking it even after his headaches subsided since, during a personal crisis, he brought a cup of green tea to Morgan instead of coffee so it wouldn't "make him as jittery". However, by Season Twelve, he had started drinking coffee regularly again.
* He has trouble using chopsticks and says using them is like trying to forage for food with a pair of number two pencils. ("A Real Rain")
* He is good at playing cards and won over $2,000 while playing on a machine in Las Vegas, but he let a "hooker" keep his winnings. ("Memoriam")
* He is the godfather to JJ's sons Henry and Michael.
* Morgan partially named his son Hank after Reid, giving him the name "Hank Spencer Morgan" and is also his godfather.
* Reid's leg injury sustained in "Nameless, Faceless" was originally unplanned but had to be written in because of Matthew Gray Gubler's real-life severe knee injury which left him unable to walk for over four months. After the third surgery in September, Gubler started using a cane but was unable to walk normally for the next five months. As of December 2009, Gubler was once again able to walk unassisted.
* After being on crutches since the second episode of Season Five, Reid was only using one crutch in "Outfoxed" and then switched to a cane in the next episode. He continued to use it through episode "100".
* He appeared without cane or crutches in the Season Five episode "The Uncanny Valley" and again in "Risky Business".
* He has killed eight unsubs in his career: Phillip Dowd (using Hotch's Glock 26), Tobias Hankel (using Tobias's own gun after managing to steal it), Chloe Donaghy, Daniel Milworth, one member of Michael Hastings' terrorist group (with the help of Rossi and Blake), Andrew Meeks, John Bradley, and Casey Allen Pinker.
* At of the end of Season Five, Reid cut his hair, which drew initial sarcastic remarks from the other team members. ("The Internet Is Forever")
* In "The Internet Is Forever", Reid claims not to have email, although it was shown in "Cradle to Grave" that he does. Although, he may only have it at his work and not at home.
* He is afraid of the dark "because of the inherent absence of light". ("The Boogeyman")
* He loves Halloween. ("About Face" and "Devil's Night")

* He takes equal doses of Riboflavin and Magnesium, in addition to sporadic shots of B2 to prevent his headaches. This is interesting as Riboflavin is B2. ("God Complex")
* Reid's dissertation from Caltech's Department of Engineering was titled *Identifying non-obvious relationship factors using cluster weighted modeling and geographic regression*. ("Memoriam")
* Despite being skilled with playing the piano, he has never played it before, citing to Rossi that "it's essentially all math". ("Coda")

## On the Job

Reid joined the BAU at age 22 (stated in an article on his father's computer in "Memoriam"). One of his first cases was that of Brian Matloff ("Tabula Rasa"). Though he went to the FBI academy, he had trouble with just about everything that wasn't book-related, including marksmanship, physical training, and obstacle courses. In the end, they had to make special exceptions to get him into the field ("What Happens at Home").

Spencer Reid was born on October 12, 1981 to William Reid and Diana Reid. He graduated from high school at the age of twelve. In his youth, his father left him and his mother as he could no longer deal with her paranoid schizophrenia, among other things. Reid once mentioned that he was a victim of bullying in school where he was stripped naked and tied to a goalpost in front of other students. After waiting for all the other teenagers to leave, he walked home, only to find that his mother had not noticed he was so late to return because she had been having one of her schizophrenic episodes ("Elephant's Memory"). Reid grew up learning nearly everything he knows from books, with his mother (a college professor of 15th-century literature) often reading to him. Still, Reid knew that the way his mother was living wasn't healthy.

When he was eighteen, he had Diana placed in a mental institution. Until Season Twelve, she resided in that same mental institution and Reid had stated that he sent letters to Diana every day because of the guilt he felt for not visiting her. Reid is also worried about the fact that his mother's illness can be passed on genetically; he once told Morgan that "I know what it's like to be afraid of your own mind".

Reid has an eidetic memory, meaning that he can remember an exceedingly large amount of information with extraordinary detail. This, however, only definitely applies to information gathered visually (especially things he's read, as implied with the word eidetic). However, his ability to retain auditory information has been rather inconsistent, as evident when he once noted he could not remember Garcia's name ("Tabula Rasa"). Despite that, he has been able to perfectly recite speech he hears, even when it was in a completely different language of which he didn't speak a word ("Corazón").

## Personality

Reid is noted for his social awkwardness and prodigal brilliance, which draws on his analytical way of thinking and establishes him as the encyclopedic brainiac of the group. He has an affinity for words - from reading and scrutinizing texts at an astounding 20,000 words per minute (an average American adult reads text at 200–300 words per minute) and his rambling of long explanations and tangents (prompting Morgan and other team members to have to tell him to be quiet). He tends to miss social cues at times (for example, unknowingly changing the subject of a conversation).

Reid also had a hard time feeling empathy, among other emotions, until after the events of season two, stating that he could understand what the victims felt before they died to Morgan in "Fear and Loathing". Matthew Gray Gubler has also commented on the differences between Reid and similarly odd character Garcia: "She represents everything he is not, she is very tech oriented and I would like to imagine he is more like 1920s smart, books and reading etc." Reid is a technophobe and does not use either email or the new iPads. Gubler tweeted that Reid is also germaphobic.

On par with bring an eccentric genius with trouble at conforming to social behavior, the show has hinted at symptoms correlated with schizophrenia, (minor) autism, and Asperger's Syndrome, as evident by his bursts of long-winded commentary, his impressive academic history (three PhDs in Mathematics, Chemistry, and Engineering) in a short amount of time, and adverse reactions when touched by strangers. It is speculated that he may also have slight obsessive-compulsive disorder, particularly from a scene in "Out of the Light" where Morgan slightly moves an item in the home of Marcus Talbot (who suffers from it), and Reid immediately places it back to its previous spot. Despite his odd demeanor, and his family's history of mental illness, he has never been diagnosed with an official condition.

Henry Francis sure loved his checkered and sweater vests and ties. His style does not change much throughout the seasons; he wears dashing vertical print ties and distinguished white shirts that are conservative, a reflection of his political position. Betty seemed to be attracted to Henry's polished maturity, and she tailored her wardrobe to match her new husband's understated style. Henry's fashion choices were a reflection of his social class and his political expertise.rtf.

Despite Henry's initial attraction to Betty due to her beauty, he remained steadfast in his love for her and uncritical of her appearance, despite her later weight gain and dying her signature blonde locks black. As a politician, he seemed to not use his influence inappropriately. For example, when Betty got a ticked for unsafe driving and asked him to fix it, he explained that the way he fixes tickets is to pay them.

Henry was largely a calm, mature influence in Betty's life. He was very practical and did not give in to emotion. One rare occasion in which he displayed anger was that on his way to work,

Ralph and Betty joined Henry in walking over to extend courteous hellos to Don, and then went on their way to their own table. Once they walk away Don mentions to Bethany that Ralph is about to have a horrible dinner. Betty was aggravated at the mere sight of Don and spent most of the dinner glaring at Don and drinking copiously, embarrassing Henry. Later, on the way home, he told Betty that she carried too much anger towards Don, comparing the situation to that of him and his own ex-wife, saying "Hate's a strong word, Betty. I hate Nazis. I have an ex-wife. She bothers me. I don't like seeing her. I don't hate her...I'm an adult." They got into an argument, and he also wondered out-loud if he and Betty got married to quickly, which aggravates Betty, as she was six months pregnant when they met.

Henry Francis was the Director of Public Relations and Research for Nelson Rockefeller, New York's republican governor from 1959 to 1973. He met Betty Hofstadt at a party hosted by Roger Sterling and Jane Siegel. ("My Old Kentucky Home") while Betty was in the final months of pregnancy, and was immediately drawn to her. Several months later, Betty contacted Henry on the pretext of wanting his influence to help with a Junior League project she was involved in. After Henry's political maneuvering helped Betty and other housewives thwart the development project, he told Betty that he enjoyed making her happy and kissed her. ("Seven Twenty Three")

A graduate of Bowdoin College, Suzanne Farrell was formerly Sally Draper's teacher, meeting Don during a parent-teacher conference addressing Sally's misbehavior. A few months later, Don sees Suzanne jogging and offers her a lift home. Intrigued by her idealism, he pursues her romantically.

February 24,

Joan's sultry curves are to die for, and Mad Men's costume designer, Janie Bryant, definitely knows how to accentuate actress Christina Hendricks' voluptuous figure. Joan has made 14 a size that every woman covets; rather than hiding her curves, she accentuates them with sexy sheath dresses and curve hugging sweaters. In Season 4, one of Joan's most beloved outfits was the royal blue boatneck dress with giant buttons on the breast line, and her glamorous crimson party dress with two silk bows on the back. Joan knows how to dress, and is not afraid to show off. We can't take our eyes off of her!

Joan is a confident, extremely capable woman, She is a striking beauty and is willing to use her sexuality as an advantage but at the same time performs every task she does extremely well and succeeds in business only because of her intelligence and competence. In Peggy Olson's words "[Joan] and Lane basically run the place". Her organizational skills have been demonstrated throughout the office, from keeping the secretarial pool in order, to keeping track of the company's expenses. The office is essentially unable to operate without her and as a result she has the upper management's utmost respect. In the Season 2 episode Maidenform, each secretary is categorized as either 'a Marilyn [Monroe]' or 'a Jackie [Kennedy]' as a campaign for Playtex. When asked which Joan is, Paul Kinsey replies, "Well Marilyn's really a Joan, not the other way around". ("Maidenform")

**Kenneth "Ken" Cosgrove** was an account executive at the Sterling Cooper Advertising Agency. Originally from Burlington, Vermont, Ken attended Columbia University. Starting out as a hobby during high school, Ken was also a writer of fiction. He was married to Cynthia Baxter, whom he met while trying to get published as she worked in the publishing industry.

Ken's short story "Tapping a Maple on a Cold Vermont Morning" was published in the prestigious journal *Atlantic Monthly*, much to the chagrin of jealous colleagues Paul Kinsey and Pete Campbell. Pete, in particular, felt extremely competitive with Cosgrove though Cosgrove didn't seem to notice, as Cosgrove took great enjoyment from his writing but was oblivious to the rivalry others felt towards him. ("5G") Another coworker who took an interest in Ken's writing was Salvatore Romano, who appears to have developed a crush on Ken and invited him to dinner. Ken, however, was oblivious to Sal's attentions.

Harry Crane discovered that Ken made significantly more than him, spurring Harry to carve out a role for himself as head of the newly created television department.

In 1963, Ken and Pete were pitted against each other for the same job of accounts director. Ken, projecting an aura of quiet confidence, competence, effortless meeting of client needs, showed himself to understand the clients better than Pete, and was promoted, upsetting Pete to such a degree that Pete considered quitting. When Don Draper, Bertram Cooper, Lane Pryce, and Roger Sterling left Sterling Cooper for Sterling Cooper Draper Pryce, Ken was not asked to join them, finding out about the departure upon his return to work the Monday after they left the firm. ("Shut the Door. Have a Seat")

Ken continued to surreptitiously write science fiction while employed at SCDP, under the alias Ben Hargrove, writing such stories as "The Punishment of X-4" for science-fiction magazines. The stories were sometimes thinly veiled allegories relating to events happening at SCDP. His secret is accidentally exposed at a dinner party at the Campbell household. Pete, still feeling a rivalry with Ken for his literary success, tells the senior partners about Ken's extracurricular activities, leading them to tell him in no uncertain terms that he would have to give up his writing as the time and energy spent on it might take time away from his duties at SCDP. Ken, having finally begun to understand Pete Campbell's malignant attitude towards him, started writing again under a new alias, Dave Algonquin. ("Signal 30")

Ken ends up being given the high prestige, high profile Chevy account, and moves to Detroit to manage the account. While there, the auto executives engage in high risk, high excitement behavior such as forcing Ken to drive very fast while they cover his eyes so he cannot see, resulting in an accident where Ken is badly injured. Later one of the auto executives shoots Ken in the face when they are out hunting, leading to Ken losing an eye. After this experience, Ken decides to stop working for the Chevy account.

Shortly after SCDP becomes a subsidiary of McCann Erickson, Ken's wife Cynthia urges Ken to quit his job as they now have the money to live without it, and devote himself to writing full time. Ken thinks about it and seems to be leaning towards leaving advertising entirely. However, this plan is derailed when he ends up being abruptly fired by Roger and Ferg following McCann Erickson's purchase of 51% of Sterling Cooper & Partners. The firing is due to Ferguson's anger at Ken for what he saw as a betrayal after Ken left McCann and badmouthed it. The dismissal leads Ken to decide to continue working: he takes over his father-in-law's position at Dow Chemicals, an important client of SC&P, where he will now be in the position to control the hiring and firing of the SCDP account, and give them what he promises will be a difficult time maintaining their account with Dow, out of rage. ("Severance")

Ginsberg in his interview struck her as abrasive and bizarre. Later in his follow-up with Don Draper, however, he toned down his eccentric manner and was welcomed to the agency. He was as of January 1967 the only Jewish copywriter in SCDP and possibly the only Jewish employee, except for someone seen once in 1960 working in the mailroom.

According to the story he related to Peggy in the episode "Far Away Places", Michael was born in a concentration camp during the Holocaust. He was taken to a Swedish orphanage where his foster father, Morris Ginsberg, adopted him when he was 5 years old. Ginsberg lived with him in New York City.

Ginsberg quickly established himself as a talented and ambitious copywriter, and was seen leading the presentation for Butler Footwear in "Mystery Date", using Don's idea as decided upon by Don. After the Butler Footwear representatives had agreed to the idea from the presentation, Ginsberg then told them his idea (which Don had already rejected because he found it "too dark"). The client then picked the rejected idea, which infuriated Don and almost got Ginsberg fired, though Ginsberg, with his low ability to discern social cues, did not notice. In "Lady Lazarus", Ginsberg was seen pitching another successful idea to Chevalier Blanc. Roger, who was chasing the Manischewitz account, approached him for ideas and implied that he would get the account if the client signed on.

## Trivia

* While listening to Roger Sterling's tapes for his book, it was revealed to Don and Peggy that Cooper had his testicles removed in an orchiectomy by Dr. Lyle Evans due to a diagnosis of cancer, which turned out to be incorrect. Cooper's testicle removal underlines his growing impotency or his seemingly diminishing contributions to the firm. ("The Suitcase")
* He was fond of modern art and had an original Mark Rothko painting in his office, which would be worth millions of dollars in the future.
* He had a famous Japanese print on his office wall, "The Dream of the Fisherman's Wife" by Katsushika Hokusai, created in 1814, which features a woman ama diver having sex with 2 octopuses. After he died, Roger Sterling took possession of the print, and he later gave it to Peggy Olsen, who hung it up in her office at McCann Erickson.

## Clothing/Fashion Style

Bertram Cooper is the sage of Sterling Cooper. He is fond of argyle and bow ties. His fashion speaks of man who is delicate, eccentric, and prefers to be comfortable without being sloppy. Bert Cooper is fascinated by Japanese culture, which shows up in his office decor, but he only adds the cultural influence to his attire when wearing a kimono at home. He is almost never seen with shoes, but that is likely due to his respect for the Japanese custom of removing one's shoes in the home (though shoe removal is seldom the practice in the workplace).

Never without a bow tie, Bertram Cooper (d. July 20, 1969) was one of the founders of Sterling Cooper in 1923 along with Roger Sterling, Sr. He later became a founding partner of Sterling Cooper Draper Pryce before his death on July 20th, 1969. Bert Cooper was an avid collector of Japanese art and architecture as reflected in the decor of his office. Cooper rarely wore shoes indoors and insisted that all visitors to his office remove their shoes. ("Ladies Room")

## Sterling Cooper

Cooper's eccentric nature sometimes masked his crafty, cunning side. When Pete Campbell attempted to blackmail Don Draper about his past, Cooper cleverly eliminated the problem by claiming that he did not care. ("The Wheel")

Lane was born in the UK and raised in a strict London household. Not much was known about Lane's mother, although Lane recalled his father to be a stern, unforgiving man. During World War 2, Lane joined the British Army, where he was given a job as a supply officer, and was responsible for ensuring rapid resupply of deployed forces. Although Lane never served in combat himself, in his later years he was thanked when meeting a fellow Englishman who was a combat veteran, remarking to Lane that his work helped ensured British victory in that war and that no matter which job a soldier had; "England expects every man to do his duty".

After World War 2, Lane's military career ended and he went to accounting school. He later landed a job at Puttnam, Powell, and Lowe, where he eventually became their go-to man for handling recent mergers and takeovers. During his career with PPL, Lane married a British woman named Rebecca, and the marriage produced one son. PPL later assigned Pryce to the United States to oversee financial operations at the newly-acquired Sterling Cooper, which Lane performed extremely well, despite turmoil at a personal level with the relocation to New York from London and his wife's unhappiness with the move. After the planned sale of Sterling Cooper and PPL to McCann Erickson, Lane learned that he would be unceremoniously transferred to India, with no attention paid to the personal inconvenience, and no recognition of the great job he had performed for the company. Resenting this treatment and not wanting to uproot his family yet again, Lane joined up with the Sterling Cooper senior partners in their scheme to form their own company rather than be absorbed into McCann Erickson. Lane hit upon the great idea of firing Bert Cooper, Don Draper, and Roger Sterling in exchange for a partnership in their new firm; this would release them to form a new firm without breaching their respective PPL contracts. This act subsequently led to him being fired by Saint John Powell (which he cheerfully accepted). The four men struggled for awhile afterwards to make their new firm, Sterling Cooper Draper & Pryce, successful. Lane invested in SCDP heavily and was a partner.

Although Lane was more disciplined than his SCDP partners and less inclined to the "fast life", he did succumb to temptation. During a point when his marriage was rocky, Lane separated from his wife. He spent a wild night on the town with Don, concluding with a romp with prostitutes in Don' apartment. Later he falls in love with and dates a black woman working as a Playboy Bunny at the Playboy Club, with whom he was extremely happy. This was received poorly by his father, who beat him over the head with his walking stick and stepped on Lane's hand, only releasing his foot when Lane agreed to return to England to be reunited with Rebecca and get his house in order. Lane complied, reconciled with his wife and moved his family to New York City, though his relationship with his wife was distant and formal. He did not confide in her about their financial difficulties or his inner feelings.

Lane continued to chafe at his position in life. He engaged in subterfuge when he found a wallet with a photo of an attractive young woman in it. He called and returned the wallet, but flirted with the woman and stole her photo, keeping it in his wallet until his death. He also engaged in a great deal of longing for his colleague, Joan Harris. While they never became involved romantically, he did play an important role in her life as he advised her that if she were to agree to have sex with a Jaguar representative in exchange for his vote in support of giving SCDP their advertising account, she should ask for a 5% stake in the company rather than cash. This recommendation ended up setting Joan up financially for the rest of her life.

Although Lane was a good partner in SCDP, his financial status did not reflect his success: he eventually amassed a large amount of debt due to the combination of no bonuses for 3 years and steep living expenses. The final straw came when Lane could not afford his partnership fee for the year. To pay the fee, he liquidated part of his portfolio he had with a brokerage house back in England. This caused yet another problem for Lane; taxation, which the government in power in 1960s England had imposed oppressive capital gains tax rates. To pay off the tax collector, Lane embezzled 7,500 dollars from the firm, telling himself it was a "13 day loan", with the expectation he could cover his tracks. A good year for SCDP gave Lane the chance of a long awaited Christmas bonus. However, when the other partners announced they would forgo their bonuses to instead roll it over to Joan's pay package, Lane had checkmated himself, as he was the one who recommended Joan take a share instead of cash.

* The infinity sign is the corporate logo of Becca's company that created both A.L.I.E. and A.L.I.E. 2.0. It was adopted as the "sacred symbol" of the Grounders.
	+ The avatar adopted by A.L.I.E. was made in the image of its creator.
* Her genetic treatment turned the blood black and was the genesis of the Nightblood.
* She was posthumously the first Nightblood Commander and a martyr.

* At some point, she conducted research in her lab with a radiation chamber in an effort to find a cure for cancer.
* She created A.L.I.E. but realized that there was a fault in the coding. A.L.I.E. scared Becca when the AI stated that it intended to fix the "root problem" which was "too many people".
* Gaia mentions that Becca is buried in the Second Dawn Bunker, implying that her ashes are kept in there after she was burned alive at the stake, but A.L.I.E. 2.0 managed to "crawl out of the flames", like it said in the notebook.
* Her company designed most of the technology on the space stations that made up the Ark. Subsequently, most of the technology that the Sky People and the people of Alpha have, originates from Becca.
* She owned a news network called "Infinity News".
* Her last name is only given three times: once spelled with a 'c' ("Franco" on a book spine in "Sanctum") and the other time with a 'k' ("Franko" on magazine cover seen in "Nevermind"). Gabriel Santiago mentions it in "The Garden" when talking about the Memory Drives though closed captioning for the episode spells it with a 'k' instead of a 'c' like in the magazine cover. It was later confirmed that it is spelled with a 'k' by The 100 Writers Room" script to screen.
	+ The last name "Franco" on a book spine in the episode "Sanctum", could be a Pen name for Becca Franko.
* In "The Garden," Becca has a different more punk hairstyle than she is usually seen with in Doctor Colin Benson's Memory Drive recording.
* Gabriel Santiago had a massive crush on her.
* She has connections to many of the characters in the series:
	+ Mission Team Alpha members
	+ Mission Team Beta members
	+ Miles Shaw
	+ A.L.I.E.
	+ Bill Cadogan and the Second Dawn/Disciples
	+ The Grounders
	+ Clarke Griffin
	+ Many of the Sky People are also aware of her
* Callie Cadogan was a fan of her.
* She was the first human being to encounter the Judge when she stepped into its realm via the Anomaly Stone on Earth. She declined to take Judge's test, deeming that humanity was not yet ready for it.

Becca was very intelligent, creating two A.I. One of which was a neural implant, as well as the Nightblood serum. Monty Green also noted her intelligence, stating that Becca's company had designed much of the technology on the Ark.

She appeared to be kind and understanding. When A.L.I.E. ended the world, Becca was guilt-ridden. She believed her A.L.I.E. 2.0 research was necessary for human survival and was even willing to risk everyone's lives on Polaris to protect the AI. Becca subsequently told Callie Cadogan that she believed with all of her heart that the AI was the key to saving the world in the right hands but feared what it could do if it ended up in the wrong hands. Becca also appeared to be incredibly humble, reassuring Callie that the young woman seemed "more than adequate" after Callie put herself down in comparison to Becca before Becca even really knew her. Becca seemed to prefer being called by her first name rather than having any of her titles used, telling Clarke Griffin that *"Becca's fine"* when Clarke called her *Becca Pramheda* and telling the Second Dawn to call her by her first name rather than Doctor Franko.

In a Memory Drive recording, a younger Becca is shown to be fascinated by Skyring's proximity to a black hole and how it could effectively put someone in the future quickly. She was also envious of the *Eligius III* team's ability to experience this and thought little of Russell Lightbourne and his opinion of Alpha, calling Russell a pompous ass.

Following her return to Earth after the first Nuclear Apocalypse, Becca was shown to believe that the Flame as she dubbed A.L.I.E. 2.0 was her penance for Becca's role in destroying the world. Though Becca helped Bill Cadogan find a way to another world, she believed that Nightblood was the answer as it allowed them the chance to save humanity on Earth rather than abandoning the planet for an untested new one. Becca was smart enough to hide the Flame from Cadogan and to shut off the Temporal Anomaly out of fear that he would toss her through it though Cadogan later stated that he had learned some things about how the AI worked from Becca or possibly her notebook.

After seeing Judgment Day on the other side of "the final code," Becca was visibly shaken and terrified by what she had witnessed and was willing to die rather than give Cadogan the information that he wanted. Having befriended Callie Cadogan, Becca instructed her on how to use the AI and the potential power it contained, thus ensuring that it was both in safe hands and out of dangerous hands while being used to complete her work. To the end, Becca attempted to convince the Second Dawn cultists that they were making a mistake by trusting Cadogan's plan over hers and burning her at the stake, not really begging for her life as she knew it was futile but to try to convince them of the error of their ways. Its later revealed that Becca was offered the chance to take a test to determine if the human race would Transcend or be annihilated, but refused to take it.

## Physical Appearance

Becca is slender with an average build. She has a tan complexion, dark brown eyes, and black hair.

She was a genius as a child and went to Harvard University when she was ten years old. At 18 years old, she and her company began work for the Eligius Corporation and did coding and tech for them. She also developed Nightblood for the corporation and created the *Eligius III's* Memory Drives to act as recorders in case something happened to the colonization teams. After implanting one such Memory Drive into quantum physicist Doctor Colin Benson, Becca expressed envy for the adventure he would be going on and a preference for Planet Beta over Russell Lightbourne's choice of "Planet Alpha". During this time, Gabriel Santiago met Becca and developed a crush on her.

At one point during her work for Eligius, she watched the *Eligius IV* launch and this was the first time that Miles Shaw met her.

At age 26, she found a pathway to access a human mind, so she and Chris began working on the A.I. known as A.L.I.E. That same year, in 2051, she had to lock up A.L.I.E. because her answer for what was wrong with the world was "too many people". She subsequently disappeared from public view for over a year, according to a news anchor on Becca's news network called Infinity News.

A year later, on May 10, 2052, Becca was aboard Polaris, trying to perfect A.L.I.E. 2.0, when A.L.I.E. caused the Nuclear Apocalypse. Two years later, on October 1, 2054, the thirteen surviving space stations were coming together to form the Ark. However, when Commander Cole McAdams found out about A.L.I.E. 2.0, he ordered Becca to destroy it. Becca refused and instead implanted the AI within herself after giving herself Nightblood in order to survive on the radioactive Earth. Moments before Alpha Station blows up Polaris, Becca uses an escape pod to descend to Earth.

Becca landed not far from the Second Dawn Bunker in the rubble of a city which would later become Polis. She was met by several cult members wearing hazmat suits. Becca subsequently used A.L.I.E. 2.0, which she renamed the Flame, to activate the Temporal Anomaly to Bardo for Bill Cadogan, but discovered "the final code" which led to what Becca called Judgment Day, the true end of the human race. Unwilling to give up the code, Becca was burned at the stake by the cult on the orders of Cadogan to get the Flame, but she revealed the Flame's power to Callie Cadogan. Having gathered a following of her own and taken Becca's Nightblood, Callie retrieved the Flame and led her people back into the world to continue Becca's work to save the human race. After her death turned her into a martyr, Becca's legacy would live on posthumously as the First Commander with her Nightblood serum passing down through the Grounders, enabling future Grounders to wield the Flame and lead their people.

Neuroscientist

Tech Tycoon

First Commander (posthumous; martyr)

* Her favorite flowers were calla lilies. In The Face Behind the Glass, Jordan tests Priya by offering daisies, claiming they were Delilah's favorite. By "confirming" that falsehood, Priya unknowingly helps convince Jordan that the Primes were not actually one with their hosts - that the hosts were being killed.

Delilah is easy-going and sociable. She quickly warms up to Clarke's group from Earth. However, she is loyal to her people and reports everything she learned from Jordan Green to Russell Lightbourne.

## Physical Appearance

She was of African ancestry with brown skin, brown eyes and light brown hair streaked with blonde.

She was born on Sanctum to Jae and Blythe Ann Workman. She worked in their tavern as a bar maid. She was born with Nightblood, and the Primes lead her to believe she would become one with them once she reached maturity. Her family saw this as a blessing and believed that she would be an immortal God. Because the Primes take turns, she was chosen to be the next host for the Prime Priya Desai. She grows up looking forward to her Naming Day, until she meets Jordan Green and wishes she had more time.

Luna was born on Earth. Both she and her brother were born Nightbloods and, as such, were sent to Polis to be trained in combat and leadership. They were part of the same group of nine novitiates as Lexa. When the Commander died, the nine novitiates partook in the Conclave. In the first round, Luna was matched up against her brother and she killed him. Luna was then matched up against Lexa for the second round, but instead of fighting, Luna ran away from Polis. She swore off fighting, and instead chose to live with her clan off-shore and avoid violence.

Unlike most Grounders, Luna doesn't praise strength and fighting skills, neither does she support the typical Grounder motto ("*Jus drein jus daun*"). Luna leads the peaceful clan of Boat People, where they avoid the rules of war, and provide a safe haven for orphans of war and people who are done fighting. Moreover, she does not wish to be Commander because that is connected to violence.

Despite her pacifist views, Luna is a strong fighter. She claims she would have won her conclave if she hadn't fled. She killed her brother during the conclave, which may have influenced her views and her decision to flee. When necessary, Luna can still fight and kill. When several chipped Boat People tried to take control of the Clan, she killed the chipped men to protect her people.

## Physical Appearance

Luna is tall with a tan complexion, brown eyes and long brown hair with blonde highlights at the tips.

**Luna** was a recurring character in the third and fourth seasons. She was portrayed by Nadia Hilker and debuted in "Join or Die". However, Luna's character was first mentioned in Season One by Lincoln.

Luna was a Nightblood and the leader of *Floukru*. She fled her Conclave, instead deciding to make a place for those done with fighting.

*Kalliope Pramfleimkepa*. They say she was brave, strong. Legend has it when she died, even her enemies wept.

Callie was a college student until she dropped out to join a protest movement. She survived the Nuclear Apocalypse by taking shelter in the Second Dawn Bunker with her father, Bill Cadogan's cult. She became close friends with Becca Franko during the latter's short time in the bunker, and later became the first Flamekeeper after Becca begged her to protect the Flame and to find it a worthy bearer. Two years after the apocalypse, Callie defied her father and led a group of Nightbloods out of the bunker to reclaim the ground, thus giving rise to the Grounders. She is also the creator of the Grounder language, *Trigedasleng*.

Despite no indication that Callie was ever a Commander as well as the Flame's destruction, her father was still hopeful that her consciousness had been saved in the Flame. Later, when Bill entered the final test to determine the fate of the human race, the Judge took on the form of Callie because she was his greatest teacher, the source of his greatest failure, and his greatest love.

* Callie invented the language *Trigedasleng* as a child for yet unknown reasons. In order to do so, she learned Latin.

Callie Cadogan is a smart, headstrong young woman. She does not follow her father's instructions because she does not share his views but with Becca, who she has admired for years, she trusts her quickly. Callie's intelligence can be seen in the fact that she studied Latin at the age of 10 to create her own language and understood much of Becca's science despite Becca being a larger-than-life genius. According to the Judge and her father she doesn't listen, taking after her mother.

## Physical Appearance

Callie had light brown skin, brown eyes, dark brown curly hair that was half up and down.

She was born on Earth, in Baltimore, Maryland, USA to Grace and Bill Cadogan.

In 2042, Bill took Callie fishing on a pier on the ocean. Callie jumped off the pier into the water, despite her father asking her not to.

She and her mother, at one point, left the Second Dawn. She attended the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, but dropped out to join an environmentalist group known as Tree Crew.

Megan was a free spirit. Her style reflected her creativity and youth. Megan was also a chameleon of sorts. Her style morphed from professional secretary in the sixties to the hippy culture of the late sixties and then the style of the West Coast. Compared to Don Draper's eternal iconic appearance as the man in the gray/grey suit, Megan changed with the times and with her career while Don continued to sport the same aesthetic through the years.

For a sometimes humorous take on the many outfits of Megan Draper, check out Megan's outfits.

Born in Montreal, she worked as the front desk receptionist and later as Don Draper's secretary. She was strikingly pretty and attracted the attention of Peggy's artsy friends as well as Joyce Ramsay, the lesbian assistant photo editor at Life magazine, who worked several floors above SCDP, and came around to visit Peggy. ("The Rejected")

She participated in a focus group Dr. Faye conducted for Ponds Cold Cream, one of SCDP's clients, and during the focus group related the story of her evening skin care regime which consisted of splashing cool water on her face, just the way her mother did it. She admitted that she was of "French extraction." ("The Rejected")

However, unlike other fae, Agreus is practiced in the art of code-switching. He knows exactly how to fit in with humans.

* Industrialist
* Skipjack (formerly)

## Overview

Agreus Astrayon is a mysteriously wealthy faun that came to the Burgue to make a splash. He spent 5 years indentured to a foundry owner in New Freehold, before being employed as a skipjack. His job as a skipjack was to track down indentured fae who had fled. When questioned by Ezra Spurnrose on the morality of hunting down his own kind, he states "I realized a long time ago, that if I was to find my way in the world of men, I'd have to play by the rules of men."

Daughter of Simon Spurnrose, popular watch and clock maker. He was a brilliant engineer and one of the most politically progressive people of his day. He was one of the first to hire a faun to his staff. For this and other quirks, he was always considered an oddity in the Burgue. Some of these stranger traits have been passed on to Imogen and to a lesser extent, Ezra, Imogen’s brother.

**Imogen Spurnrose**, the woman of the household that Vignette is the housemaid for, leads a privileged and sheltered life due to her upbringing. All of her whims are catered to by her house staff and her brother Ezra.

Vini is slight, with short-braided brown hair and large dragonfly-like wings.

* Library steward (formerly)
* Sparrowhawk (formerly)
* Lady's maid (formerly)
* Member of the Black Raven

Vignette had as good of a childhood as one could ask for as a faerie. Growing up on a farm with her family, she had a mostly idyllic life. When she finished secondary school, she headed off to University in Tirnanoc, where she met her now lifelong friend Tourmaline. They bonded through Tourmaline’s poetry with Vignette encouraging Tourmaline to pursue greater heights with her gift.

Mid-schooling, Vignette found out that The Pact was invading her homeland and went home to help her family only to find her home burned to the ground and her family dead. Seeing no option but to help those that she could, she became a smuggler, risking her own life to save as many faeries as she could by securing them safe passage out of war-torn Tirnanoc.

An inspector of The Burgue dedicated to justice, he abhors the mistreatment of the fae on Carnival Row, and despite the constraints of a society wrought with classist oppression, Philo has made it his personal mission to ensure that justice is served to all.

According to the Haruspex's prophecy on Philo's father Absalom, whom prophesied would be destined for success, and more importantly, his unborn son would be even more successful and important. This indicates that Philo will one day become greater and more important than his father ever was.

**Weapon Proficiency**: As a war veteran, Philo is proficient with firearms, including pistols, shotguns and sniper rifles, and is an accomplished marksman.

**Master Sleuth**: Philo has become an expert detective following the war against the Pact, quickly rooting out Unseelie Jack among several patrons at a pub and tracking down the Darkasher in less than a week.

## Overview

Philo is an enigma due to being a half-faerie. His wings were cut off by Dr. Morange when he was a baby so that he could pass as a human. He grew up in an orphanage without many friends and unsure of his parentage. Though he was well cared for, his future seemed bleak.

With few options before him, Philo enlisted in the Burguish military as a sergeant of the 13th Light Dragoons, looking for a chance at a bright future. It was the most formative experience of his life, seeing The Pact's cruel attempts at exterminating the fae. From the day that the war ended, Philo has made it his mission to protect the fae in particular. After a brief stint as a constable, Philo was quickly promoted to inspector after solving a case of bombings terrorizing The Burgue.

## History

### Pre-Series

Growing up as an orphan in the Light of the Martyr Foundling Home, Philo was sometimes involved in rough incidents with other orphans. In one case, Philo was forced to help a group of humans gang up on a fae orphan, stealing his food and using it to further harass the fae boy. Before they could hurt the boy too much, Philo finally found the courage to attack the other humans and launch a staunch defense of the boy. An adult human finally intervened, forcing the bullies to run away. The adult advised Philo to always choose to do good no matter the cost. Growing up in the Home, at least one adult, the headmaster of the Home, knew of his half-fae identity.

### Affiliation

**Piety Breakspear** is the epitome of an upperclass Burguishwoman. Wife of Absalom, she is a respected entity and carries herself with composure at all times. The chiefest of her worries at the moment is her son Jonah, who besides making a poor name of the Breakspears, is putting himself in serious danger by frequenting the more seedy parts of the Burgue.

Socialite

Piety Breakspear hails from the country of Leonice, where her family was noble-born. Though because she was neither a male or first-born, she was entitled to none of her family’s land or wealth. She set off for the Burgue to marry successfully. There she found Absalom, whom the Haruspex prophesied would be destined for success, and more importantly, his unborn son would be even more successful and important. As a child, she was always very interested in the Haruspex's work and learned magic by watching her.

**Sophie Longerbane**, though the child of a politician, went in the opposite direction of Jonah - humorous, considering that their fathers are on opposite side of the aisle - and is a serious and driven person. She wants power and she knows how to get it.

Sophie Longerbane is mixed-race. Daughter of Ritter Longerbane, she has never met her mother, Neffy, daughter of a deposed queen. The only things she knows about her mother are things that she read in books. As well, because she was sequestered away in Longerbane Manor for her entire childhood, she neither has friends or the innate ability to make any.

Sophie noticed that her father's alma mater started admitting women. She’d like to start doing more with her life. Perhaps she’ll attend in the autumn. After sabbatical. Touring the Beornlands. Or down south to the Pharaonic Coast. A summer sailing amidst the sunken tombs of her ancestors. Longerbane tells his daughter that her mother was born in the embassy up the street. She couldn’t so much as spell her own name in Pharaonic. He forbids Sophie from exploring or even going to college. However, she wasn’t asking his permission. Longerbane approaches her and tells her to go and see how far she can get without him. Just then, the chancellory guards burst into his home and take him away. Later that day, Sophie's father dies due to reasons unknown to her.

Sophie Longerbane is taking her father’s place as lead of the Hardtackers until the next election. Sophie wishes to honor both her father and mother’s honor. Her mother’s desert blood was written on her face. Her forefathers fled the chaos of war in the Pharaonic Coast and came to the Burgue, where the color of their skin made them outcasts. But they eventually overcame the prejudices of that time and found a place in the city. Just as it seems that she’s in favor of the fae in the Burgue and Breakspear, she reveals that they can’t simply just welcome the fae into the Burgue. The fae are nothing like them and their differences are more than skin deep. All this unfolds as Jonah watches from above, greatly impressed with her will.

Sophie and her Critch handmaid Jenila request to be alone as the wake comes to an end. Sophie is not as heartbroken over her father’s death as she had led on. In fact, she and Jenila mock those who offered their condolences. Little do they know, Jonah Breakspear secretly watches from above. It’s not until they discover his presence that he reveals himself to them. Sophie isn’t at all what he expected. He’s surprised by her affection for Jenila despite her performance at Parliament regarding the Critch in the Burgue. Sophie reveals that was all an act. In fact, she doesn’t even like the word Critch, as it’s a slur.

As her father’s daughter, she would’ve been a fool not to give that performance. Rumor has it is that the reason Sophie’s father had her sequestered away is because she had a difficult birth and came into the world a simpleton. While Sophie’s mom did die in child birth, she is far from a simpleton. She did have a lonely childhood however. No friends, but for the volumes in her library. No amusement, but for the litany of secrets drifting from the room down the hall from hers, where the most important men in the city convene to whisper and plot. Sophie knows that her father didn’t kidnap Jonah, and she knows that he knows as well. They both suspect his mother being the actual culprit. They have much in common and Sophie would rather be friends than foes.

## History

In the height of her fame, Aisling met Absalom Breakspear. Not long after, she canceled her standing engagement at the Abbey and left because she had become pregnant with Philo, and went to go carry and deliver her baby.

## Biography

### Season one

#### Killed by the Darkasher

Aisling takes a stroll along the riverside, where she finds a flute that she briefly plays. She also finds the photo of Philo, left behind by Vignette. Unbeknownst to Aisling, a grotesque creature waits in the darkened tunnels. She can hear its monstrous footsteps approaching. She attempts to fly away, but it grabs her and drags her inside the tunnel.

Tourmaline and Vignette were assigned as roommates during freshman year of college and at first hated one another due to their vastly different upbringings. Soon though, Tourmaline saw that her and Vignette are kindred spirits and they became extremely close with hinting of a sexual romance. They still have a close friendship to this day. A large part of this has to do with Vignette’s encouragement that Tourmaline follow her passion for poetry. At present, Tourmaline is doing one of the only things faerie women are allowed to do in the Burgue - working in a brothel.

**Tourmaline Larou**, a strong-willed and tough faerie, has for a long time looked out for Vignette. And though at present she works in a whorehouse, that doesn’t make her any less capable or ready to knock the heads of anyone that messes with Vignette or any other faeries.

## Personality

Liam was a happy fellow who enjoyed spicier woman with flair.

He was a passionate man with a good temper and was thought to know what is fair and just.

At first, Nicole seems kind and innocent. However, her ambition lands her at court, with the King of France eating from the palm of her hand, and we truly get to know the depth of her cunning nature and striking cleverness.

September 19

Prince Henri was a very shy child. He never said much and seemed to fall in line with his older brother Charles. However, as he grew older, he gained confidence. By the time he reappeared in Season Four, he seemed like a completely different person. Henri displayed more leadership, resolve, and cunning than Charles, now the king of France, and quickly won over allies, among which were Lord Narcisse.

Although he never officially stated it, Henri acted as if he were the ruler of France by intervening in French politics and treating the court as if it were his own, much to the dismay of Charles and Catherine. Charles attempted to assert his authority over his younger brother, but unsuccessfully so, as Henri knew he had the backing of Spain and the love of the king's favourite, Nicole.

"*I am who I am. I want what I want. And I take what I want. If that scares you, if it repels you, then you're with the wrong man.*"

June 27

As a child, Prince Charles is a well behaved, polite young boy. He is a little shy, but given time, opens up to people he trusts. He also appears to pick up on things rather quickly.

When Charles returns to French Court in Season Three, he seems to have changed. He has turned into a reckless party-animal who has no intention of learning how to be King. However, he is soon forced to assume responsibility and grows more mature as a result. He hopes to fill the shoes of the previous king, and tries to prove himself to the privy council. He grows more independent, trying to secure his rule and stop living under his mother's thumb.

Later on, he bears witness to a traumatic death of his friend and blames himself for it. He starts to believe that he should never have become king, causing him to neglect his duties as King and sneaking out at night. Queen Catherine finds out that he is a necrophiliac, and concludes that he must be depressed and likely has PTSD. Charles eventually runs away from court and his mother later finds him in a very happy state, living in an ordinary household on the farm. His nature seems to have shifted, as did his religion. He announces that he is Protestant, claiming that Protestantism helped him find himself again and regain the will to live.

Madeleine is young but already has a bold personality. After traveling by ship alone she still acted as a perfect young lady and curtsied to the much shyer Charles. She is bold in her actions but has a small voice.

Lady Madeleine was raised with her two parents and appears to be an only child. She is well educated and comes from a rich background and is red-blooded French through and through.

pon arriving to court, Claude was quite the troublemaker who stirred the pot a lot. Claude preferred trysts and didn't react well to being told that she would be married off, although she eventually budged on the engagement to Louis of Condé. She was initially quite cold to Kenna, which stemmed from her envy of Kenna's relationship with Sebastian, but she came to acknowledge that Kenna was "rather kind to me after all".

Even after getting in a relationship with Leith, Claude maintained her streak of independence, but was now comfortable with allowing someone in and admitted that she liked having someone take care of her. She is fearless, as well as loyal and affectionate to the few dearest to her.

By covering up what she thought was a murder committed by her daughter, Catherine claimed that she always mothered Claude the most. But the two never got along, with Catherine shipping Claude away for most of her life. There, Claude was supposed to become an educated, well-cultured woman, but she threw that away in favour of patrying. She ended up growing into quite the troublemaker.

* Claude had a one-time sexual relationship with her half-brother, Sebastian, when they were teenagers.
* Had an arranged engagement to Louis of Condé.
* Had a sexual relationship with Stéphane Narcisse.
* Revealed to have romantic feelings for Leith Bayard, and soon share their first kiss.

* Briefly engaged, and married to Duke Boinel. However, it was soon annulled because of his domestic abuse. It is later revealed that Catherine bribed Duke Boinel to strike Claude so that Charles would depose of Lord Narcisse and make her regent.
* Claude and Leith are unofficially engaged, but cannot be married until Leith rises significantly in station.  He does so by saving Queen Catherine and Claude. He then receives Queen Catherine's blessing.
* Believing Leith Bayard dead, agreed to an arranged marriage to Luc Narcisse.
* In the Reign cast note, Claude was described as a 'glorious troublemaker' who lives to make her mother's life a 'living Hell'.

While that may not have made him an effective ruler, it certainly made him a feared one. When Henry went mad, he became event more feared, but it had more to do with his increasingly erratic behaviour.

Henry was quite a disloyal man, who failed to commit to women despite promising to do so and who switched allegiances whenever it suited him. Although he seemed to care for his children, he was also capable of using them as bargaining chips and frequently pitted his two eldest sons against each other.

After arriving on Bardo, Jordan discovers that the Disciples mistranslated the information in the Bardoan texts and believes that it is a test to determine the fate of the human race, not a war.

In the series finale, after humanity's transcendence, Jordan chooses to return to human form and to live out the rest of his life on Earth with his friends, so that Clarke will not be alone by herself. He is now part of Clarke's group on a regenerated Earth, which is now a habitable planet again.

During the Adjustment Protocol, Miller is dosed with the potent Blood of Sanctum in an effort to brainwash him into following the Primes, but is rescued by John Murphy and Emori. At the end of the conflict, after the effects of the toxin wear off, Miller is reunited with Jackson.

In Season Seven, after some of their friends are captured by the Disciples, Miller joins Clarke on a mission to rescue them.

## Personality

Ever since she was born, Hope was a good, happy, nice, and kind, little girl, but the separation and isolation from her mother and Octavia for ten years, and the death of her best friend, Dev, causes her to psychologically become a selfish, rude, arrogant, ruthless, and a vengeful, young woman, thus losing her own innocence and vowing revenge on the Disciples, who caused her misery. She was psychologically-scarred from these events as her soul was damaged, due to losing of her loved ones, but she was extremely strong through it all. She grew independent, fast to react and impulsive to situations. Hope was the most familiar with her surroundings, and aware of her capabilities.

Hope, at her worst, is aggressive and short-tempered. Though she can be seen to be brave, and hold true to her beliefs. She is outspoken about her values, and bases most of her decisions upon what is true to her as well as what she knows. Hope is a natural born warrior, easily navigating what’s around her and looking for the best time to strike. She is loyal to her family and very affectionate to those she loves.

The men reveal that they have the message Octavia tossed into the Anomaly and Diyoza futilely attempts to cover for her friend. Failing, Diyoza yells at Octavia to come out and save Hope at any cost. Octavia gets captured as well, but manages to hide Hope from detection. The men, the Disciples, place helmets upon Diyoza and Octavia so that they will remember everything and disappear with them through the Anomaly to Bardo. Hope later runs around shouting for her mom, but no one is answering. A few months after Octavia and Diyoza are taken, Dev, a prisoner from Bardo arrives on Skyring to serve a ten-year sentence for breaking one of the Disciples' principal laws. Dev takes care of Hope, helping to raise and train her for the day that the Disciples come back for him in ten years. However, their ambush goes wrong, resulting in Dev's death, forcing Hope to effect a rescue mission for her mother and Octavia on her own. With the help of Levitt, a Disciple scientist who befriended Octavia, Hope is able to rescue Octavia and return her to Sanctum, but is captured in the process and forced to help the Disciples recapture Octavia.

Warrior. Scout. Guard.

Lincoln was a Trikru warrior who rescued Octavia Blake. The pair develop romantic feelings, and Lincoln helped the Delinquents multiple times, causing him to be viewed as a traitor to his people. He later was captured by the Mountain Men, and forced to become a Reaper, but with Delinquents and Octavia's assistance, he was rescued and overcame his addiction to RED, the drug used to create the Reapers.

After the fall of the Mountain Men, Lincoln resided in Arkadia, because the Commander placed a kill order on his head. After Charles Pike became Arkadia's new Chancellor, Lincoln was placed into lockup, as Pike saw all Grounders as enemies to the Sky People. Pike ordered his execution, as well as Kane's and Sinclair's. Kane and Sinclair escaped, but Lincoln remained behind when Pike threatened to kill the rest of the Grounders he had locked up. Pike executed Lincoln by shooting him in the head, leaving his body behind in a puddle of mud. Octavia later returned to Arkadia and was able to give him a proper *Trikru* farewell. Lincoln was avenged when Octavia killed Pike in "Perverse Instantiation (Part 2)", after A.L.I.E.'s defeat.

She has always questioned the ways of her people. Warrior from a forest tribe. Found a badly injured man and brought food and water for three days, thought that the world has always been trying to turn her into a monster.

## Personality

Lincoln is very kind, serious and hard working. He generally speaks when spoken to, and even then, he tends to speak as little as possible, choosing to be concise and direct. He is always thinking about survival and his duties to his people, whether it be Arkadia or *Trikru*. Even under great stress, such as being tortured, finding out his village was attacked, being chased by reapers and attacked without provocation, Lincoln does not express any emotion. He rarely engages in recreation or humor of any sort, as he lets his own work dominate his life. He burdens himself with the well-being of Octavia, the Sky People and *Trikru*, and always gets involved in major political issues.

Lincoln is a non-conformist, who always questioned the ways of *Trikru* as he grew up and is willing to risk his own life to do what's right, even if it's against the traditions of his people. His non-conformist views drove him to betray *Trikru* to help the Delinquents on multiple occasions and disobeying orders in favor of morality and altruism. Being both moral and rational, he seeks peace among his own people and the Sky People in spite of previous armed conflicts that have taken place and soured relations, which shows that he is a visionary who understands what needs to be done to ensure long-term prosperity.

Lincoln is a creative problem solver who engages in thinking in the long term. One example of this is creating a plan that involved attempting to flee to the coast to escape the armed conflict between the delinquents and Woods Clan. Another notable example involves a plan to pretend to be a reaper to infiltrate Mount Weather. He frequently assists Arkadia by providing insight to predict future events related to Arkadia - Coalition relations. Lincoln carries a book, which he uses to document what he sees and make maps.

Brown eyes and a shaved head, lean muscular build and has tribal tattoos on her head, back, chest, and arms.

PTSD. Arrested for stealing herbs to make illegal drugs for herself. Served as the primary chemist.

In Season Three, Jasper became severely depressed due to Maya's death, and he developed grudges against Monty and Clarke. He made several attempts to drink himself to death, but fought against it. He later joined a resistance of Sky People, who fought the Artificial Intelligence A.L.I.E. after she took control of nearly all the Arkadians and residents of Polis. He eventually took the chip himself to try and relieve the pain of losing Maya. He was released after Clarke pulls A.L.I.E.'s kill switch.

In Season Four, Jasper was much of the same, coming moments away from committing suicide with a pistol before being interrupted. However, after learning that there was another nuclear apocalypse looming and there was very little hope for any of them to survive, he became more cheerful. He entered in a mode of disregarding his actions, believing that since they were all going to die soon anyway that he won't be around to reap the consequences. When the rest of the Sky People leave to go to the Second Dawn Bunker, Jasper decided to stay behind at Arkadia in order to die. He had one last talk with Monty before he died from overdosing on the tea that he made from the hallucinogenic Jobi Nuts, committing suicide as he begged Monty to say his last words before he dies as he watched in despair

Gunner. Chemist.

## Personality

At the start of the series, Jasper was relatively timid and reserved, rarely interacting with others besides Monty and Clarke. He is relatively adventurous and brave when given the opportunity, as shown when he jumped into a river to save Octavia from a large predatory creature that nearly killed her. His intellectual side was made very apparent from early on in the series, often assisting Monty and A.L.I.E. on various technical related objectives. At the beginning of the series, Jasper was not in any way confrontational or assertive, often complying with other peoples' requests without any protest.

However, upon witnessing the death of his first serious love, Maya, Jasper was traumatized and became depressed. To cope with her death, he resorted to alcoholism and hedonism, changing from his previously deliberating, timid demeanor. He stopped caring for the well-being of Arkadia's residents and spent much of his time goofing off and ignoring potential dangers, as evidenced when he deliberately stayed outside in the face of rain that could potentially have been acidic. Jasper also expresses apathy over the fact that humanity's survival was under threat from old nuclear reactors melting down by telling Clarke that he is simply trying to have fun as long as he can before *Praimfaya* happens.

## Physical Appearance

Jasper has brown eyes, thick dark brown hair, pale skin and a slim figure. The most notable characteristic of his apparel is the goggles he has worn since he arrived on Earth. When the 48 were taken captive by the Mountain Men his goggles went missing, but it has since been revealed that Raven was holding onto it for him. In season three and four, Jasper shaves all his hair and grows out a small beard and mustache.

## Early Life

Jasper was born on The Ark to chemist parent. He is best friends with Monty Green and did great in chemistry class. At some point before his crime, Jasper attended a Masquerade dance with his friends where he first saw Octavia Blake, who he grew a liking to.

Jasper was arrested alongside Monty after they were caught "stealing herbs".

**Monty Green** was a major character in the first, second, third, fourth and fifth seasons and a guest character in the sixth season. He was portrayed by starring cast member Christopher Larkin, and debuted in the series premiere.

Monty was part of the original 100. He was arrested along with his best friend, Jasper Jordan, for stealing herbs from the Ark garden and sent to juvenile lockup.

While on Earth, Monty struggles with Jasper's new-found heroism and suffers from the distance it puts between them. Despite their struggles as friends, the two always seem to make up. He works on establishing contact with the Ark with the help of Raven. He is the first Delinquent who is captured by Mountain Men.

While inside Mount Weather, he helps Jasper protect the remaining Delinquents by getting familiar with its security and technology to find loopholes. He eventually assists Clarke Griffin and Bellamy Blake in killing all of the surviving residents of Mount Weather by hacking into the system controlling radiation throughout the facility. His actions led to the deaths of many innocents, including Maya, greatly damaging the friendship between him and Jasper. By the end of Season Two, he is alive and at Camp Jaha, but not without the consequence of his actions.

In Season Three, Monty joins the guard unit of Arkadia, to make sure order is maintained. After Charles Pike becomes Arkadia's new Chancellor, Monty sides with him and becomes one of his most trusted allies, due to his mother becoming part of it. He later turns against Pike, after realizing that he's just a power hungry lunatic. Along with Bellamy Blake, he spies on Pike's plans against the Grounders and then they feed the information to Kane who further gives it to Octavia Blake. Monty is even forced to shoot and kill his own mother after she falls under the influence of A.L.I.E. and tries to kill Octavia.

Throughout the course of Season Four, Monty plays an essential role in providing a safe haven from the Second Nuclear Apocalypse. He is a part of the crew that went to space in order to avoid the death wave. During the next six years, he lives on the Ring and develops an algae farm that successfully sustains the rest of *Spacekru*.

In Season Five, Monty returns back to the ground and tries to convince *Wonkru* not to fight the Eligius prisoners. He shows how the hydro farm can be restored but Octavia burns it down. After Shallow Valley was bombed, he escapes with the others to *Eligius IV*. While everyone else goes into cryosleep, he and Harper stay awake and later have a son whom they name Jordan. Monty cracks the *Eligius III* mission files and sets *Eligius IV* flight path before dying of old age. His actions saved everyone and will inspire his friends.

## Personality

Monty is incredibly smart, and this is something he prides himself on. He tries to use his intellect to help others and get him and his friends out of danger. He isn't a fan of violence and appears to prefer not to get involved with conflict. He keeps to himself most of the time and seems to also prefer more intimate conversations rather than putting himself in the center of attention like Jasper. He is also incredibly loyal and devoted to those he is close to and is always trying to help keep them safe. This can, at times, lead him to be very short-sighted in his decisions.

Monty is also shown to have a lot of wit, and can be very sarcastic. He will at times quip back at others, especially people he doesn't like or trust. And he has a very strong intuition and trusts his gut when it comes to certain situations (like when Clarke goes missing, and Monty has a strong feeling they're being lied to) and particular people (as shown in his disdain for Dr. Lorelei Tsing and the Mount Weather civilians, and Maya, initially).

## Personality

Alex is known to have many walls that protect herself from being caught emotionally off guard. Amanda even has trouble getting through to the real Alex. Amanda claims that. The girl's like one of those Russian dolls; you open one version of her, only to find there's another hidden inside her." She does not talk about herself or her past much. Though when she does, she talks to Nikita and later in the season even to Amanda, or it's shown through flashbacks.

She also suffers from panic attacks due to certain things that trigger somewhat suppressed memories of her past, such as being under a car reminding her of being under her bed as she watched her family die.

Despite Alex and Nikita's closeness, she sometimes lies to Nikita to hide her true feelings. She also uses walls to suppress the fact that she is Alexandra Udinov, and claims to just be Alex, which Nikita taught her to hide away who she really is to make her more believable to Division. Though she eventually accepts that she can not hide who she is, as it's also no longer needed to hide her true self. Alex also has a hard time conveying her emotions, such as if she likes a boy. She tries not to get attached due to it having dire consequences, though she does sometimes reveal her emotional state. Sean once jokingly said "Wow, those walls you got there are tough. What do you Russians build with anyway? Field stone. Petrified potatoes?" He claims that sometimes when he's with her he can see a crack in her wall and she gives him a look that shows her pure self.

Alex also has a mature exterior, though sometimes when she opens herself up, she appears to still be an immature kid underneath, despite of everything she's been through. She also thinks that she can take care of herself and thinks she doesn't always need Nikita to help her. Alex doesn't build many bonds with men, only Michael and Sean are known to sometimes get something from Alex. However, Alex leans towards the mother figures, like Amanda and Nikita, to give her comfort and support. Despite that Amanda and Nikita are enemies, Amanda shows her way of affection to Alex.

Although Alex can for the most part control herself from not taking drugs or alcohol, she isn't allowed to take any type of drugs, such as pain pills, due to the fact that she might relapse. Therefore, if Alex gets shot, breaks an arm, or is seriously injured, she isn't allowed to take morphine or any other type of drugs that will help her. After Alex takes a bullet to the arm for Nikita, she isn't allowed to go on missions because she is still healing. Since Alex no longer has a reason to do something, it forces her to remain still and recollect her thoughts. However, Alex is not the type of person to throw down a towel and bathe in the sun. Division is her life, and it's all she knows and what she considers home. Now that she has time to think, it isn't a very good thing. Her dark past is something she rarely talks about, and some repressed memories are starting to come back to her as she has time to think about it.

As of episode 4, it appears Alex is starting to relapse into drugs; however, it is just taking pain pills that she is starting to get addicted to. She takes them after a heated argument with Sean in the medical facility, which is stocked with drugs, and because her bullet wound started to hurt. After Alex gets sick of waiting at Division and hurt after her and Sean's conversation, she tells Nikita she's going on the mission to Amanda's house with her. Nikita allows her reluctantly, which results in Alex taking a heavy beating from a man twice her size and leaving her in immense pain. When she gets back to Division she secretly takes more pills, and it appears she is slowly starting to get addicted to them. Alex most of the time plays the physical and emotional punching bag of others. She can be cool headed in one moment, then fierce and passionate in the next. She is playful and snippy with many people such as Amanda and Owen. But then she can be gravely serious and no nonsense if it is a topic that effects her emotionally.

## Abilities

Before arriving at Division as a recruit Alex learned valuable skills from Nikita, such as hand-to-hand combat, deceit and her skill with weapons. Her training at Division increased her abilities as well as giving her new skills. Alex became highly skilled to the point that she was able to take out an entire slave ring by herself. Alex currently is using her abilities to help lower the rate of Human Trafficking by her ability of talking and influencing others. Her ability to influence and persuade others helped her to persuade other agents to work together and break out of Division.

### Before Division

Alex is the daughter of the late Russian oligarch Nikolai Udinov and his wife who were murdered when Alex was a child. Nikolai owned the billion-dollar company Zetrov, which Alex was the sole heir of. She was saved by Nikita as she watched the rest of her family perish. Nikita was powerless to save Alex from anything else as she had to return to Division, and she gave Alex to one of Nikolai's associates. As a result, Alex was sold into sex slavery at very young age by her father's former associate, since he was afraid of retribution for hiding her.

To keep her from fighting against them, the slavers kept Alex with them by keeping her high and eventually forcing her to become a drug addict. For a few years, she had no choice but to stay with them to get her next fix. Nikita later finds and rescues her, as she tried years before, and forces her to become clean, but much to Alex's irritation.

Alex brings this up to Amanda, saying that the slavers "had the decency to keep [her] high" as they held her captive, comparing this to Division.

After Nikita succeeds in helping Alex past the worst part of her addiction, she starts to train her both mentally and physically to be fit to stay one step ahead of Division. It was revealed in a flashback that it was Alex's idea to infiltrate Division, and that if Alex hadn't tried to kill herself in front of Nikita, she would never have told Alex the truth about Division.

Looked like the women painted by Botticelli, oval face and eyes, thick wavy blond hair interwound with long strings of tiny pearls, fine shape of body with exquisitely molded arms and breasts. Young noblewoman from Venice known widely for her beauty and lavish parties. Oval face shimmers beneath a mantle of rippling brown hair, seems too beautiful to hurt anyone, tender-voiced, innocent imploring eyes, flawless face instantly vulnerable and warm with empathy, a mystery, too ravishing for mortal males and the envy of females. A goddess made of bleeding marble, a powerful beauty out of the deepest and most ancient soul of Roman Italy, fierce with the moral fiber of the old Senatorial class of the greatest Empire the Western world has ever known. Known as the most lonely and melancholic, surrounded by an air of mystery and sadness, only shows other emotions when she is with one person. Tall and gaunt always, high bridged nose, deep-set blue eyes, long blond hair. Beautiful, hawk nose, too prominent jaw, leanness of face with wild wavy straw-colored hair, too dep-set eyes all the more visible for it, her beautiful is the sum of her faults. Morose, despairing, soon regretted her choice, turned into a dark, indifferent cynic, troubled in some deep, fundamental way, quiet indifferent voice, stoically accepts the idea of being killed, acts withdrawn from her kin, watches music videos all day long, completely ignores her friend who dotes on her lovingly, no sense of recovery or security in her, departs alone. Named Lydia, daughter of a wealthy Roman Senator, taught to read and write, came to love poetry, especially works by Ovid.

She meets Marius, another wealthy patrician, when she is ten and he is twenty-five. Marius asks her father for permission to marry her, but is refused. Five years later, Lydia and Marius meet again at a religious festival. She begs her father to let her marry Marius, but her father refuses again.

The Roman Republic comes to an end when Augustus Caesar takes power. Lydia's family, loyal to the Republic, are killed by Primus, Lydia's treacherous brother. Lydia, the sole survivor, is taken to Antioch by a man close to her father and changes her name to Pandora. She meets Marius, who is now a vampire, twenty years after their last encounter, when she was 35.

Marius and Pandora stay together for the next two hundred years, guarding Those Who Must Be Kept, but then argue and separate. Pandora waits for six months for Marius's return before realizing that he will never come back, and settles in Moscow. Looking back, Marius regrets arguing and characterizes the breakup as being his fault entirely. Later, Pandora turns an Indian man named Arjun into a vampire to be her companion.

Mostly quiet, deplores brining death, thinks she cannot be redeemed by bringing death for someone else's purposes. Someone tried in vain to win her back, but she refused, felt her friend's strong will would keep her sane with the passing ages.

Akasha was the most beautiful vampire. Even when she was turned to stone, her skin reflected the light of the moon. Akasha had such beautiful skin that there was not a blemish present. She had very dark, nearly black lustrous eyes and cheeks that "shone like pearls." She was described as having firm shapely limbs and straight shoulders. She had black hair that was often braided in the Egyptian style and long and curly when loose. She had a high feminine voice and serene face. She was from Uruk, an ancient city that lies in modern day Iraq.

## Personality

Akasha is a selfish, empty, nihilistic person with no sense of morality or human compassion. Her actions are almost always based on her need to fill her own inner emptiness. Maharet describes her as the only true monster among them because she refuses to acknowledge her own monstrosity.

Akasha was originally from Uruk, now known as Iraq. She was born over 6,000 years ago, long before "The first pharaoh built the first pyramid." At a young age she married Enkil, the King of Kemet (which would later become Egypt). Akasha and her husband Enkil wanted their subjects to turn away from cannibalism and encouraged them to eat grains by farming. According to Marius in *The Vampire Lestat*, Akasha and her husband were not the first people in Kemet to follow this path, but they were the first rulers, and were perhaps influenced by earlier believers. Akasha became a beloved ruler for turning her people away from violence and toward peace.

Eventually Akasha became interested in supernatural spirits. She invited the twin witch sisters Maharet and Mekare to commune with the spirits, but they refused. Some time later, Akasha sends soldiers to the twins' village who happen upon their mother's funeral, preparing to perform their culture's funeral rite of consuming their mother's brain and heart. The soldiers kill everyone, save the twins, arresting them for the crime of cannibalism, and drag them to Kemet.

He fell into drunkenness and gambling, from time to time playing the piano delighting the random audience. Thanks to his beauty, he gained custody of prostitutes as well as patrons of the arts. He still felt broken, waking in foreign bedrooms and getting sick. Then he met Lestat de Lioncourt, who secured his livelihood, gave him gold, distracted from the bars and urged to play the piano, which he had bought for him and composing. They became lovers.

## Description

A peace-loving vampire, part of the Queen's Blood contingent of vampires. Made directly by Akasha. 1,000 years after the Blood Genesis or 1,000 after Akasha herself was made. To be more precise, 3,000 B.C. His fledglings include Alessandra - the old vampire that Lestat has met during his descent to the catacombs beneath Les Innocents cemetery in Paris, Benedict - a monk turned vampire from whom Magnus stole the Dark Gift, Eleni and Eugénie de Landen - made in the early Middle Ages, as well as Everard de Landen, also made in the Middle Ages. Eleni is the female fledgling who informed Lestat of their progress in the new Theatre Coven led by Armand in The Queen of the Damned. She was presumed dead due to Armand trying to extinguish the coven, as he was the leader.

In the current age Gregory is the defacto President of the Board, CEO and founder of Collingsworth Pharmaceuticals, a world conglomerate pharmaceutical and medical research company, specializing in antiviral drugs. The company headquarters are in Gregory's home city, Geneva, Switzerland, with research facilities around the world. Gregory is the most adept vampire at playing a mortal and blending in with humans in the modern era. Gregory has a fascination with global wealth and power.

Tall with dark wavy hair and dark eyes, her lifelong pessimism gave in to depression, generally enthusiastic and wildly cheerful outlook on life. Tall, darkly tanned skin, very short black hair, black eyes, compact and well-proportioned build.

Despite his cynicism, Nicolas is still convinced that the Christian teachings are correct, and he cannot understand Lestat's unwillingness to believe. He delves deeper into his cynicism as his view of the world takes a darker turn. He claims that there is no good or evil, but rather only good or bad art.

Nicolas is crucial in explaining Lestat's later fixation with Louis de Pointe du Lac, whom Lestat cites as seeming "in his cynicism and self-destructiveness the very twin of Nicolas [...] Yet Louis gained a hold over me far more powerful than Nicolas ever had". In *The Tale of the Body Thief,* Lestat refers to Nicki as his former lover, indicating that the two shared a romantic relationship as mortal men.

Well-educated, respectable middle-class family, grew up in a small town in Auvergne, France, eldest child.

Initially, Nicolas meets Lestat when they are both children and are participating in an outing to "The Witches Place", a location where witches were burned at the stake in previous years. Lestat makes an impression on Nicolas when he begins to scream and cry during the outing. The two meet again as young men, after Lestat defeats a pack of wolves plaguing the village. Nicolas, acting as a spokesperson for the town, presents him with a red velvet cloak and boots lined with the wolves' pelts.

Nicolas is intrigued by Lestat, and requests to speak to him privately so that Lestat can tell him how he achieved the impossible. Lestat is not interested until he learns from his mother that Nicolas, like him, is a rebel. He has returned to the village because he is in disgrace: he was sent to Paris to study law at the Sorbonne, but instead fell in love with the violin, abandoned his studies and sold his textbooks to take lessons from Mozart. Although he has returned to the Auvergne, Nicolas has not given up his dream and continues to play his violin at home, prompting his father to threaten to break his hands.

Lestat seeks Nicki out at the village tavern, and the two quickly become inseparable; They have long, soul-seeking talks together, which they refer to as "Our Conversation". Eventually Nicolas and Lestat run away together to Paris. They find work in a small theatre on the Boulevard du Temple, called Renaud's, where Lestat begins acting, and Nicolas plays the violin.

When Lestat is kidnapped by Magnus and transformed into a vampire, he hides from Nicki, seeking to conceal his dark nature. He attempts to watch over Nicki from afar, sending him expensive gifts, such as a Stradivarius violin, and buying him a new apartment. Believing that Lestat has abandoned him in spite of the numerous gifts, Nicolas sinks into a deep depression. One night Nicolas senses Lestat nearby and plays the violin in an unsuccessful attempt to coax him out.

Shortly thereafter, Nicolas is abducted by a coven of vampires led by Armand. They feed from him yet do not kill him, and his mind snaps irreparably, plunging him into a darkness from which he does not escape. Lestat comes to the catacombs under Les Innocents, knowing that Armand has Nicolas, and liberates him after some difficulty.

### Life as a Vampire

After being rescued and returning to Lestat's home with him, Nicki pleads to become a vampire. Lestat refuses, but is finally convinced to turn Nicki into a vampire. As Lestat feeds from Nicolas, he is plunged into the darkness in which Nicolas resides. He describes the scene as a seamless black sea, where all colours have faded, and that he sees only a bird soaring over the void expanse. He describes a feeling of having lost all that was once cherished. He describes it also as worse than his moment of darkness at the Inn, and tries to recoil from it. He finally turns Nicki into a vampire, which strains their friendship.

After the transformation, Nicolas becomes catatonic. Lestat and his mother Gabrielle take Nicolas to Paris, where he slips from their grasp and disappears into the night. Lestat cannot read Nicki's mind, but Gabrielle can, and tells him that the only things Nicolas thinks of are the funeral pyre under Les Innocents, upon which he was almost killed, and Renaud's theatre. They deduce that he must have run to the theatre and they find him there, sitting alone. Lestat gives the violin he had retrieved for him and Nicolas begins to play, improvising dark and terrible music. Lestat describes the music as "the darkness exploded, the darkness molten" and is horrified by it.

The remaining members of Armand's coven appear and begin to dance, and Nicolas joins them. Nicolas finally becomes vocal, and he demands the theatre, slinging insults at Lestat and finally admitting that he never wanted them to succeed in Paris. Nicolas proclaims his group to be the Theatre of the Vampires, and becomes the troupe's playwright and composer.

### Death

Lestat grants Nicki his wish and turns over the theatre. He and Gabrielle decide to leave Paris and leave Nicolas in Armand's care. The coven attempts to care for Nicolas, and Eleni refers to him fondly as "Our Divine Violinist", but he becomes progressively more insane and difficult to deal with, accosting strangers on the street and making no attempt to conceal his vampiric nature. Armand finally resorts to restraining him in a cell and cuts off his hands to prevent him from playing his violin so manically. Once released, Nicki writes a stack of new plays, then demands that the coven build him a funeral pyre and hold a sabbat, else he set fire to the theatre and kill himself there. The coven abides by Nicki's wishes and organizes a sabbat for him, where he dances into the flames, committing suicide.

Nicolas's prized Stradivarius violin, as well as an account of his death, are sent on to Lestat. He keeps the instrument with him and in the later novel *The* *Queen of the Damned* plays it for Akasha. Centuries later, during Lestat's journey to Heaven and Hell, he is unable to locate Nicolas in either realm.

Jesse exhibited supernatural powers from a young age. For example, she frequently saw ghosts of people and places long since destroyed. Jesse was afraid of these apparitions and disturbed that no one but her could see them. At sixteen, she saw the ghost of her mother, Miriam, in her bedroom, who told Jesse not to be afraid of ghosts, since they could do her no harm. Jesse confided her worries and fears to Maharet, whom she thought of as an aunt, through letters. Maharet explained to her that seers of spirits were common with women in the Great Family, and that it was a gift that seemed to come with the attributes of green eyes, pale skin and red hair. She urged Jesse to write to her whenever she would be frightened by it.

Maharet wrote frequently and always bought her plane tickets to see other members of the Great Family in Europe, Africa, and Asia. Maharet also gave Jesse an apartment in New York and provided money for her tuition at Columbia University.

Jesse was living in London when Aaron Lightner, one of the leaders of the Talamasca, came to her house. Over dinner, he asked her to join the Talamasca, a secret organization investigating supernatural occurances around the world.

Maharet wasn't thrilled to hear that Jesse had joined the Talamasca order, but after Jesse said she would not tell them about the Great Family or the strange things that happened in the Sonoma compound, Maharet decided that she couldn't refuse Jesse to join the order if it made her happy.

## Queen of The Damned

At first, Jesse worked in the archives, translating Latin texts. Later, she worked in the field and was sent to haunted houses all over Europe and the United States. Then she met with David Talbot, the head of the order, who told her that vampires were real, and he sent her to New Orleans. There she was to investigate and document events from the book *Interview with the Vampire* that took place. During the time in New Orleans she broke the strict rules of the Talamasca in cases concerning vampires, which led to her encounter with the spirit of Claudia, the vampire child of Lestat and Louis. This concluded in Jesse being sick for weeks, and her being taken off the case.

She later visited Matthew and Maria in New York, where she discovered Lestat's book *The Vampire Lestat*, his album and decided to go to his concert in San Francisco. She traveled from New York to California and stayed for a while in the Sonoma compound where she remembered more of what happened that summer long ago.

At the concert in San Francisco Jesse managed to get up on stage, where she threw herself at Lestat. By doing this she got her suspicions confirmed: Mael and Maharet were vampires, just like she knew Lestat was. After being dragged off stage she was found sitting in a doorway by a vampire who identified her as part of the Talamasca. It threw her across the room, breaking her neck. Mael, who was at the concert to protect Jesse, took her from the hospital and gave her as much of his blood as he could to keep her alive. Jesse didn't want to die, and asked Mael to make her a vampire, and just before he did, Maharet came into the room and did it instead.

In regards to Jesse as a vampire, she is far more powerful than others of her age. This is because of the potent blood of Maharet which she received, much like David Talbot receiving the blood of Lestat.

In the film, she becomes enamored with Lestat and figures out his secret. They meet in an alleyway outside a nightclub called the "Admiral's Arms" after he saves her from a trio of vampires. During the scene it's shown that he is strongly attracted to her as well and that the closer that he gets to her, the more it's clear that he's just as much as attracted to her scent as he is to her boldness. For a moment it looks like that the only reason that he saved her was so that he could drain her himself, but after discovering that she works for the Talamascans, he lets her go (but not without displaying a strong dislike for the Talamasca, however).

After this event, she soon travels to his apartment and gives him back his journal. During that time, the two become very close as Jesse shares her dream with Lestat and as he shows her both the beauty and the horrors of being a vampire. A few nights later, Jesse attends Lestat's concert. (Instead of jumping into Lestat’s arms before being pulled back by the concert-goers like she did in the novel, Jesse attempts to warn him of the attacks by the vampires in the crowd by calling out his name, but this doesn’t work — although he defends himself very well.)

Near the end of the film, Queen Akasha (The Vampire Queen) has bewitched Lestat and has made him her king. Queen Akasha orders Lestat to kill Jesse and he obeys. Jesse is aware that the Queen has done something to Lestat and is willing to let him drain her of all her blood if it will free him. After Lestat drinks her blood, the spell is broken and he comes to his senses. Upon doing so, he becomes very deeply enraged at what Queen Akasha has made him do, and leads the charge against the Queen, and the other vampires drink her dry. After Akasha's death, Lestat cradles Jesse's body in his arms and looks at Maharet (who is now a statue as she had taken Akasha's death into herself).

Mekare and Maharet were twin sisters and powerful witches living in a beautiful valley not far from Egypt six thousand years ago. They had curly red hair and green eyes, and were hereditary witches who could communicate with spirits. This attracted the attention of Akasha, the young queen of Kemet, now known as Egypt, who sent them an invitation to visit her when they were sixteen years old. They refused, sensing something ominous about the request.

When the twins arrived in Kemet, they were looked on in awe and fear by all who saw them; these people had never seen red hair, and twins were taboo in the country. They truthfully answered all the questions about spirits and gods put to them by the Queen. However, as their answers did not fit with Akasha's beliefs, they were labeled as blasphemers and were thrown into jail. The next morning, the Queen sent and put the same questions to them. Mekare called on a mischievous spirit named Amel, against the wishes of her sister, to display her power. This terrified the queen and her husband, King Enkil, and the twins were thrown into jail again for three nights and days before they received their punishment.

* Kevin is the second prophet to appear in the series, not counting the false prophet Leah or the Jehovah's Witness Dean talked to who seemed to be a prophet, the first being Chuck Shurley.
	+ Since Chuck is actually God in disguise, Kevin is the first true prophet to appear in the series.
* Kevin was on one occasion protected by Metatron from Crowley, ironically, Metatron would order his death later.
* He was, as of Metatron's plan to take over Heaven, the last prophet to be activated. Shortly after Kevin's soul goes to Heaven, Donatello Redfield is activated by Amara's power.
* Kevin was formerly a vegan and an AP student.
* Kevin wanted to be the first Asian-American president of the United States.
* He played the cello.
* Unlike Chuck Shurley, Kevin did not have an archangel protector as Lucifer and Michael were in Lucifer's Cage in Hell and Raphael and Gabriel were deceased/presumed deceased.
* He liked Magic: The Gathering , The Elder Scrolls: Skyrim and Aziz Ansari.
* Kevin's actor, Osric Chau, indicated that Kevin was originally supposed to be killed off with "a less than heroic death" in *Survival of the Fittest* and that he believes fan support was the reason why Kevin managed to survive for two more seasons.
* In *Blood Brother* we see a screen shot of Kevin's application to Princeton which shows his date of birth as December 2, 1993. This information is reinforced by a Facebook post by Osric Chau.
	+ However, earlier in *Reading Is Fundamental*, his age was listed as 16-years-old in a television report. If he was born in 1993, he should have been 18 or 19 when the episode aired. This confusion is most likely due to writers' inconsistencies. Therefore it is unclear how old Kevin actually is.
	+ Given that Kevin's first appearance in *Reading Is Fundamental* shows he is applying to college though, and lists his age as 16 in his missing report, we can assume that he advanced grades (which would fall in lieu with his advanced placement line), making him actually born in 1995.
* Kevin is the second extended family member of the Winchesters to return as a ghost. The first was Bobby Singer. However, unlike Bobby, Kevin had no choice in the matter and hasn't as of yet gone vengeful and angry.
* Kevin's actor, Osric Chau, starred in The Hillywood Show's Supernatural Parody as Sam Winchester.
* Kevin's hair length changes a few times over the course of the series from long, to short (due to Crowley), to moderately long before his death and as a ghost.
	+ While explained in-universe as being of Crowley's doing, Chau's hair was shorter due to his work on *Halo 4: Forward Unto Dawn*, which was filmed between his appearances in seasons 7 and 8. His character's head is shaved during the film cut's prelude.
* Given Kevin's reactions to some of what his mother did after he became a Prophet, he was likely unaware of just how capable and resourceful she is. He also seemed surprised by her having a tattoo. However, he did seem to know that she is not to be messed with as when Dean asked for his help in making her stay in a safe house, he didn't even try and basically said he couldn't.
* Kevin displays a phenomenal memory and calculating abilities as shown in *What's Up, Tiger Mommy?* when Linda quizzes him on tax law to intimidate a pawnshop owner into giving them what they wanted. Kevin seemed rather smug as he recited the information too.
* Kevin used to be in the engineering club and his mother would help him with his projects. His mother mentions this as her reason for her knowledge of electronics when freeing herself and Sam from a cell in *Captives*.
* Kevin and his mother share a great deal of resourcefulness. Linda has shown herself to be extremely resourceful and not to be underestimated (though she usually is) several times and Kevin seems to have inherited this from her. Kevin proved capable of tricking Crowley several times and escaping while making his captors collect what he needed to escape in the first place. He was also resourceful enough to remain on the run and not be caught for an entire year, using only his smarts and what he learned from the Demon Tablet to stay ahead of the demons despite having hidden the tablet at some point. He even remained hidden from Sam and Dean for months, laying false trails and successfully evading them despite them tracking down people and monsters for a living. After being recaptured and having his memory of the event wiped, Kevin was able to identify two demons as imposters and trick them into a Devil's Trap seemingly just to make a point as he didn't even try to escape afterwards. He also set things up so that if he died, his work would not be lost and Sam and Dean could finish what he started and was able to steal Crowley's half of the demon tablet while being strangled by him and rescued. When called in to back up their alibi, Kevin was able to hack a military database in moments and blackmail an MP into doing what he wanted. Even as a ghost, Kevin remained resourceful, using the opportunity to pass messages between ghosts to try to find his mother.
* Following all that Crowley put him through, Kevin seemed to grow somewhat darker as he was willing to torture Crowley for payback and wanted him dead after his capture despite his possible usefulness.
* Kevin was initially meeker at first than in his later appearances. He was greatly frightened when Meg captured him and hyperventilated a bit at the idea of being a Prophet. He grew somewhat braver when faced with Dick Roman, but still broke under pressure when his mother's life was threatened. However, when rescued by Sam, he refused to leave until Dick's plan to kill all the skinny people was thwarted though he wanted to flee after Dick's death. Following his capture by Crowley, Kevin grew braver and more assertive, escaping from Crowley and refusing to give into pressure as easily as before, even becoming defiant in ways.
* Kevin and his mother have both killed demons who held them captive: Kevin used a demon bomb to kill two demon minions to escape Crowley's grasp in *We Need To Talk About Kevin* and Linda killed Del after being rescued by Sam and Dean in *Captives*. Linda was also able to capture a demon sent to kill her.
* Crowley displayed a possible fondness for Kevin: when informed of his death, Crowley seemed genuinely sorry he was dead and told Dean he warned Kevin it would happen if he didn't leave.
* Kevin is the first soul confirmed to be sent to Hell by God himself.
	+ It is unknown why God sent Kevin's soul to Hell since at the time he liked the Winchesters.
	+ As of *Carry On*, it is apparent that Jack, as the new God, has either abolished the rule that souls sent to Hell can't go to Heaven or is able to at least make exceptions, as Dean was able to enter Heaven despite having been sent to Hell before. As he is never seen again, it is unknown whether Jack also allows Kevin to ascend to Heaven or if he remains on Earth.

## Personality

After being activated as a prophet, Kevin was initially timid and nervous and longed for his normal life back, but eventually he bitterly resigned himself to the fact that he practically had no chance of that anymore. Kevin could also initially break under torture, but during the efforts to seal Hell, he toughened up and became stronger and braver against Crowley. However, though he'd developed stronger willpower against torture, Kevin did apparently still harbour a deep, intense hatred towards Crowley for everything the King of Hell had done to Kevin and his mother, and showed himself to become very wrathful and violent when his rage towards Crowley was set off. Kevin was shown to be a very intelligent, witty and cunning young man as well in how he'd escaped and eluded both Crowley's demons and the Winchesters multiple times.

Unlike most ghosts, Kevin showed no signs of going crazy after being trapped on Earth for over two years. Instead, Kevin retained the same personality he always had. Remarkably, even after over three years trapped in Hell, Kevin's personality was also much the same though he was more assertive towards the other ghosts and enjoyed having influence over them. With the revelation that he could only go back to Hell, Kevin decided to risk going crazy on Earth as an untethered ghost than going back to the torture of Hell. However, he seemed somewhat optimistic and enjoyed the thought of exploring the world.

## Powers and Abilities

### Prophet Abilities

Kevin Tran has been shown to be a very intelligent and cunning young man, eluding demons alone, as well as escaping capture from Sam and Dean multiple times. However, despite being a prophet of God, and therefore having a direct link with Heaven and the angels, he did not display the capability to see into the future or to see events as they unfold.

* **Word of God Interpreting** - He was able to translate the stone tablets which had the Word of God written upon it.
* **Word of God Repairing** - As the Prophet connected to the tablets, Kevin could repair the tablets by simply putting the pieces back together as shown with the Leviathan and Demon tablets. He is the only one able to do this.

### Human Abilities

* **Spell Casting** - Upon the discovery of the tablet on demons, he had since learned how to create a demon bomb that could destroy all nearby demons and their vessels.
* **Basic Hunting Skills** - Due to reading the demon tablet, Kevin learned some basic defenses against demons such as devil's traps and holy water. He was cunning enough to leave a devil's trap in another location in case he ever needed to trick demons.
* **Electronics and Computer Knowledge** - Kevin has been shown to be adept with computers to the point that he was able to hack into a military computer network with no apparent effort. He also has a level of electronics knowledge as his mother stated he used to be in the engineering club and she learned how to hotwire a storage locker door from helping him.

**Kevin Tran** (born December 2, 1995 - 2013) was an advanced placement high school student whose life was turned upside down when he became a Prophet.

Kevin translated the Leviathan tablet which led to the downfall of Dick Roman, and then uncovered the secrets of closing Hell forever in the Demon tablet before being tasked with reversing Metatron's spell to empty out Heaven. On Metatron's instructions, Kevin was smote by Gadreel, who was possessing Sam Winchester. He later returned as a ghost unable to move on to Heaven as a side-effect of Metatron's spell and decided to stay with and protect his mother.

Two years later Kevin was called upon by God to help him convince the Winchesters to trust him. Afterwards, God supposedly sent Kevin's soul to his final resting place in Heaven, stating that Kevin had been stuck in the Veil long enough.

An alternate version of Kevin was discovered on an apocalyptic Earth, where he works as a Prophet for the Archangel Michael until sacrificing himself on behalf of Michael.

After God releases all of the souls of Hell upon the Earth, Kevin returns to help, revealing that his ascension to Heaven had been a lie and that he had instead been sent to Hell. With the revelation that he could never enter Heaven after having been cast into Hell, Kevin decided to wander the Earth as an untethered ghost, risking going crazy rather than going back to Hell.

## Personality

Linda is shown to be very resourceful and easily underestimated. In *What's Up, Tiger Mommy?*, her determination and knowledge surprises everyone. She is also able to make a pawnshop owner tell them what they want to know with her knowledge of tax law rather than physical intimidation. In *A Little Slice of Kevin*, she was able to contact a witch for ingredients to the demon bomb and after Crowley left a demon to kill her, she overpowered him despite having no apparent formal training in fighting. She was also smart enough to take the demon with her to her meeting with the Winchesters, knowing he could likely lead them to Kevin.

In *Captives*, she was able to free herself and Sam from their cell, demonstrating a knowledge of electronics in the process. She states that she got this from helping Kevin with his school projects. She also demonstrated a great memory in the process since it had been at least a couple of years since she would've been able to have helped him.

Following her captivity, Linda seemed to become somewhat vengeful: she took great pleasure in killing Del. In fact, her response to the opportunity scared Del who basically pleaded for his life. When telling Del they weren't going to kill him but leave him for someone else, Sam indicated that he believed Linda's wrath to be worse than that of Crowley's. Indeed, Del was frightened by her despite her having been his prisoner for nearly a year.

Fundamentally, Linda cares deeply for her son and will do anything to keep him safe. She is also good at accepting otherwise surprising news, such as her son's status as a prophet and his brief return as a ghost.

In her first appearance, Linda was far more easily intimidated.

## Powers and Abilities

Despite being a normal human with no powers, Linda has displayed a few extraordinary abilities.

* **Resourcefulness** - Linda has shown herself to be incredibly resourceful, using tax law rather than intimidation to get what she wants, capturing a demon left to kill her and helping Sam escape a cell even after months of being held captive. She was also resourceful enough to take the demon with her when she met up with the Winchesters and Castiel, knowing he could likely lead them to Kevin so he could be rescued.
* **Knowledge of Electronics** - Linda has shown a surprising level of electronic knowledge, being able to free herself and Sam from a storage unit they were held captive in. She explained that she learned it from helping Kevin with his engineering club projects years before.
* **Basic Hunting Skills** - Linda has shown a basic level of hunting knowledge with regards to demons due to being on the run with Kevin. She has used holy water and salt lines as defenses against demons. She was also able to capture a demon who was ordered to kill her, overpowering him somehow after hitting him with holy water. Once she had him captive, she put him in her trunk where she drew a devil's trap similar to the one on the Impala trunk to hold him for the drive to meet up with the Winchesters and Castiel.

## Trivia

* It is revealed in *What's Up, Tiger Mommy?* by Linda that she received a tattoo on a certain part of her body in her past (most likely somewhere sexually suggestive). Given Kevin's reaction to this revelation, he didn't know about it.
* It is mockingly revealed in *What's Up, Tiger Mommy?* by Crowley after possessing Linda that she had an extramarital affair that resulted in the birth of her son Kevin Tran, though whether he was being truthful or not is unclear.
* Linda's brother works at the Wyoming tax assessor's office.
* After her brief possession by Crowley, Linda was left catatonic. However, she recovered by her next appearance though how long and what it took for her to recover is not revealed.
* The actress was changed in the beginning of Season 8. The original Linda Tran was Khaira Ledeyo.
* The portrayals of Linda are different between the actresses: the Linda in season 7 was more meek and easily frightened by Edgar and was cowering while being held captive by Dick Roman. In contrast, Lauren Tom's Linda is much stronger and more assertive, only displaying fear when held captive by Crowley for months but quickly recovering.
* Linda once punched Crowley in the face. He wasn't pleased which may have contributed to his later possession of her rendering her temporarily catatonic.
* In *Captives*, Linda reveals her husband died when Kevin was a baby and Kevin never really knew him.
* Linda seems to share her resourcefulness with Kevin as he has proven to be extremely resourceful like his mother at times as well, such as when he concocted the demon bomb to escape Crowley and tricked two of Crowley's demons into a Devil's Trap while still a prisoner.
* Linda's fate following *Captives* isn't revealed as she isn't mentioned when Kevin briefly returns in *All in the Family* or when he comes back again in *Raising Hell*.

## Trivia

* Jessica seemed to be a student at Stanford like Sam, but it is not known what she was studying.
* Jessica shares her birthday, January 24, 1984, with Dean. In an interview, Eric Kripke said that January 24 is his wife's birthday, and "It's kinda my Valentine".
* The studio bosses wanted Kripke to write Jessica as an ongoing character, but Kripke thought it would not work and suggested killing her off, which they liked. The studio then urged Kripke to make Jessica an evil demon character who was planted into Sam's life with purpose, and whose betrayal drives him on the road as he realizes demons are closer to him than he thought. This was used in Season 5 with Brady and Lucifer's revelation of people he knew in his childhood being affiliated with demons.
* Jessica has a slightly larger role in the Anime series, though her fate remains unchanged. She is also said to be a law school student.
* Jessica's line of 'crash and burn' is ironic, as she was burned alive.
* Both Mary and Jess' deaths were similar: they were both wearing a white nightgowns at the time of their death; Sam was lying underneath them as they died; both were killed in the same manner; and Prince of Hell Azazel influenced both deaths. Also, both of them died on November 2nd.

## Personality

Jessica was a cheerful and optimistic woman who encouraged Sam to do well academically. She also had a sense of humor, telling Sam that without her, he would "crash and burn". Jessica loved Sam dearly and often expressed concern for his well-being, his happiness, and his future.

When Sam left to join Dean in what was supposed to be a temporary trip, Jessica expressed sadness due to her concern, which was made worse since Sam did not reveal to her the truth behind Dean's hunting. Jessica mentioned how she wanted to know more about Sam's past, and while she was generally okay with not knowing much about it, she was visibly unhappy at Sam's seemingly lack of trust.

Nevertheless, in her final moments, Jessica was eager and ready to welcome Sam back home, baking him cookies while she waited. In her final hour, Jessica gazed upon Sam from the ceiling, watching him as he returned home clueless about what had happened to her until he felt her blood drip onto him. Jessica was visibly in pain until she burst into flames, never to know that her relationship with Sam was doomed from the beginning.

## Physical Appearance

Jessica was a blonde woman of average height. Her hair reached her mid-back and was sometimes kept in curls. She is never shown tying it up, always let loose. In one of her first appearances, Jessica wore a nurse outfit for Halloween and was later shown in her pajamas, consisting of a gray shirt and blue shorts. After her death, Jessica always appeared in her white nightgown, the dress she died in. The only exception is her counterpart in Dean's dream caused by the djinn. This version of Jessica also wore an engagement ring, something Sam never managed to give to the real Jessica.

## Biography

### Early Life

Little is known about Jessica's past or where she came from. She was likely a college student when Sam's best friend Brady introduced them. Neither were aware that Brady was actually possessed by a demon and was putting them together for Azazel's purposes. A year and a half before the pilot episode of the series, Jessica and Sam Winchester became a couple and began living together.

Despite loving each other deeply, Jessica never got to know about Sam's family secrets, or that Sam had been dreaming about her death prior. When Dean Winchester, Sam's older brother, visited to bring Sam along to look for their father, Jessica worried that Sam would lose his chance in university by following his brother, but Sam reassured her that he would be back before Monday.

During the end of the weekend, Jessica made cookies as a welcome present for Sam, before she was killed in the same way that Mary Winchester was killed; sliced across the stomach on the ceiling. When Sam saw Jessica, she seemed to still be alive, but soon burst into flames. The Winchesters believed that the demon that killed their mother, Azazel, did it, but Brady later told them it was him on Azazel's orders in order to push Sam back into hunting.

## Trivia

* Following Claire telling Castiel that she likes him better in a tie in *The Hunter Games*, Castiel starts wearing a tie again as shown in *The Executioner's Song* for the first time continuously since he lost his grace.
* In *Lily Sunder Has Some Regrets,* it is revealed that Claire is Castiel's second female vessel. Castiel also possessed a woman in 1901 for an unknown period of time.
* Claire was the second human that is not a hunter to kill an angel. The first was George. This experience along with the death of her mother motivated her to become a hunter.
* Claire is the only werewolf to have ever been cured.
* She was born in Pontiac, Illinois.
* As of *Twigs & Twine & Tasha Banes*, she is 20 years of age.
* Claire was to be a major character in the spinoff, *Supernatural: Wayward Sisters*.
* She is the first recurring character to go to another world she went to The Bad Place in *Wayward Sisters*.
* Claire was hinted to be attracted to Kaia Nieves.
	+ It was confirmed to be true by Jody Mills in *The Scar* who called Kaia Claire's first love.

## Personality

Claire was once an ordinary girl living an ordinary life with her devout father and loving mother. Her life began to change when the angel Castiel took her father away. Months later, her family was attacked by demons. Her experience with the supernatural has hardened her, but the most influential period of her life was after her father was taken away a second time, leading her mother to go look for him and leaving Claire behind in the process.

Practically alone, Claire was forced to become more independent and commit several illicit activities. Although she relied on certain individuals such as Randy to grant her shelter, Claire was now willing to lie and steal to better her own life. Her behavior matched that of a typical problem child.

Years of resentment towards Castiel for ruining her life did not serve her well, and she was distrustful of him and highly bitter. She was even willing to let Dean get killed, seeing the Winchesters as only enemies despite their friendly intentions. It took a reunion with her mother and much talk from Castiel and the Winchesters for Claire to finally let go of her resentment and become a happier person. She even came to see them as good friends, joining them on cases, counting them to save her, and being willing to risk her life when she went to the Bad Place and rescued them.

As Jody's adopted daughter, Claire continues to seek an independent lifestyle, favoring hunting over a normal school life which she would have preferred originally. Now an outspoken, brave, and self-confident young woman, Claire has succeeded in finding balance in her own life despite the imperfections. When she saw that her adoptive sister Annie Jones and mother were willing to risk their lives for her because of a vampire attack, she shed some of her sad side and even tried to make breakfast even though she burnt the food. After being briefly turned into a werewolf, Claire fully accepted Jody and Alex as her family, willing to face death by the risky Werewolf cure than hurt them. She later called Jody her mother in a voicemail she left her.

Despite putting on a tough exterior, Claire admits to Dean in a vulnerable moment that the truth is, she is barely keeping it together on a good day.

Despite only knowing Kaia Nieves for a short time, Claire fell deeply in love with her, as later stated by Jody. After Kaia's apparent death, Claire became determined to get revenge on Dark Kaia, even if she had to cross universes to do it and subsequently spent two years hunting Dark Kaia after learning that she had crossed to the Main Universe. After learning that Kaia was still alive and trapped in the Bad Place, Jody believed that Claire would not survive learning that Kaia had survived only to die in a failed rescue mission.

## Physical Appearance

Claire has bright-colored eyes and long blonde hair. As a child, she was well-dressed and kept her hair long. As a teenager, Claire's rebellious phase and harsh life drove her to wear dark eyeliner and make her hair curlier. Her outfits usually consist of trousers, a shirt, and a jacket. After moving in with Jody Mills, Claire did away with the dark eyeliner and eventually started wearing lighter themed clothes.

## Equipment

During her time with Randy, Claire was given a revolver so she could rob a store. The gun was presumably confiscated by Castiel when he caught her in the act. Later on, Dean gives her a handgun which she is allowed to keep, on the grounds that she "didn't shoot him". She is shown trying to use this particular handgun against Tamiel to no effect. When Tamiel was distracted by his fight with Team Free Will, Claire used his angel sword to kill him. Afterwards, Claire takes his angel sword, a weapon she is shown to use against suspected monsters in Sioux Falls and given a lore on monsters to help in hunts. In *Ladies Drink Free*, Claire is shown to have a box full of cell phones in her car.

## Skills and Abilities

### Human

Claire has basic skills of a human. Through her lineage, Claire could serve as an alternate vessel to the angel Castiel. Castiel remarked on something in Claire's blood making it possible.

* **Pocket Thief** - Claire was shown to be a skilled thief as she stole the wallet off Castiel without him noticing and its implied she stole money from others while working for Randy.
* **Basic Hunting Skills** - After deciding to be a Hunter, Claire was given a lore of monsters by Dean Winchester to help her. She was initially somewhat inept, as she easily mistook normal people or animals for monsters. This caused her to have a troubled history though she avoided jail since Jody Mills was the sheriff. However, Claire was proven right in one search, as the monster abducted her and her adoptive family. By *Ladies Drink Free*, Claire has somewhat overcome her shortcomings and was able to hold her own against a werewolf. It was shown in *Wayward Sisters* after gaining more experience on her own, Claire became more competent as a hunter which was shown when she saved a child from werewolves and only got a few scars. She later killed many of the Cloaked Figures after they attacked Jody's home. She became skilled in disguising herself to cover her activities as seen when she deceived the werewolves or telling the child's mother she was an FBI agent.

**Claire Novak** is the daughter of Jimmy, Castiel's true vessel and a hunter. After her father's departure, Claire's mother went off to find herself and left her in the care of her grandmother. Her grandmother died and Claire struggled in group homes as well as developing a rebellious nature and resentment to the angel who ruined her life. She fell in with a bad crowd before she encountered Castiel again and refused his kindness, even stealing from him and his allies. Claire soon forgave Castiel after he helped her find her lost mother Amelia Novak but she was orphaned when her mother was killed by a Grigori. Claire personally avenged her mother and decided to be a Hunter before she was sent to live with the Mills Family. Though Claire struggled to adjust with them as well as hunting, she came to see them as her family and eventually, she became a hunter.

## Personality

When Alex first appeared, due to having spent most of her life raised by vampires, she possessed a bad attitude and apparently low morals. As a result, Alex was willing, albeit reluctantly to lure men to their deaths at the hands of her vampire "family." After learning of the death of Jody Mills' family, her reaction was simply "oh, they're dead" and to ask how they died. However, despite appearances, Alex possessed at least some morality, having run away out of guilt over what she was doing and even saved Jody's life. Following her rescue, Alex continued to be rebellious for some time as shown with Jody's conversation with her and the Winchesters in which she is shown to be smoking reefer under the bleachers and throwing parties while Jody is gone.

However, at some point, Alex began to change into a more caring person. She focused in school, had a boyfriend and was much less rebellious towards Jody. After the encounter with Richard Beesome, Alex stated she could not be around the world of hunters and desired a normal life. Alex's caring side grew to the point that she started to go to nursing school to help others and treated Dean Winchester's leg injury when he showed up hurt.

At first, Alex possessed a strained relationship with Jody Mills and her foster sister Claire Novak. Part of her strained relationship with Jody at first came from the fact that Jody had killed her "brother" Cody and then afterward came from her rebellious nature. However, over time they became closer and gained a mother-daughter relationship. When Jody went to go after the British Men of Letters, they shared a fond goodbye and Alex told Jody to "kick it in the ass" rather than to be careful as Jody had expected. With Claire, Alex's relationship was strained at first and Claire believed Alex didn't like her at all. However, Alex's willingness to trade herself for Claire showed that this wasn't the case. Following the fight with Richard Beesome and Henry, Alex and Claire appeared to put aside their differences and become closer. It's indicated that the two developed a sibling-like relationship, attending a concert together and sometimes snooping through each other's stuff as shown with Claire's voicemail to Jody. When the two reunited when Jody called Claire for help when the Winchesters went missing, Alex claimed not to have missed Claire but said it with a smile showing that she didn't mean it. Though the two continued to bicker, it was with far less animosity than previously shown and closer to sibling bickering.

Though Alex stated a desire to stay away from the hunting life and to live a normal life, she only partially kept to this desire. Alex helped Jody on cases when Jody asked for her help, but also had a normal life and job as a nurse. Alex indicated that she helped Jody for Jody's sake rather than out of any desire to be a hunter. While talking with Patience Turner, Alex admitted that she wasn't much of a fighter, but she helped in other ways, presumably such as research or contacting other hunters for information on Jody's behalf. While on a hunt, Alex showed that she could handle herself and fearlessly faced down several dangerous monsters alongside Patience, Jody, and Donna, even killing one herself.

**Alex Jones**, born **Annie**, was reported abducted in 2006 outside of Kenosha, Wisconsin. She was kidnapped by Celia and her family, and used as a blood slave and as a lure, bringing unsuspecting victims to the nest for her family to feed on. She ran away out of guilt for what she was doing. She has since been adopted by Jody Mills.

Hunter (part-time)

## Personality

Charlie was an I.T. expert who worked for Richard Roman Enterprises before being introduced to the Leviathans. She was a lesbian and she appeared to have the same taste in women as Dean. She had a taste for electro-pop and left politics, and is a keen gamer and fangirl. Her favorite series include *Harry Potter*, *The Lord of the Rings*, *Game of Thrones* and *Star Wars*. She described herself as being "completely obsessed" and was highly intelligent. She also admitted to having a problem with authority and as such sometimes hacked websites to express this. Charlie was also shown to be openly flirtatious. Despite being intelligent and very interested in the world of the supernatural, Charlie was somewhat timid, and was easily intimidated when facing opponents who could kill her, as well as anything generally supernatural or dangerous. However, she normally managed to overcome her fears to do what's right or necessary. She also commonly used geek speak and slang. She had a sibling-like relationship with the Winchester brothers, like when Dean called her "the little sister I never wanted." She later tells Rowena that she sees Sam and Dean as her brothers. Charlie described herself as a "nerd" and was proud of the fact. She was very resourceful as shown in her ability to evade the law for 16 years and later the Styne Family. Charlie also displayed her resourcefulness when, before her death, she emails her notes to Sam before she destroys them so the knowledge won't be lost with her death.

Charlie has a dark side that is vicious and shows no remorse or hesitation in torture and killing. According to Charlie's good side, while separated from her, Dark Charlie did a lot of really bad things even before torturing people to find Russell Wellington. Without her dark side, Charlie is pure good, unwilling to hack, drink or even hit on people. However, even without her dark side, Charlie proved willing, albeit with much reluctance, to kill. When the two sides are united, Charlie describes herself as neither good nor bad but "balanced."

Charlie is seen to be extremely smart and very knowledgeable about technology. She was able to hack the Commodore 64 despite it being over 50 years old. She is also extremely good at hacking, having hacked Frank Deveraux's hard drive in about a day despite all the protections Frank put on it and his paranoid nature in protecting his things. She was also able to easily hack Dick Roman's computer, an act that she told Sam and Dean she deserved to get caught at if it took her more than fifteen minutes. Her hacking and decoding abilities are also seen in how she was able to crack the *Book of the Damned*: after a long time of frustrating work on translating the *Book* and Nadia's Codex, she finally broke a code that not even Rowena, a centuries-old witch could crack and that she herself had earlier believed was impossible for her to do.

Charlie is very brave as seen with her willingness to brave returning to Richard Roman Enterprises to help get information on Dick Roman, her actions in confronting the Wicked Witch and going to Oz to help free it from evil and how she fought so hard to keep the *Book of the Damned* from the Styne Family. Her biggest act of bravery was when, even though she knew it was likely to cost her her life, she refused to give her notes on the *Book of the Damned* to Eldon Frankenstein as his family would use it for evil, destroying her Surface tablet to that extent. Though she was killed and was clearly scared, she faced Eldon down with her blade rather than cowering in fear, though it didn't do her any good. She also made sure that what she'd learned wasn't lost so her sacrifice wouldn't be in vain. This bravery seems to have been developed over the course of her adventures with Sam and Dean as during *LARP and the Real Girl*, she was more than willing to run from her new life rather than face danger at first, but after helping, she decided to stop running and settle into a life.

## Physical Appearance

Charlie was a petite red haired woman in her mid 20's. She had a Princess Leia tattoo because she thought Princess Leia was an awesome kind of woman, and she admired her so much, she got this tattoo during a comic convention while she was drunk. She appeared to need glasses, but only wore them when the Winchesters first met her. In *Pac-Man Fever* she decided to get herself some bangs, still keeping her signature long red hair. She keeps this hairstyle until the events of *Slumber Party*, where she departs to Oz. Returning from Oz, she had cut her trademark long red hair shorter.

## Powers and Abilities

* **Genius-Level Intellect** - Charlie has a genius-level intellect that aids her greatly in situations which the Winchesters really admired.
* **Expert Hacker** - Charlie is an expert hacker who has been able to hack the hard drive of Frank Devereaux in about a day, a man who was known for his paranoia.
* **Adept Fighter** - Charlie has shown herself to be an adept fighter, able to survive the war in Oz and fight and kill a Styne Family henchman in *Book of the Damned*.
* **Expert Hunting Skills** - Over time, Charlie developed expert hunting skills, becoming good enough to hunt on her own and survive.
* **Code Cracking** - Charlie has displayed the ability to crack extremely difficult codes, such as the one protecting Nadia's Codex which Rowena, a centuries-old witch with experience in the magic they were dealing with and the author in question couldn't crack.

Hacker

Hunter

IT employee at RRE (formerly)

Woman of Letters

Member of Mark of Cain removal team (formerly)

**Charlene "Charlie" Bradbury**, born **Celeste Middleton** (1985 - 2015), was a hacker-turned-hunter. She helped Sam and Dean Winchester find out what the Leviathan Dick Roman was searching for. Her name was an alias, and had started a new life at least once before. Initially hired by Richard Roman Enterprises, Dick gave her the assignment to hack Frank Deveraux's hard drive. Roman kept her alive since she possessed a certain "spark" that the Leviathans were unable to copy. After killing the Wicked Witch, she decided to join Dorothy in freeing Oz from evil control. She later returned to stop her dark side from killing the man who killed her parents and unable to return to Oz, decided to focus on helping free Dean from the Mark of Cain's influence. Her efforts led her to track down and translate the *Book of the Damned*, an effort that cost her her life when she refused to give what she'd found to Eldon Frankenstein. However, with her last act, she has given Sam a chance to cure Dean as she cracked the *Book of the Damned* and sent her findings to Sam. Her death is avenged when Dean kills Eldon.

An alternate version of Charlie from the Apocalypse World appeared in Season 13. The alternate Charlie has now taken to living on the main Earth following being evacuated from her old world.

**Dorothy Baum** is a hunter whose father was L. Frank Baum, a member of the Men of Letters. Desperate when it appeared that The Wicked Witch could not be killed, Dorothy used a spell to bind herself and the Wicked Witch, keeping them both trapped in stasis at the Men of Letters bunker for decades. They were finally freed by Sam and Dean Winchester. After Charlie Bradbury killed the Wicked Witch, she and Dorothy went to Oz in order to continue fighting against the Witch's forces. After the **War For the Emerald City**, Dorothy became the new leader of Oz with The Wizard of Oz, unaware that he was evil and using her to gain power. After his death at the hands of Charlie, Dorothy presumably became the sole leader of Oz.

## Personality

Dorothy was an active hunter. She went on hunting trips by herself and was capable of capturing powerful creatures like the Wicked Witch. Dorothy did not let other people judge her by her gender, and she was not hesitant to voice out her opinion. She compared Men of Letters to librarians, often commenting how they never do much work other than looking after their books. This was in spite (or rather because) of her own father being a Man of Letters himself. However, her opinion of them did improve upon learning just how much work they had done to help her. She also showed this to Sam and Dean after they defeated her.

Dorothy was brave, as she would hold her ground even if she was outmatched or outnumbered. She was not afraid to take risks, and, with little apparent regard to the consequence, used the binding spell to incapacitate the witch. She was however somewhat arrogant and dismissive, such as initially not noticing when she was clearly outmatched. Likewise, her ignorance to the Men of Letters and her past blinded her from the answers she sought for many years.

While in Oz, she allied herself with the freedom fighters, and to date, continued to support the rebellion she helped incite. She valued her comrades, as she keeps the head of the tinman as a reminder of his sacrifice and offered Charlie Bradbury to join her after she helped her in a hunt. She took her mission with dedication and immediately returned to Oz to finish the rebellion without hesitation. Charlie later states that after the successful rebellion, Dorothy became one of Oz's two new leaders, the other being the Wizard of Oz before Charlie killed him.

## Powers and abilities

As a hunter, she had the fighting abilities and knowledge at her disposal. She was also allowed access to the bunker of the Men of Letters, thus granting her knowledge on some spells. Due to her travels in Oz, she has also been protected against the magic of the Wicked Witch. She is a capable fighter being able to hold her own against seasoned hunters like Sam and Dean, as well as staying on her feet even after taking a beating from them.

## Trivia

* Dorothy's surname may be Baum, assuming that she has the same surname as her father, L. Frank Baum. Alternatively, it may be Gale, which is the character's surname in the continuity of the original *Oz* books. It is revealed in *There's No Place Like Home* that Baum is in fact her last name.
* In real life, Dorothy Gale is based on L. Frank Baum's niece, Dorothy Louise Gage who died as a baby.
* Dorothy owns a motorcycle which is kept in the garage of the Men of Letters bunker. She keeps the head of the tinman (whom she said "didn't make it") and the Ruby Slippers in its satchel.
* Dorothy stated that, contrary to the books and movies about her time in Oz, she did not actually wear the Ruby Slippers. However, Dorothy implied that she does have a pet dog still in Oz and that she intends to find him when she goes back.
* In a deleted scene for *There's No Place Like Home*, Charlie tells Sam that she and Dorothy had become like sisters. She also reveals that she allowed the Wizard of Oz to split her soul in order to save Dorothy's life.
* Dorothy is one of seven known legacies, the others are Sam and Dean Winchester, Maura, Eileen Leahy, Marco Avila, and Ophelia Avila. Of the seven, she is one of five who are still alive.

**Rowena MacLeod** was an extremely powerful natural witch, and the mother of Crowley, who was originally named Fergus Roderick MacLeod. She is also the grandmother of Gavin MacLeod. She is of Scottish descent. She was one of the main antagonists of Season 10. In Season 11, she continued her efforts to gain power, eventually Rowena leagued with Lucifer upon promises she would be his queen. After helping Lucifer free himself, Lucifer snapped her neck so he could not be trapped in the Cage by her again. However, she was able to resurrect herself with a spell she had prepared in advance. She was killed by Lucifer a second time and he burned her body to try and prevent another resurrection.

Despite this, Rowena was resurrected again, though it took her a very long time to heal from the damage Lucifer caused. Some time later, a witch hunt with the Winchesters allowed her to obtain a spell to restore her full power, which had been sealed a long time ago. Rowena later went on a killing spree of Reapers to coerce Death into resurrecting her son, as she felt guilty for having failed him. This led to both her demands being rejected as well as Dean informing her that her permanent end would be caused by Sam. Rowena then accepted her loss and sided with the Winchesters to save their mother and Jack. She took part in capturing Lucifer himself, bound him and was tasked with watching him, until he eventually broke free and tried to kill her, before she managed to repel him right through the rift. Initially wanting nothing more to do with the Winchesters now that Lucifer was free again, she realized that she was their only hope of making it back home, and prolonged the opening so that they could return.

She assists in healing Jack Kline when he is deprived of his grace. Eventually, she is confronted by an Archangel from another reality, where she, albeit reluctantly, becomes his vessel for him to use in his desire to destroy the world, with Michael threatening to kill those she cares about if she refuses. However, Jack exorcises Michael from Rowena's body, leaving her unharmed and recovering from possession. She later becomes involved in Jack's attempt to resurrect Mary Winchester, beginning the creation of a resurrection spell at the same time that Sam would later be able to use to resurrect Eileen Leahy.

After God opens Hell and unleashes all of the souls inside, Rowena chooses to sacrifice herself to send everything back. After removing her Resurrection Seal, Rowena is stabbed and mortally wounded at her own request by Sam. With her last act, Rowena draws all of the souls and demons into herself using a spell from the Book of the Damned and sacrifices herself to throw them back into Hell. Both Sam and Dean are left devastated by her death. After Rowena's death, due to her having seemingly cursed her apartment to kill anyone who entered it other than Sam and Dean, other witches assumed that she had left her possessions for Sam to inherit, which led to Sam taking possession of Rowena's magical stash. Amongst these possession were Rowena's Journals, chronically her life's work in magic and all of her magical knowledge.

After going to Hell, Rowena becomes the new Queen of Hell as a damned soul, taking up the position once held by her son. Its implied that she has begun reshaping Hell to be a better place, holding receptions for newly-condemned souls.\

Rowena is an intelligent, cunning and extremely manipulative individual who takes great pride in her deceit and devious nature, describing it to her equally manipulative son as "who [they] are". Rowena often fluctuates between her mannerisms, sometimes presenting herself as calm and courteous and then suddenly vicious and violent when revealing her true intentions. She is exceptionally ruthless towards her enemies, whether they are people she loathes or disapproves of or someone who has simply annoyed her. She gruesomely kills the demon Raul after denouncing him as nothing more than "filth" and openly suggests to Crowley that he savagely rip a crossroads demon apart and brutally display his carcass for asking for recognition for his work, justifying this as a tyrannical threat not to waste the king's time.

Rowena has also demonstrated that she has no concern for innocent lives, as she frequently uses spells that result in their death by boiling their brains and impaling hotel employees to ceilings. She even points out to Dean that using the innocent against heroes like him will play out to her advantage. Furthermore, Rowena is dangerously wrathful, as she takes great pleasure in torturing Olivette for wronging her in the past and threatens to burn everything that Crowley cares for when he throws her out.

Rowena is highly ambitious and believes strongly in ruthlessly fighting and striving to gain power for the sake of greatness. She is very carefree and displays disregard and resentment for authority, openly and deliberately defying both Hell and the Grand Coven without fear of the consequences, preferring to use her magic whenever and however she wished. Olivette stated that while talented and skilled, she has always been reckless and egocentric.

Rowena often feigns a warm and sweet disposition towards others in order to manipulate them and gain their trust. Rowena claims to be extremely proud of her son, Crowley, and regrets abandoning him as a child. She states that she left him both for his safety and to further her career in witchcraft which she deemed "no environment to raise a child". However, it is highly implied she never cared for her son as a child, apparently trying to sell him for pigs on one occasion and abandoning him so she could live out her own selfish desires.

While she claims to love Crowley and regularly reminds him that they are family, it is later revealed that she is merely playing on his emotions, using it to manipulate and gain control over him so she can use his position as the King of Hell to her advantage and to further her own goals. Once Crowley realizes this with Dean's assistance and throws her out of his domain, she becomes disowning and berating and shows her hatred for him and her desire to destroy everything around him.

Although genuinely powerful and talented, Rowena's ego causes her to often overestimate her capabilities, both magical and manipulatory. Many of her failures are caused by her underestimating her opponents.

Like her son, Rowena is quick witted and sarcastic. However, unlike Crowley who believes in integrity, Rowena has no sense of loyalty. This is shown when she abandons a demon in Crowley's dungeon after the demon lied for her and helped her gain her freedom.

Rowena has shown that she is indeed capable of genuine love and affection, which she shows for Oskar, though she was willing to sacrifice him for her own freedom. Rowena later confesses that the reason she hates her own son is because if she did not she believes she would truly love him, but since love is a weakness, she vows to never feel helpless or weak again, like she did when Crowley's father impregnated her and then abandoned her. However, Rowena displays great admiration and affection for Lucifer but justifies it with the explanation that he is not a man but is what she views as "perfection". This admiration shatters after Lucifer makes an attempt on her life.

Crowley has described his mother as the type who would latch on to anyone with power and influence, including Lucifer, Amara, and God. Rowena has gone to great lengths to earn trust, despite never truly becoming loyal. Ultimately, Rowena values her own safety and survival above all else.

## Appearence

She is described as tall and beautifully androgynous with ashen blond hair and piercing grey eyes. She is also said to have a very distinct voice, what is called a "whiskey voice."

She was a sadistic sociopath who delighted in treating people like toys. From the age of seven, she was tortured by her father, who pushed her so hard that she broke.

"*I accidentally set my grandmother's house on fire when I was six, caused a blackout in four counties in Ohio when I was eight. I spent my ninth birthday in a glass room with an IV of Lithium in my arm. I've lived in this building for sixteen years, ever since the shrinks diagnosed me as a sociopath with paranoid delusions, but they were just out to get me because I threatened to kill them. I'm twenty-four years old, and I've never gone on a date, never been on a roller coaster, never been swimming. And now you know everything there is to know about me. I don't have the luxury of being more interesting than that.*"

## Personality

Elle constantly exhibited childlike and sadistic behaviour. She treated people like toys and often got a kick out of watching them suffer. She enjoyed shocking numerous people with her power just for the fun of it. When it came to her past Elle was incredibly private. She enjoyed being in control of the situation and the people around her. So far she had only ever opened up to Peter about her life. According to her she set her grandmothers house on fire when she was six, caused a blackout in four counties in Ohio when she was eight and spent her ninth birthday in a glass room with an IV of lithium in her arm. She endured brutal testing from her father as a child which could account for her numerous psychological problems. After losing her father and job Elle became increasingly depressed and wallowed in all the terrible things she had done in the past which caused her power to rage out of her control. She was constantly seeking approval and affection from her pushy and often cruel father but never got it. When she learned of some of the things he had done to her in her childhood she became increasingly wary of him and showed great sadness when he was dead. However she still tried desperately to exact vengeance on Sylar for killing him.

* He rarely speaks.

## Character Overview

Wearing a necklace which displays a symbol seen throughout the series, He did not speak in any episode until "Fallout," and his associate Eden McCain expressed the belief that he is mute. He kissed his necklace before erasing Matt Parkman's memory, and expressed a belief in God — specifically, a belief that superpowers are a gift from God, and should be respected.

**Lydia**, the "painted lady", was a member of the carnival and was one of Samuel's closest confidants. When she was very young, Lydia fell pregnant and left home. She went to the carnival and made a new life for herself but she never fully let the memory of her daughter leave. She tried desperately to make sure that Amanda did not follow in her footsteps and make the wrong decisions. Eventually realizing that Samuel's vision was not the right path, Lydia attempted to rebel against him alongside Claire Bennet but was eventually shot by Eli. Just before her death, Lydia's fears were realized as Samuel revealed his true intentions to her. Lydia was an evolved human with the ability to feel the wants and desires of others.

## Character History

Lydia was a member of the Sullivan Bros. Carnival and was one of Samuel's closest confidants.

Eventually realizing that Samuel's vision was not the right path, Lydia attempted to rebel against him alongside Claire Bennet but was eventually shot by Eli. Just before her death, Lydia's fears were realized as Samuel revealed his true intentions to her.

Lydia was an evolved human with the ability of empathy, feeling the wants and desires of others through touch. She uses her power with Sylar, using erotic touch in an attempt to make him more vulnerable, but he simply absorbed her ability.

* Lydia's name is most likely a reference to the circa 1940 song "Lydia the Tattooed Lady" made famous by Groucho Marx.
* According to the casting call, Lydia the "tattoo girl" is 22 to 28 years old, "a little gullible, follow others' lead, [h]as a mysterious side," and is "very sexy".

In Season 12, Rowena's personality shifts slightly. She becomes desperate for a normal life, having grown tired of the supernatural world and goes as far as to seek out romance, something she hasn't done for centuries. Unfortunately, her dreams are put on hold due to Crowley and Lucifer both seeking her out. Her poor choice in men also lead to misery. However, Rowena continues to act as a go-to ally for Sam and Dean whenever they need help. She reveals to Dean that her lust for power, which had compelled her to do horrible things throughout her life, no longer appeases her anymore after she witnessed the two most powerful beings in the Universe - God and The Darkness - still troubled by sibling rivalry. It was the realization that power could not bring true happiness that has changed Rowena in the recent months, and may have softened her heart.

However, even though aspects of her personality shifted, she is one to hold a grudge. She did not protest to her grandson's decision and even aided him in returning to the past and sealing his own death as she wanted to get back at her son, Crowley, for forcing her to kill Oskar, the boy she truly loved like a son, in order to remove the Mark of Cain.

After her second death at Lucifer's hands, Rowena has a more fearful personality and is far less manipulative. Privately, Rowena admits to Sam that after seeing Lucifer's true face, she is terrified of her future, especially as she believes that Lucifer will eventually return. While she seeks to gain her full powers back to ease this fear, Sam suggests that it won't be enough. Despite their past history and triple-crossing them, Rowena intervenes to save the Winchesters' lives when she could have let them die and it wasn't to her benefit to save them.

After Crowley's death, Rowena appears to express genuine grief, showing that despite her words she did truly care for Crowley. Rowena states that Crowley is her only son and she'd rather have a living son that hates her than a dead hero.

As a result of her incredible powers, Rowena relies on magic for basically everything to the point that she either doesn't consider or simply dismisses non-magical solutions, often to her detriment. In *Dark Dynasty*, Rowena was extremely dismissive of Charlie Bradbury's attempt to use technology to decode Nadia's Codex and through it the *Book of the Damned* despite her own troubles to do the same using magic. It wasn't until she discovered that Charlie succeeded in *The Prisoner* that Rowena admitted she was wrong at all. Additionally, in *The Bad Seed*, Rowena offered a magical solution to track down Castiel instead of the technological one the Winchesters were using. She also lacked understanding of tracking someone through their cell phone's GPS. In *Regarding Dean*, despite having access to the arsenal in the Impala and the Winchesters witch-killing bullets, Rowena preferred to rely on magic when going to face the Loughlin Family despite knowing how powerful they were and despite the fact that using the Winchesters weapons could work to her advantage. As a result, Rowena was nearly killed before Dean rescued her. In *Various & Sundry Villains*, when faced with a magic-proof zombie, Rowena didn't know how to fight back without being able to use her magic to attack. Until Dean ordered Rowena to shoot the zombie in the head, she never seemed to consider that option or any other non-magical one besides searching kitchen drawers for anything useful. Even after using the gun to kill the zombie and being aware that it was loaded with witch-killing bullets, Rowena chose to resort to magic to kill Jamie Plum and Jennie Plum instead of just shooting them.

Following the full restoration of her powers, Rowena found a sense of clarity and a realization that her magic had caused her to take everything meaningful in her life, especially her family and son, for granted. This, along with the grief she was still feeling over the death of her son, reached a point where she intended to force the hand of Death herself in an attempt to resurrect her only child. As she went onto state it was her fault as to how he turned out. This showed that she really did love her son and missed him. When Billie finally granted Rowena an audience she blatantly refused Rowena's attempt at blackmail and called her bluff of threatening to kill Sam, noting that once upon a time she would have done so, but that she is that person no longer. Advice from Billie, as well as Sam and Dean, along with her finally acknowledging all of her faults and misdeeds, appear to have moved Rowena to seek redemption.

Rowena's change of heart goes so far that she appears to have developed a conscience and genuine affection for the Winchesters. After accidentally blasting Lucifer to Apocalypse World, Rowena initially tries to take her chance to flee but can't bring herself to do it when she knows that she is the only hope for the people she has come to care for. As a result, instead, Rowena selflessly begins searching for a solution to the problem. Rowena's selfless actions and tireless search for an answer end up saving the day as she is able to hold the rift open just long enough for the Winchesters return with the people of Apocalypse World. Afterwards, while she promises not to forget that the Winchesters owe her one, she says it with a smile, indicating that she doesn't mean it and is saying it out of habit or that she doesn't mean anything sinister by her words. She later comes to help when Sam calls after she thinks it's Dean that's deathly ill, apparently having no ulterior motive at the time than a genuine desire to help Dean. She later came to help the Winchesters on a gorgon hunt simply because they called and asked for her help, though she chastised them for automatically suspecting a witch and for keeping secrets from her, secrets that she pointed were similar to the ones she used to keep when she was the villain. Again, Rowena's help appeared to be selfless and given simply because she could.

While she initially felt resentment about helping Jack, who was the son of the being who killed her twice, she was swayed into helping him once hearing his genuine gratitude to her for saving him from Michael and giving the refugees a better chance at living. She was seen flattered by this praise and decided to help when seeing his deteriorating condition. Rowena is noticeably distressed when telling the Winchesters that all they can do is be there for Jack as he dies. After discovering Jack alive and well, Rowena becomes concerned about his state and the secrets surrounding it. After discovering the nature of the magic keeping Jack alive, Rowena warns Sam and admits to being genuinely concerned by what she is sensing within Jack. Despite this and Jack being Lucifer's son, Rowena maintains a friendly relationship with Jack who in turn saves Rowena from possession by Michael. Upon learning Jack is dead, Rowena appears saddened.

Despite not getting along with and bickering with and frustrating Main Universe Charlie Bradbury, Rowena got along on well with the Apocalypse World Charlie, sharing a drink with her after the Exodus from Apocalypse World. As mentioned by Bobby, they even went so far as to embark on a road trip together, something that Mary and Bobby joked was trouble.

Over time, Rowena has changed to the point that she greatly cares about others even if she doesn't show it. Michael noted this and used it against Rowena to force her to say "yes" by threatening to return in a different vessel and using it to kill everyone in the bunker, while promising to leave them be should Rowena consent. Rowena reluctantly complies with the deal in an effort to save those she cares about.

At the end of her life, Rowena decides to sacrifice herself to save the world by using her own body to send all of the souls and demons released from Hell back. However, she has Sam kill her, both because every version of her death demands it and because she knows there's nothing that would cause her to take her own life. Rowena's selfless act leaves both Sam and Dean devastated and Castiel similarly saddened and regretful, showing just how much she had changed and just how much she had come to be cared for by those who once considered her their enemy. Following her death, Sam continues to be bothered by her loss for quite some time. It's suggested by Dean and assumed by other witches that Rowena considered Sam her protégé and that she thus left her magical stash for Sam alone.

After dying for the last time, Rowena proved resourceful enough to take power as the new Queen of Hell despite only existing as a damned soul. Despite ruling Hell now, Rowena retains her old personality and fondness for her friends, urging Dean and Castiel to mend their broken relationship and using all of the regrets of her own life, particularly her mistakes with Crowley, as an example, not wanting them to end up with the regrets she did. Rowena reassures Sam that he did the right thing in killing her and is happy in her new role in the afterlife. As the Queen of Hell, Rowena appears to have adopted a more benevolent stance for Hell and to be reshaping Hell to be a better place. Notably, the demon Gregor tells Sam and Dean that Rowena has begun greeting newly-condemned souls with receptions rather than the endless lines of Crowley or the torture typical of Hell. It was mentioned by Zack, a Crossroad Demon, that she has ceased any demon deals in favor of humans naturally going to their final destination.

## Physical Appearance

Rowena is a red-haired woman of shorter than average height. She usually wears long-sleeved dresses of various colors, from red, blue to black. Rowena is usually found wearing a small gold pendant necklace, but aside from this she carries or wears no other jewelry. As with her dresses, Rowena's hairstyle shifts between appearances. She sometimes ties it up in a loose bun or wears her hair down either in curls or straightened. She wears bold, colorful makeup and, like a typical witch, can sometimes be found clutching a book to her chest.

After Rowena removes the bindings on her magic, her irises begin to glow purple when she casts spells.

* When talking to Charlie Bradbury, Rowena states that they have a lot of similarities and describes Charlie as "a difficult and lonely childhood. Tragedy. Absent parents. Always outside the mainstream. Sexually progressive. Living in your own head for solace and direction" before gesturing to herself, indicating that this also describes Rowena's own past.
* She hates Crowley for two reasons: The first reason is that before she was a witch she was a destitute girl who she viewed as disgusting and weak and sees her old self every time she looks into Crowley's eyes. The second reason being that the man who was Crowley's father told Rowena that he loved her, impregnated her, and left her for another woman with a wealthy estate. As a result, she refuses to love Crowley because she does not want to feel weak or vulnerable anymore.
* Although she claims not to love Crowley for she sees love as weakness, Rowena came to adore Lucifer in a possibly romantic way. This affection would eventually lead to her brief demise.
* Rowena is the first female main antagonist to be killed since Abaddon in season 9. In her case, she was killed by the former main antagonist Lucifer rather than a Winchester or Castiel, though Lucifer killed her in Castiel's body.
	+ She is also the first main villain to be resurrected (not counting Crowley, who faked his death).
* She shares her first name with Rowena Ravenclaw, another Scottish witch from the *Harry Potter* universe.
* She was the first witch in the series that has been shown to use magic to resurrect herself without any assistance from higher beings.
* Chuck reveals that Rowena is "one of his guilty pleasures".
* Rowena has implied that she was a part of the assassination of American president Abraham Lincoln. As she told Sam, "I promised Lincoln a fun night at the theater".
	+ Though she may have made that promise unaware of the president's impending doom.
* Sam created the witch-killing bullets specifically to deal with Rowena in *Brother's Keeper*. In an ironic twist, Rowena's life was saved by Dean using the witch-killing bullets against Catriona Loughlin in *Regarding Dean*. Rowena later uses them herself in *Various & Sundry Villains* to kill a magical zombie, albeit because they were the kind of bullets Dean's gun was loaded with at the time when Rowena use it.
* Rowena's surname "MacLeod" may be a nod to Connor MacLeod, protagonist of the *Highlander* film series, starring Christopher Lambert as the titular Scotsman. Unlike Lambert, who is French, Connell is actually Scottish.
* Prior to *Regarding Dean*, Rowena never referred to herself, nor was she referred to by others, as "Rowena MacLeod", simply "Rowena".
* She was the last member of the MacLeod Family due to Crowley and Gavin's deaths.
* Rowena is Pagan, not Christian like Clea. She also states that she is Nature's worshiper.
* She is the third known lover of an Archangel (and the second lover of Gabriel), after Kali (Gabriel's first lover) and Kelly Kline (the lover of Lucifer).
* Despite her troubles with the Main Universe Charlie Bradbury in *Dark Dynasty*, Rowena appears to get along well with the Apocalypse World Charlie Bradbury. In *Let the Good Times Roll*, Rowena is mentioned to be "road-tripping it through the Southwest" with Charlie, causing Mary to joke that "that's trouble."
* She is strong enough to safely host the most powerful known archangel. According to him, this is due to her having been practicing powerful magic for hundreds of years. However, since he was exorcised out of her after a short time, it is unknown for how long she could have actually held up.
* Rowena's sacrificial act is similar to her son Crowley's in *All Along the Watchtower*. Both of their final words are nearly the same with Crowley's being "bye, boys" and Rowena's being "goodbye, boys."
* In *Golden Time*, it is indicated that both other witches and Dean consider Sam to be Rowena's protégé.
* Rowena lived in "The Aradia Apts". Aradia is a central figure of the modern pagan witchcraft revival, including Wicca and Stregheria and a deity worshiped by witches in Tuscany.
* Rowena is the first Ruler of Hell to be a damned soul.
* Rowena is mentioned to be associated with many celebrities such as the former American president Abraham Lincoln, the French military leader Napoleon Bonaparte and The Rolling Stones lead singer Mick Jagger.
* Rowena likes drinking martinis and playing poker with Republicans as revealed in *Mamma Mia* and *Regarding Dean*.

**Eve** was a mysterious and powerful being known by the title of **Mother of All**. She was in the depths of Purgatory until she was released by dragons and arrived on Earth using a young virgin girl as a vessel.Like the Leviathans, with whom she shared the Purgatory, Eve was part of existence before angels, which gave her an advantage over them, being able to inhibit them from using their holy powers.

Eve created the Alphas, which were the first monsters of their allotted kind from whom their entire species is descended. On her last appearance in this realm, she birthed two new species, both named by Dean: the first is a worm-like creature he dubbed the "Khan worm"; and the second (a mass-produced hybrid species which Eve perfected after a "Beta testing") Dean named "Jefferson Starships." Her only known weakness was Phoenix ash. She was killed by Dean, who mixed the ashes in his drink before meeting her; when she bit him to turn him into a monster, she ingested the ashes and died.

Her essence and what comprised her mortal form returned to Purgatory after her death. There, she later sought revenge upon Dean and Castiel for their actions when they returned to Purgatory in search of the Leviathan Blossom.

### Early life

Eve predated angels (except Archangels), which would dictate that she also existed before the creation of Hell, humans, and Demons. She claimed to have known God. Her origins seem to overlap with that of the Leviathans, a primordial, proto-monster species which also predated most other creations of God. In fact, one of her first children, the Alpha Vampire, implied in a hostile conversation with a high-ranking Leviathan, Edgar,that Eve was herself a Leviathan, saying "We come from you". Edgar acknowledged that the Monsters Eve sired do come from the Leviathans, though "barely", and confirmed that he knew Eve.

At some point of her long existence, Eve created the Alphas, which were the first monsters of their allotted species. Before re-emerging in the 21st century, Eve had last been on Earth around ten thousand years ago.

## Physical Appearance

Eve's true appearance was not known; however, a glimpse of it on a video camera revealed a gray, withered, somewhat shadowed face. In her introduction, her eyes glowed a fiery yellow-orange, but in the said recording they were milky-white. Upon her death, her veins darkened and she bled watery black blood like Leviathans.

When Eve manifested on Earth, she possessed the body of a young brunette girl wearing a white dress whom two dragons offered up to her as tribute. She briefly took on the form of Mary Winchester. After death her body was collected by Crowley who began an autopsy. Crowley found that her vessel's interior body cavity was *highly* altered with the addition of an egg sac containing hundreds if not thousands of eggs. Her brain also apparently maintained the empathetic link with her children even after her physical body's death.

## Personality

Like Death, Eve was normally content to uphold the natural order in which monsters and humans killed each other in turn; however, when Crowley began capturing, torturing, and killing her children in droves, she decided to turn every human into a monster to deprive him of the power of any souls that could be sent to Hell. She exhibited few emotions beyond serenity, but her decision to pose as a waitress merely to surprise Dean and Sam Winchester suggests that she had a sense of humor. She seemed to be upfront and honest when speaking with the Winchesters. She also had a mocking side to her sense of humor as she took their mother's form to taunt them.

Eve was largely apathetic towards the human race as a whole, but occasionally showed disdain or cruel amusement towards them. She began compelling even her benevolent children, such as Lenore, to kill or turn as many as possible against their will once she arrived on Earth, presumably to build her army. She went about trapping a bar filled with people, infecting some, and allowing the others to be killed while she watched on and casually sipped at a drink. However, she was initially willing to negotiate with the Winchesters if they agreed to help her capture Crowley.

When explaining what she had done to someone she had turned, Eve simply called her infection "a gift". She viewed herself as a loving mother with regards to all monsters descended from her. She was angered by Crowley's barbaric attempts to use her children to find Purgatory and arranged to be summoned onto Earth in order to stop him. While viewing herself as a loving and caring mother to her children, she is not above killing any of them if they pose a threat to her other children as she created special magic swords specifically designed for killing the very powerful dragons, should they become a threat to any of the other monster races she has made. She also seems to look down on God, whom she claimed to know, for having abandoned his children, i.e. humankind, something she claims she would never do.

## Powers and Abilities

Eve was very old and powerful, stronger than any monster. Her power compared to that of the Leviathans is thoroughly unknown. However, being related to them, she shared some abilities with the Leviathans, notably shapeshifting and a resistance to angelic powers. After the demise of the head Leviathan, Eve had some Leviathans under her command.

Eve was also one of the very few entities capable of creating new beings and one of the *only* beings with the rare ability of permanently altering souls to create monsters otherwise known as *Fallen Beasts*, a trait she passed on to all of her children. Eve also referred to the souls in Purgatory as her 'supply,' implying she could draw on souls for power, similar to angels and demons.

## Trivia

* Eve is the secondary antagonist for Season 6, having been a part of a Big Bad Ensemble for most of the season.
* Her name references the Biblical Eve, who is regarded as the mother of the human race in Abrahamic religions. According to executive producer and writer Ben Edlund, the name for *Supernatural*'s Eve is also a pun on the "eve" (the day before a holiday) of monsters as both their genesis point and her goal of a world ruled by them.
	+ The episode *Road Trip* confirms that the biblical Adam and Eve did exist in the Supernatural Universe.
* Her character borrows the title "The Mother of All Monsters" from Echidna of Greek mythology.
* Edgar said he knew Eve, referring to her as a "whore".
* Eve is implied to somehow be related to the Leviathans, seeing as when the Alpha Vampire stated, "We come from you" and "I am a son of Eve" in *There Will Be Blood* to Edgar, a Leviathan. Edgar, who claimed to have known Eve, does not deny the relationship between the two monster species, but he downplayed it, saying the Mother of All was a "mutt" and that the monsters she created only "barely" qualified as being related to the Leviathans. As such, it is implied Eve was a hybrid or a mutated offshoot of the Leviathan. She, in fact, shares many similarities with them: both are capable of suppressing angelic powers (even better than they, actually); both can shapeshift instantaneously and both bleed black blood. However, unlike the Leviathans, Eve did not require the DNA of the being whose form she copied in order to shapeshift, and her blood was more watery than Leviathan goo.
* Eve also appeared to have reciprocated Edgar's disposition towards her, as Eve considered her newly created children to be the "perfect beasts", despite the existence of the physically superior Leviathan.

* Even after her death, her body still produced new monster eggs.
* The book *Bobby Singer's Guide to Hunting* reveals that she had created the special magic swords (from which, only 5 or 6 remain) that are able to kill dragons to prevent them from growing too powerful and wiping out their "siblings".
* In the non-canon resource novel *Supernatural: The Men of Letters Bestiary: Winchester Family Edition*, Sam wrote that aside from being one of the most powerful entities they ever faced, Eve was also supposedly stronger than any angel or demon, and maybe even stronger than the Leviathan, to who she was related to somehow.
* Eve was the only known supernatural entity apart from angels, demons, and Leviathan to require a vessel to manifest on Earth.
* Despite taking a vessel, her true visage or at least a portion of it could be revealed on a camera recording.
* Eve's latest offspring remain linked to her, as shown when Crowley chopped into her dead brain and a nearby vampire was agonized.
* In addition to the Greek Echidna, as mentioned above, Eve also strongly resembles the Babylonian Tiamat, though she claims to have visited Earth more than 6,000 years before the founding of the first Babylonian dynasties (1894 B. C. E.), and the Semitic Lilith, not to be confused with the character of the same name.
* In the non-canon novel *Supernatural: Night Terror*, Sam theorizes that Eve used Night Hags or similar creatures to create many of her monsters.
* Sera Gamble revealed Dr. Eleanor Visyak was a similar creature to Eve.
* Dean described Eve as the wicked witch. The actual Wicked Witch would eventually appear in a later episode.

**God**, also known as **Yahweh**, **Allah**, **Christo**, and many other names, including his alter ego "**Chuck Shurley**", is the main antagonist of the CW television franchise *Supernatural*, serving as a supporting character in Seasons 4-5, one of the protagonists in Season 11, the final antagonist of Season 14, and the main antagonist of Season 15. He is the arch-nemesis of Sam & Dean Winchester.

He is an ancient primordial being who created the universe and nearly everything it contains, including the human soul. Amara, his twin sister, is the only entity surpassing his power and, prior to his demise, Death comparable to him in power. Together, God and The Darkness serve as the balance in the Universe, as the dark cannot exist without the light and vice versa. If either one of them is lost or destroyed, existence itself would cease. His sister couldn't resist destroying whatever God created, so God created four archangels and, with them by his side, waged war against her and eventually locked her away with a mark which he entrusted to his most loved and valued angel, Lucifer. However, over time, after God created the Universe, the mark corrupted Lucifer and drew him to rebel when God created humankind. After Lucifer was bound in Hell and Gadreel was locked away in Heaven's dungeon, God left Heaven and went into seclusion on Earth.

After thousands of years, God eventually reappeared and partially aided in The Apocalypse. After The Apocalypse was averted, he disappeared again. Six years later, when his twin sister Amara was released, God was originally willing to let his creations be wiped from existence and let Amara take over. But after being convinced by both Metatron and the Winchesters, God eventually decided to help stop Amara. After being fatally injured by his sister in a failed attempt to stop her, God was then healed by her and they both departed the Earth together.

God later returned to Earth once he received Castiel's prayer, God revealed that he had no method in helping with Jack and opted to have them kill him instead. However, Team Free Will saw through his ploy and accused him of manipulating events, resulting in him personally killing Jack and plunging the world into chaos to punish humanity for their defiance. However, during the confrontation, he was shot by Sam with The Equalizer, leaving God in a weakened and diminished state. He has since recovered and is at full power. Unknown to God, Billie has taken the opportunity to resurrect Jack and help the young Nephilim become powerful enough to kill God which is revealed to be a plan developed by Adam over the course of 300,000 years. Using Jack to kill Chuck and Amara turns out to be another one of God's plans to get the Winchesters to kill each other, although it ultimately fails.

Following his final attempt at getting the Winchesters to kill each other, God merges with Amara and begins wiping everyone from existence, planning on resetting the universe. The Winchesters are left with Jack powerless and most of their allies gone, including Billie who was planning to kill God in order to take power for herself. However, they are left with Chuck's Death Book, which reveals how God can be killed after the first attempt failed. God is later stripped of his power by Jack, rendering him mortal and making Jack the new God. The Winchesters and Jack choose to leave Chuck to live out a mortal life, eventually to age, sicken and die, alone and forgotten. As Sam continued to get older, so did Chuck. By the time Sam died, it is unknown if Chuck also died, or if he is somehow still alive.

After Chuck's defeat and Dean's death, it was discovered that Chuck had left behind a failsafe in case of his defeat: the Akrida, a race of monsters that Chuck had created to wipe out everything. However, with the help of Dean's intervention, the Akrida were destroyed by the Monster Club, foiling Chuck's last plan.

## Personality

The Darkness describes her brother as being prideful and egocentric, saying he created other things because he wanted to "be big" - although God admits this is true, he had also hoped to change her nature by showing her there could be things other than themselves, but he later deemed this as stupidity and naïveté on his part. When faced with the opportunity to reconcile with Lucifer, if he'd simply apologize for locking him away, Chuck opted to put all the blame on Lucifer in front of the Winchesters to save face. However, shortly after apporting the Winchesters away, he revealed that he'd only punished Lucifer because he hated himself for what his actions had done to his favorite son and apologized. After billions of years of observing his creations and living among them, his disappointment caused God to become somewhat cynical. He considered human nature to be toxic and was willing to let Amara destroy everything seemingly out of spite against humans, for fighting wars in his name and then begging him to fix everything, and generally not taking responsibility for their failures, as well as Angels out of disappointment of their actions. He also considers his creations to be experiments and also revealed that he abandoned the angels and humanity because they'd disappointed him. He later admits to Dean that it's more than disappointment: while he'd once taken an active role in his creations' lives, he realized that he was hindering them more than anything and he needed to let them find their own way like a parent with their child. Despite everything that's happened since he did so, God believes he made the right decision. However, following the revelation that Chuck views Sam and Dean, and seemingly his creations generally, as story characters for him to manipulate and observe for his own entertainment, much of this has been implied to be a façade masking his true colors. Lucifer suggested that Chuck's apology to him was merely because Chuck needed his help against the Darkness which, given what has subsequently been seen of his personality, is likely true. However, there are some ideas that even Chuck finds too disgusting to include for his characters, as shown by his genuine disgust at the idea of him being responsible for the relationship between Dean and Amara.

Alternate Michael suggests God creates other worlds and abandons them once they fail him in a way. While it has not been confirmed whether this is true, his dismissive reaction to Sam questioning him on it may suggest there is some truth to it, though at the same time he did seem offended when Sam appeared to believe Michael, but whether it was a faked reaction to keep his true intentions concealed remains unknown.

Despite his sister's claims that he encouraged religion, which she called "monuments to his ego", God often asks people not to refer to him as "God", and to use the moniker "Chuck" instead. He also stated that people bowing before him had always made him feel "deeply, deeply uncomfortable". When Metatron did this upon seeing his true form, God pulled him up and asked him not to do it again since it made him uncomfortable. However, God is fully aware of his nigh-omnipotence and does not hesitate to point out that he could do things most beings could not, as he simply said that he is God when Sam questioned on how he simply snapped his fingers to cancel Jack's influence and insisted that the Equalizer could kill anything. The deity Fortuna states God created her kind, as while he was angry humanity didn't honor him, he saw a purpose for the deities to serve as the fall guys for natural disasters. Despite his immense power, however, God is shown to be rather capable of taking potential threats seriously, as he not only indicated with apparent concern when Sam stated he feared what Jack could become that it was true but even though he could have continued manipulating Sam and Dean by just letting Dean spare Jack, he insisted on Jack being killed and even did it himself. Jack himself admitted the reason why his grandfather chose to kill him was because he was scared he could be able to kill God.

At first, despite his disappointment and cynicism, God apparently still maintained a level of compassion and care for his creations deep down and it was just buried by the resentment he felt over how both humans and angels had failed him. This was proven by how he appeared to be worried about Castiel as he was about to be killed by Raphael and patted him on the shoulder to comfort him in his rebellion, resurrected Castiel on three occasions, despite what he had done, secretly helped Dean in averting the Apocalypse, and being pleased at how Marie put his books in a play. Even at his worst with everything that had happened caused by the angels, with particular disappointment towards the archangels, as evidenced when Chuck strummed faster in an irritated manner just from hearing Metatron ask him to write more on them, and humans, where he at first allowed Amara to destroy them, he appeared to show some feelings of genuine regret and sadness when Metatron confronted him for leaving even despite bitterly stating that they had disappointed him and was ultimately moved when Metatron revealed the flaws of God's approach with a moving speech of humanity's better traits into finally taking action in order to save an infected town from his sister. He was even willing to surrender himself to Amara so that his creations would be safe, showing a lack of concern of what would happen to him that baffled even Dean. He also comforted Dean on his background with his father but told him not to compare him to John. Even though he had bitterly resented Lucifer for his rebellion, even lashing out when Sam and Dean asked for his rescue, he still showed a level of guilt and remorse for his fall, as he sadly said Lucifer wasn't a villain despite having been earlier irritated by Metatron's reminder of Lucifer's rebellion, and even appeared to have been willing to forgive him after he decided to fight alongside him, healing him of his injuries in their reunion and doing everything to talk him out of the spite he felt towards him, even eventually apologizing.

Like Death, God seems to have a taste for what Dean calls "cheap food". He also likes taking long showers. God was described by Metatron in *Sacrifice* as "Larger than life, gruff, a bit of a sexist. But fair, eminently fair". This fairness seems to be shown by how God, while willing to forgive Metatron for his offences, refused to give back Metatron's powers. Despite mainly writing all that Sam and Dean experienced, including their thoughts even when they were thinking of negative things, God did seem to have limits to what he wanted to let know on in his books, as he chose to not let Sam's addiction be known to prevent him from appearing unsympathetic.

He has a humorous side as when asked by Metatron as to why he hid himself, he explained that he wanted to see everything while being in plain sight and admitted he enjoyed acting as a human to fool those around him.

While not easy to anger, once enraged, his anger is considerably large as he can easily be cold, violent, insulting, and even somewhat sadistic, as shown by how after being outraged when Metatron called him a coward, God swiftly responded with fury, throwing him out of the bar and coldly telling him that while Metatron and the rest of the angels may consider Metatron's position as the Scribe of God to be special, to God, Metatron was never anything special, just the closest angel to the door, and took time to show Metatron of how a town is going to be destroyed by the fog unleashed by Amara, relishing in his devastated expression. Later on, this rage is shown when Dean and Sam asked Chuck to rescue Lucifer. At which, Chuck, frustrated by their insistence, immediately expresses his bitterness of Lucifer's disappointment. Although Metatron was actually gleeful on how he managed to make God angry and Lucifer showed no qualms in angering God; Sam and Dean, having never seen God in a rage, were visibly shocked and intimidated enough to be put to place swiftly and not talk on it anymore. His rage is well-known even though he has only been seen by a few angels, to the point that the usual petty and arrogant Zachariah was terrified enough at the prospect of God unleashing his wrath upon him to immediately back down from pursuing Sam and Dean. At first, when Sam, Dean, and Castiel called him out on manipulating their lives and defied his will, God, although clearly angry at their defiance, tried to reason with them to make them do it and offered to bring back Mary for Sam and Dean in exchange and when they persisted, God merely responded by giving them a cold smile and personally killing Jack (his own grandson) painfully, appearing to not find them worthy of unleashing his anger fully, but upon being shot by Sam with his own created gun, God lost control of his anger and mercilessly declared the end for them, punishing them and the world by starting The Apocalypse again. Notably, despite their defiance of him, all three of them expressed genuine fear when God raged at them. Later on, when Sam and Dean once again managed to stop themselves from killing each other, Chuck displayed great rage at them for continuously defying him, even physically slamming his hands together as he raged on how his best efforts were for naught and coldly telling Dean screw you when Dean told him to screw off. God also did not hesitate to destroy Michael for his brief betrayal but this was only after he thanked him for giving him a warning about the Winchesters.

In the time since Sam and Dean have turned on him, Chuck has shown himself to be in actuality incapable of viewing anything besides himself and his sister as anything more or less than toys, which exist to entertain him and for him to manipulate as he wishes; a trait consistent with sociopaths and psychopaths. He's shown a callous side to humanity since opening the Rupture to Hell; when he smote Amara's masseuse for no reason, and massacred an entire casino and forced the sole surviving staff-member to continue pleasing him and serving drinks under the subtle threat of doing the same to her. It also turned out that Chuck sent the soul of Kevin Tran to Hell instead of Heaven despite the latter doing nothing to deserve that, and only let the souls of John Winchester and Bobby Singer into Heaven because he favored Sam and Dean at the time. He also bestowed good luck on Sam and Dean, preventing them from suffering normal things but took it away after they fell out of favor. One of the most apparent examples of Chuck's lack of empathy was when he decided to wipe out every alternate universe he'd created except the Main Universe, committing the most evil and terrible act any *Supernatural* villain has ever successfully enacted (though Amara and Alternate Michael previously threatened to do the same or similar). He even walked out of the RadioShed with a smile on his face before destroying Earth 2. Chuck later reveals that the main reason that he decided to destroy his creations was because he had lost all hope and expectations in them: He had tried his best to find contentedness and happiness in his creations and the Winchesters, but in his eyes, no matter how hard he tried, they only continued to disappoint and defy him. Later on, he decided to exterminate humanity just to punish the Winchesters and Jack by forcing the trio to live on an empty planet and ruthlessly killed Michael despite him having turned to his side for his early betrayal. This lead to his deserved ending at the hands of Jack and the Winchesters, which is in irony what he had tried to inflict on the Winchesters and even worse: He is left as a powerless mortal who can get sick and eventually die, with no hope of ever regaining any sort of power, and will live the rest of his human life forgotten and alone with no one caring about him.

Chuck asked his sister to go with him to another universe where they can start over. However, his actions were a ploy for her to heal his injury and restore his power. He was disappointed at her refusal and criticism of his treatment to the world though his attempt to get her to leave with him might've been genuine. After being severely weakened and diminished by Sam's shot with The Equalizer, Amara realizes that God's now terrified. However, she sees that he is still the petulant and narcissistic being he always was while Amara has changed, she wants nothing to do with her brother, accepting coexistence with him but not wanting to be anywhere near him while doing it. After a talk with Becky Rosen, he appears to have overcome his fear and put in writing an ending to Sam and Dean. He showed a sadistic side and thought of ways of getting to the ending. This is further seen when he banished Becky and her family not too long after revealing his status as God to her and taking pleasure in her grief, though he did say he hadn't just killed them (possibly planning to create a story using them, or showing genuine mercy). He appears to express some genuine sympathy towards his sister when she breaks down, having believed Dean really cared for her, and reveals that he still hasn't given up on creating, wishing to create something new together and establish a new balance.

According to Metatron's annotated notes on the Demon Tablet, God has a secret fear that is always there and which he only shared with his favorite. Though this is believed to be Michael as Lucifer was locked away at the time the tablet was written, it may also not be given God's numerous worlds and multiple variations of Michael.

When God attempts to cut into Sam's shoulder and remove the thing that is tying them together, he hesitates and visibly grimaces. Sam realizes that despite his great power, God actually doesn't like to get his hands dirty and prefers watching others do his work for him. While God dislikes getting his hands dirty, when he was confronting Sam and Dean after killing Michael and everyone else on Earth, he decided to get his hands dirty to make them suffer, and showed no hesitation in beating the two to a pulp.

God later reveals to a RadioShed clerk on Earth 2 that none of his other worlds bring him the joy of the Universe, his original creation. This is primarily due to Sam and Dean who God is shown to respect the fact that they challenge, disappoint and surprise him constantly. God calls them "the ones" before deciding to destroy every other universe to get rid of all of his distractions.

True to Amara's claim that Chuck created things because he wanted something else to be bigger than, it's indicated Chuck enjoys lording over and feeling superior to others. Chuck expressed frustration at Sam's persistent defiance in particular, when he unsuccessfully tried forcing Eileen to remove the Equalizer bullet. He later showed a similar attitude when Sam and Dean once again foiled his plans for them to kill each other over Jack's sacrifice, frustratingly commenting on how stubborn and broken they were and likewise showing irritation when he commented on how Castiel of the main universe was the only one who defied him. Before destroying Earth 2, Chuck visibly reveled in the RadioShed clerk's desperate groveling, petting him on the face in a master-to-dog like manner and assuring the clerk everything would be fine. He also shows extreme arrogance, laughing at the idea of Jack killing him and believing that he cannot be beaten even while not able to read his Death Book and opting to beat the Winchesters hand-to-hand, continuing to do this despite being able to effortlessly kill them in order to truly break them, which ultimately lead to his complete defeat as the power released by both his brutal attack on Sam and Dean and his murder of Michael made Jack impervious to God's previous ability to smite him easily and he was subsequently effortlessly overpowered and drained of all his powers in moments. The deity Fortuna stated God was initially outraged that humanity refused to acknowledge his benevolence and created the Deities to serve as fall guys for when things go wrong.

After being defeated and having his powers drained by Jack, Chuck was speechless to see that he had been outsmarted by the Winchesters. Chuck showed no ill will to being defeated, complementing the Winchesters for their ingenuity, stating that's why they are his favorites. He even asked that they be the ones to kill him now that he was mortal, since it would be an honor to die by their hands. However, it turns out that Chuck is actually afraid of having to live as a mortal and be forgotten and alone, as he was visibly horrified when Dean and Sam reveals that their revenge will be Chuck having to live a mundane existence as a human and when he dies, no one will care or remember him and was swiftly reduced to groveling and begging them not to leave him to live a mundane existence as a mortal, to no avail, showing how Chuck is so desperate to have his way with things that even if he loses, he still wants to go out in a way he wants and completely breaks down when he is refused it. Furthermore, during his fruitless begging, he never said even one word of apology, indicating his lack of shame or remorse for any of his misdeeds, only pleading for them to help him, showing how Chuck is so unashamed of his crimes that he still has the gall to ask for the help of those who he had earlier tortured and revealing he can be reduced to being a total coward while still not feeling any remorse and only concern for himself, showing his egomania. In turn, the Winchesters are shown to no longer consider him worthy of their time or any kind of a threat as they simply ignore Chuck and drive away.

## Characteristics

While his twin sister Amara is darkness and nothingness, God represents light and being. He is one of the two fundamental components of reality itself, while the other one is his sister. If one of them dies, reality itself would cease to exist.

## Physical Appearance

**Fortuna**: Yeah, that's him.

God's true visage has only been seen by a few beings, but it appears to be similar to the appearance of an angel's grace - a blinding white light - though unlike an angel's true form, God's real visage has no ill-effects on humans. As seen in Alpha and Omega, he takes the appearance of a smoke of light. Only his twin sister, Amara has seen God, as well as the Horseman Death, since they have existed alongside God from nearly the beginning of time. Anna Milton once mentioned that, out of all the Host of Heaven, only four of them have seen God (most likely the four archangels). It is later revealed that Metatron has also seen God, due to being his scribe while writing down his Word. Metatron also hinted that the angel Gadreel, as God's most trusted angel, has seen God, as Metatron said, "*You were God's most trusted. That's why he chose you to protect the garden.*" Additionally, although he does not see him, it was originally assumed that the angel Joshua talks to God, however it is later revealed to be the other way around. Joshua says that he thinks God talks to him because he (Joshua) can sympathize for God, as a fellow gardener but also because God gets lonely.

When God wanted to physically communicate with Sam and Dean, he took the form of a human and assumed the role of a prophet named Chuck Shurley. Chuck's appearance is that of a man in his late 30s to his early or mid-40s, with a beard and messy hair. He has light blue eyes and is rather short in height. God considers this form "a gift", and describes it as "super cute". When Dean described God to Fortuna, she recognized him, suggesting that God has used this form for millennia.

## Trivia

* God can be considered the primary Big Bad of the *Supernatural* series as a whole.
* As Chuck, God hints that he is a "cruel, capricious god" in his first encounter with the Winchester Family, but Sam tells him that he is not a god.
* Of the five times that Castiel has died, God has resurrected him three times: once after Raphael killed him, then when Lucifer killed him, and again when the Leviathans destroyed his body to escape. God confirms this in *Don't Call Me Shurley* when he claims that he has "rebuilt Castiel more times than I can count."
* Three of the greatest antagonists in the show - Michael, Lucifer and Metatron - have seen God face-to-face, and all three have previously been loyal followers of his.
	+ Michael is the only one of these three who hasn't met "Chuck," but he is aware of God's masquerade after Castiel showed his memories to Michael.
	+ During Inherit the Earth, Michael finally sees his father in the form of Chuck before being killed by him for his betrayal.
* According to Sam in *Phantom Traveler*, God's name in Latin is "Christo," and speaking it to a possessed person makes them flinch. In truth, God in Latin is not "Christo," but "Deus." "Christos" would be "*Christ*" in first century Greek, translated from the Hebrew "Moshiach" (English: Messiah) both meaning the "Anointed One." It was modified and changed by the Romans into the Latin "Christus" meaning Christ, or sometimes mistakenly "Chrestus," the "Marked Man." "Christo" could arguably work to the same effect as was depicted, literally meaning "by/in Christ" in Latin.
* In *Road Trip*, it is revealed that God left Heaven due to Gadreel failing in his task to protect the Garden of Eden from evil. Later, in *Don't Call Me Shurley*, God says he left because he was disappointed by all of his creations.
* In Season 7, Death alludes to how God regards his creations as experiments when he speaks of the Leviathans, saying that God was worried the Leviathans would "chomp the entire petri dish," a petri dish being is a piece of equipment often used in experiments. God seemingly confirms this during his conversation with Metatron in *Don't Call Me Shurley*, but in *All in the Family*, he reveals that he at least sees humanity as his children.
* Joshua implied that the angels believed God would eventually return to Heaven but that no one knew when he would do so, if at all.
	+ Amara briefly takes God to Heaven in *Unity* in an attempt to appeal to his desire to be praised.
* Since his introduction in season 4, God's on-screen appearances have been scarce, but he has been mentioned many times since the start of the series.
	+ God has been mentioned the most by the Archangels, Metatron, Death, and Amara.
* In *Don't Call Me Shurley,* God reveals that he disguised himself as Chuck, a Prophet of the Lord, so he could get a "front row seat."
* In *Don't Call Me Shurley*, God tells Metatron he is working on a new series called "Revolution," although he doesn't think it will catch on.
	+ This is a reference to the TV series of the same name created by Eric Kripke, the creator of Supernatural.
* In *Don't Call Me Shurley*, God reveals that he is bisexual.
* God told Metatron that he has no soul but that creating souls made him feel nauseous.
* God has said that he considers music and nacho cheese to be mankind's greatest creations.
* God has a blog about cats.
* In *All in the Family*, God often uses his powers with finger movements such as snapping or waving his fingers. Metatron also referred to this sarcastically when talking about how people envision God. However, he could also use his powers without any gestures or bodily movements, such as when he sent Metatron flying through the doors of his bar just by looking at him.
* Like Death, God has a fondness for unhealthy food.
* At PHXCON 2016, actor Rob Benedict confirmed that there was an early draft in Season 11 where God died. "There was an early script draft this season where God died. CW stepped in and said they couldn't kill God."
* God's relationship to Amara is similar to the Chinese philosophy of Yin and Yang, or the belief of contradictory forces being complimentary and interdependent, balancing each other out (such as light and dark, life and death, or good and evil). Their similarities are furthered in *Alpha and Omega*, as God and the Darkness are shown circling each other in their respective white and black smoke forms, seemingly referencing the symbol for Yin and Yang.
* The Shadow stated that The Empty existed before even the Darkness or God and that the latter has no power there.
	+ It is currently unknown if the Shadow is also that old or what its relationship with God is. However the Entity made no mention of Amara aside from the Empty existing before her.
* In *The Born-Again Identity*, Castiel names himself Emmanuel. The name Emmanuel is a Hebrew baby name that means "God with us". It is also an Old Testament name for the Messiah.
* Before *Unity*, only seven angels had ever met God in person: Michael, Lucifer, Raphael, Gabriel, Gadreel, Metatron, and Castiel. During *Unity*, he meets six more angels, which increases the number to thirteen.
* In *Nihilism*, Alternate Michael suggests that God treats the multiverse as a writer does his written works -- when a universe doesn't work out, he creates a new one, and repeats this process in hopes of creating a perfect universe.
	+ In *Moriah*, God reveals that of all of the versions of Sam and Dean Winchester he has created, the main-universe's were his favorite. He also denied that he sees the other universes as failed drafts, though this may have been a lie.
	+ During *Our Father, Who Aren't in Heaven*, the main-universe Michael believes the same thing, as he didn't know there were other Archangels.
	+ Furthermore, in *The Trap*, God revealed that the other versions of Sam and Dean in Sam's visions had suffered more terrible fates.
	+ God's statements to the Radio Shed Clerk in *Galaxy Brain* indicate that he does see the other universes and versions of Sam and Dean as failed drafts to a degree, due to the fact they do not give him the same joy that the main universe Sam and Dean do.
* Jack is the first character God has killed on-screen. Previous to the start of the series, God is known to have wiped out other Nephilim and every hellhound except for Ramsey, who Lucifer snuck away.
* In *Raising Hell*, God reveals that he watches *Game of Thrones*.
* Also in *Raising Hell*, God reveals that he was weakened by The Equalizer and the wound causes him to share a link with Sam.
* Though not considered a deity in the series' usual sense, Crowley has referred to God as a "rascally deity."

**Anna Milton** was a fallen angel who became the human daughter of Richard and Amy Milton by removing her grace. Due to her newly reawakened ability to hear angels speaking, she was pursued by demons and angels alike. Sam and Dean protected her until she managed to regain her grace and fend off her pursuers herself, even briefly becoming lovers with Dean. Due to Castiel's betrayal, the Host of Heaven eventually captured Anna and took her back to Heaven. She returned to Earth in *The Song Remains the Same* with the intent to prevent The Apocalypse from having occurred by killing John and Mary Winchester to retroactively erase Sam and Dean Winchester from existence. She was killed by Michael to protect the Winchesters.

## Appearance

Anna's true form was composed of bright light that blinded and could even kill humans upon direct eye contact; she also had wings, as seen when right before she vanished after regaining her grace. Her human body was that of a pale-skinned young woman who was 5'6" with long red hair, wide hazel eyes, and small moles on her cheeks. Her hair was a very dark, vivid shade of red in Season 4 which had lightened to auburn by the time she reappeared in Season 5. Anna wore a pair of white and blue scrubs at Connor Beverly Behavioral Medicine Center. Once she escaped the mental institution, she began wearing a frilly button-down white shirt and jeans with a green jacket, the last of which she later swapped out in favor of a navy coat that went down to mid-thigh. Her body was destroyed by her grace in "Heaven and Hell", but she had it restored by calling in "favors" from an unknown entity and used it as her earthly vessel until her death.

## Personality

Anna was earnest, compassionate, and trusting to a fault: despite the horror she felt at Ruby's true face, she accepted that Ruby was indeed different from other demons and treated her in a friendly manner after she saved Anna's life, and repeatedly tried to protect and guide Castiel despite the fact that he had orders to kill her, because she did not believe he would even try. She held a bitter grudge against anyone who broke that trust or otherwise hurt her, though she would still willing to help that person. Anna was initially timid, distressed, and uncertain when the brothers met her, but became more authoritative and reserved upon regaining her memories and even more so when she regained her grace. She was extremely dedicated to any cause she pledged herself to, as Castiel noted that the only way of stopping her would be killing her. Like Gabriel, she enjoyed sex and sweets. Although it can assumed Dean is the first person she had ever had sex with, which is what ignited her craving for it. Also like Gabriel, Anna was very secluded and preferred to be left alone unless put in certain circumstances.

Anna was dissatisfied with her existence as an angel. She disliked the strict rules governing her, and also admitted to not understanding God. While at first she longed to return to Heaven during her station on Earth, she grew hungry for humanity and risked the wrath of her family by falling for the sake of her own happiness; this shows that Anna had a certain recklessness and selfishness. She feared punishment for her disobedience to such a degree that she had to go to a psychiatrist as a child, but once she repressed her true identity, she became happy and well-adjusted with many friends and a promising future.

She resented her siblings for their treatment of her as an abomination, but also wanted their companionship and actively encouraged them to join her. This was seen when she implored Castiel to think for himself though she was heartbroken by his betrayal. In their next meeting, Anna was resentful to him and didn't hesitate to make it known and only stopped after he threatened her to protect his friends, even seeming proud of his change.

Unlike many other angels (besides Gabriel and Castiel), Anna viewed humans as superior to her own kind; she especially valued their capacity for emotions. Her attachment to humanity was one of her strongest traits: she tore out her own grace to experience life as a human, she confessed to Dean that she would have preferred not to turn back into an angel, and she betrayed Sam and Dean in attempt to stop The Apocalypse, which would save billions of lives and preserve free will.

Anna was willing to commit extreme actions for the greater good. She killed her brother Uriel to prevent him from serving Lucifer, as well as to save Castiel. In her desperation to stop the Apocalypse, she decided first to kill Sam to prevent Lucifer from using him as a vessel and then to undo the Apocalypse entirely by killing John and Mary to prevent from Sam and Dean from existing in the first place, despite her alliance with Sam and Dean and her affection for Dean in particular. However, although Anna could not be swayed once she made her decision, she regretted doing what she saw as necessary in attacking the Winchesters, and repeatedly apologized to them.

## Trivia

* Anna was intended to replace Castiel, who was supposed to be killed by Alastair in *On The Head Of A Pin*, as Dean's angelic guide. Due to Castiel's immediate popularity with critics and fans alike, much of Anna's role was given to him instead. Instead, Anna was the one to be killed off.
* Anna shared some traits with legendary female warrior Joan of Arc, as both believed they could hear angels speaking, participated in battles as commanders and warriors, and were burned alive.
* Anna was the first angel to lose her grace and become human, also the first one to be reborn as a human. Her case is unlike or inconsistent with other angels who go through the same process in the future such as Castiel and Metatron, who simply become human and bound to their vessels as their bodies while she was reborn as a human infant and gained her own body.
* Anna is thus far the only angel who did not have to ask permission from her vessel in order to possess it, as it was her body to begin with.
* Anna suppressed her memory of having been an angel after she fell, and had to regain it through hypnosis. In Season 7, Castiel also lost his memories of being an angel, and regained them in *The Born-Again Identity* by smiting demons.
* It was Anna who first introduced the angel banishing sigil to Dean and Sam, in *Heaven and Hell*. Ironically, they used this same sigil against her in *The Song Remains the Same*. This becomes a common way of dealing with angels through the series.
* Anna was the first character to kill an angel on-screen.
* Anna is the first being to die on-screen by having a powerful angel incinerate them. In *The Future*, Castiel incinerated the Prince of Hell Dagon in a similar way while empowered by the unborn Nephilim Jack. In *Bring 'em Back Alive*, the archangel Gabriel was able to incinerate the Prince of Hell Asmodeus with a hand gesture.
* Before Anna's death, angels who were killed on-screen were done so with Angel Blades. Subsequently, Lucifer was shown to be able to kill angels by exploding them at the molecular level, something Raphael did to Castiel off-screen in *Lucifer Rising*.
* The manner in which Anna fell is forced upon other angels by Metatron in *Sacrifice*. He takes Castiel's grace by force and uses it to make all other angels fall to Earth like meteorites. Unlike Anna, they didn't lose their grace.
* A lot of events that Anna has been through Castiel would also go through such as losing her grace, losing her memory, going rogue against their friends and being killed by an archangel, though Castiel would be brought back, and he was killed by two different archangels.
* Anna also said that she would be able to prevent the angels from resurrecting Sam by "scatter[ing] his cells across the universe".
* Anna is so far the only angel that Dean has had sex with.
* Anna is one of only five angels ever banished by Sam with the angel banishing sigil. The second was Lucifer in season 11 with the third and fourth being Lily and Conrad at the same time in Season 13, and the alternate timeline Castiel in season 14.
* Anna is the first angel the Winchesters attempted to kill, albeit without much success. Later, Sam, Dean and Mary would all kill at least one angel each.
* Anna's tendency to teleport extensively in battle to avoid attacks and catch her enemies by surprise is similar to the Prince of Hell Dagon as seen in *The Future*. Ironically, they were both burned to death by an angel in the end.
* During the fight in the garage, Anna was sliced across the palm with an angel blade by Mary Winchester. This caused her pain and blood to appear. In *Reading Is Fundamental*, the angel Inias suffered the same kind of injury inflicted by the demon Meg. However, when Meg slashed his palm with an angel blade, the wound started glowing.
* Anna Milton is portrayed by Julie McNiven, the wife of Michael Blackman Beck, the actor who portrayed Howard in *Plucky Pennywhistle's Magical Menagerie*, season 7.

## History

### Background

Created by God before the creation of the human race, Anna served as Castiel and Uriel's superior. Anna was particularly close to Castiel, who noted that they had "been through much together." Anna never met, saw, or heard from God, but initially followed what she believed to be his orders out of pure faith and fruitlessly awaited his return to Heaven.

Anna observed humans and became loving of them for their emotions particularly loyalty, forgiveness and love, coming to believe that her own kind were emotionless and without any will of their own in comparison. She also became fond of the idea of chocolate cake and sex. Wanting to experience life as a human herself, she removed her grace in March 1985 through an agonizing process she compared to cutting out one's own kidneys using a butter knife. Anna and her grace fell separately to Earth at high speeds; to onlooking humans, they resembled meteorites.

Anna was reborn as the human daughter of infertile couple Richard and Amy Milton in northwestern Ohio in December 1985 with the new name Anna Milton. Because Amy had not been able to get pregnant before conceiving Anna, she called Anna her "little miracle." When Anna was a toddler, she panicked in Richard's presence because she believed that her "real" father would kill her for her disobedience. Her outbursts were such that the Miltons took her to a child psychologist for therapy. Anna gradually repressed her memories of her origins, and convinced herself that she was a normal human. As a young woman, she attended college as a journalism major.

On September 18, 2008, the day Castiel resurrected Dean Winchester from Hell, Anna heard an angel say "Dean Winchester is saved" inside her head. After that, she started to hear other angels talking. They talked so often about Dean and Sam Winchester that Anna felt as though she personally knew the Winchester brothers; she learned that some believed that Dean could save them while some "didn't like" Sam at all. Anna became hysterical when trying to warn people about the oncoming Apocalypse and had to be subdued by four men. She was subsequently committed to the Connor Beverly Behavioral Medicine Center with a diagnosis of schizophrenia. She drew pictures of the seals Lilith broke and scribbled messages pertaining to them in a sketchbook.

## Trivia

* Bobby's books contain a note that labels releasing Death as the seventh seal.
* In *Two Minutes to Midnight*, Death travels in a pale grey 1959 Cadillac Coupe Deville which represents his "pale horse".
	+ Death's license plate reads "BUH BYE", an allusion to the power he wields over life and death.
* Julian Richings played Death in a short movie for a convention. The short was called "Dave Vs. Death".
* Coincidentally, Julian Richings played Charon, ferryman of the River Styx, who transports newly deceased souls to the Greek Underworld in the 2010 film *Percy Jackson & the Olympians: The Lightning Thief*.
* Death is the only Horseman to be killed and not just defeated. Despite their defeat or demise, the Horsemen's attributes continue to exist as forces of nature and natural order. This allows for the Horsemen to possess different incarnations in the physical realms, such as Billie taking the old Death's job despite being killed first.
* According to the reaper Billie, all reapers are waiting for the opportunity of punishing the Winchesters after one of them (or both) dies by sending them to the Empty, from where they'll never manage to escape back to Earth because neither Heaven nor Hell can bring someone back from the Empty, because of their roles in killing their boss. However, after Billie became the new Death it seems to be annulled, as she sent a reaper to look after them.
* Julian Richings has stated that he believes Death to be alive and continues to hint at a possible return. He has stated this at DCCon 2016, SPNJax jaxCon 2017, and SPN Houston 2017. However, he has stated that he does not fully know when that return will be as he claims "The producers have not given his character a fixed date of return". However, with Billie becoming the "new" Death, it is uncertain if, how, or when the latter will make a return.
* Death is the only Horseman confirmed to predate the Universe.
* The Darkness stated that she did not know Death, which might bring into question Death's statement about him possibly being older than God.
* Disregarding flashbacks, Death is one of two Horseman to have appeared in more than one episode, the other being Pestilence. However, he is the only Horseman to have appeared in more than one season, and have a role besides being one of the driving forces of the Apocalypse.
* In *Moriah*, God said that this Death "was all about fried pickles and tickle porn."

## Physical Appearance

Death's true form was heard in *Abandon All Hope...*, when he ascended from his cell, with tremendous wings convulsing.

Unlike his reapers, Death is dressed in a dark business suit and wears a long black topcoat over it, as opposed to mortician wear which the reapers (except Tessa, Billie, and rogue reapers) are clothed in. He also carries steel-tipped cane and is indeed very thin like Bobby's wife described. He also appears to have overly large pupils that expand like the sockets of a skull depending upon his mood. His ring is pure silver and has a white stone set in it.

## Personality

Death displays a matter-of-fact, detached, sardonic and quick-witted attitude, Dispassionate, and even icy, he is not without honour and even nobility. Due to his nigh-omnipotent power and his incredibly advanced age, Death is completely distanced from the rest of the universe, rarely showing himself connecting to the people or beings who live within it. He even went so far as to compare Dean to a bacterium, as if to state that his view on the importance of humans is just like how humans view the importance of bacterium. The fact that he said this to Dean is also notable considering how Dean is the only person he has ever shown a level of interest in. Even when Castiel became extraordinarily powerful after absorbing the souls of purgatory, Death showed his signature unimpressed attitude, and seemed frankly disinterested: implying that he considered Castiel just as insignificant as everything else. Additionally, he cares very little for major events of the world like The Apocalypse, and despite his coerced involvement by Lucifer, he only pays the events vague interest, resulting in his tendency to wander off from his assigned targets.

Unlike the angels or Lucifer, Death considers the Winchesters and their involvement in the Apocalypse highly insignificant in the grand scheme of things. However, unlike his siblings, Death is shown to have a more civil and calm manner when dealing with the Winchesters; Death tells Dean that most people also talk to him with respect. Instead of attacking Dean during their encounter, he invites the Winchester to join him at the table to discuss the Apocalypse and even goes so far as to share his pizza with him. Death also claims to be an acquaintance of God himself, claiming that the two both share a similar advanced age to one another and that neither of them can remember which is older anymore or even if they are the same age. In the end, it is irrelevant: Death dispassionately notes He will ultimately reap God as well (to Dean’s stark astonishment).

Despite being callous and uninterested at times, Death has a respect for the natural order of the universe. He explains to Dean that there are times when it is difficult, but in the end, breaking the order in even the smallest way can cause untold chaos.

While he does not hate Dean and Sam, Death feels that the pair are an affront to the natural order due to their constant resurrections and seems to show a certain annoyance regarding there numerous revivals. Even though he is capable of it, as a rule, Death himself does not normally resurrect people, though he coldly note's He may make "*an exception once, not twice.*" He also seems to genuinely like, to a certain degree, Dean as the two share an almost father-son bond; Death even went as far as loaning Dean his Ring so he can become Death for a day, as a way to teach Dean quality of the Human Soul, along with the consequences of disrupting the natural order. He also appears to Dean when he briefly dies to contact him, something he does on his own as Tessa is both unwilling and unable to summon him.

While Dean does lose their wager, Death is ultimately satisfied enough by the fact that he has learned his lesson to do as Dean asks anyway, though he says it is also so they will keep digging into what is going on with the souls of Purgatory as he presumably doesn't like the idea of souls being used for power. Unlike the other Horsemen, Death has a level of respect for humans, specifically the human soul. Death tells Dean that the soul is stronger than anyone knows and that it can suffer much and be broken but can't be destroyed, not even by him.

Over time, Death expressed more respect for the Winchesters and has even indicated that he was honored to be reaping Sam himself. However, he showed some anger at Sam avoiding Death reaping him as he told Sam that was part of the reason he wanted Dean to kill him. Billie the Reaper states that while annoyed, Death actually found some amusement in Sam and Dean's repeated returns from dying, indicating that was part of the reason he allowed it instead of stopping it from happening, but that now that death is gone, the only rule now is "What lives, dies."

Despite claiming to be totally indifferent to the Winchesters and Earth, Death has helped them on a number of occasions. He gave his ring to Dean to stop Lucifer, agreed to get Sam's soul back, and even helped after Castiel broke the binding spell the Winchesters and Bobby had cast on him, albeit claiming that he was only doing so because he found "that little angel arrogant." He also sharply criticizes Dean for not following his earlier hint about souls and tells him bluntly that he'll help, but added, "Don't thank me. Clean up your mess." It is implied that he is not so much uncaring as he is above the petty struggles of the world, disliking being called on to fix things that he thinks should have been taken care of without bothering him. Death also has an especial fondness for human food, particularly junk food. His liking of Chicago's pizza was so strong he noted it as the reason he spared the city. In the next season, after Dean lost Death's wager, Death showed up at Bobby's house, with bacon dogs, fries, and beer. Later, when Dean summoned and bound him, he brought him pickle chips in an attempt to appease him, which proved fruitless. Nonetheless, after he was unbound, Death ate the food anyways and expressed his enjoyment of them on his way out.

## Powers and Abilities

Being the personification of the concept of death and as the eldest and most powerful of the Four Horsemen, Death was among the oldest and most powerful beings in the Universe. Before his demise, the only entity to exceed his power was The Darkness and he was comparable to God's power. To explain his power level to Dean, which he explained that he is, "*more powerful than you can process*", he said that a bacterium to a human, is basically the same as a human to Death, and his age is such that he said the Milky Way was "barely out of its diapers". Below are of all the powers that Death has demonstrated on the show.

### Background

**Dean**: Well, I gotta ask - how old are you?
**Death**: As old as God. Maybe older. Neither of us can remember any more.

The Darkness claimed not to know who Death was and that he doesn't know her. However, he had knowledge of the war between God, with his Archangels, and the Darkness. Due to the complicated nature of his age, it is unknown how and when Death came into being. Death does not remember how old he is and said that he could be as old, or even older than God.

Death mentioned that he was there when God created the first beasts, the Leviathans, and even, as he said, "*personally found them entertaining.*"

Death's existence is hinted at by Alastair when he performs a ritual to break one of the 66 Seals. He claims an "*old friend*" loaned him his scythe, and "*he doesn't really ride a pale horse, but he does have three amigos.*" Death does not make a physical appearance in *Abandon All Hope...*, but his presence is released from its prison in that episode by Lucifer's ritual. After the ritual is complete, the camera shifts to Death's perspective, and massive wings can be heard in the background, while Lucifer says "O hello, Death".

Death is the boss of all reapers. A large number of reapers gathered in the town where Lucifer was going to release Death in order to serve him.

Normally, Death is kept locked and chained in a magical coffin 600 feet under the Earth. The Host of Heaven only released him when God had something major planned such as the Great Flood, or, as Bobby Singer put it, "The last time they hauled him up, Noah was building a boat."

**Death**, also known as **the Pale Horseman** and **The Angel of Death**, was the oldest and most powerful member of the Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse and an ancient primordial entity of immense power. Having existed since the beginning of time alongside God, Death is so old he cannot remember who is older: himself or God.

During the days of the Apocalypse, Death was bound to Lucifer and awaited for the Winchesters to find him. Death then willingly gave Dean his ring in order to stop Lucifer and imprison him back in the cage. After the fallen archangel was defeated, Dean reached out to Death and offered to give the Pale Horsemen his ring back in exchange for taking Sam's soul out of the cage. After wearing the ring, Dean convinced Death and Death brought Sam's soul out.

Later, when Castiel was corrupted by the souls of Purgatory, the Winchesters summoned and bound Death to have him kill Castiel. Though he was freed, he still offered a way to have the angel return the souls to Purgatory.

A few years later, Dean summoned him again to have Death kill him, due to having suffered under the Mark of Cain. Though Death said he would not because it would free the Darkness, he offered to transport Dean somewhere he would still be alive but wouldn't be a threat in exchange for Dean killing Sam. However, Dean killed Death with his own scythe instead in order to save Sam.

After the Reaper Billie was killed by Castiel, she was reincarnated as Death's replacement. Following Billie's own demise, she was briefly replaced by Betty.

In her adulthood she become a gifted neurosurgeon using both her exceptional intellect and paranormal gifts, including the ability to know if a patient would survive surgery, or indeed if they needed it, just by touching them, to save lives.

## Appearance

Described as looking like a semi-exotic desert princess, Rose is gorgeous and constantly admired for her sex appeal. She has a slim physique with feminine curves, large round breasts, a small waist, rounded hips, and a light layer of lean muscle covering her body. At 5'7", Rose is the shortest of her friends, most of whom are male (given that most Dhampir guardians and novices are male).

She also has beautiful thick, dark, long brown hair that shines black in the right light, dark brown eyes with golden flecks, and lightly tanned skin, which she describes as being "the color of the inside of an almond."

**Rose** wears the Chotki Vasilisa Dragomir gave her in Frostbite all the time except for the end of *Shadow Kiss,* when she gives it back to Lissa and leaves to kill Dimitri after he becomes Strigoi. She also has a nazar that she keeps on herself.

## Personality

At the beginning of the series, Rose is a reckless and impulsive person; she enjoys partying, drinking, and boys, often getting herself (and others) into trouble for fun. In the first book, she considers herself a novelty, as she is always pulling off crazy stunts and making wisecracks for entertainment. Although somewhat flirty with other males and willing to make out with those who caught her eye, she is not necessarily promiscuous, considering she remains a virgin for much longer than most of her peers (she eventually loses her virginity to Dimitri on the cusp of her eighteenth birthday). When she hooks up with Jesse in the first book, she firmly states that she is not having sex with him. Rose also holds very little respect for authority figures, often mouthing off to teachers and earning herself detention. Rose can also be somewhat violent toward those who antagonize her. She has a reputation on campus for being someone who you do not want to pick a fight with, especially after she broke a girl's arm in the ninth grade. Basically, Rose was not all talk: not only can she shoot out hilarious and seething comebacks, but she packs a mean punch. Otherwise known as a fighting beast. At Dimitri and Rose's first meeting in Oregon, he saw her strength and responsible, loyal sense of duty (towards Lissa). Dimitri saw fierceness and a devoted beauty. Even in the earliest days of Rose's career and life, when she was reckless, childish, and a novice, there was a great guardian and fighter.

> *"There was a passion and intensity that radiated off of her, almost like a palpable thing."*
>
>

However, as time passes, especially after Mason's death, Rose begins to become much more grounded and responsible. She thinks through her actions much more, in contrast to her old reckless self, shedding some of that old impulsiveness. This was greatly highlighted when she chastised Mason for trying to seek out Strigoi, something she herself would have most likely done in the past. She also becomes much more practical. She finds most information useless unless it teaches her how to become a better guardian, showing an attitude similar to other guardians. Despite this, she still uses what Dimitri calls "Rose-logic." Rose-logic mostly just entails trying to find loopholes in everything in order to rationalize doing something unreasonable, or when Rose tries to justify something that makes little sense. Even back when Rose was irrational and reckless, she had a very strong sense of duty to the Moroi. As stated by Dimitri, she understands her duties better than most guardians twice her age and experience; hence, even at the start of the series, looking beyond her smart-ass behavior, she is still quite mature in that regard.

Like Dimitri, Rose has very powerful protective instincts. She cannot stand to sit back and see people get hurt, always trying to do something to help whenever possible, even if for a complete and total stranger. She is extraordinarily devoted to helping innocent people and protecting the Moroi. Most often, this protectiveness is directed towards Lissa, although she has shown to be protective over others, including Dimitri, Christian, Adrian, Jill, and Viktoria.

Rose can be very sarcastic and sharp-tongued at times. She always has a smart-ass comment ready whenever someone says something antagonistic to her and always bites back with a witty insult. She doesn't hesitate to speak her mind and can be extremely stubborn in her opinions. When challenged by Abe Mazur, she shows an almost childish insolence by intentionally staying in Baia after he tells her to leave. She can still be rebellious towards authority figures, as shown in her attitude towards Abe as well as Queen Tatiana.

Although Rose is not necessarily conceited, she is very aware of the fact that she is beautiful. She is rather proud of her body, especially since most of the girls she is around are Moroi, who are slim and underdeveloped. She also takes pride in her hair, mainly because Dimitri loves it. Also, although she has become much more practical, she can still be somewhat vain at times about her appearance, taking pride in how she looks.

Despite many changes in her personality, Rose remains a social creature. She can be friendly and warm, not shying away from meeting new people, and has considerable skill in social interactions. Very much like Lissa, Rose has a certain charisma that attracts people and makes them flock to her, but there is still a significant difference in this charm: Lissa's allure stems from her royal refinement and intelligence, while Rose's charm originates from her witty sense of humor, her sharp brilliance, and her formidable talent in Moroi protection.

Rose is also shown to be adept at using her feminine wiles. She has shown an ability to seduce men and sweet-talk them into giving her what she wants. Examples include Mason and Adrian. Rose has also shown an ability to read people. She is excellent at reading body language, noticing things that others wouldn't.

Rose can be somewhat prejudiced in some matters, mostly involving the politics of Moroi society and the role that Dhampirs play. Growing up, she was taught several basic principles that have become ingrained in her mind. The most prominent is the motto of the guardians, "They come first," meaning the Moroi. However, she has also been taught that certain acts are taboo, and such thoughts remain to this day. For example, she used to hold great disdain for blood whores or Dhampirs who chose not to become guardians. She considered it to be one of the worst things one could call a Dhampir and found the very concept of "blood whores" to be disgusting and disgraceful. After spending time in Baia with the Belikovs, her opinion of them lightened, but she still could not bring herself to step foot inside a blood whore den. She is even more disgusted by the idea of male blood whores, a concept she initially found inconceivable and still finds unsettling. Rose also believes that some things about Moroi society are constants, such as that the Dhampir don't have to worry about Strigoi during the daytime, that humans have no knowledge of their existence, and that Strigoi cannot penetrate the safety of wards. This is one reason she found the Badica massacre to be so disturbing: it challenged some of her most core beliefs.

Rose is the narrator and heroine of the Vampire Academy series. She is a Dhampir Guardian and the only daughter and child of the infamous Moroi, Ibrahim 'Abe' Mazur, and the well-known guardian Janine Hathaway.

### Early Life

Rosemarie Hathaway is the only daughter and child of the infamous Turkish, non-Royal Moroi, Abe Mazur, and famed guardian, Janine Hathaway. From a young age, she was raised at St. Vladimir's Academy after being sent there by her mother for Dhampir training and schooling. Since the age of five, she has been the best friend of Vasilisa Dragomir. At the age of fifteen, the Dragomir Family brought Rose along for their winter break. Eric Dragomir was driving with his wife, Rhea, next to him, while Lissa, Rose, and Lissa's brother, Andre, were in the back. As Eric was turning up the radio at Rose and Lissa's request, a drunk driver on the wrong side of the road smashed into them, killing everyone but Lissa. She used her element Spirit to bring Rose back from the dead, making her the first known shadow-kissed dhampir since Anna. Upon their return to St. Vladimir's, Rose became more reckless than normal, a side effect of being shadow-kissed. She began to party and sneak out of her dorm on several occasions, even attempting and failing to climb out of her dorm window, which resulted in her being badly injured. Rose was caught by Sonya Karp, who healed her after making a mutual agreement to keep each other's secrets; she saw the scars on Sonya's head caused by her scratching her forehead due to the darkness spirit.

Another time, when Rose and Lissa were sneaking out to meet Abby Badica, who exchanged a bottle of peach schnapps for rhinestone-studded sandals with Rose, Sonya caught the duo again. While the three were walking back to the school, Lissa brought a raven back to life, with Rose and Sonya witnessing the event - the latter realizing Lissa could use Spirit. Natalie Dashkov had also seen this from afar and told her father, Victor Dashkov, who later used this to torment Lissa. Sonya then compelled Rose to take Lissa and leave the academy, telling her they would take her away too, meaning Lissa would be taken by guardians from the academy into psychiatric rehabilitation. A few weeks later, after witnessing Lissa go into a spirit-induced rage, Rose and Lissa escaped the academy via a car trunk.

Two years later, Guardian Dimitri Belikov finds them in Portland, Oregon, and brings them back to the academy. He later helps Rose graduate by giving her extra training sessions, during which Rose develops a huge crush on her mentor; both eventually fall in love with each other, despite the forbidden nature.

From a young age, she was raised at St. Vladimir's Academy after being sent there by her mother for Dhampir training and schooling. Since the age of five, she has been the best friend of Queen Vasilisa Dragomir. At the age of fifteen, she died in the same accident that killed nearly the entire Dragomir family, only to be saved by Lissa using the element Spirit, making her shadow-kissed. In the same year, she and Lissa ran from St. Vladimir's to save the latter from an unknown threat, only to be brought back by a group of guardians led by Dimitri Belikov two years later.

Upon her return to St. Vladimir's, Dimitri was assigned to privately teach Rose in order to catch up with her classmates' training level. Over the course of a few weeks, she becomes completely infatuated with Dimitri, hoping he will reciprocate those feelings. Eventually, her wish comes true, and they fall in love despite it being forbidden, with Dimitri being Rose's teacher and the fact that both would one day be Lissa's guardians. At the age of seventeen, she killed two Strigoi, Isaiah and Elena, but lost her ex-boyfriend, Mason Ashford, in the process. At eighteen, she was arrested after being framed for killing Queen Tatiana Ivashkov. She later found the real killer, Natasha Ozera, after finding Lissa's lost (half) sister, Jillian Mastrano. At the end of Last Sacrifice, Dimitri finally becomes her boyfriend. She is famous for her accomplishments as a novice and as the guardian of Queen Vasilisa Dragomir.

## Powers and Abilities

As recommended by both Moroi and even Alchemists, Rose is considered to be a powerful and talented Guardian.

### Powers

* **Danger Intuition:** Dhampirs have a preternatural "sense" of when danger is near. This is in part due to their strong instincts and sharp reflexes.
* **Daytime Walking:** Unlike the Strigoi, Dhampir can walk around during the day like humans do.
* **Enhanced Agility:** Dhampir possess greater agility than the Moroi but are not as agile as the Strigoi. Training is required to completely hone this level of agility. They also possess enhanced reflexes and flexibility, which further enhance their combat abilities.
* **Enhanced Beauty:** Dhampirs are considered to possess natural beauty and height owing to their Moroi ancestry, but to a lesser degree due to hybridization with humans.
* **Enhanced Endurance:** The Dhampir's highly advanced musculature produces fewer fatigue toxins during physical activity than that of a human. The Dhampir's bodily tissues are harder and more resistant to certain types of injuries than the bodies of normal humans.
* **Enhanced Memory:** Dhampir have great memory and can recall thoughts and memories much more easily than humans.
* **Enhanced Metabolism:** Dhampir have a naturally high metabolism, which enhances their physical abilities. Thanks to this enhanced metabolism, Dhampir are resistant to diseases and most toxins, but not alcohol.
* **Enhanced Senses:** A Dhampir's five senses are greatly heightened. Dhampir senses are nearly as strong and sensitive as those of a Moroi.
* **Enhanced Strength:** Dhampir are exceptionally strong, allowing them to defend against and potentially kill a Strigoi. They can lift objects three times their body weight. This strength is naturally greater than that of a Moroi's.
* **Night Vision:** Dhampir are able to see in the dark at night.
* **Regenerative Healing Factor:** Dhampir heal faster and more effectively than humans. Wounds such as burns and other injuries can heal within a few hours. Their increased metabolism only improves this ability. For example, Mason could walk on his broken leg a day after sustaining it.
* **Shadow-kissed Capability:** After being brought back from the dead by her best friend Vasilisa Dragomir, Rose began to develop strange abilities. Rose is able to feel what Lissa is feeling and, in a way, read her mind. Rose is also able to slip into Lissa's head, thus "becoming one with her." This is often referred to as their bond. Some of Rose's other shadow-kissed powers involve being able to tell when Strigoi are near and being able to interact with ghosts who help her kill the Strigoi as well. Rose also has one of the highest tolerances to compulsion ever found in Dhampirs, thanks to Lissa's extreme compulsion abilities.
* **Species Detection:** Dhampir are able to distinguish between Strigoi, Moroi, witches, and ordinary humans via enhanced vision and enhanced smell. They can also distinguish whether a Strigoi was human, Moroi, or Dhampir before they were created.

### Abilities

* **Martial Arts:** Rose is a fully trained Guardian, having the ability to take down her opponent using martial arts without any form of weapon. Under the guidance and training of Dimitri Belikov, Rose was able to eventually increase her ability to the point where she was able to take down Strigoi and Dhampir Guardians without fault. Even after two years away from the academy, Rose was able to take down her opponents in class within a month of returning.
* **Weapon Adept:** As a fully trained and educated Guardian, Rose is able to use any form of weaponry against her opponents. She is able to control and kill her opponents with the silver stake (silver stakes kill strigoi) at the age of eighteen without even graduating from school. At the age of seventeen, she was able to command a blunt sword to decapitate two Strigoi, one of whom was an extremely old Strigoi, when captured in Spokane. According to Sydney Sage, Rose is deadly when holding a weapon due to her amazing ability to kill her opponents during their confrontations.

carefree, kind-hearted, royal princess uninterested in the political machinations of the Royal Court or the hypocrisy of royal moroi society. But with a sudden death in her family, Lissa is thrust into a role she feels she's neither trained for nor emotionally equipped to handle. But despite how she'd rather be burying herself in art in the human world, Lissa, realizing the good she can do, tries to live up to her family's reputation.

**Rosemarie Hathaway** is a Dhampir; she is a massively gifted athlete who initially wishes to make up the Guardian class of society. Rose is fiery and outspoken but also a true fighter in spirit and in practice, even when she'd be better off keeping her mouth shut and her fists in her pocket.

## Appearance

Described as angelic by Rose, Vasilisa is beautiful and captivating, and she looks around eighteen. Like most female Moroi, she is tall and slim. She has a beautiful pale complexion, jade-green eyes, and platinum-blonde hair. When she smiles, she does not show her fangs. In the movie adaptation, Lissa has full lips and curly, golden-blonde hair.

## Personality

Lissa is very friendly, kind, and compassionate. She has a kind heart, usually tries to reach out, and will go out of her way to make others feel included. She hates to see others in pain, especially people she cares about, which is the primary reason she wants to continue using spirit, because she loves the fact that she can use it to help people. She also has a great love for animals and despises seeing them in pain as well. Because of her empathic nature, Lissa continues to use spirit to help others despite the constant threat of insanity, gaining strength with each healing.

Lissa is extremely skilled in social interactions, due in part to the natural charisma that spirit brings about but also due to her personality. She dislikes being part of the academy's social crowd because it just involves too many head games and tires her out.

Lissa is rather idealistic. She believes strongly in equal rights for all Moroi, both royal and non-royal, as well as for Dhampirs. She holds great disdain for the elitism of many royals, finding it selfish, snobby, and unfair. She also dislikes the treatment of dhampirs as property. She can get somewhat worked up when talking about such concepts, as shown during her first private audience with Queen Tatiana. She also dislikes the Queen for attempting to control her life and keep her on track as an elite Moroi princess.

Lissa prefers to carefully think out a plan before taking action, though she has complete faith in Rose's ability to protect her. Because of their bond, Lissa relies heavily on Rose to protect her.

Despite Lissa's strength, she can be quite fragile at times, mostly due to the negative effects that spirit has on one's mind. Before she and Rose flee the academy, and for a time after their return, Lissa experiences such emotional turmoil that she begins cutting herself in order to control the pain. While she claims she doesn't want to die and hates pain, she states that the pain gave her something else to focus on, which helps her control the darkness. She's also susceptible to becoming addicted to compulsion, using it on teachers and students whether on purpose or not.

Lissa is very intelligent and works hard at her schoolwork. She dislikes that most Moroi are forced to go to small colleges for their own protection, which is why she accepted the Queen's offer to attend Lehigh University. It is said that she has perfect grades.

## Powers and Abilities

### Powers

* **Compulsion**: Lissa has the ability to use her compulsion to an extraordinary extent. She sometimes uses too much compulsion, to the point where it is very draining for her and physically harms whoever she is compelling. She sometimes accidentally uses it, not realizing her capabilities. She can also compel more than one person at once.
* **Elements**: Lissa has magical abilities that allows her to control the elements of earth, air, fire, water, and spirit.
	+ **Earth (Move):** She can control any natural substance, such as stone, dirt, plants, or wood.
	+ **Air (Movie):** She can create, manipulate and project air.
	+ **Fire (Movie):** She can create, manipulate, and project fire.
	+ **Water (Movie):** She can control and manipulate the water that surrounds her.
	+ **Spirit:** Lissa is a moroi girl who has the rare element of spirit. Originally, she was thought to have not specialized at all, but the truth is revealed by Victor. Lissa is an excellent healer, although using too much takes a mental toll on her. Her sensitivity makes her want to use her powers when she sees something hurt or killed. Such incidents result in depression and her cutting herself. This improves as Rose begins to absorb her emotional darkness through the bond created when Lissa brought Rose back to life, a very straining process. When Jesse tortured her, her anger allowed her to bring out images of evil from spirit. She is also able to create illusions, making Jesse believe spiders are crawling all over him after he tortures her in *Shadow Kiss.* With Adrian's help, she learns to sense auras and can control when she sees them. Lissa is also incredibly charismatic.
		- **Aura**: Lissa can see other people's aura. An aura is the color surrounding a person that reflects their mood and overall character.
		- **Healing**: Lissa has demonstrated that she can heal any physical wound, although it has been discovered that this ability is rather limited in the way that it cannot be used for mental injuries.
			* **Resurrection**: Lissa was able to bring Rose back to life after she died in the car crash
		- **Telekinesis:** Lissa is able to use telekinesis through spirit.
		- **Charming:** She also learns to charm silver objects with spirit to heal the darkness of spirit and to charm a silver stake to restore Dimitri Belikov as a Strigoi in *Spirit Bound*.
* **Enhanced Immune System**: Lissa doesn't get sick like humans. It is unusual for her to get sick or catch viruses.
* **Enhanced Senses**: Lissa has stronger senses of sight, hearing, smell, taste, and touch compared to humans.

**Dimitri Belikov** (Russian: Дмитрий Беликов) is the model Dhampir Guardian: lethal, disciplined, discreet, and totally committed to his role as bodyguard to the ruling Moroi, the "good" mortal vampires of his world. He lives by a deep moral code, but beneath his stoic, watchful surface, there's an expansive spirit grappling with the underlying tension between his sense of what's right and his formal duty to the Moroi.

## Biography

In the books, Dimitri is a dhampir and the only son of Randall Ivashkov and Olena Belikova. He is a famous guardian. His first charge was his best friend, Ivan Zeklos, who was killed when he was off duty. He then became the guardian of Vasilisa Dragomir. When Lissa won the throne, he asked to be assigned to the Queen's partner, Christian Ozera. He is the fiancé and former combat instructor/mentor of the lead character of the series, Rosemarie Hathaway. He is also the second known person to have been restored from his Strigoi state through spirit.

### Early Life

Dimitri Belikov (born between November 22 and December 21, 1984, in Baia, Russia) is the only son of Olena Belikova, a Russian Dhampir, and Randall Ivashkov, an abusive royal Moroi. He is the younger brother of Karolina Belikova and Sonya Belikova, and the older brother of Viktoria Belikova. Despite having been raised in a large dhampir commune—a community of blood whores and their offspring—he grew up in a loving environment thanks to his mother and grandmother. After witnessing years of the continuous abuse of his mother by his father, he beat his father up to the point where he refused to return to Baia at the age of thirteen.

While attending St. Basil's Academy in Russia, he became friends with the royal Moroi, Ivan Zeklos, who later became his charge upon his graduation. Under the guidance of his mentor, Galina, Dimitri graduated with honors and high grades. While on holiday a few years after his graduation, Ivan and his other guardian were attacked and killed by Strigoi.

Dimitri was then sent to America, where he was tasked to find and retrieve Princess Vasilisa Dragomir, a royal Moroi who fled St. Vladimir's Academy in her sophomore year. After a year's worth of investigation, Dimitri tracked her down in Portland, Oregon. Upon their return to St. Vladimir's, he was assigned as Vasilisa's guardian. Over the next few months, he began to fall in love with his student, Rosemarie Hathaway, who had left the academy two years earlier with Lissa.

## Appearance

Dimitri Belikov is described as being extremely handsome and attractive, standing tall at an impressive 6'7" with a long, lean, and very muscular physique. He has dark brown eyes and shoulder-length brown hair, which is often tied back into a short ponytail. Like most guardians, Dimitri has multiple Molnija mark on the back of his neck; each mark represents a Strigoi he killed.

## Personality

Dimitri is a quiet, soldier-like man who at first appears stoic. His emotions can be hard to read most of the time (due to his guardian 'mask'). He can appear gruff and strict at first, although he does show some acts of kindness; deep down, he is loving and has a strong loyalty to those he cares about. Dimitri is extremely loyal and dutiful, especially when it comes to guarding the Moroi.

Late 1984 is more likely since the series starts with them at 17/24; as a Sagittarius, he would've had his 25th birthday at some point between VA and the end of Frostbite.
