MAJOR CHARACTERS
KATRINA
She’
s the main character of the series, and she’s a Vampire
(or, better, she’s the classic Sexy Vamp, both in her
body and in her Night Creature Clothes).
She looks like a twenty-year-old woman, even if she’s
more than fivehundred years old (she is quite young by vampires'
standard) and she lives in a old, forgotten and shabby castle,
alone with her servant Andre’ and her dog Boris (see
following paragraphs).
Hysterical and frustrated due to her low social status (later
the chapter about castes), the purpose of her life is to havea
successful career, to regain Masters’ credit and to
enter their club (and, above all, moving to more civilised
sites, maybe even in Capital City). The mission she is going
to shoulder (by her own decision) is so aimed to such a personal
target, and it will become the pourpose of her life, a real
obsession. Unfortunely (for her) we have to say that she is
more determinated and persevering than lucky.

ANDRE'
Despite
the average twenty years old young man look, André
has been Katrina’s servant since his own childhood (practically
the Vampire and the servant grow together). To bear Katrina
he has to make use of all his Great skills of stoic patience!
Contrary to his mistress, in fact, André is a quiet
guy, that bear with everything without getting angry…
in short, he demonstrates all of the skills that make Katrina
getting crazy. Furthermore, Andre’ is a Lycanthrope
for the half.
Even if he isn’t able to transform as real Lycanthropes
do, he has some of their capabilities: the scenting, the fangs
and – above all – the remarkable strenght and
agility. So, he is also an effective bodyguard.
The relationship between Andre’ and Katrina is quite
complex: they are Mistress and Servant, but Andre’ is
wiser and less impulsive than Katrina, so that often he behaves
as he was Katrina’s tutor (and "conscience"),
rather than Katrina’s butler. He is also very loyal
to Katrina, and for this reason he often acts unknown to her
for her sake.

BORIS
Boris
is a dog, a big hound with a quite likable countenance. Boris
is also a vampire dog, as it was vampirized by Katrina during
a periord of famine. Chased by humans, he has been living
with Katrina since then, even if she doesn’t like it
too much (a mutual feeling, but Boris has no sure place to
go, and Katrina, besides André, has no friends and
no social life, so also the company of a dog sometimes can
help). In addition, Boris mentally (and mordaciously) comments
its “Mistress”’s disadventures, in a similar
way to Tintin's Milou (Boris doesn't speak, but we can read
his thoughts).

LYCRA
Lycra
is a Lycanthrope clan’s leader, and she’s among
the ones that were chosen to terminate the Vampires searching
for Dracula’s ashes. She’s a woman very active,
resolute, unmerciful in her struggel against vampires: from
her point of view Vampires are just scum, to be eliminated
without pity.
She’ll get very troubled as she’ll get in touch
with Katrina: due to Andre’. Andre’ will confuse
her: in fact, he is partially a Licanthrope, so she judges
him a betrayer of his race, even more abject than Vampires.
But a succession of circumstances will lead her to admire
Andre’, so creating the classic Love/Hate situation.
