Database
Two of them
Lacra and Crake each have an ending named after them, reached only by finishing a six- and a ten-quest chain. Neither chain says so while you are playing it.
Three of them
Anca, Lacra and Crake — all three in one playthrough, none locking the others. The romance is a narrative choice; an ally stays allied either way.
3 of them
And that is only the ones a source confirms. Everything routed through a character closes with them, which on this cast can mean a manual, a shortcut, or an ending.
The protagonist and the reason for the clock.
Protagonist — the Dawnwalker
The player character: human by day, vampire by night, racing a thirty-day deadline to save his family.
Central antagonist
The vampire power at the centre of the story. Players are not required to work up to him — the game permits an early attempt.
Brencis's three officers. Each holds a dominion and an anger meter, and beating all three is what draws him out.
Officer of the vampire regime — the blood supply
One of Brencis's three officers: the youngest, and the one who runs the valley's blood supply, its draining dungeons and its liquor trade.
Officer of the vampire regime — the warrior
One of Brencis's three officers. The regime's warrior, and referenced in the context of major encounters.
Officer of the vampire regime — the mystic, and maker of the Blood Guards
One of Brencis's three officers, and the one who makes the Blood Guards. Fought in the walkthrough as a boss inside Svartrau Cathedral.
Everyone an ending is routed through. Derived from the ending records rather than tagged by hand — if a character is here, losing them costs an outcome.
Ally — one of two who will fight Brencis alongside Coen
An ally met in a Svartrau alley and followed into the Rockfalls. Finishing her questline is what makes The Patricide possible.
Leader of the Manumit rebellion; ally, and one of three romance routes
Leader of the Manumit, the rebellion against Brencis. Finishing his questline is what makes The Knyazmaker possible, and he is one of three characters Coen can romance.
The people the prologue and the valley put in your way. Several of them carry a mechanical consequence out of all proportion to their billing.
Herbalist of Laslea; one of three romance routes
The herbalist of Laslea, and the first person the game asks you to spend time on. She grows the herb Esme's medicine needs, and she is one of three characters Coen can romance.
Priest of Svartrau Cathedral
The priest at Svartrau Cathedral. He conducts the blood mass himself — the weekly rite through which Brencis takes the valley's blood and gives back health.
Saint of Vale Sangora — and the object of a weapon hunt
The saint whose legendary silver sword Coen goes to Svartrau Cathedral to find. What is in the crypt is not only a sword.
Coen's mother
Coen's mother, ill in the opening hours. Whether she survives is the prologue's one hard failure, and it is decided by a recipe and a deadline.
Coen's father
Coen's father. He takes him out to train in the prologue — and how that scene is ended is the most expensive line of dialogue anyone has priced.
Rebel, met during Bad Blood
Met in the prologue's aftermath. Keeping him alive shortens the return to Laslea to a single segment — and an unmanaged hunger takes the choice away from you.
Daughter of the Uriash village elder
The Uriash elder's daughter. Finding her is what opens The Heart Wants What It Wants, and finishing that is what closes out one of Bakir's Court activities.
This file was assembled from the retail build and the sources that document it, and it fills in as those sources reach each corner of the cast. Where a role, questline or romance route is not yet established, the record says so out loud rather than filling the gap with a guess.
The records are uneven as a result — deliberately. A character with a questline, a romance route and a named failure state has all of that from somewhere. A character with two lines has two lines. Every record separates confirmed facts from unconfirmed, and any premise material retold across trailers rather than stated once officially sits in its own section under its own note — it never borrows the record’s confidence badge.
Where sources disagree on a name, both are published: the record keeps the stronger form and lists the other. Two characters here carry an alias for exactly that reason, and neither has been merged silently.
