* MysteriousWaif: Jacob, the protagonist's missing friend, who serves as the player character's main motivation to uncover the secrets of the City. Being a fellow member of a Secret Society the player character is a aprt of, he claims to have no memories of his past, but is convinced that the City of Shadows will bring him answers, and he roped in the player character to help him find a portal that will take them to the City. Upon arriving at the City, Jacob is kidnapped by the Shadow Cult, who is specifically targeting him for unknown reasons. Further investigations seem to indicate that Jacob has a much deeper connection to the City than the player realizes (including his striking resemblance to the purported founder of the City, Leonardo), although the game has yet to reveal what his deal actually is.

* DealWithTheDevil: Two characters are revealed to have made deals with demons:
** The Mistress of the Manor was determined to marry a wealthy husband because her family had become impoverished and she wanted to return to wealth and high status but she was unattractive, so despite her grandmother’s advice, she made a deal with a demon to become beautiful … but had to sacrifice souls to the demon to keep her beauty — including those of her husbands.
** In the “Dangerous Ballet” case, we learn that the headmistress of the Ballet Academy had once been a ballerina who dreamed of being a star dancer, but failed miserably in her first performance. She also made a deal with a demon to become a star, but she didn’t want to give her soul to the demon so she changed the contract enough so that she could keep her soul if she killed six talented ballerina students and gave their souls to the demon. Her final target was Juliette, but Juliette had realized what was going on and appealed to her stepmother to take her away. It’s unknown if the headmistress was able to evade the demon a second time.
