When Hell was a barren wasteland, Ylva, a human, yielded magic to fill it with all sorts of animal life. She also discovered that human souls (tier 3) can be replicated too, and created these distinctly non-human but completely sapient people.
The very first monster. She maintains a high confidence and self-absorbtion to mask her insecurities. After several failed career venues, the final straw being ballet, she decided to resign herself to the only she was ever good at: cleaning. Cleaning her small house over and over again was driving her mad, so Ylva sent her to live at the castle and clean that instead. She and Diana developed a close friendship as a result, and Lucy has taken on a royal advisor position as well as being the housemaid.
Mean, shallow, and self absorbed. She says and does whatever she wants. Adopted the valley girl aesthetic on purpose, but she's far from the "dumb blonde" type. After her messy breakup with Lucy, she went into law school to prove her intelligence, and genuinely fell in love with the work. Her continued success in her pursuits enrages Lucy to this day.
Ylva calls her a "reverse werewolf," meaning she turns human in the light of the full moon (which she hates). A slob, glutton, and a lover of chaos with a criminal record of arson. Despite her usual laziness, her favorite hobby is hunting her own food, venizen being her favorite meat. Best friends with Valentine, who has let Hunter park her trailer behind her house for years now (though initially out of pity).
One of the oddballs of monsters as they weren't created by Ylva at all. They were made by a roboticist who stole a conjoined soul Nephthys was keeping for observation. Ylva, refusing to ever destroy life, has since adopted the eccentric duo as monsters. Knick (round face) is an energetic jokester with a fondness for slapstick and low-brow humor. Knack (pointed face) plays the straight-man to Knick, preffering more refined comedy and is a bit of a snob. They also both have an interest in "fake" magic, ranging from card tricks to Tarot, but real magic in the form of Animmancy is what made their shows famous.
One night while Ylva was tossing and turning, she dreamt of a battle she had long ago. She was suddenly wounded, and collapsed behind a barricade with a large gash in her side. Suddenly, a mass of flesh crawled out from the wound. When she awoke, she was holding it in her arms. The flesh formed into a humanoid body, and Sybil was born.
Sybil has an intense fascination with human biology. This, combined with her ability to manipulate the bodies of others with her own on a micro scale (blocking nerve signals, gathering information from the blood akin to a blood test, temporarily filling the gaps of large wounds, etc) makes her a fantastic assitant/nurse to Dr. Chopin. However, her gory appearance combined with her poor social skills often makes her come off as creepy and obsessive, leading to social isolation. She struggles to maintain relationships outside of monsters and is deeply lonely, which tends to lead her into the "wrong" social circles.
Her body is made of pure magic, which has a pitch-black and cloudy appearance. He can look however she wants, and he prefers a small and cutesy-looking body both out of personal preference, and because humans find it less intimidating. Not shy, but an introvert who spends most of their time at home deep in the woods. A lover of nature, she enjoys foraging and hunting her own food. While their house does have power, they prefer to minimize the amount of technology they have to use. The most high-tech device she owns is a landline phone.
Since her body is made of pure magic, anyone with any magical capabilities could take control of her, or even destroy her body outright. Fortunately, this is not a well-known fact.
