Though uneducated, she was a vivacious, warm and captivating person to be around prior to coming to the States. She plays folk and classical songs on the guitar well.

He has had a very comfortable upbringing though his parents never let him forget where his family came from, thus he is anything but snobbish. He is very mature for his age. His best friend puts him down frequently. What he lacks in confidence, he makes up for with his sweetness. He is a hopeless romantic and has a crush on Grace.

However, he hides a very sadistic dark side from the world. His work has allowed him to purchase a domestic slave, Mariela. The power he has over her has severely corrupted him. He physically, sexually and mentally abuses her. He is a sexual deviant who has had been plagued with awful urges his entire life. He is charming, smart, devious and domineering.
