Worry not, a simplified info card is in the story so the character info will become relevant.

OC 1, The Andrew Graves Lover
Mikaela Eriksen
A 22 year old Danish female. Birthdate is April 5th. Bunny Plushie is orange with orange glasses.
Brown eyes, long brown hair (Back hair up to chest, left side swept bangs), 180cm height, slightly skinny look, orange rectangular metallic glasses, orange/blue contact lenses (right side blue, left side orange), orange tank top, orange padded bra (D cup size), short orange/navy blue skirt, orange (left side)/blue (right side) full zip hoodie. orange (left side)/blue (right side) thigh-high stockings, orange (left side)/blue (right side) low cut sneakers, silver necklace with blue crystal amulet. Seems to hate the "collar" necklace.
Has a tanto knife with an orange aluminum handle and name engraved into it. Held in a leather sheath on the left side of the waist.

A very obsessive, rich, spoiled and narcissistic lover for Andrew Graves that somehow befriended Beatrice during childhood. She spends the next 90 days changing Andrew Graves into her own lover, either by force or by manipulation. The past is rewritten to include Mikaela in every memory that Andrew has of Ashley and Andrew falls for Mikaela's psychological conditioning of her historical revisionism.
She got into the Grave's siblings apartment by bribing the wardens and having the wardens remove Ashley Graves from the apartment, while both Ashley and Andrew tried to get Mikaela to leave but were powerless to do so.
She somehow convinced Renee Graves to do insurance fraud on her instead of Ashley, while bribing Renee with $1000 to make it happen and convincing Renee that Mikaela's life insurance has a higher payout than Ashley's. Renee did what Mikaela wanted and had Toxisoda spare Ashley in return for Mikaela being legally dead and part of the life insurance fraud.
Needless to say, this was a dumb idea and it hits hard on Mikaela as the weeks go by, yet she's stubborn enough to keep going for the entire events of TCOAAL.

She is narcissistic, sassy, attentive and a very determined individual that wants nothing more than to be with Andrew Graves. Obviously, she hates incest, and removing Ashley had a detrimental effect on Andrew.
She is a known friend to Cali and is presumed to be working together to help Cali with taming her own Andrew in her own dimension.

OC 2, The Betrayed Friend
Beatrice "Sierra" Olsen
A 22 year old Danish/Korean female with violent tendencies and demonic powers. Birthdate is November 15th. Has a Gray Wolf Plushie with blue eyes, black sunglasses and light blue rectangular plastic glasses under the sunglasses.
Brown eyes, very dark brown short hair (layered bangs, slightly boyish hair style, back hair halfway down the neck), 183cm height, slightly average look, navy blue rectangular metallic glasses, black tank top, light blue plain button down collar shirt, light gray full-zip hoodie, khaki jeans, black socks and dark gray low-cut sneakers. Hey Boyish appearance is attributed to her nearly flat breasts and refusal to wear a bra.
Has a tanto knife with a blue aluminum handle and name engraved into it. Held in a leather sheath on the left side of the waist.

She is Mikaela's friend who was betrayed after Mikaela fooled her into helping her with a "secret project" that she never told the full details about. Initially Mikaela's sentences about being with Andrew Graves were seen as a joke by Beatrice until the very day Mikaela got into the apartment and locked herself with Andrew Graves. Beatrice watched helplessly as everything unfolded and she held back, unwilling to intervene and get herself into legal trouble for stopping Mikaela.

Weeks later, she reunites with Ashley as they both plan a way to reunite Ashley with Andrew over the next couple of months, while both of them rekindle "friendly" ties (Ashley still hates Beatrice and Jonas but reluctantly stays with them if it means being able to survive)
She has demonic and angelic powers and has yet to fully awaken both powers, the former being used heavily due to Beatrice's obsession with devils. The latter is due to her christian beliefs.

When aggressive, she shows high aggression, sadistic and violent behaviors, owing to her violent tendencies that flare up from witnessed violent action or direct violent responses against her. To reduce and tame her violent tendencies (Jonas included, but it rarely happens), Jonas repeatedly calls her "Sierra" to trigger a calming response. The reverse can be done for Jonas with "Samuel," as both of them have learned to do this through months of conditioning and practice.

OC 3, The Lover's Ex
Jonas "Samuel" Madsen
A 22 year old Danish/Korean male and Mikaela's Ex. Currently dating Beatrice. Birthdate is November 15th. Has a Gray Wolf Plushie with green eyes, black sunglasses and light green rectangular plastic glasses under the sunglasses.
Brown eyes, very dark brown short hair, 183cm height, slightly average look, dark green rectangular metallic glasses, black tank top, lime plain button down collar shirt, light gray full-zip hoodie, khaki jeans, black socks and dark gray low-cut sneakers.
Has a tanto knife with a lime aluminum handle and name engraved into it. Held in a leather sheath on the left side of the waist.

Beatrice's lover and ex to Mikaela. He assist's Beatrice with reuniting Ashley with Andrew, while maintaining his relationship with Beatrice. He resents Mikaela over the fake sex offender allegations.
He has angelic powers due to his christian beliefs that he's grown overtime. However, it's actually due to his pastor training him to use said powers.

Both Jonas and Beatrice are ambitious, benevolent, adaptive, curious and clever, yet suffer from depression due to multiple stressful shifts at their workplace, regret for letting Mikaela get their way, self-hatred and struggling to maintain their self-esteem. Later on both Jonas and Beatrice buy USP40 pistols (and silencers) as a precaution, believing that Mikaela stole the warden's pistol while escaping the apartment and fear retaliation from Mikaela.

Both Jonas and Beatrice are pharmacists for the fictional NorthLake Pharma Industries (NLPI) company, only to be rapidly promoted to an executive role months later for two incidents where the CEO was saved by one of them. By the end of the story, it becomes an issue when the CEO refuses to train them and reassures them that a training date will be set soon (Which ends up never happening), while still giving them their paychecks despite them not working. They are still allowed to work at their pharmacies unannounced and at any time as the CEO has grown to trust them at their company. Regardless, Jonas and Beatrice have not returned by the end of the story.

Both Jonas and Beatrice come from the lower middle class (mind you, their families did whatever they could to make ends meet and both Jonas and Beatrice are grateful of their parent's sacrifices to get them through life.), while Mikaela is from the upper class and has a high amount of wealth due to her family being very rich and having an immense amount of wealth from their real estate and construction companies that the family owns. Maria is from the middle class, though her family was originally part of the lower class before finding financial stability.

Mikaela's family resents Mikaela because of the fake allegations she threw at Jonas about being a sex offender to make a sob story for herself and continued to do so after the courts struck down the allegations as fake. That led to Jonas being put into house arrest for months until the courts ruling set him free.

OC 4, The Lover's Devil Companion
Maria Larsen (Demon World)/Mille Johansen (Actual)
A 22 year old Danish/Québécois female devil and tar soul. Obsessed with Quebec (QUEBEC FOREVER! - Maria). Despite being born in Denmark, she is fully Québécois, having been born to an immigrant family from Quebec. Birthdate is April 5th. Has a little brown bat plushie and a light blue bunny plushie with a flag of Quebec badge sewed onto a blue plain sweater.
The name "Maria" is used while in the demon world, "Mille" is her actual name. She's represented as a blue tar soul.
Her devil form lacks horns and her devil form shares the same outfit as her human form, other than the blue heart devil tail and devil wings.
Has a tanto knife with a light blue/white aluminum handle and name engraved into it, plus a Quebec Fleur-De-Lis painted on both sides of the handle, near the heel section of the blade. Held in a leather sheath on the left side of the waist. Rarely used.
Light blue eyes, very dark brown slightly curly long hair (back hair up to chest, right side swept bangs), 183cm height, slightly skinny look, thin round silver metallic glasses, light blue bandeau bra (B cup size), light blue plain one shoulder (right arm) short sleeve shirt, navy blue windbreaker jacket, gray jeans, navy blue socks, navy blue and black waterproof sneakers. She has large blue and black devil wings, which are heavily inspired by brown bats. (wings stick out from her jacket and shirt. notably the small holes for the branch of the wings are absent in the human form.). Beatrice is known to share a similar demonic form, though both of them lack any devil horns and beatrice uses

A longtime classmate to Beatrice and a Quebec Nationalist, she is a human demon that has spent most of her adult life in the demon world, monitoring the outside world. She is nerdy, sassy, calm and ambitious. She assists Beatrice in dealing with Mikaela and trying to control Mikaela into abandoning her relationship with Andrew Graves after chapter 1 of TCOAAL. Hence, Maria lives in Mikaela's crystal amulet and struggles to influence a defiant Mikaela in pulling away from her relationship with Andrew Graves. She kept a copy of the 1995 Quebec Independence Referendum in her demon world "apartment" bedroom to remind her of how close Quebec was to reaching independence.

She initially found her way into the demon world by chance and eventually settled to live her adult life in the demon world. Through this, she has been able to get Beatrice, Jonas and Mikaela into this world, sometimes even allowing for long stays and protecting them from death. It's unclear how many times Beatrice, Jonas and Mikaela were "invited" into the demon world, but Beatrice is known to be able to freely access the demon world.

She refuses to eat souls and has persistently spared several souls from death by tar soul, even though she has no ability to do so.
She can speak English, Danish, Canadian French (Quebec French) and Native French. Mikaela can speak English and Danish. Beatrice and Jonas can speak English, Danish and Korean.
She has demonic powers and lacks the ability to consume souls, but is able to control others.

Edit: Fixed a few errors.
