Relationships

 * Kara: Despite not a friend of Kara since childhood, she've learned about Kara's existence after working for Allister a while. He told her about the "other Incarnation" (which is heavily implied to be Kara), their appearance and when they come. She also learned that her father has been reincarnated into two seperate beings, one is Allister, and the other is the "other Incarnation". After abandoning the experiment of the "Purple Liquid", she decided to wait in a makeshift hut until the "other Incarnation" comes.
 * Allister: Her former boss and friend. At first, he acts nicely to her, but in fact that just a ruse for hiding his dark truth: using her as a vessel to turn the world's population into mindless zombies, go for search for the "other Incarnation", and take over their soul. He promised her to give her back the chance to see her family again, but in fact, he wants to turn her to a mindless puppet of him. At first, Astrid is unaware of his nefarious plans, until she saw the negative effects of his experiments on people. After that, she swore that Allister will not able to steal her soul, and she will keep his influence on her at the minimum.
 * Christos: Her boyfriend. He deeply cares about her, and casts her in a sympathetic light when he heard about her dark past about her time working with Allister in his dark schemes.
 * Jane: She held an unfriendly attitude towards Jane due to her excessive pride on her body image, calling her a "girl who behaves like a big macho", "modern Narcissus", and "Megalomaniac". However, she still shows a soft spot on her, such as making meringue with whimsical shapes, Jane's favorite food.
 * Leila: Like Jane, she casts Leila in a negative light, and has a hostile attitude towards her aggressiveness, calling her a "bad poppet", "a lass with flaming ardor", and "belligerent pucelle". But despite all of this, she still calls Leila a "strong fighter", a "heroine who won't let away her goal", and often supports Leila in battles.
