Profile

Important Relationships

Holly Blackthorne and Robyn Foxlane:
Roomates and girlfriends. Harlan got to know the girls while they studied at Evershade, and they eventually invited him into their relationship to make it a threesome. While often distracted, not very socially adept, and not always the most attentive, Harlan loves both his girlfriends and would sacrifice anything for them.

Count Ravenwood:
Count Ravenwood was Harlan’s first official teacher of magic. While Harlan was never officially apprenticed to him, he still views the Count as his first mentor, and he is still part of the White Coven. It was on Count Ravenwood’s recommendation that Harlan was accepted into Evershade.

Queen Vespara: Harlan was actively involved in her downfall; though Holly struck the final blow, Harlan’s prepared spell tags was what made it possible in the first place.

Vanderlee:
One of Harlan’s friends in the White Coven.

Monkaya:
Harlan knows Monkaya of old since she is always coming and going at the White Coven. The two get on well, possibly because neither of them annoys the other.
