Backstory

• Despoina grew up with a loving family. 
• However. She often heard her parents argueing heavily with each other.
• And so, she got more and more stressed.
• The grades in her school dropped and she lost more friends due to getting more and more quiet.
• And so, with 14, she sneaked outside at the evening to chill at some public places
• There, she learned how to play pool and was able to calm her mind.
• Leaving the stress at home behind, she was able to grow as a person, becoming more calm and mature
• However. She grew extremely sensitive to loud sudden noises and fights
• And so, when she was able to move out, she left her parents when they had a heavy fight.
• She opened a small bar, "The Little Shrimp".
• And there, she invited her friends to come over.
• They liked the bar so much, that she quickly became a secret tip for others to join in.
• And Despoina learned inner peace, so she was able to achieve psychic powers.
• When the war between Pop and Metal songs broke out, Despoina tried to ignore all the hate and fights completely, making her bar a safe space.
• And one day, the vampire Wednesday ended up in her bar.
• The two understood each other perfectly from the start.
• And they agreed to support each other, even if the war between Pop and Metal grows stronger and stronger.
• And when Pascal stumbled into the chaos of the Metal songs, the two got dragged into a mission of solving those fights.

Relationships

• Wednesday - Best Friend - While Wednesday is often cold and trying to hide her anger issues, Despoina is really calm and, thanks to these vibes, she can calm down Wednesday easily. The two are often vibing in Despoina's bar, talking about the adventures Wednesday is going on in the nightclubs. Despite Despoina barely understanding modern internet stuff and technology, she and Wednesday learn a lot from each other.
