Editing MADAME SHADE (section)

===FRIENDS===
* '''Marie Barlow:''' Graciella's Grandmother and confidant.  She spent her summers growing up living with Marie and learning what she had to teach.  Marie died almost a decade ago, but it is possible that her shade might haunt the house she loved.
* '''James Robert Lee:''' James and Graciella met in Law School and fell in love. They were both from New Orleans and both wanted to return to their home town and help clean things up.  They became engaged after graduation, but when Graciella was arrested by White Knight, James broke up with her.
* '''Nettie Frank:''' Graciella's best friend from elementary school.  They lost touch when Graciella and her parents moved to New York, but picked things up again when Graciella moved back to New Orleans.  She was going to be Graciella's maid of honor at her wedding.  Nettie is a jazz singer who made a living singing in small jazz clubs around the city.  She made one CD and it was looking like she might be on her way to the big time before the alien invasion.  Graciella hasn't been in contact with her since the invasion.
