Fuck it!! Time to post some Crypt of the Necrodancer headcanons (I haven't played Synergy yet lol so these will probably change after I do so).

Before Cadence was born, Dorian, Melody, Nocturna and Eli were a D&D style party of adventurers, and this was how Dorian and Melody met. After a few years of this, Melody decided she wanted to settle down, so she and Dorian returned to her hometown to start a family. Eli is Dorian's brother and decided to also live in Melody's hometown.

Nocturna, however, continued adventuring on her own, before eventually teaming up with Diamond and Dove. Dove and Nocturna have romantic feelings for each other, but aren't in a relationship. Nocturna is a good person, and doesn't drink human blood (she either abstains or drinks animal blood, idk), but she's willing to kill wrongdoers, which conflicts with Dove's pacifist ideals. This will ultimately end with them going their separate ways, but at the time of the main game's events, they're still adventuring together.
