Image: Rebel Wolves / Bandai NamcoNo screenshot of Alin yet. This one shows Laslea (Rebel Wolves / Bandai Namco).
Alin is Coen's younger brother, who drowned as a child after falling through cracked ice. You never play alongside him, but his death shapes Coen, his mother Esme and the quest Home Sweet Home.
Alin was one of Pieter and Esme's five children. He died young, before the plague and the vampire takeover, and the family never really recovered from it.
Coen ran for help when Alin fell through the ice but came back too late, and he blamed himself for years. That guilt comes to a head in the quest Home Sweet Home.

Coen is the main character you play. A young farmer from Laslea, he becomes a Dawnwalker, human by day and vampire by night, and has 30 days to save his captive family from Brencis.

Esme is Coen's mother. Grief and illness have left her barely able to eat or leave her bed, and getting her through the next Blood Mass is what drives the prologue.
