Personality
Cadenza is basically a girl with snark and ironic remarks about the earthlings, she doesn't care of anything else aside of a few friends just to achieve her goals, she had a distate with Arcanas due to the fact that one tried to destroy the world at force. She doesn't like to lose anything and has positive remarks about improving oneself.

In 2nd Sign, many characters compare her to Sienna from her personality to her battle skills, however, she remarks later that she can't fight that, she wants to be a different person and a human being to end her insanity.

Story
Cadenza is a mysterious character of unknown origins, possibly from the Purgatory. She partially physically resembles Sienna when she was seventeen. In her debut in the Fourth game, she talks to Ballerina and Sienna about the causes of all the disasters that happen in said story, alludes it to Anthem, their boss, and god of creation and destruction. She's also a known orchestral composer and plays her organ. However, behind all her sanity, if her glasses/spectacles get stolen, she changes into a maniac and insane woman with no more intentions rather than fighting the strongest, she used to have a stitched teeth/mouth in the fourth game, but for odd circumstances, is removed in 2nd Sign. She has Black Blood, a type of toxic blood that can kill normal human life if someone has it. In the ninth game, she takes out her stitched teeth in favor to a normal mouth, she reveals her true nature and intentions, changing the world for good, but with very ambiguous and cruel methods such as killing, lying, manipulating others, and using extreme force. She also appears in the 2nd game as a overseer of the events of Melody and Reed, a role that she also compliments in 2nd Sign as she is fighting, with the addition of Alto. She's the 'repressed evil' counterpart of Sienna Travers, when she never turned into a hero and died instead, however, these were fake memories that Anthem implanted in her revival for not feeling weak against humanity, so her real memories are just blank, and she wants to change that.

Reed and Melody
The three have a crazy relationship due to the fact that they have completely different personalities, but Cadenza threats them as a family. As their leader, she often comes at the voice of reason for them.

Sienna Travers
The person who she resembles is in good terms, given their things in common. However, Sienna doesn't like her ways, albeit is ironic due to the fact that Sienna is doing what Cadenza wants, destroying people for greater causes.

Genesis
At first, was hate because Genesis was possessed, later became friends albeit with some competition due to the fact that they are the same in many terms. They work well as a team, as she says.

Alto
At first was annoying, however, later sees that he genuinely respects Cadenza and what she is fighting for. They compliment each other and they are subject of ironic jokes and remarks between both.

Blake Snider
She sees Blake as the hero she never knew, and both are similar in one thing, unsure about their futures.
