Rory Truong
Rory Truong is a former demonology student. She is taught and mentored by Alcor during his brief stint as a demonology professor at the University of Garching in the Theocracy of New Hesse.
History
Spending her early years with her mother, a historian of demonology, in the Californian Archipelago of Northern Mexico, Rory learned from an early age to fear Alcor due to the extensive ramifications of the California Incident. When she was sixteen, her parents split up, and her mother, fearing the consequences of Rory becoming too involved in her research, sent Rory to live with her father in New Hesse when he returned.[1]
Due to test credit from her high school in California, Rory was able to skip several introductory demonology courses.[2]
Relationships
Professor Tyrone Pines (Dipper Pines)
After receiving his PhD in Pre-Transcendental demonological history from Hong Kong University, Dipper goes on to become a lecturer at the University of Garching due to his interest in demonology department head Jo Schulz. During this time, he teaches and eventually befriends Rory when she enrolls in one of his electives, a 400-level course entitled Practical Summoning Protocols.[2]
Although during their first meeting, he makes her cry due to an off-the-cuff oral pop quiz in front of the entire class, and though she does describe him as being "generally an asshole" they eventually form a fast friendship and he becomes a mentor figure for her, at least until she learns his true identity as Alcor the Dreambender.[1]
Kinsky
Kinsky is a devout theologist and the head of PR for the Theocratic Student Association at the University of Garching. He and Rory briefly form a temporary alliance to investigate a series of murders, and while they never really become friends, they do maintain their acquaintance post-graduation.
