She has close ties to the GotV Emissary, Ava, who has been a mentor to her for several years. She is often in the company of another guardian, Mirón.

Outside of the Consilium, Dr. Frances Ward-King is a respected member of the entertainment industry, with a little Fame and owns and operates a recording studio situated in Brooklyn, Pentacle 36. She has released several albums of her own in previous years, but does not do live performance anymore due to time constraints.
