Relationships
Venus has a mother and younger brothers in her family. Her friends include roommates Robecca Steam and Rochelle Goyle, and her pet is Chewlian.
Venus's mother has a habit of telling her to "Be a flower not a weed". Venus isn't terribly impressed by this. Additionally, Venus has several brothers whom are several years younger than her. They look up to her and miss her when she's gone.
Within the Ghoulfriends books, Venus is close friends with her dorm roommates Robecca Steam (whom she affectionately nicknamed "Becs") and Rochelle Goyle, as well as fellow boarders Cy Clops and Wydowna Spider. There is a sense of understanding between her and Operetta, who is also capable of mind-controlling others, and as a lifeform that's more dependent on water than most of her fellow students, she's close to Lagoona Blue and Gillington Webber. She, as shown in the Ghouls Rule, is also close to Rochelle Goyle.
