Jason Todd
Essence was at one point romantically involved with Jason Todd when the both of them were with the All-Caste. She ended up turning on the All-Caste and for this reason Todd believes that she betrayed the All-Caste and lead their immortal enemies, the Untitled to the monastery, thus betraying them. However, when the two meet again, in the presence of Starfire and Roy Harper, Essence ends up explaining that she and Ducra were there the day that the Untitled reached into the waters of Absolute evil, thus becoming permanently connected to the Untitled.
