Des Arts, Sweetie (wolf): Bitten by a Were while lying injured in a car wreck, former stripper Sweetie partially shifts at the next full moon. She resents what she has become and hates all shifters with a passion, taking her revenge with a gun. She moves from place to place, working in bars, identifying local shifters not only through her customers but also through churches, restaurants, and day care centers. While working as a cook at Merlotte’s, Sweetie kills teenager Heather Kinman, a werefox. She also shoots Calvin Norris, a werepanther, who barely survives, and wings Sookie, mistaking her for a shifter because of the scent of shifter on her. Sweetie meets her end in an alley, shot by Andy Bellefleur. In the three years after she was bitten, Sweetie randomly killed twenty-two shifters and wounded forty-one. (Dies DAAD)

She survives the bombing of the Pyramid of Gizeh in Rhodes after being trapped in the rubble for twelve hours. She conveys her uncle’s personal message to warn Sookie about the fairies as well as delivers Sookie’s inheritance from Claudine.
