Pardloe, Preston (fairy): To repay a debt to Niall, fairy Preston pretends to be a Were and lies naked in Sookie’s woods on Christmas Eve, waiting for her to find him and counting on her innate kindness to get him into her home. Once safely inside, he uses just a touch of magic to spark the attraction between them, and they spend a satisfying night together. As the fairy magic fades, so do Sookie’s detailed memories of the encounter, but she retains the feelings of guilt-free pleasure and happiness. Preston retains all his memories but knows he must follow Niall’s instructions and have no further contact with Sookie, no matter how much he would like to. (GW)

Parnell (wolf): No last name given. Amanda’s partner at the meeting of the Weres and the vampires at Merlotte’s, Parnell almost overreacts when Eric leaps to Sookie’s defense after Amanda calls her a “vamp humper.” (DTTW)

Patty: No last name given. Michelle Stackhouse’s best friend, Patty does her best to be an honorary aunt to Sookie after Michelle’s death. (Mentioned LDID)

Paul, Andre (vampire): Andre is Queen Sophie-Anne Leclerq’s faithful second-in-command. Orphaned as a teenager, he was found in the woods and turned by Sophie-Anne a few years after her own turning and has been her most loyal bodyguard, companion, and lover ever since. During the ectoplasmic reconstruction of Jake Purifoy’s turning at Hadley’s apartment, Andre is able to read lips and let the other watchers know what is being said. Afterward it is Andre who tells Sookie that she has fairy blood when they pretend to have sex as an excuse for time alone with Sophie-Anne to tell their story. Andre’s only concern is the well-being of Sophie-Anne; he kills her husband, Peter Threadgill, after Peter’s vampires attack at the reception for the couple at Sophie-Anne’s monastery and escorts his queen safely away. After the disaster of Hurricane Katrina, Andre arranges a meeting with Sookie, Eric, and his vampires to make plans for the upcoming vampire summit, where Sophie-Anne will face charges for the death of Peter. Once at the summit, Andre demonstrates his willingness to do anything he feels necessary to benefit his queen by trying to force Sookie into a blood bond to strengthen her connection to him. He is interrupted by Eric, who bonds with Sookie instead. Quinn comes upon the scene and is furious that the vampires are attempting to control Sookie. After the hotel explodes, an injured Andre is found by Sookie at the same time she finds Quinn, and she walks away knowing that Quinn is moving toward Andre to eliminate the threat to Sookie’s free will. Andre meets his final death in the ruins of the Pyramid of Gizeh. (DD; dies ATD; mentioned FDTW, DAG)
