Relationships

 * Dr. Helen Magnus
 * Like Will, Kate soon begins to rely on Dr. Magnus as a mentor. The head of Sanctuary encourages her to face her emotions and rethink the decisions she has made in life, and convinces her that she alone can make her life what she wants it to be.


 * Dr. Will Zimmerman
 * There are several hints that Kate is romantically interested in Will; she is far more distraught by his apparent death during his connection to Kali than the others and does not want him to think badly of her. When Will is in danger of losing his humanity by being transformed into a cillobar, Kate talks to him alone and is about to confess something very personal to him, but at that moment his girlfriend, Abby Corrigan, calls and Kate promises Will to "take care" of the call.


 * Garris
 * Shortly after the destruction of Praxis, Kate met a herusan artist named Garris who soon became a leader among the abnormal refugees on the surface. When he decided to return to Hollow Earth and rebuild, she joined him, having obviously fallen in love with him.
