Family
Little is known about Volara's family. Her mother

and an unknown amount of her siblings (all but one) died of the Green Weakness, what Ampeels call the Kharaa Bacterium. Her one surviving sibling is a female named Conducara.

Varien Stelisk
Volara and Varien are very close friends. They met about a week after the Aurora went down. Varien was in the Mushroom Forest looking for Lifepod 13, containing Jochi Khasar, when he decided to explore and eventually encountered Volara, who was curious about his Seamoth and the energy it was producing. They continued to meet and learn to speak to each other and eventually became very close friends. They fought briefly on two occasions, one when Volara thought Varien had lied about leaving the planet when the Sunbeam blew up and the other when Varien discovered that Volara had killed his fiance, Silvia Berkeley. They became friends again and Varien even became the adopted father of Volara's children, Dipolara, Magnelara and Faralaron.
