|mortallife=Aiko Sato was the step-daughter of a Japanese businessman who molested her since puberty. She was both ashamed and pleased with the arrangement and soon began to accompany him on his travels abroad. On a business trip to Las Vegas in 1981, when she was fifteen, he returned drunk with several colleagues to his hotel room and offering her to them. She complied out of love and shameful lust and the scene of debauchery opened the Gate of Lust, through which came the Raving Ones. When they returned to the gardens of Dionysis, they took little Aiko with them. 
|durance=Her memories of her time in Faerie are a blur of drinking, sex, violence, and dancing. She isn't sure how she acquired her seeming, but often has vivid dreams of having sex with a nest of snakes. She isn't entirely sure how she returned to the world except that she found herself naked in Sin City and spent several months working in the brothels there before being noticed by a member of the Sun Court and brought back to the world.
|changelinglife=It was only 1983 when she returned, though she'd aged close to ten years. Her father and her fetch had returned to Japan, so she was forced to rely on the kindness of [[Fat Betty]] and the Sun Court while finding a means to support herself. Their concern for how she was found didn't endear them to her and she quickly spurned their company and found work as a prostitute on the street, joining the Moon Court. She proved very successful and, with the help of [[Dame Anastasia]], quickly graduated to escort and, finally, manager of her own escort service. Half out of spite, she began to mirror Betty's efforts at helping new arrivals by taking them in and convincing them to work in the sex trade to get back on their feet. She recruited several other Lost in this way and earned the enmity of the Sun Court. She is also notable for not thinking poorly of her durance. She's sworn off shame and is something of an aggressive advocate of the Moon Court for that reason. Scarlet enjoys what she does and the reaction it gets from people and never hides what she is.
