Trivia

  • While they were identified as expert assassins in previous press releases, it was confirmed by Volition, Inc. that this was a misunderstanding and that they aren't expert assassins but instead only hire expert assassins.[4]
  • In an early concept stage, they were originally Japanese twins called Natsuko and Yukako, nicknamed Suki and Yuki for short. They led their own all-female gang, to contrast with the original Morning Star concept of an all-male gang. The two gangs were merged to streamline the story, and the DeWynters were made caucasian to avoid the stereotype of "badass Asian chicks that are subservient to an older man".[5]
    • Steve Jaros, lead writer for Saints Row: The Third, explained he "named [the twins] Viola and Kiki DeWynter, after RPG characters" that he and his friend played.[5]
