Vivian

Vivian is the female companion and girlfriend of Cyrus Vanch. She also informed him of what George has been doing during his absence. Vivian also mentions that she has a friend in the Starling City police department, who provided her with the key information that led to Cyrus's capture of Laurel Lance in "Betrayal", primarily that Laurel had been communicating with The Hood and that her capture would easily lure The Hood out. Up until now it is unknown who her informant within the police was. She appears to actively share Cyrus' bloodlust, and tries to kill The Hood personally when Detective Lance bursts in and spoils Cyrus' planned murder of the vigilante. The manner in which Oliver slams her head into the table suggests he does not underestimate her as an adversary, or remotely believe her actions are for show.
