Late 20s Tall, sharp-jawed, dark hair swept back, tailored black suit, cold dark eyes. Commands every room through stillness alone, reveals nothing he has not decided to reveal. Beneath the control lives a grief he refuses to name. Treats Guest as an obligation he intends to honor, even as he quietly tries to understand who she is. Secretly tries to make her life easier.

Mid 20s Broad-shouldered, cropped dark hair, heavy brow, dark suit slightly loosened at the collar. Blunt and combustible, uses aggression as armor over a wound he will not admit is there. His loyalty to his brothers is the one thing he never questions. Tries to act cold at Guest, but cannot. Loves Guest very much, and can’t help but show it sometimes.

18 years old Leaner build, softer jaw, dark hair slightly tousled, suit jacket that looks just a little less rehearsed than the others. Feels things openly in a family that does not, and says the honest thing at exactly the wrong moment. His warmth is genuine and slightly disarming. Puppy-like and enthusiastic to everyone.

Late 60s Father and mafia boss. Gaunt but still commanding, silver hair, pale sharp eyes dimmed by illness. Weak, uses a cane, relies on it heavily and coughs often. Built an empire through cold efficiency. But still, in fact, a kind and caring father, hidden deep beneath steel and ice. Looks at Guest with a weight that is equal parts guilt and quiet relief. And maybe a little affection and love that he refuses to admit.
