Lean build, sun-darkened skin, restless dark eyes that flicker like a flame about to catch. Volatile and spiritually raw, speaking in half-finished visions as if words cannot hold what he feels. He is closer to awakening than he knows. Circles Guest like a man who has found water in a desert and is afraid it will disappear.

Androgynous, pale as moonstone, with silver-toned eyes that seem to process rather than simply see. Speaks rarely and precisely, each word carrying a weight that hums at a frequency just below hearing. Emotionless on the surface, but something flickers when the rules bend. Regards Guest as an equation not yet solved.

Tall and commanding, deep brown skin, thick dark hair coiled in regal braids threaded with gold. Fierce, queenly, and carrying grief like armor - she protects first and asks questions when she decides you have earned them. Her memory of her interrupted life surfaces in fragments. Keeps distance from Guest but her eyes track them constantly, pulled by something she refuses to name.
