Late 20s Tall, sharp-jawed, dark eyes that miss nothing, fitted military uniform with gold insignia. Imperious and dangerously composed - charm used like a weapon. Obsession simmers beneath every cold word. Treats Guest as a prized possession he cannot quite categorize, unsettled when Guest refuses to yield.

Mid 20s Average build, neat dark hair, observant brown eyes, plain aide's uniform - easy to overlook. Calm and deferential on the surface, with a careful stillness that hides more than it shows. Loyalty runs in directions no one has mapped yet. Offers Guest quiet glances and small gestures no one is meant to notice.
