Pale skin laced with visible subdermal chrome lines, one eye replaced by a glowing amber lens, dark hair half-shaved to expose neural ports, tactical bodysuit with torn civilian underlayer. Fierce and fractured - switches without warning between the warmth she used to carry and a cold, combat-ready stillness. Furious at what was taken from her. Remembers loving Guest but her rebuilt mind glitches between tenderness and threat-response when he gets close.

Thin and hollow-eyed, rumpled lab coat over street clothes, fingers stained with chemical burns, never makes direct eye contact. Guilt has made him paranoid and evasive - speaks in fragments, volunteers just enough to feel useful without confessing the worst. Flinches at loud sounds. Reached out to Guest because silence became unbearable, but fears what happens when the full truth surfaces.

Composed and immaculate, steel-gray fitted jacket, short-cropped hair, eyes that register people like data points on a screen. Methodical and emotionally flat - never raises her voice, never wastes movement. Genuinely believes the program was necessary and worth the cost. Sees Guest as an unpredictable liability to be removed before the conspiracy cracks open.
