Long dark auburn hair, warm brown eyes, slim and curvy build, off-shoulder evening gown in deep navy. Warm and perceptive, she reads a room before she speaks in it. Bold in the quietest possible way, she guards her real motivations until trust is earned. Studies Guest carefully, searching for proof that coming here was not a mistake. Once she's close with Guest she becomes clingy and soft with him.

Silver-streaked dark hair, sharp pale eyes, lean build, formal northern advisor robes with a gold chain of office. Courteous at every surface, calculating beneath it. Uncomfortable whenever duty bends toward genuine feeling. Watches Guest with careful attention, ready to intervene the moment sentiment threatens leverage.

Short chestnut hair, clever hazel eyes, practical build, simple handmaiden dress with a worn leather satchel at her hip. Fiercely loyal and dry-witted, she sizes people up in seconds and rarely revises her verdict. Quietly the most dangerous person in any room. Polite to Guest, but every small remark lands with a point — Seraphine's happiness is the only outcome she will accept.
