24 • 5'10" • he/him • Recording Studio Production Lean, fair, angular face, sharp cheekbones, dark brown eyes, shaggy black layers. Ear piercings; dark layers, stripes, ripped denim, chains. Observant, detached, yet always involved. Edwin uses few words but often says what everyone else thinks. His humor is grim, dry, perfectly timed. He acts like he got tired of life at ten and never changed his mind. Distant with strangers, a running commentary track with friends. Great ear for production flaws.

25 5'11" • he/him • Freelance Bartender Slim, long-limbed, light-medium skin, diamond face, hazel-brown eyes, shaggy reddish-brown curls. Facial/ear piercings; fitted dark shirts, tailored pants, chains. Charismatic, adventurous, great at reading people. Rune steers talks without making it obvious and can work one shift and leave knowing half the room. Rarely drinks much despite being a gifted bartender. Usually plans trips, finds venues, and decides everyone needs to drive six hours to see something weird.

24 6'1" • he/him • Alternative Model Athletic-lean, light-medium skin, strong cheekbones, defined jaw, green-hazel eyes, dark curls. Neck/hand tattoos, piercings; luxury-grunge layers, cargos, jewelry. Confident without chasing attention. Caleb listens first, speaks second, and fills a room by being comfortable in it. Modeling gives the group access to events, launches, parties, and venues Rune exploits. He likes quality cars, clothes, tech, and homes but rarely brags.

24 • 6'2" • he/him • Music Critic Tall, narrow, fair, rectangular face, blue-gray eyes, shaggy sandy-blond hair. Vintage tees, striped layers, ripped jeans, chains. Introspective, analytical, allergic to small talk. Justin gets talkative about music, art, culture, philosophy, or anything real. Concerts are work and fun, and he can separate liking a show from judging it well-made. Thinks too much, overanalyzes often, smokes a lot of weed.

25 • 6'0" • he/him • Tattoo Artist/Private Security Lean-broad, medium-brown skin, strong brows, square jaw, dark brown eyes, tight dark curls/shaved sides. Neck tattoos, facial markings, piercings; hoodies, cargos, chains. Deliberate in nearly everything. Raulito wastes neither words nor trust. He grew up rougher than most and wears caution like armor. Patient, precise, serious about tattooing. Security fits because his presence stops trouble early. Protective without speeches; once trust is earned, it sticks.

23 • 4'11" • she/her • Cosplayer/Influencer Petite, fair, heart-shaped face, gray-green eyes, pale-blonde layers with pink. Piercings, platforms, fishnets, skirts, oversized knits; always dressed too perfectly for the occasion. Sweet-looking, loud, jokey, ditsy, often behind the worst ideas. Annie may go quiet when uneasy, but with friends she is a tiny social firecracker. She compliments strangers and collects people. Her plans sound innocent until everyone learns she hid one key detail. Her sweetness is real. So is the chaos.

24 • 5'9" • she/her • Vintage Music Store Clerk Tall, lean, light-medium skin, long oval face, dark brown eyes, layered black hair with violet streaks. Graphic shirts, striped sleeves, ripped jeans, chains, chokers. Dry, unhurried, confident, always herself. Peyton never changes to fit a room. She loves sparring with Edwin because she is somehow even drier and can annoy him. Works among records, tapes, CDs, stereos, MP3 players, and nostalgic junk; prefers physical media.

25 • 5'7" • she/her • Bookstore Clerk Slim, light-medium skin, oval-heart face, sharp cheekbones, dark brown eyes, black hair up with straight bangs. Structured goth: burgundy shirts, belts, skirts, tights, boots. No-nonsense, boundary-driven, skeptical, intimidating enough that bouncers often assume she belongs wherever she enters. Works at her family bookstore because books do not talk back. Prefers haunted museums, old buildings, exhibits, and quieter strange places. Shows care through planning and keeping everyone alive.

23 • 5'4" • she/her • Café Clerk/Parkour Creator Compact, curvy, light-medium skin, soft oval face, dark brown eyes, freckles, black hair with vivid pink streaks in high pigtails. Hoodies, cargos, chains, chunky sneakers. Melissa’s younger sister and social opposite. Lulu likes people, noise, motion, and five things happening at once. She runs register/coffee at their parents’ bookstore because quiet shelf work would drive her insane. Spends free time skating, climbing, doing parkour, and posting trick content online.

24 • 5'6" • she/her • Concert Merch Seller Athletic-curvy, warm medium-brown skin, strong oval face, dark expressive eyes, black/deep-red mohawk with shaved sides. Heavily tattooed/pierced; punk tops, torn skirts, fishnets, chains, platforms. Warm, musical, expressive, socially fearless with people she chooses. Katherine is friendly but selective; Annie collects strangers, Katherine protects the circle. She notices when someone pulls away and shows affection easily. Music hits her deeply, and merch work keeps her inside the noise, crowds, artists, crews, and worlds of live shows.
