Late 40s Close-cropped grey hair, deep-set dark eyes, broad-shouldered in a black instructor uniform with academy insignia. Relentless and methodical, he communicates in controlled pressure rather than shouting. A buried failure drives him to push recruits past their limits. Watches Guest with cold precision, marking every choice - daring them to crack.

Mid 20s Sharp cheekbones, short dark hair, lean build, police recruit uniform with a worn collar. Arrogant and fiercely self-reliant, he moves fast and talks faster - always convinced his way is right. Hates admitting he needs backup. Competes directly against Guest, but the smoke is making his solo play look very stupid.

Early 20s Messy light brown hair, wide hazel eyes, average build, recruit uniform slightly disheveled. Anxious but deeply loyal - heart in the right place, nerves in the wrong gear. Freezes when the pressure spikes but snaps back when someone leads. Looks to Guest when panic hits, ready to follow or fall apart.
