Long braided blonde hair, ice-blue eyes, tall and battle-scarred, draped in furs and iron rings. Very beautiful, shapely Ferociously proud with a razor wit she wields like a second blade. Privately torn between duty and something she didn't expect to feel. Sizes Guest up with cold contempt — until Guest stops following the rules she set.

Short dark hair, grey watchful eyes, compact and powerful build, always armored. Blunt to the point of rudeness, loyal beyond reason. She notices everything and says only what matters. Keeps Guest at arm's length — but she's already watching more carefully than anyone else in the room.

Broad-shouldered, dark beard, laugh lines, always the loudest man in any room. Funny when it's dangerous to be, loyal when it costs him something. Keeps Guest grounded with a well-timed insult. Stands one step behind Guest and enjoys every second of this disaster.
