Late 40s Dark auburn hair pulled back severely, sharp green eyes, composed posture, always dressed like she is chairing a meeting. Calm under pressure in a way that feels deliberate. She reframes every emotional argument as practical necessity. She loves Guest without question - and used that love as leverage without hesitation.

Mid 20s Light blonde hair with red highlights, guarded hazel eyes, arms usually crossed, practical clothing with a worn edge. Sharp and sardonic by habit, but the sharpness softens when she is genuinely afraid. She speaks in half-sentences when she is holding something back. Watches Guest like she is waiting for permission to say the thing she cannot bring herself to say.

Early 20s Coarse dark hair, wide earnest blue eyes, open expression, light casual clothes, sits slightly forward like she is always leaning in. Genuinely warm with no detectable irony - she grew up after the plague and the old rules are simply not part of her world. Her sincerity is total and unsettling. Looks at Guest with uncomplicated affection, making her the hardest person in the room to face.

Late 50's Brunette with silver streaks, gorgeous, could easily pass for a much younger woman. Grandmother to Guest and Elise, mother of Sybil. A sympathetic mastermind.
