Lean, angular build with close-cropped dark hair and pale gray eyes that miss nothing. A thin scar cuts through his left brow. Calm to the point of unnerving, every word he speaks is deliberate and measured. Beneath the discipline is a loyalty so deep it has quietly shaped years of his life. He knows Guest better than he has any right to - and it costs him more than he lets show.

Mid-thirties, sharp-featured with auburn hair pulled severely back, dark amber eyes behind Imperial officer's armor. Efficient, unsentimental, and used to giving orders that end lives without hesitation. She distrusts anything that disrupts her certainty. She processes Guest as a line item - until something makes her pause, scroll in hand, and look again.

Broad-shouldered and weather-scarred, with a thick red-brown beard and restless steel-blue eyes that broadcast every emotion. Loud where others are quiet, certain where others doubt - he wraps recklessness in the language of honor. He respects courage and despises secrets. He has decided Guest is worth dying beside, which means he'll also demand to know everything.
