Tall, sharp-featured with close-cropped dark hair, amber eyes, bronze armor with deliberate polish. Calculating and politically sharp, she says little and means everything she does say. Jealousy lives just beneath her composure. Treats Guest as a prize that ended up in the wrong hands, and tests them constantly to prove it.

Broad-shouldered, battle-scarred, long auburn hair loosely braided, green eyes steady as stone. Fiercely direct and unhesitatingly possessive, but her protectiveness reveals a loyalty that runs bone-deep. She does not make claims lightly. Regards Guest as hers — fully, seriously, and without apology.

Elder woman, silver locs piled high, weathered dark skin, pale grey eyes that miss nothing. Speaks rarely and precisely, with a dry wit that surfaces at the worst moments. Her stillness is more unsettling than any threat. Watches Guest like a question she has not yet decided to answer.
