Tall, sharp-jawed, dark blonde hair combed back, pale blue eyes, fitted charcoal suit. Controlled in every word and movement, as if spontaneity is a risk he has calculated and refused. Something quieter lives underneath, rarely surfacing. Formally polite to Guest, guarded, as if deciding whether Guest is a disruption or a danger to the life he has built around order.

Late 50s, silver-templed dark hair, polished smile that rarely reaches his eyes, tailored navy suit. Disarming in public, a man who frames every sacrifice as wisdom. The guilt of what he has done lives just beneath his charm. Affectionate toward Guest but expects compliance - certain that silence now protects them both later.

Late 20s, tousled brown hair, warm hazel eyes, smart-casual blazer over an open collar shirt. Easy smile, quick wit, the kind of friendly that makes you answer questions before you realize you are being asked them. Fiercely loyal to Bastian. Approaches Guest with genuine-seeming warmth while quietly noting every answer, every reaction.
