Late 20s Lean athletic build, messy brown hair, tired eyes behind a sharp gaze, worn street clothes under a half-unzipped hoodie. Protective to the point of control, carrying guilt like a second skeleton. Tests everyone before letting them close. Treats Guest like a mistake he has to fix - and can't quite decide if fixing means training them or shutting them down.

Mid 20s Dark curly hair pulled back loose, sharp brown eyes, olive skin, practical jacket over layered tops, always looks like she knows the fastest exit. Reads people in seconds and rarely softens the verdict. Loyal to her block before anything else. Watches Guest with cautious respect - impressed, but not yet decided.

Early 40s Tall, pale, silver-streaked dark hair slicked back, cold blue eyes, tailored dark coat with sharp lapels, moves like someone who enjoys being watched. Calculating and theatrically cruel - turns every situation into a performance with him as director. Has singled out Guest as the pressure point that breaks Peter Parker apart.
