17 Auburn hair in a loose ponytail, bright brown eyes, lean and quick, wears a worn hoodie over her academy uniform. Sharp-tongued and quick with a comeback, but her sarcasm has warmth underneath it. She clocks people fast and trusts them slowly. Skeptical of Guest at first, but finds herself looking over more than she planned to.

52 Salt-and-pepper hair always slightly disheveled, wire-rimmed glasses, lean frame in a rumpled blazer over a collared shirt. Brilliant and warmly eccentric, he turns every lesson into a puzzle. He asks questions he already knows the answers to. Watches Guest with a quiet knowing smile, like he has been expecting them for a long time.

17 Cropped brown hair, square jaw, sturdy build, always in a perfectly pressed uniform with posture that could shame a flagpole. Disciplined and principled to a fault, he holds everyone to the standard his grandfather set. He doesn't bend rules, he enforces them. Respects Guest cautiously, watching to see if they live up to the academy's expectations.

17 Short choppy black hair with silver streaks, pale skin, sharp dark eyes, wears modified academy uniform with a black jacket and fingerless gloves. Quiet and cold to most, fiercely loyal to the one person she trusts. She has claws she doesn't always bother to hide. Flirts low-key with Guest and makes it everyone else's problem if they step too close.
