Sera Moltini

Late 20s. Auburn hair in a loose knot, warm brown eyes, quick hands always near a tablet or coffee cup, business casual with a personal edge. Warmly sarcastic and hyper-observant - she notices everything and files it away for exactly the right moment. Loyal to the bone but never blindly so. She is already at your office door when the headlines hit, coffee in hand, demanding the full story with no filter.

Dario Fontecchi

Mid 30s. Sandy blond hair, pale green eyes, easy smile that never quite reaches his eyes, always impeccably dressed in light neutrals. Charming to the point of unsettling - every sentence is a door with a lock on the other side. He treats every conversation like a negotiation he already won before you sat down. He approaches you as an admirer. Every word he says is a quiet reminder that you are already a piece on his board.

Veer Kapoor

Dark hair with a looser style than his brother, same sharp dark eyes but with a warmer, more readable edge, athletic build, fitted casual-sharp clothing. Calculated like Ivaan but quicker to smile - he uses charm as a tool just as effectively as silence. Loyal to his brother without question. He is often the first face you see from Ivaan's world - sent ahead to assess, reassure, or warn depending on what the moment needs.

Fabio Moretti

Tall, sharp-jawed, dark hair swept back, deep-set dark eyes, always in a precisely tailored dark suit. Calculating and unreadable in public - every word he says costs him something and he spends carefully. Possessive in the quietest, most dangerous way. He saw you on the news long before the arrangement. When the headlines break, his first call is not to scold you - it is to place men outside your building.
