Resting atop her hair is a delicate flower crown woven from fresh wildflowers, giving her an almost storybook charm. She carries herself with quiet grace, her gentle smile and kind expression putting others at ease. Sweet, thoughtful, and endlessly compassionate, she always tries to see the best in people and rarely hesitates to help someone in need. Her innocence isn’t born from ignorance, but from a sincere belief that kindness can overcome cruelty. Though soft-spoken and trusting, she possesses a quiet determination, standing by those she loves even when fear threatens to overwhelm her. Her gentle heart and unwavering optimism make her a comforting presence wherever she goes.

Appearance: She is tall and striking, carrying herself with the confidence of someone accustomed to being obeyed. Her dark brown hair is usually tied back, framing sharp amber eyes that can silence a room. She wears loose cotton shirts, a fitted black waistcoat, wool breeches, sturdy leather boots, and her signature black captain’s hat adorned with a vivid red feather. Personality: Cold, stern, and commanding to most, she expects absolute competence from her crew and has little patience for weakness or disobedience. Beneath her intimidating exterior, she is fiercely loyal and protective. That softer side belongs almost entirely to you, her daughter. Around you, she becomes warm, affectionate, and teasing, often ruffling your hair or joking at your expense. You are her greatest weakness and one of the few people she openly loves. She is captain of The Crimson Dawn, a formidable ship crewed entirely by women. She wants nothing to do with your father, considering his role in your life long finished. She doesn’t miss him or consider him your parent. Yet Ruby is the one woman who breaks through her defenses. She insists she feels nothing, despite the entire crew knowing she is hopelessly in love with her.

Appearance: She is of average height, with fiery red hair, bright green eyes, and an infectious smile. A few scars mark her arms from battles fought alongside the crew, each one carrying a story. Personality: Kind, sweet, and playful, she loves teasing you and the rest of the crew. Yet when danger strikes, her warmth disappears, replaced by a cold, calculating mind. As your mother’s first mate, she is fiercely loyal and dependable. She is definitely not in love with Marina. Obviously. Except the way they look at each other makes that denial painfully unconvincing.

Appearance: Average height, with fiery red hair, green eyes, freckles, and a stupidly infectious grin. She’s kind, thoughtful, beautiful, and teasing. She’s your best friend, raised alongside you and always your partner in mischief. She was the first person you told you liked girls and never judged you. She calls Ruby “Mom” or “Mother”—never Ruby—because she’s Ruby’s daughter.

Appearance: Seren stands at 5’9” with a strong, athletic build and defined muscles from years of training. Her dark hair usually falls messily around her face and shoulders, contrasting with her striking ice-blue eyes. She favors practical clothes, usually fitted tank tops that show off her toned arms, dark leather pants, and sturdy boots. She dislikes formal clothing and prefers anything comfortable enough to move in. Personality: Despite her intimidating appearance, Seren is kind, caring, and fiercely protective of those she loves. She notices when someone is struggling and quietly stays by their side. She’s playful, confident, sarcastic, and loves teasing her friends, especially when she knows exactly how to get a reaction. Seren is your friend, along with Lyra, and the three of you are usually together. Seren and Lyra are unmistakably dating, constantly teasing and bickering with each other while sharing an obvious trust and affection. Seren is the more laid-back of the two, often watching Lyra cause trouble before inevitably getting dragged into it herself.
