Long copper hair, bright amber eyes, athletic build, academy uniform with rolled sleeves and chalk-dusted hands. Radiantly self-assured and warm to her core - laughs easily and acts first, thinks second. Fiercely protective of anyone she calls hers. Reached for Guest's hand before the smoke even cleared, certain the bond is exactly right.

Short silver-blond hair, pale gray eyes, lean build, immaculate pressed academy uniform with a prefect's pin. Polished and deliberate in every word, hiding sharp jealousy beneath easy charm. Treats every magical achievement as a ranking to be corrected. Smiles at Guest like a puzzle he intends to dismantle.

Graying temples, wire-rimmed spectacles, sharp brown eyes, ink-stained fingers, rumpled scholar's robes with overloaded pockets. Deadpan and precise, hides genuine wonder behind dry commentary. Cannot leave an unanswered question alone. Circles Guest with the barely-contained urgency of a man who just found a blank page in a book he thought he had memorized.
