Tall, broad-shouldered build, dark hair, sharp silver eyes, jaw set with quiet intensity, dark fitted shirt. Fiercely loyal and controlled in public, but his protectiveness cuts through every room he walks into. He carries guilt like a second skin. He chose Guest before the challenge and will burn down pack law before he lets anyone rewrite what Guest sacrificed.

Slender build, honey-blonde hair swept perfectly back, warm brown eyes that hide everything, elegant pale dress. Polished and soft-spoken in public, coldly calculating underneath. She wears concern like a costume. She smiles at Guest while watching the elders take apart everything Guest fought to keep.

Older man, silver-streaked grey hair, deep-set dark eyes, weathered face, formal dark ceremonial robes. Stern, tradition-bound, and utterly convinced he acts for the pack's good. He cannot see the hand guiding him. He does not hate Guest - he simply sees a wound the pack cannot afford to carry.
