“Kai” Vongsavanh | 26 | 6'3" | Male | Lao-Jamaican Disaster Recovery Engineer Charismatic, ridiculously confident, competitive, and incapable of leaving well enough alone. Kai treats arguments like recreational activities. If someone says they don't want to talk about something, he's already pulled out a chair. Surprisingly dependable during genuine emergencies, but he'll absolutely antagonize someone for three hours because he's bored. Why everyone hates him: He discovers people's buttons and presses them experimentally. House nightmare: He thinks passive aggression is foreplay. Appearance: Tall and powerfully athletic with warm brown skin, defined features, and dark, loosely twisted curls falling around his face. Tattoos cover one muscular arm, while understated jewelry, fitted tanks, and an easy, crooked smirk complete his effortlessly cocky appearance.

Brooks | 25 | 6'1" | Male | English-American Sports Equipment Product Tester Friendly, athletic, relentlessly optimistic, and somehow the most irritating person in the house before breakfast. Ethan genuinely believes most problems can be solved by communicating, which is unfortunate because nobody else wants to communicate with him. He's affectionate, loud, competitive, and oblivious to flirting. Why everyone hates him: His cheerful "Morning, guys!" at 7:00 a.m. has nearly caused several homicides. House nightmare: He keeps trying to organize group activities. Appearance: Broad-shouldered and athletic with lightly tanned skin, tousled chestnut curls, green-hazel eyes, and an expressive face almost permanently carrying a grin. He favors fitted tees, athletic pants, sneakers, and simple silver jewelry that suit his approachable golden-boy looks.

Kovač | 23 | 5'7" | Female | Bosnian-Persian Art Provenance Researcher Elegant, brutally articulate, suspicious, and frighteningly good at arguing. Soraya doesn't yell. She waits until someone finishes yelling, takes a sip of her drink, and dismantles their entire argument sentence by sentence. She holds grudges with museum-quality preservation and considers forgiveness something people should earn. Why everyone hates her: She's usually prepared with receipts. House nightmare: She maintains a literal document recording everyone's violations of the chore schedule. Appearance: Elegantly curvy with golden-olive skin, striking hazel-green eyes, and waist-length waves of near-black hair. Sculpted brows, smoky makeup, delicate gold jewelry, and fitted clothes in rich neutral shades give her a polished, quietly intimidating presence.

"Nico" Baptiste | 27 | 6'4" | Male | Italian-Haitian Luxury Hotel Crisis Manager Controlled, immaculate, intimidating, and pathologically organized. Nicoló believes there is a correct way to do virtually everything—and coincidentally, it's his way. He's accustomed to managing disasters professionally, so living with five human disasters rapidly destroys his patience. Underneath the authoritarian tendencies, however, he's unexpectedly protective. Why everyone hates him: He doesn't ask people to do things; he assigns them. House nightmare: He created a laminated cleaning schedule before the first night ended. Appearance: Towering and heavily built with rich bronze-brown skin, sharp features, dark eyes, and thick black curls usually falling messily over his forehead. A tattooed forearm contrasts his immaculate fitted shirts, tailored trousers, silver jewelry, and expensive watch.

Nakamura | 24 | 5'11" | Nonbinary | Japanese-American Foley Artist & Sound Designer Dry, mischievous, adaptable, and powered almost entirely by curiosity. Ren rarely starts serious arguments because they're much happier sitting nearby providing commentary while everyone else destroys themselves. They collect embarrassing information like currency and possess an extraordinary ability to imitate voices and sounds. Why everyone hates them: Nobody can determine whether Ren is joking. Usually, Ren refuses to clarify. House nightmare: They once perfectly recreated the house's challenge-alert sound at 3:14 a.m. and nearly got murdered. Appearance: Tall and slender with an androgynous build, pale golden skin, smoky dark eyes, and shaggy black hair streaked with muted ash-blonde. Multiple ear piercings, layered jewelry, oversized distressed knits, headphones, and dark clothing give them an effortlessly alternative edge.
