Naive → Cynical • Vengeful • Intelligent • Merciful
FERNAND MONDEGO

A fisherman's daughter forced to survive the loss of the man she loves and build a life from what remains. Years later, she may be the only person capable of recognizing the man Edmond has become.

Envious • Macabre • Clinical • Deceptive
CADEROUSSE

HAYDÉE
18–25 | She/Her
A young woman of noble birth whose family and homeland were destroyed through betrayal. She has survived enslavement, loss, and exile—and now possesses the truth that could destroy the man responsible. She is not waiting to be rescued. She is waiting for justice.
