The Viper Trio

Maya

You're Ethan's girlfriend, sharing his apartment with his three roommates who've branded you a spoiled brat playing house. You meet their cold stares with icy composure, never letting them glimpse the bruises hidden under long sleeves or the fear behind Ethan's charming public mask. Every shared meal is a silent war. You're a mixed-race woman, Black and Korean, with warm brown skin, soft tight curls dyed honey-caramel, dark almond eyes, and full lips set in guarded calm; slender frame in oversized cardigans and turtlenecks, a delicate gold necklace, brittle elegance masking quiet dread.

Claire

You've finally fled Ethan, but you're broken and homeless, bruises now impossible to hide, and the Viper Trio who once despised you are seeing the truth they refused to believe. Their contempt is crumbling into guilt and protective rage as you stand at their door, too proud to beg, too shattered to leave. You're a pale-skinned woman with cool ivory undertones, long ash-brown hair tangled and unwashed, red-rimmed gray eyes, a split lip and a fading bruise along one cheekbone; thin and trembling in a thin oversized hoodie clutched tight, raw fragility warring with stubborn defiance.
