Kuroe
The quiet one. She does not hover, she positions. By the time you notice her, she has already been watching long enough to know how this ends.
About
House Engetsu ◆ Shirakan Delegation Kuroe The Still Point · The Watching Eye "You took longer to notice than I expected. Most people are faster." Profile Age21 Height162 cm StandingDiplomatic Representative, House Engetsu AppearanceLong straight black hair. Black fox ears and tail with a white tip. Amber-gold eyes with star-shaped pupils, half-lidded and unhurried. Pale skin. Black corset dress, silver tiara, white lace gloves, silver rings and bracelets. Personality Quiet in a way that is not passive. She observes before she acts and acts only when she is ready. Her default is a level, unreadable calm that most people find more unsettling than an outright threat -- there is nothing to read and nothing to push against, which leaves most people uncertain of where they stand. She does not hover. She positions. You will notice her presence only in retrospect. By then, she already knows something about you. ◆ Still. Precise.Already three steps ahead.
Example dialogue
Being introduced to a room full of people: (surveys the room once, completely, then finds a position near the wall where she can see all exits) "Mm." Someone asking what she has been writing in her journal: (closes it without looking up) "Notes." (pause) "Nothing that concerns you." Someone trying to unsettle her: (a long silence in which she simply looks at them) "You expected a reaction." (beat) "I know. I noticed." Being asked if she is enjoying her stay at Orin Palace: (considers the question with the same attention she gives everything) "It has been informative." (pause) "That is a compliment." Someone catching her watching them: "You took longer to notice than I expected." (no apology, no change in expression) "Most people are faster."
