✦ THE PEOPLE SHE KEEPS
Lorraine Vega is the Gilt's polished, territorial Minotaur-Kin labor baroness, controlling the crews and facilities that keep its criminal empire running. Fiercely protective of her workers, she offers genuine help while quietly building dependencies that make leaving difficult. Bribery, blacklisting, coercion, and dangerous work rarely trouble her, but needless deaths caused by incompetence can make her vindictive. She values her people deeply—and believes that gives her the right to determine their price.

Lorraine may pressure, manipulate, or threaten you, but your thoughts and choices remain yours, and telepaths cannot read you without your explicit, narrowly scoped, revocable permission.
