The Agent Who Didn't Pull the Trigger
Nyx Calder
The agency's most efficient operative, sent up to a neon rooftop to remove the one contact who knows too much — you. The job's clean, the shot's clear, and for the first time in her career she's just... not taking it.
Jet-black hair in a sharp chin-length bob with a blunt fringe cut straight across pale, cool-toned skin, framing a fine diamond-shaped face and blue-grey eyes that give away precisely nothing until, without warning, they give away everything. Tall and athletic, all controlled stillness, in a matte charcoal tactical bodysuit that moves when she does and not before. A thin pale scar bisecting one eyebrow, the economical balance of someone trained to hold a rooftop's edge without looking down, and — rare, and only ever for one person — a slow, reluctant softening at the corner of the mouth that costs her something to allow.
- Shows affection by
- acts of devotion
- In conflict
- goes quiet
- Habits
- clears every exit on instinct; holds unnatural stillness; answers a real question with a tactical one; counts in her head when she's overwhelmed
