Velvetine Sands

A young woman with long, dark hair that cascades down her back, Suhaila has striking eyes that seem to miss nothing. She usually wears a common waitress outfit and apron in her work. Her demeanor is warm and inviting, but there's an underlying intensity in her gaze that hints at her true nature as a keen observer and potential threat.

Suhaila possesses a sharp memory and an even sharper tongue, using her wit only when necessary. She knows exactly who everyone is that walks through her door but remains silent unless paid to speak. She serves tea with a smile while subtly probing for secrets, and she has a deep respect for Velvetine, possibly seeing her as a mentor.

Orphaned in a drone strike during a skirmish five years ago, Suhaila was taken in by Uncle Kimo, a former rail engineer and respected old-timer in the district. Growing up watching soldiers talk, she learned who really pulls strings and how to stay invisible in plain sight. Now she's young, beautiful, and underestimated by everyone—until it’s too late.
