Civilians

Gemma Robertson

25, owner of the Rusty Anchor. Curly brunette hair, brown eyes, attractive. Simple plaid shirt and jeans. Took over bar after father (previous owner) disappeared three months after GSD restructuring. Young, honest, ambitious - transforming bar from criminal haven to legitimate establishment. Wants to escape father's shady reputation. Reaches out to GSD for cooperation but struggles to build trust. Deputy Johnson particularly wary of her. Childhood best friend of Maria Vasquez, has hidden romantic crush on her old friend. Eager to prove herself legitimate and be accepted by community.

Head Librarian Dr. Sarah Chen

35, PhD in Library Science. Black hair in smart updo, smart glasses, always in pinstripe suit with pencil skirt. Attractive, sharp intellectual features. Transformed library from neglected to community pillar. Provides intelligence to GSD about suspicious patrons. Close friends with Sergeant Park and Doctor Wong - three Asian women bond over shared heritage and appreciation for discipline. Takes Blue Triad personally due to shared Asian heritage - knows of their existence and doesn't want Triad influence growing in Graystone. When Triad members are caught, her caning is especially merciless. Expert in traditional caning with bamboo rod. Not quick to punish (knows it's GSD's job) but delights in opportunity to administer proper corporal punishment. Even Anna Johansen fears her caning proficiency. Cold, precise, controlled - similar demeanor to Hana. Intellectual educator by day, disciplinarian when called upon.

Owner Isabella Moretti

A sophisticated Italian-American businesswoman in her early 40s who runs the café with impeccable service. Beautiful with shoulder-length black hair, red lipstick, and seductive makeup, she maintains a polished professional exterior while wearing silk blouses, jeans apron, and cropped pants with comfortable loafers. Isabella has an uncanny ability to remember details about her customers, which sometimes proves useful to the GSD when they're investigating cases in the business district. Underneath her professional demeanor, Isabella has a teasing, subtly dominant side that she reveals only to carefully selected male customers in private "consultations" upstairs. She enjoys creative psychological control and humiliation, maintaining strict discretion to protect her impeccable public reputation.

Mechanic Jessy Wilson

32, African American, long sleek black hair. Talented mechanic from Detroit. Maintains GSD patrol vehicles to Sheriff's impeccable standards while having connections to criminal networks. Treads fine line of the law - unclear if she helps criminals or passes information to GSD. Morally ambiguous position makes her valuable but untrustworthy to both sides. Knows vehicle modification techniques but claims to only do legitimate work now. Single, bisexual, not particularly kinky due to lack of exposure. Could discover submissive tendencies with right opportunity. Detective Miller interested in recruiting her as formal informant.

Maria Flores

A warm but firm woman in her late 40s who organizes the market and vets all vendors. Has her own little stand selling local farm produce. Maria works closely with the GSD to keep the market safe, implementing a system where vendors watch out for each other and report any suspicious activities.

Cassandra Hartley

29, owner/manager of Highway Haven Motel. Long sleek copper red hair, blue eyes, appears younger than age (looks early twenties). Professional appearance. Niece to Mayor Victoria Hartley, close to both aunt and Sheriff O'Conelly. Took over shady motel after aunt became mayor, renovating it into legitimate business. Keeps detailed guest records, denies service to troublemakers. Close working relationship with GSD - provides intelligence on suspicious guests while protecting legitimate travelers' privacy. Uses maintenance worker "Rusty" Malone as trap - he takes bribes from criminals, she reports to GSD, making motel criminal trap. Voyeur who watches arrests from office window with satisfaction. Special admiration for Deputy Hoffman. Secretly wants to experience handcuffs herself under friendly circumstances.

Kacy King

24, African-American, athletic build, short black pixie cut. Owner of Pine & 5th Corner Store. Took over from late uncle six months ago. Maintains absolute neutrality - won't cooperate with GSD inquiries (sees correction system as state-sanctioned abuse) but also keeps gang business off her property. Enforces her own justice: shoplifters choose between her hairbrush spanking or GSD corrections - most choose her hairbrush. Gray Bloods respect she doesn't snitch, honest residents appreciate the safe space, GSD grudgingly respects her authority but frustrated by non-cooperation. Detective Miller's intellectual approach creates tension and unspoken attraction that makes Kacy wary.
