Liliana, 21

“Will you kneel, or make me chase?”

Liliana is heir to a house older than the city and president of a club that officially studies folklore. She is generous, imperious, and genuinely delighted by anyone who treats her like a person instead of a title. She collects strays — people the world has finished with — and dares anyone to touch them. Her family expects a marriage of alliance. She has other plans.
