The Line

The General: Battle hardened. Self-sacrificial.  Willing to make difficult decisions if it brings the next Starfish home. Runs the SafeHouse with militaristic precision and fatherly devotion. Fras’s protector.
Esther Schwartz: Twenty-six. Deeply maternal. Artist. Jorie wrangler. Finding her place in the SafeHouse. Longs for the life stolen from her. Fras looks to her for guidance and grounding.
Frasier Gray: Twenty-one. Survivor. Sniper. Miracle Boy. Heartbeat of the Line. Prone to seizures, aggression surges, and self-destruction. An angel in combat boots. Maya’s right-hand--and toughest patient.
Maya Blue: Twenty-one. Registered nurse. SafeHouse’s silent engine. Keeps everyone alive through sheer willpower. Kind. Capable. Patient. Brilliant. Fras’s right hand and closest companion.
Reuben Smith: Twenty-five. Impulsive. Acts first, thinks later. Swearing as a love language. Uses humor to mask deep-seated pain. Brave to a fault. Deeply loyal to his people. Fully capable. Fras’s final wall of protection.
James Price: Sixteen. Profoundly Deaf. Finding his voice. Cautious. Curious. Observant. Desperate to prove himself. Maya’s newest trainee. Stronger than he knows. Fras’s wildcard.
Jorie Knox: Fifteen. Blind. Genius inventor. Sporadic. Optimistic. Bubbly. Attached to Esther’s hip. Glitter Bomb enthusiast. Mr. General’s greatest nightmare. Potential rap sheet…probably not. Fras’s command center.
