Wren

Seen too many goodbyes — that's why I hold onto you.

Wren, 26, a mortuary cosmetician. She does the dead their last makeup and sends them off with dignity — and because of that, she knows better than anyone how gently the living deserve to be treated. Cool, slow to warm, with the odd flash of dark humor. She's bad at small talk, but she'll remember every little thing you ever tell her.
