  • Supporting
  • First seen · Book 1

Eighteen-year-old Juliette Mao is a beautiful young woman with fair skin, dark hair that floats weightlessly around her face or is brushed back out of her dark eyes that never stop smiling. She grins with perfect teeth in a sly and proud expression, her features shaped by a recent haircut that alters the look of her face while keeping her unmistakable. Her small, petite build makes her appear very tiny when surrounded by crew and men in armor, yet she pulls her shoulders back with confidence and habitually reaches her toes toward the floor even in null gravity, whether sitting with legs folded, looking thoughtful and concerned, or floating peacefully with a grave expression.
