        It’s awkward when Heidi Barrie and Billy Crandle join up, because Heidi knows exactly what’s going on with the whole hyena motif.  “Look, being vegan and hurting bad people have nothing to do with each other,” she points out, and they become the feared ashigaru snipers.  They don’t delight in the fighting as the rest of the family does, which also means they get uncannily good at ending it without excess suffering.  They do convert a few of the Slayers to also being vegan, but are generally quiet and friendly (unless they join one of the family’s game nights; then they get competitive).

       They get matching tattoos—some flowers and a weird vine-creature motif.  Most have only seen them once.
