Lexis

First seen: Book 1, Chapter 27

An associate producer for Dungeon Crawler After Hours with Odette. Human but not from Earth, absurdly thin with a squished, almost elf-like head. Delivers an on-air interview invitation the moment Carl and Donut reach floor 2.

NPC

Physical

Feels hollow, almost weightless, like a bird, when she touches Carl's shoulder in passing, despite insisting she's really there in the production trailer with them.B1C28

Human but not from Earth, absurdly thin without being anorexic, more squished, about five foot five with a head only about three-quarters as wide as it should be, giving her an almost elf-like look without pointed ears. Roughly Carl's age, Asian features, long blonde hair in a tight bun, wears a simple black dress and carries a tablet.B1C27

Location

New Queen Anne, a survivor camp in Seattle, during an extractionB4C35

Enters the production trailer ahead of the interview, stopping dead once she senses the tension between Carl and Loita; later scrambles between the trailer and the studio chasing Odette's own outbursts, apologizing on her behalfB3C35
