Young adult female: Maren

Young adult female, mid-20s. Modern Irish-American or Southern-inflected accent. Vocal texture is clear but carries a gritty, hardened edge from trauma. Pace is urgent and instructional, marked by high emotional tension and a survivalist's focus. She speaks with the authority of a reluctant expert, blending vulnerability with a sharp, defensive resolve.
