i think gustaf for sure gives me the vibes of, here's this wild, crazy cleric who maybe came from outside the city and his intensity blows the roof off any room he's in and he's tolerated but not well-understood, vs. mahesh who i think can integrate more fully and maybe while being an outsider is still more accepted, more closely listened to, a bit more like a rasputin type in the sense of how he integrates into the upper class world? that's my read on them visually, idk if either/or is a direction you'd want to take the character in, but just the impression i get!
