A courtesan.
"Whether driven by fear, greed or cunning, one thing is clear: none can be trusted."

Courtesans, more commonly referred to as prostitutes, are women who offer their services at the Golden Cat brothel.

According to the Heart, many of the Golden Cat's courtesans come to the brothel from farmlands, enticed by false promises of factory work.[1] Others are given to the Cat by families too poor to feed them, while still others are bastard daughters banished to the brothel.[2]

They are only encountered during the mission, House of Pleasure.
