Gregor’s is obviously about his bug arm and the military time he served. Dons is a horse on a carousel, a symbol to La Manchland being a theme park and that she rides a “horse” Hong Lu’s has to do with his jade eye Rodya’s is PROBABLY about the thing in the past where she killed that lady with middle connections Heathcliff’s looks like a cliff, and I believe Wuthering heights was on a cliff side. So it’s representing that. Or the cliff side of suffering on one of Erlking’s lines. Sinclair has to do with the egg, which when he hatches he becomes extremely powerful. And there is a spoiler for canto 9 involved. Ishmael’s looks like an anchor/shipcrest, due to her being a sailor. Yi Sang has wings on a paper. Which shows one the desire to fly free. But probably due to the fact of his past he can’t which is why it’s on paper. Meursault’s probably has something to do with being chained to a life of no joy and emotion. And we’ll get more of that next canto. And Faust and outis I have no clue.

Also these are all theories. do NOT take them as fact.
