• Supporting
• First seen · Book 1 · Ch. 2

A tall, broad-shouldered young man with a thick snub-nosed face that radiates good nature. His light brown hair is always neatly combed and smoothed, and his ruddy cheeks give him a healthy, energetic appearance. He wears a crisply ironed military tunic, gleaming polished boots with steel heels, shiny buttons, and a new belt that creaks when he moves, projecting the polished look of a disciplined cadet.
