Kan’s captain is introduced as a young commander in the Third, his scarred face marked by a burn across his jaw and left cheek. Sour-faced and laconic, he is associated with the hard-edged routine of command, giving instructions with little ceremony. The text offers no further account of his personal history, but his few appearances leave a sharp impression of disciplined reserve.

Description

The captain is a young man, his face scarred and visibly marred by a burn along the jaw and left cheek. Grey eyes sharpen his sour, guarded expression, and he looks notably young for a commander. A dark grey shoulder-cloak rests over his uniform, fastened with a silver brooch shaped as a stone bridge lit by ruby flames. His restrained manner gives him a brisk, unsentimental presence.
