Gave Entrone debuts in The Lost Metal as the polished, smug lord mayor of Bilming whose refined exterior masks a weary, ruthless opportunist. Across the novel he shifts from a seemingly untouchable political figure to a captured traitor whose schemes are dismantled by Marasi and her allies. His arc reveals a man who cooperates with Autonomy out of fear, plots against Telsin Ladrian, and ultimately loses control of the Community he once ruled.

Description

Gave Entrone is a man with slicked-back black hair and a prominent angular chin. He dresses in fine formal suits with a hat and diamond cufflinks, often displaying a smug closed-lip smile. A human man with slicked-back black hair and a sharply jutting chin, dressed in an elegant dark formal suit or coat, with a formal hat when the scene calls for it. His expression is a closed-lip, smug smile, and his face has a wan, tired cast with bags beneath his eyes, lending his polished appearance a worn, severe edge.
