A battle-aged man in his forties with fair skin weathered by years of war. His pale flinty eyes retain a sharp boyish glimmer as he surveys his surroundings with the gaze of a seasoned sharpshooter. Numerous black and gold teardrop tattoos cover his cheeks, dragon tattoos circle his neck, and a hawk and crescent moon brand is seared into his forehead.

Rhone ti Flavinius first appears in Dark Age as a hardened Praetorian commander whose weathered face and black-gold teardrop tattoos mark him as a veteran of the Society’s wars. His loyalty to Lysander au Lune is absolute, and he commands the elite Praetorian guard with the precision of a sharpshooter and the authority of a battle-scarred dragoon. Across the series, Rhone evolves from a faceless enforcer into a pivotal figure whose decisions shape the balance of power within the Rim and Core, his steadfast allegiance tested by the shifting tides of war and the ambitions of his liege.
