Sevro au Barca
MajorA wiry, pale-skinned man with a sharp hooked nose and a hawkish face lined by deep wrinkles. His hair stands spikily on end, and one eye has been replaced by a gleaming bionic implant. Thin freckled arms and bony fingers mark his lean frame, while a massive black-and-gray wolf tattoo stretches across his back. He wears black standard armor topped by a wolf-head helmet and often drapes a wolf pelt over his shoulders, giving him a feral, boyish menace.
Sevro au Barca begins as a feral, wolf-obsessed Howler lieutenant whose loyalty to Darrow is absolute, yet his arc expands from battlefield berserker to politically astute warlord. Across the series his bionic eye and wolf pelt become symbols of both trauma and leadership, while his once-childlike menace matures into calculated ruthlessness tempered by unexpected tenderness toward his own growing family. By the later books he transitions from Darrow’s shadow into an independent power whose decisions can sway the fate of the Republic itself.
