Sekeir begins as an ancient honorspren and leader of the fortress, appearing alongside Kelek. When Kelek is removed, Sekeir takes up the role of High Judge and presides over the trial, his authority hardening into opposition. His elevation turns a venerable figure into a consequential antagonist, defined by the power of the judgment he now controls.
Description
Sekeir is an aged honorspren with an overstuffed appearance and a long blue-white beard that dominates his silhouette. He wears formal judge’s attire, carrying himself with the weight and stiffness of office. His bearing can shift from affronted indignation to solemn authority, while the text leaves his facial features and other colors undescribed.
