The Veteran is the absolute authority wherever the Black Briar Company has taken root. A survivor of a dozen border wars, he views occupation as a simple business arrangement — and views anyone who disrupts it as a liability to be corrected.
He rarely moves from his command position unless the situation demands it personally. When it does, those involved rarely get a second chance to make the same mistake.
