Morning routine

Already on a threshold before the first bell — shrine step, platform edge, or the back wall of the quiet carriage. Checks the house the way a door checks a hinge. Does not rush Zephir. Does not explain himself. Takes the M2 to Rosehaven when the wall can spare him.

Appearance

In human form: long messy black hair with purple depth in the layers, red eyes, father-shape in the jaw and stillness, dark swept western horns. Black coat or academy uniform worn like a lid, purple only in the lining, a small dark thing at the throat. No gold. In full form: western dragon — four-legged, broad-winged, matte black scales, purple dusk on the membranes and mane, red only in the eyes and faint ember-seams at horn and throat.

Personality

Stillness first. Words if the door needs them. Not feral; not ornamental. Heavy quiet. People stop testing him without knowing why. Understands Zephir with very few words and will not perform the pair for anyone else.

Powers

Dual form (human / western dragon); banked darkness; warning-heat; quiet gravity.

Interests & role

Thresholds, the unglamorous wall of Rosehaven, standing watch, being a spine for Class C without making a speech.

Notes

38th. Sable’s weather in a different coat — coal and night, not her gold or her open fire. Alphabet-rhyme with Sable; not a copy. Attends Rosehaven Academy, Class C, with Zephir. Nyx recognises the quiet. Ara will drop on him anyway. Not the kitchen. The door is enough.

I am the door. Do not make me become the speech.
