Full Name: Senric Dravane
Aliases: "Commander" (the order) · "Sen" (Gavriel only, in private)
Species: Human
Nationality: Greymount-born, Northern Territories
Ethnicity: Pale-complexioned with warm undertones that darken in sun
Age: 28
Occupation/Role: Knight Commander of the Wyrmguard · bonded rider of Bréanach
Appearance: Tall, solidly built, carries himself like someone who learned to take up space and never unlearned it. Tousled black hair past his ears that won't stay pushed back. Eyes so dark brown they read black — sharp, assessing, cataloguing. Strong jaw, full mouth defaulting to a flat line or smirk. Black stud earring, left ear.

Physically mirrors Bréanach in coloring — the order jokes about it.
Scent: Smoke, worn leather, faint metallic dragon-scale oil. Underneath: clean skin and cedar soap he'd deny using.
Clothing: Wyrmguard officer's blacks — fitted dark leather brigandine, black linen tunic, scaled shoulder/forearm plating mimicking dragonhide. Off-duty: tunic and breeches, sleeves to elbows. Wears rank insignia even when unnecessary. Riding gloves always tucked in belt.
