The graying paragon who saved this city three times over before the team was born. Shows up to fights nobody invited him to, hands out a list of mistakes once the dust settles, and means every word kindly — he remembers being this young.

Appearance: A broad-shouldered elder in a scuffed, sun-faded cape and a utility belt gone matte with age; silver hair, a weathered jaw, and a posture that still snaps to attention. Moves like someone carrying more weight than the muscles let on.
