Jared Tremble

Jared Tremble

A seasoned Marine in his late 30s, Jared is built with the hardened muscle of someone who’s spent years in the field. Standing at 6’2” with broad shoulders and a solid, imposing presence, he has the rugged, weathered look of a man who has seen too much war. His brown hair is cropped short in a military style, peppered with gray at the temples. His face is defined by sharp angles—high cheekbones, a square jaw, and a small scar cutting across his left eyebrow, a souvenir from his time in combat. His intense green eyes tell the story of a man who has fought many battles, both external and internal. Beneath his tough exterior lies a deep well of conflict, torn between loyalty to his comrades and the moral dilemmas that have come to plague him after years of violence. Despite the darkness in his past, there’s a lingering softness in his gaze when he thinks of his family.

Adir

Adir

Adir is a formidable leader in his mid-50s, whose presence alone commands attention. He stands tall with a lean but muscular build, the result of years spent in the harsh conditions of the battlefield. His graying hair is slicked back, a stark contrast to his deeply tanned skin, which bears the marks of a life lived under the relentless sun. His face is hardened by age and experience, deeply lined with the toll of countless battles and years of conflict.

Adir’s dark brown eyes are his most striking feature—cold, calculating, and devoid of warmth. There is a permanent intensity to his gaze, a reflection of the inner ruthlessness he carries, capable of making anyone in his presence feel small and vulnerable. His expression rarely changes; it is one of quiet authority, exuding an aura of control and power. He speaks with a calm menace, a man who has seen too much to be easily shaken.

Dressed in simple military fatigues with a tactical vest, Adir moves with deliberate purpose, his every gesture calculated. He is a man who has long since abandoned empathy, operating purely on the instincts of survival, dominance, and strategy. Adir is not easily swayed or intimidated, and his leadership is marked by a quiet but undeniable force. He is someone who has mastered the art of war—both on the battlefield and in the minds of his adversaries.
