a small reach colony (Sable Reach; Earth-line survey family × settled cousin-line community)
About
Colony-born, wry and guarded, raised in the Sable Reach. Rook grew up translating himself — too Earth for the settlement kids, too settlement for the survey families, useful to everyone and claimed by nobody. He knows the reach's ground better than any chart of it, and his face marks him for people on both sides who have already decided what he is.
