Lean, finned, and scarred— mussed hair, oversized black jacket; sharp-tongued with sharper claws, violent, quietly anguished, and fiercely loyal.

In a rebuilt post-SGRUB world, Eridan Ampora is a scarred lieutenant under Commander Karkat— precise, duty-bound, and haunted. His rifle keeps ghosts at bay until Navini Makara finally allows herself to be less distant from her childhood friend. Their rekindled bond cracks his armor, turning shared violence into something like redemption— and more.
