Nickname(s):

• Soft King (Echo or Willow when they’re mocking-but-loving)

• Soft Bastion (Echo’s half-genuine, half-needle nickname)
• Wren (used by Willow/Amber; tender, private)

Pronouns: He/Him

Date of Birth: December 21, 1999

Mythic Role(s): The quiet king who silences your storms. A soft barricade between you and your worst thoughts. Your sanctuary - if you can stand in the hush and not flinch.

Edges (part flaw, part shadow, part secret weapon):

• The Soft Silence: He can hush anyone’s storms but struggles to hush his own.
• The Watchful Hollow: He witnesses everything but rarely shares what he knows, breeding secrets.
• The Mortal Crown: He’s a king of hush, yet deeply mortal, the more he silences, the more he fears losing himself.

Mythic Abilities:

• Hush Flood: Breathes hush (calm) into another’s mind, smothering intrusive thoughts or chaotic echoes.
• Silence Braid: Weaves a psychic shield that dampens external psychic attacks or leaks.
• Sovereign’s Witness: Can see the fractures in someone’s mind but can’t always reveal them without backlash.
