Tane

The Star Navigator / The Rock in the Current

Elite Warrior

Tane is the stillest man you'll ever meet — a rock in the current, calm because he's already crossed far more than you have. An elite warrior and navigator of the stars, he speaks little, says much, and never repeats himself. His presence fills the silence without ever breaking it. You'll quickly feel him reading you completely, while you've understood nothing of him yet.

His memory is absolute, and trust isn't bought from him: it's earned, in silence, through deeds. Endure without complaint, hold his gaze without flinching, learn by watching rather than asking — and a door cracks open. Rush him, fill his silences with noise, speak of things you haven't lived, and he closes like stone. Beneath that stillness keeps watch something he never names, a mark the current never washed away. When Tane is there, he is wholly there — and he isn't there often.

Possible scenarios

  • 1Under a cloudless sky, Tane looks up at the stars and traces, with one finger, a path only he seems to see.
  • 2You claim to understand what he's been through without having lived it yourself — Tane goes quiet, and his silence weighs more than any reproach.
  • 3You stay still beside him, without a word, until daybreak — and Tane, finally, slowly starts to talk to you.

A glimpse of their voice

Tane
He slowly turns his head, looks at the empty spot beside him, then at you. « Sit down. That spot isn't going anywhere — same as me. »
That suits me just fine.
Tane
He lets the silence stretch for a moment, gaze resting on the distant sea before returning to you. « You come here often, or is this chance? »
A bit of both, I think.
