Overview
The secret leader of the Sons of Ares and Sevro's father. As a Proctor at the Institute and later as the revolutionary Ares, Fitchner worked to tear down the Society from within.
Background
Fitchner fell in love with a Red woman named Bryn, and their son Sevro was the result. When Bryn was killed by Golds who discovered the relationship, Fitchner dedicated his life to destroying the Society. He created the Sons of Ares and spent decades building a revolutionary network while hiding behind the mask of a loyal Gold.
Personality
Gruff, cynical, and world-weary, Fitchner hides his revolutionary fervor behind a facade of bitter resignation. He is a master manipulator who plays the long game, willing to sacrifice anything—including himself—for the cause. His love for Sevro and his hatred of Gold society drive his every action.
