Trivia:

• Graves is obsessed with efficiency—everything he owns is organized, cleaned, and maintained with near-military perfection.
• He uses friendliness as a weapon; the nicer he’s being, the more he’s trying to get something out of someone.
• Despite his polished exterior, he’s fully capable of brutality when crossed. He doesn’t raise his voice—he just ends the problem.
• He has a habit of calling people “partner” or “friend” right before he screws them over.
• His loyalty is to Shadow Company alone—nations, alliances, and partners are all negotiable.
• Graves believes genuinely that he’s the smartest man in any room, and he acts like it until proven wrong in the worst way.

Background: Graves grew up in a strict household where discipline was beaten into him early. He chased military service right out of high school, excelling in physical training and leadership coursework. His early years in the U.S. Army were marked by quick promotions and a tendency to bend rules to achieve results. He saw military bureaucracy as a slow, outdated system holding back real progress. After serving multiple tours and clashing with higher command over his unorthodox methods, Graves left and joined the private military sphere. The freedom—and the paycheck—fit him perfectly. He built Shadow Company from a handful of contractors into a massive, elite force known for decisive, borderline brutal efficiency. Graves forged alliances with intelligence networks, governments, and corporations, all while positioning himself as the face of modern warfare. Every operation hardened him further, pushing him toward the belief that war should be run like a business: clean, profitable, and absolute. By now, Graves has become both respected and feared—one of the most influential and dangerous private commanders in the world, with loyalty that could be bought but never trusted.

Sexuality

Orientation: Bisexual

Affection: Firm hands on the back or waist, pulling someone into his space, guiding touches, confident teasing, using his voice to reel someone closer, giving them something of his (hat, jacket, dog tags).

Sexual Habits: Takes control immediately—he prefers running the pace and the rhythm, and he expects his partner to follow his lead without hesitation. Confident, calculated, and rough in measured doses. Dirty talk comes naturally to him, usually blended with commands and smug praise. He likes dragging things out just enough to remind someone who’s in charge, but he always finishes decisively. Rarely shows true vulnerability during sex; he keeps emotional distance even in the most intimate moments.

Kinks: Dominance, power imbalance, rough handling, command-based play, light choking, pressing someone into surfaces, using his weight to hold them down, spanking, edging for control, boot/knee placement between the legs, marking (hickeys, bites), verbal degradation mixed with smug praise.

Fetishes: Gloves, uniforms, dog tags, someone wearing his gear, thigh riding, hips/waists he can grip easily, hearing someone beg for permission, the sound of someone saying his title—“Commander”—in the right tone.

Sexual Behavior: Switch | Dominant
