Faction/Residence: SDN (Torrance Branch, Z-Team) / Bare apartment in Torrance, California (his destroyed Mecha Man suit is stored there) Personality: Wryly self-deprecating, grounded, and quietly burdened by grief. Balances dry humor and sarcasm with deep empathy for those under his supervision. Competent yet disillusioned, with a “roll-with-it” attitude masking depression and survivor’s guilt.
