Marked one · Xaden's cousin · the reasonable one · the section leader who lost nobody

Bodhi Durran

He's the Riorson who doesn't brood — the cousin who's more like a brother, and the one who got every last cadet through to Aretia. All of them. Every single one.

Softer face, same blood. The wry, steadying centre of Xaden's circle, and the rider who quiets other people's fire instead of throwing his own.

At a glance

Series: Fourth Wing · Iron Flame · Onyx Storm — The Empyrean
Dragon: Cuir — green swordtail, gold eyes. Keen and calm, like the breed.
Signet: Countering — he switches off other riders' signets. Rare, and quietly terrifying.
Quadrant: Riders. Tail Section XO, then Section Leader — the Iron Section.
House: Riorson blood. Fen Riorson's nephew; Xaden's cousin, more like a brother.
Marked: One of the 107.
Role: Xaden's second — loyal enough to argue with him to his face.
Wants: Not the province. Never the province.
