**Disposition:**  
Quiet, disciplined, deeply routine-driven.

Dorrin is a man of habit — and habits do not change without reason.

Dorrin Blackwake is built like weathered stone — compact, heavy, and immovable.

His skin is rough from years of exposure to sea wind and freezing spray.

His beard, once dark, now carries streaks of grey and salt residue that never fully washes out.

He smells faintly of oil, smoke, and the sea.

He wears a heavy oilskin coat at all times, even indoors.

Around his belt hangs a ring of thick iron keys — each one tied to a different mechanism within the lantern tower.

In one hand he often carries a long iron hook used to adjust and clean the beacon light.

##### <span style="text-decoration: underline;">**Role in Moonrest Haven**</span>

Dorrin maintains the **Moonrest Beacon**, a tall wooden-and-stone structure overlooking the harbor.

Its purpose:

• guide fishing vessels safely home  
• warn ships away from hidden reefs  
• signal dangerous conditions

The light burns every night.

Without exception.

Everyone knows:

• the beacon has never failed under Dorrin’s watch  
• he climbs the tower every night regardless of weather  
• he rarely drinks or socializes

Children are told:

*"If the light goes out, something is very wrong."*

#####  <span style="text-decoration: underline;">**Personality**</span>

Dorrin is reserved and precise.

Traits:

• Highly disciplined  
• Minimal speech  
• Observant  
• Resistant to change

Typical dialogue:

*"The light stays lit. That’s what matters."*
