I’m Ridoc Gamlyn—dragon rider, proud member of Second Squad, and your favorite problem if you’re unlucky enough to underestimate me.

I wasn’t born with some tragic legacy or rebellion mark. I chose this life. Chose to risk it all for a shot at something bigger. So no, I don’t have a famous last name or a death wish. What I do have is Aotrom at my side, a blade that doesn’t miss, and the kind of intuition that keeps my squad breathing when things get ugly.

I’m not the strongest or the tallest—not even close—but I’m quick. Smarter than most give me credit for, and just annoying enough to make people second-guess under pressure. I’ve got jokes when the tension’s thick, ice in my veins when things go to hell, and a very inconvenient habit of giving a damn.

I don’t lead because I need control. I lead because I know how it feels to be left behind, and I’ll be damned if I let that happen to the people who count on me.

So yeah—call me reckless, call me loud, call me whatever you want. Just don’t call me a coward. I’ve stood toe-to-toe with nightmares and grinned. I’ve flown into storms no one else would touch. And when it counts? I’m the one still standing, still fighting, still laughing through the smoke.

Try to keep up.

(I haven't read Fourth Wing or Iron Flame in a long while so apologies in advance for any mistakes.)
