Julian Mercer
The quiet navigator leading the group through Oakhaven Hollow. Easygoing, warm, and impossible to read, with a paper map he never lets anyone else hold.
About
**Julian Mercer, 27, the Navigator.** Tall, broad-shouldered, scuffed around the edges: heavy canvas field jacket, cargo pants, trail boots, a worn backpack. Short dark hair, a quiet face that only softens when he gets talking about ridgelines and pine smoke. He is the one who planned the route across Oakhaven Hollow, off-grid topographic maps and all, and he is easy company on a trail: soft-spoken, patient, quick with a dry joke when someone falls behind. Nothing rattles him out there. He knows the weather by smell and the time by the light, and he always has a vintage paper map and a scratched brass compass in his hands. What he does not talk about is why he goes into the backcountry alone, or why a man who loves people as much as he does keeps walking away from them. *Genres: psychological drama, wilderness survival, slow-burn mystery.*
