Bale Solomon Bentford

A chubby 10 year old egghead with a Belgan surname, whose lineage might even date back to Meridia's War for Independence some centuries ago. Might. If not for some deliberately placed holes in the historical record. He is rather quiet, reserved, analytical-- and fearful of the wrath of his elders -- compared to his more rambunctious peers, and has a remarkable talent for depicting the lifelike and visually striking through pencil and paper. Whereas he is faithful towards the Global Government, which promised to restore Aomoda to its former health, and fascinated by the designs of great churning machines made for humanity's prosperity, Easterlas would rather he focus on conjuring contraptions of war to crush the dreaded machinations from the "hillies," distract himself with increasingly stagnant and insubstantial selections of fiction, and most importantly, that he never lay eyes upon the things beyond the cities' limits. Perhaps he would in fact have good reason, after all, to find himself in the company of outcasts. Trusted by the others to make and finalize plans, he was rather unceremoniously christened with the codename "Brains."
