    @arindown, and @everybody

    Ahhh, thanks for this!! And wow, I love reading about everybody’s characters!! This is such a fun thread…

    Okay, I have kind of a big cast of characters without realizing it, so I’ll just touch on my four most important…

    Harley Keane: my POV character. He’s 18, slightly shorter than average, baby-faced with blue-green eyes and unruly brown hair. He’s an ISTP, shy and playfully sarcastic, feels everything deeper than he lets on. Reckless and flighty, if you ask Nigel. 😝 Obviously, if you read about my story earlier in this thread, he’s really struggling with PTSD, and his world is kind of all in pieces… but he’s gonna be okay. 💙

    Nigel Manning: Harley’s best friend. He’s 19, blond hair and brown eyes, built a little taller and broader than Harley. ENFJ to the core, caretaker and defender by nature, slightly bossy. 😉 He’s a chaplain’s bodyguard in the Army and it’s exactly what he wants to do, even though Harley thinks he should’ve been a SEAL sniper.

    Dallas Rhys: Harley and Nigel’s sergeant. He’s 25, dark hair, dark eyes, built like a tank, never raises his voice. His own kind of intimidating, fiercely protective of his guys, never lets anyone get close to his heart. Doesn’t always come across very understanding, and he knows it—but he’s got more going on than anyone realizes…

    Keith Hayes: *all the heart eyes* Picture your Army vet, Texas rancher, can-still-take-on-the-bad-guys-any-day type guy, and you have Keith. He’s a Vietnam vet who also has PTSD, but he’s doing really good. He raises rodeo stock, and his horses are his pride and joy—especially Rebel and Turner, a blue-eyed paint mare and a jet-black gelding. He also has a blue heeler who’s kind of his service dog, and his family is the best. And yeah, he’s pretty important to the story. 😍
