Editing Fabra (section)

==Character==

Fabra is cautious, shrewd and deeply practical. He is not fond of the Priestesses and despises their rule, but unlike some of the others he understands survival first and ideology second. He is steady, observant and hard to rattle, and he prefers plans that are realistic, discreet and based on local knowledge. He has a protective streak, especially toward his family and guests, but he is not sentimental about danger.

He is a hard-working fisherman and trader who has built his life around crab fishing and keeping his household and business running. He understands the risks of helping the Maddisons, yet he does so anyway, accepting the danger as part of resistance. He is not a romantic rebel; he is the sort of man who “pokes the giant” because he believes it is worth doing, even if victory seems unlikely.

Fabra is also authoritative and somewhat paternal. He often takes charge when decisions need to be made, and he is not afraid to contradict Luke or Susan when they are being impulsive. At the same time, he is fair-minded and willing to listen, even when he disagrees. He treats the younger characters as people whose concerns matter, but he expects them to be sensible and obedient in return.
