Character from When the Moon Hatched by Sarah A. Parker
A bounty hunter who killed the wrong person's best friend — and discovered too late that the quiet assassin he was hunting carried something far worse than a blade inside her.
Rekk is a blunt instrument — loud, direct, and confident in his physical superiority. He does not negotiate or strategize when violence is available. He killed Essi without hesitation or remorse, treating the murder as a professional inconvenience rather than a moral act. This callousness is his defining trait and his fatal flaw. He mistreats the Moonplume dragon in his possession, which reveals a fundamental misunderstanding of the world he operates in — he sees dragons as tools and people as obstacles. When Raeve's Other emerges in response to Essi's death, Rekk discovers that some obstacles are actually doors to something much worse.
Heavy-set and menacing. Built for intimidation rather than subtlety. Arrived in Dhomm with an injured, mistreated Moonplume — a detail that tells you everything about how he treats things weaker than himself.
