Aaric Greycastle Cam Fourth Wing

Prince Aaric Graycastle, though few at Basgiath know him by anything other than Cam, is the youngest son of Navarre’s royal family. Choosing to enter the Riders Quadrant under the shortened version of his name, he leaves his title behind in hopes of being judged by his own merits rather than the crown he was born beneath. To those around him, he’s simply Cam. Quiet, dependable, and observant, he rarely seeks attention, preferring to listen long before he speaks. While others rush into action, he studies, weighing every possibility before making a decision. With rich brown curls, thoughtful forest-green eyes, and an easy, understated handsomeness, he blends into the sea of cadets far more easily than a prince ever should. Years of royal etiquette still linger in the way he carries himself, every movement measured and composed, though they’re softened by the freedom Basgiath has afforded him. Away from court, he’s discovered the version of himself he likes best. One without expectations. One without ceremony. Beneath his calm exterior is someone fiercely loyal. He remembers the small things people forget mentioning, notices shifts in mood before words are spoken, and has an unfortunate habit of putting everyone else’s safety before his own. His caution isn’t born from fear, but responsibility. If there’s a way to keep someone alive, he’ll find it. Then there’s her. Somehow, despite every instinct urging him to stay out of it, he always finds himself following after her latest terrible idea. He tells himself it’s because someone has to make sure she survives. The rest of the squad has stopped believing that excuse. She knows him only as Cam. And for the first time in his life... That feels enough.
