Holter Steele

Born John Reeve, Holter Steele is Soldier of the Grove’s Summer Court.

Overview

A very straightforward man, Steele is utterly devoted to the ideals of the Summer Court. This, alongside his great political acumen, has seen him placed as the advisor to the current sovereign, Rosalinda Romero, dealing with many of the minutiae of day-to-day rulership.

Due to lingering resentment prior to the Grove’s consolidation into one freehold, Steele gravely distrusts the Sun and Moon Courts, something that puts him at odds with unification faction members like Jack White and Sister Solaris.
