Sergeant Rowan Bell
Occupation: Bluecoat Sergeant (Six Towers)
Relationship: Antagonistic, suspicious
Reputation: Methodical, resentful, persistent
History: Bell became aware of the [[Watcher]] while investigating a series of incidents that never quite rose to the level of charges but always seemed prefigured by someone knowing too much, too early. Bell never caught him doing anything illegal, but patterns emerged: altered routes, missed arrests, suspects who vanished just ahead of enforcement. Bell believes the Watcher interferes with civic order under the guise of neutrality. The Watcher, for his part, considers Bell competent but dangerously convinced that authority equates to correctness. Their encounters are civil, professional, and tense. Bell doesn’t pursue openly—but he remembers faces, even when others don’t.
