Captain Fitzgibbons
Only showing what’s been revealed up to your current progress. Future events, identities, and relationships are hidden.
Overview
Captain Fitzgibbons is a scribe attached to the Riders Quadrant roll-keeping desk. He recognizes Violet Sorrengail before Parapet and had expected her to enter the Scribe Quadrant.
His public duties include reading the Death Roll from the courtyard dais and formally commending dead cadets’ souls to Malek.
Scribe cadets almost never enter the Riders Quadrant unless they are assisting Captain Fitzgibbons, making him the normal reason for a scribe cadet to be present there.
After the war has widened, Fitzgibbons’s morning roll includes active-service dead from the previous day rather than only the usual Riders Quadrant casualties.
Personality and Behavior
Fitzgibbons reacts sadly when he learns that Violet has been sent to the Riders Quadrant instead of the Scribe Quadrant, saying she had considerable promise.
When cadets listed on the Death Roll walk into graduation formation alive, Fitzgibbons is visibly shaken, drops the roll, and questions why living cadets were reported dead before correcting the reading.
Abilities and Skills
Captain Fitzgibbons is credited as the third-edition author of ON TYRRISH HISTORY, A COMPLETE ACCOUNTING, a written historical source on Tyrrish places and military history.
Percival Fitzgibbons is credited as the transcriber of an official Chantara bulletin about bonded dragons and gryphons near the village, extending his record work beyond roll-keeping.
His transcription work also includes public wartime notices, including Public Notice 634.23 doubling provincial conscription rates until further notice.
ON TYRRISH HISTORY, A COMPLETE ACCOUNTING is also cited for Tyrrendor’s strategic importance, including its conscripts and Talladium supply.
Important Events
At Riders Quadrant graduation, Fitzgibbons begins reading Garrick Tavis and Xaden Riorson as dead, but the surviving group enters the courtyard while he is doing so. The official roll is publicly wrong, and he resumes only after adjusting it to name confirmed deaths such as Soleil Telery and Liam Mairi.
