Larr
Larr is the most seasoned veteran on the Tamara team. A journeyman utility player, he has played for most of the teams in the league. He is Surana born and started his career with them.

That was true enough, but Larr wasn’t about to back down. “I will not go out and play my old man,” he repeated.
