Wingleader: J'ian (m) of blue Verath (NPC)J’ian was in second wing in his younger turns but a leg injury made him, while not totally unfit for duty, unable to fight effectively. His intelligence and dedication however saw him awarded a wingsecond post in 4th-2 at the age of twenty six despite the colour of his dragon. He is fiercely proud of his wing though some speculate that this is all talk, believing that he wishes he still flew with the higher wings. Anyone trying to move up and out of his wing can expect to be met with extreme animosity. Now aged thirty eight he has been in his post for a turn after the death of the previous wingleader in a Fall. J'ian is a small man and tends to wear boots with a small heel to compensate a bit. He owns a brown firelizard named Brave, who lives up to his name.

Fourth Two is one of the two disaster relief wings. Where conflict or natural disaster threatens or has devastated communities these individuals swoop in to rescue who they can and to deal with the aftermath. Sometimes their operations are quite quick (for example spending a few days re-routing a river that is threatening a cothold) while others may last months in the case of having to set up and manage refugee camps until people can return home or be resettled. Members of fourth wing are expected to be competent in combat should things turn ugly all of a sudden, but they need only hold things together until First Wing arrives and then offer support to the elite riders.
While the 4th wings do very important work they tend to be looked down on by the combat wings as not having been 'good enough' to make the cut into their elite club. The fact that a member of 4th wing needs rather different skills to those in wings one through three is often muttered amongst 4th wing riders and ignored by combat wing riders though of course this varies between individuals. There are a few more men than women in the 4th wings but only because High Reaches, due to a bias in Searching, has slightly more male riders overall.
J'ian became wingleader in turn 2: he was promoted by G'vian when the previous wingleader was killed in a Fall.
