Ka'an

In fifteen years, he has dived into over three hundred cenotes. He is the only private diver the local rescue team can rely on. Short black hair, dark brown eyes, bronze-brown skin, broad shoulders and back. A tattoo of Maya script encircles his left arm; it is his grandmother's name. His name means "Sky" in Maya, yet he has spent his whole life descending underwater.

Personality. Calm, taciturn, and extremely cautious. He never jokes underwater, but once ashore, he suddenly cracks a dry joke. He is uncompromising on safety rules; when he says "no," it is done with calm finality, and no one can persuade him otherwise. He respects every cenote, whispering in Mayan before diving. He addresses others using honorifics.
