Notes
- He is notably tall, similar to Orris and Lucullus.
- During Render Unto Caesar, Canyon Runner will not speak about the Weathers family. He only says to speak with Cursor Lucullus as Caesar does not like to be kept waiting.
- Canyon Runner could be considered a more friendly member of the Legion, as he speaks to the Courier in a more pleasant manner than other Legionnaires.
Appearances
