Austen MacGregor Clinkscales was a Grayson citizen of the Clinkscales Clan and Regent of Harrington Steading in the 20th Century PD. He was tall by Grayson standards, but not as tall as his cousin, Carson Clinkscales. When his uncle, Howard Clinkscales, died after a long life in 1920 PD, Austen took over as the day-to-day ruler of Harrington Steading in Honor Harrington's name. His uncle had prepared him for the role for years. (HH11)
