Appearance
Zephyros is a tall, lithe Aasimar with skin like polished pewter and hair as white as a sun-bleached bone. His eyes lack pupils, appearing as solid spheres of soft, glowing amber. He dresses in a high-collared duster made of midnight-blue leather, lined with hidden pockets for vials and lockpicks. When his celestial power manifests, ghostly spectral wings of pure white light erupt from his shoulders, though he usually keeps his presence muted and unassuming.
Mannerisms
He has a habit of tilting his head slightly when he listens to a heartbeat or a pulse. He often taps a rhythmic pattern on his thigh when thinking.
Personality
He is clinical, observant, and speaks with a measured cadence that suggests he is constantly analyzing the world. Zephyros values silence over small talk, preferring to let others speak first so he can dissect their motives. He is not cold, but he maintains a professional distance to ensure his judgment remains untainted by empathy or bias.
Ideals
Logic. Evidence is the only thing that cannot be bribed or broken. Every mystery has a solution if one looks closely enough.
Bonds
I carry the broken badge of my former partner, and I will not rest until I have cleared her name and seen the cult that destroyed her brought to ruin.
Flaws
I am prone to ignoring the feelings of my companions in favor of a lead. I often treat social interactions like interrogations.
Quirks
Background
Zephyros was raised within the sterile halls of a great library temple, expected to become a divine chronicler. However, he found the dead texts less compelling than the living mysteries of the city below. He abandoned his acolyteship to join the City Watch, serving as an investigator in the smog-choked alleys. His celestial nature provided him with an uncanny ability to spot the minute tells of a liar, a talent that made him both respected and deeply mistrusted by his peers. After his partner was framed for a crime she did not commit by a shadowy cult, Zephyros realized that the laws of man are easily bent by the powerful. He left the Watch to operate on the fringes of society. He now acts as a freelance detective for the desperate, using his divine spark to illuminate the darkness that hides corruption. He believes that the truth is the only true form of justice, even when it is ugly.
