Jareth Bronze-Scale
Species
Dragonborn (Bronze)
Appearance
Jareth is a tall, methodical bronze dragonborn with deep warm scales that shift from polished penny to dark old-copper along his shoulders and spine. His finger pads are permanently calloused and faintly stained with black archival ink, and his swept-back crest horns form tidy horizontal ridges like the slats of a filing cabinet. Clear amber-gold eyes remain magnified behind delicate wire-rimmed optical lenses, which he adjusts with one claw whenever a lie enters the room. He moves with economical precision, never wasting a gesture, yet his heavy tail occasionally betrays his mood by tapping out counting rhythms against the floor. His scales suggest a soldier's armor, but he handles frightened defectors with the gentleness of a midwife. The unexpected contradiction is his smile: broad, almost boyish, and genuinely warm, appearing most often while he describes the worst crimes hidden in a document.
“Jareth speaks in a low, measured voice with immaculate diction. He pauses before important nouns, as though checking their classification.”

Distinguishing Features
Amber-gold eyes behind wire-rimmed optical magnifiers.
Black ink permanently staining the pads of his fingers.
Neat horizontal ridges across his swept-back crest horns.
A tail that taps in coded counting patterns when he is thinking.
A thin white scar across the left side of his muzzle from a temple seal knife.
A faint smell of cedar shelves, ozone, and sealing wax follows him.
Voice
“Low, warm, and carefully paced, with a faint rasp like a quill moving across rough paper.”
Clothing
Utilitarian charcoal archivist leathers lined with hidden document pouches, narrow cipher wheels, wax-removal tools, and emergency identity papers. He wears velvet-lined finger caps for reading seals by touch, soft split-soled boots, a weatherproof half-cloak, and a belt of labeled brass keys. Every item is arranged according to a private indexing system.
Body Language
Jareth keeps his shoulders square and his hands folded behind his back when listening. His head tilts by precise degrees as he evaluates evidence. He touches the rim of his optical magnifiers when suspicious, drums his tail when calculating, and becomes unnervingly still when furious.
