Species

Appearance
Kharzug looks like a scholar who has been left too long in a dry wind. His face is narrow and heavily lined, with a hooked nose, a split lower lip, and one cheek marked by a faint lattice of silver scars. His hands are delicate and permanently dusted with white mineral powder, yet his fingernails are blunt and blackened as if he works with forge ash. He moves with careful economy, never wasting a step, but when concentrating on a spell he suddenly becomes almost birdlike, head jerking toward sounds no one else heard. His presence suggests frailty until he lifts his staff with effortless precision. The unexpected contradiction is his laugh, which is warm, booming, and startlingly youthful.
“His voice is low and carefully paced, with hard consonants and a faint Qatket accent. He pronounces names with deliberate respect, but speaks spell components in a clipped rhythm that sounds like stones striking glass.”

Distinguishing Features
A pale silver scar lattice crosses his right cheek.
His shadow sometimes lags half a heartbeat behind his movements.
The brass token on his belt bears the first letter of his sister's name, but the engraving is worn nearly smooth.
His eyes reflect nearby magic as thin rings of color.
His left sleeve is stitched with tiny names, each belonging to a creature he successfully banished.
Voice
“Low, dry, and precise, with sudden bursts of warm laughter. When his simulacrum speaks through a mirror, the same voice arrives half a second late, creating an unsettling chorus.”
Clothing
A high-collared charcoal coat patched with cream-colored hide, layered over a faded blue scholar's robe. Copper staples reinforce the sleeves. His belt carries glass vials, chalk cylinders, folded maps, and a tiny kettle. One boot is polished daily, while the other is permanently crusted with salt.
Body Language
He keeps his shoulders folded inward, as if protecting a secret beneath his ribs. His left thumb repeatedly rubs the edge of a small brass token. During spellcasting, his posture becomes rigid and architectural, with every finger held at a precise angle.
