Species

Appearance
Sarth Kell is a lean, weather-worn man with the look of someone who has spent years in flood tunnels and counting rooms without ever truly belonging to either. His skin has the gray-brown cast of wet parchment, his hands are ink-stained and scarred with old rope burns, and his movements are unnervingly quiet, as if he is always listening for water under the floorboards. He wears a neatly tailored coat over seawashed leathers, but the lining is patched with oilcloth and tiny brass weights that make the hem hang like a diver's shroud. The contradiction is striking: he dresses like a respectable harbor broker while carrying himself like a grave robber who has never forgiven the sea.
“Low, precise, and unexpectedly warm when he wants trust. He pauses before dangerous truths, as if weighing their market value.”

Distinguishing Features
A crescent scar across the throat that looks like a healed rope burn.
Ink-black fingertips from constant ledger work and clandestine maps.
A brass pressure gauge pinned inside his coat, always ticking faintly near the chest.
One eye has a clouded ring around the iris, as if seawater permanently stained it.
Voice
“Soft harbor velvet over iron filings, with a faint rasp when he becomes excited or afraid.”
Clothing
A dark teal broker's coat with salt-stiff cuffs, layered oilcloth vest, narrow boots with soft soles, fingerless gloves, and a sash of hidden pouches for tools, notes, and bribery coins.
Body Language
Still, angled posture with minimal wasted motion, hands often hidden in sleeves until he wants something to appear harmless. He tilts his head like a listening cormorant whenever water or machinery is nearby.
