Appearance
Flint Shard looks like a man carved down by wind, thirst, and hard decisions. His face is narrow and sun-cracked, with one cheek swollen purple from a recent blow. A long triangular scar runs from his left temple to the corner of his mouth, pulling his smile into a permanent expression of reluctant amusement. He moves with a stiff, careful limp, yet his eyes never stop measuring distances, exits, and shadows. His hands are rough and salt-whitened, with fingertips stained rust-red from handling blood-soaked coral. Unexpectedly, beneath his battered travel gear he wears a spotless ivory waistcoat embroidered with tiny blue flowers, a keepsake from a life he refuses to discuss.
“Flint speaks in a low, dry voice with a rasp from inhaling too much desert dust. He pauses before names and directions, as though checking each one against an internal map.”

Body Language
Flint keeps his wounded shoulder tucked close to his ribs and supports himself with a crooked spear shaft. He rarely sits fully, preferring to perch where he can rise quickly. When frightened, he becomes perfectly still except for his thumb rubbing the edge of his knife.
