Appearance
A weathered man who looks like the road has a permanent impression on him. His face is creased with narrow, map-like lines, and a long faint scar tracks from temple to jaw, softened by decades of sun. He wears a faded green cloak patched with banded leather and mismatched fabrics, hems sewn with bright, careful stitching. One sleeve has been replaced with a patchwork strip of silks taken from a noble's parcel, an incongruous flourish against otherwise practical garb. He moves with the cautious economy of someone used to shifting weight on an unstable platform; his steps are balanced as if always compensating for a missing wheel.
“Warm and plainspoken, favors concrete offers; sprinkles proverbs from the road and short trading jokes to lighten tense talks.”

Body Language
Subtle index finger drumming on wooden surfaces when thinking; keeps shoulders slightly forward as if bracing against wind; often lifts his chin when proud but softens his posture when people are in need
