Rhazek Steam-Vein is a broad, adult half-dragon whose brass-gold scales are darkened at the joints by ingrained mineral dust. His muzzle is blunt and square, with small hornlets swept backward like forged rivets. He moves with deliberate economy, placing each boot as though testing a bridge before crossing it. His armor creaks, vents, and gives off the smell of hot iron, but his hands are meticulously clean, the nails scrubbed pale despite the quarry dust. The contradictory impression is immediate: he looks built for breaking stone, yet handles ledgers, tools, and injured workers with almost surgical delicacy. When calm, his breath comes in measured, nearly silent intervals. When angered, each exhale clicks through his teeth like a cooling furnace grate.
