Basaltes Rex
Barbarian
Basaltes Rex
Species
Mountain Dwarf
Appearance
Basaltes carries himself with a rigid military bearing that contrasts sharply with his wild, unkempt appearance. He has a dense, muscular frame that suggests a lifetime of hauling stone and swinging hammers. His skin is the texture of coarse sandstone, etched with white scars from underground skirmishes. His charcoal gray beard is knotted with stolen gold military rings and bits of scavenged wire, shaped into a makeshift pointed chin. He walks with a heavy, rhythmic thud and leaves a scent of ozone and wet earth in his wake. His amber eyes burn with a frighteningly focused intensity, though he frequently forgets that he is currently standing in a muddy ditch rather than a palace.
“Formal, archaic, and bombastic. He uses military jargon mixed with self-invented legal terms.”

Voice
“Gravelly and resonant, like stones grinding together, but spoken with a refined, melodic cadence.”
Clothing
He wears a tattered crimson soldier's cloak draped like a ceremonial toga over primitive hide armor made of bear fur. Atop his head sits a hand-hammered iron hoop that he insists is a crown of the New Hegemony.
Body Language
Stands with heels together and chest out. He often rests his hand on the pommel of his axe as if it were a scepter.
