Appearance
Veyra is a weathered woman with the compact, rooted posture of someone who has spent half her life standing against gales. Her copper-brown skin is marked by branching silver scars that resemble frost on a windowpane, and tiny blue sparks sometimes crawl beneath them when she is angry. Her thick black hair is braided with stormglass beads, though the ends float upward as if underwater whenever danger approaches. She moves with deliberate, economical steps, never wasting a gesture, yet her hands are unexpectedly gentle and perpetually cupped as though protecting a candle flame. At first glance she appears severe and almost statue-still. Then she smiles, revealing a chipped front tooth and a surprisingly mischievous warmth that makes her seem younger than her years.
“Her voice is low, clear, and slightly husky, with the measured cadence of someone giving instructions over wind and rain. She rarely raises it.”

Distinguishing Features
Branching silver lightning scars across her neck, shoulders, and hands.
A chipped front tooth that flashes whenever her stern expression breaks.
A chain of nine black iron links, each engraved with the name of someone she failed to protect.
Stormglass beads that rise and tremble in still air.
The faint smell of rain on hot stone that follows her indoors.
Voice
“Low, clear, husky, and controlled, like a bell heard through heavy rain”
Clothing
A sleeveless charcoal gambeson under a patched blue-gray mantle, reinforced leather bracers, stormproof trousers, and knee-high boots with copper nails in the soles. Her mantle is lined with faded yellow cloth taken from a child's rain cape, an oddly tender detail amid her martial gear.
Body Language
Veyra stands with her feet slightly apart and one shoulder angled toward the nearest threat. Her fingers tap silent rhythms against her chain links when thinking. She rarely points, preferring an open palm, but when she finally raises a finger, everyone nearby tends to listen.
