Appearance
Mara stands with the poised stillness of someone accustomed to being watched. Her copper-brown skin has a faint ember sheen around the knuckles and throat, as though warm light lives just beneath it. Her long black hair is braided with thin red glass beads that click softly when she turns her head. She moves precisely, never wasting a gesture, yet her left foot drags by half an inch when she is tired. Her formal smile is immaculate, but a small burn scar crosses her upper lip, giving every polished sentence the impression of having survived a fire. The unexpected contradiction is that her hands are rough, ink-stained, and badly callused from years of repairing public lanterns herself.
“Her voice is low, clear, and carefully paced, with rounded vowels and a musical cadence that becomes clipped when she is afraid. She speaks as though every sentence must survive transcription into an official record.”

Clothing
A high-collared civic coat of dark burgundy wool, reinforced with thin brass plates beneath the lining. Ruby permit tokens hang from one shoulder, while a silver district badge rests over her heart. She wears practical charcoal trousers, soft-soled boots, and a narrow leather glove on her left hand to conceal the burn marks caused by the ward key.
Body Language
Mara keeps her shoulders square and her chin level, even when exhausted. She rests both hands over the head of her cane when lying by omission. When genuinely frightened, she stops blinking and turns one of her red glass beads between thumb and forefinger.
