Ilyan Qadira
Species
Human
Appearance
A long-limbed human with warm brown skin and the quiet, balanced posture of someone accustomed to standing watch through the night. He rests his weight on the balls of his feet, then moves in smooth, heel-light steps, as if approaching a sleeping animal. His hands are broad and ink-stained; when he turns, tiny gold motes sometimes drift from his sleeves and vanish before they touch the floor. Though he served as a tomb guardian, his laugh is unexpectedly loud and delighted, and his expression seems more welcoming than solemn.
“Gentle, deliberate, and plainspoken. He leaves a small silence after important questions, as though allowing another listener time to answer.”

Alignment
Distinguishing Features
His waiting posture is pitched forward, with heels nearly lifted and hands held as if sheltering an unseen lamp.
He moves with soft, measured steps despite the heavy maul at his back.
The linen hems of his travel robes are repaired with fine gold thread.
His unexpectedly booming laugh carries across a quiet room.
Voice
“A low, warm baritone with a dry rasp at the edges; his loud laugh surprises people who expect a solemn priest.”
Clothing
Layered sand-colored travel robes beneath a dark teal half-cloak, reinforced with discreet bronze scales at the ribs. He wears a linen sash knotted with small brass prayer discs, soft boots, and a battered leather harness for his maul. The garment hems are carefully mended in contrasting gold thread.
Body Language
He waits with his heels barely touching the ground and one hand cupped as if shielding a small flame. When uncertain, he rubs his thumb over the braided grip of his maul; when he has made a decision, he becomes startlingly still.
