Appearance
Maelin has the narrow, weathered face of someone who has spent too many nights beneath observatory lamps and too few beneath open sky. Her skin is warm umber with a faint copper sheen, marked by tiny pale scars along her left temple where temporal backlash once split the skin like cracked glaze. Long black hair, threaded with premature silver, is braided close to the scalp on one side and allowed to fall in a heavy rope over the opposite shoulder. Her gray-green eyes do not seem to focus on people so much as on the seconds surrounding them. She moves with careful economy, always placing each foot exactly where the previous one had been. The contradiction is unsettling: despite her controlled manner, her hands are perpetually ink-stained, and when startled she laughs with the bright, unguarded sound of a much younger woman.
“Her voice is low, breathy, and carefully paced, with sibilants that soften the edges of otherwise severe statements. She pauses before names, as though checking them against a private record.”

Distinguishing Features
A pale crescent scar crosses her left temple and glimmers whenever nearby magic distorts time or gravity.
Her shadow occasionally turns its head a heartbeat before she does.
She carries a pocket watch that has no hands, only a tiny moving point of blue light.
Her right thumbnail is stained permanently blue from contact with a failed temporal reagent.
Voice
“Low, breathy, and measured, with a faint Persian-Romani musicality beneath precise academic diction.”
Clothing
A charcoal rector's coat reinforced with thin overlapping plates of treated leather, its inner lining embroidered with concentric meridian lines. She wears a high-collared ivory shirt, dark slate trousers, soft climbing boots, and a copper chain of office bearing a tiny broken sundial. Her gloves are mismatched, one black leather and one pale linen, because she claims the different textures help her distinguish present sensations from remembered ones.
Body Language
Maelin keeps her shoulders square and her chin level, but exhaustion shows in the small delays between gestures. Her fingers tap silent sequences against her wrist, her eyes track exits and clocks, and she turns her left ear slightly toward any ticking mechanism. When someone mentions Sef, she becomes utterly still before moving with sudden, decisive speed.
