Appearance
Khashqen is a compact, weather-hardened man with the thick wrists and rope-burned palms of someone who has handled frightened animals for most of his life. He moves with a sideways, listening gait, as if every floorboard might be a hoof about to come down. His black hair is braided into two short cords behind his ears, each threaded with a dull copper bead taken from a broken bridle. His beard is sparse on one cheek and full on the other, the result of an old burn rather than fashion. He has a long, pale scar beneath his left eye and a permanent crease across his nose from a horse's skull striking him. His clothes smell of lanolin, dust, and crushed mint. The unexpected thing about him is his delicacy: despite his scarred hands and blunt manner, he handles newborn foals with the care of a jeweler setting a gem.
“Low, clipped, and grainy, with long pauses before important answers. He pronounces names carefully, as if testing whether they fit the person.”

Distinguishing Features
A pale scar under the left eye and a burn-damaged patch of beard on the right cheek.
Two short braids tipped with copper beads from a broken bridle.
A left thumb bent permanently outward from an old fracture.
A habit of wearing one red horsehair cord around his wrist.
His shadow appears to flinch whenever a horse screams, an effect some consider magical and others blame on torchlight.
Voice
“A dry baritone that sounds like gravel in a wooden bucket, softened only when he speaks to animals or children.”
Clothing
A faded rust-red wool vest over a patched cream tunic, wide dark trousers tucked into cracked riding boots, a green woven sash holding his knife, and a rain-stiffened leather apron covered in hoof marks
Body Language
Keeps his shoulders angled toward the nearest animal, even during conversation. His fingers constantly test knots, buckles, and seams. When someone lies, he stops blinking and gently places one hand on the closest horse.
