Noble
Nalia Mzawari
Species
Half-Orc
Appearance
Nalia is a slim young half-orc woman with a soft, almost disarmingly human-like face, small ivory tusks, and a posture trained by years of formal instruction. She moves with careful economy, never quite wasting a gesture, but her hands betray her when she is angry, folding and unfolding the same strip of blue cloth at her wrist. Her skin has the muted green-brown tone of olive leaves after rain, with a fine texture that contrasts sharply with her broad, powerful brow. Her lower tusks are small enough to show only when she smiles, which makes her rare open laughter unexpectedly gentle. The contradictory impression she leaves is that of a delicate courtier who seems physically incapable of being pushed aside.
“Measured and articulate, with a low, clear cadence. Nalia speaks softly when she wants someone to lean closer and projects with startling force when making a public declaration.”

Distinguishing Features
Small, neatly filed ivory tusks visible when she smiles.
A blue sash wrapped twice around her left wrist, worn smooth from constant handling.

A bronze family clasp always worn turned inward.
Her gaze remains tender and attentive even while delivering a threat.
Voice
“A low contralto with a faint rasp at the edges, warm when offering help and unnervingly precise when issuing a formal warning”
Clothing
She wears a moss-green wool coat fitted at the shoulders but slightly too long in the sleeves, a cream linen blouse, dark russet trousers, and soft riding boots polished only at the toes. Every cuff bears small, neat repairs in contrasting thread. Her most cared-for possession is a narrow blue sash inherited from her mother, wrapped twice around her left wrist and worn smooth where her thumb worries it. A bronze house clasp sits at her collar, deliberately turned inward so its crest is hidden.
Body Language
Nalia keeps her shoulders relaxed and her chin level, as though perpetually posing for a family portrait. She turns her entire body toward whoever is speaking, giving them unwavering attention. When concealing anger, she presses one thumbnail into the blue cloth wrapped around her wrist. When she has made a decision, she stops fidgeting entirely.
