Species
Human
Appearance
Julian is a study in monochromatic exhaustion. His skin is the color of bleached parchment, stretched thin over a skull-like face. He moves with a jerky, bird-like gait, and his fingers are permanently stained with soot from guttering candles. Despite his haggard state, he keeps his silver hair meticulously combed, creating a jarring contrast between his orderly grooming and his chaotic, terrified spirit. He smells faintly of metallic rot and bitter incense.
“Julian speaks with a rapid-fire, breathless delivery that stalls whenever he is nervous. He frequently interrupts others to change the subject away from the church architecture or local legends.”

“A thin, reedy tenor that cracks into a whisper when he is forced to lie or speak of the dead.”

Body Language
Julian keeps his shoulders hunched and his head tilted, as if constantly listening for a sound from beneath the floorboards.
