Father Silas Vane
The Living Heart (High Priest)
Father Silas Vane
Species
Celestial-Bound Human
Appearance
Silas has the comforting presence of a sun-warmed blanket. He is wrapped in thick, unbleached wool robes that smell faintly of frankincense and rain. His movements are deliberate and heavy, as if he carries a physical weight within his chest. The most striking thing about him is his skin, which looks like aged parchment but feels as warm as a fresh loaf of bread. Contradicting his kindly grandpa aesthetic, Silas never blinks; his eyes remain wide and fixed, as if he is constantly witnessing something far away.
“Soft and rhythmic, often timed to the beat of a heart. He speaks in platitudes and soothing metaphors, rarely giving a direct answer.”

A heavy, brass key that hangs from a chain around his neck but fits no known lock
Voice
“A rich baritone that feels like it is vibrating in the listener's own chest.”
Clothing
Plain, cream-colored monastic robes tied with a simple hempen rope. Beneath the robes, he wears a heavy iron pectoral etched with containment runes.
Body Language
Expansive and welcoming but subtly blocking doorways or exits. He often touches people on the shoulder to 'ground' them, but it is actually a check for their energy levels.
