Xylanthee possesses the typical obsidian skin of her kind, though it is perpetually dusted with vibrant, iridescent fungal spores that shimmer like glitter in low light. Her silver-white hair is matted into thick, practical braids held together by living vines and small, glowing mushrooms. She moves with a strange, rhythmic sway that mimics the growth of a plant reaching for the sun, and she often carries the heavy, humid scent of rain-soaked earth. Contrasting her delicate drow features is a pair of heavy, mud-caked boots and calloused, dirt-stained hands that look more suited to a dwarf than an elven noble.
