Daz Nara
Elemental, Path of the Bastion
Daz Nara
Species
Leonin fire-affinity elemental
Appearance
Daz is a broad-shouldered leonine man with the dense, weathered build of someone who has spent half his life bracing against sea wind. His tawny fur is marked by blackened streaks around the muzzle, throat, and forearms, as though smoke has soaked permanently into it. When his temper rises, faint orange light glows between individual hairs along his mane, and sparks gather in his whiskers. He moves with deliberate weight while standing guard, but in battle he becomes startlingly quick, pivoting like a wildfire changing direction. His eyes are molten amber, yet his expression is usually tired and almost gentle. The contradiction is unsettling: he looks like a furnace given flesh, but carries himself like a grieving shepherd.
“His speech is spare and deliberate, with a coastal leonine cadence that places weight on the final word of each sentence. When angry, he becomes quieter and more precise.”

Distinguishing Features
A mane that smolders at the tips when he is angry
A pale scar across his nose where a Steel Keeper's hooked hammer struck him
One ivory canine capped with brass after it cracked during the Red Stair Collapse
A soot-black pawprint permanently burned into the center of his left palm
A faint smell of rain striking hot stone that follows him even near the sea
Voice
“A deep, rough baritone with a faint crackle beneath it, as though every word has passed through warm coals. His laugh is surprisingly soft and brief.”
Clothing
Charcoal brigandine beneath a faded red officer's coat, reinforced leather boots, a brass watch badge, heat-darkened gauntlets, and a blue wool sash inherited from his mother
Body Language
Daz stands with his feet planted wide and his shoulders angled toward the nearest exit. His tail lashes only when he is trying not to shout. He touches two fingers to his sternum before making a promise, and when listening to grief he lowers his head until his mane nearly hides his face.
