Krake
Species
Half-Orc
Appearance
Krake is a broad, heavy-shouldered half-orc whose movements are unexpectedly quiet. He walks with the measured care of someone crossing a sleeping room, placing each boot as if the floor might complain. His lower canines are filed flat, not for intimidation but because a childhood injury made them catch on his lip. A thin white scar divides his left eyebrow, while a second scar puckers the skin beneath his jaw. His hands are enormous and callused, yet he handles delicate objects with almost absurd gentleness. People remember the contrast most: a man built like a siege ram who folds his cloak around injured birds and speaks to frightened children at eye level.
“His voice is low, dry, and carefully measured, with a rough dockside cadence beneath formal guard etiquette. He pauses before answering emotional questions, as if checking whether the truth would endanger anyone.”

Distinguishing Features
A pale scar splitting the left eyebrow and continuing into the hairline
Flattened lower canines caused by an old childhood injury
A copper pin shaped like a closed eye, worn on every uniform
A left shoulder that rises slightly higher than the right when he is tired
A habit of polishing the same small section of his shield until it shines like dark water
Voice
“A deep baritone with a restrained rasp, like a heavy door opening slowly”
Clothing
Polished chain mail beneath a dark blue guard's surcoat, a high-collared wool mantle fastened with a plain copper pin, reinforced riding trousers, and soft-soled boots. His formal gloves are immaculate, but the fingertips are stained with oil and blacksmith's soot.
Body Language
Krake keeps his shield angled toward others even when relaxed, as if protection is his natural resting posture. He bends slightly when speaking to smaller people, but straightens to his full height when addressed by a superior. His eyes rarely linger on faces. They track exits, hands, and the space between people. When troubled, he rubs the flattened edge of one canine with his thumb.
