Valerius Thorne
Ranger of the Veiled Path
Valerius Thorne
Species
Half-Elf
Appearance
Valerius stands with a perpetual slouch that suggests he is always trying to read a map under poor lighting. His skin is a pale, sickly olive, colored by years spent in limestone caves rather than sunlight. He moves with a jittery, feline grace, often stepping over invisible obstacles. His most jarring feature is his left hand, which is not flesh but a complex weave of living, emerald-green ivy that pulses with a faint internal light. This vine-hand constantly adjusts itself, curling around his gear like a restless serpent. He smells faintly of damp peat and ozone, a scent that lingers in a room long after he has departed.
“His voice is a low rasp, like dry leaves skittering across stone. He speaks in geographical metaphors and rarely makes eye contact, instead focusing on the corners of the room or the horizon.”

Distinguishing Features
A left hand made entirely of sentient green ivy
Faintly glowing emerald irises
A shifting tattoo of a mountain range on his neck that moves as he breathes
Scar tissue on his chin shaped like a compass rose
Voice
“Whispery, melodic but brittle.”
Clothing
He wears a tattered duster made of displacer beast hide that seems to blur at the edges when he moves. Underneath is a suit of dark-stained studded leather reinforced with bits of chitin. His boots are mismatched; one is a heavy explorer's boot, the other a light elven slipper, which he claims allows him to feel the vibration of the earth more clearly.
Body Language
He is constantly adjusting the straps of his pack and checking his compass. He never sits with his back to an entrance.
