A hulking man who moves with odd lightness. His skin is mottled with pale scars that look like old rope burns, and a wide crescent-shaped scar runs from the left temple down to his jaw. He shaves his head but leaves a narrow strip of coarse black hair braided into a single tail that he twists when thinking. He favors a sleeveless leather jerkin patched with fur and a rusted iron gorget hung loose around his neck. His right forearm is wrapped in faded red cloth with names stitched into it in rough white thread. Unexpectedly tidy nails and a faint, careful braid of bright blue ribbon threaded through the hair at the nape of his neck give him an uneasy, deliberate elegance.
