Valerius Thorne
Mercenary Commander
Valerius Thorne
Species
Human
Appearance
Valerius stands with the stiff, unwavering rigidity of a stone monument. His skin is the color of parched earth, crisscrossed with thin, white scars that resemble a topographical map of the Southern Wastes. He has a brutal, silver-grey buzz cut and a jawline that looks like it was squared off with a mason's chisel. Contradicting his martial aura, he wears a pair of delicate, gold-rimmed spectacles for reviewing ledgers, and he smells faintly of rosemary and expensive vellum rather than sweat and blood. He moves with a calculated economy of motion, never swinging his arms or shifting his weight more than is strictly necessary for the task at hand.
“Short, clipped, and rhythmic. He speaks as if every word has a cost in silver and he is trying to stay under budget.”

Deep, vertical furrow between his brows from constant scowling
Voice
“Deep, raspy, and devoid of inflection, like stones grinding together.”
Clothing
He wears high-quality, matte black plate armor stripped of any decorative flourish or heraldry. Over this is a dark charcoal surcoat made of heavy, waterproofed wool. He carries a thick leather satchel filled with ink pots, ledgers, and transit permits rather than trophies of war.
Body Language
Stands with hands clasped behind his back. Makes direct, unblinking eye contact. Never fidgets.
