Species
Warforged
Appearance
Sarn is a lean warforged built from dark ironwood, green metal, and overlapping plates polished smooth by years of weather. A large black cosmic crystal is set into the center of his chest, not mounted like a jewel but grown through the surrounding metal as if his body formed around it. Tiny points of violet light drift inside the crystal whenever he moves. His joints make almost no sound, yet his hand wraps whisper against the air before each strike. He stands perfectly still when listening, with his head tilted toward the nearest ceiling, window, or patch of sky rather than toward the speaker. His face is a simple bronze mask with a narrow mouth and two calm green lenses. The unexpected detail is a small patch of soft blue wool sewn into the inside of his left forearm, carefully hidden from casual view.
“His voice is a low, dry baritone with a faint resonant hum, like words spoken inside a stone stairwell. Before answering, he draws in a careful breath that clicks softly through his throat vents.”

Distinguishing Features
A large black cosmic crystal fills the center of his chest and contains drifting violet points of light.
Green-metal hand wraps remain warm even in snow and leave faint metallic dust on whatever they strike.
His gaze continually tracks the highest point in a room instead of meeting faces.
Tiny bronze bells hang from his coat but ring only when he is emotionally overwhelmed.
A hidden patch of blue wool is sewn inside his left forearm from Mother Tsaia's winter shawl.
Voice
“Measured and resonant, with a quiet metallic undertone and long pauses that make even simple answers feel deliberate”
Clothing
A sleeveless charcoal monk's coat hangs from his shoulders in layered panels. It is patched with faded blue thread and weighted at the hem with tiny bronze bells that almost never ring. His green-metal hand wraps are etched with geometric patterns resembling mountain passes and constellations. He wears a broad gray sash containing repair wire, prayer beads, and folded scraps of handwritten poetry.
Body Language
Sarn's posture is upright and economical, with every movement seeming premeditated. He turns his entire torso toward people rather than merely moving his head. When troubled, he places one wrapped fist over the crystal in his chest and lowers his chin. When amused, he does not smile, but his eye lenses brighten and his fingers tap a quiet rhythm against his opposite wrist.
