Valerius stands with an imposing, athletic grace, his physique honed not by the forge but by the constant physical strain of containing raw elemental energy. His most striking feature is his shock of snow-white hair that seems to possess a life of its own, floating slightly as if caught in a perpetual updraft. His skin is a deep bronze, mapped with faint, branching silver scars known as Lichtenberg figures that glow with a soft sapphire light when he draws upon his power. His eyes are a piercing, crystalline blue, though they turn entirely white and spark with arcs of electricity when he is agitated. Despite his immense power, he carries a heavy iron rod to ground himself, and he moves with a twitchy, high-tension energy, like a predator ready to spring.
