Kater Balley
Artificer (Battle Smith) 5
Kater Balley
Species
Human
Appearance
Kater stands with a calm, deliberate grace, her movements precise as if measured in the beat of a forge's hammer. Her skin bears the faint, mottled sheen of metal dust—like pewter dust clinging in patches on her forearms, contrasting with smooth olive tones. Her dark, iron-gray hair is cropped short in rebellious curls, streaked unexpectedly with shimmering silver strands that flicker unnaturally in candlelight, a subtle sign of her spectral inhabitant. Her eyes glow faintly blue when she’s deep in thought or under stress — a ghostly shimmer betraying the dragon inside. She often wears a heavy leather apron, scarred and patched from years of toil, over practical, soot-stained clothes. Despite her grounded smithy exterior, an ethereal light sometimes seems to ripple beneath her skin, an uncanny contradiction to her earthy presence.
“Measured and calm, with an undercurrent of steely resolve; her voice sometimes shifts to a deeper, echoing timbre when influenced by the dragon spirit..”
