Ketzak Murgat
Species
Dwarf
Appearance
A broad, compact dwarf with a soldier's economical movements and a face weathered into permanent concentration. Her skin is dark umber with pale mineral flecks embedded along one cheek from years spent crawling through blasted workshops. Her left eyebrow is shaved into three blunt bars, each marking a campaign she refuses to discuss. A black braid hangs to her belt, threaded with copper wire and tiny blue glass beads taken from dismantled automatons. She walks with a slight forward lean, as though bracing against an invisible mountain wind, yet her hands are astonishingly delicate when examining clockwork. The unexpected contradiction is her immaculate white gloves, which she wears even in soot-choked tunnels and changes whenever they become stained.
“Low, measured, and spare. Ketzak enunciates every consonant, with hard stops and clipped syllables that become almost musical when she speaks Dwarvish.”

Distinguishing Features
Three blunt bars shaved into her left eyebrow.
Pale mineral flecks permanently embedded in the skin of her left cheek.
Copper wire threaded through her black braid.
A missing tip on her right little finger, replaced by a simple brass cap.
Immaculate white gloves that are changed whenever they become stained.
A tiny blue glass bead sewn inside her collar, taken from the first automaton she ever dismantled.
Voice
“A low contralto with a dry rasp, like a file drawn across iron. Her commands are quiet enough that people must lean in to hear them, which makes them feel more urgent. When speaking to a frightened person, she softens every word without becoming warm.”
Clothing
A soot-gray reserve coat reinforced with layered leather at the ribs, a blue-gray scarf tied in a regulation knot, polished iron shoulder plates, reinforced trousers, and high tunnel boots. Her belt carries signal flags, chalk, wire, medical tools, and three carefully labeled pouches of workshop debris.
Body Language
Keeps her shoulders square and her chin slightly lowered, never quite relaxing her knees. When lying, she becomes unusually still and folds her gloved hands over her baton. When genuinely moved, she removes one glove and touches a metal surface as if grounding herself.
