Lieutenant Jaren Iron-Sight
Weapons Officer
Lieutenant Jaren Iron-Sight
Species
Human
Appearance
Jaren is a narrow-faced young man with weather-burned skin, restless shoulders, and the wiry strength of someone who climbs ladders more often than he sleeps. His movements are abrupt and economical, as though every gesture has been drilled into him by a stern instructor. Fine black grit is permanently embedded in the creases of his hands, and his left cheek bears a pale scar shaped like a sighting notch. His uniform is immaculate from a distance, but close inspection reveals salt stains, frayed cuffs, and tiny brass filings caught in the seams. The unexpected contradiction is his smile, which is soft, shy, and almost boyish when he thinks no one is watching, making his usual hard-eyed command presence seem borrowed rather than natural.
“Clipped, precise, and heavily inflected with military cadence. Jaren speaks quickly during danger and painfully slowly when trying to appear patient.”

Distinguishing Features
A pale cheek scar shaped like a ballista sighting notch
A left eye fitted with a brass monocular lens that clicks into place over the iris
Black grit permanently embedded beneath his fingernails
A red signal sash patched from the uniform of his dead father
A faint smell of lamp oil, cold metal, and mountain dust
Voice
“A young baritone made harsh by cold air and shouted orders, with a surprisingly gentle undertone that emerges when he is tired or ashamed.”
Clothing
A charcoal-gray officer's coat reinforced with leather shoulder plates, a red signal sash, brass buckles blackened by smoke, climbing harness, fingerless gloves, and a dented half-cape bearing the Iron-Gorge Watch insignia
Body Language
Jaren stands with his feet braced as if the floor might tilt. His chin is usually raised toward distant sounds, and his right thumb repeatedly taps the brass guard of his sabre. When challenged by a superior, he becomes rigid. When challenged by someone he respects, he leans forward intensely and forgets to blink.
