Appearance
Kategi is a broad-shouldered human man with weather-darkened skin, a square jaw, and tightly cropped black hair that has begun to silver at the temples. His movements are economical and slightly lopsided, as if every step is measured around an old invisible pack. He wears a patched ochre coat over practical mail, but the coat has been carefully tailored at the cuffs with bright red thread, a fussy touch that clashes with his mud-stained boots and battered gear. His hands are heavily callused, yet his nails are kept meticulously clean. He leaves the impression of a tired caravan guard who could become terrifying without ever raising his voice. The unexpected detail is his soft, almost scholarly smile, which appears whenever someone mentions maps, old songs, or bad cooking.
“Measured and low, with clipped consonants and a warm rhythm that becomes almost musical when he tells old road stories. He rarely raises his voice.”

Distinguishing Features
Bright red stitching at both coat cuffs, repaired so often that the fabric is more thread than cloth.
A small brass whistle shaped like a fish, worn on a cord beneath his armor.
A habit of tilting his head toward distant sounds before anyone else notices them.
A faint smell of cedar oil and river mud clinging to his clothes.
A calm, scholarly smile that appears at inappropriate moments during danger.
Voice
“A low, dry baritone with a patient cadence, like stones clicking together in a river current.”
Clothing
A patched ochre traveling coat with red hand-stitching at the cuffs, a quilted gray gambeson, battered half-plate, wrapped trousers, and mud-dark boots. A narrow green sash holds small tools, chalk, and folded route notes.
Body Language
He stands with his weight slightly forward, like a man prepared to catch someone falling. When lying, he folds his hands behind his back. When angry, he stops moving entirely except for the slow adjustment of his red-threaded cuffs.
