Goblin

Appearance

Heroditus moves with an oddly graceful gait for a goblin, his twisted frame draped in layered robes that hint at exotic origins. His face is a grotesque tapestry of warts, deeply set jaundiced eyes with a faint sickly green tint, and a hooked crooked nose that looks like it's been broken half a dozen times. His lips are thin and cracked, yet he speaks with refined articulation, betraying an intellect at odds with his ghastly visage. Unexpectedly, his hands are delicately manicured, nails pearly and trimmed to a fault, an eccentric contradiction to his otherwise repellent form. Whenever he smiles, a few yellowed, chipped teeth flash, revealing the slightest glint of an arcane tattoo curling under his skin just at the jawline.

Height4'1"
BuildLean but wiry, with twisted limbs and narrow shoulders
EyesPale, jaundiced green with thin black pupils
HairSparse strands like brittle white spider silk
SkinSickly olive-green with mottled patches of dark gray

Formal and measured, Heroditus chooses his words like a poet. His intonation is smooth but slightly nasal, with an undercurrent of pride that surfaces occasionally.”

Arcane tattoo faintly glowing beneath jaw

Jaundiced eyes that seem almost too intelligent

Voice

Thin but clear, with a slightly rasping nasal quality; measured cadence, rarely rushing; soft undertones of amusement or warning.

Clothing

Layered dark russet and faded violet robes embroidered with faint alchemical symbols, topped with a threadbare emerald-green scarf that once likely belonged to a noble house. His belt holds numerous little pouches and a finely carved bone pipe.

Body Language

Hands rarely still, often arranging items or tapping counters; head tilts inquisitively when listening; subtly bows or inclines his torso before speaking; eyes scan constantly but linger politely on interlocutor's face.
