Seshan Merrig
Species
Half-elf
Appearance
Seshan is a lean half-elf man with copper-brown skin, narrow shoulders, and the poised stillness of someone listening for a sound beneath the world. His black hair is worn in a long, uneven braid threaded with pale bits of river shell. One side of his face is smooth and youthful, while the other bears a web of fine silver scars that shimmer faintly whenever he casts a spell. He moves with careful, almost dancer-like precision, yet his hands are permanently stained with ink and lamp soot. At first glance he seems fragile. Then he turns his head, and the room feels as though it has become much smaller.
“His voice is soft, breathy, and precise, with a faint sibilant lilt. He speaks as though every sentence is being written down somewhere.”

Distinguishing Features
Silver spell-scars cover the left side of his face and glow faintly when he lies.
His left canine tooth is capped with a tiny piece of blue glass.
He carries a wax-sealed lock of red hair that he refuses to explain.
His shadow occasionally points in a different direction from the light.
Despite his scholarly reputation, he has the rough, weathered hands of a caravan laborer.
Voice
“A low, silken murmur with a dry edge, like wind passing through reeds. His laugh is brief and startled, as though it escaped without permission.”
Clothing
A moss-green wool coat lined with faded red silk, a high-collared linen shirt, soft leather boots, fingerless gloves, and a broad sash containing chalk, folded maps, and tiny labeled bones. His clothing is meticulously mended but never fully clean.
Body Language
Seshan tilts his head when listening, as if the speaker is reciting a difficult melody. His fingers constantly trace invisible diagrams against his sleeves. When frightened, he becomes unnaturally polite. When enraged, he stops moving altogether.
