Kaelen possesses a rhythmic grace that suggests he is always counting a beat in his head. His dark brown hair is cropped close to avoid the grime of the taproom, and his beard is kept short and sharp, framing a jawline that has grown leaner with age. He wears a heavy, grease-stained leather apron over a surprisingly fine linen shirt. The most contradictory element of his appearance is his left hand: while his right is calloused and stained by ale, his left is kept pristine, often hidden in a silk glove while he polishes a single, delicate crystal glass that he never actually serves to customers.
