Portho Small-Shadow Tealeaf
Paladin (Oath of Devotion)
Portho Small-Shadow Tealeaf
Species
Lightfoot Halfling
Appearance
Portho stands exactly three feet tall but carries himself with the rigid posture of a cathedral pillar. He wears heavy plate armor that has been polished to such a high sheen it reflects the grass and sky, acting as a strange form of camouflage. His most striking feature is his movement: despite the heavy metal, he steps with a silent, feline grace characteristic of his lineage. He carries a massive tower shield that is nearly as large as he is, embossed with the image of a steaming loaf of bread. Contradicting his martial readiness is a pair of delicate, gold-rimmed spectacles perched on his nose and a constant scent of aged balsamic and lavender that follows him.
“Portho speaks with a resonant, baritone voice that sounds like it should belong to a man twice his size. He uses elaborate culinary metaphors for everything, describing a well-executed ambush as a 'perfectly reduced glaze' or a stubborn enemy as 'day-old sourdough'.”

A solid gold prosthetic pinky finger on his right hand
A faint scar running through his left eyebrow
Calloused hands that look more like a baker's than a knight's
Voice
“Deep, smooth, and authoritative with a slight melodic lilt.”
Clothing
A tabard of deep forest green worn over his plate mail, embroidered with silver thread. When not in combat, he wears a high-collared silk doublet and a wide-brimmed hat with a single blue jay feather.
Body Language
Portho stands with feet planted wide. He has a habit of adjusting his spectacles when he is thinking or judging someone's character. He never fidgets, appearing as still as a statue until he moves with sudden, explosive speed.
