Appearance
Ser Caldrin Vey is a tall, weathered man with the compact balance of someone who learned to stand on shaking ground. His skin is bronze-brown and finely creased around the mouth, while his iron-gray hair is cropped close at the sides and tied into a short cord at the nape. He moves with unsettling economy, never quite walking in a straight line, always placing each foot as if testing a floor for hidden weakness. Before he speaks, he draws a slow breath through his nose and lets it out in a soft, controlled hiss. His hands are broad and callused, yet he handles cups, maps, and fragile objects with the delicacy of a jeweler. The contradiction is immediately striking: he looks like a retired executioner, but his gentlest expression appears when discussing masonry, wounded animals, or frightened children.
“Measured and low, with clean pauses between clauses. He rarely raises his volume.”

Distinguishing Features
His first audible habit is a measured nasal inhale followed by a faint hiss, as though testing the air for dust.
The tips of his boots are polished smooth from years of pivoting rather than marching.
His left glove is lined with waxed thread and small copper studs, allowing him to feel tremors through stone and wood.
He carries a narrow strip of blue tile from each city whose walls he saved.
When startled, he briefly speaks in the clipped cadence of battlefield commands before correcting himself.
Voice
“A low, dry baritone with a faint rasp, like a whetstone drawn across steel. His words are never hurried. His breathing becomes audible when he is frightened, though he tries to disguise it by turning the sound into a deliberate sigh.”
Clothing
A faded blue military coat reinforced with overlapping leather strips, a sleeveless ash-gray gambeson, dark wool trousers, soft-soled riding boots, and a red mason’s sash worn beneath the belt. His gloves are different: one is armored, the other is thin linen for feeling vibrations through stone.
Body Language
Caldrin keeps his shoulders relaxed and his weight slightly forward, as if prepared to catch a falling object. When attentive, he turns his whole torso instead of merely his head. When angry, he becomes unnaturally still, and the fingers of his sword hand open and close once before he speaks.
