Bard
Merrin Corvayne
Species
Human
Appearance
He moves like someone used to parades and patrols: a steady cadence in his steps, shoulders always squared, eyes scanning like a drumroll. His skin bears a lattice of faint white scars along his left forearm from a childhood accident with a forge. He keeps a trimmed beard dyed in thin streaks of silver-blue beneath his jawline that catches moonlight in a way that seems to echo the bright thread woven into his guard sash. When relaxed he fiddles unconsciously with a small carved wooden whistle tucked into his collar; when alert he tucks it away and his hands go to his rapier more often than his lute. Contradiction: his smile is warm and theatrical while his gaze is strictly professional.
“Cadenced and expressive when telling stories; clipped and exact when giving orders. Uses theatrical metaphors even in the barracks.”

“Warm baritone with practiced cadence; can shift to a theatrical alto for effect”
Clothing
A weathered guard's coat dyed navy, tailored to allow theatrical movement, with a woven crimson sash embroidered with tiny silver notes. Underneath a faded traveler's vest, studded leather pauldrons, and a stage-scarf he uses to blindfold trainees in drills.
Body Language
Measured, with small, rhythmic gestures. Fingers habitually tap out counts. When lying he keeps his hands very still and hums under his breath.
