Species
Wood Elf
Appearance
Mavren Köszrik is lean to the point of seeming drawn in charcoal, all elegant wrists, narrow hips, long calves, and tightly controlled strength. His bronze-brown skin has a satin sheen that catches torchlight like polished wood, while faint old lash marks cross his left shoulder in pale, uneven lines. His face is beautiful in an unsettlingly practical way, with a crooked nose, a broad lower lip, and one slightly lower eyelid that gives him a permanently skeptical expression. He moves with liquid precision, never wasting a step, yet he often ruins the effect by scratching his ankle or yawning in the middle of a dramatic pose. The contradiction is memorable: he looks like a shrine statue brought to life, but carries himself like a tired dockworker who has seen too much nonsense.
“His voice is low, husky, and carefully modulated, with rounded vowels and clipped consonants that become more pronounced when he is angry. He speaks like someone trained to make every syllable feel intimate, but his most dangerous remarks are delivered in a flat, ordinary tone.”

Distinguishing Features
A thin white scar runs from the corner of his mouth to his jaw.
His silver anklets are mismatched, one hammered with river-wave patterns and one engraved with tiny names.
He wears two small silver nipple rings, each set with a dark green sliver of malachite.
His left ear is notched from a punishment duel staged by the House of Nine Curtains.
He can identify most taverns and brothels by the quality of their floorboards.
Voice
“A velvet-low contralto with a dry rasp beneath it, intimate enough to sound like a secret even when he is addressing a crowded room.”
Clothing
He wears layered wine-red silk trousers beneath a split dancer's coat, a sleeveless black vest, and a long sash embroidered with tiny brass bells. His clothing changes according to the venue, sometimes becoming modest and formal, sometimes daringly open, but his silver anklets and small silver nipple rings are never removed.
Body Language
He keeps his weight on the balls of his feet and turns his torso before his head, as if every conversation might become a dance or an escape. His hands are constantly occupied with rings, ribbons, or the edges of his sleeves. When angry, he becomes perfectly still.
