Arief, a Semeru dwarf and war leader, stands among the allies whose distinctive traditions and fighting styles shape the struggle. His extravagant armor and broad sickle make him a memorable presence, while his compact, practical bearing keeps the spectacle from feeling like mere display. The supplied account offers little detail about his personal history beyond his role and appearance.
Description
Arief is a squat, wide-built Semeru dwarf around Carl's age, with darker-complexioned skin, a round face, a flat nose, and thick black hair. A long, thin mustache frames his upper lip; he has no beard. His parade armor is samurai-inspired, with a wide, open-chested metallic vest and flared shoulders, chainmail on his legs, and loose red and yellow strips of fabric that move around him. A rounded skullcap helmet bearing multiple feathers and a metallic fern ornament completes the striking ensemble, and he carries a wide sickle. The overall impression is both ceremonial and martial, heightened by the armor's glowing enchantments.
