Penn, a tall and muscular human sergeant, is introduced carrying an enormous steel H-beam as if it were ordinary equipment. Seeing Carl, he drops it, embraces him with crushing affection, kisses his cheek, and lets his tears show. Then he turns that feeling into a rallying cry, pumping his fist as he chants “Hup, hup, hup.” He eventually hoists the massive beam again and heads back toward the palisade construction, combining tenderness with unmistakable physical might.
Description
Penn is a tall, muscular man whose build suits the immense steel H-beam he carries across one shoulder. The text does not specify his skin tone, hair, eye color, facial features, or clothing, so those details remain open. His expression is notably unguarded and emotional, with tears in his eyes and a warmth that softens his imposing strength. The long, heavy metallic beam is his defining visual feature.
