Turqa appears as a veteran guard captain bearing the distinctive marks of Y'ghatan service, his lean face and scarred hands telling the story of a soldier who has endured fire and survived. His presence is marked by the quiet competence of someone who has earned his rank through experience rather than privilege.

Description

Turqa has a lean face marked by a hatched scar symbolizing his Y'ghatan veteran status, with pitted incendiary scars visible on the backs of his hands. His hard eyes and captain's insignia on his private guard armor convey the weathered presence of a disciplined soldier.
