Description

His eyes glow vivid red during moments of power, and four spikes are embedded between his ribs beneath the clothing. A rugged human man with a thick neck, stubble on his chin, and a muscular frame that can swell to an imposing, exaggerated bulk. He wears a fitted suit and jacket with wooden buttons along the arms and sides, allowing the garments to open and accommodate his expanded body. His eyes may shine vivid red under Trell's influence; his hair and complexion are not established by the available descriptions.
