An old Obsidian guard, past fifty, he is encountered as a battered and heavily tattooed figure in an ill-fitting uniform. His body bears signs of brutal custom and hardship, from the half-completed scalping to the blue runes inked along his legs. Though he appears as a minor presence in the book, his silent, unsettling appearance makes the violence of his world visible at a glance.

Description

He is a thin man past fifty, with a deeply receding hairline and a filthy beard. Tattoo ink covers his face, including spirit eyes drawn on his eyelids; a half-completed scalping leaves the front of his head looking indented. His knotted hands bear embedded black crescents, and runic blue tattoos are visible on his legs beneath trousers that end at mid-calf. An ill-fitting guard uniform hangs awkwardly on him, intensifying his worn, unsettling appearance.
