Anecdotes preserve Ovidius as Lysander’s great-grandfather, an elderly Gold Sovereign whose nerve became a family legend. At a birthday gala, a Venusian manticore tore a chunk from his cheek; Ovidius did not flinch, bit the creature back, and ordered champagne. The story leaves him less a distant ancestor than a vivid emblem of aristocratic defiance.
Description
Ovidius is an elderly man with an athletic build and a face marked by a conspicuous chunk missing from one cheek, the result of a manticore’s bite. His age lends his features a weathered gravity, while the injury gives his otherwise composed presence a startling edge. No further details of his hair, eyes, or clothing are specified.
