Description
A tall, powerfully muscled Illyrian male with tan skin, dark hair in short waves, hazel eyes, and a classically beautiful face with elegant planes. His broad, mighty wings have sharp talons and faint scars; his hands are brutally burn-scarred, with additional faint scars on his neck. He is commonly clad in dark, plated leather fighting armor, with blue Siphons set on the backs of his hands and blades at his side; shadows often wreath him.
