Elder Anses is a crippled elder of Heaven’s Glory, marked by a mangled right arm and three-claw scars across his upper arm. Despite the terrible damage to his forearm, his hand remains in working condition. He appears briefly as a figure whose visible injuries speak more loudly than any account of his past; no further personal history or relationships are established.
Description
Elder Anses is a middle-aged man with a short beard mixed with gray and black. His right forearm is badly mangled, with large chunks of flesh missing and tendons and bone exposed, while his hand remains intact and functional. Three claw-like scars shred the upper arm. His clothing, height, build, eyes, and other facial features are not described; the injury gives him a stark, hard-to-forget presence.
