Description
A tall young man about Lindon’s height, with brown hair that hangs into his eyes and a dark gaze. He wears a white-and-gold training uniform, with a heavy iron badge against his chest; his red sash is absent in the injured appearance. In chapter 13, blood runs down his scalp and the uniform is torn.
