Withicab was a German prince of royal lineage whose weak and sickly constitution belied a daring and formidable spirit. Though physically frail, he represented the proud independence of his people until his life was cut short by a domestic assassin instigated by Roman interests.

Description

Withicab possesses a weak and sickly constitution that marks his entire appearance. His frame is thin and delicate, with pale skin and fragile features that speak to his physical vulnerability. Despite his youth as a young adult male, his bearing carries the quiet dignity of royal German lineage, though his body seems ill-suited to the demands of his position.
