Dockson
SupportingA shorter than average man of moderately stocky build with stout arms leans comfortably against stone or sits neatly at a desk, his squarish face kept trim by a short half-beard maintained for twenty years. Black hair rests beneath a nondescript brown hooded cloak while fair skin and an awake expression complete his middle-aged look, all wrapped in a nobleman's suit of colored vest, dark coat, trousers, and thin cloak that he wears with such natural comfort it seems an extension of his being in the ash-covered streets of Luthadel.

Physical Description
A shorter than average man of moderately stocky build with stout arms leans comfortably against stone or sits neatly at a desk, his squarish face kept trim by a short half-beard maintained for twenty years. Black hair rests beneath a nondescript brown hooded cloak while fair skin and an awake expression complete his middle-aged look, all wrapped in a nobleman's suit of colored vest, dark coat, trousers, and thin cloak that he wears with such natural comfort it seems an extension of his being in the ash-covered streets of Luthadel. A stocky man without being fat, Dockson has short dark hair and a customary half beard that frames his thoughtful face. He possesses the dependable, practical build of an organized rebel leader who spends long hours over ledgers and plans, with fair skin showing little sign of frontline labor and a steady, intelligent gaze suited to his role coordinating operations in the shadowed streets and noble houses of Luthadel. Middle-aged with a solid, broad-shouldered build, his face features a stern jaw and thoughtful eyes under short-cropped dark hair graying at the temples. Clad in practical vests and trousers suited to a planner's life, faint lines of experience crease his brow. He carries a no-nonsense presence, movements efficient and assured.
