Description

Dieter Rascher cuts a formidable figure with his military build—broad-shouldered and solid, honed by relentless discipline. His fair skin bears the faint weathering of campaigns, framing a square-jawed face with piercing gray eyes and short-cropped dark hair tucked under a peaked cap. A subtle scar traces his cheek, adding to his stern demeanor, while he dons a fitted olive-green uniform adorned with arcane insignia, leather boots, and a cloak hinting at salamander embroidery. He carries himself with quiet authority, a staff or rune-etched weapon at hand, exuding the poised menace of one who wields both steel and spell.
