Adrius au Augustus
MajorA slim young Gold of middling height possesses a very slim, wiry build with no excess flesh and clipped blond hair. His fair skin often drains to a deathly pale under stress or shock, while his eyes carry an unsettling, inhuman intensity that clashes with his pleasant, sane smile and chattering teeth in moments of extreme pain or laughter. A cauterized stump replaces his right hand, the result of self-amputation, serving as a permanent emblem of his feral resolve and complete insanity; he moves with a strange blend of slumped meekness and iron endurance across snow and captivity alike.

Physical Description
A slim young Gold of middling height possesses a very slim, wiry build with no excess flesh and clipped blond hair. His fair skin often drains to a deathly pale under stress or shock, while his eyes carry an unsettling, inhuman intensity that clashes with his pleasant, sane smile and chattering teeth in moments of extreme pain or laughter. A cauterized stump replaces his right hand, the result of self-amputation, serving as a permanent emblem of his feral resolve and complete insanity; he moves with a strange blend of slumped meekness and iron endurance across snow and captivity alike. A short, slight young man with a plain face that wrinkles easily in distaste or splits into a toothy grin moves with frail, boyish energy. His desert sand hair is slicked back from his forehead, and his dirty gold eyes like smooth worn coins hold an ancient cast that contrasts his childish curiosity and youthful features. Thin and small in stature with a frail build, he bears the stump of his missing right hand as a deliberate badge of honor, his lone hand moving with quick, confident precision whether twirling a stylus or treating wounds, his fair skin and unadorned presence making him seem an oddity among the godlike Golds of his world. A pale, slender young man with a deceptively childish face and sandy hair that is combed and parted on the side. His expression is often one of calm amusement or boredom as he twirls a silver stylus in his single hand, the opposite arm ending in a stump he uses without hesitation. He wears imposing gold armor roaring with lion emblems and detailed human ribs implanted along the torso, paired with black boots and a holstered pistol, creating an elegant yet macabre and menacing portrait of a cunning ruler.
