Physical Description
Timony cu Podginus is a minute, middle-aged man, scarcely reaching the height of those around him, with bouncy copper curls that frame his sharp, pinched face. His skin carries the warm undertone typical of his Copper caste, and his small, manicured hands are impeccably groomed, nails polished to a gleam. He wobbles unsteadily on substandard gravBoots, clad in ornate robes embroidered with metallic threads that accentuate his status. His eyes dart with sly calculation, and his presence is one of fussy agitation, like a coiled mechanism ready to unwind. A middle-aged Copper man, corpulent and fatter than most, with thinning hair plastered thinly across his scalp. He sweats profusely, his flushed skin perpetually glistening, especially around his jowly face and thick neck. His small, shrewd eyes peer out from puffy features, and his pudgy hands are burdened with heavy gold rings on nearly every finger. Dressed in lavish, embroidered robes befitting his Color, he carries an unctuous presence, slouched and uneasy in his own excess.
