Kmakl, Fen’s aging husband and the Thaylen prince consort, brings a sailor’s perspective to the coalition’s deliberations. He imagines fleets of airships and keeps a close eye on naval reports, while maintaining a genial presence beside Fen. His role is quietly practical: listening, thinking ahead, and lending his experience to the work before them.

Description

Kmakl is an elderly man with drooping eyebrows and long mustaches that give his face a distinctive, weathered character. His bearing suggests a seasoned sailor, tempered by the quiet dignity of a prince consort. He appears in practical, refined attire suited to naval reports and formal gatherings; his build, coloring, and eye color are not specified.
