Tempi

• Supporting
• First seen · Book 2 · Ch. 74

A lean young Adem man appearing around twenty years old with pale skin almost the color of cream, sandy hair, and pale grey eyes set in a studiously blank and impassive face. His slender build is sleek and graceful as a coursing hound with muscles that shift visibly under his skin, and his arms, chest, and back are crossed with dozens of thin pale scars from shallow old wounds. He is dressed in a tight bright red shirt and pants bound closely to his body with many soft leather straps at the chest, thigh, calf, and knee, giving him a distinctive and snugly fitted appearance as he moves with quiet animal precision while carrying a short unimpressive sword.
