Appearance

Medium-height, around five-foot nine, but as well built as most military men. Thick, wiry muscles as tough as car tyres, built up from relentless and untiring hard labour. Dull, grey eyes, like burned paper, and smoky-black hair. Ruddy skin with a grey-ish tinge, mainly due to being covered with a fine layer of ash: washing removes this for about a quarter of an hour, before it naturally reforms. His clothing also often smells of smoke. Greying teeth and thin lips over a fairly large, roman nose. One of his eyebrows is slightly higher than the other, and his forehead is more wrinkled than his age would suggest. He grows a beard, but can't seem to manage a moustache.
