    Before Baxter

    Your first impression of the man standing before you is that he is young. Too young.
    Too young to be there. Too young to carry the few weapons he has. Too young to be bear those scars. Too young to look that haggard.
    Many a man would refer to him as "boy", if not for the haunted cast to his eyes.

    Second impressions reveal that there is elven blood in his lineage, revealed by the slight tilt and almond shape of his eyes, as well as an understated tip to his ears.
    Whatever human parent he had must have been a burly one, however, given the youngster's height and frame.

    A height and frame he does not fully utilize. He walks with stooped shoulders and with his eyes often on the ground before him, like a dog expecting his next beating to come at any time. He doesn't smile easily, or wide. You're not sure you've heard him laugh yet. He speaks clearly when spoken to, but often avoids speaking at all in public.
    Despite that, he does seem to possess a certain amount of grace. A light, swift step to his feet, equally agile and strong. His clothes aren't exactly rags, repaired when necessary and kept clean, but it is obvious he never spent an hour thinking of what they look like.

    When alone, or observed from a distance, he can be seen constantly moving on the spot, as if restless. Shifting his weight from foot to foot, then squatting lightly, then lifting one foot off the ground and balancing. His hands go through motions as well, the shapes his fingers create seeming as though he is about to do shadow puppets in front of a fire, or moving as though he is constantly imagining some fight.

    Height: 6'5/1.96m

    Skin Tone: Pale. Quite permanently. That or lobster red.

    Skin Texture: His skin tells a story of a hard life. Like most in a martial profession, he bears a number of scars across his body. Some less likely to be seen. Whippings. Brandings. Chafing chains. Others are plainly visible. Scarred knuckles. A split eyebrow. A slightly deformed ear. The cleft in his chin, on the other hand, was not put there by an axe or other weapon, but the deft hands and skill of Baxter.

    Eyes: His eyes, once hazel, have also been magically altered by Baxter, in an attempt to throw of his Zhent pursuers. They now are a bright green.

    Hair: His hair, once mouse brown, has likewise been changed by Baxter, taking on a reddish tint.
