Tall and powerfully built for one of his kind, this human man has a compelling
presence. The tone of his skin is fair, but its texture is so worn and
leathery that few would use that word to describe him. His large-boned frame
is considerably muscled as only someone who engages in frequent and gruelling
physical labor can be. His body is like a formidable, craggy tool hewn from
a mountain, as if it had struggled and contested with earth and stone so very
long that anything in it unlike them had been gradually worn away. The man's
hair is cut short and neatly and is a dark brown in hue. No beard or even
stubble adorns his smooth face; indeed, his grooming and appearance in general
might be called clean cut, but everything about this man indicates a lack of
hesitation to get his hands dirty. His eyes are a steely gray in color, and
his gaze conveys a vague sense of both resolution and hunger.
Daevryn, a male human, is in perfect health.

A Quiet Study
The scent of rich vellum and oiled leathers permeates this room. A huge
mahogany desk takes up most of the room. Seated before it is an overstuffed
black leather chair. Upon the desk seems to mostly be journals, maps, and
other documentation of ancient artifacts. The walls of this study are lined
with leather bound books and journals, and one entire wall seems to be
devoted to various layers of maps. The floor is covered with a deep red,
exceptionally plush carpet. Red curtains lined and trimmed with golden
velvet hang over the windows. Wrought iron sconces flickering with magical
flames of light are well-placed throughout the room. Everything in here
seems rare, unique and costly.

A Quiet Study
The scent of rich vellum and oiled leathers permeates this room. A huge
mahogany desk takes up most of the room. Seated before it is an overstuffed
black leather chair. Upon the desk seems to mostly be journals, maps, and
other documentation of ancient artifacts. The walls of this study are lined
with leather bound books and journals, and one entire wall seems to be
devoted to various layers of maps. The floor is covered with a deep red,
exceptionally plush carpet. Red curtains lined and trimmed with golden
velvet hang over the windows. Wrought iron sconces flickering with magical
flames of light are well-placed throughout the room. Everything in here
seems rare, unique and costly.

**he explains the tattoo**
Glimmering with unpolished depths, this diamond in the rough embodies
a sense of earthly, material beauty. Roughly the size of a small egg,
you can see small offshoots of crystal growing from its facets. Its
surface is dirty, as though the earth it was pulled from still clings
to it, but beneath the dirt you can see a diamond of unsurpassed
quality and beauty, waiting to wrought into a thing of unmistakable
perfection.
A diamond in the rough is a miscellaneous object, made of skin, and weighs 0 pounds 0 ounces.
