The Duke of Ishgard --- About
The Duke can give off a bit of an intimidating aura when first meeting him, tall and still retaining a somewhat noble air (until you get to know him.) He keeps his white hair on the longer side, in a "I made it messy on purpose" kind of style. His eyes are a bright red, though they tend to darken when his mood shifts into anger and he's rarely seen without his glasses. He's quite muscular but still maintains a lithe figure as he still tends to favor Dragoon style fighting despite typically fighting as a red mage. Well-kept, clean, upstanding gentleman. Scars & Markings: His entire body is covered in scars, varying in size and harshness most stemming from his many attempts at death. Burn marks, stab wounds, holes, you name it, he's got it. Two of the scars on his face are from his wife, the other - specifically the one on the side above his brow is from an unfortunate training accident with an ex lover. His hands are especially scarred (and sensitive as a result), for whatever reason he is particularly sensitive about his hands looking the way they do. So he wears gloves almost always.--- Voice: --- Clothing: Typically favors long coats, ties, cravats. Basically fancy shmancy. He can be seen in his under armor sometimes, when he's training however. Typically enjoys tighter clothing, rather than loose-fitting. Rarely not seen wearing a color other than dark red, and favors black/white/gold to accent. Also has a tendency of wearing leather more often than not. Can sometimes be seen wearing his old dragoon armor - but it's typically only when he's drunk, or on rare occasion he dons it to guard someone. ---
