Idristan Agache The Wounded Healer About
First Impression: Standing at about 6’4”, Idristan is extremely short by Elezen standards. His build is long, lean, and lanky, his face a study in sharp angles and bordering on gaunt. Though he is hardly old, his shoulder length straight hair has already turned pure white, while his eyes are a brilliant shade of light green. His body is covered in scars, though most only see the one that mars one side of his face. It is clear from a glance that he takes pride in his appearance, to the point where some would call him vain. His hair is always neatly tied back, his clothes striking a balance between the latest fashions and function. He can usually be seen wearing at least one or two pieces of jewelry, whether it’s a silver and garnet necklace or a pair of simple silver earrings. Scars & Markings: Idristan possesses numerous scars, from the one that mars his left cheek to the prominent claw marks across his stomach where something apparently attempted to eviscerate him. There are other claw marks marking his chest (though none seem to be as deep), an old burn across his upper back, and numerous scratches across his calloused hands. Voice: Low and smooth, and typically with a hint of either dryness, disdain, or outright sarcasm in his tone. Clothing: If one were to sum it up in one word: fancy. He always strives to look neat and well put-together, his clothes not too outright extravagant but clearly well-made. He favors darker colors, from dark greens to pure black, with hints of gold and silver and the occasional gemstone. He does seem to have some degree of wealth and is not afraid to at least hint at it. At first glance, Idristan seems to embody every negative stereotype about Ishgardians, with an extra dash of cynicism thrown in for flavor. He is aloof and cold, with a sarcastic streak and a tendency towards dry, bitter humor that can occasionally edge into outright cruelty. Though he can be pleasant when the situation absolutely warrants, there’s often a sense that he’s holding something back that makes it hard to tell whether he’s actually being sincere or merely putting on an act.
