Outward Appearance

A tall young Man with a gallant poise, his two tell-tale features are his clear gray eyes and a mane of hair, dark as a raven's wing, falling freely down to his shoulder.

 

His height and features suggest he might be coming from the south, though if so, he has clearly spent quite some time travelling Eriador's rugged, wind-swept landscape, judging by the - for a southerner - uncharacteristically light skin tone. 

 

The dark green cloak fastened around his shoulders is weathered and threadbare, but dully kept, held in place by an ornamental silver brooch, shaped in the image of a flaunting swan. The rest of his attire is an unremarkable heavy-leather brigandine, likewise brown and sturdy leather trousers with a mark of a rider attrited on the inner side of his thighs and resilient pair of hiker boots. The occasional gleam from his waist in the light of the sun or fire betrays an ornamental and precious dagger hilt above his right hip.

 

He rarely keeps a larger weapon with him, but when he does, it is usually(in fact, pretty much exclusively) a balanced longsword almost 4 feet(cca 120 cm) in length, its lean blade kept peerlessly sharp and clean. The handle is always wrapped in a grip of treated beast-skin.
