Description: A man with thick toned arms and a paunchy gut. He wears a robe, a symbol of death around his neck, and a lance on his belt. His auburn hair is kept up in a ponytail inside a wide-brimmed hat. He is very pretty but has cold, dead eyes.

Since his mother passed away years ago, his father had doted on him, and he came to think her himself as special and better than other people in town.
