Appearance

Physical Description

Stocky, a little muscle from manual work, but not ripped.

Body Features

Darker brown speckles and rough skin texture. Texture dots get darker closer to hands and feet, looking almost like a mahogony obsidian.

Facial Features

More brown speckles, more like freckles around cheeks.
Eye irises have a subtle glow to them (mostly obscured by goggles).
Hair is glassy like obsidian, which is frizzy and unmanagable when not tied back.

Identifying Characteristics

Besides the physical characteristics of being a gesnai, his hair is a bit unruly for someone of the earth element.
Manys eyes are also more crystalline in pattern, and usually don't glow.

Physical quirks

Hair is extremely uncontrolled when not tied back.
Eyes have a little glow to them that brightens when he's angry or frustrated.
Definitely has RBF.

Apparel & Accessories

Earth tones, green, and lots of brass.
He needs glasses/goggles to see, but they also double as battle protection. Additionally, he wears a bulky toolbelt - senimental value of sorts. And a backpack.

Special abilities

Being an earth genasi, can soften the ground and kick up dust - helping those around him remain hidden (pass without trace).
Can also pass through rough terrain with relative ease.

Mentality

Personal history

Just ask and maybe he'd tell.

Education

Above average from being an obsessive book-nerd.
Also very knowledgeable in many of physical skills: tinkering, lock picking, with lots of knowledge in weapons making.

Employment

Black smith, sometimes selling his upgraded creations in the shop.

Accomplishments & Achievements

Currently, with the party, has made some very unique tools: the electric lute is something he is very proud of.

Failures & Embarrassments

Burning down the Pradzia mages guild - but he will continue to swear it was an accident.
Azel called him insane after he tried to replace the soaps that a handful of rocks allegedly stole.

Mental Trauma

Seeing flesh tornadoes, the return of an evil overlord, and so much death is gonna hurt a lot when he has a moment to breathe - thanks Wyatt!

Intellectual Characteristics

Overthinks and over-complicates many things. Has a hard time relaxing and "shutting off".
Knows many things, but is not very wise. Reckless curiosity sometimes gets the better of him.

Morality & Philosophy

Firm believer in eat the rich
Primarily Kant-style beliefs - treat other's how you want to be treated blah blah blah
Very anti-determinism - there is no "fate" or "destiny" sealing anyone to anything, nothing is set in stone

person.sexuality

Ace
Grey aro - he has the slim chance of liking someone

person.gender_identity

Sardonyx is kinda unfazed by how people perceive him (didn't want to be perceived anyways).
Definitely owns heels.

Known Languages

Primordial
Common
Dwarvish - all the best books on crafting are in Dwarvish

Personality

Motivation

[Something something backstory], and that can't exist if the world is taken over by an evil lich king. If he can learn a thing or two about making advanced, magical weapons along the way - all the better!

Fidgety, always has to be doing something with his hands.
Constantly holding on to his forearms or bag straps, as a fidget.
