Cillian McEoyn "Ian"

[Cillian]

Cillian has a large frame--even for a Nord at 6’7” and his body is filled out and burly. The muscles on his frame are thick and strong, but he isn't ripped to the point of having no body fat. His muscles are those of man who works hard, trains hard, and plays hard.



The armor he wears is red and gray. It is composed of plate pauldrons, interconnecting plate chest pieces, a thick chainmail coat, and leather gloves, belt, and boots. It fits him well and he can clearly move while wearing the set. Over the years he had added various 'trophies' to adorn his armor. Skulls, bones, teeth, and talons have been forged into his appearance. His left ear is always adorned with a black-hoop earring that has a small skull at the base.



Along his belt is numerous packs and pouches which carry an assortment of alchemical ingredients and holy relics. Notable of these are an archaeological kit, one that looks well used with small brushes and shovels. 


His skin is fair, and light and his face has a small bit of freckles around his nose, but one would only notice that if they were closely examining his face. His skin is thick and calloused especially on his hands and relatively dense hair covers most of his body (think of a lumberjack who has worked outside hand chopping trees for years). His hair is a soft auburn hue which borders on being strawberry blonde. It is long and often pulled back into a ponytail or tucked as best it can into a headband.



His face is strong and youthful. Typically, his face is covered in a reddish stubble—never quite a beard and never quite clean shaven. He has no gross distinctions on his face other than the bit of freckles and most would consider him attractive, but not overly so. His eyes are distinctive, a deep swirl of blue which sometimes seem lively and revealing, but other times seem dull and distant. His right hand is missing the pointer finger, it was clearly cut cleanly--likely not an accident.



He has a deep, strong, and confident voice (think Kevin Conroy “Batman: The Animated Series”). He carries himself with a brooding confidence, walking tall, powerful, and imposing.



Lastly, his weaponry commonly consists of a lighter, one-handed weapon (though it might still be large and heavy to most), and his all-important shield. Based on the damage it usually sports, he uses it often, and not just for himself.
