HEY, NORFINBURY! SHOW ME YOUR BODY!

What is your character like face-to-face?

As we know, icons and written text don't always give a clear impression of a character.

Describe what your character is like in person. What is their body type? Do they have any distinctive markings? Do they have an accent or unique kind of voice? Any interesting type of body language? Basically, share anything that you feel other characters would notice about yours if they ran into them in the street. Or, you know, a snow-covered metal house.

♛ describe all the things that icons don't show.
♛ like height, weight, posture, eye color, voice, etc.
♛ do they look different from canon now?
♛ did they get a new haircut or tattoo?
♛ how fabulous is their beard?
♛ do they have new, obvious scars since coming here?
♛ show and tell! enrich the game experience!
♛ remember to put large images behind cuts

Let me title this: A Description of Kunsel
Or: How much headcanon can Nivi shove in here, because SO. LITTLE. CANON. MATERIAL.

Height: 6'0"! According to me, anyway. This is the best side by side shot I was able to grab for Kunsel and Zack, and Zack's 6'3". (Really, I suspect the animators used the same base model for them both, but for the sake of variety, and accounting for Kunsel's helmet, I knocked a couple inches off.)
Weight: Who even knows? He's a buff soldier dude, though, so heavy enough!
Eye color: Eerily bright blue, almost seems to glow. (Or maybe actually glow. Canon's not 100% clear on this, but people remark on SOLDIER eyes all. the. time.) There's only a hint of the hazel left from before he got his enhancements. (Reference pictures, because Kunsel's probably look similar to Zack's.)
Hair: Oh boy, more head canon! Kunsel's hair is light brown, and nowhere near as crazy as Zack's. This is what it looked like before he came to Norfinbury, so obviously it will have grown out a bit.
Beard: Kunsel's got a cheap disposable razor that he's been babying, so he actually doesn't have a beard! He frequently has a five o' clock shadow, though, proving that if he ever did grow a beard, it probably wouldn't be that impressive.
Posture: He's got pretty good posture, though sometimes he slouches just a little when he's checking his tablet. Otherwise, he's upright and moving with the confidence of a trained SOLDIER.
Voice: Have a YouTube link!
Differences from canon: He has lost some weight on the snowhell diet, leaving him a little wiry, though nowhere near scrawny or starved-looking yet. He's got his standard issue SOLDIER Second uniform and helmet, black Norfinbury coat, and he wears a satin bathrobe wrapped around a bath towel as a scarf. His sword harness is (somewhat awkwardly) strapped on over his coat, and that's where he holsters his butcher knife.
Scars: I'm sure he's got plenty, even with magic, potions, and advanced SOLDIER healing. I mean, you just don't fight monsters and bad guys on a regular basis or emerge from a war without at least a few of those things.

Also 100% a cutie beard or not

For real, though, I love hearing about your headcanon for him!

You wouldn't say that if he actually tried to let that beard grow out. S c r a g g l y.

But aw, I'm glad my headcanon is so well received. Because seriously, there's no getting out of it. XD
