Show Me Your Body!
What is your character like face-to-face?
♢ describe all the things that icons don't show. ♢ like height, weight, posture, eye color, voice, etc. ♢ do they look different from canon now? ♢ do they have scars or unusual clothing? ♢ show and tell! enrich the game experience! |

There's not a lot of description of him in the books appearance-wise! So I go with a mix of his icons (Ben Barnes as Prince Caspian in The Dawn Treader specifically) and his comic appearances. Hopefully he's gonna have more comics appearances when the Death of Dulgath graphic novel comes out.
ʙᴀsɪᴄs
Height: 5'3 (which is headcanon since all they say in the books is that he's shorter than Hadrian)
Weight: 130ish pounds
Hair Color: Dark brown, almost black
Hair Style: To his shoulders when it's down, but it's a 50/50 chance that it'll be tied up and back in a ponytail
Eye Color: Blue!
Facial Features: Royce is typically described in the books as having "sharp, elegant features, dark hair, and dark eyes". Things like "cold eyes, expressionless face, and [a] curt manner" are also used to describe him. Several times people mention his "cold, dead eyes", plus shit like, "a man accustomed to killing has the look of a wolf - empty of soul and hungry for blood" and like eight more times of describing he has eyes like a wolf. He's also got a beard, which is like his icons but maybe a bit scruffier. He can't grow it past that because he's a half-elf. He doesn't have pointy ears! They're maybe a bit pointier than humans but not enough that you could tell he's an elf. Also, I promise he's not like, as undead looking as he is in those comic panels, idk what the fuck the artist was doing.
Body: He's slender and fit. He's got long, deft fingers and he's exactly what you might imagine a tiny assassin would look like. He's got a tattoo of a black diamond on his hip, and there's a brand on his shoulder of the letter M.
Clothing: Royce is practically part cloak. You can see it in the pictures up there, the thing swallows him. 95% of the time he is hiding in that thing doing his best to look menacing. Underneath it he's got a black tunic and simple black pants, boots made for climbing/traveling and leather gloves. Nothing fancy, because he's pragmatic as hell.
Posture: Small and hunched. He's very defensive, curled like he's ready to attack anything that might threaten him.
Voice: If you've ever seen Critical Role, I imagine Royce's accent and tone to be very similar to Vax's. Kind of a low drawl, tinged British and posh-y.

He hasn't changed that much! The normal wear and tear after 4.5 months in snowhell. Royce can be scary still, and that's the posture he tries to put off most of the time, but it probably isn't hard to tell that he feels dead inside. His MN poisoning is depression level three, he's lost a lot of friends and had to kill his wife in this last event (which is a SUPER BIG DEAL past the fact that she's his wife) and now he's kind of just apathetic. He's definitely malnourished and small, and he probably is shivering like most of the time. He didn't weigh a whole lot to begin with, so if you ever catch him with his shirt off you'll probably see his rib cage. Royce looks pretty haggard and pale and tired.
He's also got a few gray hairs but don't tell anybody, because that's a thing he is pointedly ignoring. He's a half elf, he's not supposed to get gray hairs, okay, fuck this place.
