Physical Description | Esgou is a lean, trim man. His hair is thick which he wears neatly slicked back in an elegant wave from his widow's peak. He sports a trim, pencil thin mustache which he is secretly proud of. Although his facial features are sharp, his eyes are a window to his soul. Most often his deep brown eyes hold a slight look of imperiousness, only indicating the high standards he holds not only himself to, but his hold staff as well. Only under careful scrutiny and in rare circumstances, will one find the gentle and soulful side showing in the eyes of the Floria River Hold Steward. |
