Distinguishing Features:	He is of compact stature, with an agile, well-conditioned physique suited to speed and sustained exertion rather than mass. Valkaenar's features bleed through the human guise: his supernatural beauty and grace have been remarked upon by both soldiers and clergy through the ages.
Notable Gear:	A sword is always at his hip; usually a slightly curved katana-like blade. Sometimes carried (always functional) gifts or used weapons more suited for the specific combat role required of him. His armor was replaced as needed and though it matched, it was a hodgepodge of centuries of differing craftsmanship styles. He always replaced his ceremonial armor at the same time he did his combat armor and ensured that even ceremonial armor was fully functional.
