The pale Viera isn't too tall or intimidating in stature, though he keeps a well-toned figure for his size, more focused on keeping himself more nimble and agile. His skin and complexion are more on the soft and smooth side, his hands being well taken care of. The man only really has one scar, located on his stomach from an incident long ago.Silas' hair is a beautiful, vibrant shade of white and also feels very fine and silky to the touch. As time has gone by, he's found a style somewhere between free flowing and somewhat reasonably kempt at medium length, opting for a small braid to the right of his fringe. As for his ears, they never really continued to grow past his sixteenth nameday, coming off as rather short in comparison to standard length for his kin. Due to not wanting to be too scruffy, Silas keeps his face well-shaved to maintain his near-androgenous appearance, complimented by his small mouth, narrow nose and large, violet eyes. The man's two front top incisors are a little longer than the average person's, giving him more of a bunny-like smile when he cracks a grin.

What Might Catch The Eye

Underworld ties: Due to his time working with a small criminal faction in his past, Silas has managed to acqure himself a bit of a reputation in Ul'dah's criminal underworld, making some enemies along the way as one would stepping on other's toes. There is a very realistic chance that if you also happen to be a part of it, You and Silas might share a few mutual friends or enemies even. That being said, he is rather weary of his company until has a good read on them.Gladiator Glory Days: The Sterling Shield used to fight in the Bloodsands back in his hayday to earn his keep and train in being able to protect himself, all while becoming a regular at the sands. If you spent time training there, you might have sparred even once.Gracious Gunsmith: In his time working under his old boss - Balalaika, Silas was taught the fundamentals of crafting firearms of all different calibers that didn't rely on aether to be used like the guns forged in Ishgard. This lead to him taking up a new hobby and fondness for a well-manufactured gun. He might make a comment on your own gun if it catches his eye.Handyman for Hire: Due to a shortage of work on his end lately involving a recent public case against him, the pale Viera has been taking up any sort of work to rebuild his reputation in the eyes of Ul'dah's people. If you seem to have a strange request for help or mutter about a problem, he might be privy to eavesdrop out of curiosity.Versed in Hingan culture:
Due to circumstances he'd rather not get too into detail with, Silas traveled to the far-east and got himself a job for a few years in Kugane, which led him to having quite a wealth of knowledge on culture from working at a tea house, along with stumbling into a few new underground contacts in both the highly distinguished local crime family and Sekiseigumi.Tea Fiend: The pale Viera developed himself a new talent and hobby while abroad in Kugane for a few years - the ability to distinguish what ingredients might work well in synergy within a cup of tea, along with how to prepare the ingredients for drying & processing. He might be willing to offer a sampler or two for people to give a try at home.
