Character appearance

I'm posting this as I've had the thought that some players have no way of knowing that Sam isn't a short, balding middle-aged man and may have been interacting with their characters as such. In fact, I have no idea what other PC's look like either which is going to be changing my own interactions with them.

Sam is of medium height (Somewhere round 5'10"/5'11") with dark hair, wiry build and looks to be in his young-mid 20's. He wouldn't stand out in a crowd and tends to avoid notice but if observed his movements are swift and economical. He walks head-up and his eyes are constantly assessing his surroundings. In social situations he's not shy, but not an obvious leader. He tends towards few words but can be persuasive and even slightly eloquent when he does speak for longer. He often wears somewhat bulky clothing that may be a little inappropriate in warmer seasons and climates but doesn't seem to sweat even while doing so. For a Werewolf, he is extremely controlled and can even seem placid if you aren't good at reading people.

Andy is nothing particularly remarkable to look at. She carries herself as if her physical form is borrowed from someone else and she's unsure how to pilot it, although she's surprisingly agile when she feels the need. Her hair is always slightly out of order and a light reddish-brown, verging on ginger, and her eyes are a muddy green-hazel. She's on the tall side (172cm-ish) and rather wiry, although this tends to be concealed under fairly conservative clothing. She smiles a lot, but somewhat furtively, as if she's afraid of getting caught. She looks fairly well kept and tends to dress in a fairly understated manner -- even her going-out clothes tend to be in muted colours and conservative cuts. She wears a plain gold ring on her left hand and an incongruous mood ring on the other, so old that the silver has worn off. She usually looks like she's still wearing yesterday's makeup and got dressed without looking at herself in a mirror, a situation slightly assuaged by the fact that most of her clothing is in uniform greens, browns, and blues.

Andy always looks in need of more food and more sleep, and she sounds perpetually slightly hoarse. She comes off fairly snarky at first blush, but if you listen to the words she's saying rather than the dry, uninflected manner in which she speaks them an entirely different story emerges. Despite her exasperated and put-upon exterior, Andy seems strangely prone to episodes of childlike wonder and dweeby enthusiasm, and can abruptly light up seemingly out of nowhere. She's weirdly compelling, despite her interests largely being obscure, incomprehensible, or just plain weird.

Heather Mane, on the occasions Andy appears in that guise, is considerably more polished and carries herself with a good deal more confidence. Like Andy, she tends to dress in a fairly understated manner, but her manner and dress are about as expected for a professional woman -- for all that she seems extremely young. She is typically seen in workwear, stage blacks, or occasionally going-out clothing, situation dependent.

Sabine is rather striking and reasonably tall for a woman. She is slim, athletic, and could easily be described as a yoga bunny. She has a London accent, and is obviously born and bred in the city. She appears to be in her early to mid twenties, has rich brown hair, and hazel eyes.

She is very intimidating in social situations, especially when her guard is down. However, she often puts on a rather ingratiating face when required for negotiations or dealing with everyday people. She freely flirts with people, however she only seems to pursue men. She is very protective of her pack and those in her care.

Vincent is generally unkempt and unfocused (I like to think I costume/RP that reasonably) but also skinny and on the shorter side (which I can't physrep effectively ). Coat seems to keep itself clean but his other clothes tend to have paint on them.

He's weathered and aged somewhat behind his years from his years of living on the streets, but chronologically he's still mid-twenties.

Any accent is obscured by his somewhat off, stilted speech patterns.

Sylvie is a small, delicate-looking girl in her mid twenties; pleasant enough to look at without being striking. She habitually wears a large blue brooch and colourful dress, but those who have worked more closely with her will have noted that the dress is reversible to plain black should subtlety be called for. While Sylvie usually and naturally speaks with the upper class accent of her grandfather, she can switch seamlessly into the speech patterns of a north-London guttersnipe, especially when talking about football. Sylvie appears at home in a wide variety of social situations and with a wide variety of people.

Chris is a short half Chinese half English man in his mid twenties. He is 5 foot tall and around the same build as me. He is usually seen shirtless if he can help it. His is fairly easy on the eyes. His left hand will almost always rest on either his left hip if he is unarmed or the guard of one of his swords. Which he will almost never be seen without.

Kenzie is in her very early twenties. She's rather small, pale, and seems chronically exhausted; she tends to fidget constantly and her eyes are usually wide and darting around as though she's anticipating danger. Her accent is that of a middle-class Londoner but under stress it sometimes shifts to hint at a lower-class origin from somewhere further north.

Like her player, her hair tends to shift between various unnatural shades. Unlike her player, she has no tattoos and only her nostril and earlobes are pierced.
