Vrenk Glasscairn
Species
Half-Orc
Appearance
Vrenk is a broad half-orc with a glassblower's burn-scarred hands and a surprisingly delicate touch. His skin is deep olive-gray with pale, silvery freckles that catch the light like suspended ash. One tusk is capped in polished brass, while the other is chipped flat from an old accident he refuses to discuss. He moves with a careful, almost priestly economy, except when startled, when he lunges with the reflexes of a street brawler. His left eye is cloudy from furnace glare, but the right is sharp and bright, always measuring reflections in bottles, windows, and weapon edges. He smells faintly of hot sand, lavender oil, and metal filings. The unexpected thing about him is that he wears immaculate embroidered gloves when not working, despite having soot permanently under his nails.
“Measured and warm, with a low rumble that sharpens into crisp technical jargon whenever he discusses craft. He speaks like every word costs money unless he trusts the listener, in which case he becomes surprisingly poetic about heat, fracture lines, and the beauty of a well-made seal.”

Voice
“Low, steady, and practical, with a faint rasp from years of furnace heat. He sounds like someone who has learned to be kind without becoming soft.”
Clothing
A soot-black apron reinforced with brass rivets over a dark green shirt, with stitched pockets full of tools, corks, and tiny labeled vials. He wears soft leather boots, fingerless backup gloves tucked at his belt, and a silvered monocle chain that is decorative only half the time.
Body Language
He stands square-shouldered behind his counter, one palm resting on a glass bell jar as if keeping time with it. When thinking, he tilts his head and narrows one eye, then points with a single finger instead of gesturing broadly. In argument, he folds his arms over his apron and rocks heel to toe like a man bracing against a furnace blast.
