Description
Built on lean, rangy lines, there is a wiry strength to Aureth that does not so much lend him bulk as give him the understated air of something slim and surprisingly effective -- like a mongoose. A blond mongoose. His fair hair is worn long but usually pulled back in a loose tail at his neck, a dusty gold in hue lightened by premature gray at the temples and threading through its fall that gives it an almost silvery look. His eyes are gray, hinted with blue in certain light or if he dresses for it. His thick, defined eyebrows and neat, well-kept beard are a richer, more brownish-gold than his hair, though both can bleach lighter in summer. His skin is a little weathered and marked by lines at the corners of his mouth and eyes. He tends to freckle. He has a strong jaw and a bold nose, and the faint pinch of a frown at his brow rarely entirely fades. When it does, it is to a wide, brilliant smile that transforms and youthens his face, and invites the observer to join him.

Personality
Restless energy defines Aureth, a hot core of righteousness beneath alternating layers of humor and reserve. Easy charm and frank affection come as readily to him as quick repartee or sharp insult, and he wields them all with the careless acumen of a man who developed conversation as performance art. Keen acuity occasionally blunted by the raw force of an impatient temper, the forge of life has taken him from a pattern of chameleonic social camouflage to an almost reckless forthrightness. A man of deep loyalties to persons over principles, he has flowered in the grip of late blooming faith into a new and fierce purpose.
Background
A younger son of a branch off the main line of the Grayhope family, Aureth was an odd child: quickfingered and resourceful, the middle class child of an artisan with questionable ties, his most frequent punishments were from wandering away from the family and being a focused observer of the human animal. Apprenticed early to an older woman who decided his powers of observation might be useful, she taught him to tell fortunes. When she grew too old to patter convincingly, he eventually inherited some of her customers and made a name for himself as a predictor, a card player and a source of sensible advice to those who knew to ask the right question. Unlucky in love (or resistant to social pressure), he claims he just hasn't met the right girl.
