The prodigal known as Nash is trying to put a life of violence behind him. A lifetime of war and all its carnage has left the younger man seeming unnaturally aged, as he has come to Arx to put the horrors of war long behind him, and hoping to make his way as a menial laborer or beggar in the Lower Boroughs. Extremely reluctant to speak about his past, the prodigal looks to the future and atonement for the life he's left behind. While vague about his past, the prodigal tries to eke out a living as a trainer, teaching swordplay basics and other subjects that point to an unfortunate history.

Dark, tousled locks swoop across broad cheekbones so high they catch the light and showcase his eyes and thick, feathery eyebrows. Those eyes are a deep, soulful brown, with a heavy monolid hiding their almond sweetness behind a transfixing little fold at the inner corner. In short, he's a striking man - almost beautiful, and possessed of the sort of calm demeanor that invites quiet study. His smiles are easy enough, but they do not invite study; the rangy, ready competence apparent in his body also discourages inquiry.

Outwardly warm and friendly, with a determination to do right by most he meets, he truly strives to see the best in everyone who enters his life. He deeply believes there's something worth saving in nearly everyone, even if they themselves might not see it. Forsaking violence to the point of pacifism, there's a haunted quality about Nash, a sadness behind his eyes that he strives to hide and not trouble others with.
