His hair was jet black and longer than Kaya’s, smooth and shiny in the sunlight. His skin was pale—not sick or weak—just clean, almost like paper. His eyes were dark and deep, and he had a small fang showing, but it looked more like a sharp canine than a snake’s tooth.

So well-dressed. So polished. So... intentional.
