Post-punk, modern fusion. Not everyone has the kind of features that a shaved head can enhance. Fortunately, Nathan does, strong features in an appealingly sturdy oval face. His eyes are liquid brown, fringed with the sort of long, thick black lashes that give the illusion of liner, bright and keen beneath straight dark brows. His lips are full and his nose straight and long, hinting perhaps at eastern Europe. His body is lean and finely muscled, a hiker or bicyclist maybe, and he carries himself with an air of easy self-possession. Long, slim hands are well-worn, fingertips hard with calluses..

Nathan's got a uniform. 90% of the time, he'll be wearing black jeans, engineer boots, one or another of a rotating collection of button-down shirts, and a hat of some kind. He also wears what most people would probably consider too damn much jewelry: heavy silver rings, silver and leather bracelets of varying numbers and widths, and a few constant pieces. Among these are a silver pendant engraved with the Indian Om symbol, a necklace of carefully braided thin leather strips strung with black volcanic glass beads and bone pieces carved in the likeness of sleeping cats, and, out of place among all the silver on his hands, a carved bone ring with the head of a wildcat on his left ring finger.

His lips are full and his nose straight and long, hinting perhaps at eastern Europe.  He wears large hoop earrings in both ears, and a suggestion of dark shadow against the medium-light skin of his scalp is the only hint at the color of his hair; his head is shaved bald, leaving him nothing to hide behind.  He carries himself with such an air of easy self-possession that one could be forgiven for failing to notice that he is surprisingly thin.  Long, slim hands are well-worn, fingertips hard with calluses.''

-''It’s a rare day that sees Nathan dressed in anything other than black, with the occasional bit of red to liven things up.  It keeps his wardrobe easy to organize.  He wears heavy silver rings on almost every finger, and an assortment of beaded necklaces; right now, it’s two strands of those little bone skull beads.''<br>
