"I'm sure there's a koan in there somewhere."
Should one lay eyes on Ake one would see little out of the ordinary; a human male of around 20 years of age. This is also mostly accurate, and what Ake himself prefers to classify himself as. He wears mostly loose fit, a hoodie and cargopants, when travelling on his own; which is most of the time.
There are however things that are off about him that may not be appearant for most casual observers.
Should one have an exceptional sense of smell, one might notice that Ake smells a bit like a human, a bit like a devil, and a bit like something from the edges of existence, with a rather large helping of dragon covering him. The scent of dragon isn't part of him, but rather just a strong coated scent due to his time spent pressed against the out- and insides of one. Contrary to what his scent might imply he is not of a mixed lineage but of entirely human stock.
Should one have exceptional vision, and should he be outdoors, one might notice that the reflection of the sky in his pupils shows up wrong, rather than clouds or a night sky there's only falling stars travelling over featureless darkness.
Hidden by his fingerless gloves are a mess of scars on his palms as well as a black ring hidden by the cloth near the knuckle on his left hand. A ring of unknown metal which may ping as unholy or infernal to those sensitive to such. The black metal band sits so tightly around his finger that he's unable to remove it should he even want to.
Covered by the sleeve on his right arms are five scars running from his shoulder all the way down to his wrist, marks left by dragon claws on a human hands. Scars carved by a demi-dragon.
Should one be a telepath and watch his perspective when he sees a mirror, and sometimes other reflective surfaces, one might notice that he sees the reflection of two strange women. One watching him with a blank expression and another watching her.
Random weird stuff:
- He's older than he looks, but not by more than a decade.
- He was once sent back somewhere before he arrived there in the first place.
- He's got mud from several worlds lodged in the sole of his sneakers.
- The last time he tried to hurt someone was when he threw a knife at a death-god.
- He's distrustful towards elves; but he's trying his best to stop being a racist.
- He has slight Eisoptrophobia, for good reason.
