Zephyr Pradox

Appearance
Zephyr was born with long black hair, that he often held up in a bun. His hair started becoming whitish when he was past 20 years old. He now has mostly white hair. He has a scar on his right peck and his whole body is decently-muscled. He has a brown beard and a small moustache. His nose and chin shape is well-defined. He walks confidently wherever he goes, and his clothing normally consists of a comfortable robe. This changes to the royal clothing when in meetings, ceremonies and related events. He carries the Konincklijck Zwaerd with him at all times.

Personality and Demeanor
Zephyr has learned to never blindly trust anyone. He respects everyone's opinions. He likes to talk about Geldish culture, history and language. This becomes very apparent in meetings with other diplomats when they ask about Geltrijck. He normally isn't a very harsh ruler, but when needed, his actions speak volumes. If made angry, Zephyr can become very intimidating. When in a bad mood, his mere presence in the room changes it's atmosphere.

Zephyr is highly-trustable, to the people that are dear to him and to his friends. This doesn't mean he goes around telling the secrets of others however. He holds things said to him to himself, unless the information received could harm the people he loves. H doesn’t hesitate and isn’t afraid of voicing his opinion in the slightest. His kindness makes him very respected in his kingdom, but his ability to take swift action and punish enemies has also proven vital. He is not to be feared most of the time, but when the need arises, he can be very assertive and intimidating, like previously stated. His persuasion and negotiation skills are pristine as well, he has his experiences as a merchant to thank for these two traits.

He is often a person to visit for great advice, his close friends always come to him when they need some guidance. Speaking about topics he doesn’t have a lot of knowledge of, isn’t for Zephyr, he prefers to only advise on topics he has a grasp on. Zephyr is quite attentive, he pays a great deal of attention to his surroundings. He uses a lot of hand gestures to explain himself, he finds body language very important when trying to portray a message. He curses from time to time, mostly using the phrase “Kredon Verdomme” or as most know it, “God damn it”. He isn’t very comfortable showing emotions like love, but as said before, he shows kindness and respect. He isn’t that easy to read and he finds that as an advantage. He makes great use of his ability to look like he is detached from the situation, while he is, in reality, fully concentrated. He smiles often, though most would call it a slight grin. He loves laughing, and does so, a lot when near friends. His favourite pastime is talking to his close friend, like Kadrys van Zyl and Piet GoldenMaen. He also loves writing about history, culture and linguistics. He occasionally makes maps, though not too often.
