Arvalis is a male Umbaran, a race also known as the Shadow People, with features best described as sharp. High cheekbones combined with a strong jawline give him a somewhat attractive look by human standards. His thin lips are devoid of pigment, seemingly lacking any color, and twisted into an unnerving smile. His chin and nose respectively taper off into fine points. While most sentients would describe his hair and eyes as being ghastly white, they are in fact not achromatic. In the UV spectrum, whether naturally or through technological means, individuals would see a myriad of colors shining through. His hair is rather long for an Umbaran; but sporting a unique undercut hairstyle. Most days he prefers to keep it swept back, save a rather long fringe being swept to the side.
Personal Image
While Arvalis has a rather delicate appearance, his physique is often understated due to his lean musculature. His body is sculpted akin to a professional athlete, combined with his alabastar skin, he has the appearance a classic marble statue. His body belays an image of someone who is lithe and graceful rather than a physical powerhouse.
If it involves his actions, motives or abilities, Arvalis is guaranteed to lie outright or tell half-truths. He spins a web of lies within lies to ensure everything about himself is kept as secret as possible, forcing anyone to peel away the layers of his misdirections to find the true threat. More often than not Arvalis' words carry a secondary, or even a tertiary meaning, unintentionally misleading those he sees as allies.
As a former member of Taldryan's Secret Intelligence Service, Arvalis has meticulously crafted multiple persona. He seemingly changes personalities as often as other people change their clothes. Arvalis is oblivious to his true personality. While he often times cynically brushes off this fact, deep down he struggles with being a "nobody". If Arvalis is a chameleon who can disguise himself and blend into the background, he also actually is the disguise and the background.
Arvalis is always wearing a smile - he stops smiling so rarely it's always a significant moment when he does so. This gives him an eerie demeanor when combined with his too-calm voice that rarely oscillates or waivers. His pronounced squint and constant grin can offset his true intentions or feelings, making even his allies wary of truly trusting him.
Arvalis is well-spoken individual with a slick Coruscanti accent - formal and polite, but with a rather mocking and facetious undertone. His easy smile, and rudimentary understanding of psychology allows him to cloud other peoples' judgement of him. Those of more cautious natures and keen eyes can often see through this and reveal his true intentions.
Arvalis has an entirely pragmatic and simple approach to combat. There is nothing flashy to his actions, and he will just as easily push someone off a ledge when they aren't looking as he would challenge them to a duel. This mindset often puts him at odds with those that believe in honor and dignity.
Arvalis shows little surprise when an enemy proves to be more powerful than expected, fully realizing the difference between himself and Force-users. Even in such cases he stoically holds his composure, very rarely showing signs of distress. This dispassionate approach often leads to Arvalis feeling alienated from those around him - especially those that are driven by their emotions.
