Who They Are
Lawrence Thomas is the 212th Duke of New Manchester and the Secretary of the Sivad Defence Ministry.
Description
A rather slender and nimble looking man of apparent Sivadian ancestry. Here is an exceptional specimen, standing just over six and a half feet tall, with a swift athletic build, though he carries himself with decided awareness and care. Despite his slenderness, he moves with the rolling grace of a stud Percheron. His piercing green eyes look alert and intelligent. His Romanesque nose sits like a dark precipice over the thin chasm of his lips and the noble square of his jaw and chin. His head is shaved bald.
On his left ring finger he wears a stylish white gold track link band inside a yellow gold exterior band.
He wears a charcoal short tabard with a black embroidered piley bendy pattern running down it, over a carefully tailored charcoal band collared shirt. He wears crisply pressed black dress trousers bloused over highly shined RNS deck shoes. Pinned on the left side of his collar is a silver =*= symbol and on the right is a small heron. A brilliant blue ceremonial sash issues forth from the embroidered fist of a gauntlet that is sewn into his right shoulder board and runs across his chest to disappear into the hem of his tabard. Around his waist is an fancy black leather scabbard rig with a apparently Florentine setup. On his right and left hips are odd looking pistols.
