Appearance
Raf is a young man in his late teens or early twenties, with dark hair, a neatly trimmed beard and a lean, athletic build. He has a calm, observant face and the look of someone who is used to outdoor work and physical effort. In the image, he appears in simple, practical clothing suited to coastal labour: a loose tunic, tied at the waist, with sleeves rolled for work. His overall appearance is quiet and capable rather than flashy, and he reads as a practical working man with some natural confidence.
